"So this is the place?"
"Yeah. Let's go." The trio exited the car and headed for the trunk. Each one takes out a taser. "So what do you have these charged for?" Sam asked.
"A hundred thousand volts." Dean answered as he slammed the trunk.
"Hey, fingers!" Rain yelled.
"Sorry."
"Don't you think this might be a little much?"
"Nope. I want this thing fried extra crispy."
"Hey. Can we get Kentucky Fried Chicken after this?" Both brother's look at her. "What? You made me hungry."
"Let's just go." The three made their way into the old abandoned house and down to the basement. Sam hears a noise, but before they go and investigate Dean has to tell them something. "We only get one shot with these things. You have to make it count."
"We already knew that man." Sam and Rain took positions on either side of a big cupboard.
"One...two...three." Dean counted and Sam and Rain pulled the doors open. Inside are two small and very scared children. "Is it still here?" They nodded as Rain grabs each of there hands.
"We're going to get you out of here." They began to make their way upstairs, but something grabbed Sam's ankle and caused him to tumble down the stairs. Dean fired his taser at the shadow and missed.
"You alright?" Dean asked Sam. He nodded. "You and Rain get those kids out of here."
"Take this." Sam tossed his taser to Dean and then made his way outside where Rain was waiting with the kids.
"Where's Dean?" She asked when she saw Dean wasn't with him.
"He stayed to kill it." Rain turned and started to run back to the house. "Where are you going?"
"To help. What if something happens? What if that thing kills..." Rain stopped and fell to her knees. "Ahhahahhaha!"
"Rain! What's wrong?" She looked up at Sam and pushed him aside. She flew back into the house and pretty much dove down the basement steps. She landed to see the thing they were hunting dead and Dean laying in the corner.
"DEAN!" She ran to his side. She starts to shake him to wake him up. "Dean, come on man. Wake up." She held her brother and realized how he felt every time something this bad happened to her. She didn't even try to hide her tears when she saw Sam standing there. "We have to get him to the hospital Sam."
"We have to hurry." They both picked him up and took him to the car. Rain cradled him in her lap as Sam drove as fast as he could. The two children were sitting in the front seat. When they got to the hospital, they called the police to get the kids as the doctors checked on Dean. It seemed Rain was in shock. She just sat on the floor leaning against the wall. Sam handled everything with the police and was finished by the time the doctor came to speak with them. Rain was on her feet and in his face the moment she saw him.
"Is he alright?" She asked with tears in her eyes. Sam joined her.
"He's resting. The electrocution triggered a heart attack. Pretty massive, I'm agraid his heart--it's damaged."
"Damaged? He's going to be ok isn't he?" Rain asked even thought she knew the answer. She felt it. She knew exactly what the doctor was saying.
"We've done all we can. We can try and keep him comfortable at this point. But, I'd give him a couple weeks, at most, maybe a month."
"No. There's gotta be something you can do, some kind of treatment that can save him." Sam said as he held Rain against him. She hasn't looked or felt so great since Dean was electracuted. It looked, to Sam, that she's the one that had been electracuted.
"I'm sorry, but we can't work miracles." Sam nods and helps Rain to Dean's room.
"Have you ever watched daytime TV? It's terrible." Dean said as he flicked throught the stations. Sam stood be his bed, but Rain stayed far away on the other side of the room. She didn't even face her brother when they entered.
"We spoke to your doctor."
"That fabric softner teddy bear, I'm gonna hunt that little bitch down."
"Dean."
"I know. So it looks like you two are going to leave town without me. Hey Sam, where's Rain?" Sam pointed to where Rain was sitting. "Rain, you alright?" She just nodded, never facing him.
"We're not just going to leave you here." Sam started, but was cut off.
"You better take car of that car ot I sware I'll haunt your assed."
"That's not funny."
"Oh come on, it's a little funny." That's the point where Rain decided it was good to leave the room. Without saying a word she got up and left. Dean and Sam followed her with there eyes as she softly closed the door. "Is she ok? She looks a little pale."
"Something's wrong here man. She's acting like she's the one dying. Now about you. We still have options."
"What options? Yeah, burial or cremation. Look I know it's not easy. But I'm gonna die, and you can't stop it."
"Watch me. I'm gonna go find her and we'll be back later." Dean nodded as Sam left the room. Rain was in the parking lot, leaning against the impala. She lifted her head slightly when she heard someone walking in her direction. "You alright?"
"He's not going to die Sam." Sam nodded in agreement as they got into the car. "Sorry I left. I just couldn't.." She started crying as Sam drove back to the motel.
"I'm sure he understands that. You sure your feeling ok? You don't look so hot."
