DISCLAIMER
Everything but Kelly and characters you don't recognize belongs to the WB. Sorry this took so long. School. The name "Janna" comes from BTVS. It was Jenny Calendar's real name, but that's the only thing that was inspired by Robia LaMorte's character.
Kelly Moore, Jessica's sister walked into the tent.
"We have to stop this thing. It's gonna ruin the carnival," she stated.
"Do you know who it is?" Dean queried.
"I've researched everything. I have no clue," Kelly answered. She looked at the woman.
"Janna, do you have any ideas?" she queried. Janna looked at them, concern in her dark eyes.
"I've felt the echoes of this thing. It's dark...evil. But I don't know what it is," Janna answered.
"You said it was a poltergeist," Dean noted. "Did somebody die here?" he continued.
"I...I don't know. It's so evil, I don't see how it could be a person's spirit. But I do know it's not the creature that took Jessica from us," Janna replied.
"How do you know about that?" Sam wondered. Kelly and Janna looked at each other. Sam and Dean tried to read their expressions, but found that they were unable to. Finally, the older woman blew out a breath.
"Twenty-two-years ago, one of the elder women had a vision and had seen signs," she began.
"I---I don't understand," Sam interjected.
"We are Romany. Kalderash," Janna explained. "Her vision was one of turmoil. A child crying, a fire, a woman screaming, burning---" Dean's stomach knotted as she spoke. She was speaking of his mother's death. He just knew it. One look at Sam told him that his younger brother had reached the same conclusion.
"You say the woman had gotten signs? What kind of signs?" Sam prodded.
"One of power, strength. The baby in her vision would grow up to possess powerful abilities," Janna stated. Dean started. Sam. She had to be talking about Sam.
"I don't understand. What does this have to do with Jess?" Sam wondered.
"Jessica was born a protector. She was sent to make sure you were safe," Janna explained. Sam blew out a breath.
"So it really was my fault. She died because of me," he whispered, looking at the ground.
"No," Kelly's sharp voice caused him to look up. "Jess made a decision. She accepted her destiny and did as instructed. She often told us that falling in love with you was a bonus." Her voice became soft again. "She died to protect you, Sam. To make sure you weren't taken." A lump appeared in Sam's throat and he struggled to swallow. Dean laid a hand on his brother's shoulder, the only form of comfort he knew how to give.
AUTHOR'S NOTE
I'll get more into the poltergeist later in the story. I just needed this chap to explain Jessica, and I apologize for its shortness. And I'm going to be working on a really big paper in Philosophy, so chapters may be even more scarce.
