Chapter 21 Your uncle's daughter.
They made it back home after a well needed restful weekend. It was late evening, the girls were unpacking and doing laundry. Dean was letting Sam go through his weapons he took out of the Impala and stored in a small iron chest he built. "I am going to call Cas. He should have found out something by now." Dean said. Sam looked back at him. "So, you are gonna hold off on the Crowley thing?" Dean grabbed two beers from the cooler and handed Sam one. "Yeah, I promised Jade I would wait. Crowley scares her." Sam raised his eyebrows. "I can't imagine her scared of anything." Dean smirked and took a drink. "Yeah, tell me about it. But she as always said she doesn't trust him." Dean pulled out his phone and scrolled to Cas's name.
Lisa was laying on the couch, catching a late nap. No work tonight, she may go have a beer later at another bar in town. She laid with her eyes open, trying to get awake. She had that strange feeling like someone was watching. She blinked her eyes and sit up when she saw Cas sitting in the chair, watching her. "Damn, you have to stop doing that. Just because you're an angel, doesn't mean you can just drop in." she said as she grabbed a bottle water from the kitchen then stood in the doorway. "You have talked to the girls." Cas said. She nodded. "Yeah. Do you always spy on people?" she asked. He looked up at her, "Only while you sleep now." She looked at him, "What do you mean, now? How long have you been watching me?" Cas looked out the window, "Since you were born." She was stunned. "What the hell does that mean?" Cas started to speak but his phone rang. "Hello" he answered. "I will be right there." she heard him say. He stood and looked at her. "Dean needs me." She looked at him shocked. "You can not just say something like that and leave." She took a stepped toward him and he disappeared. "Shit!" she grabbed her phone and keys and headed out the door.
Dean and Sam walked back in the kitchen as Cas arrived. "Where were you?" Dean asked. Cas turned to him, "I was at Lisa's." Dean smiled, "That is getting to be a habit." Jade rolled her eyes, "Don't listen to him." "Have you figured out how we are going to get Sam's soul back?" Dean asked. Cas looked at Sam then back at Dean. "No, it is locked in the cage. I don't know how to get to it. He is getting better here right?" Cas asked. Jade shook her head, "Not really, according to Crowley, the new leader of hell, he is just picking up on Lexie's feelings and memories. I don't know how that works, but it doesn't solve the problem." Cas turned and looked out the window. "You saw Crowley?" he asked. "Yeah, he came to the lake house. Says he can get Sam's soul back. But we have to do some kind of job for him. He doesn't know where his soul is exactly. But he can find it and get it." Dean explained as Jade rolled her eyes. Cas stood with his back to him. "What does he need you to do?" he asked. Sam looked at Dean, "We don't know yet. Maybe you could ask around. Find out what he is working on." Before anyone could say anything else, Lisa walked in, pissed. "So, you just drop what ever you are doing and come when Dean calls?" she asked glaring at Cas. Dean raised his eyebrows, "Yeah, that's what he does." Lisa glared at him. The others were watching in shock. Dean smirked, "Whatever kind of little lover's spat you two have going, it can wait. We have important private business to discuss. So if you don't mind?" He wiggled his eyebrows. She felt her body heat rise. She looked at a vase on the counter and before Dean knew it, it shattered against the wall next to his head. He duck and his eyes widened. "What the hell was that?" he asked glaring at her. Jade held up her hands, Cas stepped in front of her and grabbed her hands. "Don't" Jade looked at him shocked. "What is she? A demon?" she asked. Cas looked at her, "No" he answered. Jade jerked her arms from him and looked at Lisa, she was just as shocked as they were. Lexie looked at Cas, "Who is she?" Cas looked at Lexie, "She is one of you." Jade looked at him, "What the fuck does that mean?" Cas looked back at Jade, "She is your uncle's daughter." They all stared at him, eyes wide, mouths gaped open. Dean broke the silence. "Hey, I'm up for a family reunion." Sam glared at him, as Dean shrugged.
Lexie ran her hand through her hair and then shook her head. "No, John didn't have any kids." Jade looked at Lisa, "I think we would know if he did." Cas looked at both of them. "He didn't know." Dean slapped Sam's chest. "This is getting good." he said as he smiled. Sam glared at him, jaw clenched. Jade looked at Lisa then back at Cas. "You're lying." she said lips tight. Cas looked her in the eye. "I would not lie. She is your blood." Lexie looked at Lisa, who was still in shock. "Did you know about this? Is this why you came to us for a job?" Lisa gathered herself and shook her head. "No, I knew nothing about my dad. I've never met him." Jade looked at her, she knew she was telling the truth. Lexie was still questioning it. "What about your mother, where is she? We can talk to her." Jade asked. Lisa shook her head, "She died about a year ago, cancer. I found an number for a John in her diary. The area code was here, but the number was disconnected. So, my plan was to move here, see what I could find out. Not much to go on though." Jade looked at Lexie, Lexie shook her head. Lisa sat at the counter. "I always thought he was dead." Lexie smirked. "Well, he is now." Jade looked at here and shook her head. "It happens, trust me, me and Sam know. That's how we found out about Adam. A hunter saves a girl, girl is grateful.." Jade glared at him. He laughed, "It's true, sweetheart." Cas nodded, "It is. Her mother knew what he was. To keep her safe, she didn't tell him or see him again." Lisa stood. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have come here." She walked out the door. Sam looked at the others, "You can't just let her go." he said as he followed her out.
