Chapter 10 Firestarter And The Psychic

Dean's POV

We made it to Kansas in good time, all thanks to me I might add. Kira slept on Sam's lap the entire ride and he barley said a word. I know that he's as worried as me. I know we said that Kira had no chioce to kill those people, but she still has to live with that for the rest of her life. We pulled up to Massouri's house around noon.

"Hey Sam."

"Yea."

"Wake her up. I'll go see if she's home." I said as I left the car. Before I could even knock on the door, Missouri opened it and was stareing me in the face.

"Well boy bring her in. Don't just stand there." She said with a worried look.

"How did you? Oh wait never mind. Sam's getting her out of the car now."

"DEAN!" I heard Sam yell from the car. Massouri and I ran down to meet him.

"What's wrong?" and then I saw her. Kira was red like she was burned. She had and extreamily high feaver and we couldn't wake her up.

"Kira! Kira wake up." I was shaking her to hopefully get her to open her eyes, but it was no use. "Kira please open your eyes. Please baby girl." I was begging.

"Let's get her inside before someone sees." Missouri suggested. Sam and I agreed and I carried her, but it seemed like any kind of contact with her skin caused her pain.

"I'm sorry Kira, but we have to get you in the house." I whispered to her. We got her in the house and I layed her on the couch. "So what's wrong with her?"

"I don't know. I went to wake her up and that's how I found her." Sam said sitting on the chair across the room.

"Boys I need you to tell me everything that happened to her ok."

I was about to answer her and tell her everything, but Sam got there before me.

"The pyrokanesis."

"Wait. What? Since when was she pyrokanetic?"

"She was possessed by the demon we were hunting and a week or so after that she realized what she could do." Sam answered. I was watching Kira and it looked like she was struggling just to breath. I went to get a cold cloth to put on her head and sat down next to her while Sam and Massouri continued to talk.

"That might be the cause for this. She was never ment to have that gift so it's struggling to break out of her. It causes so much pain that Kira is fighting to keep it in just to ease it."

"So we have to get rid of it to cure her?" I asked not taking my eyes off my little sister. "How are we going to do that?"

"Well boys to be honest, I don't know?"

"Wait you don't know. I thought this was your kinda thing. Your the only chance she has and you don't know how to help her." I yelled. I was angry, not at Massouri, but at the demon. Even when he wasn't around he was still causing pain.

"Listen boy if this was any other visit I would smack you with a spoon for that little outburst, but since your sisters life is on the line and we don't have a whole lot of time I'm gonna let it slide."

"Who cares. Just help her and you can hit me with as many spoons as you want."

Missouri's POV

"Who cares. Just help her and you can hit me with as many spoons as you want."

I could tell from the tone in his voice he was scared. Scared for his younger sisters life, but I just didn't know how to fix this. I glanced over at Kira and she looked bad. I know I have to try something, but what? Then it hit me.

"Wait!" I said and I left the room. I came back in around 10 minutes later and Dean and Sam jumped up to meet me.

"What?" they asked in unison.

"This." I held up a book so they could see it. "I think that this might work, but only if she is strong enought to endour it."

"What is it?" Sam asked. Dean went back and sat next to Kira.

"I can't get rid of that power no matter how hard I try."

"So how's that book gonna help?" Dean asked looking up at me with pleading eyes.

"Simple. I'm gonna transfer the power to another life."

The boys just looked at me like I was crazy.

"What do you mean transfer to another life?" Sam asked standing next to his brother and sister.

"Well there is no way I can rid Kira's body of that, but I might be able to move it."

"Ok you still lost me." Dean said.

"If I do this right and it works, I'll take the pyrokansis from her and transfer it to something else."

"Ok so where are you going to transfer it to?" Sam asked.

"And what do you mean if you do it right? Don't you know how to do this?" Dean finished.

"I've never done it before, but it's the only chance she has." I looked at the brothers and then down at there young sister. She was burning up and we didn't have alot of time left.

"Ok. If you think it'll help. Let's do it." Dean said getting up and standing by Sam. Sam nodded in agreement. "So how does it work?"

