"I can't believe this. I just fixed her up, too" Dean said as he hot wired his car after discovering that Gordon has stolen the keys to the Impala while Sam glared at him.
"What?" Dean snapped moodily.
"Are we not going to talk about the massive fight you and Kaylee just got into? I mean, Dean… she hit you. She has never once hit you out of anger, not even after you said those things when you discovered she was a werewolf…" Sam said making Dean hit the wheel annoyed.
"I know!" Dean shouted making Sam stop talking quickly.
"So, the bridge, is that all you got?" Dean asked firmly so Sam knew he didn't want to talk about Kaylee at the moment.
"The bridge was 4 and ½ minutes from their farm" Sam said as Dean started the car.
"How do you know?" Dean asked curiously.
"I counted. Took a left out of the farm, then turned right onto a dirt road, followed that for two minutes slightly uphill then took another quick right, and we hit the bridge" Sam explained simply.
"You're good. You're a monster pain in the ass... but you're good" Dean said impressed while Sam remained silent, thinking about the fact Kaylee was alive and thoroughly pissed off at Dean… rightfully so. They went to pull out of the carpark when a man stepped in front of the car making Dean slam on his breaks. They jumped out of the car with their guns pointed at the stranger.
"Who the hell are you?" Dean demanded and the man held his arms up showing he meant them no harm.
"I'm Kane. I believe we have a mutual friend" Kane introduced making Sam and Dean lower their weapons slightly.
"You saved Kaylee's life" Sam said and Kane looked over at Sam and nodded making Dean and Sam lower their weapons completely.
"We need to talk" Kane said making Dean scoff slightly.
"Not right now, Kaylee is about to go after a hunter and needs our help" Dean said going to walk back to the car but stopped when he heard Kane chuckling. Dean turned around and look at him confused.
"Trust me Kaylee doesn't need your help taking on one hunter" Kane said simply.
"He is one of the best…" Sam started to say but stopped when Kane looked at them confused.
"You really don't know how dangerous Kaylee is do you? That's not the point right now. You boys need to listen to me if you want to keep Kaylee in your life" Kane said seriously making Dean and Sam look at him worried.
"What are you talking about?" Sam asked worried while Dean remained silent.
"I'm talking about the fact that after Kaylee finishes with the hunter she is planning on leaving with me to continue our hunt for the Alpha. If she leaves with me without you boys telling her how much she means to you then you will never see her again" Kane promised sadly.
"What do you mean? She does know we care for her" Dean snapped making Kane raise an eyebrow and look at Dean with a 'are you serious?' look.
"Does she really? Think about it boys, she dropped everything to help you find your father and the demon that killed your mother and girlfriend. During that time; she been forced to reveal her true form to the two of you… which resulted in some harsh words, she got her first lead on the vampire that killed two members of her family which your Dad took away from her by killing him and yes he did it to save Sam and yes Kaylee would have done the same but it still cost her, and the biggest one was that she had a lead on the demon that kidnapped her, a lead that she has been searching for since she discovered her powers at age 16 and what happened? You boys refused to let her interrogate Meg and sent her back to hell. Yes, you didn't want her exposing herself in front of the other hunter but that's not your choice. It's her secret to reveal to whom she wants when she wants and did either of you apologize about it? Did either of you even think twice about what you cost Kaylee? Sam, you have been trying to keep your psychic powers secret since you discovered them but you would expose yourself and tell the world if it meant getting a lead on the yellow-eyed demon, yes?" Kane asked and Sam nodded guilty.
"So, you tell me, do you really think Kaylee knows that you two actually care and love her?" Kane asked while Dean and Sam looked down ashamed.
"She feels manipulated and used right now and that means she is stubborn and angry. So, if you boys don't want to lose her, you need to tell her how much she means to you both" Kane finished firmly.
"Why are you helping us?' Sam asked curiously.
"While I would love for Kaylee to be travelling with me again because I miss her, I also know that she has never been truly happy except when she was hunting and travelling with you. I love Kaylee and want her to be happy even if it means not travelling with her" Kane explained honestly.
"We will talk to her. We will" Sam promised and Kane nodded accepting this before going to leave.
"Wait a sec!" Dean called out making Kane turn around confused.
"What did you mean we don't know how dangerous Kaylee truly is?" Dean asked and Kane chuckled.
"Kaylee is a hunter, one of the best yes?" Kane asked and Sam and Dean nodded.
"So, that makes her dangerous already. But add in the fact she is a werewolf… a pureblood werewolf with demon blood running through her veins… she could be unstoppable if she wanted to be. But she chooses not to use her full potential especially around you two because she is scared that you will be intimidated or frightened off her. She holds back a lot and I guarantee that if she ever decided to just say 'fuck it' and dig deep within herself she would find that she has a lot more powers than the ones she had discovered already" Kane explained making Sam and Dean look at each other.
