"Kyra, sweetie wakey wakey, you've been out for ages" a male voice said.
Kyra blinked opened her eyes and looked around, she was in a garden. Surrounding her were the most brightly coloured flowers she'd ever seen. Sitting cross legged next to her was the man from her last dream.
"I'm dreaming again aren't I?" she asked and he nodded.
"Yep, but look at the bright side, you get to talk to me" he said.
"Are you going to be in every one of my dreams?" Kyra asked sitting up.
"Well that depends" he said reached forward and pulling grass out her hair.
"Depends on what?"
"Depends on weather you need me or not"
"Weather I need you? Look dude I don't even know who you are" Kyra said crossly.
"My name is Gabriel" he said standing up.
"Gabriel, like the angel" Kyra asked getting up as well.
"If you put it like that then yes" he said looking over his shoulder at her.
"Why is an angel, following me?" Kyra asked, she could hardly believe angels exist let alone having one watching her.
"Lets just say that the big man upstairs wants to keep a close eye on you" Gabriel said.
Kyra looked down at the floor. "Why?" she asked
"Honey if I understood half of what that man said" Gabriel said placing a hand on her shoulder. "All I know is that I've been assigned to you and your not going to die on my watch" he said and clicked his fingers.
Kyra's eyes shot open and she sat up, she immediately choked on the tubes and pipes that were down her throat.
"DOCTOR!" someone shouted.
Before anyone had arrived Kyra had pulled the tubes from her throat and was in a coughing fit. She leant over the side of the bed and someone produced a tub just in time for her to vomit into. Once she'd finished being sick she looked up and saw Sam.
"Sammy!" she exclaimed and wrapped her arms around his neck. He put his arms around her back and held her tightly.
"Ky, I thought I was gonna loose you" Sam said as he pressed his face into her shoulder.
"What happened?" she asked.
"A demon ran us off the road" he replied.
"What about Dad and Dean?" Kyra asked pulling away.
"Dad's asleep, Dean though. He got hurt pretty bad" Sam said, Kyra could see the tears in his eyes.
"Find my clothes Sam" she said and he nodded.
The pair raced their way to where Dean as lying in a bed. The doctors followed and tried to stop Kyra.
"Please you've just woken up from a coma, you need to rest" they kept telling her.
"I'm fine, just fix my brother" she kept replying.
They came to a stop next to Dean; he was all scratched and bruised and had various pipes and needles sticking into him.
"Dean!" Kyra whispered and rushed to his side. She leant on the bed and stroked his forehead with her thumb.
"What the hell you doing dude, wake up" she whispered as tears sprung to her eyes.
Sam stood behind her, just looking at Dean's frozen body. The beeping heart monitor seemed to be the only thing assuring them that Dean was still alive.
"Your Father's awake" a doctor said coming into the room. "You can go see him if you like"
"Doc what about my brother?" Sam asked.
"Well he's sustained serious injury, blood loss, contusions to his liver and kidney but it's the head trauma I'm worried about. There are early signs of cerebral edema"
"Well what can we do?" Sam asked meanwhile Kyra stayed silent.
"Well we won't know his full condition till he wakes up. If he wakes up…" the doctor said slowly.
"If what do you mean if, off course he's going to wake up" Kyra said crossly and Sam held his hand out to tell her to be quiet.
"If?" he questioned.
"I have to be honest most people with his injury wouldn't have survived this long. He's fighting very hard but you need to have realistic expectations son" the doctor said to Sam. He then looked at Kyra.
"You can go around expecting miracles"
Kyra looked up at Sam who looked down at her. The doctor gave them a nod and then left the room.
"Lets go talk to Dad" Sam said and rushed out the room. Kyra kissed Dean's head quickly and followed Sam down the hall.
When she eventually found the right room she saw her Dad passing Sam a credit card.
"Give them my insurance" he told Sam.
"Elroy Mcgillicuddy?" he asked looking at the name on the card.
"And his three loving kids" John added, he then noticed Kyra standing in the doorway.
"Sweetheart" he said and Kyra rushed over to him. She practically leapt up onto the bed and in his arms. She started to cry and he hugged her tighter.
"I'm so scared Dad" she sobbed.
"It's okay, everything going to be alright" he said.
After a few minutes of hugging Kyra got up and moved over to the window, all the stress was giving her a headache.
"So, what else did the doctor say about Dean?" John asked.
"Nothing" Sam said shaking his head.
