Chapter 3
Third Person
Maddie looked around holding her flare gun close to her side. Something didn't feel right. As she turned the corner, she stayed hidden in the shadow. She didn't know if it was the fact that she had to waste a demon possessing a little girl, or the fact that the little girl was for sure dead, that made her feel more sick. Acheri. That was what they were hunting.
A demon that disguises itself as a little girl from Indian folk tradition. Acheri are said to inhabit the mountains and murder travelers who are taken by its helpless exterior. A form of protection against them is to wear a red thread around the neck. Which is why Maddie was sporting a piece around her neck.
The girl froze when she heard something behind her. She spun and held the flare gun out, ready to use it instantly, but nothing was there. Suddenly, she was thrown across the field. When she looked up, she saw a young girl walking towards her.
"You really think I'm ready to die?" The girl laughed. "I've been waiting years for this. You however, can die."
That was all Maddie witnessed before she felt herself flying. Then, everything went dark.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Dean paced the floor of the hospital. He knew he should've gone with Maddie. He was stupid to let her go her own way and now his sister was lying in a hospital bed. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. Sam came into the waiting room holding two cups. Handing one to his older brother, he took a seat to wait for the doctor to come out.
When Dean's phone rang, he grabbed it. "Yeah?"
"Any news?" Bobby's voice rang through the phone.
"Not yet Bobby." Dean sighed once more.
"Boy, stop pacing. You'll dig a hole in the floor and that won't help Maddie. I'm on my way up there now."
"Bobby, you didn't need to leave. We could stop by after Maddie gets released."
"You three are family. I'm going to be there when she wakes up. I'm three hours out."
"Okay. Thanks Bobby."
"No problem. Now sit down you idjit."
Dean hung up and dug his cell back into his pocket. He sat back down next to his brother and sighed. "I swear, she keeps getting hurt."
"Don't go and do anything Dean." Sam growled out.
The eldest Winchester looked at his brother for a moment then softly he sighed, "I won't Sammy."
Sam nodded once and went back to looking at the floor while slowly drinking his hospital coffee. Finally, after what seemed like forever, the doctor walked out. Both the brothers stood up instantly and nearly ran over to him. "How is she doc?"
"She's resting. Maddie hit her head and has a concussion but it was safe for her to sleep. She hurt her arm and I understand that it was once broken so that'll be sore for some time. I am also happy to report that the baby is okay and healthy."
Dean froze. "B-Baby?" He spit out a laugh as best he could. "I think we're talking about the wrong Maddie here doc."
The doctor shook his head. "Madeline Fitzgerald."
Sam and Dean looked at each other. Maddie was pregnant? "H-How far along is she doc?" Sam asked softly.
"Roughly, I'd say about 20 weeks. She's showing."
"Thanks doc." Dean's gruff voice said quietly. He and Sam sat down in the waiting room chairs to think before going to see their pregnant little sister.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Something felt weird. I couldn't understand what was happening. I looked around and instantly knew where I was. Lawrence.
"Hello Maddie." A voice smirked behind me. I spun around and there he stood. My twin. "You look surprised to see me Maddie."
I looked around the room again trying to ignore him. I wasn't sure if I was stuck in a vision or an alternate reality again. "I'm okay." I muttered.
"Now Maddie, that's the last thing you are." I looked at Aiden. "See, you're stuck in here with me." He smirked and instantly I saw the evil in him. Slowly, I backed away but with every step, he grew closer to me. "Don't be scared Mads, it's just me. Your brother."
"My brother wouldn't be trapping me in my own head!" I growled.
"Well, that demon helped me. The little girl you were hunting. When she threw you she did something. I don't really know what it was but because of it, I'm now here. And I'm not leaving. Even when you're awake, you'll still hear my nagging little voice, always bothering you. And when you're asleep," He chucked darkly, "Well then you're mine."
"Why are you doing this?" I screamed at him. "What do you want?"
"You'll see sooner or later. For now, that's my little secret."
"I didn't know you were out there! I didn't know I had a twin! If I did I would've looked for you! I swear!"
Aiden looked over at me and for a moment I saw the brother I had in the alternate reality, but with a flash, he was gone and the cold monster was back. "That doesn't matter. I'm more powerful then you can imagine because of Azazel."
"It's the demon blood Aiden! It's in me too!"
"I know." He smirked. "But I have more." Aiden trapped me in between his arms and looked down at me. Softly he whispered, "You're my little sister, but you're also my prisoner. You think Stanton will be able to save you? You even try to give him clues of my presence, and... well..." His hand traced over my baby bump as my eyes filled with tears that spilled over as his hot breath whispered in my ear, "I don't want to hurt my nephew Maddie; don't make it come to that. The decision is yours."
