The hotel was more beautiful than I imagined. I was tempted to grab and room and sleep for days. The ceiling looked like it went on forever. There were a few people in the lobby but not many. They all looked like rich people. If there was ever a time where we stood out in the crowd like a sore thumb, this was it. Every inch of the place looked so expensive it had to be the best of its kind. Even the chandelier was stunning and seemed to scream money. Danni caught me staring up and tapped my arm.

"Come on," She said. "We have to go." I hated to admit it, but she was right. The demon was waiting. I could feel it. Just a few floors up and it would have me again. The four of us entered the elevator, ignoring the strange looks we were getting from everyone. I felt the gun on the inside of my jacket. It was still there, thankfully. I was ready for anything. The whole way up to the ninth floor, Dean had a stupid smile on his face.

"Why are you so happy about this? I mean, it's not like my life is on the line or anything." I said sarcastically. Dean wrapped an arm around my shoulder, still smiling.

"Because, this is going to be fun." He winked and I shoved him off. It didn't make any sense. Normally, you didn't have to repossess a body just to get rid of a demon. All we had to do was find the body it was possessing and kill the demon inside. It was that easy. Well, for a hunter anyway.

The number 913 stared back at me as we reached the door. I wasn't sure if I was ready for this. None of them knew it was Deumos. A female demon who caused fear and dread in people. Not to mention, she got jealous reallyeasily. She would reproduce with humans to make human-demon babies. I had killed a few of them but she had been reproducing with humans for years.

"Scared?" Dean asked, almost laughing. I was about ready to punch him. I gripped the handle and soon wished I hadn't. It felt cold and my heart was racing. Deumos was on the other side, watching every second of us. I could feel it. I had to build up courage I didn't have and open the door. "Hello?" Dean called as he stepped in first. "Are there any dirt bags in here?" Leave it to Dean to offend a demon just to get them out.

"Oh I get it," he continued. "You're afraid to show your ugly face. Is that?" Danni gently pushed me in as her and Sam followed. The second I stepped in the room was the moment I felt a familiar feeling. I felt cold, sad, scared and above all else, numb. Deumos was back inside of me.

~Dean's POV~

"Come on, you sick ba-" I began but a hand touched my shoulder. I turned around and Ellie was smiling at me this time.

"Now, now, Dean. There's no need for name calling." She winked and I stepped back. Clearly, this wasn't Ellie. I was actually surprised the plan had worked. I figured we needed to tie Ellie to the bed or to a chair and do a summoning ritual. Ellie closed her eyes and raised her arms in the arm. "It feels so good to be back in this body, again." Danni came from behind and wacked her on the back of the head, knocking her out.

"That'll teach you to mess with my sister." She muttered and looked up at us. "Let's kill this thing." Sam and I exchanged looks and smiled.

"You're girlfriend's got spunk." I joked.

"Shut up, Dean." Sammy said, though I saw both Danni and Sam blushing as we picked up Ellie's body and tied her to the chair. Ellie's hair fell past her face as her head hung low. I grabbed the can of spray from Sam's bag and began making the usual marks around the chair. Danni even helped as she showed me the right symbols to draw. When I was finished, I stood back and admired my work. Sam dug through his bag and pulled out a small bottle.

"What's that?" I asked, curiously.

"Just something to wake up sleeping beauty." I raised an eyebrow, not liking the sound of that. I didn't like it when Sammy hid stuff from me. He uncorked the bottle and waved it in front of Ellie's nose. Her head immediately shot up and she was smiling.

"Hmm, sheep's blood." She looked at Sam, wishing she could have a taste.

"Dude, sheep's blood?" I began to wonder if he had actually killed the sheep. Sam didn't answer. Instead, he turned to the demon that was staring back at us. The demon looked at me but, for a moment, I forgot it was a demon. Ellie's eyes stared at me, all innocent. I had a weakness for innocent women. Sam began chanting in Latin as Danni and I just watched. The demon writhed in pain until finally she screamed. Ellie's head hung low, once again. None of us said anything. Finally, Danni broke the silence.

"Ellie?" She said cautiously. Ellie lifted her head and almost looked scared.