"I'm fine. Let's just find out how to help him now." They started doing reasurch the second they got beck to the motel. Rain was looking up shit on the computer while Sam tried to contact John. All he got was his voicemail. He explained what happened and then hung up.
"Find anything yet?" Sam looked to where Rain was sitting and saw she had fallen asleep. Sam smiled and heard a knock at the door. He got up and answered. There, looking like death himself, was Dean. "What the hell are you doing here?"
"Checked myself out."
"Are you crazy?" Sam asked as he helped his brother inside.
"I'm not going to die in a place where the nurses aren't even hot."
"You know this whole I-laugh-in-the-face-of-death thing? It's crap and I can see right through it."
"Whatever dude. How long has she been out? And when was the last time you slept? Damn man you look worse than me."
"I've been scouring the internet for the last three days for a way to help you. She fell asleep a little while ago. I told you somethings wrong with this."
"What are you talking about?" Dean asked as he sat on the bed next to Rain. She moved slightly, but enough so that Dean could see her face. Sam was right. She looked just like him. (You know what I mean) "Wait. Do you mean she's dying too?"
"That's what I'm saying. Remember the time back at out old house? How you felt what she felt? Well I think it's happening again, except this time to the extreme. If we can't find a way to help you, not only will you dir, but she will too."
"So what have you found so far?" Dean asked not taking his eyes off Rain. She looked even worse that he did.
"One of dad's friends, Joshua, called me back. He told me about a guy in Nebraska. A specialist."
"So what are we waiting for? Rain. Time to get up." Rain moves just a little and opens her eyes. "Morning Raindrop." Dean said with a smile.
"What are you doing here?" She asked as she shot up in bed. She looked around and saw Sam packing. "We going somewhere?"
"Nebraska. Come on."
"You should be in the hospital, not traveling." The concern her voice was filled with was amazing.
"I'm glad you care so much, but if this helps me, it helps you too."
"So you know then?" Sam turned to look at the two on the bed. He never mentioned what he thought to her.
"You know?"
"Of course I know. Let's just go." They left with Sam having to help both his siblings to the car. Sam drove to Nebraska and parked in a field in front of a big tent. "The Church of Roy LeGrange. Faith Healer. Witness The Miracle." Are you kidding Sam?"
"What?" Sam got out and ran to help Dean. Rain looked a little better and was able to walk on her own.
"It's a faith healer. These things are scams. No one can heal like this."
"After all the bad shit we deal with every day, you honestly think that there's not good in this world too?"
"Maybe, but at least the evil stuff I know is there. I can see it, feel it."
"Maybe you just need to believe a little." The three siblings turned to a blonde haired girl.
"And you would be?" Rain asked sounding a little but rude. "Sorry. That came out sounding a little rude didn't it?"
"Yes." Sam said.
"It's ok. My names Layla Rourke. Is this your first visit here?"
"Yes it is." Dean said. Rain rolled her eyes.
"Stop that!" Rain screamed at Dean. Sam and Layla look at her. "Sorry again." Rain gave a very evil eye to Dean. 'You are a sick man you know that?'
'I know. I'm dying remember.'
'That's not what I ment and you know it.' "Can we just go in now?"
"I'll see you inside." Layla said before going inside the tent.
"And that was about what?" Sam asked.
"Dean's perverted mind that's all. Let's just go." The three entered the tent and found some seat up front. "Why do we have to sit here? The back is perfectly fine by me."
"We have a better chance here." Sam explained as he pulled her coat to get her to sit. She glared at him. "What? You were just going to stand the whole time?" Rain was about to shoot a nice comeback his way, but the mass thing was starting. A blind man began talking about how there's not alot of good stuff happening in this world noadays.
"It's god that does the healing here friends, not me. He just help me by letting me see into your hearts." Roy said to the crowded room.
"Either that or there wallets." Dean tried to whisper to Rain, but Roy hears him.
"You think so, young man?" Dean is cought off guard and feels a little embaressed. What made it worse os that even Rain was giggling at him.
'It's not funny Rain.' Rain still laughs a little. "Sorry."
"No don't be. Just watch what you say around a blind man, we've got really sharp ears. What's your name son?"
"Dean."
"Well Dean. Come on up here."
"No that's ok." Rain and Sam look at him.
"What are you doing? This is what we came here for." Sam pleads. Rain just looks down and holds her chest. "You alright?"
"My chest hurts." She says as she closes her eyes tight. "It's so bad man." Once Dean saw the tears running down her face, he quickly got up on stage to be healed.
"What was that about?" Roy asked with a hint of concern.
"Nothing. Can you do this or not?"
"Sure son. Just hang on." Roy placed his hands on Dean head and Dean went to his knees. Sam looked on very nervious as he held a crying Rain. A few minutes later, Dean fell over onto the floor and Rain was gasping for air.
