CHAPTER 12

Bursting through the front door, Sam and Dean quickly begin to search the first floor of the house for Kate.

"Kate? Kate?" Dean shouts as Sam runs for the kitchen and then follows Dean who is racing upstairs.

"KATE!" Sam and Dean continue to shout as they kick open Billy's bedroom door and then Baileys where they discover Kate lying motionless on the floor.

Running over to Kate's side and turning her on to her back, Dean notices a trickle of blood running down the side of her head.

"Kate?"

Sam looks around the nursery while Dean continues to try and rouse Kate.

"There's sulphur on this window ledge. Another demon was here."

"Where's the salt?"

"It isn't salted…neither is this one."

"Kate? Kate?"

Slowly opening her eyes Kate looks at Dean and then jumps up wrapping her arms around his neck.

"DEAN!"

"It's ok we're here now."

Dean inspects the cut on Kate's head as she sits herself back against the wall.

"What happened?"

Kate pauses for a moment as she tries to remember.

"Oh my god." Kate says standing up and flinging back the duvet in Baileys crib. "Bailey, he took Bailey."

"Who? Who took him? Was it your neighbour again?" Sam asks as Dean quickly grabs hold of Kate who begins to sway while holding on to her head.

"No, it was…..it was Billy. He came up behind me……I turned around and his….his eyes were black." Dean sits Kate down in the rocking chair.

"A Demon must have targeted Billy when he left the Motel yesterday. GOD DAM IT the demon that's after Bailey has been here the whole time and we never knew it." Says Sam as he runs his hands through his messy brown hair.

"Where are they Dean? You promised everything would be ok." Kate says as she stands up begins to scream at Dean while pounding her fists against his chest. "You said you would help me" Dean takes hold of Kate's wrists and holds them until she eventually calms down and falls against him as he then wraps his arms around her tightly.

Looking over at his brother Dean begins to fear the worst.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Grabbing a loaded shot gun each and an extra hand gun, Dean and Sam shut the trunk and head for the front of the car.

"How can we even be sure that the demon is going to be at the Dock?" Asks Sam as he opens the passenger door and gets in.

"We don't, but right now we have nothing else to go on but what that last Demon told us. What the hell?" Dean says as he turns around to find a bandaged up Kate sitting in the back seat.

"No way, you're not coming Kate."

"Yes I am."

"No you're not."

"Kate we're not messing around here. This is dangerous you could get hurt?" Sam says trying to calm down the situation.

"What have I too lose Sam? My two younger brothers are missing and for all I know they could already be dead. I'm coming with you. Now are we leaving or are we going to sit here and waste even more time?"

Knowing he cannot afford to waste any more time, Dean starts up the car and heads off towards the direction of the docks.
