Maggie looked like she was on the verge of tears again. "That's great, but I don't know if I have time to deal with that right now. There are still murders going on at Stanford. I just got a call saying that the school is closed until they figure out what's going on. Charlotte is behind all of this. I know it. I may need you two to say a spell with me to get the curse off Stanford. I don't know if I can do it by myself."
Kelly nodded "I understand, we can help you with the spell. But you've got to get Dean away from Charlotte. If you want him back. He's still got that medicine in his system and it could kill him. "
Meanwhile, Dean had somehow gotten out of his Witch entrance and looked at Charlotte above him "What the Hell?" then he threw her off him. "Get off me!" Charlotte glared up at him from the floor. Dean couldn't remember how he had gotten to her place. He had to get out of there and go to Sam's. Then he thought of Maggie and how she had threw him out. "Christ", he muttered and got on his clothes. Walking outside, he saw his Impala there. He got in it and began to drive away, tires squealing. Whatever Charlotte had drugged him with was slowly working. He felt weak, tired, sick, and his vision blurred a bit. He struggled to keep the car on the road.
Charlotte watched Dean drive off . She was pissed at him. "He won't get very far". she said.
Maggie started to think. Dean was the most important thing in her life. Would he be upset if she saved him instead of innocents at Stanford? 'God, I hope I'm going the right thing,' she thought. "Ok, fine. I'll go get Dean." Maggie snapped her fingers and she was in the Impala with Dean. "Pull over, Dean." Dean looked bad, Maggie started to worry that she hadn't arrived in time.
Kelly in the meantime drove her and Jess back to her and Elliot's place. Mary Dean's mother was called to baby sit John Dean until everything got sorted. Kelly's plan was to have her and Jess find a spell that would get rid of the Curse. If that didn't work, then she would have to find some way to kill the witch then that would end the Curse. Maybe Elliot and Sam could help them to destroy the Witch she thought. She arrived home and went into the living room. "Elliot! Sam!" time for a meeting".
Dean felt like crap on the inside. He started to run a fever, and was constantly having chills. He could barely control his car. He was surprised when Maggie entered the car. He thought she had given up on him. Doing as she said, he pulled over to the side of the road "Maggie, " he coughed.
"I'm so sorry about everything". he looked at her. "It wasn't my fault, Charlotte, she put a curse on me".
Maggie ignored him and simply said, "You're sick." She put the car in park and then leaned over so that she was close to Dean. Putting her hands on either side of his face, she said a spell. Whatever Charlotte injected Dean with was now out of his system. Maggie slumped into the passenger seat, exhausted. She'd used a lot of energy and magic today and the effects were starting to show. "Better now?" she asked.
Dean nodded and thanked her. "Maggie, I really am sorry. If Charlotte hadn't drugged me or put a Curse on me, I wouldn't have cheated on you." Once he saw he wasn't getting through to her Dean mumbled to himself "Why are women so freaking complicated?" then he said to her "If you want, I can have my things out by this afternoon. I'll go stay at some hotel. I guess by now, you don't want to marry me." Dean decided if Maggie was going to be stubborn and hard headed, then he was going to be stubborn back. He had done apologized twice and it was up to her now if she still wanted to marry him.
"Dean, it's fine. It really is.. I"m just so tired..." Maggie trailed off and then fainted.
Dean was relieved to hear that. At least Maggie wasn't planning on kicking him out. Dean started the car back up and drove back to Maggie's home. He carried her into the house and into bed. While waiting for her to get up, Dean hoped she was going to be alright. He figured her using her powers made her feel exhausted. While she slept, Dean fixed Supper. He hoped she had an appetite for something tasty. He fixed a Tuna pasta dinner.
A few hours later, Maggie awoke to the smell of delicious food. During her nap, she had a dream that Dean was still with Charlotte. She was so exhausted that she didn't realize it was only a dream. Stumbling downstairs, Maggie opened her eyes and yawned. She looked confused. "Dean?" she asked. "You're back?"
Dean finished cooking and cut off the stove. Seeing Maggie was awake, he looked at her "Of Course. I could never leave you Maggie. You found me when I was sick and healed me. I broke free of Charlotte once I found out what she was doing. You hungry? I've got supper made. I fixed garlic bread along with Tuna pasta, your favorite."
Maggie nodded but on her way to the table she stopped and hugged Dean. "Don't scare me like that again," she whispered.
He hugged her back surprised. "Scare you? Now why would I do something like that? I thought you were done with me when you kicked me out of the house. Now, that really did scare me to think you didn't love me anymore. I'm surprised that you even bothered to save my life."
"I love you, Dean. I'll always save you." Said Maggie.
"I love you to Maggie. And I'll always be there when you need me to through the good times and the bad and when you need help to". reassured Dean. He hugged her close as if he was afraid he was going to lose her again.
Meanwhile, Kelly was having a hard time figuring out how to get rid of Charlotte. "I'm completely clueless on how to get rid of the Witch. My first spell didn't seem to phase her. I think we're going to have to destroy her". she said to Elliot. While Elliot cooked, she stood over her spell book.