I nodded knowing I wouldn't be able to speak as a sob escaped from my mouth.
"Aww, don't cry Maddie. Your baby is safe for now. That's what matters." I nodded again. "Good." He kissed the top of my head. "It's time to wake up little sister. I'll see you later." I met his eyes, just in time to see them flash red.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I moaned painfully as I started waking up. An annoying beep...beep...beep was the only noise radiating through the room. Slowly, I opened my eyes to see where I was. Everything was blurry since someone had taken my contacts out, but I could make out the outline of a hospital room. I looked over at the table and saw my glasses. Grabbing them, I slipped them onto my face before sitting up more.
The door opened and a nurse in purple scrubs came in. "Oh, you're awake." She smiled sweetly. She couldn't be older than twenty. I nodded. "The doctor will be happy to know. How do you feel?"
I bit my lip not really sure how to answer. Was everything just a dream that I just had? A nightmare?
"You wish I was only in your dreams Maddie." A voice smirked in my head. I closed my eyes. "Now, answer the nice lady's question."
I looked up at her. "I'm a little sore." I answered softly.
"That's expected. Are you hungry?"
"Yeah."
"I imagine. You're eating for two so the hospital will give you a little more than normal patients usually receive."
I started to nod but then I froze realizing what happened and looked up quickly. "You know I'm pregnant?" I demanded.
"Sweetheart, I had to put the gown on you. I had seen that you're pregnant."
"Does the doctor know?" I asked softly.
"It's my job to tell him. I had to."
Closing my eyes, I took a deep breath. "And did he..." I couldn't finish.
The nurse looked at me sympathetically, "Yes, he told your brothers."
Leaning my head back, I swore and took a deep breath. First, I was pregnant, with a half demon child. Second, my older twin brother was keeping me hostage in my own mind. Third, Sam and Dean just found out I was pregnant...yeah. I definitely am on death row.
An hour later, my door finally opened and a familiar face walked in. "Bobby!" I squealed happily.
"Hey darlin'" He smiled.
I smiled at him. "I'm happy you're here."
"I bet you are. You're in some mess girl." Bobby gave me a stern look. "Your brothers ain't happy."
Looking down at the hospital bed, I whispered, "I know. I...I was gonna tell them, I just..."
"Well they know now."
I opened my mouth to reply but the door opened again and in walked my two older brothers. They didn't look happy but in their eyes I saw the relief that I was okay and that's all that mattered at the moment.
Sam looked at me and walked over. Instantly, he wrapped his long arms around my chest, enveloping me in one of his safe hugs that used to protect me from the scary monsters. I closed my eyes and snuggled into that chest. "I'm happy you're okay baby." He whispered.
"She's not a baby Sammy." Dean's voice grunted. I looked up quickly; it was more dad's voice than his own. "Babies don't have babies." I opened my mouth to explain only to be cut off. "You really don't want to speak right now Madeline!"
I should've listened to that warning, but, of course, I didn't. "And how many children do you have running around because of those one night stands Dean?" I demanded. "Ben isn't the only one!"
Dean's eyes flashed darkly. I sat in the bed still as my irate brother walk over to me. Grabbing the back of my neck, he growled in my ear. "You really think copping an attitude with me is wise? You're seventeen, pregnant, and in deep shit. Lose. The. Attitude."
"Yes sir." I whispered.
"Wise decision." He squeezed my neck one last time then finally let go.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I was breathing hard as I ran through the dark, long hallways. Aiden's laugh followed me. "You can't run from me Maddie! This is my world!"
"It's my head!" I screamed.
He laughed again and was suddenly in front of me. "But I'm in control of it." He moved closer to me. "Aww come on. You're my little sister; it's my job to make you scared. I love ya sis."
"Just leave me alone! Please!"
"Then find me." I looked at him weird. "Find where I am in person Maddie, then maybe, maybe I'll leave you alone in here."
"How am I supposed to find you?"
Aiden smirked. "Oh, Danny will know where I am."
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I wrapped my arms around my stomach as I sat in the back seat of the impala. "What the fuck were you thinking Maddie?" Dean growled.
"You have options Maddie. You can give the baby to a family who can take care of it. Who doesn't hunt."
I opened my mouth but Dean cut me off. "No Sam, she's keeping that baby. It's family. She got herself into this mess, she's going to deal with the responsibility of it."
"Dean, she's still a kid herself. She can't raise a baby alone."
