Alyssa's Journal
Ok, my first entry. I guess I can call this a diary, it might help with…Well let's just start basic.
It's about two days after I got kidnapped by…a demon. The big bad one that had been bothering my dad and uncle for a long time apparently. Since my dad was six months old. He told me the story. Yellow eyes came into his nursery because he's a (was?) physic. Though their mom showed up and he burned her on the ceiling. One of my visions showed that. I'm physic too since I have the visions like he has (Did? The only reason why I'm questioning it was because he told me his visions have only been connected to Yellow eyes in some way, now he's dead, will he not get them?). Their dad forced them to hunt like he started. Then dad quit but started hunting with Dean again once their dad went missing and Jessica, his girlfriend, burned on the ceiling (Saw that too.). My grandfather died saving them apparently and they found the Roadhouse, more physics, then me. Their life has been interesting I must say.
The night they went to the devil's gate made by Samuel Colt (I learned he made a gun that can kill anything.) I saw Jake opening the devil's gate and demons flood out. So, after helping dad with a bit of research with it the next day (Once my panicking stopped, knowing a bunch of demons are out and about it is really terrifying) I left with them to be present during cases. Dad said he wasn't sure if he wanted me hunting but defending myself was task number one.
Now I'm out and about with my family searching for monsters of all things! I still can't believe they hunt them for a living. The pay must really suck. No one hires them that's for sure. Oh yeah, another thing. Dad told me way back when I nearly drowned saving Tyler, I SAVED HER FROM A FREAKING GHOST! I just wanted to save her but I saved her from a GHOST of all things. Terrifying. He also explained the Shtriga and everything that had to do with the supernatural with me.
Everything I do now is a new adventure. I'm going to learn how defend myself from monsters! I honestly don't know what to expect as I travel across the country every day with my dad and uncle. I'm probably going to see a lot out there. I hope my angel (I'm now 99.9% positive they saved me Jake hit me.) is on me a lot because I have a feeling I'm going to need help a lot. Time for the start of a new adventure as the new supernatural child that has physic visions and hunts monsters for a living. Fun happy days for Alyssa Mary Winchester, right?
Let the adventure begin.

Sam's POV
I was reading the same book again when I heard Alyssa whimper. I looked at her in the backseat seeing she was still sleeping with her jacket over her and her headphones on. We found out a long time ago it was temporary solution for some nights to help her sleep and to get rid of the normal nightmares so she started doing it again. Though, even if we killed yellow-eyes, she still had visions. Me, I didn't. I didn't understand.
Dean and I both agreed not to tell her about his deal and we were both trying to figure out what saved her. Though if Dean wasn't looking I was looking for ways to break his deals instead. Whatever saved her hadn't made an appearance yet and that was a week ago. So I wasn't too worried. Though I did try to look into the demons being after her after she was born but I couldn't find anything.
Alyssa whimpered again turning on her side. She was defiantly having another vision. I reached over gently shaking her.
"Hey. Alyssa. Wake up." I said.
She immediately bolted up looking around startled then visibly relaxed when she saw where she was. She put her headphones around her neck as she sighed.
"What did you see?"
She rubbed her face with her hands before looking at me.
"Horrible things. You know, what the visions always do."
"I'm sure little moose."
"Little angel moose." She corrected me giving me a small smile.
"Little angel moose." I chuckled.
She looked around the car confused.
"Where's Dean?"
I glanced at the building but looked back at her.
"He's just doing some work."
"He's with a girl isn't he?"
I shook my head. Even she knew Dean that well.
"Yeah. He is."
She sighed leaning back in her seat before looking at me.
"You want to know what I honestly saw?"
I nodded curious about what her visions contained sometimes.
"I saw a woman bash another woman's head into a windshield. Want to know for what?"
"What?"
"A pair of shoes. Who does that?"
"Well, as your uncle would say, demons he gets but humans are crazy."
She giggled at that and I smiled happy I could still get her to do that. Now she sighed yet again looking at the roof.
"I think the world is full of crazy that's never going to be fix unless by a miracle."
I couldn't really disagree with her there. Everything seemed to be going to hell. I wasn't able to say anything anyways because my phone rang.
"Hello." I answered.
"Hey, Sam."
"Hey, Bobby."
Alyssa sat up at that.
"Whatcha doing?"
"Oh, same old, same old."
"Dean's with a girl and dad has his face in a book." Alyssa nodded. "That sounds about that."
I chuckled at her as she smiled putting her headphones on.
"You buried in that book again?"
Bobby paused as I looked at the book. She didn't know what I was reading. She only thought it was something to read but she didn't know yet.
