Chapter 8 The Prank War Continues And The Demon's Life

Eleven hours later we made it to Navada and yes I was driving. Sam was asleep and Dean was out like a light in the back. (Yup Dean again in the back HAHAHA) I was the only one awake and I had to pay Sammy back for that lame ass prank him and dad tried to pull on Dean and me. I also have to get Dean for a couple of comments he made before. I pulled off to the side of the rode as smooth as possible as to not wake up my dear, sleeping brothers. Stupid ass me forgot that Dean has like a weird connection with this fricken car and the minute I turned it off, he was awake and alert.

"Why are we stopped Kira? Is something wrong?" Dean asked sitting up and looking around.

"Calm down Dean. Nothings wrong. I was just gonna well...um I was." I couldn't think of anything to get myself out of this.

"What were you planning on doing Kira?" He gave me a evil look and he knew what I was planning on doing.

"I wasn't going to do anything. What makes you think I was planning on doing anything?" I tried to sound as calm as possible. Failed number one.

"You were gonna prank us weren't you?"

"No." I said as I started the car and pulled onto the road. "Why would you think that me, dear sweet Kira would ever think of doing something like that to my dear older brothers?" I said with a sweet smile. he didn't buy it. Failed number two. (Are we keeping count here kiddies:)

"Nice Kira. I let you drive and you were planning on pranking me. Not cool."

He was talking so loud that he woke up Sam.

"Morning Sammy." I said looking at him with a huge smile.

"What's wrong?" He asked looking from Dean to me.

"Nothing's wrong. Really." I answered trying again to look inoccent. He didn'y buy it either. failed number three. I contuned to drive to the motel and it was my turn to pay.

Dean's POV

"Sam. Kira's planning something."

"What do ya mean?" Sam asked still half asleep.

"She's planning on pranking us." Dean said.

"Why?"

"Think about it dude. You and dad tried that lame prank and now she want's payback."

"Ok I get why she would want to prank me, but why you?" Sam asked taking the bags out of the trunk.

"You know, I don't know, but I'm gonna figure it out before she gets me." After I said that Kira came waking up.

Kira's POV

"Room 24, um what's up?" I asked my brothers. As soon as I got here they stopped talking. "What did I do?"

"It's not what you DID do, it's what you were GOING to do." Sam said eyeing me up.

"Oookkk." I was a little confused. "Wait! Dean you told him I was planning something didn't you." I yelled pointing at Dean.

"No I oh hell, yeah I said something."

"Great. Well there goes my plan right out the window." I said throwing my hands in the air, walking to our room. 'No damn it! I'm still going to get you two.'

We sat in our room waiting for some trace of dad and we were getting a teeny bit bored and hungry.

"I'm hungry," I wined from my bed. "Can we go get something to eat please?"

"Yea why not. I'm starving anyway." Dean said grabbing his keys off the table. Sam nodded and followed Dean and I outside.

We went to the diner down the street and took a seat in one of the booths. We gave the waiter our order and just like the last time, he looked at us like we each had three heads.

"Ok so why we wait for dad, what do ya say we find something to kill?" Dean suggested.

"Why not." Sam and I agreed. Sam wipped out his laptop and began to serch for stuff that goes bump.

"Ok I found a case of people who vanish in Georgia with no trace at all, and a couple cases of body theift."

"Body theift?" I asked drinking my dew.

"Yup. I guess they were stolen from the morgue."

"No I like the vanishing people one better." Dean suggested.

"Ok so it's said that people have vanished from a parking lot of an apartment building on main street."

I tried to put my bottle of Mt. Dew down, but couldn't. I looked at Dean and he was stuck to his beer bottle too.

"What the hell man?" Dean asked before I could.

"Oh Sammy you didn't?" I looked over at Sam who was trying to hold back his laugh.

"Oh I did!" He laughed as he held up the tube of super glue.

"Not cool Sammy, so not cool." I said as I saw that Dean was trying so hard to get his bottle off his hand just as I was trying to get the bottle off mine.

"Ha! You draw on my face, and I glue your hands to the bottle."

"This is so lame man. So lame." Dean said not even looking up at Sam.

"Yeah, but it's Kira one, me one, and you well none." Sam said with a smile.

"Oh your gonna get it Sam." Dean promised. "Now get back to this vanishing thing."

I finally got the bottle off my hand and began to think of a plan to get Sam back. 'I have to make this good. Better than any other prank I've done before.' I thought. Sam explaind the people vanishing and I really wasn't paying attation. I was too busy thinking of payback.

