Chapter 4

Scene: Outside the hotel in the parking lot

Sam: Dean! Over here!

Dean searches the crowd and sees Sam standing a few yards away with some woman

Dean frowns and rushes up to them

Dean: What the hell happened Sam? You didn't follow the plan!"

Sam: "I didn't have time; she ran into me in the hall, we have got to get out of here now before Lucifer shows up"

Dean: "Wait, where is Castiel?"

Sam: I don't know, but come on we can't wait we need to go, Cas told us to run and not look back"

Dean finds it unbelievably irritating that Sam is willing to follow the angel's orders, but not his. Yet, he concedes to Sam's wishes as he can tell the young woman looks terrified.

Dean: Ok, let's go!"

Sam grabs the mistress's hand again as the three of them race towards a main street in town and search franticly for a taxi.

One cab drives closer to them and Dean stands in the street waving his arms frantically, forcing the driver to slam on the brakes to prevent hitting him.

Dean: "Get in!"

Sam pulls Satan's Mistress into the cab and gets in next to her even buckling her in.

Dean follows from the other side of the car

The Driver is incredibly angry at Dean for almost causing him to have an accident so he yells at him

Driver: "Are you people fucking Insane!?"

Dean pulls out a gun and points it at the Driver through the open window.

Dean: "Yes, now shut up and drive"

Driver immediately presses the gas pedal down and they race down Figueroa Street.

They drive and drive Dean barks directions at the Driver as they head out of town and back to Springfield.

Satan's Mistress holds Sam's hand and doesn't let go, she is surprised at how strong the muscles in his hands are, but something about his strength appeals to her, She thinks to herself, if he is meant to be my Master's vessel I will be truly blessed. I must find a way to get him alone where my master can find us and take him with us.

Satan's Mistress smiles at that thought and stares into Sam's eyes wanting him to acknowledge her.

Sam does acknowledge her. He smiles back and squeezes her hand a bit trying to reassure her that she is totally safe now.

Satan's Mistress finally does feel safe and happy knowing she is about to give her Master his true desire and finally please him the thought feels her heart with so much passion.

Dean: "My name is Dean, by the way"

Dean notices how tightly and closely she sits and holds Sam's hand, he also notices how she can't stop staring at his brother and that unnerves him very much because most victims they encounter find Sam confronting, but they were not usually this clingy except for maybe Becky Dean thought.

Satan's Mistress doesn't even turn her head to look at him keeping her eyes only on Sam, she just responds to Dean

Satan's Mistress: "Yes, I know who you are."

Dean: "Really?"

Dean looks up at Sam with a puzzling look and Sam returns his gaze with an equally puzzling look.

Sam: "Miss, can you tell us your name?"

Satan's Mistress realizes that she no longer remembers her name as all that matter is that she belongs to Lucifer and therefore is simply his mistress.

She smiles and looks up into his eyes

Satan's Mistress: "No, but you can give me one if it pleases you."

Dean frowns and rolls his eyes

Unbelievable Dean thinks to himself, why are all the chicks attracted to Sam so freaking bat shit crazy? The few normal ones all die and the crazy ones make my headaches worse. He should have married that one chick back in New York, she is the only one still alive and not a total freak, but Dean reasons that more than likely neither of us will ever get married or have a family, this job just won't allow that, if we don't die today, or tomorrow, we'll only live to see our families murdered in front of us again."

Dean frowns deeply

Just thinking of the reality of their lives tore him apart in ways he didn't totally understand, why should I even bother to long for a normal life when it is unfathomable for us. As much as I tease Sam about being freak, I'm an even bigger freak I know I am. If Sam only knew some of the things I've done both on earth and in hell, he may never speak to me again. Of course I thought the same thing once after he left with Ruby, it hurt so bad to see him walk out on me like that, but he's the only person I will ever put up with that kind of shit from, well maybe dad or bobby, but Sam is different he needs me the most and truth be told I need him even if he is a freak.

I may want to kill Sam sometimes, he can get under my skin so bad I want to beat the living shit out of him, and I would if it weren't for those damn eyes of his. I still remember when he was a baby and he would cry so freaking loud I'd want to put a pillow over his head just to drown him out for good. I'd go up to his crib so pissed off and then he'd look at me with those annoying watery eyes and I just knew right away no matter what I must protect him from harm, he's my responsibility if I don't do it thinks could be so much worse. Besides at least he doesn't cry as much now as he use to the baby, at least now he brings me quarters and food. That reminds me I'm hungry.

Sam looks over at his brother and can tell Dean's inside his own head

Dean isthinking that worries me, whenever Dean thinks too much its trouble. I'm the thinker. He's natural, he does what he wants to do, how he wants to do it, and he doesn't have to think about it much or give a shit if anyone else doesn't like what he's doing or at least that's what he wants everyone to believe.

