Two days later Kayla was getting ready for bed when there was a knock at the door. She glanced to Sam, who pulled out his gun before going to answer it. A young woman stood on the other side, her expression spit attitude and she shoved a paper into his hands before waltzing into the room.

"Proof. There's no one in this body but me."

"What?" He looked at the paper, discharge papers for a coma patient.

"You wanted me to be all righteous about this body thing and I made sure the spirit was gone before I took it. It was open vacancy, are you happy now?"

Kayla was a little thrown off, that was damn near righteous, especially for Ruby. "What are you doing here?"

"I've heard you two are making quite a run." She noted that only one bed in the room had been slept in. "I've even heard the term sadistic."

"We haven't been sadistic." Kayla corrected. "Persistent maybe."

"Look, I can't get Dean back. But I can help you kill Lilith."

That caught Sam's attention. "You want me to use my psychic whatever it is."

"I want you to use your gift, Sam. You can harness your mind and do anything, you have no idea how powerful you can be and you can use it for good! Hell even if you only used it to kill Lilith, think of how much good that would do! How many people you would save!"

He wasn't concerned about saving people. He wanted revenge. "Dean didn't want me to use it."

"Well Dean's not here to fight Lilith, you are."

He looked at Kayla for an answer.

She hesitated. "I don't know Sam…it was pretty much his dying wish."

"Technically his dying wish was to take care of you and the Impala."

Kayla rolled her eyes. "He also said to remember what he taught you and that includes," she turned to Ruby, "no offense, that demons can't be trusted."

"Sam if you would have done this before you could have saved your brother. Don't make the same mistake twice."

"We don't know that for sure." Kayla argued.

Sam sighed, a hundred things running through his mind. He turned back to Kayla. "But if…" he stopped, looking at Ruby. "Can we have a minute?"

She held her hands up. "Tell you what, this is what I want. I want to help you train, to use your power to defeat Lilith or any other evil son of a bitch you happen to have a problem with. By the time you're done, you'll be able to kill me before I can think to run. When you have the chance to meet up with Lilith, you will need this. I'll give you the night to think about it, and be back tomorrow." She patted his cheek. "You guys don't have too good a night now huh?"

Kayla watched her walk out. "Dean would be furious."

"Dean would be alive. Am I supposed to pass that up again?"

"He was just so against it, why would you do something he was so hell bent on you not doing?"

"Because I can still use it to get to Lilith, the whole reason he's gone. I can still get revenge. Tell me you don't want to make her pay."

She grimaced. "Of course she should pay. She should suffer but…"

"Then I should do this."

"You don't know what all she wants to teach you."

"Just because she teaches it to me, doesn't mean I have to use it. Give me some credit."

Kayla nodded but she was still so nervous about the whole thing. "I just don't know if we can trust her."

"I don't trust her. But if she can teach me something that can kill Lilith, or that might help get Dean back…"

The idea conquered her arguments and she sighed. "Yeah, then you should do it. Just, use your judgment."

"Of course." He yawned and rubbed his face. "So I'll tell her tomorrow."

"Who knows," she smirked. "Maybe you'll end up with powers like Andy's."

"Andy was pretty cool. Poor kid."

As they had for the last few weeks, they finished their nightly ritual and got into bed without a discussion. Sam admittedly still felt a tug of guilt about it, but when Kayla took her place against his chest the chaos of his despair was manageable. It reminded him why he should get up to fight another day.
