Destiny woke in her bed with an incredible head ache along with a variety of other aches and pains. Dean sat at the foot of her bed. "How do you feel?" He asked.
"Like shit," she replied. She still didn't fully trust him; who ever he was he apparently was not from the Illyd, otherwise she would not be here. She would either be dead or she would be on her way back to pay a non to pleasant visit to the elders. "Who are you really Dean?"
"I'm not sure I follow you," Dean said confused.
"You're not from the Illyd so who are you?"
"The what?"
"You've never heard of the Illyd before?"
"Not before tonight."
"So you're not here to kill me, then why are you here and how did you find me?"
"I'm not sure what you're getting at, but if you like I can tell you my life story or I can just give you the gist of it. How 'bout I do that. As you know I'm Dean and this is my brother Sam. Like you we're hunters, we hunt demons and other stuff like that. Sammy here is a physic, he has visions and stuff like that and that how we found you."
"This sounds strangely familiar, it sort of sounds like Sera. She has dreams that come true and she can levitate things. You know, she uses her mind to lift things," Destiny said, not quite sure why she was telling him about Serenity's secrets. She missed the look Dean and Sam gave each other as she suddenly remembered that she was supposed to meet Serenity. "Oh my god, Sera! What time is it?"
"It's almost two," Dean said.
"What's going on?" Destiny demanded sitting up. She noticed that Sam had begun to hold his head funny almost as if he suddenly had a head ache. "I've seen Sera do that, she holds her head in the same way."
"Where is she?" Sam asked, standing up as the blood drained from his face.
"At the theater, why?" Destiny asked suspiciously.
"We got to go get her, now," Sam said seriously. The fear could be heard in his voice. It was clear that there was something that they hadn't told her.
Destiny stood up rather stiffly, but Dean pushed her back down. "You're no shape to be going anywhere."
She shoved him away as best she could, considering how badly she was hurt. "Don't tell me what to do. I saved her from a vampire a year ago, unfortunately I didn't get there in time to save her brother, but I did save her. Since then I felt responsible for her. Do you know what it's like to feel responsible for someone?"
"Yes as matter of fact I do. I carried Sammy here from a fire when he was just six months old."
"Over the past year she has shared her home and secrets with me and I shared my most dangerous secrets with her and never has she judged me for my choices, never once has she complained to me about my lifestyle, and not once has she let me down no matter how bad things have gotten. And I won't let her down, so if you think that I'm just going to lay here you've got other thing coming to you."
"Well then let's go," Dean said helping her to her feet.
Once stable, Destiny grabbed all the weapons she could stuff into her bag. She walked past Serenity's Chinese broad sword on the wall. In all the excitement of the day she had pushed Serenity out of the apartment with out it. Destiny would never forgive herself if something happened to Serenity. She grabbed the sword, just in case she would need it.
"Let's go," she said when she could no longer fit anything else in her bag. She opened up the door headed out into the hall, steadily making her way to the stairs. Once outside she immediately noticed the Impala. "Nice car," she said
"Yeah she's a pretty sweet ride," Dean said beaming with pride.
Without waiting for Dean, Destiny grabbed his keys from his hand, unlocked the passenger's side door got in and sat down. She put the keys in the ignition as she unlocked the driver's side door. Dean and Sam exchanged glances before getting in the car. Destiny was busy raiding Dean's tape collection by the time they got in. She pulled out a Metallica tape and plugged it in, it just happened to be his favorite tape. Dean said nothing as it seemed that Destiny had the same taste in music as he did. I think I'm in love Dean thought revving up the Impala and then raced down the streets of New York City.
They reached the Theater just as a limo raced away. "She's in there, Dean. If we're careful, it'll lead us to the nest," Sam said.
"Wait, what's that right there?" Destiny asked. Then she realized it was Serenity's purse and shoes lying on the ground as they raced passed the front of the theater. She hoped against all hope that Serenity was ok and would remain so until they could rescue her. Destiny swore again she would never forgive herself if something happened to Serenity.
