Kat and Dean lay asleep in one of the single beds of the cheap motel room they had booked into the previous night. She ran her hand up Dean's arm that was situated across her waist preventing her from falling out of the tiny bed. He lay face down; the arm not around Kat was underneath his pillow. She lay staring at the ceiling, the atmosphere between the boys had gone and things were getting better. The door of the room creaked open and Sam came into the room holding coffee, donuts and tea. He slammed the door startling Dean causing him to wake up.

"Mornin' sunshine" He mocked Dean as Kat stretched.

"Hey Sammy" A yawn escaped her mouth.

"What time is it?" Dean sat up pushing the covers off of himself.

"5:45" He sat down on the bed next to theirs.

"In the morning?" Kat and Dean exclaimed in unison.

"Yep" Sam smiled.

"Come on Sammy" Kat lay back down pulling the pillow over her eyes.

"Did you get any sleep last night?" Dean pulled the covers over her.

"I grabbed a couple of hours"

"Liar. Cause I was up at three, and you were watchin' the George Foreman infomercial"

"Hey, what can I say? It's riveting TV"

"When was the last time you got a good night's sleep sweetie?" Kat's muffled voice came from under the pillow.

"I don't know. A little while, I guess. It's not a big deal" She took the pillow off of her face and sat up as he spoke.

"Yeah, it is. Sam if you're not on top of your game you could-" Sam cut her off.

"Look, I appreciate your concern-" Dean cut him off.

"Oh, I'm not concerned about you. It's your job to keep my ass alive, so I need you sharp. (Sam shrugged) Seriously, are you still havin' nightmares about Jess?"

"Yeah (He handed Dean a cup of coffee) but it's not just her. It's everything. I just forgot, you know? This job—man, it gets to you. Kat I got you tea I wasn't sure if you liked coffee or not so ..."

"You know despite the wisdom of Family guy not all British people sit around drinking tea and playing cricket"

"I'm sorry I, I just ..."

"Sammy I'm kidding, thanks" (She took the tea and pulled the white plastic lid off of the cup) "Sammy, sweetie you can't bring it home like that" She sipped at her tea.

"So, what? All this, it never keeps you up at night?" (Dean shook his head) Never? You're never afraid?"

"No, not really" He smiles weakly. Kat reached under Dean's pillow and pulled out a knife.

"That's not fear. That is precaution" He took it out of her hands and ruffled her hair.

"All right, whatever. I'm too tired to argue" Sam sipped his coffee as Dean's phone began to ring. He leaned over Kat and took it off the bedside table.

"Hey Sammy pass me a doughnut please and ... yes Sammy I still get nightmares from the day my parents died" Before Sam could respond Dean's conversation caught their attention.

"Hello? ... Oh, right, yeah, up in Kittanning, Pennsylvania, the poltergeist thing. It's not back, is it? ... What is it? ... We'll be right there"

Kat and Sam leaned against the hood of the Impala waiting for Dean.

"What do you think Kat? You have been doing this along time ever seen anything like this before?"

"Well the noises on the recording sounded like a demon to me but why it would want to total a plane I have no idea" Dean approaches them waving a set of fake ID's.

"Homeland security that's pretty illegal sweetie" Kat smirked.

"Yeah right like this is the most illegal thing we have ever done?" Kat considered his words for a moment.

"True I mean there was that time we, oh no the wait that other time that we ... (She sighed) good times" She smiled.

"Yeah, you know it Kitkat" He returner her smile.

"Yeah well sorry to interrupt your trip down memory lane but check this out" Sam gestured for them to join him inside the car. They get into the front and turn to face him in the backseat; he played them the recording from the cockpit voice recorder.

"No survivors"

"There were seven survivors. So ... what does this mean?" Sam closed his laptop. Kat looked up to Dean. He shrugged. "Could be a hunted flight like 401 or it could be a phantom traveller ..." Kat chewed on her bottom lip.

"You're so cute when you think" Dean smiled at her attempted to ruffle her hair but she smacked his hand away.

"Right so I think we should go see this guy Max Jaffey, he's from round here and if anyone saw anything weird it was him" Sam handed Dean a few papers.

"Why?" Kat questioned him.

"Well, I spoke to his mother, and she told me where to find him. Riverfront Psychiatric Hospital"

"Well that's a promising sign" Dean started the engine as Kat's phone rang. The name Daniel Elkins flashed on the screen.

"Uncle Danny are you alright?" Kat's voice held a strong tone of worry.

"Hey kido, how are ya?" His strong British accent was a sound she had missed greatly.

"Great hang on, Dean I'm gonna take this call I'll meet you back in the motel later" He nodded and she got out the car and waved good bye to the brothers.

"I thought I'd give you a call see how you're doing" She started to walk back towards there motel.

"Yeah don't take this the wrong way but that doesn't sound like you" She pulled her jacket across her chest. Well not her jacket exactly it was Deans; she commandeered it earlier when they were travailing in the Impala.

"... I heard your travailing with Dean Winchester" Kat's face dropped, Dean was not a subject she wanted to discuss with her uncle.

"Yeah and his brother Sam; why is there something wrong with that?" Her voice turned cold and harsh.

