Sorry its taken so long for me to put this up, I'm a bad author I know, but the day after I put the last chapter up something happened and I really just did not want to write and I probably would have killed the winchesters and castiel and anything remotely male.

I DON'T OWN THE WINCHESTERS OR SUPERNATURAL. If I did, I would have drove Jensen crazy by now (:

Disappearing Act Part I

Castiel appeared in the doorway silently, watching the scene in the kitchen with a slightly bemused expression on his face. It appeared as though Dean, whilst still slightly irritated by Leigh, was slowly warming to her. Sam was simply watching them both with a small smile. Castiel imagined this was what it was like to be part of a family, granted a highly dysfunctional one. Sam jumped as he turned around and saw Cas stood in the doorway.

"You alright Cas?" he asked. "You seem pensive."

"It was true, what Lucifer said," he informed them solemnly. "If Leigh actively goes against her father, she's no longer protected from him." Leigh exhaled slowly and was watching Dean from the corner of her eye. It was clear from his face that he was dying to go into a rant, instead he simply took a deep breath.

"That settles it," Dean said quietly, turning to Leigh. "Stay away from this. Away from me and Sam. Away from the apocalypse. Stay safe." Leigh was about to snap back when a voice from the door said.

"Now Dean, she can't do that. Ruin my fun." Everyone turned to see Lucifer smirking in the doorway. Castiel stood between him and the Winchesters, Leigh stepped in front of him.

"Three visits in one day? I feel honoured." she said sarcastically, her eyes darting around the room looking for an escape.

"Call it making up for lost time," he answered patronisingly. "There's no point looking for an exit, I have the house surrounded."

"What do you want?!" Leigh cried. "Why can't you leave me in peace for five god damn minutes? You won't get Dean! You'll have to get past me and Cas first."

"I'm not here for Dean," Lucifer told her bluntly. "I'm here for my rightful vessel." Sam and Dean looked at each other confused and Leigh's brow furrowed in confusion.

"Samuel," Lucifer explained, turning to Sam. "Ruby was training you for more than just my release." Sam's face darkened at the mention of Ruby and his failure to see through her mask.

"All you have to do, is say yes," Lucifer informed him.

"Over my dead body," Sam hissed. Lucifer rolled his eyes, humans were so fond of their little clichés.

"Well, no matter," he said, laying his hand on Leigh's cheek. "I always come with a back-up plan." His hand wound itself in Leigh's hair and before anyone could stop him he held her against him with a knife to her throat.

"You will come to me Sam," he answered seriously. "You have all the time in the world to change your mind. Not entirely sure she does though." he threatened, gesturing at Leigh.

"You bull-shitter," Leigh gasped, trying to get away from the knife. "You can't touch me, I've not done anything!"

"Fortunately for me, darling," he hissed mockingly. "My associates don't have that particular hang-up." Leigh's eyes widened.

"Demons," Dean almost growled. "You'd throw your own daughter to demons?"

"I will have Sam," Lucifer informed them seriously. "And I will so whatever necessary. I'm not limited by your human thinking Dean, the ends justify the means. If Kayleigh has to suffer for this Apocalypse, then so be it. I'd be wary of time though, I'm not sure Kayleigh is strong enough to last all that long."

"Don't listen to him," Leigh pleaded. "Don't come after me. I'm disposable, you two aren't. Get the colt-" Leigh choked as the knife was pressed harder against her throat and tears leaked from the corners of her eyes as it broke the surface of her skin. Not deep enough to do any serious damage, but deep enough so that she could feel blood start to roll down her throat.

"Please," she whispered. "Just leave me."

"Let her go," Dean demanded. Castiel stood stoically silent watching them, both Lucifer and Kayleigh were equally stubborn, neither would give in easily, a trait they seemed to share also with the Winchesters who remained on the other side of the table. Deans face was contorted with pain, it was obvious he had no plan, no idea, not a clue of what he could do. Lucifer was whispering in Kayleigh's ear, none of them could hear what he was saying, but from the look on her face, it clearly was not good. Her face paled of all colour and her eyes widened in clear horror.

"No," they heard her whimper, clenching her eyes firmly shut.

"I'm afraid so," Lucifer chuckled. "I can't control my demons, who knows what else they could do?" Leigh opened her eyes and looked straight at Dean, she knew she did not have long. 'Stay safe' she mouthed at him. He looked back confused, did she really think he was just going to leave her?

"She wants you to," Castiel was suddenly behind him.

"Wants him to what?" Lucifer asked, eyes flashing. "What did you say?" he demanded, tightening his hold on Kayleigh. She only choked back a sob and kept her eyes and mouth firmly closed. There was no way she was telling him anything, ever, no matter how much pressure he put on her.

Dean meant to much to her.

Before Dean could so much as blink, they had disappeared into thin air.

sooooo, what dya think? reviews =