"Kira? Hello Kira?" Dean was waving his hand in front of my face.

"What?"

"Just making sure your still with us."

We ate our food and went back to our room. I have to give it to Sammy, it was funny watching Dean try to eat with a bottle glued to his hand. He did manage to get it off, but it took a whole lotta scrubbing.

"Wow I rubbed my palm raw." Dean said.

"Well I'm not touching that one with a ten foot pole." I said with a smile.

"Hum."

So we waited for our dad and sure enough he showed up about 2 hours later.

"Hey kids. Waiting long?" He asked.

"Just a while." I answered.

"Well lets get down to business." He said.

"Ok so you said that the demon is still alive right?" Dean asked our father.

"Yeah. From what I found out that demon that we killed before..."

"You mean when you shot me?" I asked sitting next to Dean.

"Yes when I shot you. Anyway it turns out that THAT demon was acually THE demon's child." our dad explained.

"Ok so this spawn has spawn of it's own?" Dean asked.

"Yes."

"Ok so we have no more bullets for the colt and the demon is still alive. So what are we supposed to do now?" Sam asked.

"Gee Sammy I thought you died you were so quiet." I said with a smile. "But he does have a point. With no more bullets we can't kill it."

"Well that's not exactly true." With that statement our dad got our full attation. "I know where there are 4 more bullet's for the gun."

"Ok." Dean said getting up, "Let's go get them."

"No. Not all of us."

"What? Dad no. You can't go alone! Now that we know the demon is still alive it's better that we all stick together." Sam said putting his hand on dad's shoulder.

"And since you killed it's, um well child I think it'll be a little more pissed at us now." I added.

" Mouth Kira. And that's one more reason for you two to stay here."

"Um dad, there's three of us." Dean so smartly informed him.

"I'm not going alone, Sam's comming with me." Dad said looking at Sam, who was dumbstruck.

"What?" I said a little louder than I wanted too.

"I need his help to get these bullets."

"So why don't we all go? It'll be easier with all of us than just you two." Dean said standing next to me.

"No. I can't risk all of your lives. I don't even want to risk Sam's, but there is no other choice." Dad said getting ready to leave. "You kid's have to understand that I'm doing all this to keep you safe."

"That's not true." I said from behind Dean. They all turned to look at me.

"And what is that supposed to mean young lady?" Dad asked.

"Well if your trying to keep us safe than why are you taking Sammy with you and leaving Dean and me behind? Dean's right, it'll be easier and safer with all of us backing you up dad." I said never looking up from the floor. Trying to act brave and stand up to my father, failed number four. I think I was facusing on Dean's shoes at that point. They were really pretty.

"Listen Kira, I know that your worried about Sam and me, but you have to understand that it's better this way." Dad answered placing his hand on my shoulder. "Besides there is something I need Dean and you to do why Sam and I are getting these bullets."

"What?" Dean chimed in.

Dad looked at him and began to explain while Sam came and well just held me. I was scared. Not just for Sammy and my father, but for Dean and me too. 'We were stronger as a group. I mean why can't dad see that?' I thought. After dad explained all that crap to Dean it was time to leave. We walked out to the cars and said our goodbyes.

"You two be careful you hear me. The last thing I need is to loose two of my children." Dad said giving Dean and me a hug good-bye. "You look out for her ok Dean."

"Yes sir."

"And you look out for your brother ok baby girl?" dad said holding me a little longer. I nodded and didn't want to let go. I mean this could be the last time we're all together. Dean came over a pulled me out of dad's and my hug.

"We have work to do." He whispered.

"Well Sam let's go." dad said getting into the driver's seat of his truck.

"Sammy wait!" I yelled and ran up to him, giving him a hug. "Be careful ok. I want to see you still breathing again." I said with tears streaming down my face. Dean came up and joined our little 'chick flick moment'

"I'll be fine don't worry." Sam said.

"Promise?" I asked looking up at him.

He gave me a big smile, "Promise. See ya jerk."

"Be safe bitch." Dean said hitting Sam in the arm. Sam climbed into the passenger seat of dad's truck and they drove off, leaving Dean and me still standing in the parking lot.

"So do you think they'll be ok?" I asked my older brother who still had his arm around me.

"Yeah. I mean it's dad and Sam, they'll be fine. Let's go."

