Under Your Skin

Chapter 11

May 1, 2007

Dean glared down at Lexi anger coloring his cheeks. She was as stubborn as he was and at the moment he was ready to throttle her. "Just do what you're told for once and stay put."

"Do what I'm told?" she shrieked, "Are you kidding me, Dean? I am not staying out here while you and Sam go in there."

"You're not a hunter, Lex!"

"I'm not defenseless either!"

"Hey," Sam stated cautiously getting in between them, "Lexi, stay here, okay. You can read his thoughts so if we get in trouble, then yeah come help. Just stay here, okay?"

"Fine." She hissed still glaring at Dean as he gave her his 'I'm going to kill you' look.

Morning of May 2, 2007

Dean sighed pinching the bridge of his nose as he paced the length of the dingy motel room. He couldn't believe what Sam was saying, he didn't want to believe it. "Oh, come on Sammy you're being ridiculous."

"Am I Dean?" Sam asked raising his eyebrows and gesturing with his arms.

"YES!"

"You just don't want to see it because you're in love with Lexi. You know as well as I do that her powers are way more advanced than any of the other psychics we've found."

"So what! You know her Sam. Lex, is not evil." Dean stated desperately more for his own peace of mind than Sam's.

"Yeah, I do know her, Dean. That's why I'm worried. She's wasted FOUR demons on her own. Look what she did to that Banshee last night!"

"And that's a bad thing? She got us out of a tight spot there. If she wasn't there last night my ticket would've been punched."

"DEAN!" Sam spun around glaring down at his older brother, "She made the Banshee explode into flames just by looking at her!"

"So what Sammy!"

"Wake up!" Sam stated his eyes wide, "Ever think how come she can use her powers on me? Every other psychic couldn't use their powers on me and vice versa."

"Well, maybe because no one else was as advanced." Dean retorted.

"That's bullshit and you know it. Andy was pretty damn advanced and so was Max and their powers didn't work on me."

"I don't know Sammy, okay!" Dean gestured wildly, his voice harsh, stepping toe to toe with Sam, "I just know she wouldn't hurt anyone. You know that too."

"Yeah, Dean? You've said that about me but I murdered Wandell now didn't I."

"Sammy, I don't wanna fight it's your birthday."

"That never stopped you before." Sam hissed his lips set in a thin tight line.

"Come on, Sammy ya know if it's the last thing I do I'm going to save you both. You can count on that."

Night of May 2, 2007

Dean threw the Impala in park in front of the greasy spoon that would have to suffice for dinner handing a $20.00 bill to Sam, "Don't forget the extra onions this time."

"Dude, I'm the one that's gonna have to ride in the car with your extra onions." Sam bitched snatching the $20.00 while Dean smirked at him.

"I'll make sure he gets your extra onions." Lexi stated leaning over the front seat pressing her lips gently to his, "I need to stretch my legs anyway."

"Hey, see if they have any pie."

"Yeah, yeah, I know you love your pie." She chuckled getting out of the car.

"Bring me some pie!" Dean called after her before turning his attention to the radio talking to himself, "Love me some pie."

Dean looked down at the radio as it began cutting in and out while the light rain drummed softly on the car. He tapped on it once or twice thinking maybe there was a short in the wiring and the tapping would fix the problem. He looked around when that didn't work noticing the café in front of him now appeared to be empty.

He rushed inside, the man in the second booth lay dead on the table, he pulled his gun calling for Sam and Lexi. He continued his walk through only to find the cooks dead behind the counter with no sign of either Lexi or Sam. He opened the side door, once again calling for his girlfriend and his younger brother without getting an answer. Dean closed the door noticing that their was something around the door's window.

"Sulfur….." Dean stated to himself before heading back out the front door, "Sam! Lexi! SAMMY! LEX!"

May 3, 2007

Sam opened his eyes to find himself on the ground of an abandoned town. He got to his feet pulling out his cell phone only to find it had no reception. Frustrated, he began his search to find answers.

He began looking in shop windows and jingling door handles trying to figure out what was going on when he finally found one door unlocked. Sam crept inside the building without caution never thinking twice what lay inside. He jumped back just in time, narrowly missing his head being bashed in by an old rotted piece of wood.