Jade put her hands on the counter, head hung. Taking deep breaths. Lexie tilted her head back and groaned. Then she looked at Jade, "That came from nowhere." Jade looked at her, "Tell me about it. Like there isn't enough shit to deal with." Dean leaned on the counter next to Jade. "You ok?" he asked. She looked at him and hopped on the counter. "Do we have a choice?" Lexie looked at her, "Yeah, we do. I haven't seen anything that tells me she is our cousin." Dean looked at Lexie, "Cas, wouldn't lie. I think it is like impossible for an angel to lie." Lexie ran her hands through her hair. "Damn, why now? If you have know all this time. Why tell us know?" she asked Cas. "It was not my place. This was suppose to happen on it's own." Cas explained. "She didn't know. But she is his daughter." Jade and Lexie looked at each other, Jade shrugged and smiled. They always felt close to her. Every since the first they met, they have been good friends. "Hey, she has on of those little gifts. And her aim is almost dead on." he said as he smiled at them both. They both rolled their eyes and groaned.
Sam followed Lisa to her car. "Lisa, wait. Don't go." Lisa turned to him, tears in her eyes. "I can't do this. This is to out there for me." Sam took a deep breath. "I know. It can get crazy. But they are your family. They just need a few minutes to let it sink in." Lisa looked away. "All my life, I felt like I never fit in. Like I was different. There was always something missing. When ever I asked about my dad, my mom avoided the subject. Eventually I stopped asking. Just thought he didn't want me." Sam leaned on the side of the car next to her. "Now you know that isn't true. She was only protecting you. Trust me, I know from experience, this life is no way for a child to live." Lisa looked at Sam, tears in her eyes. "I didn't know. I would never lie to them. I consider them two of my best friends." Sam wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "They know that." He looked down at her and smiled. "The good news, you found where you fit in. The bad news, life will never be the same." She smiled and laid her head on his shoulder.
Cas looked at Dean. "They are calling me. Tell Lisa I will see her soon." Dean nodded. "Let me know what you find out about Crowley." Cas paused for a second then nodded before disappearing. Jade looked at Lexie, "We have to talk to her." Lexie let out a deep breath. "I know. She is probably freaking out." Dean laughed, "Yeah, she's out there with the one without soul. I can only imagine how that pep talk is going." Jade and Lexie both rolled their eyes. They walked out on the porch. "Lisa, will you please come back in?" Jade asked. Lisa looked at her and smiled, walking back up the stairs. Lexie wrapped her arm around her and smiled. "How about a beer?" She nodded and smiled. Jade opened the door. "Trust me girl, you are gonna need a beer and a bottle after we fill you in on our big happy family." Dean looked at Sam. "Can we skip the girl talk?" Sam laughed. "I am with you." Sam followed Dean to the barn.
The guys could see the girls on the patio from the barn. "Looks like she is taking it well." Sam said. Dean pulled out the four wheelers and his tools. "Well, she hasn't took off like a bat out of hell yet. That's a good sign." Sam looked at Dean, "What are you doing?" he asked. "I am going to change the oil and spark plugs, it hasn't been done in a while." Sam sat on a stool. "Do you work in the morning?" he asked. Dean shook his head, "No, my next job doesn't start for a few days." He looked at Sam and smiled. "But I still get paid. One of the perks to being the boss." Sam laughed. "I can't believe you are the boss. I take that back, it is the perfect job for you. You have been the boss all our lives." Dean smiled. "I guess I have. But you seem to be doing your own thing." Sam took a drink of his beer. "It's a little different than the way we worked. But they are good at the job. And we make it work." Dean fooled with his tools. "You trust them?" he asked. Sam nodded. "Yeah, I guess I do. I mean not like I trust you. But I do." Dean smirked, "Why do you trust them. We don't even know them. What do you know about them?" Sam looked out at the woods then back at Dean. "They are mom's family. They are our family, Dean. That's good enough for me." Dean nodded. "That's fine. But that isn't good enough for me. I don't trust Samuel." They were both quiet for a minute then Sam grabbed a wrench. "Fair enough. Could we not argue about it? Let me help you." Sam said stand at the other four wheeler. Dean laughed. "You want to help?" Sam looked at him, "Yeah, tell me what to do." Dean laughed and shook his head. Showed Sam what to do then went back to his.