"Dean, please. Untie me." She begged as she caught my eyes. Those eyes were drawing me in. I almost did as she asked me to do. Danni had to place a hand on my shoulder to stop me. "Come on, Dean. Please. The demon is gone. It's me. Danni," She said turning to her sister. "Really. The demon is gone. I can feel it."

"What?" I asked Danni. Ellie had said it herself. The demon was gone. Danni was shaking her head.

"Something doesn't feel right." Danni pulled a bottle out of her bag and offered it to Ellie. "Drink." Ellie looked at her like she was crazy. It was a good idea. Just to be sure. Suddenly, I too, felt that something wasn't right. As if, Sam's chanting didn't work.

"Oh come on. Danni, I don't need to drink it. It's me. The demon is gone." But Danni wasn't buying it. She threw some water on Ellie's face and steam began to rise. The demon hadn't left. "Why you little, whore!" The demon screamed.

"Sam, are you sure you said the right words?" He nodded and checked his book again.

"Dean, I swear. I chanted every single word." Sam pulled out his laptop and started to do more research. But I didn't know how he was going to do it when he didn't even know what kind of demon this was. "What's your name?" Sam asked. The demon smiled and shook her head.

"You have to kiss me first." She winked and Sam went back to his computer. Now, true be told, I wouldn't have mind kissing Ellie but I wouldn't kiss her with a demon inside. That was a turn off right there. Even if she was beautiful.

"Wait," Danni said. "How is that this demon can possess Ellie?" She asked me and Sam. "Ellie got a tattoo in jail to prevent this from happening again."

"Because," The demon said answering her question. "I placed my own tattoo on the inside of her body. Call it a counter tattoo to the one she got. But the tattoo only works on me. Thus, this body will be mine forever." The demon turned to me with a smile. "So, come on Dean. Want to play?" I would have said yes if we were alone in the room and if there wasn't a demon in her body.

"Dean," Sam said as he got me out of my train of thought. "Look at this. Her name's Deumos. She's a demon who feeds on the hearts of children and loves sheep's blood. Go figure." Sam sighed before continuing. "There's only one way to send her back for good." He pointed to the screen and allowed me to read. My eyes went wide. It looked hard but easy at the same time.

"Alright," I sighed. "Let's do it." Sam handed me his knife and I turned to Ellie. She was smiling and I nearly forgot about the whole thing. But I had to concentrate. I had to get Ellie back.

"Oh come on, Dean. I know you want to play with me. You even dreamed about me last night. Well, here's your chance." Sam raised his eyebrows as I had forgotten to mention that. Danni didn't look very impressed either. I mentally slapped myself, reminding my brain that this was, in fact, a demon. Not Ellie.

"Right hand, Dean." Sammy told me.

"Yup." I nodded and began carving. It killed me to do it. To mark something in such beautiful skin. Danni looked away. She couldn't watch. The whole time Ellie was screaming begging for me to stop and begging for Danni to help her. Somehow I finished and Sammy began chanting other words in Latin. This time, the demon was shaking as if she were cold and in pain. Steam was rising from her body. Finally, a thick black smoke erupted from her mouth and vanished. Ellie collapsed in the chair, blood running down her hand and nose.

"Ellie?" Danni said. It took awhile but Ellie finally lifted her head up once again. Danni grabbed the holy water and told Ellie to drink. This time she did and nothing happened. The demon was gone and Ellie was back.

~Ellie's POV~

My nose was hurting but it was nothing compared to my hand. I was able to watch the whole thing but I couldn't say anything or move. It was like watching TV without turning the channel. Danni wiped my nose and bandaged my aching hand. It was feeling better but it still hurt to move it. But it was worth it. Deumos was gone and I would never have to be in contact with her again. Sam made sure of it when he used the right incantation. No one said anything as we left the room. But as we walked down the hallway, something caught my eye.

"Hey guys," I called to the others who kept walking. "Check this out." None of them turned around. "Guys!" Still nothing. The door next to me swung open, like I was being taunted. This wasn't Deumos's doing. She wouldn't play with my head this way. I turned back to the others but they were gone.

This way. A voice whispered to me, beckoning. I had no choice but to follow.