"WHAT THE HELL?" He yelled in surprise as he focused on the figure in front of him.

"Sam?" Lexi questioned doubtfully dropping the wood to the floor, "Is that really you?"

"Uh, yeah it's me. Why the hell are you trying to kill me?" Sam asked shaking his head slightly and raising his eyebrows.

"I'm sorry. Where are we? Do you think Dean's here too?"

"I dunno but if Dean's here he would've found us by now." Sam picked up the piece of wood that Lexi had dropped motioning to the door, "Come on let's find a way out of here."

They walked out of the dilapidated building with Sam in the lead. Cautiously he stopped short when he hears a noise around the corner. Sam stood absolutely still getting ready to clobber whoever was on the other side of the building.

Sam was shocked to see the person in front of him. He dropped the wood in his hand still a little surprised, "Andy?"

"Sam? What are you doing here?"

"I dunno." Sam stated calmly.

"What am I doing here?" Andy asked the panic rising in his voice.

"I dunno." Sam answered truthfully.

Andy chewed anxiously on his bottom lip gesturing with his hands, "Where are we?"

"Andy, look calm down."

"Calm down? I just woke up in friggin Frontier Land!"

"What's the last thing you remember?"

"Honestly," Andy smiled fondly, "my fourth bong load. It was weird all of a sudden there was this really intense smell like uh….."

"Sulfur?" Lexi questioned moving from behind Sam to stand at his side.

Andy turned his attention from Sam to the petite girl now standing next to him, "How'd you know that?"

"Dean." She replied casually shrugging her shoulders.

Andy looked up at Sam with what appeared to be relief, "Your brother, is he here?"

Sam shook his head stating softly, "I dunno where he is. I dunno if he's……"

"He's not here." Lexi said firmly, "Dean's definitely not here."

"Who are you?" Andy questioned her.

"I'm Lexi, Dean's girlfriend and telepath. I take it you're a freak too."

"OH hey, I'm a telepath too." Andy said a smile pulling at the corners of his mouth.

"Great." She stated sarcastically, "I'd love to stay and chat but I'm really not into the whole demonic Disneyland thing."

Twenty minutes later

After searching the deserted town, Sam, Lexi and Andy found three more of the Yellow Eyed Demon's psychics: Ava, Jake and Lilly. In total, the group held two psychics, two telepaths, a superman of sorts and someone who could kill just by their touch. They exchanged similar stories, none of them understanding fully what was happening to them or why. Sam desperately tried to explain to them what was happening while Lexi looked on smirking when the others thought Sam was an escaped mental patient.

"So we're soldiers in a demon war to bring on the apocalypse?" Jake questioned doubtfully pacing in front of Sam.

"Well when you put it like that……"Sam snapped before being cut off by Jake.

Jake stared at Sam not believing any of it, "And, and we've been picked?"

"Yes."

"Why us?" Jake asked harshly.

Sam sighed, shrugging and shaking his head, "I'm not sure okay, but look, I just know….."

"Sam," Ava said with doubt in her voice, "I'm sorry psychics and spoon bending is

one thing. But demons?"

Lexi grunted rolling her eyes at Ava's stupidity, "Yeah demons. Newsflash everyone, demons are real. Wow, there must've been slim pickings for this army."

"Look I know it sounds crazy." Sam protested giving Lexi the stink eye, she was not helping the cause.

Jake pointed at Sam his eyebrows knotting together, "It just doesn't sound it…."

"I really don't care what you think, okay!" Sam stated frustrated, "If we're all gathered here together that means it's starting. And that we gotta….."

Jake's eyes scanned the group around him before speaking, looking at each one of them. "The only thing I have to do is stay away from whack jobs, okay. I've heard enough. I'm better off on my own and FYI so are you."

"Jake, hold on. Jake."

"Sam, let him go." Lexi stated firmly, "If army boy wants to take on this demonic fun house by himself let him. It's not your responsibility."

Later that day

"I've seen that bell before." Sam remarked as he and Jake stood by the well as the others looked on. "I think I know where we are now, Cold Oaks, South Dakota. A town so haunted every single resident fled."

"Swell, good to know we're somewhere SO historical." Lexi said the sarcasm just dripping in her tone.

"Why in the world would that demon or whatever put us here?" Lilly questioned her eyes darting among the group fearfully.