Kyra folded her arms and started to chew her thumb nail, she stared nervously out the window. Was Dean going to be okay? If not then what were they going to do? Could she cope wit his death? How would Sam cope? Was Adam okay? How was Gabriel going to affect her life? So many questions with no answers.
"Look if the doctors won't do anything then we'll have to. That's all" Sam said. "I don't know, I'll find some hoodoo priest and lay some mojo on him and…"
"We'll look for someone" John said.
Sam nodded.
"But Sam, I don't know if we're gonna find anyone"
"Why the hell not?" Kyra asked breaking out her trance.
"Why not?" Sam also interjected "I found that faith healer before"
"Alright, that was one in a million"
"So what, we just sit here with our thumbs up our ass?" Sam asked crossly.
"No, I said we'd look" John said getting irritated. "I'll check under every stone"
There was silence as the three lingered in their own thoughts.
"Where's the colt?" John suddenly asked.
"You can't be serious" Kyra said stepping forward. "A gun, you're asking about a stupid gun?"
"It's not just a gun Ky" John said and looked back at Sam. "Where is it?"
"Your son is dying and you're worried about the colt?" Sam asked with the same tone of voice as Kyra.
"We are hunting this demon and maybe its hunting us too that gun maybe our only card" John said.
"It's in the trunk. They dragged the car to a yard of I-83" Sam sighed.
"You gotta clean out that trunk before some junk man sees what's inside"
"I already called Bobby, he's like an hour out. He's gonna tow the Impala back to his place" Sam said.
"Alright" John nodded "You and Kyra go meet up with Bobby. You get the colt and bring it back and watch out for hospital security"
"I think I got it covered" Sam said.
"I'm staying here" Kyra said.
"Ky, do as your told" John sighed.
"No, I'm not a kid anymore. I'm staying here weather you like it or not. Besides Dean might wake up" she said.
"Hey" John said as Sam got up to leave. "Here, I made a list of things I need. Have Bobby pick em up" he said handing some paper to Sam.
"Acacia, oil of Abramelin" Sam said and Kyra rolled her eyes.
"Not pants and socks then" she sighed turning back to the window.
"What's this stuff for?" Sam asked.
"Protection" John replied.
Sam nodded. "Hey Dad" he said just as he got to the door "You know the demon he said he had plans for me and children like me. You have any idea what he meant by that?"
"No, I don't" John said quietly.
As Sam left Kyra shuddered, she suddenly felt tense, angry and suspicious. She looked over to the opposite corner of the room.
"You alright" John asked.
"Yeah" she nodded sitting on the edge of the bed.
She spent around half an hour talking to John, he asked her how Adam was doing and answered her questions about what had happened the past few months. She then went down the hall and sat with Dean for a further half an hour.
Feeling faint from the stale hospital air she decided to go outside. The hospital had a small area that was presumably the garden; she sat down on the bench and closed her eyes. She laughed to herself and smiled.
"I can't believe I'm doing this" she said and took in a deep breath "Gabriel, hey, uh, can we talk?" she said and opened one eye. She couldn't see him so closed her eye again.
"I don't know what to do" she continued "Dean can't die"
"Who said he can't die, he's only human after all" a voice said from behind her. She spun around and saw Gabriel standing behind her. He smiled and walked around and sat next to her.
"So what do you want to talk about?" he asked.
Kyra sighed, she looked at her hands. "I'm not sure" she said.
"Well you can't just call me for no reason Kyra. As much as I like seeing you I do have other fish to fry" he said.
"Oh" she said "Sorry"
"So let me guess, you want me to save Dean" he said and Kyra looked up at him shocked.
"You can?" she asked.
"I saved you didn't I?" he said and Kyra looked away. "That's it, figure it out" Gabriel said leaning back on the bench.
"Did I die in the crash?" she asked.
"BINGO got it in one" Gabriel said clapping his hands.
"I died?" Kyra mumbled.
"But your alive now" Gabriel assured her. "Now, you'd better get back inside"
"What about Dean?" Kyra asked and Gabriel stood up.
"I'm your guardian angel Ky, not Dean's. Let fate take its course" he said and then disappeared. Kyra could faintly hear the flap of wings.
"What if I don't like fate?" Kyra mumbled and then headed inside.
Before she went to talk to her Dad she diverted into Dean's room. He was still lying in the same position. Kyra sat on the bed and covered his hand with hers.
