Home Invasion

Dean shifted in the passenger seat, he grunted at thought of being in a car other than the Impala, and even worse he wasn't the driver! Alexis gripped the steering wheel tight and kept her eyes on the open road. Dean had told Alexis they were going to the hospital in the Impala, Alexis didn't agree, and by the state of this situation it's clear she won.

"You're car is…" Sam tried to find words as he sat in the back seat and looked around at the cleanliness of it. There wasn't a crumb anywhere! "…clean! Can we keep this?"

Dean shot Sam a glare. "Still don't see how we can't take the Impala,"

Alexis ignored them and tried to focus on the road, her eyes itched from tiredness and her skin trembled with shakes. "Hold the wheel for a sec?" she asked Dean.

Dean sighed and held the wheel.

Alexis bent down to the side pocket of her car and found some pills, she popped a few in her mouth and dry swallowed them. She ignored the glance Dean and Sam shared and took back the wheel. "What're you taking?" Dean asked.

"Pills, got them from the medics, help me stay awake," she shrugged.

Dean hesitated and looked at Sam to give him a quick smile then return to stare at Alexis. He has seen a side to her before, a side he wasn't sure if Sammy remembered or not, and he sure as hell didn't want Sammy to EVER see it – regardless to whether he had or hadn't before. "Alexis," Dean sighed.

"Don't go there Dean, you got your problems I got mine, lets leave it at that yeah?" Alexis smirked and put her foot down to make the car go faster.

"Yeah sure whatever," Dean shrugged.

They arrived at the hospital, Alexis shoved another pill in her mouth and put her doctors' coat on, Dean and Sam followed her everywhere. They watched as she was greeted by fellow doctors and nurses, even the receptionist, and Sam was jealous…jealous that she had the life Sam had, but she had managed to keep it. Then he began to doubt Dean's decision on Alexis helping them, because she seemed pretty damn set at the hospital.

"Hey Alexis!" Melissa smiled and waltzed up to her.

"Melissa," she smiled.

"Oh…hey," Dean smirked and nodded to her, obviously hoping to get lucky.

"Uh…you are?" she frowned in response.

"Dean, Dean Winchester," he nodded and shook her hand.

Alexis sighed and rubbed her pounding head. "Melissa, these are my brothers, Dean and Sam,"

"Oh hey, it's so nice to finally meet some of her family," Melissa smiled.

Sam tried not to read too much in Melissa's words and tapped Alexis on the shoulder, to try and remind her they have a case.

"Melissa is Mr Brenham still in recovery?" she asked trying to stay professional and friendly at the same time.

"Uh…yeah, why?" Melissa frowned.

"My brothers, they're federal agents, they're here to ask them some questions," Alexis announced and looked to her brothers who were already holding the fake I.D and had their thumbs by their fake name so Melissa couldn't see them.

"Oh, yeah sure…wow you're family are just full off people who do good aren't they?" Melissa chuckled.

Alexis shrugged casually and started to walk to recovery. The Winchesters were silent, they were never good with talking, only Dean and Sam shared glances as they watched Melissa lead them through the hospital. She knew every shortcut, every floor tile, like the back of her hand.

"How long you been working here then Lexis?" Sam asked, trying to break the silence.

Alexis shrugged. "How long you been at Stanford?"

Sam tried not to wince. "About three years,"

"There's your answer," Alexis grunted and opened the double doors. Mr Brenham was asleep in his bed, nice new padding to cover his arm. Mrs Brenham was wide awake watching her husband sleep. Her head lifted as she saw Alexis, Sam and Dean walk in, then a frown crossed her face.

"Dr Winchester, what are you doing here? Why are you with these men?" She asked standing up.

"Just thought I would check on your husband," Alexis smiled. "Skip the formalities, I'm Alexis," she smiled and shook Mrs Brenham's hand.

"Sandy," Mrs Brenham replied and kept a stern eye on the boys.

"Sandy, these are my brothers, I know what happened okay? And they would like to ask you a few questions," Alexis smiled comfortingly.

She nodded and looked to them. "You left before I had a chance to thank you, if you didn't ring the ambulance, I don't think…"

Dean stiffened at the chick-flick moment and sighed. "Yeah, well no problem, uh…do you know a Miss Hudson?"

Sandy's eyes became puzzled. "Yeah, she was my next door neighbour,"

Dean looked to Sam and Alexis. "That would explain why we found her next door," he mumbled.

"Why? What has she got to do with anything?" Sandy frowned and glanced down at her husband.

Sam swallowed. "Did she have any regular visitors? Any that lived in a place near Sioux Falls?"

Sandy paused to think. "Yes actually," she frowned. "Uh…this woman, I think it was her sister, Jenny Hudson, yeah she lived like ten minutes from the center of Sioux Falls actually. Why?"

"Thanks Sandy, you did great, it's just a precaution. I'll come back tomorrow and see how you're both doing," Alexis smiled and disappeared with her brothers outside of the room.