"Which witch is it?" Elliot asked, turning away from the stove. He was wearing a light blue cooking apron that stated, "My Cooking is Heavenly" and holding a spatula.
"It's Charlotte Maggie's nemesis over at Stanford. I've done tried several spells to get rid of her, and nothing seems to be working". Kelly sighed and kept leafing through the book. She suddenly glanced at Elliot's apron and what it said and begin to smirk. "Nice Apron".
"Um, yeah, it was a gag gift from Maggie a couple years ago," Elliot grinned. "Don't deny. You know I look adorable in this." He glanced over Kelly's shoulder and pondered over the name Charlotte. "Oh! You know what...Charlotte is part of a right of passage for you, Maggie and Jessica in Witchcraft..." Elliot trailed off. "For the curse on Stanford to break, you're going to have to kill her." Elliot flipped to a page in Kelly's spell book, on the left of the page, it had material for summoning a witch, on the right, it told how to kill a high-level witch. He pointed to it.
Kelly got a sick feeling at the pit of her stomach. She hoped that it wouldn't come down to this, her having to kill a person. No, not a person she had to correct herself. An evil Witch that was going to surely destroy them all within a few days or a week if her spells didn't work. Kelly looked at the page and said out loud "It says we have to find a way to burn the Witch after we summon her. Once she is dead, then the curse will be lifted off of Stanford and off of Dean." Kelly sighed "I guess I have to get the others to help me. After we eat supper that is." Kelly looked at Elliot and added "Yes, you do look adorable in that apron". she managed a smile.
Elliot kissed her. "You can do this. You just have to remember, she is not a person. She is evil." Elliot put some food onto Kelly's plate. "Maggie can help with the fire bit. She's really good with fire and water elements."
Kelly kissed him back and nodded. " I'm good with fire's to since I'm a firestarter. With both of mine and her powers, we should be able to take her down". She got her fork and knife ready to dig into the delicious steak and pasta side dish set before. Elliot even made salad with the meal "Wow. Elliot. This looks good!"
"Let's just hope it tastes good," grinned Elliot. He knew Kelly was nervous about having to kill, but he figured he may be able to take her mind off of it.
Kelly tried some of everything "This is delicious. You know, if you weren't with the FBI, you could have a great career being a Chef".
"Hm...yeah but that wouldn't put my powers to good use. Maybe when I retire from the FBI..." he said.
Kelly nodded understanding. "Yeah. Cooking will always be there during retirement. Maybe then we can own a restaurant together". Kelly liked to cook sometimes when it came to baking. But most of the time, she let Elliot cook. After supper was over, Kelly called up Jess and Maggie three way on her cell "Maggie, I need you and Jess to get rid of Charlotte as soon as possible. I found a summon spell and we have to kill her with fire".
Maggie was laying down with Dean. "I can be by later tonight if you want me to," she said.
Kelly "Okay great. How is Dean doing by the way? Did you find him in time?" she asked.
"Yeah, Dean's a lot better," replied Maggie as she swatted Dean's hands away from tickling her stomach. He was definitely back to normal.
Jess who had been quiet and listening spoke up "I can be there in a bout an hour myself. We just have to give John Dean his first bath. I think he's excited already about it".
"Sounds good to me," Maggie said.
A few hours later Kelly got everything she needed together. Then she waited for the others to get their.
Maggie kissed Dean good-bye and then used a spell to transport herself to Kelly's. She carried a bag with a few ingredients and her book of shadows. "Ready to get rid of something evil?" she asked Kelly cheerfully.
Kelly stood over her things making sure she had everything ready. She grew more and more nervous about having to kill something evil. She wiped her hands on her jeans and tried to hide her nerves. "Yeah, I guess so though I'm not too happy about it. "
Jess appeared moments later looking a bit exhausted. "Sorry I'm late. John Dean took forever to get to sleep."
"It's ok," Maggie said to Jessica. She wondered how the other two would handle this. As far as Maggie knew, this would be their first time killing anything. She was lucky she had experience as a hunter. She gave Kelly's hand a squeeze. "We can do this,' she said.
Kelly slightly smiled at Maggie. Her hand was still clammy which was odd for her. "I hope so. I just don't know how I feel about taking Charlotte's life". Kelly was glad to have friends like these. Just having Maggie and Jess here would make all the difference and maybe make this thing over with soon enough. "I've never had to kill anyone before".
"Charlotte isn't anyone. She's not even a person. Just think of how many people she's killed at Stanford today." Maggie reminded her.
"And she's evil. A total Monster. Monsters deserve to be killed". added Jessica.
Kelly looked at both of them and agreed "Your both right. Let's get this over with". she began to summon the spell for the Witch.
Maggie and Jessica joined in the chanting. Earlier, Maggie had placed quartz around the circle that Charlotte would appear in. The quartz would hold her in place until the three witches could kill her.
Charlotte soon appeared in the circle near the quartz. "Oh Great. Now I've been summoned by some Campus losers. What do you girls want?" she asked.
