Kurt and Finn entered the book store, it had been a while since they've been on a nice simple ghost hunting job. They approached the sales clerk and began asking her the usual "have there been any cold spots" "are the lights going out" type questions when she suddenly smiled brightly.

"Wait? Are you guys like role playing or something?"

Kurt and Finn shared a questioning look "No" answered Kurt slowly not sure what she quite meant "What would we be role playing anyways?" asked Finn.

She winked at them "You know, The Hunters."

"Hunters?" asked Kurt

Her smile faded slightly "So you really don't know then? I thought for sure you were fans of The Hunters" at the boys continued confusion she continued "The Hunters were a series of books about 2 guys, eventual step-brothers, who travel the country hunting demons and ghost" she motioned for them to follow her "I think we might have some in store."

They followed her to the mystery fiction section; she quickly scanned the shelves before pulling out one of the books and handing it to Kurt. "Here we go, this is the first one."

Kurt took the book and read the description, his eyes getting wider by the second. "Got anymore?" he asked.

Back in the hotel room Kurt and Finn were struggling to comprehend what they had learned. Turns out The Hunters was a series of books, about 20 published before they were discontinued, it ended with Kurt going to hell. The series was their lives, the writer, a Miss Rachel Berry, seemed to know everything about them.

"She has to be a psychic, man, but just like focused on our life for some reason" Finn said in disbelief as he put another book down.

"I don't know, some of this stuff is super detailed, like the ritual stuff. I find it hard to believe this is all the work of a psychic. I think we should find this Rachel Berry, and talk to her ourselves."

After a little bit a sleuthing the boys found out were Rachel lived, just a couple towns over from them. At first they weren't sure how to approach her but figured just walking up and telling her who they were was their best bet, though it might take some convincing.

Kurt knocked on the door, waiting nervously for the answer. Finally the door opened, revealing a short girl with bangs, dressed a bit too pretty for just sitting at home Kurt thought.

"Hi" started Kurt still unsure how to go about introducing themselves "there's really no good way to put this but I'm Kurt and he's Finn, the Hunters you've been writing about" Finn smiled and waved at her.

Rachel took a minute to look between them, smiling brightly, her eyes fixated on Finn "It is you! Oh my god I didn't think it was possible, come in, come in." She motioned them inside, quickly shutting the door behind them.

Kurt stepped inside cautiously, that was too easy.

"Wow" Rachel started "it really is you, I had no idea that the characters I was writing about were real but here you are" she stood closer to Finn "I would know you anywhere" she said her smile wide and eyes shining brightly.

Kurt was about to ask her why she believed them so quickly, how she knew it was really them when she handed him a stake of papers.

"I kept writing" she said as Kurt flipped through the pages, it was all events that had just happened within the last day or so "Even after the books were discontinued I kept writing, the visions just kept coming all the time" her voice a little sadder as she rubbed her head subconsciously "the best way to deal with it all was to write."

"So that's why you're all dressed up?" asked Finn

Rachel nodded "Yup. I saw you coming here and well, on the off chance that this was all real I wanted to look nice"

"About those visions" asked Kurt "how are you focused on our lives like this?"

Rachel shrugged "No idea. One day I got this pounding headache and had this rush of visions, they just come to me. At first I didn't know what it was, really freaked me out. So I wrote it all down, trying to make sense of it and yeah…"

Kurt sat down to looking over the pages Rachel had handed him earlier, they were from a few days ago, but she had mentioned seeing them coming "Have you written anything lately?"

Rachel turned to him nervously "I have and you are not going to like it, it's about Finn"

Finn looked startled at his name being mentioned "Me? What did I do?"

"It's what you're going to do…with Quinn."

"Quinn?" Kurt and Finn both yelled in unison.

Rachel went to the table to hand Kurt a fresh stack of papers "Basically she comes to town and they end up in bed together" it was almost like it hurt her to say it.

Finn laughed at the notion of sleeping with Quinn while Kurt remained serious.

"Do you know what happens after they…do it?" Kurt asked grudgingly.

"Really Kurt? You don't think the thought of me and Quinn sleeping together is crazy?" asked Finn, giving his brother a serious look.

Kurt eyed his brother for a minute before turning to Rachel "Thank you so much for your help. We have to go now, but we'll keep in touch."

Kurt motioned Finn to the door, rushing to leave before she could stop them. Once outside he realized Rachel had said nothing about them leaving, and then it dawned on him, she probably knew since they got here when they would be leaving.

Back at the hotel room Kurt started to pack up their stuff "We're leaving" he announced.

Finn took back his bag "Why? Is this about me sleeping with Quinn? Come on Kurt, I would never do that."