"Dean pick her up and bring her upstaires to my spare room." Dean went over and gently picked Kira up. Any type of movement, no matter how small, caused the girl a great deal of pain. Tears were running down the poor girls face and you could tell it was also causing her brothers to suffer.

"I'm so sorry baby girl. I have to do this in order to help you." Dean whispered to Kira. Sam followed close behind. We got to the room and I told Dean to place her down in the center of the room.

"Ok so what now?" Sam asked

"So I'm sorry boys, but you have to leave the room." I said.

"What? No. We're staying." Dean said.

"You can't. If you two stay there is a chance that this power will find it's way to you. You have to let me do this alone."

Dean and Sam looked at each other, (Still see what I mean. I think they like, I mean REALLY like each other:) "Ok fine. Just be careful."

"I will. Don't worry this'll all seem like a bad dream in the morning. Just go wait downstairs." And with that order they were gone. It was just me and Kira in the room and I felt for the poor girl. I knew what this was gonna take out of both of us. More her than me. I knew the pain it was going to cause and to be honest I didn't want to continue. I drew the markings around Kira's motionless form and began reading. I could feel her pain and sorrow. I saw her kill those people. Everytime she used this gift I saw and felt. She was screaming so loud and I couldn't blame her. I just kept reading and halfway through her bady took a standing position. She was still out cold, but her body was upright faceing me. I knew it was time so I cammanded the power to come into me and leave her alone and sure enought it did. The pain was the worse thing I had ever felt, but I knew that Kira was feeling worse. Her screams were so loud I was surprised none of my neighbors called the police. I also knew that she would be feeling it for some time to come. Her power flowed into me causeing her to drop to the floor. I stood there, taking in the power and after 5 minutes everything went dark.

Dean's POV

Sam and I made our way to the kitchen when we heard the screaming. I knew it was Kira and my first instinct was to run to her. Sam had to grab me and hold me back.

"You have to let Massouri do this. She has to do this alone, you heard her."

"I know Sam, but listen." I said as the screams continued. "There has to be something we can do."

"There isn't. We just have to wait this out. I know you feel helpless and so do I, but still. We just have to wait."

I sat down at the table when Sam let me go. 'This sucks. She's in so much pain and there's nothing I can do.' I thought as we waited. I kept glancing at Sam and I know he felt the same way I did. We must have waited for what seemed like hours when everything was quiet. I looked at Sam and we both took off for the stairs. We made our way to the spare room and knocked.

"Missouri? Everything ok in there?" Sam asked throught the door. We didn't hear anything so we decided to go in. I led the way just in case. When we opened the door we say Kira and Massouri laying on the floor. I quickly ran to Kira while Sam went to check on Massouri.

"She ok Sam?" I asked.

"She's alive yeah. How's Kira?"

"I don't really know. I mean she's alive I know that much, but she still looks and feels the same." I was still worried, but I also knew we had to wait for one of them to wake up before we got any answers. I placed Kira on the couch in the room and went to help Sam with Massouri. We waited again.

"I'm getting so sick of waiting around!" I said out loud. "Oops. Wasn't supposed to say that."

Sam looked over at me, he was sitting by Kira keeping an eye on her. "I know how you feel." When he finished we saw Massouri start to move. I moved to her bed while Sam stayed by Kira.

"Massouri you ok?" I asked. She nodded and sat up.

"How's Kira?"

"Still asleep." I said as I pointed to the couch. "Is she gonna be ok?"

"It worked I know that. I can feel the fire inside me. That poor girl. What she had to suffer through." Massouri said shaking her head. I just looked at her.

"What do ya mean, suffer?" I asked.

"You never saw it?"

Sam and I shook our heads. "Saw what?" Sam asked.

"For as long as she had this power she was in pain. The more she used it the worse the pain got."

"She never used it though. It never looked like she was in pain." I said.

"Then she hid it well. Probably so you two wouldn't worry. What happened the last time time she used it?"

"Well Sam got kidnapped by rednecks and we went to find him. Sadly these rednecks were strong and they ended up getting us to. I don't know what they did to her, all I know is that when she freed herself and saw me that's when she sent a wave of fire twords the one guy and his kid. After that she passed out." I explained.