"Rain what's wrong?" Sam asked shaking her. All the people in the crowd were lost as to what was going on with these three. Dean's eyes shot open soon and he too was gasping for air. Sam was torn between going to Dean or staying with Rain.
"Go help Dean." Sam looked at Rain. "I'm fine. Go help him." Sam got up and went to the stage where Dean had fallen.
"You alright man?"
"Just help me up will ya." Sam helped his brother to his feet. "How's Rain?" Sam glanced down as to where Rain was sitting. She had her head in her hands.
"She looks fine. How do you feel?"
"Never better."
"We should get you checked out." The trio leaves and goes to the nearest doctor's office. The doctor ran some test's on his heart and sure enough, he was better.
"Well, according to all your tests, there's nothing wrong with your heart. No sign there ever was. Not that a man your age should be having heart trouble, but, still it's strange it does happen." The doctor tells the brothers. Rain was waiting in the motel room.
"What do you mean?" Dean asked her.
"Well just yesterday, a young guy like you, twenty-seven, athletic. Out of nowhere, heart attack."
"Thanks, doc." Dam shakes her hand and she leaves. Dean looks over at Sam.
"Well that's odd."
"Maybe it's a coincidence. I mean people's hearts give out all the time." SAm suggested as the left to go back to the motel.
"No they don't Sam."
"Look, Dean do we really need to dwell on this one. Can't we just be grateful that he saved your life and move on? And not just your life, but Rain's to."
"I just can't shake this feeling man."
"What feeling?"
"After I was healed, I saw someone. I'm telling you man it was a spirit."
"Well if there was something there don't you think I would have seen it? Or Rain?"
"Excuse me Sam, but I know what I saw and I know it was a spirit." Dean said as they pulled infront of their room. The two walked into the room to find Rain, yet again, sleeping. "She's been doing that alot hasn't she?"
"She's just warn out." Sam turned on his laptop. "So what did this thing look like?"
"Like a man. Dressed in a suit." Dean layed down next to Rain. "I want you to check out this heart attack guy tomorrow. I'll go see Roy."
"What about her?"
"She can do the reasurch on whatever we find out." The next morning Rain woke up early, being she slept the entire day. She decided to go and yet again get them coffee and some breakfast that didn't come out of a pizza box. She drove to the nearest store and looked around for something that she knew all of them would like. 'Damn you Dean for likeing the crap you do.' She wondered the store untill she got what she needed. As she waited in line, there was a little girl, no more than five, standing next to her. Rain looked around and spotted the girls mother not to far away. Just as it was Rain's turn to pay, two men with guns came bursting into the store. Out of instinct Rain pulled the little girl behind her, making sure she was out of sight. The men demanded the money and as the dumb-ass cashier was getting it however, he pushed the alarm.
"You son of a bitch!" One of the men screamed. The little girl behind Rain started to cry and that pissed one of the men off more.
"Shut that little bitch up!" Rain picked up the girl and tried to quiet her, but she just wouldn't stop. She could see her mother looking on full of concern. "Shut her up or I will!" Rain tried, but she was just to scared. "DAMN IT! Give me her!" The man reached for the child, but Rain was fighting him.
"Leave her alone! She's just scared!" Rain screamed as faught them. It wasn't easy. She refused to let the girl go. "LEAVE HER ALONE!" 'Dean! Need help here!'
'Rain? Where are you?'
'Store down the street. It's being held up.'
'Well be right there. Just don't do anything stupid ok.'
"Your not going to hand her over are you?" The man asked her.
"Not to you!"
"Fine then." The other man came behind her and hit Rain with his gun. Even then, she wouldn't let go of the scared child. The man (Brian) pulled the screaming child from Rain's arms.
"Leave her alone!" Brian started beating Rain untill she was laying on the floor, clinging to consciousness with all she had.
"You don't even know this child, but now you have to watch her die!"
"Please!" Rain begged. She looked up and saw the girls mother. "Don't!" Rain's begging was falling on deaf ears. The other man (Steve) pulled his gun and fired at the little girl. Rain tried her damdest to get to her, but Brian was holding her down. Rain came face to face with the lifeless child just as the police showed. Both men ran out of the back door and the mother ran to her daughter. Rain just put her head down in the pool of her blood and gave up. The next thing she remembered was sitting in the back of the ambulance. The paramedics were talking to her, but she didn't care. She was lost in her own head. She failed the girl. She was weak and she finally realized that.
"Rain!" She didn't even raise her head when Dean called her name. Sam touched her shoulder and still nothing. "Rain are you ok?"
"Who are you?" One of the other paramedics asked the brothers.
"She's our sister. Is she alright?"
"She's in shock."
"I failed her because I'm weak." Dean and Sam turned to Rain. "Why the hell do I have to be so weak? When I was with him I was strong. Now look at me. I'm nothing."