"Where are we going? I wasn't exactly paying attation to dad as he was talking." I said getting into the passenger seat of the impala. 'Wow it's not as much fun riding shot-gun without Sammy to laugh at in the back.'

"Well we have to go to Pennsylvania."

"Pennsylvania? Why do we have to go there?"

"Well we have to go to Gettysburg."

"Ok?"

"Dad said that there is a man there and we need to get something off him,"

"What?"

"A cross." he answered turning on the radio. "I guess this cross was used to bless the bullet's for the colt."

"So we need it to make sure these new bullet's will kill the demon. Oh put on 'Enter Sandman!'" Did I mention I love that song?

"With this cross they should." He said putting on 'Enter Sandman.' See he loves me.

After the fifth time of listening to the same song, Dean turned off the radio and the rest of the drive we were pretty much silent. Sammy said that he'd call when they got a hold of the bullets to tell us he and dad were ok. We still haven't heard anything yet. We made it to PA in a good amount of time and went to Gettysburg to find this guy and cross. We tracked him down and let's just say he wasn't too happy to have visitors. We found that out with a shotgun pointed at our faces.

"What the hell do you want!" this guy yelled pulling out his gun. Dean quickly pulled me behind him, placing himself between me and the barrel of the gun. "Get off my porch before I loose my cool."

"We just need to talk to you for one minute." Dean said getting angry that he had a gun in his face. I could see him motioning for me to get his gun that he always kept tucked in the back of his pants.

"About what? There is nothing I can do for you. And you girl keep your hands where I can see them!" He yelled pointing the gun at me. I just held my hands up so he can see them. 'So much for getting Dean's gun! Damn it!'

"Don't point that at her!" Dean was getting pissed.

"Just go away. There is nothing I can do for you so leave before I shoot you both!"

"Well you can put the gun down. That'll be a start on what you can do for us." Dean said with a grin.

"And why should I do that?" the man said slightly squeezing the trigger.

"Dean maybe we should just go." I said from behind.

"Dean? And that makes you Kira right?" the man said attampting to point the gun at me again. As he moved it to me Dean moved with him, never letting his eyes off this man. Finally he put the gun down. "Your John Winchester's children aren't you?"

I looked up at Dean and he looked as shocked as me. I nodded and the man invited us in his home. Dean was a little hesatint at first, but after a minute he agreed. Although he made sure I was never out of his sight.

"So you know our dad?" Dean asked.

"Yes. John called me a couple days ago saying he needed my help."

"Wow dad asking for help. Never thought I would live to see this day." I said looking around the room. 'Pretty plain and dirty.'

"Yes. He said that he was after the thing that killed his wife, your mother. I knew what he needed and I agreed to give it to him." The man said looking at me look around the room. "I have to say you are a beautiful young lady with very nice curves."

That little comment got him a death glare from Dean as he moved twords me. "So this cross." he said as he moved next to me. (So pertective! Isn't it cute?)

"Yes the Black Cross of Berziea. Used in the first recorded exorcsim over 300 years ago. John said that he needed this in order to bless some sort of rare bullet."

"Can we just get the cross and then we'll be out of your way." I knew Dean wanted to leave and he was trying to sound as polite as possible, but when you have a gun pointed at your face and some man as old as your father calling your little sister a 'beautiful young lady with nice curves.' you tend to be a little angry.

"I can show you where it is, but there is a problem." He said asking us to follow him.

"And the problem is." Dean asked.

"I can't get it. You have too." he said pointing to Dean.

"Um ok. So where is it?"

"There." the man pointed to a room at the end of a long hallway. Dean started walking down the hall, me following close behind him, but the old man grabbed my arm and pulled me back. "Hey!" I yelled. Safe to say this didn't sit too well with Dean. As soon as he heard me he reached for his gun and pointed it at the man.

"Don't touch her again." Yup Dean was angry, VERY angry.

"I'm sorry, but you have to do this alone Dean."

"No way. I'm not leaving her here alone with you." Dean said stepping in between the man and me once again.

"You have to. It's the only way to get it and from what John said you really need it. I won't harm her don't worry."

Dean looked back at me and knelt down to look at me eye to eye. "I don't like this idea. I don't want to leave you here alone."

"It looks like we don't have a choice Dean."

"Damn it! Ok fine, but here." Dean handed me his gun. "If this guy so much as looks at you the wrong way, shoot him."

I nodded. Dean turned to face the man. "If I find out that you layed so much as a finger on her I'll rip you apart you understand me?"

