A/N: Hello all, here's a new chapter for ya. ENJOY!
"So I'm going to die huh?" Katie asked. "When?"
"I don't know" Elizabeth replied.
"Where?" Katie asked.
"I don't know that either" Elizabeth stated.
"How about by who, how and why?" Katie asked. "Let me guess you don't know. So you came here to tell me that I'm going to die, one day, well Ms. Sullivan that is a fact for everyone in this room, so if you'll excuse me" Katie went about grabbing some of her things she left at Bobby's.
"Don't you think you should at least listen to her?" Bobby asked. Katie looked up at him before storming over to the other side of the desk and looked him right in the eye.
"How long have you known her Bobby?" Katie asked. "Weeks, months, years?" Bobby didn't say anything. "After all this time, you knew, you knew" Katie shook her head before turning her back to him and looked at Elizabeth. "You told him not to tell me about you, right?"
"Don't be angry with Bobby" Elizabeth replied. "He was just being a friend-"
"Your friend!" Katie snapped. "He was being your friend, he lied to me and kept something this important from me" Katie turned to Sam and Dean. "Please tell me neither one of you knew about this"
"We didn't" Dean replied.
"Ok" Katie said throwing one final book into her bag. "Let's go"
"Wait princess" Dean said stopping Katie. "I get you're upset right now, but Bobby's right, don't you think we should at least hear her out" Katie glanced back at the woman.
"Dean I've spent 26 years waiting for an explaination from that woman and-" Katie stopped mid-sentence. Something was wrong.
"Princess?" Katie heard Dean say, but soon she was no longer in Bobby's house, but somewhere else. She was in a bar, she looked around at two men having drinks, when suddenly a younger man came in and pointed a gun toward them. Katie heard the loud pop of the gun being fired and the young man running out of the bar. The man from before begins CPR trying to revive his shot friend. Katie assumes it's useless until she sees the man exhale.
"What the hell?" Katie says as the man opens his eyes. His friend helps him up and the man seems fine.
"Princess!" Katie hears, but it's faint. She looks around for something to tell her where she is. She runs over to the bar and looks for something. She looks up to see a neon lamp with the words "Bison Bud's Bar" on the wall.
"Katie, can you hear me?" Katie turns and soon the scene before her begins to melt away. She finally sees Dean again in front of her, with his hands on her shoulders.
"Dean" Katie finally speaks.
"What just happened?" Dean asks. "Are you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine" Katie replied.
"You had a vision" Elizabeth said. "What was it about?" Katie turned to look at her with a confused look, before turning back Dean.
"We have a case" Katie said.
"What did you see?" Dean asked.
"Look I'll explain on the way" Katie said. She turned once more to look at Elizabeth and Bobby before turning and walking out of the door.
A few hours later they were on the road, to Wyoming. They hadn't talked about anything accept for the vision. Everyone in the car knew the whole Elizabeth Sullivan topic was a big no-no.
"Well it says here that, there hasn't been any deaths in a week and a half" Sam read from his laptop.
"And that's unusual?" Dean asked.
"Well it's how they're not dying that's unusual" Sam replied. "One guy with terminal cancer, strolls out of hospice"
"And another, gets shot in the heart by a mugger, without so much as a scratch" Katie added. "Something is definitely happening in that town"
"It's got to be something nasty right?" Sam asked. " I mean people making deals or something?"
"You think?" Dean asks.
"I mean what else could it be?" Sam asks and he turns to look at Katie.
"I don't know" Katie replied.
When they arrived in town Sam and Dean went to talk to Jim Jenkins, the man that was shot in the bar. Katie decided to look around town to see if maybe she could find anything out of the norm there. Katie was walking down the sidewalk when she felt that she wasn't alone.
"You might as well show yourself, I know you're there" Katie said.
"That's starting to get a little weird" Urim replied appearing next to Katie. "But then again , it's not"
"What are you doing here?" Katie asked.
"A couple of reasons, but you have something you want to say first" Urim replied.
"Ok what's with the biblical tattoo?" Katie asked.
"That, I do not know" Urim replied. "But I have a theory"
"Well I'll take it" Katie said stopping. "What's your theory"
"I would tell you, but I've been given strict orders to not assist you in some ways, in your journey" Urim said. "I can tell you, that you may be able to find your answers in a book"
"What book?" Katie asked. "Is it rare, like I have to go to the ends of the earth to find it?"
"You won't have to go that far" Urim said "You should be able to find it easily"
"Do I get a name or is this another one of those things I'm going to have to figure out myself?" Katie asked. "Fine, what is it that you have to tell me"
"This town, why people aren't dying" Urim said. "It's missing it's angels"
"It's angels?" Katie asked. "You mean angels of Death?"