"She won't be alone. She'll have me." A new voice proclaimed.
My eyes widened as Dean slammed on the breaks. "Stanton."
My brother turned around and glared at my demon boyfriend. "You have a lot of fucking nerve coming here right now."
"I didn't come at all while she was in the hospital. I deserve to see her."
"You really think making demands is smart right now?" Dean growled.
"Dean!" I stepped forward. "He has a right to see me!"
Dean growled again and my eyes grew as dad's journal came out of nowhere. "Exorcizamus te, omnis immundus spiritus-"
I ran and jumped grabbing the journal from him knowing he didn't have the exorcism memorized like Sam and I. "Dean no!" I stood in front of Stanton who was very calm; as if he was expecting this to happen. Which, he probably was.
"Move Madeline."
"No! I need him here for the baby, Dean! I won't know what to do when his powers come in!"
"He?" Sam asked stepping forward. "It's too early for you to know the sex Maddie."
I bit my lip not knowing if I should tell them about those visions I've been having. "What aren't you telling us?" Dean demanded in a dangerous voice. Stanton nudged me gently and I gulped before softly telling my brothers the truth. "So…you knew you were gonna get pregnant, and you didn't do a damn thing to fucking prevent it?" Dean growled even more pissed.
"NO!" I screamed. "I didn't know when the vision was gonna come true! I didn't plan on having sex!"
Dean stared at me to see if I was lying or not. He stared for what seemed to be hours. Finally he sighed, "We're not done talking about this. As for you," He glared at Stanton, "I won't kill you…yet. But, if you're not there for my sister or that baby, you're fucking dead."
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I sighed and sat there thinking. Maybe I shouldn't do this, I thought. I already knew the answer to that. I knew what I had to do. Taking a deep breath, I closed my eyes and summoned Danny. "You know there is a reason I gave you my cell right?" I spun around as his eyes scanned the room. "Where's the stuff you used to summon me?"
"I've never used stuff to summon a demon. Well, not since my deal with Stanton."
Danny raised an eyebrow. "Nothing at all?"
"Nope."
"Hmm," He wondered. "What is it you need with me today Miss Winchester?"
I sighed, "I need your help."
"I'm surprised you trust me enough."
"Don't get ahead of yourself. I don't trust you, and I should be telling Stanton about you, but I can't. Not if you help me."
His eyebrow rose higher, "Help you with…?"
"Finding Aiden."
The demon looked at me surprised. "What makes you think I know where he is?"
"He told me you do." I explained to Danny how my twin was holding me captive in my own head and if he helped me find my brother how I would help him with whatever he needed done.
Danny gave me his infamous smirk. "Deal."
That's how I got to where I was now. I was about to see my twin; my evil twin. Grabbing the paper that had the address Danny gave me, I walked down the streets of New York City. Not only would my brothers freak out if they knew I was here, but Stanton would have my ass for even trying something like this. Especially while pregnant.
Turning the corner, I walked for what felt like another block before finally reaching the house. I slowly climbed up the steps and knocked on the door. A tall, white haired teen opened the great big oak door. One look at me and a sigh erupted from his thin body. "Damn." He muttered and kicked the door open more. "Get in." I followed his order and walked inside. "Stefan! I fucking owe you $50! She showed!"
"Ha!" A voice shouted from the kitchen. "Told you jackass!"
I looked around the big, fancy house as the guy led me through it. "I can't believe you were stupid enough to actually show."
"Excuse me?"
He shook his head. "You don't know anything about your brother kid. He's not a good guy. He's evil." A smirk formed on his face. "But then again, we all are in this house."
I looked up at the teen and stared at his face. He smiled down at me and instantly backed away seeing fangs. A laugh sounded from the kitchen as a very petite girl made her way towards us. "Now Isaac, it's not very nice to scare the child while she's pregnant."
The teen Isaac rolled his eyes. "Why should I care if she gets scared?"
"Because she's Aiden's little sister. Not food."
He rolled his eyes again. "You can care about your boyfriend's sister if you want to."
My head snapped to her. My brother was dating her? She was beautiful. Her eyes met mine. Once again, I saw fangs as she smiled down at me. "Aiden's still in the shower. Take her to his study or something. Just don't touch her. His orders."
Isaac sighed. "Aww, come on Jinx. Don't take away all my fun."
The girl smirked up at him and I could instantly tell that they were related. "I'll get something for you to play with later Isaac."
He smirked at his sister as she walked up the stairs and into one of the bedrooms. Isaac opened a door and forced me inside. Looking around, I saw a desk and a TV in the corner. It was an office. "Sit on the couch till Aiden gets here. Jinx went to tell him that you actually showed."