"Go to the nest, Kaylee will have Gordon dealt with already. I'll give you 1 hour to talk to Kaylee then I'm going to call her with my location so we can meet up somewhere" Kane explained before disappeared quickly leaving Sam and Dean alone in the carpark.
…
Dean and Sam arrived at the house to find Gordon tied up to a chair and Kaylee was leaning against the wall picking her nails with a knife.
"Dean! Kill her! She's a werewolf!" Gordon shouted at Dean as soon as he walked into the room. Kaylee looked over at Dean and raised an eyebrow at him, daring him to attack her.
"The vampire's get out okay?" Dean asked walking over to Kaylee.
"Yep." Kaylee said simply.
"Good" Dean said honestly.
"But not before I walked in on your pal here torturing Lenore but we soon took care of that, didn't we?" Kaylee mocked looking over at Gordon who was staring at Dean shocked.
"You know this evil creature?" Gordon demanded disgusted making Dean turn to him.
"Yeah, I'm going to need you to not call her that. You see Kaylee here is the furthest thing from evil. She's been there for me every time I've asked for her help and even a couple of times I've been too stubborn to ask for help. She has saved my ass more times than I can count and I've been taking her for granted for the past year and for that I'm very sorry" Dean said sincerely looking over at Kaylee who was staring at her knife.
"So am I. Kaylee is the closest thing I've ever had to a sister. She has given me advice when I needed, she has taught me so much this past year and I guess we just got used to her always being there for us that we were too selfish to see that we weren't there for her and that is something we will never forgive ourselves for" Sam added as Kaylee continued to twirl the knife around her fingers but her eyes stared tearing up.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Gordon asked confused making Kaylee roll her eyes and punch Gordon in the face.
"Can't you see we are having a moment" She snapped sarcastically at Gordon before turning to Sam and Dean.
"Continue" Kaylee said softly.
"And most importantly, she's the woman I love. I may not be very good at showing it sometimes but it's true I do love you Kaylee, more than anything in the world" Dean admitted while stepping closer to Kaylee and grabbing her hands.
"How can you love this… this thing? You should be killing her right now, not confessing your love for her. She is an evil, dangerous creature. You should have seen her when she walked through those doors; SHE IS EVIL" Gordon shouted before Dean growled annoyed and punched Gordon hard in the face knocking his chair over.
"Don't you dare talk about her like that" Dean said dangerously surprising both Sam and Kaylee before they walked out of the house.
"Sam" Dean said.
"Yeah" Sam asked.
"Clock me one" Dean said making Sam look at Kaylee confused.
"What?" Kaylee and Sam asked at the same time.
"Come on, I won't even hit you back. Let's go" Dean said seriously making Sam chuckle.
"Nah man, I think Kaylee hit you hard enough for the both of us" Sam joked making Kaylee chuckle as they walked over to the car.
"So, now what?" Dean asked Kaylee making her look at them sadly.
"Look, thank you for saying those things back there but… but I'm still going with Kane to hunt this Alpha" Kaylee explained regretfully. Sam and Dean looked at each other and nodded.
"Oh yeah, we know" Sam said simply.
"We are coming with you" Dean added.
"Say what now?" Kaylee asked shocked.
"Well, we don't have any leads on the yellow-eyed demon… and you have a lead on the Alpha Vampire. Besides we owe it to you to help with this after… everything" Dean explained making Kaylee stare at them speechless until her phone rang.
"Yeah?" She said picking it up.
"Kaylee. It's Kane" Kane said into the phone.
"Oh hey, where are you?" Kaylee asked pacing back and forth still in shock over what the brothers had just said to her.
"I'm two towns north of you but listen, the lead Lenore gave us was a dead end. The Alpha disappeared a few months ago, and I can't get a trace on him. I think I'm going to give this a rest for a few months, sis" Kane explained
"You're giving up?" Kaylee snapped angrily making Dean and Sam look at her concerned.
"No, not at all. It's just the pack are getting worried about me and…" Kane started to say making Kaylee sigh.
"Say no more. I forget that you are still close with the others and they would be missing you. It's okay bro. I understand. I'll call you if I get any leads" Kaylee said before hanging up and turning back to the brothers.
"Lead was a dead end… so it seems like I got nothing better to do other than ride around with you two chuckleheads" Kaylee joked as Sam went to get in the passenger seat.
"Oh and Dean… one more thing" She said before pulling him to her by his jacket and kissed him passionately making Sam smile but cringe slightly as well.
"I love you too" Kaylee whispered before showing him his keys that she took from Gordon.
"I'm driving" She said laughing as she snatched the keys out of Dean's reach when he tried to take them.
"You're lucky your sexy as hell" Dean muttered getting into the back seat with a grin on his face despite his effort to 'fake annoyance'.
