That's A Real Life Bronze Age Priestess Sammy
Chapter 15
Despite the meta fuelled catastrophe they had to live through in the afternoon, this wasn't their type of case. Sam really wanted to wash off this day and that school off of him. Soon after getting in the car, the three of them headed straight towards the local bar to grab a bite, which was right next to their motel. Not to mention Dean and him had a lot to discuss. That play, Muwatti enjoying herself a little too much over that play, still not having any idea about how to get rid of the Mark or how it ended up freeing her from the tablet, the possibility of the Knights catching up with them, those fucking books still being a thing and refusing to die, them still not having any idea what binds her curse and the Mark together.
"Will we be really leaving in the morning?" Muwatti asked them, while chewing on her fries. Sam noticed that's basically all she ever eats. Apparently she really likes anything and everything potato. But really detest tomatoes. Now that he thought about it, is she really okay eating all of these modern food containing so much preservatives and god knows what else? Should he have her switch to organic? More importantly can he even mention that word in Dean's presence? "Ms. Chandler is still missing, isn't she?"
"It's not really our type of case." He said, finishing off his salad."Sometimes people simply just go missing with no good reason, you know."
Dean, who as always had ordered a burger, started to choke on his food. At the same time, he heard Muwatti mutter something like, still do not see the sweet and sensitive. His brother, after calming down and swallowing, turned towards him and calmly said, "She most certainly knows that people go missing with no good reason, Sammy. In fact she knows that better than anyone."
Fucking hell.
He did it again.
Why? Just fucking why?
"Anyways." Dean interrupted his brother's thoughts of self-loathing. "This may have turned out to be a dud, we still have a case. Yours." He said while dramatically pointing towards Muwatti.
"If I'm a case for the Winchesters, does this mean I'm a part of the Supernatural tale now? I wonder what the title of the book would be."
"Yeah, it will called 'The Case of the Crazy Tablet Lady'" Dean snarked.
"I've said this before, I'm not crazy." responded as indignant Muwatti. "So fuck you, you fucking piece of fuckiest fuck."
Sam wasn't sure how to react to that. Even now both of them were intensely staring at each other. All he could do was sit there in silence and stare at them, fully expecting for the situation to escalate and fists to be thrown. However his worries were for nothing. Both Dean and Muwatti just started laughing. Why are they so perfectly matched?
"That was one of the first things she ever said to me." Dean clarified to him, when he saw the baffled look clearly etched on his younger brother's face.
Sam asked her, where she even learn to say something like that. "From Bedřich. He really loved to swear while translating. Especially in English." She answered with a smile, upon remembering the long dead historian. She really did seem to like him, he pointed to her, and she concurred.
"Anyways," interrupted Dean, "Crowley had mentioned that together these three, Zagan, Uvall and Ronove, control almost eight million demons." His brother pointed out. "Why aren't we under constant demon attacks? What are they waiting for?"
"Because they don't want to do that." said Sam. "Just imagine what would happen if millions of demons started scouring the whole country looking for just one woman?"
"Dyewara. I mean, the angels." marvelled Muwatti. "The Knights are worried about the angels knowing about me."
"Does that mean that the only thing currently keeping the Knights away is that they're scared of the winged dick brigade finding out." Dean asked rhetorically. "Just fucking great." He had to step out, as his phone started to ring. From his brother's loose shoulders and relaxed walk, Sam knew that it wasn't much to worry about. Probably not the Knights checking in twice in one day.
"Between the angels and the Knights, I know which one I'll pick." He heard Muwatti and asked her what she meant, "The angels, obviously. I'm not sure what those demons are planning for me, but I'm assuming it won't be good. From what Castiel has told us, at least the angels will just kill me outright."
"Are you really okay with dying?"
"I should've died thousands of years ago, just like my brothers and the rest of my family. I'm not even supposed to be here." She paused to take a deep breathe before continuing. "And honestly there are worse things than dying."
"Yeah, you don't have to tell me that." He said while laughing and she joined in as well.
"Oh yes, the girls, Siobhan and Maggie, gave me a condensed version of your lives. And what I want to know, are all hunters this chaotic or is it simply Winchester thing?"
"And deciding to raise lions at the age of ten is less chaotic? Or is it simply a princess thing?"
"Have you memorised everything that has been written about me?" She paused to shake her head, but she seemed amused with him. "Just so you know, lions and doves are considered to be the animal companions for Ishtar. And the ten year old me decided to raise lions at the temple complex, because saying 'I raise doves' didn't sound quite badass enough." Sam could see his brother enter the bar once more, from the corner of his eyes. "Not to mention, the lions were very useful whenever I needed to dispose of a corpse."
"What?" Sam asked.
"What?" Muwatti replied.
He wanted her to elaborate, how could he not after hearing that. However as soon as Dean approached their table he told them they had to go back to the school. Someone else had disappeared right outside the auditorium. The girl who had been playing him.
"Maggie has disappeared? How? Neither of you found anything dangerous."
Looks like they did miss something.
There's a prequel to this story as well, called 'When Dean Met The Crazy Tablet', that's about Muwatti's initial days outside the tablet. It will be multi-parter, and both stories will be updated regularly, with this one being the long novel length. Please do check it out.
