"Who's Lilith?" Sherry asked, interrupting our conversation.
"Shut up!" Ruby snapped at her, and when I looked at her questioningly, she just shrugged.
"Lilith is a demon," I explained, "She was the one who…um…sent my brother to hell."
"Look I don't know what the hell a moonstone is but it definitely won't help you in killing this Lilith girl," Damon replied as he tried fighting against the chains Ruby had tied to him.
"Ruby," I said with a sigh, "let them go."
"But Sam," she started to say.
"Enough, Ruby. Just, please."
"So what, now you're choosing to side with vampire's and asking me to let them go? What's the point when they are just going to continue killing people?" Ruby asked and I took a deep breath, knowing that she was right.
"We don't kill people," Sherry suddenly said and I turned to look at her, a little confused by what she'd said just now.
"Oh sure you don't," Ruby stepped forward threateningly and rolled her eyes, "That's why there are so many people getting killed around here."
"We aren't killing them," Damon said just as I snorted in response, "We were just about to find out who it was before you showed up," he said tilting his head in my direction with a smirk.
"Oh yes and we believe you," Ruby said with an amused expression on her face, "Now tell me-where is Katherine?"
"I already told you," Damon set his jaw and looked at Ruby who raised her eyebrows slightly with an amused smile now playing on her lips.
"Yeah, but somehow, I don't believe you," Ruby replied.
The next thing I knew, Damon suddenly groaned with an expression of pain on his face but before it could continue, there was a knock on the door. Ruby automatically opened the door using her powers and standing outside the door was Damon's brother Stefan.
"Why do you have my brother? He hasn't done anything wrong," Stefan growled, and it was the first time that I had seen Stefan act so aggressive.
"He's not like you Stefan," Ruby said, "He does not drink animal blood, he drinks human blood."
"But he doesn't kill any humans," Stefan defended, trying to come in but it looked like there was something stopping him and I realised that this was because I hadn't invited him in yet.
"Well we need to question him too," Ruby said, not moving an inch.
"About what?" Stefan asked.
"None of your business," Ruby said and then turned her back to him, "I'm getting really sick and tired of repeating myself, Damon so how about you answer my question."
"I told you!" Damon's answer was still the same and I suddenly heard a snapping of ribs and a hiss from Damon but still no response.
Stefan on the other hand was just throwing his body against the invisible wall. While Sherry was trying to get away from the strength that was keeping her pinned against the wall.
"She wants to know where Katherine is hiding," I told Stefan, hoping that maybe he would know where she was so that Ruby would stop and just go away. But a part of me, a tiny part of me deep down was really desperate to find the answer so that we could kill Lilith once and for all.
"She's in a tomb," Ruby stopped what she was doing and turned around to pay attention to what Stefan was saying, "near Fell's church."
"Well," Ruby said turning to face Damon with a smile, "I guess you were telling the truth after all."
"You got what you wanted," Stefan said, "now leave him."
"Yeah Ruby," I agreed, "You can let them both go now," I looked at the both of them apologetically.
"No, I won't," she said, "Not until I'm sure that what they're telling me is correct."
"It is correct," Stefan said, "I'm not lying."
"Still, I won't let Damon go without checking," Ruby said.
We all heard footsteps, distinct, loud footsteps that were clearly in no hurry to get here and the voice echoed through the whole corridor. It was the voice that I hadn't heard for almost four months, the voice I wished that I could hear every single day.
"Yes, you will let them go," Dean ordered stepping into view.
He stepped inside the room, walking towards Ruby in a quickened pace and thrusting the demon-killing knife straight into her chest.
Not giving myself time to process what was going on, I got Damon out of the chains and saw him rushing out faster than any human could.
"Thank you," Stefan said, before disappearing and it was then that I let myself look at my brother and let everything sink in.
"Sammy," he whispered, stepping towards me and looking at me with that pride and that smile on his face. That smile that I hadn't seen in a while.
"Dean." As I stepped toward him, I realised that I wasn't the only one who'd said his name-Sherry had said it too.