"Hello?" I called as I walked in the room. The door slammed shut. I tried the handle but it was locked.

"Baby?" A voice said behind me. I turned around and looked at a familiar face. The room was completely different. I wasn't in a hotel room. I was in a house. Not to mention, a kitchen.

"Dean?" I asked, curious.

"Sweetie, are you ok?" He asked again. Sweetie? Why was he calling me sweetie? "Is the door stuck again?" I turned back to the door. It was smaller than before. "Have no fear, your man is here." He winked and kissed my cheek. Out of shock, I moved aside. His lips print left an invisible mark. I could still feel its warmth. Dean tugged on the door and finally it came open. "See? It's just a little tricky." He smiled and wrapped his arms around my waist. I had no idea what was going on. One minute I was in a hotel and the next I was here and Dean's kissing me. I was about to say something but he put a hand up.

"I know, I know. I'll fix it. I just haven't been able to find the right oil. But once I do that door will be as good as new." I gawked at him. He was talking as if we…No. It couldn't be. This wasn't real. I backed up and he looked at me. "Ellie, babe, are you ok?" Another voice caught my attention.

"Mommy!" A little girl walked in crying. She couldn't have been more than one. Out of instinct, I picked her up too shocked for words.

"What's wrong Katie?" Dean asked. "Did those boys push you again?" Katie shook her head and rested her head on my shoulder. Katie lifted up her elbow to indicate that she had hurt it somehow. Dean leaned down and kissed her elbow. Katie turned her elbow to me, wanting the same thing from me. I kissed her elbow and she smiled that it was all better. I put her down where she ran back in the living room. As I moved my hand, I saw my finger. A bright silver band glistened in the sun light. I was married to Dean and I had his child.

"Dean!" A voice shouted from the other room. It was Sam.

"What's Sam doing here?" I asked, not really thinking. I was glad that he was here but why? We were all just in a hotel trying to kill a demon that had possessed me for the second time.

"Just a minute!" Dean shouted back before turning back to me. "He and Danni are here for the game, you know that. Are you sure you're all right?" I shook my head and held my head. This was too weird. "You feel ok? Is it the baby?" He touched my stomach and I realized I had a little lump. I was pregnant. Without a word, I walked into the living room. Sam and Danni were sitting on the couch.

"Hey, do you need help in the kitchen?" Danni asked me. A small baby bounced up and down in her arms. She also had a ring on her finger. "Are you ok? You look sick." I ran upstairs, hoping to find the door again to the hotel. Instead, I found a room with someone in it. A man sat in a rocky chair and he was smiling at me.

"Hello, Ellie. It's nice to finally meet you." He said. "Please, come in. It is your room, after all."

"Who are you?" I asked. Again, the door closed behind me and locked.

"I'm called the Trickster. You must sit. You need to stay off your feet. Doctor's orders after that little dizzy spell."

"This isn't real." I told him shaking my head. The Trickster clicked his tongue and shook his head.

"But it is. At least, that is, if Dean says yes." It took a moment to register exactly what he was talking about. "Sam and Dean need to play their roles in this game."

"Last time I checked, the Apocalypse wasn't a game. Now take me back." I ordered. The Trickster shook his head again. "Why? Don't know how?" I asked. The Trickster glared at me and snapped his fingers. Instantly, I was back in the hotel room and everything was back the way it was. My stomach was gone and the ring on my finger had disappeared. I tried the knob but it wouldn't turn. It was still locked.

"Listen here, girl." The Trickster said. I turned around, annoyed that this stupid…whatever he was…was trying to tell me what to do. "Get Sam and Dean to say yes or you'll get a future like you've never imagined." He disappeared and I was left alone.

"Ellie!" Dean banged on the door. "Ellie! Answer me!"

"I'm here!" I yelled.

"Step back!" Dean told me. I did so and the second I told him I had he kicked it open. Danni rushed to hug me. But I looked at Dean. We had a child together as well as another one on the way. He was relieved that I was ok but he had been worried about me.

"Are you ok? You've been in there for an hour!" Danni cried. "I thought you were dead." I pulled back and looked at her strangely.

"An hour?" I asked. Sam and Dean nodded.