"Sam, you want to break Dean free of that demon deal, you ain't gonna find the answer in no book."
"Then where, Bobby?" I asked making sure she still had them on.
"Kid, I wish I knew. So where's your brother?"
I glanced at the closed curtain happy Alyssa went back to laying down in her seat.
"Polling the electorate."
"What?" Bobby questioned.
"Never mind."
"Alyssa?"
"Sitting right here trying to go back to sleep."
"Well, you three better pack it up. I think I finally found something."
He told me what was happening as I watched Alyssa quietly air drum in the backseat.
"Ok, we'll see you there Bobby." I told him.
Now we both hung up and I grabbed her wrist. She looked at me bring her headphones back down again.
"Yeah?" She asked.
"I need to get Dean. Wait here."
"Of course, where else would I go?"
"You know what I mean. I'll be right back."
She held up an ok sign then put her headphones back on. I got out to get Dean.

Alyssa's POV
I went back to my air drumming. I didn't want to sleep after what I saw so I was pulling an all night again. I got like three hours of sleep total every night lately. Visions swarmed in rapid with these demons. Not fun. None of them were easy to pinpoint though so they weren't much help when it came to hunting them.
Dad and Dean were still debating if they should let me hunt. It was always a loud debate. One time I heard one year to go and the conversation went silent. They were hiding something from me. I was in the process of finding out what.
Soon both of them came in and I sat up putting my seatbelt on. I paused the music putting the headphones around my neck so I could speak and hear again. Dean started driving as I leaned into the front seat.
"Now let me see your knife." Dad said.
"What for?" Dean questioned.
"So I can gouge my eyes out."
"It was a beautiful, natural act, Sam."
"It's a part of you I never wanted to see, Dean."
I tried not to gag.
"I really didn't need to know this." I commented waving my hand. "Sixteen year old in the backseat. Keep it PG-13 level at least."
Dean was about to say something but dad glared at him and he didn't say anything to me.
"Hey, I appreciate you giving me a little quality time with the Doublemint Twins." Dean chuckled to dad now.
"Yeah, no problem."
"Really? Well, I got to say, I was expecting a weary sigh or an eye roll, something.""No, not at all. You deserve to have a little fun."
"Well, I am in violent agreement with you there. What's Bobby got?"
I listening while looking out the front window. Nothing has happened even though a devil's gate was opened.
"Not much. A crop failure and a cicada swarm outside of Lincoln, Nebraska. Ahh, could be demonic omens –"
"Or could just be a bad crop and a bug problem."
"Yeah, but it's our only lead."
"Any freaky deaths?"
"Nothing Bobby could find – not yet, anyway."
"It's weird, man. I mean, the night the devil's gate opened, all these weirdo storm clouds were sighted over how many cities?"
"Seventeen." I answered.
"Seventeen. You'd think it would be "Apocalypse Now," but it's been five days and bubkis. What are the demons waiting for?"
"Beats me."
"It's driving me crazy. I tell you, if it's gonna be war, I wish it would just start already."
"I don't know, man. Be careful what you wish for."
"I really not have a war. War is not fun for me." I mumbled.
"Kid, go to sleep. It's late."
"Alright. Alright."
I grabbed my jacket and curled up in the backseat easily sleeping.

Sam's POV
Dean looked through the rearview mirror and he sighed.
"Are we going to teach her or not Sam?"
I looked at her as well. Her jacket was slightly falling off her so I reached over adjusting it so it fully covered her then let out a heavy sigh.
"I really don't want to, but what choice do I have?"
"She hasn't started. It is not like you have to pull her out when she's not even in. We still have a shot at giving her a normal life. Yet, if you want to start showing her how to hunt she hasn't had to have our life. It was mostly normal."
"I just…" I looked at her again sighing yet again. "She's still a kid. I really don't want her in this yet."
"I understand Sam. I'm not saying she hunts damn demon tomorrow. I don't want her to hunt either but we at least need to show her how to protect herself. Just that much for now."
"Maybe you're right."
"We won't make her hunt, just teach her how to protect herself."
"You know she's going to want to though." I said.
"I know. She's one of us isn't she?" He grinned.
I shook my head never her wanting her to be when she shifted uncomfortable in her sleep as she whimpered quietly. I leaned back in my seat sighing.
"She's having another nightmare."
"What is that, sixth, seventh one today?"
"Eighth. It doesn't help when it wakes her up and she has another one or she has her visions."
"Poor kid."
"Yeah, not even just shutting her eyes is helping her."
Both of us were silent now. When we first met her I just wanted the best for her and I wanted her happy. Since she was a few days old that's all I hoped for but now it was crumbling down faster than I could fix it.

