DEAN TO EARTH
I decide to drive straight through to Texas, over a ten hour drive from where we started but Dean sleeps the entire time. I know as soon as we stop I have to hydrate him.
We make it to Texas I'm not even sure where we are but I pull over at the first descent motel I see. I'm exhausted and I have to worry whether or not I will be able to get Dean to settle again.
I get him into the room and I lead him to the bathroom to see if he needs to use it. His eyes roll up to meet mine and I can't help but grin at him. He's got this no matter how fucking sick he is.
I stand close by so that he can lean on me and he does as soon as he's done.
I lead him to his bed and make him sit up long enough to drink Gatorade and take some ibuprofen.
"Why is my mind all fucked up Sammy?" He asks hoarsely.
"I don't know Dean but I'll help you every way that I can."
He lets out a moan of intense pain and his eyes roll, he falls back stiffly onto the bed and thrashes.
"Dean!"

I'm being dragged down into a pit of pain and darkness. Whoever that bitch that has been haunting me is laughing trying to get me but she's desperate now she knows that I can be saved and she's going to do what she can to keep that from happening.
"You're not going to make it." She taunts me. "You belong to me." She twists her fingers and I feel as if my insides are being pulverized and I scream.
"Daddy fight." I hear in my head. "Turn the pain daddy."
"I don't know how." I push through gritted teeth.
"Sammy needs you daddy."
My eyes flow open. "Leave my brother alone you fucking bitch."
I don't know how I pull it off but I'm standing facing this woman off now and she's more than a little shocked.
"Mommy's going to save you."
The woman tries to get me down again but it's not working and she fades away in an angry swirl of smoke.
If there is a baby there is a mommy and a flash of visions fly through my mind.
I know my life has been fucked up since I was four but getting someone pregnant and not remembering is a whole new level of Winchester fucked up luck.

Dean is fighting that invisible foe again thrashing in pain and then suddenly impossibly for a man that has been so sick he's standing in front of me in a protective stance yelling. "Leave my brother alone you fucking bitch."
I almost laugh only my brother can come back from anything to take care of his Sammy.
Whatever he's facing off must leave because his stance relaxes and he grabs his head in both hands stumbling. I reach to keep him steady.
Green intense eyes suddenly lock with mine. "Who is she Sam? Who is the mother of my child?"
"Dean I…."
"Please don't lie to me….." He grabs my shoulders.
"I'll show you in the morning." I whisper.
"We're in Earth?"
"We will be in the morning."
His body sags against me and I lead him to the bed where he falls back and is instantly asleep.
I sit on my bed and run my hand over my face taking a deep breath. Tomorrow is going to be one hell of a day as we haven't had our share of those right?

"Dean?"
I hear Sam calling to me and I force my eyes open.
"It's time." He says.
"Shower." I push out. I'm not about to go anywhere smelling like I do.
"Sure bro come on let me get your clothes ready and then I'll help you in there."
He sits me up and I watch him get what I need.
"I'll help you shave." He says casually.
I don't argue I just don't have it in me whatever happens today is going to drain me completely.
He helps me to the bathroom and I tell him that I want to shave first. I lean against the counter and Sam leans in closely as he puts on the shaving cream.
Another round of memories slam through my head. Making love to someone who I can't see, being a vampire, locking eyes with my brother when I coming so hard I feel it even now and he's right there with me.
"Um Sammy have we had a threesome that I should be told about?"
Sam turns thirteen shades of red. "What?! No Dean even you wouldn't…I wouldn't let….it wasn't like that." He finally manages.
"So how was it Sammy?" I can't help it I love to see my little brother flustered.
"Damn it Dean stop it." He huffs.
"That good huh?" I smirk.
"Fuck you." He growls.
"Well somebody was that's for sure."
Sam snickers at that, he never stays mad at me for long. "I think you'll remember everything later."
"Why did I forget in the first place Sam? Why did you let me?"
"She was trying to protect you…so was I." He sighs and he starts to shave slow and easy.
"From what?"
He locks eyes on mine.
"That's something you have to take up with her."
"What's her name?"
"You called her Beau but she has been going by Arandi lately to cover her tracks."
"Arandi Remington?" I ask.
Sam quirks an eyebrow. "How did you know that?"
"Honestly I don't know." I sigh, I think I like someone else shaving me it's so relaxing.
"Shower and hopefully all this will finally make sense and you'll start to get better." Sam says with a reassuring smile.
"Love is a battlefield." I say with a crooked smile.
"Leave Pat Benatar out of this one dude." He chuckles.
"Hit me with your best shot."
"Lame Winchester should have been your name."

