My Bloody Valentine pt 2
Time to crack into the not so funny part of the episode.
"Sammy?" Cleo asked, knocking on the bathroom door. Sam looked in the mirror as his blonde witch of a girlfriend slipped into the bathroom. He sighed and held onto the sink. "Baby you okay?"
"I don't...don't know." Sam said. Cleo walked over to him and rubbed his back. "Cleo I think...I think something's wrong."
"Something's always wrong." Cleo said, taking the washcloth from him. She dabbed his forehead and neck with the cloth, making him sigh. "This whole mess will pass over. Cas thinks it's..." Her voice faded out, at least that's how it seemed to Sam. His head was filled with a thumping like a heart beat. He gripped the sink harder and lowered his head, trying to ignore it. It was hard, so hard. Right next to him was what he was wanting, what he was craving. It filled his girlfriend.
Afterall, witches were essentially demons as well. They had the right blood.
"Cleo you need to get away from me." Sam said suddenly.
"I...what?" Cleo asked, surprised by the sudden change.
"Just...get away...now." Sam said, squeezing his eyes shut.
"Sammy?" Cleo asked. She slid her hand to his cheek and turned his head towards her. "Sammy look at me." He reluctantly opened his eyes and took in her expression. Her blue eyes wide and full of worry, her lower lip caught between her teeth. It was something she did when she was thinking, trying to figure something out. Sam thought it was cute until he saw the little bead of red swelling up.
Cleo gasped in shock and some pain when Sam slammed her into the wall. He held her hands next to her head, pinned her legs with his own, and his eyes narrowed in on her lip. Normally such a situation would have had Cleo attempting to kiss him senseless right about then but something suddenly felt off with Sam. His hands were shaking where they gripped her wrists and his breathing was heavy.
"Sam..." Cleo muttered. A loud bang on the door made them jump.
"Sammy? Cleo?" Dean's voice called through. He opened the door a second later and looked at them. "Sam what are you doing to her?"
"Get her away from me." Sam said, stumbling back quickly.
"What?" Dean asked, watching his brother before looking at the witch. She shook her head, looking scared.
"I think it got to me, Dean." Sam said. Cleo and Dean looked at Sam. "I think...I think I'm hungry for it." The younger Winchester's eyes had yet to leave his girlfriend's bleeding lip.
"Hungry for what?" Dean asked, already knowing but needed it confirmed.
"You know." Sam said, finally tearing his eyes away from Cleo to look at his brother.
"Demon blood?" Dean asked, gritting his teeth. Sam looked down at his shaking hands. " You gotta be kidding me." He turned around to look at the Angels in the other room. "You guys...one of you has to get him out of here. You got to beam him to like Montana...or something...anywhere but here."
"Won't work." Castiel said, yet another burger in his hand.
"If he's already infected..." Alice said, taking in Castiel's eating with a slight frown. "The hunger is just gonna travel with him. We have to go beat Famine before Sammy gets any. Cleo, get your ass out here right now."
"But..." Cleo said, looking at Sam.
"Get away from me." Sam said, not looking up. Cleo sighed and walked out of the bathroom. Mary-Jo patted her arm sympathetically. "Go...cut that bastard's finger off."
"You heard him." Dean said, looking at everyone in the other room. "Let's get a move on."
"Dean." Sam said, looking up. Dean looked at him. "Before you go...you better...better lock me down." Dean nodded and got to work.
"Alright, you just hang in there." He said a few minutes later, clicking the hand cuffs shut around Sam's wrists. They were cuffed either side of the pipe under the sink. "We'll be back as soon as we can."
"Be careful...and hurry." Sam said. Dean nodded and walked out of the bathroom, closing the door behind him. He gave Castiel a nod and the Angel pushed a wardrobe in front of the door with no effort.
Alice, Mary-Jo and Castiel stayed in the Impala while Cleo took Dean into the coroner's office. Mary-Jo was leaning between the front seats and fiddling with the radio while Castiel sat next to her, eating yet another burger with his eyes on the teenager. His eating had slowed down quite a bit in the last little while. Alice, who was sitting at the wheel, nudged her daughter back, getting tired of the constant music change. Mary-Jo sat back down and raised an eyebrow as Cas tilted the food bag towards her. She slowly took one of the burgers. The action didn't go unnoticed by Alice who was watching them in the rear view mirror.
"You fighting this thing now Cas?" Alice asked, turning around to look at them better.
"I don't know." Castiel said. He finished off the burger he had been eating. "I can understand why you haven't been affected." His eyes were on Alice. They then shifted to the half-Angel next to him. "But why haven't you?"
"Too young?" Mary-Jo guessed, shrugging as she bit into the burger she had.
"What would be Cleo's excuse then?" Castiel asked.
"Satan's bride...maybe she's not allowed to be affected." Alice said. She frowned slightly. "You think it's a good idea she's with us right now? Maybe she should have stayed at the motel."
"Hearing Sam would had distressed her." Castiel said, finally fishing another burger out of the bag. "She would have let him go and he would have attacked her."
"Guess so." Alice said.
"That must suck." Mary-Jo said. Dean and Cleo came back and got into the car.