Alyssa's POV
I woke up to an empty car as I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes. I sat up my jacket falling off of me. I looked out the window seeing it was morning and we were outside of a farmhouse while Dean, Bobby, and dad talked. Running a hand down my face I got out of the car. I woke up a few times again in the car but I didn't let them know that. Better to just keep it to myself and let them think I was ok.
"I ain't sweating the cholesterol." Dean said finishing a statement as I stood up outside my door.
"You really should." I muttered closing my door.
He looked behind him as Bobby and dad looked at me.
"Morning." I greeted putting my hands in my pockets.
"You ok?" Dad asked.
"Peachy. So, Bobby, what do you think? We got a biblical plague here or what?" I questioned hearing the cicadas from all around.
He looked at dad questioningly as I stood next to Dean now.
"She's been helping me." Dad admitted shrugging.
"Well," he said turning back to the three of us, "let's find out. Looks like the swarm's ground zero."
Dean and Bobby started walking to the door but dad and I hung back.
"So…am I following?"
Dad looked up at the house then back at me.
"I rather you stay here. We don't know what's in there."
"Ok, I'll stay back. I kind of like living." I smirked leaning against the car.
He chuckled quietly before looking over at the house. Something was really bothering him.
"Is something wrong?" I asked.
"No." He shook his head turning back to me. "I'm going to help them. Stay here please."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah."
He left now and I watched them as I kept leaning against the car. From here I could hear Dean as he shouted as he pounded on the door before he started picking the lock. When they went inside I sighed looking up at the sky. I didn't know what to do.
I was scared yes. Its hard not to be but I also want to look into it. What they do, it seems amazing. Yes, it was dangerous and all but it was an adventure I wanted to try. Yet it all depended on what they decided for me.
Now I heard something that wasn't a cicada close. I turned my head looking around. I was in an open area, nothing should surprise me. Neither the less I stood up straight with crossed arms moving towards the trunk. As I opened it about to go into the arsenal I felt something against my back. Fear defiantly filled me.
"Don't move." They told me.
I stayed absolutely still as I spotted a knife sticking out. My hand inched towards it as I heard someone else come forward. The handle was in my palm as I was prepared to do the riskiest thing I will ever do. Dad and Dean trained me on simple things, normal self-defense things, normal defense time.
I whirled around hitting the gun barrel up as I was taught and swung my knife making them back off. I backed up taking in the two people in front of me with one holding a gun, which I was clueless on when it came to firing one. When I got to the hood I took another risky gamble and bolted for the probably more dangerous house. I was too fast and moving too much for them to get a clear shot before I slipped in the front door.
"Dad!" I shrieked tearing through the house but stopped gagging at the sight I found myself in.
"Alyssa!" Dad shouted as he saw me. "I told you to stay outside."
"That's gross." I muttered putting a hand over my mouth and nose as I turned.
"Come on." He told me taking my arm and dragging me out of the room Dean and Bobby following. "I said outside."
Everything quickly rushed back as my previous fears entered back.
"There are two people outside with loaded weapons. I rather not die!"
He looked at Dean and Bobby before turning back to me.
"Stay here, don't leave until I tell you."
As the stench burned my nostrils I nodded rather taking the choice to hang out with the dead bodies. He put a hand on my head before the three of them left leaving me alone with only a knife to defend myself with. It was another minute before I heard dad's voice call for me.
"Alyssa."
I slowly stepped out the house seeing the two people that were no longer hostile as Bobby was talking to them while Dean and dad were behind him. I came forward staying slightly behind dad though its kind of hard to hide behind him when you're almost his height. They noticed me but didn't do anything hostile.
"And who's this?" The woman asked with a slight accent.
My grip on the knife I still had tightened. I'm sorry I'm not that trustworthy after I learned demons were real and Jake literally backstabbing dad. Also, the guy holding the gun had it on my back not but two minutes ago.
"Ah, this is Alyssa." Dad told them for me. "She's new to this."
"She's tough." She commented. "Fought even though someone had a gun on her."
"I sort of enjoy living so I would." I told her. "That's for the gun on my back by the way."
"You handled it." The guy said as dad looked at me shocked.
"Why do you think I ran in?" I asked dad.
Now I handed him the knife. If they hadn't attacked by now or my family hadn't, they were ok. Dad gladly took it.
"Who are you?" I questioned.
"Tamara and Isaac." The woman told me.
I nodded.
"Go to the car, we'll be there in a minute." Dad said to me.
"Ok."
I left playing with my bracelet feeling incredible and scared on the first of my adventures after getting a rifle off my back then running into what might have been a dangerous house. Good start right?
