Chapter 2: Almost Human
Sam laid Lana down on one of the beds and decided that he was going to sleep on the chair for tonight. Dean had gone to the local pharmacy for pain killers since the woman looked like she would need one after she woke up.
"What are you?" asked Sam more to himself then to her and swiped a stray piece of hair out of her face
She had long straight brown hair down to her mid back, her eyes a round, almost almond shape to them, and her lips plump and naturally rosy. Her face was angular with tan skin, and the perfect nose right in the center, not too big not too small. Sam smiled at her and reached out to pick up her arm to see if she had any bruises or cuts. It was like a reflex as her arm instantly wrapped around her torso, far from him. He eyed her curiously, thinking she was awake. When she didn't show any signs of awakening he reached for her leg but it flung out and hit him square in the face.
"Shit!" he yelled as he fell to the floor then looked up but she was still fast asleep, her leg back in place, "You've got to be fucking kidding me! You are so awake!"
He reached out caustiously to open her eyes with his fingers and he saw that she was indeed still asleep. He took his arm back and tilted his head to the side as if she was something from an Alien movie.
"What are you?" he asked yet again
"Better!" she suddenly said and shot up into a sitting position
He looked at her in surprise as she stood up but then fell back down as a pain shot through her leg. She gasped in pain and grabbed her leg.
"Who the fuck are you!"
Sam smirked, "Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing..."
"Do you work for them?"
"Excuse me?"
Lana sighed shaking her head, "You're not one of them, can't be. Too innocent."
She moved her leg up to inspect it and noticed a bone protruding her skin. Shaking her head she stretched her neck and shook her head again. Her eyes turned a blood red as she suddenly snapped her leg back into place. Repeating her movments her eyes turned back to the light hazel they once were and she stood up. Sam looked at her warily and moved towards the weapons bag.
"Oh Damn, I'm a good guy kid. Fighting the good fight and shit,"she said bitterly, "The name's Lana Cale."
Sam nodded, "Sam Winchester."
Her head cocked to the side to look at him and he looked at her in curiousity. Lana shook her head and looked the other way.
"Lana? You okay?" he asked
"What happened? Earlier?"
"We, um, ran into you when you ran into the street."
She nodded and Sam continued, "What are you?"
"Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing."
He smiled lightly, "I'll show you mine if you show me yours."
"Hey, you're the one with the weapons," she said with an innocent smirk
He smiled, "I have some little powers but they come and go as they please."
"As?"
"Premonition, I've only been able to use telekinese once."
She nodded, "I'm human with let's just say a little vampire in me..."
"Care to elaborate?" they both heard a new voice join to conversation
Sam looked over his shoulder to spot Dean standing there with a small brown bag in his hands. Dean closed the door and set the bag on the table before standing next to his brother. Lana smiled and crossed her arms over her chest and continued.
"Actually, I don't feel like it. See, I'm in a little pain from getting mulled over by a rustly old Chevy Impala!" she exclaimed sappily
Dean frowned, "Hey! At least we didn't leave you there for whatever was coming for you. Maybe we should have because now we have a demon in our motel room."
She glowered angrily, "I'm a demon! Well then; Fuck you! I'm out of here!" she yelled and grabbed her coat from the couch before storming to the door
As she reached the door she doubled over as a wave of pain swept through her body. She cursed silently as she fell to the ground helplessly. Dean rushed to her side and tried to help her up but she shied away from him and continued to cry out in pain. The two Winchesters exchanged worried looks as they watched the young woman struggle to stand. Sam walked to them and bent down beside her.
"Lana, you need to let us help you," he whispered gently to her, "I'm going to carry you to the bed, ok?"
She nodded meekly and he picked her up in his arms and rested her softly onto the bed. There, she curled into a ball and began to shake in pain. Dean went to the table and took out the pain killers from the bag. He put two in his hand and got a bottle of water from his bag before walking to her. He sat in the bed next to the woman and handed her the pills that she took into her shaking cold hands.
"What..is...it?" she asked shakingly
"Pain killers, drink up Lana," he said handing the bottle to her
She shook her head and gave them back to him, "Can't."
Dean looked at her confused, "Why?"
"It'll..kill him," she said with a gulp
"What? Kill who?"
Sam studied her curiously before noticing that she was holding onto her stomach protectively. Realization rushed over him and he cocked his head to the side as if he had found the missing piece to the puzzle.
"Dean..."
The elder Winchester looked up at him, "What?"
Sam smiled in disbelief, "She's pregnant."
Lana looked at him still shaking and nodded. Sam walked over and pulled her hair out of her face. He took the hair band off of his wrist and tied her hair into a messy bun.
"I knew those girly habits of yours would come to use someday Sammy," Dean refering to the hair tie that was on his wrist
Sam shook his head and looked up at Dean, "It makes perfect sense Dean. Everything..."
"What are we supposed to do?" Dean asked worriedly
"I know for one thing, we can't take her to the hospital."
After Dean looked at him questionably Sam continued, "I have a feeling this baby isn't exactly normal..."
"Normal as in-"
"Not human."
0.0.0.0.0.
"I don't understand, I thought that you could take aspirin when you are pregnant," Dean said watching TV
"I don't think you can take certain kinds, I mean maybe the one you bought was too strong?"
"She couldn't have known."
"Or maybe you bought the generic kind, knowing your a cheap ass or maybe its just that the baby can't handle something like that. I don't know, we're going to have to ask her about it later."
Sam moved to the back of the motel room with a rag wet with cool water and began to gently wipe and pat her face and neck. She looked over at him and he was glad that the shaking had went down mostly but every now and then there was a slight quiver. He smiled down at her and she smiled back.
"How you feeling?" he asked softly
"Pretty good," she answered in a near whisper
"That's good. We were wondering why you can't have aspirin?"
"His system can't control it."
Sam nodded and stood up, "You hungry?"
"Not really."
He nodded again and headed back to Dean. Dean didn't look up at him but did see him head to the lap top.
"What ya doin Sammy?" he asked and moved to look over his brother's shoulder
"Well...if we're going to help Ms.Cale, then we need to learn some facts."
Dean groaned and flopped back onto the bed.