Suddenly another head popped up in the room causing me to jump. "You owe me."
The white haired teen sighed and pulled out his wallet. "Here dumbass."
"Thank you." The guy named Stefan smirked. "Boss man is on his way down."
"Okay." Isaac stood and walked out. I heard a hushed voice in the hallway while I sat in the room alone. Then, the door opened more and he walked in. My brother.
"Hello Maddie."
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Before I knew it, I was pinned to the wall with Aiden's strong body pinning me. "I'm happy you came Maddie. We needed some family time."
"You can get out of my head now then."
My brother chuckled. "I don't know if I'm ready to do that just yet."
"I came here! I found you!"
"Yes, you did find me. Good job, but that doesn't mean my games are over."
"Get out of my head." I growled commandingly.
Suddenly any joking matter escaped from my twin's face and all I saw was evil. Darkly, he growled, "You think you're in the position to tell me what to do Maddie?" His voice grew darker, more evil. "I basically own you right now. You're in my house, filled with my people who will kill you if I say the word. You may want to open your eyes to how much danger you really are in."
I nodded unable to speak. "Good girl. Now, if you want out of this house safely, you won't disrespect me again."
"Okay." I whispered.
"Good girl."
I closed my eyes and waited for what was going to come next, but before I knew it, the door opened and Jinx walked in. "Baby?"
"Hmm?" He looked up and over at his girlfriend.
"Ruby." Was all she said.
"Fuck." Aiden let me go and walked out of the room. I followed him and Jinx and saw a blonde standing next to Stefan. "What are you doing here?" He demanded.
Ruby looked up from talking with Stefan. "Is that anyway to great an old friend?"
"You were never my friend." He growled. "Now once more, what are you doing here?"
"I'm here to take your sister home before Sam wakes up and notices she's gone."
"Back off." He growled. "You're not welcome to touch my sister ever. Now, get out."
I looked at Aiden surprised. Was he protecting me? "Well, well, well, and here I thought you were in the middle of scaring her into an early labor. Now you're protecting her?"
"It's none of your concern what I do with my sister. You are not to be near her Ruby. If I find out you're doing anything with her, or my brothers, you will be fucking sorry. They're mine."
Ruby only chuckled. "We'll see." In the blink of an eye, the demon was gone.
Slowly, I followed Aiden back into the office. "You…You protected me."
"Of course I did."
"But…why?" I was in shock.
"You're my little sister. I'm the only demon, well…half demon, who can hurt you."
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
"Wait," Stanton whispered, "He protected you?"
"Yeah!" I nodded.
"And…he's letting you tell me now?"
"I guess he figures that you can know now that he's met with me."
" I don't like this Mads, he might be planning something." Stanton sighed.
I shook my head, "I don't think he is. I'm starting…to trust him. He doesn't want me to tell Sam and Dean though, so I won't, but…this is my chance to be with my brother."
Stanton sighed again, "Just be careful, stay on guard, and if you need me, call, no matter what."
"I will Stanton."
A few days later I was in the car with my brothers. I sighed getting frustrated. "Because "demon", that's why. I mean, the second you find out this Danny dude is a demon, you go for the holy water. You don't chat!"
"No one was chatting, Dean." I nearly growled.
"Oh, yeah? Then, why didn't you send his ass back to hell?"
"Because he said he might be able to help us out."
"How?" Dean demanded but I didn't answer. "No, really, Maddie, how? How could he possibly help us?"
"He told me he could help you, okay? Help you out of the crossroads deal."
"What is wrong with you, huh? He's lying! You've gotta know that, don't you? He knows what your weakness is: it's me.What else did he say?" I stayed silent again. "Dude?" He warned.
"Nothing." Dean gave me a look through the mirror. "Nothing, okay? Look, I'm not an idiot, Dean! I'm not talking about trusting him! I'm talking about using him. We're at war, right? And we don't know jack about the enemy. We don't know where they are, we don't know what they're doing. Hell, we don't even know what they want. Now, this Danny guy knows more than we will ever find out on our own. Now, yes, it's a risk. I know that. But we need to take it."
"You're okay, right? I mean, you're feeling okay—"
I interrupted fed up. "Yes! I'm fine! Why are you always asking me that?"
Suddenly we were all silent as a phone rang. Sam and Dean both looked at their phones. "It's not mine." Sam said.
"Mines on vibrate."
Dean shook his head looking at his phone. "No." His face suddenly showed recognition. "Check the glove compartment. It's Dad's."