"Please, don't leave me" she whispered and then John wheeled into the room. Kyra was a little taken aback to the sight of him in a wheelchair.
"Hey" she said wiping tears from her face.
"Hey darling" he said moving to the end of the bed.
John didn't say anything so Kyra stayed quiet, she could tell when he needed alone time.
A nurse came into the room and looked at John.
"What are you doing out of bed?" she asked him.
"I just, wanted to see my son" he replied.
"Dad, you need rest too" Kyra said. She got up and walked around the back of the chair. She started to wheel him slowly back to his own room.
"Your gonna get into bed and rest" Kyra said.
"Well doesn't look like I'm gonna have much choice" John smiled.
"Not with nurse Kyra around" Kyra smiled.
She then leant over and whispered in his ear. "Do you think we'd get in trouble if we chair surfed down the hall?" she asked and John laughed.
"Kyra you're a grown woman now, not a child" he said as they turned into his room.
"I can still be a kid" she said as she helped in lie down, not long had he been settled when Sam walked in. Kyra knew her brother well enough to be able to tell that he had his angry face on. He had a green duffle bag slung over his shoulder. He walked over to the window and looked out.
"You're quiet" John said.
"Sam" Kyra asked hesitantly.
He walked over to the bed and threw the bag down; it hit the floor with a very loud thud.
"Think I wouldn't find out?" he asked John crossly.
"Find out what?" Kyra asked sitting forward in the chair next to the bed.
"What are you talking about?" John asked.
"That stuff from Bobby!" Sam shouted crossly pointing at the bag "You don't use it to ward of a demon, you use it to summon one. Your planning on bring the demon here aren't you? Having some stupid macho showdown!"
"I have a plan Sam" John said.
"That's exactly my point!" Sam shouted "Dean is dying and you have a plan, you know what you care more about killing this demon than saving your own son!"
"Don't so this, do not tell me how I feel. I am doing this for Dean!" John shouted.
"Please don't argue" Kyra tried to shout above the noise but her voice was no where near as loud as the two men. "This is not going to help Dean"
She got up and walked around to where there was a glass on a table, she thought twice about throwing it in someone's face but she couldn't decide whose.
"How, how is revenge gonna help him?" Sam shouted "You're not thinking about anybody but yourself. It's the same selfish obsession"
"Don't do this…" Kyra heard inside her head, she was sure it sounded like Dean. She looked around even though she knew he was still unconscious a few rooms down.
"I thought it was your obsession too, this demon killed your Mother, killed your girlfriend" John said pointing a finger at Sam "And it was probably the one that killed Trina" John said looking at Kyra. "You begged me to be part of this hunt!" he yelled. "Now if you killed that god damn thing when you had the chance none of this would have happened!"
"It was possessing you Dad; I would have killed you too!"
"Yeah and your brother would be awake!" John retorted.
"Quit shouting!" Kyra yelled.
"Shut up both of you…" Kyra heard Dean's voice again. She felt a cold shiver and wrapped an arm around her waist.
"Go to hell" Sam said.
"I should have never taken you along in the first place. I knew it was a mistake!" John shouted.
"I SAID SHUT UP!" Dean shouted and the glass flew from the table in-front of Kyra and smashed on the floor. Kyra screamed, she wasn't sure weather it was because of the smashing glass or because she heard Dean inside her head. Was she going finally going mad?
Both John and Sam looked at the broken glass.
"Dude I full on Swayze'd that mother…" Dean said.
Kyra's eyes went wide. She then ran out the room and raced outside. Once she'd got around the corner she leaned against the wall and was sick again.
"What's the problem now?" a voice that Kyra was getting used to asked. She stood up straight and looked at Gabriel.
"What have you done to me?" she asked.
"I gave you a sixth sense. If you get what I mean" he said.
"You mean 'I see dead people' sixth sense?" she asked.
"Not quite see but hear them, definitely" Gabriel said side-stepping her sick. "Now off you go" he said and Kyra suddenly felt a tugging sensation in her stomach. She closed her eyes and when she opened them she was back inside the hospital.
"Thanks for the lift" she mumbled and rushed back to Dean's room. When she got there Dean was still in the bed tied to all the machinery. She walked to his side and looked at his still face.
"Are you, there?" she asked, not really knowing what to say. There wasn't an answer and she sat on the bed and covered her face with her hands. "I'm loosing it" she whispered.