"So that was the breaking point there. Since pyrokansis is controled by a persons emotions, when she saw you being harmed in a that way, all that power was released in one wave."

"But she used it before." Sam added. "And she looked fine after, almost happy."

"Yes, so you wouldn't worry. She needed to learn how to control it in order to protect you. If she got angry at one of you than that wave that hit those people would of been sent in your direction, whether she ment to or not." Massouri explained.

"So she went through all this just to keep us safe and make us not worry. Why would she do that?" I asked checking on Kira. She was still asleep, but her feaver was going down.

"Think about it Dean, all we do is look out for her and keep her safe. If she thought that she could harm us than she would do everything in her power to make sure that didn't happen." Sam said sitting in the chair next to me.

"Exactly."

"So ok well we got that she didn't want to hurt us or make us worry. So onto what happened in here." I said to Massouri. "I mean how come you look fine and she looks half dead? How do you stand the pain?"

"Well my gifts that I had from birth cancel out the pain of this one. It hurts, but nothing compaired to what she went through.

She'll be ok now boys. Just give her time to sleep. Maybe you two should get some rest too." Massouri said getting up. "I'll show you to the guest room."

"I'm gonna stay here." I said.

"Me too." Sam agreed. "But I get the bed."

"I think not bitch."

"Jerk."

"Ok then. I'll see you in the morning." then she left.

"You really think she'll be ok?" Sam asked me.

"She looks better already so yeah I do." I said getting in the bed. Sam slept on the floor next to Kira and we slept through the night. When I got up in the morning I looked over to check on Kira, but she wasn't there. I jumped out of the bed and went to wake up Sam.

"Sam get up, Kira's gone." I said shaking him. He jumped up faster than I did and we went downstaires and who was in the kitchen but Kira.

Kira's POV

I was sitting in the kitchen eating when I head what sounded like a stampeed. I looked up to the door way and there stood Dean and Sam.

"Morning!" I said with a big smile. They looked at each other (Yep they want each other! I think it's Dean's six pack that drives Sammy wild:) And then at me. They were looking at me like I was crazy. "What?"

"Are you ok?" Dean asked as Sam and him sat at the table.

"Fine why?"

"You sure?" Sam asked.

"I think I would know if I was ok or not, but if you want I'll go ask myself."

"So you feel fine?" Dean asked.

"Yes. Do you two feel ok? You acting a little weird." I didn't know what the hell was going on. I had a feeling I was missing something, not just because of they was my brothers were acting, but the fact that my whole body hurt and I have no idea why.

"Um we're fine." Sam said glancing over at Dean who looked as confused as he was.

"You sure?" I asked as Massouri walked into the room. I looked up at her, "Good morning!"

"Good morning! Dean, Sam can I see you two in here for a second." Ok I didn't know what the hell was going on, but I really wanted to. Sam and Dean got up and followed her to the living room. Me, I just continued to eat my Coco Krispies. I wanted to know what was going on, but really I didn't care.

Sam's POV

"What the hell?" I asked Missouri. I knew Dean was wondering the same thing, but he would have asked a little differently. "She doesn't seem to remember anything."

"I know. That's what I wanted to talk to you about."

"Ok so talk." Dean spat out. Missouri gave him a fearful glance and he shut up. 'Well looks like he has a spoon in his future.' I thought with a smile.

"Well the spell that I used not only transfered her power to me, but also erased every memory that she ever had it."

"So she won't remember killing those people?" I asked. Missouri shook her head no.

"She won't remember any of it. She'll remember you getting kidnapped Sam and Dean getting beat up, but there will be hole there when she used it."

"Well I guess this is a good thing. Now she won't have the guilt of killing them. And she'll never remember?" Dean asked.

"No. All those memories were erased, not just covered up. It's like they never exsisted at all."

"Well in that case let's go get something to eat before she eats all the Coco Krispies." Dean said as we walked into the kitchen.

Kira's POV

I looked up from my third bowl of Krispies to see Dean comming in the room.