"Yes" Urim replied. " They have gone missing, and we believe this is another ploy to break one of the seals"
"You think Lilith is doing this?" Katie asked.
"We don't know who it is just yet, but you must find whoever it is and stop them" Urim said. "This seal cannot be broken" Urim looked up at the sky before looking back down at Katie. "I must go" And with that Urim was gone. Katie looked around the town.
"Angels of Death" Katie said to herself. "So where have all the reapers gone?"
When Katie arrived back to their room, Dean was sitting at the table looking at her laptop. Sam was sitting across from him.
"So what did you guys find out?" Katie asked walking into the room.
"Well there's no deals or even skeevy faith healers" Dean said.
"Well then I guess my source was right" Katie replied.
"Your source?" Dean asked. "Since when do you have a source?"
"I have lots of sources thank you very much" Katie replied.
"Guys, could we please focus" Sam intervened. "What did you source say?"
"This town is missing it's angels of death" Katie replied.
"Angels of death?" Dean asked.
"In more modern terms, reapers" Katie added.
"So where are they?" Dean asked. "The local reaper's on strike? Playing the back nine? "
"I don't know but, I think the best place to start is with the last person to see one" Katie said. "Who was the last person to die in this town?"
"Cole Griffith" Dean said. "Kid dropped ten days ago"
"Well then let's go talk to Cole" Katie replied going over to her bag.
"The kids a door nail." Dean states.
"She's right Dean, Look, if he was the last person to die around here, then maybe he's seen something. We should talk to him." Sam says.
"I love how matter of fact you are about that" Dean said shaking his head. "Strange lives"
That night they all ended up at the cemetery in front of Cole's grave. Katie was looking through her book as Sam and Dean waited. Dean flipped through John's journal. Katie pours something in a bowl.
"The truth?" Katie asked. "I have no idea, the last time I tried making contact with the afterlife it didn't turn out too well" Dean and Sam looked over at her and she turned to them. "Don't worry, that was an entirely different situation, I was young and really wanted to see my grandpa and it just didn't work."
"You never told me that" Dean said and Katie turned back to the bowl.
"I've never told anyone that" Katie replied.
"So what's that stuff supposed to do?" Sam asked.
"It should smoke out our spirit" Katie replied.
"This job is jacked" Dean said and Katie just laughed lightly.
"How so?" Sam asked.
"You want me to gank a monster or torch a corpse, hey, let's light it up, right?" Dean stated. "But this? If we fix whatever this is, people are gonna start dropping dead. Good people."
"Look, I don't want them to die, either, Dean, but there's a natural order." Sam says.
"You're kidding, right?" Dean asks. Katie listens intently as she continues mixing her potion.
"What?" Sam asks.
"You don't see the irony in that?" Dean asks. " I mean, all three of us we're like the poster of the unnatural order. All we do is ditch death."
"Yeah, but the normal rules don't really apply to us, do they?" Sam asked and Dean stares at him.
"We're no different than anybody else." Dean states.
"Right, I'm a witch, you've been to hell and back" Katie says not facing them. "And Sam here is infected with demon's blood, yeah we're real life meet the Cleavers"
"Look, I know you want to think of yourself as Joe the Plumber, Dean," Sam added "but you're not. None of us are. The sooner you accept that, the better off you're gonna be." Dean looks up and shakes his head.
"Ah, Joe the Plumber was a douche." Dean replied.
"So are you guys done being girls?" Katie asked. "Because I could use a little help" Dean walks over to her.
"Hey!" A man shouts and they all looked up toward the voice. They see him walking toward them carrying a flashlight. "What are you doing here?"
"Uh—" Sam sputters before looking between Katie and Dean. "Just take it easy."
"What the hell is this?" The man said looking down at Katie's book and the potion she was working on. Katie looked back up at the man, something wasn't right about him.
"Okay, this—this—this is not what it looks like." Dean says stepping in front of Katie.
"Really? 'Cause it looks like devil worship." The man replied. That's when Katie's fingers started tingling. She tried to shake the feeling from her hand but it was no use.
"Dean-" Katie said placing her hand on her shoulder, but he didn't notice.
"What? No! No, this is not devil worship." Dean said. "This—This is—this—this is, uh—" Dean couldn't think of anything to say. "I don't have a good answer"
"We're leaving." Sam said holding up his hands.
"You're not going anywhere." The man replies taking a step toward Sam. "Ever again Sam" The man looks to Dean and his eyes go white.