The heart monitor then started to go crazy. Kyra looked up and stood.
"DOCTER, HELP, NURSE" she yelled and an all manner of medical people came running. She was pushed backwards to the door; she covered her mouth with her hand and didn't try to stop her tears. "Come on Dean" she whispered. Sam then ran towards her.
"Sam" she said and he put an arm around her. They watched as the doctors shocked Dean's heart into action again. The younger siblings watched as their elder brother fought for his life.
"No, come on" Sam said shaking his head.
Kyra then felt cold again, she turned and looked behind Sam's shoulder.
"You get the hell away from me, stay back!" she heard Dean's voice again. She pressed herself into Sam as she tried to hide from the voice.
"I said get back!" Dean's shout echoed in her head.
"Kyra" Sam said and she looked up at him. "Did you hear something?"
"Dean" she said and Sam slowly nodded.
They both turned back to Dean's body. The heart monitor then started to beep again and they sighed in relief.
"We have a pulse, we're back into sinus rhythm" one of the nurses said.
"Oh thank god" Sam sighed.
As the doctors dispersed Kyra headed back into the room and sat down in the chair. She crossed her leg over and rested her head back. Sam stayed in the hallway, staring at Dean's body.
Sam left her for a few minutes and then cleared his throat.
"Kyra, we need to go talk to Dad" he said and she looked up at him and nodded. She slowly got up out the chair and followed him down the hall to John's room.
"Something's going on" Sam said as they walked into the room. He went and stood by John's bed and Kyra went over to the window.
"We felt something" she mumbled, her thumb in her mouth again.
"What do you mean, you felt something" John asked.
"I don't know…" Sam said looking at Kyra for support but she didn't give any. "It felt like, Dean" he said. "Like he was there just out of eye shot or something, I don't know if it's my physic thing or what"
"It can't be, I could hear him too" Kyra said looking at them.
"But do you even think it's possible, do you think a spirit could be around?" Sam asked.
"Anything's possible" John nodded.
"Well there's one way to find out" Sam said heading out the room.
"Where you going?" John and Kyra asked at the same time.
"I gotta pick something up, but I'll be back" Sam said.
"Wait Sam" John said "I promise I won't hunt this demon. Not until we know Dean's okay"
Sam nodded and left, Kyra looked at John with a piercing look.
"We both know that was a lie" she said crossly and looked back out the window.
"Kyra" John said slowly.
"No Dad, for once could you just stop" she said looking at him with teary eyes. "We have to accept the fact that Dean might not make it out this one, he might never wake up and all you're concerned about is hunting a demon"
He opened his mouth to speak but Kyra held her hand up "I've had enough" she said and stood up to leave.
"Ky, have you phoned Adam?" he asked and she turned around slowly.
"Don't say his name, don't you ever talk about him. Adam and this life are to be kept separate. Do you understand?" she asked crossly.
"Just talk to him" John said "I won't say anything more about it"
"Good" Kyra said exiting the room. She wiped her tears away as she walked quickly down the hall. Knowing that she wasn't allowed to use her phone in the hospital she went outside into the parking lot and paused. Her phone seemed to weigh a ton in her hand, her fingers moved slowly as she found Adam's number and rung it. On the fifth ring he picked up.
"Kyra" he said and the sound of his voice saying her name made her freeze. "Kyra are you there. Baby speak to me" he said.
"Adam" she said eventually. She broke down into tears.
"Sweetheart, what's happened?" Adam asked, the concern overpowering his normally firm voice. After Kyra had composed herself she spoke.
"We were in a car crash" she said.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Yes, I'm fine but Dean. He's, he's in a coma. The doctors don't think he's gonna wake up" she said breaking down again.
"Ky, do you want me to come?" he asked and Kyra suddenly pulled it together.
"No, Adam. Stay where you are" she said.
"I can't leave you in this state" Adam said.
"Sam's here and so is Dad. Please just stay home, I'll be back as soon as I can" Kyra said, sniffing.
"Alright, but call me as soon as there's news" he said and Kyra nodded.
"I will, I love you" she said tearfully.
"I love you too" Adam said.
"Bye"
"Bye"
After she'd hung up Kyra fell to her knees, her phone hit the floor and Kyra held her face in her hands. She then felt hands on her shoulders. She looked up and saw Gabriel.
"Cheer up Kyra" he said.
"How am I supposed to cheer up? My family is falling apart" she said.
"There's still hope" Gabriel said and Kyra looked at him crossly.
