BeeDiddy: Not quite yet. Here's the last chap of the story. Thanks.

DISCLAIMER

LWD belongs to Canadian Television and Supernatural belongs to the CW. I only own the plot and characters you don't recognize. I know I didn't specify which leg got injured in the previous chaps, but I do it here. And for those of you interested, I'm planning on a Supernatural\Criminal Minds story. Criminal Minds is a series about a group of elite officers who profile criminals in order to catch them. When it's finally up, it'll be in the Criminal Minds section. I'm not sure what Kendra's last name was in the show, so I'm making something up.

Two days later, Casey, Derek, and the rest of the students were enjoying the carnival and fun house. Casey laughed as she and the others dashed through the fun house. Well, the others dashed. She limped, making sure not to put pressure on her right leg, which had been stitched by Sam after they had come home from killing the clowns.

"Are you okay?" a girl named Kendra Gowens questioned, noticing that the girl was lagging behind.

"Yeah, I'm all right," Casey assured.

"You sure?" Emily questioned "I mean, you're totally favoring your right leg," she pointed out.

"I just wrenched my leg a couple of days ago. It'll be fine," Casey assured.

"Okay. Well, we were just wondering," Kendra replied. Then, "Hey, look at that clown!" Casey followed the girl's gaze. She suppressed a shudder and unconsciously fingered her wound. She hadn't minded clowns before this whole thing started, but now…she was totally with Sam.

"I'm getting out of here. I don't like clowns anymore," she declared. Without giving the others a chance to protest, she hurried off, wincing when she felt the stab of pain. Dang, I hate it when spirits use knives, she thought to herself. Just then, Derek came up behind her.

"Boo!" he said. Casey jumped, and then slightly winced from the pain in her leg.

"Der---ek!" she exclaimed. However, her tone was only mildly irritated. Her stepbrother laughed.

"Serves you right for not letting me help," he told her.

"Right. Like I'm gonna let your first hunt involve a homicidal spirit," Casey responded, throwing him a look.

"So then, you'll teach me?" Derek questioned.

"You still have to talk to George and Mom," Casey replied. Derek fumed. Why couldn't she just agree to train him? It wasn't like he could do any worse than her. All she had to do was teach him how to use a gun and a knife, and he'd be able to protect Edwin next time. With a huff, he walked off. Then, he noticed the girl in front of him.

"Whoa," he breathed. That---that was Kendra Gowens. He started to follow her. However, was intercepted by the last two people he ever wanted to see at his school.

"Dad, Nora, what are you guys doing here?" Derek wondered.

"Yeah, um. Are you guys chaperones?" Casey asked nervously.

"Oh, don't worry. We're not staying long," George assured him.

"So, what do you want?" Derek wondered, forcing himself to pay attention.

"Well, we took the last two days to discuss the possibility of you being trained to hunt, and we've reached a decision," George stated. Now they had Derek and Derek's full attention.

"Well?" the boy asked.

"If you want, you can undergo training," George replied. Derek grinned and Casey was silent. "But, you have to do everything they say," he continued.

"Sure, Dad. I will," Derek assured.

"This includes Casey, Derek," George stated.

"That's right. She's been doing this for years. And if we get any complaints that you're giving her a hard time, you're done. There will be no more," Nora added.

"Okay, sure," Derek agreed somewhat reluctantly. He didn't like it, but he wasn't going to argue. It was enough of a miracle that they had even agreed to let him hunt.

"And now, we'll leave you to your infinitely cool school carnival," George said teasingly.

"George," Casey laughed. Nora and George walked off and Derek hurried to catch up with Kendra. Casey smiled and continued to walk slowly through the attraction.
