Was planning on updating yesterday and I just got so busy didn't get a chance to do so. So, now I'm updating two chapter for ya guys! Enjoy!
Gracilynn follows after her dad and uncle up the stairs. Each one taking the weight of a friend, Cas and Pastor Gideon. She watches them as they climb the stairs, thinking about everything that had happened. It had only been a few days since they ganked Abaddon but the road to where they were headed to next was covered with demons. They ended up in this town where this girl named Leah was supposedly a prophet. That's when Cas appeared, pretty tanked, and started going on about how she was a whore. Gracilynn smirks at this. She wasn't a whore in the present day sense but one…she was known as the Whore of Babylon and she bore false prophesy. Supposedly, she could only be killed by a servant of heaven, but her her dad was the one who killed her. She trips over the stair in front of her and she pulls herself out of her reverie.
"Dean, how did you do that?" Gracilynn hears her uncle ask.
"What?" Dean asks.
"Kill her," Sam replies.
"Long run of luck held out, I guess," Dean replies off-handedly as they enter the sanctuary.
"Last I checked, she could only be ganked by a servant of Heaven," Sam points out. Gracilynn looks over at her dad to see his reaction. She had been thinking the same thing.
"Well, what do you want me to tell you? I saw a shot. I went for it," Dean replies testily as they walk outside and towards the Impala. Gracilynn quickly opens both of the back doors for her dad and uncle and Dean and Sam help Castiel and Pastor Gideon into the Impala.
"Alright, here we go," Dean says, helping Cas into the car.
"Watch your head now," Sam says, helping the pastor into the other side of the car, shutting the door behind him. Sam turns to Dean.
"Are you gonna do something stupid?" he asks him.
"Like what?" Dean asks, Gracilynn stands next to her uncle. She hopes he's not onto something but deep down she thinks he is.
"Like Michael stupid?" Sam pushes.
"Come on Sam. Give me a break," Dean replies impatiently, climbing into the front seat of the car. Gracilynn looks up at her uncle who is staring at the spot Dean was just at.
"You don't think…" Gracilynn begins.
"Come on Smalls, let's go," Sam says, opening the front door and gesturing for Gracilynn to climb in to the middle. Gracilynn sighs but climbs in anyways. That nagging feeling in the pit of her stomach was starting to grow and she hated it. Something bad always happened when she got it.
"How's the head?" Dean asks Pastor Gideon, who is sitting in one of the hotel chairs.
"I'm seeing double. But that may be the painkillers," Gideon replies.
"You'll be okay," Dean assures.
"No," the pastor replies and Gracilynn can see he's thinking of his daughter, Leah.
"Where are you going?" Sam asks when he sees Dean grab the Impala's keys and his coat.
"I'm just gonna grab some clean bandages out of the trunk. Relax," Dean replies irritated. Gracilynn narrows her eyes as her dad walks out the door. She quickly runs after him, hearing her uncle call after her.
Dean hears footsteps hurriedly catching up to him and he closes his eyes, taking a deep breath. He knows exactly who it is. He turns around and sees his daughter stop in front of him. Gracilynn watches him for a minute. Dean decides he might as well go along with the ruse and heads to the Impala's trunk. Gracilynn watches him walk to the trunk and then follows after him, stopping at his side.
"You okay dad?" she asks.
"I'm fine," Dean replies, pulling out some bandages and handing them to her. Gracilynn reflexively grabs them and hangs on to them. Gracilynn stares at him and Dean sighs. He looks over at her and watches her for a moment. "You know that no matter what happens I've got your back right?"
"Yeah, dad. I know that," Gracilynn says, confused at the emotion in her dad's eyes.
"No matter what happens, I'm gonna make sure you're safe. Nothing bad's gonna happen to you. I'm gonna make sure of that," Dean continues. Gracilynn scrunches her eyebrows.
"Dad?" Gracilynn asks, starting to get scared.
"Come here," Dean says, pulling her into a hug. Gracilynn hugs him back, her heart pounding in her chest. She feels her dad kiss the top of her head before he pulls back. "You take those inside, I'll grab the other stuff."
"Um…o…okay," Gracilynn says, hesitantly walking back towards the hotel room. She hears the trunk shut and she sucks in a deep breath, her hand on the door handle.
"I'm coming, head inside," she hears her dad say. Gracilynn opens the door and heads inside, shutting it behind her, dread filling within her.
"Be careful," Dean whispers before climbing into the front seat of the Impala. He starts the car up and revs the engine. Gracilynn and Sam whip their heads around at the sound of the engine and the two of them run out into the parking lot, seeing the Impala speed off.
"Dammit! Dean! Dean!" Sam yells.
"Dad!" Gracilynn yells at the same time.
Gracilynn, Cas and Sam sit in the Chevy they "borrowed". They stare at the motel room they know Dean is in. As soon as Gracilynn told him what Dean had said, Sam put two and two together and knew right where Dean was heading to next. Sam sighs and looks over at his niece; Gracilynn continues to stare at the door of the motel room. Sam knew she was freaked out, but she wasn't talking too much. Deciding it was better if he went in by himself first he opens the door and looks back at his niece.
"Stay in here. We're gonna go in and talk to him first," Sam says, watching Gracilynn, seeing the slightest nod of understanding come from her. Sam purses his lips but doesn't say anything. He climbs out of the car and shuts the door behind him, beginning the walk to the door. Cas disappears from the back seat. Gracilynn watches as her uncle scours the parking lot before quickly picking the lock and entering the room.
Sam walks in to the room, noticing his brother standing in front of a box taped shut. He looks lost and broken. Sam takes a deep breath before announcing his arrival, unnerved that his brother hasn't noticed he is here yet.
"Sending someone a candy-gram?" Sam asks.
"How'd you find me?" Dean asks, without looking up.
"You're going to kill yourself, right? It's not too hard to figure out the stops on the Farewell Tour. You already talked to Gracilynn. How's Lisa doing, anyways?" Sam answers.
"I'm not going to kill myself," Dean says, finally looking up at his brother.
"No? So Michael's not about to make you his Muppet? What the hell, man? This is how it ends? You just…walk out?" Sam asks, starting to get a little angry.
"Yeah, I guess," Dean says, looking away from Sam.
"How could you do that?" Sam asks, hurt in his voice.
"How could I? All you've ever done is run away," Dean says angrily, turning to face his brother, staring him in the eyes.
"And I was wrong. Every single time I did. Besides, what the hell am I gonna tell Gracilynn? You're scaring the crap outta her man," Sam counters.
"Tell her, her dad went out with a bang," Dean says, his attempt at humor lost in the truth of the statement. Sam ignores it.
"Just…please. Not now. Bobby is working on something," Sam pleads.
"Oh, really? What?" Dean asks, receiving no reply from him. "You got nothing and you know it."
"You know I have to stop you," Sam states bluntly.
"Yeah, well, you can try. Just remember: You're not all hopped up on demon blood this time," Dean challenges.
"Yeah, I know. But I brought help," Sam says. Dean turns around to see Cas behind him. Cas puts two fingers to Dean's forehead and effectively knocks him out.
Please review and let me know what you think!