"I'm wondering the same thing." Sam answered.

"Ya know what doesn't matter." Lilly stated before turning away, "Clearly the only sane thing to do here is get the hell outta dodge."

An Hour Later

"Ya know I'm thinking about how much Dean would help right now." Sam huffed while Jake went to retrieve Lilly's dead body from the windmill, "I'd give my arm for a working phone."

"You know you may not need one." Andy stated, "I mean I've never tried it long distance before but do you have anything of Dean's on you like something he's touched?"

"Um…I got a receipt will that work?" Sam stated with uncertainty.

"Yeah. D. Hassellhoff?" Andy asked as he unfolded the receipt Sam had just handed to him.

"Yeah, yeah that's Dean's signature. It's, it's hard to explain."

"All right…." Andy laughed as he smirked.

"Is it working?" Sam asked anxiously as him and Lexi stared at Andy hopefully.

"No," Andy answered in disappointment, "he must be too far away or this receipt isn't a strong enough connection."

Sam glanced back and forth at Lexi and Andy excitement filling his eyes, "Wait a minute! That's it!"

"What's it?" Andy and Lexi said in unison confused by Sam's excitement.

"YOU Lexi!"

"What?" she questioned Sam raising her eyebrow at him, "Me what? What are you getting at geek boy?"

"You and Dean! You two already have a connection!" Sam gestured with excitement, "I know you do and you know it too! Plus you're telepathic! And, and I KNOW you two have those silent conversations with each other. You can already project your thoughts into his head and vice versa!"

"I dunno Sam. I never tried this before….."

"No, Sam's right Lexi." Andy said nodding enthusiastically, "You're already connected; you just need to concentrate on finding Dean."

The Roadhouse

"What the hell did Ash know?" Dean asked walking out of the rubble that was once the Roadhouse towards the Impala, "We got no way of knowing where Ellen is or if she's even alive. We got no clue what Ash was gonna tell us, now how the hell are we gonna find Sam and Lexi?"

"We'll find them." Bobby said as both him and Dean stood on opposite sides of the Impala facing each other. Dean groaned suddenly, his eyes shut tight while he leaned forward his hands flying to his head. "Dean?"

Bobby eyed Dean carefully while he groaned again shaking his head as the images stopped. Dean looked up thinking that whatever just happened was over. Suddenly, he was hit once again with stronger images causing him to groan loudly with both hands now clutching his head. He collapsed against the hood of his car once the vision ended.

"What was that?" Bobby asked a tad harshly.

"I dunno headache??" Dean asked weakly.

Bobby looked carefully at Dean in concerned, "You get headaches like that a lot?"

"No…." Dean stated his eyebrows knotted together, "No, must be the stress. I could've sworn I saw something though."

"Whatta mean? Like a vision? Like what Sam and Lexi gets?"

"What? No." Dean denied vehemently shaking his head.

Bobby shrugged treading lightly, "I'm just saying."

"Come on, I'm not some psychic." Dean stated harshly his face suddenly twisting in agony. He dropped to his knees moaning as the vision, stronger this time, hit him full force. The images of the bell, Lexi and Sammy flew through his mind and this time Dean heard Lexi's voice clearly as if she was standing right beside him. 'The demon has us trapped here, Dean.'

"Dean! Dean!" Bobby called out rushing to Dean's side to help him up, "Are you with me?"

Dean groaned once more, lifting his head up to look at Bobby, "Yeah, I think so. Lexi, I heard her. And I saw Sam and Lexi. I saw them, Bobby."

"It was a vision." Bobby stated nodding his head for emphasis.

"Yeah, I don't know how but yeah." Dean said slowly straightening himself up, "Woo that was about as fun as getting kicked in the jewels."

"What else did you see?"

"Uh, there was a bell."

"What kinda bell?" Bobby questioned Dean in an effort to get more information out of him.

"Um like a big, a big bell." Dean said using his hands to demonstrate the size of the bell, "With uh some kinda engraving on it, I dunno."

"Engraving?"

"Yeah."

"Was it a tree?" Bobby asked tilting his head to the side, "Like an Oak Tree?"

"Yeah, exactly."

Bobby looked Dean straight in the eye stating knowingly, "I know where they are."