Kurt laughed sarcastically "I've seen you do things, I never thought you would. Besides we are not ready to deal with Quinn, so we're leaving."

Finn huffed "But we're ahead of the game! We know the where and when Quinn will be. We should be preparing to fight, not running!"

Kurt throw down his bag "this is Quinn we're talking about, we can't just walk up to her and fight without a plan. We are not prepared for her."

Finn stood his ground "Well I'm not leaving. We don't have plan? Then let's make one. We can't let Quinn go, not if she's this close."

Kurt stood there in disbelief; he knew Finn wouldn't leave, not now. So instead he took one look at him before leaving without a word a slamming the door behind him.

Kurt got in his car and drove. He didn't even know where he was going he just drove.

Finn sat down once he realized Kurt had left. He just needed time for himself, he'd come around eventually. They couldn't just run away from Quinn, not when this was the first bit of news they had on her in awhile.

He decided to call Rachel over, see if she knew anything. He reached for the phone to call her when there was a knock at the door. Curiously he made his way over and opened it slowly, it was Rachel.

"Sorry, I had a feeling you wanted to see me" she said as she made her way inside.

She sat down at the table, seemed a bit more serious than their last meeting. "What would you like to know?"

Finn sat across from her "Well" he started nervously "do you ever see me alone? Or are the visions only with I'm with Kurt?"

"Is this about the demon blood?"

Finn's face fell "So you do know? You haven't told Kurt?"

Rachel shook her head "I never even wrote it down."

"Why?" he questioned

"Because I thought it would make you unsympathetic. I know the books have been discounted but soon people will be clamoring for them again, that's why I continued them, and it's really just a matter of time before they get published again. I didn't want people to hate you."

"Unsympathetic?" asked Finn his voice full of hurt.

Rachel looked at him sadly "I'm sorry Finn but drinking demon blood? You got to know how wrong that is."

Finn dropped his head in shame "I know, I can feel it in me, the power it gives me. I wish I could stop, I really do, but if it helps me kill Quinn, stop the apocalypse…"

"I thought that was Kurt's job, I mean that's what the angels say right?"

Finn sighed "Ever since Kurt got out of hell he hasn't been himself. He needs help. He's helped me so much these past few years, why can't I return the favor?"

Rachel looked at him thoughtfully "Is that what this is about? Helping Kurt?"

"What else would it be?"

"I don't know maybe the demon blood makes you feel stronger, more in control" she answered knowingly.

Finn shook his head "No, it's not about that, not at all."

Rachel nodded along "Ok. I am sorry Finn, it's a terrible burden, having that all rest on your shoulders."

"Does it? Does it all rest on my shoulders?" he asked in a low voice.

"That does seem to be where the story is headed" she answered sadly.

"I am strong enough to stop Quinn, tonight" he asked determined.

"I don't know, I haven't seen that far yet."

"Hello Kurt" Rachel said as she entered her house to find him sitting on the couch.

"You don't seem surprised to see me." he answered his arms crossed.

She shrugged "not really, no" she sat across from him.

"What nothing shocks you anymore because you've seen it already? And how are you doing it anyways, huh? How are you so fixated on my life!" Kurt was getting angry now; this girl knew everything about him and didn't even seem to care.

"I told you I have visions" Rachel answered, unfazed by his outburst.

"Visions? That's it, that's all you're giving me? I think you know more, more than you're letting on."

"Well I'm not" she said as she shifted in her seat uncomfortably.

Kurt looked at her, his eyes narrowed "You do. I can see it, you know more than you're letting on" he rushed over to her as she jumped up, scared "tell me what you know!"

"Kurt stop" came from a familiar voice behind him "as annoying as she maybe, she is not to be harmed; She is a prophet of the lord."

Rachel's eyes widened as she clapped her hands together "Sebastian! Oh so it is true then"

Kurt turned back to her "You knew?"

Rachel nodded excitedly "Oh yes, I saw this days ago, but a prophet? That sounded farfetched even for me, but if Sebastian is here then it must be true." she exclaimed as she hugged Sebastian tightly.

"You know forget what I said, kill her if you want" Sebastian grumbled as he tried to free himself from her.

Rachel let him go, playfully hitting him on the arm "Oh you."

Kurt watched as Rachel sat back down, giddy "This is the girl deciding our fates, really?"

Sebastian picked up one of the books lying on the table "She isn't deciding anything; she's just a mouthpiece, a conduit for the inspired word."

Kurt rolled his eyes "You know I don't like it when you get serious like that. The inspired word of whom?"

Sebastian smiled "What can I say, I'm an angel, it happens. As for your question-God."