"Dad's?" Sam demanded and I leaned forward.
"Yes. I keep it charged up in case any of his old contacts call."
Sam went through the glove compartment before finally fishing it out. "Hello?…Yes, this is Edgar Casey." He shrugged at us. "No, no. Don't call the police. I'll handle this myself… Thanks. You know, can you just lock it back up for me? …Great. You know, I don't have my book in front of me. Do you have the address? Sure, okay. Go ahead. He grabbed a pen that Dean held out. "Right. Thanks a lot." He hung up. "Did Dad ever tell you he kept a container at a storage place?"
"What?" Dean asked surprised.
"Outside of Buffalo?"
I looked at Dean surprised. "No way."
"Yeah. And someone just broke into it."
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Later on we were riding in the elevator up to Dad's storage unit. "Man…"
Sam looked over at Dean as I leaned back against the wall. "What?"
"Just Dad. You know, him and his secrets. I spend all this time with the guy, and it's like I barely even know the man."
"Well, we're about to learn something." I looked up as the elevator came to a stop. We walked to the door and easily broke open the lock and entered noticing the Devil's Trap. There are also bloody footsteps trailing into the facility.
"No demons allowed." I muttered.
"Blood." Dean pointed out.
Sam crouched down to examine it closer. There was a tripwire set up along the doorway as well. "Check this out."
"Whoever broke in here got attacked." I nodded.
Dean scoffed. "Dear old Dad. Hey, there are two sets of boot tracks here. Looks like it was a two-man job. And our friend with the buckshot in him looks like he kept walking."
"So, what's the deal? Dad would do work here, or something?" Sam questioned.
Dean sighed. "Living the high life, as usual." Welooked around the storage unit some more. There were filing cabinets, shelves, and all kinds of artifacts everywhere. Dean picked up a small trophy, brushing off the dust to read it. "1995."
"No way!" Sam grabbed it. "That's my division championship soccer trophy. I can't believe he kept this."
"I can't believe dad let you do soccer and I got my ass beat when I lied to you guys to do it after he said no."
Dean ignored me. "Yeah, it's probably the closest you ever came to being a boy." I smirked trying not to laugh at the look Sam gave out brother. Dean grabbed a rifle lying nearby. "Oh, wow! It's my first sawed-off. I made it myself. In the sixth grade." He cocked it looking pleased.
I sighed and walked around the storage unit. There were shelves full of stuff dad kept of Sam and Dean's, but nothing was mine. Then, I froze seeing it. Slowly, I grabbed the picture. Tears fell from my eyes as I looked down at it. Standing in the back yard was mom…holding both Aiden and me.
"Holy crap." Dean's voice broke my train of thought. I walked into a room full of weapons that dad kept hidden. "Look at this, he has landmines…which they didn't take. Or the guns. I guess they knew what they were after, huh?"
"Hey, guys, check this out." We walked over to look at boxes. "See these symbols? That's binding magic. These are curse boxes."
"Curse boxes – they're supposed to keep the evil mojo in, right? Kind of like a Pandora deal?"
"Yeah. They're built to contain the power of the cursed object."
"Dad's journal did mention a whole bunch of stuff, you know? Dangerous hexed items, fetishes - he never did say where they ended up."
Sam nodded. "Yeah. This must be his toxic waste dump." He noticed an empty space on one of the shelves, where one of the boxes have clearly been stolen. "One box is missing. Great."
"Well, maybe they didn't open it."
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
As we drove to the apartment building two states away where those two lived, I laid in the backseat texting Aiden. "Why do you have so many questions Maddie?"
I bit my lip replying. "Because we didn't grow up together. I wanna know more about you."
"My childhood was full of training. Just like yours. Except my trainers were demons. Nothing good to really tell you."
I suddenly felt bad for my older, evil twin. "Well, how'd you meet Jinx?"
"She was one of my trainers. But then I "graduated" and we started dating."
"Wait…how old is she?"
I swear I could sense my brother laughing as he sent his reply. "Old."
Looking up, I sent my reply as we pulled up in front of the apartment building. Suddenly, my phone went off in my hand telling me I had a voicemail. I put it to my ear. "I know you're on a hunt," Connor's voice started off, "But the second it's done I want you on your way here. I will call Dean later to get you here. We need to talk. And it will be a long one."
I gulped hanging up. Connor knew something, and he wasn't happy. As Sam and Dean walked up to the apartment I called Connor back. "Hello?"
"Hey Con…" I said softly.
"Maddie." He growled. "How stupid are you?"
"Um…" I didn't know how to answer that.
"I hear you've found your brother."
