Disclaimer: I own nothing except Kayla
A/N: Here is chapter 21. Read and Review.
It has been two nights since Kayla lost Cas. She was curled up asleep on the backseat of the impala while Sam and Dean were on a hunt. She started moving restlessly, as though she was having a bad dream, when she suddenly shot up. She groans and puts her head in her hands.
"Kayla," she hears someone call quietly. She looks around, but doesn't see anyone. "Kayla." She hears it again. Kayla frowns and gets out of the impala. The moment she stands up, her surroundings change. Suddenly, she's standing in the middle of a sandy beach. Kayla glances behind her, the impala is gone. She shrugs and sits down. She folds up the bottom of her jeans and sticks her feet in the sand. Kayla looks up as someone sits down beside her. It's her brother, Lucifer.
"I'm dreaming, aren't I?" Kayla asks, smiling. Lucifer, however, is frowning at her.
"Oh," Kayla says, reaching up to touch her black eye. The one Zachariah had thoughtfully given her.
"Who did that to you?" Lucifer asks with barely concealed anger in his tone.
"Zachariah," Kayla tells him, moving closer.
"I'm going to kill him," Lucifer growls, reaching out and wrapping an arm around her.
"You can't," Kayla tells him. "Dean already has."
"I guess that means I have to thank him," Lucifer says. Kayla smiles and shakes her head.
"What's wrong little sister?" Lucifer asks gently.
"It's Cas, Luci," Kayla says, her eyes filling up with tears. "He's gone and I don't know if he's dead or alive." Lucifer pulls her into a hug and allows her to cry into his chest.
"When did you start calling me Luci?" he asks when Kayla runs out of tears.
"You remember when me and the Winchester's fought Famine?" Kayla asks. Lucifer nods. "Well, the thing I craved was memories, and he gave them to me." Kayla pauses and takes a deep breath. "The first memory I got back was the day you fell."
"You poor little thing, I wish you didn't have to see that but Michael wouldn't let me send you away."
"I met him a few weeks ago," Kayla says. "I still prefer you."
Lucifer chuckles, "Thank you little sister."
Kayla pulls away and jumps up. "Bet you can't catch me without cheating," she grins, running away. Lucifer rolls his eyes and gets up. He slowly walks over to Kayla, who shrieks with laughter and runs further away. Lucifer grins evilly and gives chase. Eventually, they end up in the sea. Lucifer grabs Kayla and pulls her to him. He lifts her up.
"Gottcha," he says smugly. He then drops her into the water.
"Hey!" Kayla pouts and crosses her arms. She sits there in the sea, soaking wet. She then smiles and looks up. She then splashes her brother. He laughs and splashes her back.
As the sun sets Kayla looks at her brother. "I have to wake up now, don't I?" Lucifer nods slowly. "Will I see you soon?"
"Yes, I'll make sure of it," Lucifer promises.
"Love you brother."
"Love you too little sister."
The next thing Kayla knows she's lying on the backseat of the impala. She looks up and sees Sam and Dean standing outside. Kayla smiles softly and gets out. She walks over to Dean and says,
"I don't blame you."
Dean smiles and pulls her into a hug. Kayla grins and says, "Lucifer says thanks for killing Zachariah." She feels Dean stiffen and laughs.
"He was here?" Sam asks.
"No. He was in my dream," Kayla tells them. The brothers relax.
"Don't do that," Dean scolds, pocking Kayla in the side. She giggles.
"No message for me?" Sam asks, pretending to be hurt.
"Sorry Sammy. Not today."
The trio get into the impala and drive away.
"I wonder if I'll see Gabe again anytime soon," Kayla says. A shocked silence follows.
