Thanks to everyone following this. I promise, Ezra and Fairy that Sam will have some knowledge of his sisters by the end of chapter 34. I have to say a special thanks to Wendy and Denise for helping me get brave enough to actually start this thing let alone post it.

Chapter 30

The whole time I had her talking to me, Dean had managed to get a hold of the knife he kept in his back pocket. He was free by the time she had told me who her killer was. He had started to make a move toward her when I shook my head. It was s signal for him to stop and get out of there. He grabbed his shirt and coat and took off.

I knew Dean didn't want to leave me like that, but there was no other choice. He needed to get out of there and go tell dad what we had learned. I was hoping the Kymorii wouldn't chase after him and was glad when she turned back to me. I knew I was in trouble, but Dean was safe and that was all that mattered.

The Kymorii just stared at me. She said that was twice I'd helped her dinner get away. I just shrugged and told her that Dean had gone to get the sheriff so she could have a real meal as well as her revenge. She smiled at that and actually said thank you. She said something about company coming and left me alone in the cave.

I must have fallen asleep, because it was suddenly dark and I heard Dean calling for me. I could tell by the sounds of the footsteps that there was only 1 other person with him. All of a sudden there was a blood curdling scream and Dean ran into the cave. I could still here the screaming and asked Dean what was going on as he untied me. He just shook his head and helped me stand up.

There was a gun shot and then silence. When we got outside, there was the sheriff lying in a pool of his own blood. Shannon was lying next to him holding his gun. She had gotten her revenge for her own murder and was now at rest. I couldn't really believe what I was seeing. I asked Dean what the hell had happened.

Dean told me that when he had gotten back to the Jeep, the sheriff was standing behind it writing down the plate #. Dean told him that I was in trouble and that he had barely gotten away. She sheriff asked Dean to lead him to me, so he did exactly that. He didn't realize this was "the" sheriff that had killed Shannon until she attacked him. There was really nothing he could do so he just ran off and let her have him.

We walked back to where our rope was in stunned silence. When we got there, James, Sam, and dad were standing at the top of the cliff. They asked if we were ok and we both said no at the same time. I said that Dean was bleeding from some pretty nasty gashes on his back and Dean told them my wrist was broken. They helped us get back up the cliff and then took us straight to the hospital.

When we got back to the motel, they asked us what happened. All we said was that the Kymorii was taken care of and refused to answer any other questions. I walked into the room James and I shared, with James close behind me, and just crawled into bed. When James and I woke up the next morning, dad and my brothers were gone. I knew they would be so I just went in and took a nice long shower.

While James and I were packing, my phone rang. Dean was calling to tell me they were ok and he was sorry that dad had made him leave before he could say goodbye. I told him it was ok, I needed to get back to school anyway. The line was silent for a minute, then I told him it was good to see him and to call me any time he needed to talk. He said ok and that he come visit me soon, then hung up.

James asked me if I was ok and I said I was fine. I asked him what he'd been up too with dad and Sam while Dean and I were getting rid of the Kymorii. He went into this elaborate story about how they had figured out it was the sheriff that had killed Shannon. They had actually sent the sheriff out to look for us, hoping we hadn't found the Kymorii yet. He said it had been dad's idea.

I just shook my head and went back to packing up. We loaded up the Jeep and headed back to school. I didn't actually see Dean again for nearly 2 years, but he called me almost everyday. Every time Sam and dad got into one of their stupid fights he would slip out and call me so they couldn't drag him into it. He still ended up in the middle anyway, but it didn't drag him down as much as before.
