I was glad I got a couple hours of sleep since the drive was long and boring. The destination though was worth it. It was well hidden but the 'bunker' was awesome. I loved the vintage look and the fact that it was in the middle of nowhere surrounded by nature more or less. Lulu took us into where the garage was and parked our cars. I glanced over an admired the black 1967 impala and that Lulu parked to right next to. I notice she barely even looked at the car as she got out which surprise me but the look on her face told me not to question it right now.
I followed close behind her as we walked through the door that led inside. She opened the door and invited me inside. The bunker was huge and vintage and just awesome. Lulu seemed to slump when we entered. I looked around at all the rooms we were passing and when we reached the large room that had a table to one side and tons of books on the other I paused to take it all in.
The deeper we had got in the bunker however, the clearer I could hear a man cursing. I turned to look at Lulu questionally when I caught sight of a huge man.
"Did you manage to get him?" my friend asked the Gigantor. The man turned and looked at her.
"Yeah, he's in the back room. I've been curing him with my blood since we got back. Luckily Crowley was willing to help, he distracted Dean enough so that I could dump Holy Water on him and the cuff him. Who's this?" he asked. I raised an eyebrow at the two.
"Aaa who are you and who is Dean?" I asked. Well I asked Lulu the last part and not Mr. Tall pants.
"This is Sam, and Dean is my husband," Lulu explained blushing. My jaw went slack for a second. I held up my hand before either one could say anything.
"Wait you mean to tell me that my best friend/sister got married and she didn't tell me! But she told Mr. Green Giant!" I exclaimed. Mr. Tall apparently didn't like my nickname.
"My name is Sam, not Green Giant!" he yelled frustrated and walked away. I tilted my head as I watched him leave. That was not what I was expecting but okay. I turned to Lulu.
"So since I didn't get to see your husband before or even at the wedding, can I see him now?" I asked.
"Yeah about that…" she started only to be interrupted by another man yelling from another room. I noticed Lulu cringe at the yell and by the way she seemed to be stalling, she didn't want me to meet him. I didn't understand why though? I mean we mostly grew up together and it's not like I would say anything if it was some guy who was just a civilian or a hunter. Didn't matter to me.
Mr. Giant, Sam, ran by again to shut the other man up. That was what I thought at least when the yelling stopped.
"This is Emily by the way Sam!" Lulu yelled at him. Then she turned back to me.
"We are kind of dealing with something at the moment with Dean, let's just say, he's not himself right now. But you will get to meet him," she told me. I raised an eyebrow at her.
"Like what? You know I could possibly help right? I haven't forgotten anything Bobby taught me or what me and Bobby researched," I said before she could distract me.
"Unless you know or picked up anything about The Mark of Cain, I doubt it. Sam and I have been dealing with it for over a year now and nothing has come up with how to get rid of it," she said. I tilted head at her as I tried to recall if I had heard or seen anything about this mark. Before I could get far, Sam was back.
"Hey. I know it's not the best time right now, but Dean wants to see you," he said. Lulu shook her head with slight fear I caught flash across her face and the only reason I caught it was because I knew her enough.
"Alright if it helps," she said walking away. I had planned on following her but the look she gave me clearly told me not to. I sighed and let her go before turning to the Giant next to me.
"Alright Mr. Long Green, do you have any coffee?" I asked with a smirk.
I usually wasn't like this but with all that had happened, I felt like I was in the okay to be so. Sam gave me a glare at the nickname but seemed too exhausted to fight me on it more than dirty looks. He led me to the kitchen where they had some luke warm coffee. It was kind of gross but it had caffeine. The two of us sat down at the table. Sam held his head in his hands as I studied him over the coffee cup.
"So you wanna fill me in on how my best friend met this Dean fellow?" I asked. Sam looked up at me.
"First he is my brother and second, they met at Bobby's," he said. I stared at him for a second.
"Wait you mean Bobby Singer?"
Now it was Sam's turn to stare at me.
"Yes?"
I shook my head in disbelief. She must have met him either when I was on a trip or after I left for school. Before I could answer Sam's unasked question on how I knew Bobby, we heard Lulu scream. We jumped out of our seats and rushed to see what was going on. Sam blocked me mostly and got into the room before I did and proceed to push me back a ways. I glared at his back before going in after him. Sam had grabbed Lulu and was pulling her out of there but I had caught a glimpse of this Dean fellow and I froze, rooted to the spot.
My eyes widened with fright. This was the man, the green eyes turn black eyes man that had been plaguing my dreams. The flashes rushed through me as I stayed staring at this man tied to a chair. I vaguely heard Sam speak but I was able to hear what Lulu said,
"No, Sam it's not. That's not Dean anymore. I don't even know if 'curing' him with your blood will even work! We never got to finish it on Crowley!"
I could hear her words but I just couldn't move. My body was frozen as my mind repeated the dreams. Green to black, teeth, blood, bone, black. I could hear them both now, their words penetrated through the flood of images.
"It's worth a shot to get my brother back! I don't care for the risks!" Sam yelled back.
"You never do! Either of you, that's your thing, you die. Dean sells his soul. Doing whatever it takes is going to be the death of you both! I mean I love you guys, but if this is what is in the package deal of being a Winchester count me out," Lulu stressed out.
I knew Lulu and I knew what she was saying right now she didn't really mean but I didn't blame her right now. I would totally be talking to her right now if i could but it was like this man had broken the damn in my brain that held onto those nightmares. I heard Lulu leave and I tried to speak but my mouth wouldn't move. I couldn't even open my eyes after they closed at the onslaught of images. I felt a hand on my shoulder.
"Hey Emily? Emily? Come on," he said.
Sam gently grabbed my left wrist and physically led me away. I felt my body move with him but I wasn't moving on my own. Sam sat me down on what felt like a couch. I could feel his body heat as he took my face in his hands.
"Emily…. Emily?" He said quietly but encouragingly. I managed to open my eyes. I could see his worry and I wanted to reassure him that I was fine but nothing came out.
"Hey come on, it's okay. Come back," he continued.
I knew that. Really I did. I also knew now was not the time to be doing this. Lulu needed me and here I was having an episode. I felt my hand twitch. Right Lulu, I needed to get to Lulu and help her. I tried to focus on that but it was hard with, even with my eyes open, the dreams kept flashing.
Blood, bone, black, green to black, river of blood. It wasn't stopping and I couldn't hold in my whimper of frustration. I wanted… no needed it to stop!
"Emmy..?"