"…How?" I demanded surprised.
"It doesn't matter how!" I gulped. "I want you here after that hunt. Am I clear?"
"Yes sir." I whispered.
"Good." He hung up.
I sighed and waited for my brothers to come back. When they finally did, we drove to a party store. I leaned over the seat and looked onto Dad's journal with Sam. Dean opened the driver's side door and got in holding a brown paper sack. "I'm not finding anything on it in Dad's journal Dean." I started laughing when he held out lottery tickets to Sam with a smile. "Dean, come on."
"What? Hey, that was my gun he was aiming at your head. My guns don't jam. So, that was a lucky break. Not to mention, them taking themselves out, also a lucky break. Here. Scratch one. Come on, Sam. Scratch and win!"
Sam sighed and took one before starting to scratch it. "Dean, it's gotta be cursed somehow. Otherwise,
Dad wouldn't have locked it up." He finished and handed the ticket back to Dean.
" Twelve hundred dollars." My eyes widened. "You just won twelve-hundred dollars." He laughed. "I don't know, man. Doesn't seem that cursed to me."
Bobby called Sam's phone and I tuned out their conversation still worried about what Connor was planning. He was pissed. It kind of reminded me of when I made my deal with Stanton. Finally, Sam hung up with Bobby as we pulled into a restaurant. "Dude." Dean smirked. "We're up fifteen grand."
Sam just shook his head unhappy. "Don't worry. Bobby will find a way to break it. Until then, I say we hit Vegas, pull a little Rain Man. You can be Rain Man."
Sam sighed. "We just lay low until Bobby calls back, okay?" We walked into the restaurant. To the owner he said, "Hi. Table for three, please."
"Congratulations!" He shouted causing me to jump.
"Exciting, I know." Dean smirked.
"You are the one-millionth guest of the Biggerson's restaurant family!" The owner bent down and handed us a giant check that rewarded us in free food. Employee's came up and snapped a picture causing me to blink rapidly. I think only Dean smiled in this one as streamers rained down us.
A little later I was eating this mountain of Oreo ice cream with a brownie as Dean wolfed down his desert. "Bobby's right. This lore goes way back – pure hoodoo. You can't just cut one off any rabbit. It has to be in a cemetery, under a full moon, on a Friday the thirteenth."
"Damn." I said taking another bite.
Dean looked up. "I think from now on, we only go to places with Biggerson's." I rolled my eyes but giggled as he clutched his forehead from a brain freeze.
The waitress came up to the table then. I raised my eyebrow at her short black hair. Instantly, I could tell it was a wig. "Can I freshen you up?"
"Yeah, sure. Thanks." Sam pushed his cup to her before turning back to the laptop.
The waitress refilled his coffee cup, smiling flirtatiously, but then she accidentally spilt some of the coffee on the table. "Oh!"
Sam pushed his laptop out of the way. "Oh, no worries. That's okay. I got it."
She ignored him and wiped the coffee up with a rag. "It's no trouble, really."
"Okay." Sam smiled a little.
"Sorry about that." She leaned in close giggling.
"That's all right."
Giving him a smile, she walked away and my two brothers checked her out as she left causing me to roll my eyes. "Dude. If you were ever gonna get lucky." Dean smirked.
"Shut up." Just then, he grabbed his coffee cup, and it fell out of his hand, spilling all over the table and into his lap. He stood up, trying to avoid the spill, and knocks over a waiter passing through. The waiter and his tray of food fall to the floor. "Oh! Oh, jeez! Sorry!"
I looked at Dean. "How is that good?" Sam over turned his coat pocket and my eyes widened seeing the rabbit's foot was gone. "Son of a bitch!"
We stood and ran out of the restaurant. "Come on." Dean ushered. We ran through the parkinglot when Sam suddenly tripped over his own feet and came crashing down. "Wow. You suck." He helped or brother up. "So, what, now your luck turns bad?"
"I guess." He sighed.
"I wonder how bad."
The three of us walked back to "Grossman's" apartment to talk to him about the rabbit's foot. As we walked back to the car, Dean's phone rang. "Hello?…Bobby, that's great. Except Sam, uh…Sam lost the foot…"
I looked back and watched as Sam stepped on gum. I rolled my eyes and looked straight ahead again. "Bobby, listen. This hot chick stole it from him. I'm serious: in her mid-twenties, and she was sharp, you know? Good enough of a con to play us…And she only gave the guys she hired a name – probably an alias or something. "Luigi" or something?"
"Lugosi." Sam and I said together.