"So what do you think?" Sam asked Dean.

Alexis and Dean shared a glance.

"I think…we have a Wicca in Sioux Falls," Dean shrugged.

"I'll ring Bobby, let him know," Alexis announced flipping out her phone and going around the corner.

Sam shifted his weight slightly.

"Ants in your pants?" Dean asked with a raised eyebrow.

Sam shook his head. "Back in the car, when Alexis took those pills you…you looked at me, like…you were...I dunno like you were searching for something,"

Dean frowned. "Looking for what?"

Sam shrugged. "I dunno, an emotion,"

Dean let out a heavy sigh then smiled as Alexis came back round the corner.

"Did I interrupt something?" Alexis frowned feeling the tension roll off Dean.

"No," Dean said too quickly. "What did Bobby say?"

Alexis swallowed hard. "He didn't answer,"

"So what?" Sam shrugged. "He probably has another call,"

"No, he answers EVERY single time I ring, no, no something's up!" Alexis sighed and held her head.

Sam's eyes became wide, as Alexis sat down on a nearby chair and held her head, the whole scene felt familiar to him. The headaches that hurt more than they should. He watched as Alexis popped another pill in her mouth and stood up.

"You okay?" Dean asked an eyebrow raised.

"Yes!" Alexis snapped. "Let's just go back to Bobby's and dig up some information on this Jenny Hudson."

"Jeez cranky," Dean mumbled, just audible to Sam, as Alexis walked straight ahead of them.

"What's wrong with her?" Sam frowned.

"Just leave it Sammy!" Dean ordered and walked ahead to join Alexis.

Sam frowned, he felt completely alone and out of the picture, and this wasn't the first time in his life. The last time this happened he made a decision to leave, but this time, this time he wanted to stay. He wanted to be like Alexis, he wanted to fix it, he wanted to fix everyone.

With a heavy sigh Sam followed his brother and sister to the car.

1 hour later.

"Oh yeah, Bobby's pissed about his lock," Alexis announced as she fumbled for her keys to her house.

Dean smirked. "Yeah, well I'm sure 'Bob'll fix it!'"

"Did you just make a Bob the Builder reference?" Alexis frowned, Dean shrugged and she laughed. A light laugh, but it was enough to make both Dean and Sam grin like idiots. "Wow, I've missed you," she blurted, then realised what she said.

Dean and Sam shared a glance.

"Found them!" Alexis shouted and twisted it in the door. The house was relatively quiet and Alexis put her bag to one side noisily. She was welcomed with the same atmosphere, dark and heavy, something wasn't right. She caught Sam and Dean's attention and signalled them to be quiet.

They both nodded.

Sam rolled his eyes. "Maybe he's out on a hunt?" he whispered.

Alexis shook her head and pointed to Bobby's jacket. He never left without it. The boys immediately understood. Dean moved to the bottom of the stairs and signalled for Sam to go in the living area, and for Alexis to go to the basement, so that he was going to the kitchen. They nodded, and immediately got their head in the hunt.

Dean tossed Alexis his gun as she reached the top steps. She nodded appreciatively and frowned as if to say what about you? Dean held up his knife and she nodded. Slowly and quietly, knowing every single creak in the stairs, she avoided them and got to the bottom. Everything seemed quiet, the panic room was closed and showed no signs of anyone in there. She turned around quickly as a sound was made. In the corner of the room was a pile of books and debris, which was moving! She crept towards it as a book shifted and Bobby's dusty head was revealed.

She took a sharp intake of breath and ran towards him. His mouth was sealed with duct-tape and his hands and feet were tied together with rope. She quickly untied him and ripped the duct-tape off but he wouldn't move. "Bobby!" she whispered. "Bobby wake up!" she sighed and looked around for some water. Instead she decided to slap him, he jolted up with a large breath.

"What the-" he breathed.

"Bobby are you okay?" Alexis asked trying to see if his pupils were dilated.

"Do I look like I'm okay?" Bobby coughed.

She smirked knowing whatever went down, he hadn't hurt himself, because this was his usual cranky self. "What happened?"

"The Wicca bitch came here, her names Jenny Hudson or something…" Bobby said whilst he tried to cough the dust out from his lungs.

"Why did she come here?" Alexis frowned.

"Said she witnessed her sister dying, and that it was down to Sam and Dean Winchester, then she looked through the phone records…and saw you lived here." Bobby announced and tried to lock in eye contact with Alexis.

"What?" Alexis breathed. "She wasn't after you? She was after me?" she frowned, her head pounding, she needed another fix, her eyes were already itching.

"She was going to use you as bait, yeah," Bobby's jaw clenched in anger.

"I'm so sorry Bobby," Alexis sighed. "Where did she go?"

Bobby shrugged. "Up the stairs,"

"Dean and Sam are up there! I have to…" she scrambled up and ran up the stairs leaving Bobby underneath a pile of books.