"Doc drank himself to death." Dean said. "But his soul's still there according to Cleo."
"I know what I'm doing." Cleo said, rolling her eyes.
"Yeah yeah...so we're gonna wait for someone to come harvest." Dean said, looking at the others.
"Sounds like a plan." Alice said. "Then we just follow them."
"Exactly." Dean said. He raised an eyebrow when he glanced into the back at Castiel. "How many of those have you had so far?"
"Somewhere in the low hundreds." Castiel said, shrugging. Mary-Jo nearly choked on the last bit of her burger. "I was just asking these two why they haven't been affected."
"We figured it that I was an Angel and this is...completely me, not like Cas who's in a vessel." Alice said. "And MJ might just be too young to be affected. None of the vics have been younger then their twenties."
"Guess so." Dean said.
"You seem perfectly fine." Castiel said, looking at Dean. "I wonder where your hunger is."
"Hey man...I eat when I wanna eat." Dean said. "I fight when I need to...and I have se...uh...spend quality time with Ally all the time." Mary-Jo giggled in the back seat at her father's attempt at cover up.
"So you're just well fed." Castiel suggested.
"Pretty much." Dean said, shrugging.
"Guys, demon alert." Cleo said. They all stayed silent and watched a demon walk out of the coroner's with a briefcase before they started to follow him.
"Haven't we already been at this restaurant?" Mary-Jo asked.
"Yeah." Dean said. "Guess the big guy's in there."
"I'll go get the ring." Castiel said. Before anyone could do anything, he vanished from his seat.
"I don't like this." Alice said, thirty seconds later.
"Me neither." Dean said. "You all stay here."
"Screw that." Alice said.
"Ally..." Dean said.
"Dean." Alice said, grinning.
"Fine." Dean said. "But if any of you get hurt, it's all your own faults." They all got out and went into the restaurant. All the people that could have been costumers were dead and there was little light. "Cas?"
"There." Mary-Jo said, pointing out Castiel who looked to have been side tracked by raw hamburger meat.
"So much for the possibility of getting over it." Alice said. Dean moved and smacked away a demon that was sneaking up on Castiel. The girls all made to move but were stopped when other demons grabbed them. Dean got grabbed as well.
"Well well well, what have we here?" They all looked to see an old man in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank roll in. "Dean Winchester and company...Angelic company and...oh my oh my, what's this? The devil's bride? How delightful."
"Let them go." Dean growled.
"Now why would I do that?" Famine asked. His eyes snapped over to Alice as the Angel's eyes began glowing. "None of that now." The demon holding Mary-Jo slid a knife to the girl's throat, making her yelp. Alice instantly stopped what she was attempting to do and settled for just glaring. "That's a good girl."
"Let them go." Everyone turned to see Sam. Mary-Jo felt sick when she saw the blood staining his face.
"Ahh Sam, I see you got the snack I sent you." Famine said. "Help yourself to more."
"I don't think so." Sam said, holding up his hand. Alice, although she knew what Sam could do, stared in shock and fear as all the demons started choking as the black smoke fell from their mouths. Out the corner of her eye, she saw Dean pick up the knife but couldn't do anything else as his expression copied his wife's.
"That's a pity." Famine said, looking at all the black smoke on the floor. "But...if you won't eat them...I will." He opened his mouth wide and everyone but Sam flinched as the smoke flew into Famine's mouth. "Your power won't work on me Sam Winchester."
"You're right." Sam said, his hand still up. "But it will work on them." He lowered his hand slightly, aimed at Famine's stomach. Alice was reminded of videos she had seen on youtube of babies kicking crazily inside their mother's womb as she watched Famine's stomach. The horseman was screaming and Sam's nose was bleeding but it finally worked as Famine slumped over, dead. Sam dropped to his knees.
Everyone looked at Sam. All of them were silent.
Alice sat outside the warehouse on the hood of the Impala. Hands behind her to hold her up as she stared at the sky. Mary-Jo and Cleo were just across the street at a motel, supposedly sleeping but Alice held no illusion of that. Cleo had gone so far as to ask Alice to transport her to the motel to avoid being too close to Sam. It had caused Sam to have such a miserably hurt expression on his face that he had allowed them to chain him up and lock him down without a fuss. Dean and Castiel were inside right now, probably standing outside the room they had locked Sam in.
"This isn't going to end well is it?" Alice muttered, eyes moving across the sky. She got no answer, as she expected. She sighed and turned her head as the warehouse door opened and Dean walked out. He was silent as he moved over to her and climbed on the car with her. Alice watched him for a moment before she put her arms around him, pulling his head to her shoulder. His arms went around her and she could feel that he was crying.
"I need help." Dean muttered.
"We're all here for you baby." Alice said, rubbing Dean's back. "Everything's going to work out fine. We'll be fine."
"I love you." Dean said.
"I love you too." Alice said. "Come on, you need some sleep, Sam will be fine." Dean lifted his head to look at her. "I'll drive."
"Thanks." Dean said, handing over the keys.
So there's the end of that episode. Does anyone want anything to happen in the next few chapters? Anything for Dean and Alice, Sam and Cleo, maybe even Castiel and Mary-Jo? Let me know.