"Lugosi." He repeated to Bobby. "Bela Lugosi? That's cute…She knew about the rabbit's foot. Is she a hunter?…Well, I guess she's back…"Great." … " Thanks, Bobby. Again."
Once Dean hung up we both turned to our brother who was sulking. "What?" I questioned.
Sam pouted. "I lost my shoe."
Dean and I looked down and saw his foot, which was shoeless. Dean rolled his eyes and I tried hard not to giggle as we walked away.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
An hour later we were pulling into a motel parking lot."All right, Bobby, thanks. We owe you another one." Dean hung up the phone. "All right, Bobby's got a pretty good authority that this Bela chick lives in Queens. So, it'll take Maddie and me about two hours to get there."
"So, what are we doing here?" Sam asked.
"You, my brother, are staying here because I don't want your bad luck getting us killed."
I smirked as Dean went in and got a room key for Sam. "So what am I even supposed to do, Dean?" Sam demanded as we walked in.
"Nothing, nothing. Come here. I don't want you doing anything." Dean pulled out a chair from the table and placed it in the middle of the room. I want you to sit right here and don't move, okay? Don't turn on the light, don't turn off the light. Don't even scratch your nose."
I smiled at Sam widely before walking out of the motel room with Dean. About twenty minutes into the drive, I looked over at Dean, "Can you drop me off at Connor's after we get Sam's luck back?"
"Huh, he left a voicemail on my phone asking the same thing. Everything okay?"
"Yeah, we just wanna hang out, now that you guys know I'm pregnant and everything."
Dean sighed, "I really should kick your ass, then kill you for that." I looked down and bit my lip hard. "Look, it's too late for me to give you the sex talk and shit, but you have a choice you need to make. If you're keeping it or-"
"I'm keeping my baby, Dean." I interrupted. "He's gonna be a half demon, that alone is too much for anyone to handle. I'll have Stanton who agreed that when he's born we're gonna bind his powers till he's old enough so he won't hurt himself."
"That's good I guess." Dean sighed. "It's just…you're only seventeen Maddie."
"I know Dean…I didn't plan this. We only had sex once and-"
"Whoa!" Dean interrupted. "I really don't wanna hear the rest of that sentence."
I smirked. Finally, we arrived in Queens at Bela's apartment. I smirked again seeing how fancy it was. Easily, we disarmed her alarm system and posted a sticky note on it. In a matter of minutes we watched as she spun around to face us. Dean and I had our guns pointed at her. She aimed her gun back at us.
"You left without your tip." Dean deadpanned.
"You're gonna give it back." I motioned.
She laughed. ":Sweetie, no, I'm not."
"Yeah, we'll see. Bela, right?" Dean asked.
"That's right, Dean. Oh…and Maddie."
"You know the thing is cursed, don't you?" I demanded.
"You'd be surprised what some people would pay for something like that."
"Really?"
"There's a lucrative market out there. A lot of money to be made. You hunters, with all those amulets and talismans you use to stop those big, bad monsters – any one of them could put your children's children through college."
Dean nodded. "So, you know the truth about what's really going on out there, and this is what you decide to do with it? You become a thief?"
"I procure unique items for a select clientele."
I smirked. "Yeah. You're a thief."
"No. A great thief."
"Look, Bela. Our brother – he touched the foot. And when you took it from him, his luck went from—" Dean tried.
She interrupted. "I know how it works."
"So then, you know he's gonna die unless we can destroy it."
"Oh. You can have the foot." She then smirked. "For one-point-five million."
Dean and I fake laughed. "Nice. Yeah, I'll just call my banker. How'd you even find the damn thing? Stuck in the back of some storage place in the middle of nowhere?"
She looked back at the Ouija board mounted on the wall. "I just asked a few of the ghosts of the people it had killed. They were very attuned into its location."
"So, you're only out for yourself, huh? It's all about Number One?"
"Being a hunter is so much more noble? A bunch of obsessed revenge-driven sociopaths trying to save a world that can't be saved?"
"Oh, aren't you a glass half-full." I commented.
"We're all going to hell, Dean. Might as well enjoy the ride."
I grew silent and tightened my grip on my gun as Dean replied. "I actually agree with you there. Anywho, this has been charming, but look at the time. Oh, and this?" I smirked as he held up the rabbit's foot. "Looks like you're not the only one with sticky fingers. If it's any consolation, I think you're a truly awful person." I ducked as she suddenly shot at us several times but missed. Dean smirked and showed off the foot. In return, Bela shot once more, missing again. "See ya!"