But, I know him too well, he cares about what people think maybe more than I do, he wants me to look up to him, well I've always looked up to him, I just wish he didn't look down on me. He takes care of me sure, but I can't help feeling like there is so much he isn't telling me, so much pain he carries around that he doesn't want me to know about. God, why can't he just tell me!

I may not be able to change it, but I can at least try to comfort him. He never wants to let me do that for him. He thinks I'm too much of a freak, well I guess I am, but I would give anything to have him understand that I never really want to hurt him. That's not true, I do what to hurt him sometimes, but only because he drives me so crazy, no one but Dean can make me want to hug him and strangle him all at once. I miss my family, I use to get so mad at dad, and I never felt like he cared about me as much as I care about Dean. The pain I feel inside makes me so sick sometimes I just throw up in the bathroom with the shower running just so Dean can't hear, it scares me the thought of hurting Dean again. I wouldn't be able to stand it.

Sam's mind returns to thoughts of Ruby, and what he did alone in the dark with her still eats at his soul every day. He admits to himself it was wrong and yet some part of him still remembers the taste of her, the smell of her blood, that sick urge inside that pulls and lingers inside him never-ending. God I wish I could kill myself sometimes, If I were dead, Dean wouldn't have to worry about me, Bobby wouldn't have to worry about me.

Sam frowns and stares out the windows of the cab

I wouldn't be able to get away with it though; Lucifer will probably just bring me back. I'm trapped, and all I can do is hope this lady can help us stop him. It's weird her holding my hand so tight all this time, she must be really scared, she keeps staring at me, its unsettling, but I have to protect her from him. I have to protect Dean and myself from him too. I can't become him, I won't. Sam looks at Dean one last time, looking at him reminds Sam of why he can never say Yes to Lucifer, Sam thinks to himself, If I do Dean will just die, he will never be able to live with that, never be able to forgive me or himself for letting me go down the wrong path. I can't do that to him, I can't hurt him again, this pain inside hurts too much, it hurts even more than my craving for more demon blood. He may never forgive me as it is why should he? I still blame myself. I can't let him down, I can't let myself down, I can't say Yes. I won't.

Dean: "Stop the cab"

Driver pulls over quickly and stops in front of their hotel

Dean: "Sam pay the guy will ya"

Dean exits the cab

Sam rolls his eyes knowing full well that they are low on cash, but he reaches into his wallet and pulls out his last hundred dollar bill. The meter is even higher than that, but it's all Sam has right now so he hands it to the driver.

The driver grabs the cash quickly and barely waits for Sam and Satan's mistress to get out of the cab before speeding off.

Sam felt bad for the guy for a moment, but he felt the tug on his hand as Satan's mistress pulled him towards the hotel still unwilling to release his hand from her grasp.

Scene : Inside the Winchesters' hotel room

Satan's mistress stares at Sam and continues holding his hand as she sits next to him on his bed very closely

Sam is beginning to feel incredibly uncomfortable with her being so close

Sam finally says to her

Sam: "May I take a shower?"

Dean: "Yeah sure whatever, soaps under the sink."

Sam: "I was talking to her."

Dean smirks and lies down on his bed trying to relax and get rid of his mild headache

Satan's Mistress: "I can bathe you if you so desire it"

The words force Dean to rise from his comfortable position he looks directly at Sam awaiting to hear his response and trying hard not to burst out laughing.

Sam stares at her sheepishly

Sam: "No I can bathe myself thank you, been doing it for years"

Dean cocks his head to the side motioning to Sam to go ahead and ask her what it is they both want to know.

Sam sees Dean's motioning and sighs knowing he will have to do the questioning otherwise Dean will say something rude or stupid.

Sam: "Miss, may I ask you why you were with Lucifer?'

Satan's Mistress knows this is coming, she knew it the entire cab ride over that as soon as they reached their destination, they'd be asking her questions about her relationship with Lucifer and though she did not want to tattletale on her master, she realizes it will be best for now if Sam Winchester believe she is a pitiful victim instead of a willing participant in it all of this.

Satan's Mistress: "I was walking home one night from work, I slipped in the ice and fell it hurt my ankle really badly. Suddenly, a bright light like that of a car's headlights was shining in my face. I closed my eyes to avoid the pain of the light and when I reopened them I was in a hotel room."

Sam nods attentively

Satan's mistress pauses for a moment and finally looks over at Dean wanting to see if he too is buying her story.

Dean: "Yeah, Ok go on."

She continues.

