Several minutes after Jo talked to Rachel things got awkward. She was pretty sure Dean had explained her...condition to the mother and daughter and poor Ellen tried to be covert with her uneasiness but Jo on the other hand did nothing to hide her curiosity. The blonde poked and prodded at Rachel, trying to get a reaction out of her but since Rachel knew what Jo was trying to do Rachel just ignored her. Eventually Jo got tired of messing with Rachel and she left. As she walked away Rachel reached into her leather jacket and pulled out a picture of Glee club. Rachel traced her thumb over Quinn. She sighed sadly. Rachel only regret was not telling Quinn how she felt. "Who is she?" Jo asked as she set a beer down on the table in front of her. Rachel sighed. Just when she thought she had got rid of Jo she showed up again. Jo cracked open her beer and sat down next to Rachel with an eyebrow raised.

Rachel put the photo down, cracked the beer open and immediately took a long swig. She tried to think of a way to answer that question. Who was Quinn? The cruel heartless cheerleader that did anything to stay at the top or the sweet kinda awkward girl she met in the hall way? "I don't know," she replied.

Jo raised both eyebrows instead of one. "You don't know yet you have a picture of her. Are you some kind of freaky obsessive stalker? Because if you are I am totally going to have to rethink you being cute," she joked. Rachel chuckled. "I am not a freaky obsessive stalker you just asked a really complicated question," Rachel said. Jo whistled. "Wow you really over think stuff. I just wanted to know her name," she said.

Rachel ran a hand over her face. "Sorry I..." Jo smiled softly. "It's ok. I understand," she said.

After a few moments of awkward silence Rachel spoke. "Quinn. Her name is Quinn," Rachel whispered.

Two Months Later

"Here." Ellen looked up at Rachel and then down at the wad of cash and frowned. Ellen tried to speak but Rachel interrupted. "No just listen. I know that you don't trust me because of what I am. Do think I asked to become this? Do you think I wanted this? I hate my self for what I am. But do you want to know what hurts more? What hurts more is that a complete stranger won't give me a chance to prove that I am different. That I am NOT one of those things. You gave Ruby a chance but yet I don't get a chance? You know what? It doesn't matter. This is half of what I earned here. Tomorrow I am packing my bags and leaving because I refuse to be treated like this. Goodnight."

Rachel turned and almost ran right into Jo. Jo grinned and opened her mouth to speak but before she could say anything Rachel brushed past her and out the front door. Rachel went around the back to the small shack she had rebuilt. The deal (which Dean failed to mention to her) was if Rachel was to stay with the Harvelles she had to rebuild the the shack. And so she did and now that was her home. Rachel unlocked the front door and then immediately threw her self onto her bed. She had a shitty day. This particual group of three hunters where extra pervy and it got ugly. Lucky for her most of the hunters that came to the Road House like her and treated her with respect, so when Rachel told the hunters to back off and they still percisted most of the others threatened them. Everything ended up fine except for the fact she had a hard time reining in the demon side of her that wanted to go after them and rip their throats out.

Rachel rolled onto her back closed her eyes. It was getting harder for her to control the demon. It was constantly pounding, demanding to be let out. But what was really weird was since the demon had been more active the nightmares and the pain that followed had stopped. Rachel's train of thought was stopped when she heard arguing. One perk of being part demon was that all of her senses where advanced. She could have all of her senses be normal if she wanted them to be or they could be enhanced. Rachel increased her hearing slightly. She heard a door slam and then foot steps approaching her shed. Rachel reduced her hearing and waited. Several seconds later her front door opened and then a warm body draped its self over her side.

Jo wrapped an arm around Rachel's waist and sighed. "I am sorry about my mom. Its just that..." she tailed off. Jo looked up at Rachel. Rachel kissed her and wrapped both arms around Jo. "I know its ok," she said.

"No its not. She has no right to treat you the way she does. I promise you she will be better about it just give her a second chance. Please," Jo said. Rachel nodded wordlessly and tightened her hold her hold on Jo.

Three Months Later

"Rachel! Get your ass up and out of that bed and come give me a hug."

Rachel made an undecipherable noise and put a spare pillow over her head. Ruby frowned. She did NOT like being ignored. "Ok so thats how its going to be," she whispered. Rachel sighed happily as she started to drift back to sleep. Suddenly the pillow was ripped from her head along with her blankets. Rachel groaned. "Rubbbbbyyyyyy just leave me alone for five more minutes pleeaaasseee," she whined.

"No get your ass up. Its noon anyways why arent up already?" Ruby asked. Rachel ignored her and rolled onto her back. Rachel blinked several times trying to get her eyes to adjust to the sun light. Suddenly she frowned. "Ruby how the hell did you get in here?" She asked.

Ruby smirked. "I dont know. You better hurry up Ellen made some food and if you dont hurry the others are going to inhale it and you wont get any," she said. Rachel just grunted and closed her eyes. As Ruby walked to the Road House, Rachel opened her eyes. "Ruby!" Rachel exclaimed. The loose board on the far side of the shed was missing. Rachel's response was a faint cackle. Several minutes later Rachel walked into the Road House and caught the end of a conversation.

"Ellen you can not let Rachel find out...If she does it wont be good," Dean said. Jo looked at him like he was crazy. "Are you serious right now? She has a right to know!" Jo exclaimed. Ruby nodded. "I agree. If we don't tell her, her reaction will be worse," she said.

Rachel walked around the corner with a heavy frown on her face. "Whats going on?" She asked. Jo took something out of Dean hands and gave it to Rachel. It was a newspaper. Rachel quickly scanned the front and then let out a snarl. She dropped the paper and began moving towards the door. "Rachel wait!" Sam said. Rachel spun around. "No don't you tell me to wait. Someone I know was murdered and I know its because of me. I am going back to Lima and there is absolutely nothing any of you can do about it," she said. Jo shrugged. "Ok but Mom and I are going too. Whether you like it or not we are all family now so your stuck with us," she said.

As Rachel looked at the people she had grown to love she knew that no matter what life threw at them everything was going to be ok.

Next chapter back to Lima :D