I laughed as we ran off to the impala.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Dean and I ran into the motel room just in time to see one of two of Gorden's hunter buddies. As he pointed the gun at Sam, Dean and I entered with our guns pointed at him. "Nope. No destiny. Just a rabbit's foot." Dean smirked.
One of the guys smirked at us. "Put the gun down, kids, or you're gonna be scraping your brain off the wall."
Dean looked down at his gun as I smirked and lowered mine. "Oh, this thing?"
"Yeah, that thing."
"Okay." He put his gun down on the table. "But you see, there's something about me that you don't know."
"Yeah? What would that be?" The guy and turned his gun onto Dean.
"It's my lucky day." He grabbed a pen from the end table and threw it: it landed right in the barrel of the guy's gun, jamming it. "Oh, my God! Did you see that shot?" The other guy finally made a move to punch Dean, but he easily moved out of the way making the guy fly into the wall, knocking himself out. "I'm amazing." Just as the guy removed the pen, Dean hit him in the head with the TV remote and he was knocked out as well. "I'm Batman."
I smirked and Sam rolled his eyes. "Yeah. You're Batman."
An hour later we were standing in a cemetery to get rid of the rabbit's foot once and for all. I stared into the fire thinking for a second as Sam sprinkled some powder into it. "All right. Bone ash, cayenne pepper – that should do it."
"One second." Dean muttered while scratching off more lottery tickets.
"Dean." Sam and I said together.
"Hey," He smirked at Sam. "Back off, Jinx. I'm bringing home the bacon." Smiling, he went to his jacket and put the tickets in his pocket. He then brought the rabbit's foot over to the fire. "All right. Say goodbye, Wascally Wabbit."
"I think you'll find that belongs to me." A voice from behind smirked. We all turned to see Bela standing there with her gun raised. "Or, you know…whatever. Put the foot down, honey."
"No. You're not gonna shoot anybody. See, I happen to be able to read people. Okay, you're a thief. Fine. But you're not—" Suddenly, she shot Sam in the shoulder. My eyes widened as he fell to the ground clutching his shoulder.
"Son of a—" I went towards her.
"Back off, tiger. Back off. You make one more move, and I'll pull the trigger. You've got luck, Dean and Maddie's pregnant with a demon. You two, I can't hit. But your brother? Him, I can't miss."
Dean glared. "What the hell is wrong with you? You don't just go around shooting people like that!"
"Relax. It's a shoulder hit. I can't aim. Besides, who here hasn't shot a few people?" We stayed silent. "Put the rabbit's foot on the ground, now."
"All right! All right, take it easy." He bent down and made it look like he was going to put the foot down. "Think fast." He suddenly tossed it to Bela, who caught it. We all smirked.
"Damn."
"Now, what do you say we destroy that ugly-ass piece of dead thing?"
Bela sighed, but tossed it into the fire. We watched as it burnt. "Thanks very much. I'm out one and a half million, and on the bad side of a very powerful, fairly psychotic buyer."
"Wow. I really don't feel bad about that. Sam? Maddie?"
"Nope." I smirked at her.
"Not even a little." Sam finished.
"Hm. Maybe next time, I'll hang you out to dry." She leaned on Dean's jacket smirking.
"Aw, don't go away angry. Just go away." Dean cooed.
"Have a nice night, boys." She looked at "Maddie, baby." She smirked and walked away.
Once the foot was finished burning we grabbed out things and started towards the car. "You good?" Dean asked Sam.
"I'll live."
"I guess we're back to normal now, huh? No good luck, no bad luck. Oh! I forgot. We're up forty-six thousand dollars. I almost forgot about the scratch tickets." Suddenly his smile faded as he checked his pocket. Just then, Bela drove past the cemetery honking her horn. "Son of a bitch!"
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Biting my lip I sat in the office waiting. Dean thought I was at Connor's when really I wasn't going there till Monday. "Ready to go?" Jinx asked me popping her head in the door.
"Yeah." I stood up, "I'm ready."
I followed her outside and hopped into the passenger seat of Aiden's car. He smirked at me and backed out of the driveway. It was weird; I was in my "older" twin's car as we drove out of state. I finally found my brother, and even though he was evil, I could feel us having a certain kind of relationship. We talk everyday now, and we're becoming closer. I liked this. I liked having him in my life. Evil or not, Aiden is my twin, and Jinx, Stefan, and Isaac are becoming like my family.
I know that I have been warned about my brother, but honestly, I don't believe he'll do anything to hurt me, based on how close we've become…it seems like he was trying to find me as well. Again, he may be evil, but that just makes Aiden…Aiden.
He's my brother, and we will always be there for each other. Always.
