We Were Apart For A Time

Part 2

(Year 2032)

"Max to the center!" Bethany screamed as she saw the demons closing around them. Max obeyed his sister and moved in between his two sisters.

Haven looked at the demons that were facing her, hissing out at them. "Come on you bastards, come at us if you dare." she snarled.

Bethany grabbed one of her bags and emptied the contents all over the floor. The demons laughed as they thought that she had dropped them in fear. "Max, Now!" Bethany said and then they watched as the two girl dropped to the floor with Max still standing.

The knives that were dropped lifted up and flew in a circle, surrounding Max and his sisters, then he pushed out with his hand, and they flew in all directions coming in contact with the demons. As they pierced the flesh, all he could hear were the screams of pain as the demons felt their essences being destroyed from within. In a matter of seconds all of them were dead.

"Wow, now that was cool." Haven said as she saw all the dead bodies lying in a circle around them. Bethany sat up but still sitting on the floor. With a smile she looked up at her twin. "Maxie, I do believe you're getting the hang of that."

"Yeah, yeah, come on, I need a shower." Max said as he walked out the door. He stopped suddenly causing his sisters to bump into him. He had to blink a few times to really see what he was seeing.

"Max, what is it?" Bethany said looking at Max and then she looked over and saw what her brother was looking at. "Oh my god, Haven what is it?" she looked to Haven and saw her sister just watching as the dark cloud that was coming closer to them.

"Run!" Haven screamed grabbing Max and Bethany with both hands and taking off at a run. The only thing they could hear over the loud rumbling sound was their own harsh breathing.

"Max fly us out of here." Bethany screamed as she ran. Max tried to reach out, but tripped over a rock and fell to the ground. He could feel the suction of the wind and he scrambled to grab on to anything he could, but he closed his eyes as he felt his body being lifted up. The last thing he heard was his twin sister screaming out for him.

"Max!" Bethany screamed as she saw her brother being sucked up into the cloud. She felt Haven tugging at her arm to keep her running.

"Come on, we need to get out of here, now!" Haven hollered out to her sister. Bethany shook her head and tried to run back, only to be tackled from behind by Haven. "Hold on to me!" she said as she grabbed Bethany and placing herself on top of her younger sister. Bethany closed her eyes as the black cloud got right on top of them.

And then they were falling.

Max was released first and with a scream he dropped from the sky and landed with a thud on the hard ground. Groaning from the impact he sat up and looked around. For a brief second he wondered where he was and then feared that his sisters were lost to him, he looked up as another scream filled the air. Then he felt the pain as Bethany landed right on top of him and then Haven landing right on top of Bethany.

"Get off me; I think you broke one of my wings." Max grunted as Bethany tried to raise herself up, but was unable to, due to Haven lying out cold on top of her. Shifting slightly, she was able to gently maneuver Haven's body off to the side and then she lifted herself up.

"Haven wake up," Bethany said as she shook her older sister. Haven grunted and then coughed as she sat up.

"What in the ninth circle of hell was that?" Haven said as she grabbed her head. Her head having made contact with Bethany's as she fell. And now it was nothing more than a throbbing ache in her left temple.

"I don't know, Max, are you okay?" Bethany asked as she helped her brother sit up.

"No I am not okay, you freaking landed on me." Max said looking behind him and then tried to extend one of his wings and then he flinched as one was clearly broken. "OW! Shit that hurts." he said as he tried to reach back to touch his feathery appendage. To normal humans his wings were invisible, but his sisters could see them and Bethany gently ran her hand over the break.

"Oh damn Max, its broken." She said as she looked at the bone that was clearly poking out. She tried to touch it again, but Max avoided her contact.

"I know that, I can feel it sis, why do you have to be so heavy." Max said and then flinched again as Bethany hit him for that.

"Haven, hold him down, I got to set the bone," Bethany said as Max started shaking his head slowly moving away from them. "Max stop being a baby, it won't heal right if we don't set it back correctly." she said as she and Haven moved closer.

"The hell you will, I'll get papa to do it when we get home." Max said getting up, only to shrink back down as his broken wing shifted against him.

"Max, see your hurt let us help you." Bethany said again. Haven who was watching, ready to grab her brother when lights of a car shined in her direction causing her look over, then she looked down and saw that they were standing in the middle of a road.

"Guys, I think we should move, now!" Haven said as she gripped both of her siblings, pushing them out of the road and then looked again as the sound of brakes screaming as the car was trying to stop. It stopped a few inches from her and she placed her hand on the hood in shock.

"What in the sam hell are you trying to do?" Bethany could only stare in shock at the old man as he launched out of his car.

"Grandpa Bobby?" Bethany said in disbelief, she blinked a few more times and then noticed Max lying on the side of the road unconscious as he had landed once again on his broken wing. "Max!" Haven looked from Bobby to Max and then ran to her sister's side.

"We have to get him to papa; the break is more serious now." Bethany said looking at her sister. Haven nodded and then looked back to Bobby. "We need you to take us to papa, he can help Max." Haven said as she picked up her brother. Bethany ran to the car getting in the back seat and raised her arms as Max was placed with her.

Bobby looked totally in shock, as he numbly went to get in the car. Haven raced to the other side and got in looking over her shoulder at Max. "He's going to be okay sis, papa will make him better." she said and then looked at Bobby as he backed up the car. He put it in drive and made his way back to the Winchesters home.

Sam shifted as he heard a car pull up in the driveway. He woke completely up when he heard the banging at the door. He looked over and saw Dean still dead to the world. Getting up quickly he ran out the door and down the stairs. Yanking the front door open he stood looking confused for a moment as Bobby looked back at him.

"Move aside hurt boy coming threw." Haven said as she carried her brother in the door, with Bethany following her, she laid her brother down on the sofa, as Bethany started screaming for papa. Sam was trying to stop her, but he heard the hard thumps of feet hitting the floor as Dean raced out of the bedroom and down the stairs faster than he thought possible.

Bethany thought for a second that she was going crazy, but when she looked at Haven she saw the same look on her face that she knew was on her own. Then she looked at Sam, then Bobby and then back to Dean. And then Haven witnessed something that she had never seen before.

Bethany fainted.