It's not hard to find Beau's place she has adored the beach her whole life and now she is the furthest she could get from it.
Good cover but apparently not good enough.
Dean looks as if he's about to hyperventilate he hates not knowing things and the fucking thing of it is that he knows everything it's just caught up in his mind.
"Let me talk to her first." I tell him.
He nods.
I go to the small cottage and I knock on the door.
She opens it and doesn't seem one bit surprised to see me.
She is very pregnant now and she looks past me. "Does he remember?"
"He's getting bits and pieces."
"He's going to be so mad." She sighs. "If I had known our baby was going to pull him back…."
"The baby is pulling him back? Vampires don't have powers."
"Assuming that he is a vampire. But didn't Dean tell me once that you had powers."
"Yeah powers that were influenced by demons." As soon as the words leave my mouth I feel overwhelming dread. "Demons."
"Technically my baby is a Winchester so you make the conclusions." She says way calmer than I feel.
"Beau?" Dean appears behind me.
"Dean." She says softly showing the first emotion.
Dean slowly walks up to her and gently touches her face looking into her eyes.
She pulls him down into a kiss. Dean gasps and falls to his knees, his eyes roll and he falls to his back seizing hard.
I fall to my own knees trying to hold him.
"He's remembering." She says softly touching her extended belly.
I nod and wait for it to end.

Every detail of my time with Beau slams into my head literally and I feel myself falling.
My body is trembling violently as each memory inserts itself back in my head playing in vivid color.
How could I so easily forget someone I love so much? Why would she want me to especially when she's pregnant? I feel somewhat betrayed but I won't flip out until I hear her reasons.
Right now as I'm flashing from one memory to the next I begin to realize that I'm not alone. That bitch is back trying to get me while I'm down only she doesn't know that Dean Winchester now whole again isn't going down without a fight.
My eyes fly open and I face her suddenly I'm floating feeling a surge of energy that shocks me but feels awesome.
I feel as if my eyes are on fire as I look at her and I see fear in her eyes.
"That's impossible." She screeches and tries to leave but I've got her and I reach for her and somehow I have her without touching her.
"You should have left well enough alone." I say to her and I feel a burst of energy fly from my eyes and she screaming in flames and she's gone, for good this time.
I say words in Latin and I begin to spin rapidly and I think of a figure skater as I spin. I have no idea what the hell is happening but I'm not afraid.
Smokes pulls in from all around me and I hear screams and growl, it takes me a few minutes to realize that I'm killing other monsters, that somehow I'm pulling them toward me an getting rid of them so easily.
I always wished hunting was easier well damn here I have it.

Holding Dean down during his seizure like episode is something else but when he suddenly flies into the air and hovers above us I fall flat on my ass and I think he's been possessed.
I instantly start to recite the exorcism but he only looks at me and smiles and then he's facing something else.
I see his hand come up and then I hear screams and for a split second I see the bitch that has been making him so sick as she dies for good finally.
I'm stunned at the power that my brother seems to possess and power shoots from his eyes.
He begins to speak in Latin and then he's spinning and I don't even know what to do now.
I get up ready to fight when creatures of every kind just seem to appear out of nowhere but Dean has no problem taking care of them.
"What the fuck?" I mumble as I watch in awe. Why couldn't hunting always be this easy?
Dean stops spinning and settles back to the ground in a crouch.
He looks at me as he stands straight to his full height and I swear he has never looked as intimidating as he does right now.
"What the fuck Dean?" I say.
He smiles that cocky smile that sends a wave of relief through me because the means that he's back to as normal as he can be and apparently this shit isn't freaking him out.
Not that it would because we have been through some freaky shit. The stories we could tell and maybe someday we will tell them.
He moves towards Beau. "Please tell me that you weren't going to keep my child from me."
"Dean I didn't want you to ever have to face having to hunt your own child."
"I couldn't…"
"I got pregnant while we were still vampires, only as my pregnancy progresses I've realized that it is not all about vampires."
"Psychic, he's psychic." Dean says.
"I guess so since he brought you here." Beau rubs her belly.
Dean smiles fondly as he reaches out and does the same. He closes his eyes. "I don't understand." He whispers and opens his eyes. "Arandi Remington?"
Beau smiles. "This is one story that is going to knock your boots off baby."