Rachel squeaked in excitement.

"Excuse me?" Kurt asked not believing what he was hearing.

Sebastian smirked "Oh yes one day these books will be known as the Hudmel Gospel"

"Hudmel? Really? What was Hummel-Hudson too long?"

Sebastian laughed "Apparently so"

Rachel was taking the news very well. "I'm going to be famous" she said her eyes wide, she leapt up practically jumping with joy "Everyone will know me, Rachel Berry, as a prophet" she turned to run upstairs "I'll be back!" she called "this outfit is not fitting of a prophet!"

Kurt watched as Rachel disappeared upstairs "Really?" he asked again.

Sebastian burst out laughing "I'm sorry Kurt, I don't know how prophets are chosen. That decision comes from way up the celestial ladder."

"I'm glad you find this so amusing." Kurt said shaking his head "So how do we stop it." he asked trying to get back on track.

"Stop what" Sebastian asked confused.

"Stop Finn and Quinn from hooking up! I thought you were keeping up." Kurt said exasperated.

Sebastian smiled slightly "You're not going to like it"

"Like what?"

"I'm about to go serious angel on you. Kurt, what little miss hyper Berry, the prophet, has written, cannot be unwritten. As she has seen it, so it shall come to pass."

Kurt huffed. No he didn't like it.

Kurt went back to the hotel room, determined to make Finn leave with him. He found him at the table eating.

"Come on Finn, we have to get out of this town before Quinn gets here. We're leaving now." Kurt said as he started to pack their bags.

Finn sighed "Are we even sure Quinn is coming? I mean what if Rachel is wrong; shouldn't we look into her story more?"

"Not necessary" Kurt said as he finished packing his bag and moved on to Finn's "I went to see her and Sebastian showed up, she's not a psychic, she's a prophet."

"What?" Finn exclaimed in surprise

"Yup and she's writing the Hudmel Gospel as we speak. Which means Quinn is coming and we're leaving."

Finn walked over to take his bag from Kurt "No."

"Excuse me? You know Quinn is going to kill you, right?" said Kurt angrily.

"I don't think she will." replied Finn as he set his bag back on the bed.

"Is that so. You think you can take her?" Kurt challenged.

"I gotta try. You think I'll go dark side if I do, don't you?" Finn said not wanting to meet Kurt's glance.

Kurt was silent for a moment before letting it all out "Yes! Ok, the way you've been acting lately. I know about Azizmo, how easily you killed him. Sebastian told me."

Finn looked stunned, he hadn't expected that. "What else did he tell you?"

"Nothing I don't already know. That you've been using your psychic powers and that you've been getting stronger, we just don't know why or how."

"It's not what you think" Finn muttered lowly

"Then tell me what it is, cause I'm at a total loss" Kurt yelled exasperated.

Finn looked at the floor and said nothing. Kurt waited for an answer, when he finally saw he wasn't getting one he picked up his bag and headed for the door. "Are you coming or not?"

"No." Finn answered, barely above a whisper.

Kurt stood at the door with his bag for a minute before throwing on the ground and going outside, slamming the door behind him.

Kurt was pacing back and forth. Why did Finn have to be like this? Couldn't he see that they weren't prepared to face Quinn, not today? That his psychic stuff could only lead to trouble. "Is not suppose to be like this, please I need help" he said out loud to no one in particular. He was surprised then to get an answer.

"That sounded like a prayer, you know. It's a good thing."

Kurt turned around to see Sebastian standing before him "Can you help me?"

Sebastian looked at him thoughtfully "I'm not sure what you want me to do."

"Take Finn and get us the hell out of here before Quinn shows up." said Kurt motioning towards the hotel room.

Sebastian sighed heavily "It's a prophecy. I cannot interfere."

Kurt rolled his eyes "Oh please. You have tested me, thrown me every which way and I have asked for nothing. Now I'm asking. Please help me Sebastian, please help my brother." he pleaded.

Sebastian shifted uncomfortably, his voice low "It's not within my power to do so."

"Why?" Kurt yelled "because it's divine prophecy?"

"Yes" Sebastian muttered

"So what I'm just supposed to sit around and wait for Quinn to come and potentially kill my brother?"

Sebastian looked at Kurt, full of sorrow "I'm sorry" it was killing him not being able to give Kurt what he wanted.

"Screw you, you and your mission" Kurt spit out as he walked past Sebastian "the next time you need help don't call me because it's not happening" he said as he walked away.

"Kurt! Kurt, wait!" Sebastian called after him.

"What?" he yelled as he turned around to face him.