Satan's mistress: "I looked around the room and sitting across from me was a man, he was handsome though a bit tired looking and his clothes were stained with blood and mud. He held a knife in one hand and was twirling it on the table next to him. I wanted to scream, but was afraid he would stab me if I did. So I just stared at him. He told me his name was Lucifer then he told me to strip for him. I wanted to cry so badly, but I did it anyway then he stood up walked over and told me to undress him too, still holding the blade in his hand. I did as I was told; figuring that if I was going to get raped I at least didn't want to be stabbed afterword so I planned to cooperate with this maniac.

Sam cringes at the thought of Lucifer hurting this poor woman like that.

Satan's mistress stares at Sam and sees his eyes dilating she feels bad that she is upsetting him.

Dean's look furious and ready to stab someone.

Satan's mistress: "Maybe I better stop now"

Sam: "No, please we need to know what Lucifer was trying to do with you."

Satan's mistress sighs sadly

Satan's mistress: "Well he told me to draw him a bath, so I did and then he came in to the bathroom, and locked the door. He proceeded to pee on the floor right in front of me it was so disgusting. He told me he expected me to clean it up later, after I bathed him. I knelt down prepared to do as I was told as he carried the knife into the tub with him. He then proceeded to tell me he wants me to carry his child. I didn't want to believe him at first I thought he was just crazy, and that this couldn't really be happening to me. He stood up in the tub suddenly, then he showed me his wings and I'm almost blacked out in shock. He dragged me on the floor twisting my other ankle bruising it painfully. Then he went to bed with the knife under his pillow and I laid beside his bed on the floor completely afraid to even move and it hurt so bad I started crying all night."

"The next morning I awoke to find he put me in his bed while I was sleeping I thought I could feel him moving me, no doubt fondling my breasts while I slept. He then tries to strangle me, but for some reason he stops and tells me to get up and go get him so breakfast, he hits me and knocks me out of bed. I rush towards the door. He says if I try to run he will find me and kill me, so I better come back quick or else. I quickly got dressed and left the room crying. That is when I ran into you on the stairs. I just wanted to go home and be with my mom and my brothers again".

Dean: "Where is your family, they could be in danger as we speak?

Satan's mistress realizes she has just triggered Dean's emergency response alert so she starts to panic a bit because she does not want him dragging Sam to her mom's to save them when she knew full well Lucifer had already killed them and she didn't even care about them anymore anyway.

Satan's mistress: "Well they are on vacation in Brazil somewhere I'm not sure exactly, they will not be back for at least a week, so even if Lucifer knew where they were, we could never get there in time."

Satan's mistress lets tears fall from her eyes and begins to tremble

Sam scoots closer to her on the bed and grabs her hand again, trying to calm her pain.

Sam: "Don't cry, we will not let him get you, we promise. Our friend Castiel he well he is trained to deal with this sort of thing so he will make sure to take you far away someplace where he can't get to you or hurt you again or your family."

Satan's Mistress: "Thank you Sam, you are very kind."

Sam gives her a half smile

Sam: "Why don't you go take a shower first, I need to talk to Dean for a minute anyway."

Satan's Mistress smiles and does as she is told.

Sam stands up after she enters the bathroom and shuts to door; he motions to Dean to follow him outside the room.

Once they are both outside in the hallway, Sam says

Sam: "So what do you think of her story?"

Dean: "I think her story is full of shit!"

Sam: "Yeah, me too."

Dean: "All that crap about Lucifer asking her to get him breakfast, he doesn't need to freaking eat! He doesn't want to have children with her, he hates humans. What is wrong with this chick Sam? She must be crazy or ill or something she could even be demon possessed."

Sam: "Well I put holy water in our shampoo so if she's in there showering and starts screaming we will know in a second if she is possessed."

Sam and Dean reenter the room and listen through the bathroom door for Satan's mistress, several minutes pass and no screaming is heard.

Sam: "So at least she's human, maybe she is confused or something."

Dean: "She's confused alright, but we got to get her out of here, she is a threat to herself and us." And where the hell is Castiel, we need to find him like now!"

Satan's Mistress turns off the water, dries off and comes out of the bathroom wearing only a towel still wet and tired looking

Sam and Dean stop talking and look at her, they are both unsure of what to say to her or do next.

Dean finally speaks

Dean: "We need to get you somewhere safer so Lucifer doesn't find us"

Satan's Mistress: "My Clothes are bloody and smell, I am so tired I just want to go to bed"

Sam: "Uh, sure you can borrow one of my shirts and take my bed, I can just sleep in the car."

Satan's Mistress is even more surprised by his kindness, but really doesn't want him to sleep in the car, she wants him nearby, she doesn't want them to take off in middle of the night and leave her alone. Though she figures they believe her story and want to protect her.

Satan's mistress suddenly drops the towel revealing her nakedness to both brothers.