"Rain this isn't your fault. What happened is not because of you and you know that." Rain looked up at Sam.
"Your wrong. If I still had my powers, that little girl would still be alive and those two men would be dead, but no. I have to be this weak little girl. I'm useless." She was hysterical and when Dean tried to comfort her she just pushed him away. "No! Why did you have to find me? Why couldn't you have just let me go?"
"Just leave you where you were? Not going to happen."
"And what about you." She said as she pointed to Sam. "Look what I did to Jessica. You should of killed me when you had the chance." Sam was torn from being concerend or pissed. "I should be dead! I'm no good to anyone anymore."
"Your good for us and you know that." Dean was trying to calm her, but the paramedic's choose that time to bring out the body bag with the little girl inside.
"No good for anyone. Look what I couldn't do." She pointed to the body. "I couldn't even save her. How the hell am I going to save someone else?"
"Rain."
"Just leave me alone." She got up and started walking, her brother's right on her ass.
"Where are you going?"
"Away."
"Where?"
"Away."
"I don't think so." Dean grabbed her arm to stop her. "Your not going anywhere. We have to talk about this."
"About what? You even said before that I'm just a normal girl now since I wasn't trained like you and Sam. I'm no good to you and what happened here tonight proves that. I just can't do it anymore Dean. I can't be weak and helpless." Rain took a few more steps and fell to her knees. Dean and Sam did all they could to comfort her. They managed to get her back to the motel and asleep in bed.
"What now? We still have to figure this whole thing out." Sam said. "Before all this happend though, I did figure out what we're dealing with here. How you were cured and all."
"What?"
"A reaper. Someones controlling it."
"A reaper? How the hell did you figure that out?" Dean asked as he sat next to Rain's sleeping form.
"Not important. What is important is that we find out how to stop it."
"We have to find out who's controlling it first."
"I know and I have a good idea who." Dean looked at him to continue. "Roy. I was speaking to his wife and it turns out that he had cancer. The doctor told them that he had maybe a month and then out of nowhere the cancer was gone. The only thing that suggests that he had it was the loss of his eye sight."
"I don't think it's Roy."
"Why not?"
"He looked like he believed he was working a miracle. Like it really was god that was doing the healing."
"So who then? If not Roy."
"I think I might know. I'll go check on it tomorrow while you stay with her. After we finish this one, we're going back home." Sam looked at his older brother with a look of confusion. "We'll take her somewhere where she can just sit and relax. Maybe then she will realize just how stong she is and how much she's needed here."
"And taking her home is going to help her find that out how?"
"You'll see. Now just get some sleep." The next morning Dean got up and woke Sam before he left. "Make sure you keep an eye on her."
"I will." Dean left and went to talk to Roy or should I say Sue Ann. He figured that it was her that was controlling this reaper and now all he had to do was find out how. No one was home at the Legrange house so Dean let himself in. He made his way to the basement.
"Why is it always the basement?" He asked himself as he found a rather large alter. "Bingo."
"I gave you life and I can take it away just as fast." Dean turned to see Sue Ann standing there.
"So what? You just thought you would take it upon yourself to heal these people knowing full well other's die in the process."
"They deserved it. What so you care? Your still alive."
"But at what cost? Some guy dies because of me."
"And?"
"Your insane." Dean smirked as he flipped over her alter. She didn't even budge. 'There has to be something else. But what?'
'Her necklace.'
'Rain?'
'Sam said to destroy the necklace.' Dean ran at Sue Ann and pulled off her necklace and smashed it on the ground.
"What have you done?"
"He's not your god." The reaper appeared infront of Sue Ann and placed it's hand on her head. Dean watched as her body became pale and she fell to the floor, dead. He left and went back to the motel.
"Is it over?" Sam asked as soon as he entered the room.
"Down boy! Yea it's over. How's she doing?"
"Not so good man. I think she finally snapped for good this time."
"She was well enough to pass your message along to me." Sam looked at Dean as he sat neck to a mumbling Rain.
"What message?"
"The one about the necklace. That I needed to break it to get rid of the reaper."
"I never said that." Dean looked just as lost as Sam.
"So if it wasn't you, who was it?"
"I don't know and honestly don't care. Right now we have to help her." Sam sat on the same bed as his family. So now how is going home going to help?"
"Pack up. I'll explain on the way." Dean got up and went to the other side of the bed so that he was face to face with Rain. "We're leaving. We're going to help you get through this." She didn't even lift her head. Dean signed as they left the motel and started the long drive back to Kansas. 'This has to work.'
A/N I know this chapter kinda sucks and I don't care. I kinda like it and I wanted to do something where Rain has a breakdown feeling all weak and stuff. REVIEW!
