My alarm isn't due to go off for ages but I'm lying in my bed, wide awake. Which is weird because I hate mornings. I suppose time travelling will do that to you. I look at the clock, 6am, I really have no hope of falling back to sleep now. I stretch and pull myself out of bed, I get dressed and quickly apply my make-up. There is no way anyone is seeing me looking anything less than alive. A girls gotta have standards.

I creep quietly out of my bedroom and head to the bathroom, brushing my teeth and sorting my hair as I come around completely. Next, I head to the kitchen and help myself to some cereal, as quietly as I can. I sit at the table, munching away and get lost in my own thoughts and plans for a while.

"Who are you?" A voice says suddenly, this causes me to drop my spoon, which makes a loud, clattering sound, tip my bowl over as I jump and scream. Yes, scream. Like a scared little child. Urgh. I spin round to see who tried to scare the living daylights out of me and notice a beige trenchcoat, then a black suit and tie. My eyes travel to the face and see a blue pair staring back at me, head cocked to one side with a curious expression. I'm about to speak when Sam comes running into the kitchen.

"What's happened?" He says, clearly alarmed.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to wake you. Castiel make me jump and I've made a right mess." I set about clearing up and notice that Cass hasn't moved.

"How do you know my name?" He's still looking at me with that curious expression, this makes me smile.

"Oh, sorry Cass. We completely forgot to call you to let you know what's happening here." Sam explains. "This is Savannah, she's from the year 2040 and she's come back here to ask for our help."

"And you trust her?" There's no maliciousness in the question, just a genuine wanting to know.

"Erm...yeah. Yeah, I do." Sam shrugs, he's surprised himself, I can tell by his expression.

Cass considers Sam's answer for a moment before striding towards me. I'm concerned at first but I stand my ground, he looks me up and down before, seemingly, deciding that I was okay and sticks out his hand.

"In that case, its nice to meet you, Savannah." He says warmly and I take his hand to shake it.

"What the hell are you all doing up at 6.30?! In the morning?!" says the groggy voice of Dean, angrily.

"Hello Dean. I have been introduced to Savannah, so there is no need for you to tell me about her now." Cass replies.

"Well, yeah Cass, obviously I wouldn't- You know what? Never mind. Coffee. Bacon. Both. Now." Dean demands, making us all laugh.

A little while later, when everyone is awake, we all sit down at the library table. I can't wait to get started, the quicker I do, the quicker everyone survives.

"Ok, so, Savannah, we've been talking." Sam begins as he, Dean, Cass and Jack all look at me. "We want to help you, we do, but whatever you're planning is obviously dangerous. It always is in this line of work. We, erm, we were thinking you could, maybe, wait a while."

"What? No! I need to do this. I have to see this through." I'm panicking, I have a plan, I need to follow it.

"Relax, kid, we're not saying no, never. But we've all been where you are, wanting to save your family and we've all made deals and we know that's what you're planning." He eyes me. I keep quiet, this isn't what was supposed to happen. I was meant to be in and done within a week, tops.

"You just need to make sure that you've thought it through. Whatever you're planning. That its worth it, that whoever you left behind won't be hurt and that you won't regret it." This time its Jack who is speaking, his voice gentle and his eyes soft and kind.

"So, what, I'm a prisoner now?" I know that's pathetic but I don't care.

"No, no, of course not." Jack answers.

"You're a hunter, right?" Sam asks and I nod. "Maybe you could join us for a bit? Do some hunting, enjoy life, relax a little."

"Until when? Until I change my mind and go back without doing anything? Without trying?" I'm still mad.

"Give it a few weeks. If you still want to go through with your plan then we'll help." Dean says, sincerely this time.

I lean back in my chair and mull it over. It might be nice to live the life a little. I had hunting experience with my uncle and it'd be great to expand my knowledge. It'd give me a chance to get to know everyone better, before I went. I wouldn't change my mind, I still need to save my family but I suppose I can spare a week or two.

"Fine. I'm still going through with my plan but fine." I sigh.

Jack beams and Sam breathes a sigh of relief. Dean and Cass remain indifferent but, underneath, I know they both hope to save me. That's just who they are. Heroes, who hate to think of themselves as such but save whoever they can. All 4 have the weight of the world of their shoulders so I vow to help them however I can. The angels are still after Jack and his powers, the Empty is waiting for its moment to take Cass and Michael is locked away in Dean's mind, pounding on the door to be let out. But its Sam, he doesn't know it yet but in a few weeks, Lucifer will be back and he'll come for his perfect vessel. Then two brothers will go to war.

So I can only spare a week or two.