"What do you know about hope?"
"Honey I'm an angel, I invented hope" he said giving her shoulders a squeeze. "Now Sam's nearly back, stand up and wipe your face. You need to be strong, your brothers need you" Gabriel and the sound of wings came and he was gone. Kyra had only just stood up when Sam walked into the parking lot. He saw Kyra and walked over to her quickly.
"Are you okay?" he asked, putting a hand on her shoulder.
"Yeah, I just called Adam" she said waving her phone and he nodded. Kyra noticed the brown bag in his hand. "What's that?" she asked.
"Come on" Sam said taking her hand and pulling her back in the direction of the hospital.
"Hey" Sam said gently as they entered Dean's room. "I think maybe you're around and if you are, you'll make fun of me for this. But um, there's one way we can talk" Sam said reaching into the bag. Kyra managed to hold her laugh as Sam brought out a Ouija Board.
"I hate to agree with you but that might actually work" she said and Sam shrugged his shoulders.
"It's worth a shot" he said and walked to the middle of the room.
Kyra watched as Sam set the board on the floor and sat down in-front of it. Sam then looked up at her.
"Are you helping or not?" he asked and with a roll of her eyes Kyra sat down opposite him and placed her hands on the wooden dial.
Sam took a deep breath before talking "Dean, Dean are you here?" he asked and they waited for a response but nothing came.
"Maybe you're not doing it right" Kyra said.
"Well you try then" Sam said irritated.
Kyra looked down at the board and then up again at the empty air. "Dean you sorry son of a bitch, get the hell down of your high horse and play with the board!" she said and a few seconds later the dial moved.
"God I feel like I'm at a slumber party…" Kyra heard Dean's voice in her head and she smiled. They watched as the dial highlighted the YES.
"Oh it's good to hear from you man. It hasn't been the same without you Dean" Sam said with a sigh of relieve.
"Damn straight…" Dean answered.
The dial then started to move again. "Dean, what?" Sam asked. They both watched as it started to spell out a word. "H…U…N…T what hunting? Are you hunting?" Sam asked.
The dial then moved to yes.
"What are you hunting Dean?" Kyra asked. She could feel Dean's cold energy surrounding her as the dial moved. She glanced at Sam but he didn't seem to be feeling it all.
"I don't think its killing people, I think its taking them. You know, when they're times up" Dean said. They watched as the word Reaper was spelt out.
"Is it after you?" Sam asked.
Kyra looked at him and then at the board again.
It moved to YES.
"If it's here naturally, then there's no way to stop it" Sam said.
"There must be a way" Kyra said.
"No Ky, there isn't. The reapers don't decide who live and who dies" Sam said.
"Then who does?" Kyra asked and for a brief second Sam looked upwards as if he were looking into the sky.
"I don't know" he replied.
"You can't kill death" Dean said.
Sam then got up and took the board with him. He was mumbling to himself and Kyra followed behind.
"Sam, where are you going?" she called but he didn't reply.
They walked to John's room but when they got there he was gone.
"Sam, you didn't bring that stuff he wanted back with you. Did you?" she asked, he looked down at her slowly. "Ah Sam, you now for a grad student you can be really air headed sometimes" she said turning down the hall.
"Kyra, where are you going?" Sam called.
"To find Dad" she called back.
Kyra had a fairly decent idea where she would find John. The basement was always going to be a good place to start. She managed to find the stairs leading down but just as she was starting to descend an arm shot out in-front of her blocking her way.
"Gabriel" Kyra said looking up at the angel.
"Where are you going Kyra?" he asked.
"To find my Dad" she answered "Move"
"No, I can't do that" Gabriel said.
"Gabby, move your arm out the way" Kyra said trying to push past him. As she did he grabbed her arm and she felt the tugging sensation in her stomach. She then opened her eyes to the hallway outside Dean's room.
"Gabriel, quit getting in the way" Kyra said crossly.
"Death was down there Kyra, I couldn't let you go. Just stay by the sidelines" he said walking towards the vending machine. Kyra watched as he got a coffee and then walked back over to her and placed it in her hands.
"Help Sam" he said and then came to sound of flapping wings.
Kyra turned around and looked back in the direction of the basement. She gave it a thought about going back but she then heard Sam's voice talking to Dean. With a heavy sigh she walked inside the room.
"Hey" she said and handed him the coffee.
"Thanks, did you find Dad" he replied.
