Sliding Further Into Chaos

by JayneWesterly

This is a continuation of Sliding Into Chaos. It begins directly after the events of that story. Something mysterious and dangerous is lurking in the shadows, Castiel and the boys are on the hunt to find out what it is so they can gank it. Alyx & Mina are finishing up their last semester, having some supernatural adventures of their own. Both parties are keeping secrets. Big ones.

1. Prologue

Prologue:

"I have something to say." The narrator AKA Alyx Harte clears her throat. Well, obviously I have something to say or I wouldn't be writing it down. Anyway. Just bear with me. I know it seems like I'm delaying the inevitable. The good stuff. The part when I finally get to join Sam and Dean and become a part of the family business. That's the part y'all want to hear about. I know it is. You love those boys; I mean how could you not? But let me tell you, dear reader, what I communicate here IS important otherwise I wouldn't be telling you.

Each tidbit of my life I reveal to you, after the initial meeting of the Winchesters until I join them; plays a predominant part in the story to come. Or should I say IS GOING TO play a key part in the saga to come. It's my origin story if you will, comic book fans. One cannot show up mid-way through a tale, a witty bad-ass superhero without some sort of history of how they got that way, am I right? You'd want to get to know them first. That way you can fully appreciate how far they've come to get to be so awesome. Wouldn't you? I mean really, wouldn't you? Admit it you totally would.

So yeah. I didn't want to write anything, but both Sam and Dean insisted. There are the Winchester gospels after all, and the boys told me I had to write something since I show up in the later chapters of those chronicles. If you've already met me, you'd know I don't like calling attention to myself and I told Sam and Dean as much, but they insisted. "People need to know who you are, Alyx. It only seems right." They said. "I mean after everything that happened and you saving our asses. We'd all be dead without you."

In my defense, I could probably have left out a few details; I do tend to get a little carried away when I allow myself to tell a story. Just ask anyone who knows me. Bobby, Charlie, Sam, Dean, Mina, Jean, even my parents would agree. But I digress. I promise you, oh dear faithful reader, if you stay here. If you continue on when it seems all is lost, or you feel like I'm rambling on and on and on, trying to explain things to you that you might think are not vital to their story. Just know they are and that it is all going to be worth it when you get to the end. I promise. Now on to the action.