"Hey Kira pass the Krispies will ya." I just smiled at him. "You didn't eat all them did you?"

"What I was hungry." I said as I shoved the last spoonful in my mouth.

"So what are we supposed to eat?"

I just shrugged.

"Bitch." Dean said with a smile.

"Dick."

"Hey what's up?" Sam asked as he came in looking at Dean.

"Kira ate all the Coco Krispies." Dean said as he leaned back in his chair. Sam looked at me and I just smiled at him too. At least he smiled back.

"So what's going on?" I asked as Missouri started making eggs and stuff for my brothers.

"What do ya mean?" Dean asked.

"Ok come on, I know you two better than that. Somethings wrong."

"Nothings wrong why?" Sam added helping Missouri cook.

"Whatever. I get some eggs and bacon too right?" I asked. All three of them looked at me. "What? I'm still hungry."

"How can you eat all of that and still stay so small?" Sam asked.

"Lucky I guess." I answered and then my phone rang. I looked at the caller id and didn't know the number, "I'll be back." I got up and went into the other room to answer it.

"Hello?"

"Is this Kira Winchester?" A male voice asked.

"Yes, and this is?"

"Miss this is Kevin Thomas. I'm a doctor at St. Michaels Hospital."

"Ok." was my only response as I sat down. Why didn't I like the way this way going.

"Miss Winchester are you sitting down?"

(I'm good aren't I!) "Um yes why? What is this about?" I asked.

"Well miss..."

"Stop calling me miss and just tell me what's wrong!" I told the man. I didn't mean to sound angry, but I wanted to know what the hell was going on.

"Ok. I'm afraid that I have some bad news."

"What?" I asked as I felt tear welling up in my eyes.

"Is your father John Winchester?"

"Yes. Is he ok?" 'Oh no. Not dad, anything, anyone, but dad.'

"Well miss there was an accident."

"Is he ok?" I asked again.

"I'm afraid he did't make it. Can you come to the hospital."

"So he's..." I couldn't say it. I didn't want to say it.

"Yes. I'm afraid he's dead. His injuries were to massive for us to help him. Can you come to the hospital and we can talk about it in person?"

"Yes. I'll be there as soon as I can. Thanks for calling."

"Miss wait, you have to come to the morgue and ask for me. Do you remember my name?"

"Yes." and I hung up. I sat there not wanting to tell my brothers that our father was gone. I got up and went to the kitchen. As soon as Dean saw me he knew something was wrong.

"Kira what is it?"

I looked up at him and started to cry. I didn't want to say anything. If I did than that would mean it was real. Sam and Missouri came over to us and looked at Dean.

"Kira what happened? Who was on the phone?" Sam asked.

"Dad..."

"It was dad?" Dean asked. I shook my head no. "Then what?"

"He's...It was a doctor at a hospital...He said that dad's..." I couldn't say it, but I could tell that they all got what the call was about.

"Wait are you trying to say that dad's dead?" Dean asked. I nodded.

"He said, I mean the doctor said to come to the hospital and talk in person. He said there was an accident and that dad's injuries were massive and there was nothing they could do and..." and I lost it. So did Dean and Sam, but I was worse. I fell to the floor and Dean and Sam joined me. Together we sat there and cried. Missouri left us alone. I don't know how long we stayed like that, but I knew we had to go. Looks like Sam read my mind.

"We should go. What hospital was it?"

"St. Michaels. Where is it?" I asked getting up.

"The next town over." Dean answered as he got to his feet. I hated seeing my brothers cry, especially Dean. I mean he never cried. Ever. We pack up our stuff and said good-bye to Missouri and we were on our way to the hospital. The ride was quiet. Dean turned on the radio, but very low. Sam just stared out the window and I looked at the floor. I don't think any of us believed what was happening.

"Maybe it's a mistake." Sam finally said. Dean looked at him and so did I. "I mean with all the fake id's we use, maybe it's wrong."

"As much as I want to believe that, I don't know. It just feels real, like he's really gone." I said looking back down. I didn't mean to crush Sam's hope of our dad still being alive, but I knew. I just knew and I knew Dean knew too, dad was gone.