"Nope, but he can look after himself, what are you doing?" Kyra asked sitting in the chair.
"I was about to talk to Dean" Sam said and she nodded.
"Natter away" she said and rested back.
"Dad wasn't in his room" Sam said to Dean.
"Where is he?" Dean asked. Kyra sighed and squeezed her eyes shut; she was going to find it really hard to sit there and hear Dean's voice in her head and not see his body moving.
"But I got Dad's journal, who knows there maybe something in here" Sam said opening the book up. Kyra had always admired her Dad's journal, when she was a kid she had always wanted to read it like a bedtime story. Sam flicked through it and then came to a stop.
"Find something?" Kyra asked.
"Thanks for not giving up on me guys" Dean suddenly said. Kyra looked into the general direction that she thought his voice came from.
"You won't give up on us" she whispered.
"What?" Sam asked looking at her.
"Nothing" she replied "So come on, what'd you find?"
"Son of a bitch" came Dean's reply. Kyra then felt his presence leave and she sat up. "What does it say?" she asked getting up and going over to Sam's side.
"It says that reapers can alter human perception, it helps comfort their lost souls before their taken to the afterlife" Sam said and Kyra looked at him.
"I think Dean's onto it" she said and Sam looked at her confused.
"What do you mean?" he asked.
"I can here him, I've been hearing him talk" Kyra said and Sam's eyes went wide.
"Since when?" he asked raising his voice a little.
"Since he smashed the glass" Kyra said looking away.
"So you're telling me you've been hearing him all this time? And you didn't say anything?" Sam asked crossly.
"Yes, and I didn't say anything because it wouldn't have achieved anything" Kyra said raising her voice back. Sam took a second to respond.
"Is it just Dean you can hear?" he asked and Kyra looked straight though him.
"I can't hear everyone Sam; I think I can only hear Dean because he's unconscious" Kyra said and he nodded.
"So what do we do now?" he asked.
"Wait, for either Dad or Dean to get back" Kyra said sitting back down in the chair and closing her eyes.
"Dean are you here, I couldn't find anything in the book. I don't know how to help you. Bit I'll keep trying alright. As long as you keep fighting. I mean come you can't, you can't leave me alone here with Dad we'll kill each other. You know that an, Kyra needs you man. She acts tough but she needs you the most. She's the baby, the baby girl who needs her big brother. And I don't know how I can possibly keep strong for her when I can't even keep strong for myself. Dean, you gotta hold on. You can't go man, not now. We were just starting to be brothers again, can you hear me?"
Kyra kept her eyes shut; she didn't want Sam to know that she was awake and could hear him. Though all of this she'd totally forgotten to ask Sam how he was feeling and coping.
Then making them both jump Dean started to choke on his tubes. Kyra jumped up and looked at Sam shocked.
"Help, we need help!" Sam shouted.
Around an hour later Dean was sitting up in the bed and the doctor from before was marvelling over his notes.
"I can't explain it, the edema's vanished, the internal contusions are healed and your vitals are good. You gotta have some kind of angel watching over you" the doctor said looking at Dean.
"Thanks Doc" Dean nodded, the doctor left and Dean looked at his younger sibling.
"You said a reaper was after me" he asked.
"Yeah" Sam nodded.
"How'd I ditch it?" Dean asked.
"You got me" Sam asked.
"So you don't remember anything?" Kyra asked and Dean shook his head.
"No, nothing. Except this pit in my stomach. Guys something's wrong" he replied.
There was then a knock at the door and all three siblings looked up.
"How you feeling dude?" John asked, leaning on the door frame.
Kyra immediately knew something was up; maybe it was her sixth sense that Gabriel had given her. Or maybe it was the fact that she'd always been able to read people well, whatever it was she knew that something was up with her Father. He'd done something, something she wasn't sure she was going to like.
"Fine I guess I'm alive" Dean said answering her father's question.
"That's what matters" John smiled.
"Where were you last night?" Sam asked, taking the words out Kyra's mouth.
"I had some things to take care of" John replied.
"Well that's specific" Sam said sarcastically.
"Come on Sam" Dean sighed.
"Did you go after the demon?"
"No" John replied.
"Why don't I believe you right now?" Sam asked, starting to raise his voice.
Kyra sat down next to Dean who was finding it hard not to react.
"You know if you were still attached to a heart monitor…" Kyra said.
"It would be going crazy right now" Dean finished.