"I won't don't worry. There isn't alot of time left, you should hurry and get the cross."

"Remember what I said." Dean said looking at me. I nodded again and he began to walk down the hall.

Dean's POV

'I can't believe I left Kira by herself with that guy! Oh if he even looks at her funny he's a dead man.' I thought making my way to the room at the end of the hall. 'Stupid cross, stupid demon, stupid old man alone with my baby sister.' I made it to the room and went inside and saw this black cross aginst the far corner wall. 'Ok and I had to do this alone why?' Just like that the light's went off and a minute later came back on. The room was now different and now chained to the walls were Sam to the left and Kira to the right. 'What the hell?'

"Choose."

I heard a voice and it made me jump. "What?"

"Choose."

"Choose what? What are you talking about?" 'Great now I'm talking to myself. Teriffic!'

"If you want the cross young hunter, you must give a life in return, now choose."

"A life? Um no."

"You must hunter. A soul for the cross. Your choices are the two closest to your heart. Now choose."

The voice sounded like it was getting pissed.

"I can't. Choose between them. No way."

"Then I will choose for you."

I saw Sam start struggling and he began to scream. I saw the welts and the burn marks appear on his body. Kira looked unfazed by the whole thing, like she didn't see what was happening.

"Stop please. Take my life instead." I yelled without a second thought.

"There young hunter."

"There what?"

"Take the cross and leave. For your attempted sacrafice and for the love you have for your siblings I will allow you to take the cross without the payment of a soul."

With that the room changed back and Sam and Kira were gone. I walked up and took the cross. 'Heavier that I thought it would be. Now I should get back to Kira.' And I left the room. I could see the man and Kira at the end of the hall. The man was standing near the right corner looking at her and she was leaning aginst the wall to the left, not taking her eyes off the man. I could see she was clutching the gun and was ready to shoot if she had to. "That's my girl." I whispered to myself as I made my way back. Kira looked up and as soon as she saw me she ran to me.

Kira's POV

I was leaning aginst the wall, keeping a close eye on the creepy guy. From the looks of it he was keeping a close eye on me too. 'Gross.' I looked over and saw Dean walking down the hall, cross in hand. I ran up to him and hugged him.

"What was that for?" he asked putting the cross in his bag.

"What the hell took you so long?"

"I was only gone for a couple minutes Kira."

"Um no try like a couple hours."

He was shocked when I said that.

"What?"

"Time works differently there. What seemed like mear minutes was acually hours here." The man said.

"Oh well at least your back and ok right. I mean you are ok aren't you?" I asked.

"Yea I'm fine. And you? Did he touch you or anything?"

"Nope I'm fine, but can we go now?"

"Yeah let's go. Thanks for your help." Dean said to the man as we left.

"Tell John that he still owes me." He laughed.

We got back into the impala just in time. My phone began to ring and I hurried to pick it up.

"Hello?"

"Hey Kira."

"Sammy! Are you ok?"

"Yeah dad and I are fine. How are you two?"

"We're good. Did you get the bullets?"

"Tell him we got the cross." Dean yelled out.

"We got the bullets. It was a pain, but we got em."

"Dean said to tell dad that we got the cross."

"He said good. We'll meet you in Gettysburg. Dad said Dean should know where to go."

I put my hand on the phone and turned to Dean, "Dad said you should know where they're going to meet us?" He nodded and I went back to talking to Sammy. "He said yeah."

"Ok. We'll be there in a couple hours so dad said you both should get some sleep and he said to keep that cross safe."

"Ok we will. See ya Sammy."

"Bye"

And I hung up. I fell asleep a half hour after that. I was just happy everyone was ok.

"Kira. Wake up. We're here." Dean said shaking me.

I opened my eyes and looked around, "And here would be?"

"A cabin we used when dad and I used to hunt here." Dean said getting out of the car. I quickly followed him into the cabin.

"Just as I remember it." Dean said putting his bag down.

"What dirty and tiny?" I asked with a smile.

Yea pretty much. You hungry?" He asked heading for the kitchen.

"A little, but I'm not so sure I want to eat anything that's in here."

"Don't worry. Dad knew he was comming here so he stocked up. So what do ya want?"

"Anything eatible." I answered sitting at the table.

Dean and I ate and talked for a while. Then we decided to get some sleep. We went to the whole one bedroom and it had two sets of bunkbeds in it. Dean was out like a light in a second and I layed there thinking and hopeing that Sam and dad would be there when we woke up. Then I fell asleep.