"Please you must understand why I cannot intercede" Sebastian begged as he moved towards Kurt to close the gap between them.

"I'm sick of your angel rules" Kurt said impatiently

"Just listen. Prophets are special, very special."

"I'll say, that Rachel is something else" Kurt interrupted

Sebastian gave him a slight smile "Kurt, please let me finish. As I was saying prophets are very special and if anything, anything at all threatens one an archangel will appear to destroy that threat. Archangels are fierce, heavens most powerful weapon."

Kurt's eyes widened with understanding "So if say, a prophet and a demon where in the same room…"

"Then the wrath of heaven would rain down upon that demon" Sebastian smiled slyly "Just so you understand why I can't help you" he winked.

Kurt smiled "Thanks." he said warmly.

"Good luck" answered Sebastian as he turned around and waved good bye.

Kurt knocked on Rachel's door, a minute later she opened it, dressed in her pajamas. "What are you doing here?" she asked curiously.

Kurt reached for her hand "You're coming with me."

"Where?" she asked as she began to follow him to his car.

"To the hotel with Finn and Quinn."

Rachel stopped in her tracks, pulling her hand away "Are you crazy? I've seen what Quinn can do. And it's not supposed to happen like this, I haven't seen this."

Kurt looked at her with pleading eyes "Listen, you have an archangel tied to you. All you have to do is be in the same room as her and an archangel will come to smite her."

Back in the hotel room, Finn sat at the table waiting nervously when there was a knock at the door. He went to answer it, only to find no one there. He closed it and turned back around to be faced with Quinn.

"Hello, Finn. So nice to see you again." She smiled at him sweetly.

"Can't really say the same" Finn replied as he attempt to use his powers against her.

"That tickles." she said giggling softly "You're powerful, but not that powerful."

"Then why don't you try tossing me around?" he challenged.

Quinn narrowed her eyes at him "You know I can't" she said coldly. "I'm here to talk"

Finn laughed "Not interested."

"Oh? Even if I offered to stand down? The Seals, the apocalypse, all of it?" she asked lightly.

"Like I believe that" he scoffed

"Didn't think you would, but it's the truth. I'll call everything off, if you agree to my terms." She said mater of factly.

"And why would you want to do that?" he asked curiously.

"Well turns out I don't survive this war. Killed off just before the good stuff."

"What do you want?"

"Your head on a stick" she said sinisterly "Kurt's too for good measure"

Finn glared at her "like I believe you would hold up your end of the bargain."

"I make a deal, and have to follow through on the terms and you know it." She said seriously "But a deal with me involves more than a kiss" she added motioning toward the bed.

Before anything could happen the door burst open to reveal Kurt and Rachel. Kurt pushed her in and she stood firm with her hand on her hips "I am the prophet, Rachel Berry!" she exclaimed rather excitedly.

Quinn threw up her hands in frustration "You've got to be kidding me!" she yelled as she moved in towards Rachel. As she did the room began to shake.

"No joke, sweetheart" yelled Kurt over the commotion "You see, Rachel here has an archangel tied to her, in about 10 seconds you're going to be dust in the wind, you sure you want that?"

Quinn stood her ground for a minute as the shaking became worse; finally she gave Kurt a dirty look as she left her host.

At once the shaking stopped.

Kurt and Finn were on the road again.

"So she wanted to make a deal, huh" Kurt questioned.

"Yeah, she agreed to stop breaking Seals if we died."

"And you didn't think about taking it?"

Finn looked slightly hurt "Never. She got one thing right though, she's not surviving the apocalypse. I'll make sure of it."

Kurt said nothing in return. He just stared out the window, worried about his brothers decent towards darkness.

Rachel was lying in bed when she began thrashing around. She opened her eyes quickly, scared at what she had witnessed.

"Did you see it?" a voice called from her doorway.

She sat upright, startled at the intruder "Who is that?"

"Names Jesse" he answered as he walked into the light "Did you see it?" he repeated.

Rachel nodded slowly, recalling the terrible vision she had "Is all that really going to happen?" she asked her voice shaking.

"Are you ever wrong?" replied Jesse.

Rachel reached for her phone "I've got to warn Finn and Kurt"

Jesse waved a finger at her "No, no, no. We can't have that. People shouldn't know too much about their own destiny."

Rachel considered him for a moment, reaching for her phone.

Jesse shook his head "Not smart, Miss Berry. I won't hesitate to stop you."

Rachel dropped her hand defeated.

"And don't even think about going the tragic drama queen route and killing yourself, cause we'd only bring you back" he added as though he knew what she had been thinking.

"Then what do I do?" she sobbed.

"What you always do. Write."