"Well their Winchesters so yeah" He spoke as if she should know better.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Dean had been good to her since the day they meet.

"You can't trust em'" Kat was getting increasingly angrier.

"I assume you're talking about John?"

"Yeah, why you hunting with him?"

"No, he's gone"

"Gone?"
"Yeah, vanished, disappeared however you want to put it"

"So you and Dean?" The way he spoke made it clear it was a question.

"What about us?"

"Where due' meet him?"

"In a bar"

"So your-"

"Filled with vampires"

Kat sat at the bar of a sleazy back street club that had a bad reputation for mysterious disappearances of young girls. A man who she knew as Quinn sat in a booth surrounded by beautiful women throwing themselves at him. Kat brushed her hair behind her ear and looked over her shoulder; meeting his deep chocolate eyes. A smirk appeared on his face making him look dangerous and sexy all at the same time. Kat just turned her head knowing that a woman turning her nose up at him would drive him crazy, forcing him to make the first move. She took another sip from her drink and sure enough he appeared at the side of her.

"Is this seat taken?" His voice caused the hair on the back of her neck to stand up. It was sexy and inviting with an edge of authority. She knew he was the real deal, not small fry like the vampires she had been hunting for the past few weeks.

"I don't see anyone sitting there do you?" She didn't even turn her head towards him when she spoke.

"Feisty, I like that, names Quinn" He gestured to the bar man. "The usual" As expected he received a glass of blood red liquid. The bar was quiet as the women that had surrounded him earlier had stormed out shortly after he abandoned them for Kat. Only a few customers remained. One caught Kat's eyes on several occasions; he was a middle aged man with thick black hair and beard. He didn't fit in with the rest of the crowd. Kat's eyes wondered over to him again, another man had joined him at the table; he was about her age, handsome with the most amazing green eyes she had ever seen.

"Am I boring you ... sorry I didn't catch your name" He moved closer to her.

"I didn't give it" She moved away from him.

"Playing hard to get huh?"

"No you're not getting anything from me except –"A strong hand grabbed her arm.

"Babe there you are I've been looking all over for you" It was the green eyed man. "Sorry about her, she's a light weight when it comes to drink, sorry man" Kat pulled her arm out of his grasp and mimicked drinking and twirled his finger by his head emphasising his lie that Kat was drunk.

"Take your hands off of me" She stood up, straightening the 'little black dress' she was wearing; it hugged her curves perfectly with just the right amount of cleavage on show.

"Come on babe let's get you home, it's dangerous for a girl like you to be on your own in a place like this" He emphasised the word dangerous.

"Look pal you heard the lady let go of her" Quinn stood up and Dean pulled Kat closer to him.

"Huh and what are you gonna do about it "pal"?" Dean smirked at him and Kat knew what was coming next.

"Oh you'd be surprised" His fangs appeared from his gums. Kat instantly pulled out a sai from her boot, covered in a red liquid. She stabbed it into his chest deliberately missing his heart. Green eyes pulled a gun on the bar tender who was about to jump the bar and aid Quinn.

"You missed sugar" Quinn's smirk faded as he realised what she had done.

"Dead man's blood nice touch" The older man from before appeared at their side.

"Bitch!" Quinn attempted to launch himself at her; she kicked him in the chest sending him crashing back into his previous seat in the booth.

"Remind me not to mess with you, I'm Dean" He smiled at her.

"Kat, nice to meet you"

"I'm John; I assume you have a purpose for keeping him alive?" He gestured to Quinn.

"Oh yes (She walked over to him and pulled her sai out causing him to groan in pain" where's Luther?"

"Luther?" Dean, John and Quinn said in unison.

"Yes Luther, where is he?" Kat examined the sai.

"You're very sexy when you're angry" He smirked.

"Screw you, where is he?" She pointed the sai at him.

"Look babe I don't know" She moved it closer to his heart.

"Lies and don't call me babe" She put a small amount of pressure on the sai.

"Wait! wait! Ok, ok I know who you are talking about I just don't know where he is"

"A vampire that high up in the food chain doesn't just drop off the map"

"Look the last I heard he meet this chick, Kate or something. Soul mates and all that shit now he's playing happy families"

"Where?"

"Colorado or somewhere near there, I swear that's all I know"

"Thank you, you've been most helpful" She turned to John and Dean. John had a machete in his hand. "He's all yours boys" Kat twirled her sai in her hand and placed it back in her boot as she made her way to the door.

"Hey wait!" Dean followed her to the door, the sounds of Quinn screaming in pain echoed throughout the empty club. The bar tender had already been dealt with.

"Yeah?" Kat couldn't help but smile as she took her first proper look at his face, he was gorgeous.

"You're a hunter?"

"Yeah, Kat Elkins" She held out her hand.

"Dean Winchester" He took her hand as John came to the door covered in blood.

"Dan's niece" He used a cloth from the bar to clean his weapon.

"Err yeah, the Winchester's I'm honoured" She shook John's hand.

"Well you have quite the reputation too"

"The Kat, the vampires are terrified of you"

"Yeah well they are my speciality"

"That's awesome" Dean smirked.