Kelly looked at Charlotte her eyes had gone black. And her hair changed some to as well. "Charlotte, you've gone too far with all the killings around Campus. It has to stop".
Charlotte smirked "You think you've seen the last of me? Not by a long shot".
"This will be the last of you." Maggie said simply. She snapped and the wood around Charlotte's feet began to burn.
Charlotte began to scream. The fire burned her shoes and feet and it hurt so bad! "Nooooo. You can't do this!!! You can't!!! You'll be sorry!!!!" she glared at Kelly trying to make her feel guilty.
Kelly didn't let Charlotte bother her. She joined Maggie and using her powers, Kelly made Charlotte burn more and more fire surrounded her. When Jess joined them, soon Charlotte went up in flames screaming all the way.
There was a small explosion and then nothing was left of Charlotte except some ashes on the ground. Maggie plopped down on the floor, exhausted. "Ok, now all we have do to is throw the ashes in the ocean, let it carry them away and we are good to go."
Kelly's eyes and hair returned to normal. She got a empty vase from nearby and swept Charlotte's ashes into it. Elliot lived near the Ocean so emptying Charlotte's ashes wouldn't be a bit of a problem. "Me and and Elliot can handle the ashes. What do you girls wanna do? We could eat popcorn and catch up on things".
"Sounds great to me," Maggie said. She stayed sitting on the floor, however. "It's been such a long week."
Jess rubbed her shoulders as if massaging them. "I know tell me about it. It's a bit tough being a mother for the first time. John Dean cries every night. And I tend to lose some sleep".
Kelly smiled at her slightly "Welcome to motherhood".
"If you need any help, you know you can call us. Besides, Dean needs to spend some quality time with his nephew." Maggie grinned.
"I don't know if I like the idea of them two spending time together. He might teach him the wrong things". said Jess unsure if it was wise for Dean to be doing babysitting.
Kelly began to smirk. "Dean Winchester babysitting? Now that's something I'd like to see or hear about. Maggie, could you video tape the whole thing?"
Maggie laughed. "Yes I will video tape it. And don't worry, Jess. I will supervise Dean the whole time."
"My mind will rest easy knowing you'll be there". said Jess. She relaxed on a nearby sofa.
Kelly looked at them she thought this would be the perfect time to discuss tour plans. "Me and Elliot have been planning my Summer tour together. It's good that Maggie and Dean could baby-sit. Maybe they can do that while we're on the road. And Sam could bring John Dean when he visits us. I've invited Nickelback to open up for me next Summer. I'm so excited."
"That sounds great! I'm really glad you two are going together," Maggie said. "I'll try to see you when I can, but I'm teaching a couple summer classes."
Kelly smiled "Me to. Elliot's a really great guy and he's proved to me that not all guys are jerks out there. Did you know he's got a great singing voice and is really talented at songwriting? We've written a few songs together recently. And when we sing together, it's just perfect".
"Elliot sings harmony and writes songs? That's really cool. I didn't know that about him". said Jess. "Are you going to hire another backup singer?"
Kelly shook her head. "Both you and Elliot will sing backup with me. I figured he could do that while he plays guitar. He'll have one of those microphones that you wear around your face".
"Awesome". said Jess.
"Sounds fun." Maggie came back into the living room from the kitchen, bearing popcorn.
Kelly leaned back relaxing herself. Then she noticed Dean's engagement ring was back on her finger. "I take it, you put the ring back on? Have you two scheduled a date yet?" she was happy the two was still engaged.
"Not yet. We've been kinda busy...making up," grinned Maggie.
Kelly looked at her friend and grinned "The best part is when you make up and completely forget what you two were mad at each other in the first place. How is he health-wise?"
"He seems back to normal," Maggie replied.
"He's very lucky to have you Maggie and he realizes that. Sam says he used to be afraid of commitment and had trust issues with people". said Kelly.
Maggie smiled and thanked Kelly.
6 months later, Kelly and the band were getting ready to go on a tour. They had practiced all their songs and Choreography. Kelly even had dancers that would dance with her on a number of fast songs. The only thing she was missing, was another guitar player. Both her, Elliot, and Jess sounded great together.
Introducing Ali Larter as Sandy Carter.
Sandy Carter was out in the front row waiting to audition for Kelly's band. She had heard there was going to be one more Audition held for several band member positions. She played a few sounds off her Electric Guitar and begin singing to herself low trying to control her nerves. Sandy looked great. She had Dark Auburn hair that fell past her shoulders, and she wore mostly dark colors when it came to clothes and Jeans. When the band stopped practicing, Sandy stood up ready to audition.
Kelly spotted the girl on the front row and waved to her. She motioned for her to come up onstage. "You must be Sandy who signed up to Audition".
The girl smiled and nodded "It's Sandy Carter. I can do more than just play Guitar. I love to sing to".
Kelly smiled "Okay. Go ahead and show us what you can do".
Feeling more nervous Sandy strummed some more cords and began to sing "Black Velvet".
