"Hey Dean."
The bloke Anna had spoken to stared in shock as Harry and Hermione watched, silently coming to the conclusion that Anna was like them, possibly as powerful as Dumbledore. The living room seemed to tense even more as the man stared at the woman he so obviously knew before he was looking over at the two teenagers.
"I hope they're not…" 'Dean' spoke up, looking at Anna quickly as she shook her head but looked around before she asked, "Castiel or Uriel here?"
"Cas took us outta the barn and shucked his feathered arse outta there. The other dick, we ain't heard a thing." Those words seemed to be a relief to Anna as her breath indicated. "We just got back ourselves. Good job with those uglies, by the way."
"Well, You two, Ruby and Bobby saved my life. I kinda owe you." Dean nodded before he looked to the kids behind Anna and nodded their way.
"Who're your friends, Anna? Sammy and I not good enough?" There was a smirk that set off Dean's face as looking boyish as Anna shook her head before she was taking Harry and Hermione into the kitchen and sitting them down.
"We gotta talk, Dean."
"Start by introducing me to these two?" Dean told her, holding up his hand before he went to a fridge, opened it and grabbed a couple of bottles before he was closing it. Anna took the second bottle without being offered it and sighed.
"Dean, I want you to meet Harry Potter and Hermione Granger. Harry, Hermione, Meet Dean Winchester, one of the brothers I told you about." Anna introduced them all as Hermione straightened up in her seat and looked to them both. Catching the look, Dean rolled his eyes while Anna nodded.
"Actually, we took on some dicks while Anna here and a friend of my brothers got outta there. It was in her parent's church." Dean casually told the teens, followed by a swig of the bottle, "What's your story?"
"I don't know if we should tell you." Hermione spoke up before Harry could begin talking. She looked suspiciously at Anna and Dean, "We don't even know where you've brought us, Anna."
"Sorry. We're in Sioux Falls, South Dakota." Anna apologised. Their mouths dropped. Shocked, both wizards looked between the two Americans casually leaning on the countertops as Dean nodded.
"Safest place there is here." Dean spoke up, "Bobby Singer's scrapyard."
He looked proud as the two friends looked to one another and decided to come out with what they'd been running from. Their tale caused Dean to gain a dangerous look, one far more formidable than Anna's as Hermione drew it to a close with a, "Now we're here in a whole new country. We don't even know if we'll be able to get back to England, not without Anna's help."
"And these guys literally have no sense of morality."
Harry shook his head, causing an outburst of swearing from Dean and a loud 'thunk' to echo through the kitchen before he looked to the woman beside him and asked, "They know what you are? I thought your kind liked to keep quiet about your existence."
Anna shook her head, looking like she had come to a realisation, "No. But I have a feeling they think I'm a witch, like them."
"Get them outta here." Dean warned, looking horrified as he turned to go out of the backdoor. The dangerous look was even more so as Harry caught his face before Anna followed him out and shut the door. Deciding to look around while they waited, Hermione let her curiosity get the better of her as she went to look at a book laying precariously on an end table's edge.
"Hermione, I don't think you should be touching anything." Harry said, wandering over as voices began to get louder outside. Words would often filter through to the teenagers as Hermione flipped carefully through the book.
"I'm just trying to get a feel for these people, Harry." Hermione muttered, stopping on a page to read it at the same time a sa door opened and then shut. "I can't help but feel a bit intimidated by this Dean person. And how did Anna know we're wizards?"
"The tent might have been a clue." Anna told them. Startled, both Harry and Hermione looked around and at the couple of Americans stood in the doorway, watching. Dean wasn't looking happy and scowling while Anna was smiling triumpantly like she'd just won an argument. "No normal tent has a full sized apartment stashed inside."
Dean huffed slightly and turned to go into the kitchen as Anna turned to watch him before she was looking back at Hermione. Going over, she laid a hand on the book and said, "I've told him you're not like the witches he's seen here. There's a difference between witches and the Wizarding world."
"There's more types?" Harry gasped, looking at her in shock as she nodded. He found it nearly impossible to process as she patted his shoulder and went in another direction, turning back to say, "Don't let Dean's temper tantrum deter you from either Winchester. He's understanding but dangerous when he's pissed off. It's the same as Sam and Bobby too."
"What about this stuff, Anna?" Hermione gestured to the book still open in her hand, "This isn't the normal stuff you see in an average house."
Anna just shrugged as if she didn't fully know before she left the room fully, leaving two Wizarding teenagers stood there, surrounded by supernatural lore and a man who was in the kitchen, cooking by the sizzling sounds.
I had a bit of trouble with this chapter. I wasn't sure if Dean was off character or not. I haven't watched Spn in quite some time so I do need to do a rewatch at some point. Please, please, please let me know if this is OOC for them all. I do try to keep them in character but it's not always possible.
And pairings! I already have one pairing sorted. It's my fave pairing in the Supernatural fandom, Anna Milton and Adam Milligan. That may happen at the end though. Let me know about any other pairings that'll go well.
Hermione Jean Burton