"Yeah well we should get out of here before the fire brigade arrives" John threw a match into the door and the place lit up in flames.

"Hey were gonna go grab a few beers, you wanna join us?" Dean pulled out his car keys.

"Sure" Kat wasn't going to pass up a chance to have a drink with a guy that looked like that.

After a few drinks the conversation turned to business.

"So you travel alone?" Dean sat next to Kat; John had gone to get the next round in.

"Yeah, I used to travel with my uncle but he's getting old, he handles the cases closer to home" Kat finished the last of her drink.

"Don't you get lonely on your own?" He frowned at her.

"Is that a way of asking if I'm single?" Before he could answer John placed the beers on the table.

"So kid what'd ya say about coming along with us?" John took a swig of his beer.

"Well you don't mess around do you?"

"This job it's dangerous, we need to stick together and I'm sure it would put your uncle's mind at rest knowing you're not on your own"

"Yeah we could use a woman's touch" Dean winked at her.

"Well if nothing else it will be good time" Kat held her glass up. "Cheers"

"Cheers" Dean and John mimicked her actions.

"And that's it? You just thought you'd hit the road with them" Kat used her key to open the motel door.

"Yeah, it was better than flying solo. Maybe I didn't wanna be on my own anymore" She threw Dean's jacket on the bed.

"So what Dean flashes you a smile and you're in?" Kat had, had enough.

"If all your going to do is question my decisions then maybe its best if we-"

"You know about Marry?"

"Yes" Confusion filled her face.
"And rumour has it the youngest, Sam his girlfriend ended up the same" Kat knew where this was going.

"Yeah she did and?" She already knew what he was going to say next.
"Make sure you don't too, that's all I'm asking kido, I love ya, you're the only family I got left. Don't throw your life away for a Winchester"

"... Uncle Danny I-" The tone indicating that she had another call waiting cut off their conversation. "I gotta go I'll call you later"

"Take care of yourself"

"Hey Dean" She tried to forget her previous conversation.

"Hey Kat, you alright?" He could tell by the tone of her voice that something was up.

"Yeah. Yeah I'm fine"

"You can't lie to me Kitkat"

"I'm fine, how's the case going?"

"We found sulphur in the wreckage"

"How did you get in?"

"We posed as homeland security"

"You committed a serious criminal offense without me?"

"Sorry babe I'll make it up to you. Listen the planes crash after 45 minutes in the air and whatever this thing is, it's gonna finish the job. It's killing the survivors"

"Final destination style?"

"Yeah me and Sam are on our way to the airport now"

"Dean sweetie you're scared of flying"

"I know but were gonna stop the flight attendant from getting on the plane"

"Right I'll meet you there" She stood up, picked up Dean's jacket and locked the door on her way out. She got a cab to the airport but with the traffic and the distance they had to travel she got there in time to see police and paramedics all over the airport. She noticed Sam and Dean standing near the exit avoiding the police. She weaved her way through the crowd of people and over to the boys.
"Dean, sweetie are you ok?" She grabbed his face in her hands, he looked like he was about to throw up.

"Yeah, just remind me to never do that again" She tried not to laugh.

"Sam sweetie are you ok?" She noticed he had this distant look in his eyes.

"... There was this demon, he mentioned Jessica" Sam knew she wouldn't tell him to forget about it like Dean would.

"Sammy, demons they can read minds. They lie" She looked over to Dean.

"Come on" Dean interrupted them; he walked out of the door.

"Kat, tell me the truth" He half heartedly smiled.

"Sammy I – I, demons lie; they get pleasure from other peoples misfortune. Don't let it get to you, that's what it wanted" she placed her hand on his arm.

"Thanks ..." She knew he wasn't convinced but she did the best she could.

"Come on" She pulled his arm and they joined Dean as he was talking to Jerry. Kat and Sam stood at either side of Dean.

"I meant to ask you—how did you get my cell phone number, anyway? I've only had it for, like, six months" Dean put his arm around Kat's waist.

"Your dad gave it to me" Jerry began to walk away as they all exchanged curious glances.

"When did you talk to him?" Dean took a step forward.

"Well, I didn't exactly talk to him, but I called his number, and his voice message said to give you a call. Thanks again, guys" He walked away. Leaving them with a lot of unanswered questions.

Kat and Dean sat on the hood of the Impala. Kat rested her head on his shoulder.

"So how was Danny?"

"Fine" He knew she was lying.

"Fine, what did he want?"

"To see how I am, he heard I was travailing with you"

"Oh yeah, did you tell him I was looking after you?" He chuckled.

"Yeah I did" Sam came out of the store.

"I've called dad's number like fifty times, It's been out of service" He handed Kat a bottle of coke.

"Thanks Sammy" Dean got his phone out of his pocket, he dialled John's number.

"This is John Winchester. I can't be reached. If this is an emergency, call my son, Dean at 866-907-3235. He can help" Dean hung up. Tears welled in Sam's eyes as he got into the car. Kat looked up at Dean he looked as if he was on the verge of tears.

"Baby we'll find him" She kissed his cheek and stood up to join Sam in the car. Dean followed a moment later and they began driving in no particular direction in silence.