"We tried everything. Yelling, screaming, kicking the door down. Dean even shot it, scaring a few people in the hotel but nothing could tear the room down." But I had only been gone a few minutes. I couldn't have been gone an hour unless the Trickster had something to do with it. "What happened?" I was afraid to explain. So I didn't. I just shook my head, telling them I didn't remember. I could tell Dean didn't believe me but he didn't say anything.

We drove back to the hotel without a word. That night I couldn't sleep. I sat outside. I didn't jump when I felt a light breeze. Castiel sat next to me.

"Cass, what was that today? He showed me my future." Castiel looked at me shocked.

"Who showed you the future?" He asked in his deep voice. Let me tell you, for an angel deep voices were hot. But that was beside the point.

"He called himself The Trickster. He showed me what happened if Sam and Dean both said yes." I shook my head. "I didn't believe it. It was too….perfect."

"His name is Gabriel." Cass sighed.

"Gabriel? You mean the one who…" Cass nodded before I could finish. He was Michael's pet but I knew he planning something more.

"The future he showed you wasn't the right one. At least, if they both say yes." I couldn't believe what I was hearing. After seeing all that, I wanted both boys to say yes. They earth was free of any evil. SamandDean were still alive including me and my sister and I had children. I didn't even care that it was with Dean.

"So what's the real future?" I asked, afraid to.

"Only one brother can survive. There's no way they can both live. Not after Sam released Lucifer." I ran my fingers through my hair. This was too much. Castiel turned to me, even more serious than he had been. His eyes were on me like glue with that look. He pulled up a finger to add emphasis. "Only one has to say yes."

"Will they both still live?" I asked, hoping he would say yes. But I blinked and he was gone. My question still unanswered. I cursed under my breath. Stupid angels, messing with my head like that. How was I supposed to get Dean to say yes if I didn't even know if they would both still live?

"Hey," A voice said beside me making me jump. "You ok?" I looked up at Dean who looked worried. I nodded but then shook my head. Dean walked back in and came back out with a blanket. He wrapped it around me and I couldn't get that image out of my head. I was married to him with a little girl. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. She had my face but Dean's eyes. Her name was Katie. The name I had always wanted to name my child. Dean sat next to me as I hugged the blanket tighter. "What's going on?"

"I'm just so confused." I said shaking my head. Not only were Dean and Sam being pressured but now I was. He had to say yes to the vessel but I didn't know if he would even make it after the war was over. I wanted to see that little girl again but I didn't know how I was going to if Dean wasn't by my side. Dean watched me, waiting for me to explain. "Why can't these angels leave me alone?" I said in a whisper but Dean still heard me.

"What are you talking about? Did Zachariah come see you in that room?" I shook my head, not really knowing who Zachariah was.

"Gabriel." Dean tensed as I said just the one word. I didn't blame him. "He showed me the future if both of you said yes." Dean said nothing as I continued to tell him everything, including our daughter and future child. I couldn't leave them out because they were part of the reason why I was so afraid of the choices Dean and Sam would make. I wanted those children with every fiber of my being. "But Castiel told me it was a lie. It wasn't the real future." I could feel tears forming in my eyes. "Only one of you has to say yes but I don't know what's going to happen whichever one of you does." For awhile Dean just sat there staring at the road. If he looked even harder, he would have burned a hole in the street. "Dean, say something."

"What do you want me to say, Ellie? Yes?" He was furious but he wasn't shouting. He didn't want to wake Danni and Sam.

"I don't know because I don't know what's going to happen to you? Is Sam going to have to live without his brother? Am going to-" I stopped myself. It was still a little weird saying it. I wasn't even sure if I was even capable of saying it. "I'm not sure what you should decide."

"There's a way around this. I know it. We just have to find that loop hole." I smiled and shook my head. He was almost as stubborn as I was.

"There may not be one this time." I told him. Dean didn't answer. "I want to have Katie." I whispered almost crying. "She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.

"Then let's go make Katie." He smirked but I slapped his arm playfully.

"You know we can't do that. I know you don't want to raise her in this world. Not when the Apocalypse is almost near." Dean nodded and wrapped an arm around my shoulder. Neither one of us knew what to do. No one knew what to do.
