Blondie 20000: Tnx for the review. Both of them kick ass. There is a hint in this chaper about Nick. If you spot it, can you figure out what it means?

"Why? Why would you do that?" Nick was on his knees. Furry and sorrow flew over his face.

"You've gone too far, Nick." Sam says.

"Too far?! How far would you go? How far did you go?" Nick looks at him with despise.

Cass stood aside, listening to the conversation. Sam frowns and puts his head down. He sighs "Nick, you've killed innocent people. People who did nothing wrong but get possessed by demons. Lucifer's demons."

Nick flinches at the sound of Lucifer's name, but continues to argue anyway. "Innocent? They weren't innocent. Do you know what being possessed by a demon does to a person? Ough... Of course you do, you're a Winchester! – he says with sarcasm in his voice as he gets back up – You've seen it all. But let me tell you, for people like me, like them, it is not as easy."

Sam was getting really pissed "Easy? You think it was easy for me? I..." He goes to say something but stops. Yelling at Nick won't get him results. He calms himself down and continues "Nick, those people you killed, they had families. They had loved ones. Just like you..."

Nick was a bit taken by what Sam just said. His eyes start watering up again as he ponders about what he has done. He breaks down again screaming. Cass has seen enough. Sam nods to Cass seeing what he is about to do. Cass goes over to Nick and puts his fingers on his forehead. Nick starts to wobble, feeling dizzy. He smiles at Cass and says "I guess I'm the assbutt now?" and he faints.

Jack and Harper were outside her apartment building. She stops heavily breathing. "What's going on? Why did we run away? Can't we just wait for a second?"

"No, we have to keep moving." Jack says as he takes her hand and they both run to the library a block over. They stop in front of it as Harper takes out her keys. She starts going through them nervously, but Jack opens the unlocked door for her. She smiles at him for a second and then they both rush in. Jack locks the door from inside and they hide behind the counter.

A few minutes later they see zombie Vance going pass the door. Harper gets startled by it and Jack says "Don't worry, I locked it."

"Did you flip the switch under the lock?"

"Swich? What switch?"

"Don't worry, I got it." She says slowly moving toward the door, bending down.

"No, Harper, don't..." but she does anyway.

As she comes to the doors Vance stood in front. She gazes in his white eyes for a moment and opens the door. Jack stood up feeling confused. "Harper?"

Harper and Vance didn't take eyes of one another. He leans over and kisses her. "What... What are you doing?" Jack asks baffled.

Harper turns to Jack and bites her lip. She kinda liked Jack, he was sweet and not pushy like the others. But still she says "Vance is my boyfriend."

"But he is dead. And he is stalking you."

"No, he is stalking you. He just gets a bit jealous sometimes." Vance looks over at Jack and charges him. But Jack was faster and gets away. So now, they were playing hide and seek in the library.

Harper shouts out "I am really sorry about this, Jack. I really liked you. But you're obviously a hunter and I come from a long line of necromancers. "

Jack hides out behind the wall, right next to the counter and Harper. He pulls out a silver knife. And then he sees Mary. She stealthily approaches him, showing him to put the knife away. She whispers "Doesn't really work on these things."

"Then a head shot?"

"No. To put down a zombie you have to get them back to their grave and drive a silver stake through the heart."

A moment later Jack shouts out "Harper, why are you doing this? I thought we fell in love at first sight."

"What?" she says unsure of her own feelings.

"I am not weak like the other guys. I'm not afraid to really love you. "

He steps in front of her "What would it be like to be with someone alive? Who could walk you down the aisle in front of the entire town?" She looks at him, believing in his words. Mixed feelings of fear, sorrow and embarrassment go over her face as she bites her lip. "But I... I tried to kill you."

He smiles at her "Every relationship has its problems, right? We could stay in the town you love and never leave."

Vance charges at him shouting "She's mine!" and throws Jack at a book shelf. Harper screams "NO!" Vance looks at her, but then gets shot in the back by Mary. Mary recharges her shotgun and fires again. But it didn't do much. He shoves the shotgun out of Mary's hands and picks her up as if she was lighter than air. Harper shouts at him "Vince! Stop!"

He looks at her with anger on his face. He drops Mary and charges at Harper. Jack gets up just in time to stop him. He yells "NO!" and a thin wave explodes from his hand, sending pieces of Vance all over the place. Harper stood there amazed, gazing into Jack's eyes as he faints. Mary gets up, just to see her gone, and she goes over to Jack. She sighs as she realizes he's ok, just unconscious.

Jack wakes up in the car. Mary was driving. "Good, you're awake."

"What happened?" Jack asks rubbing his eyes and squinting.

"You killed Vance. Harper took off."

Jack sighs thinking it might be for the best. He doesn't think he would be able to kill her, nor to harm her. He got emotionally involved.

Mary knew what he was thinking "I saw that kiss, you know."

Jack blushes a bit, but says nothing. Mary smiles at him "It's ok. It happens."

"Mary? When we kissed, I felt something, something I never felt before."

"The butterflies?"

"The what?"

"People tend to describe it as butterflies in the stomach. The feeling of being in love."

"No, I don't think that's it. This was different." He looks down.

"Ough." Mary says understanding what he thought "You felt aroused?"

Jack keep staring at her, not knowing what that means. Mary sighs as she starts explaining how sex works to a two year old nephilim.