"Can we not fight" John asked Sam "You know half the time we're fighting and I don't even know what we're fighting about. We're just butting heads. Look Sammy, I've, I've made some mistakes but I've always done the best I could. I just don't wanna fight anymore okay? " John said, they could see the tears in his eyes. Dean gently took Kyra's hand and gave it a squeeze. They were always the ones who were stuck in the middle of their brother and father's fights.
"Da, are you alright?" Sam asked.
"Sam, please just quit being patronising and make up" Kyra said tiredly.
"It's alright Kyra" John said smiling down at his youngest child and only daughter. "Yeah Sammy, I'm just a little tired. Would you and Kyra mind getting me a cup of caffeine?" he asked and Kyra nodded.
"Sure Dad" she said getting up and pulling on Sam's sleeve. Sam walked ahead of her out the room, before she left Kyra quickly hugged her Father. He hugged her tightly back and then ruffled her hair.
"I'll go got your coffee" she said and John smiled.
"You're a good kid" he said as she smiled and left the room.
Kyra joined Sam at the coffee machine.
"I don't have enough change" he mumbled to her quietly.
"Here" she said reaching into her pocket and picking out a few coins. She handed them over to Sam who smiled.
"Remember when we were kids, we'd wait for Dean to fall asleep and then sneak out to the vending machine" he said and Kyra laughed.
"Yeah but we never had enough money so you'd hack the stupid thing" Kyra said. "You always got me chocolate" she added thoughtfully.
Sam smiled and picked up the full cup of coffee.
As they walked towards John's room they thought and laughed about old times but the laughing soon came to a stop when they saw a figure lying on the floor.
"DAD!" Kyra shouted and ran over to him. Sam wasn't far behind. They leant over John's body but couldn't get any response from him. Sam called for help but they already knew that John was gone. Kyra fell backwards and covered her face with her hands. Her ears filled with the sounds of her sobs and Sam's screams for help.
Doctors came and Sam pulled Kyra to her feet.
"We have to get Dean" he said and she nodded and followed him to Dean's room.
"What's going on?" Dean asked as Sam started to help him up.
"It's Dad" Kyra said tearfully.
Dean looked from her face to Sam. Once they got to John's room they saw the nurses and doctors attempting C.P.R. The heart monitor made it all to clear that there was no heartbeat.
"You'll have to wait outside" a nurse said trying to usher them out.
"No, he's our Dad" Dean said. He was leaning onto Kyra quite a bit for support. She turned her face away and buried it into Dean's side. She couldn't look, she didn't want to look.
"Time of death 10:41 AM"
A few days later three figures could be seen watching a wrapped up body burn. Dean, Sam and Kyra were cremating their Father. Kyra stood in-between her brothers, holding their hands. They might not have been fully related by only having the same Father but that meant nothing. To Sam and Dean Kyra was their proper little sister and as far as Kyra was concerned Sam and Dean where her brothers. But they weren't the only family she had. She had Adam and what she needed more than ever was to be home with him.
As they watched the flames Kyra looked up and Sam and saw the tears falling from his eyes. She pulled him into a hug and he wrapped his arms around her tightly and cried into her shoulder. She then started to cry harder as well, she felt a hand on her back and looked at Dean. He had always been the master of one tear; she looked at the single tear line on his cheek.
"Before he, before he…" Sam said "Did he say anything to you. About anything?" he asked looking over at Dean.
"No" Dean whispered. "Nothing"
After a couple minutes Kyra wiped her face and turned to walk towards her Mustang, which Bobby had recovered for her from the factory. He'd even put knew wheels on for her.
"Where are you doing?" Dean called from behind her.
"I'm going home" she called back.
A hand then grabbed her shoulder and spun her around.
"You can't bail out on us now" Dean said crossly, the look on his face and the light from the fire would have scared any normal person into submission but Kyra wasn't scared of him.
"I have to go home" she said "I need to be with Adam"
"What about us?" he asked.
"You have each other" Kyra said looking from Dean to Sam.
"But we need you as well" Sam said tearfully.
Tears started to wobble from her eyes as she looked at Sam. "I'm sorry" she said shaking her head. "This isn't my life" she said and ran to her car.
"This is your only life Kyra; you can't run away from it!" Dean shouted just as she got into the car.
"Watch me!" she shouted as she slammed the door. She didn't look back as she pulled the car out and revved down the road back towards home. Back to Adam.