"Alastair." Dean says, and the demon's eyes return to their human form. "I thought you got deep fried, extra-crispy."
"Dean-" Katie says again. Something still doesn't feel right. Dean still doesn't say anything, just keeps his eyes on Alistair.
"Nah. Just the pediatrician I was riding." Alistair replied. "His wife's still looking for him. It's hilarious. Anyway. " Alistair turns to Sam who is ten shades of pissed at the moment. Katie looks down at her feet as her vision begins to blur. She backs away, but none of them notice.
"No time to chat. Got a hot date with death." Alistair says before flicking his hand sending Dean flying across the graveyard into a headstone.
"Dean!" Katie says stumbling backwards before falling on her butt. "You bastard what are you doing to me?" Alistair grins and walks over to Katie.
"Couldn't have you ruining my fun now could I?" Alistair says before reaching in his pocket and pulling out a hex bag. "Had to find a pretty powerful witch to whip this up for me"
"Hey!" Sam yells and Alistair turns to the youngest Winchester and flicks a hand but nothing happens. Alistair tries again, but nothing happens and Sam smirks.
"You're stronger, Sam." Alistair says. " You've been solo-flexing with your little slut?"
"You have no idea." Sam says before flicking his hand at Alistair sending him flying. He then raises his hand to exorcise the demon, but Alistair flees the man's body before that could happen. Sam drops his hand and watches as the smoke disappears.
"Sam check on Dean!" Katie yells still lying flat on the ground. Sam runs to check on his brother.
"Dean, hey man" Dean opens his eyes and Sam help him sit up. "You ok?"
"No" Dean says getting to his feet. He spots Katie still lying on the ground and see the hex bag. He runs over to pick it up and throws it as far as he can. "Princess" he kneels down to help her up. "Can you stand?" Katie nods before standing to her feet.
"We should get out of here" They all agreed and after collecting their things returned to the car.
Back in the motel room Katie holds an icepack to Dean's head, while Sam is out trying to talk to their dead kid.
"Is it feeling better?" Katie asks looking down at Dean. Dean opens his eyes and looks up at her. He stares up into her eyes for a moment. "What?"
"Nothing" Dean replies. "Yeah, it's getting there. What about you?" Katie looks down and lifts her shirt.
"Well the hives are gone and I don't feel like throwing up, so I'm good" she replied.
"So what happened while I was out?" Dean asked. "Why didn't Sam get thrown like a tennis ball?"
"How do you think?" Katie replied. "I don't think he knows I saw, but I did and Alistair couldn't work his powers on Sam"
"Why not?" Dean asked and they sat up from the bed.
"Because he's getting powerful Dean" Katie replied. "And that can only mean one thing"
"He's been practicing" Dean said.
"And I bet I know who his teacher is" Katie said. "I really don't like that demon"
"Who you telling" Dean said as the door opened. They both looked up to see Sam come in.
"How you doing?" Sam asked.
"I'm in pain, that's how I'm doing" Dean replied. " I think I have a concussion."
"You told me you were fine" Katie snapped.
"I didn't want you to worry" Dean said before turning to Sam.
"Do you want some asprin?" Sam asked.
"No, House" Dean replied. "So demons huh?
"Yeah. So much for miracles." Sam said going over to sit on the other bed.
"And what the hell happened with Alastair again?" Dean asked hoping Sam would tell him the truth. "And it didn't work, so he bailed."
"Well, how come he couldn't fling you?" Dean asked. "He chucked you pretty good last time." Katie and Dean looked over at him waiting for an answer. Sam looked away before turning back to them.
"Got no idea." Sam replied.
"And there it is" Katie said standing to her feet.
"Sam, do us a favor. If you're gonna keep your little secrets, I can't really stop you, but just don't treat us like we're idiot, okay?"
"What?" Sam said feigning innocence, but they knew he was lying. "Dean, I'm not keeping secrets."
"Sure you're not Sam" Katie said. "So how did you conversation with the ghost kid go?" Sam walks over with his notebook.
"Didn't have to." Sam says holding up the notebook. " Bobby called. He did some digging."
"And?" Dean asked.
"He thinks we're right." Sam says. " Local reaper's gone. Not just gone—kidnapped."
"By demons?" Dean asks "Why?"
"Listen to this." Sam says before opening the note book. "And he bloodied death under the newborn sky—sweet to taste, but bitter when once devoured." Katie turned around away from Sam and Dean.
The words bloodied death seemed to be one repeat in her head. Sam and Dean's conversation seems to disappear, as she sees a little boy standing in the middle of the street of an abandoned town. She suddenly sees Dean before the booming noise of a shot gun being fired. She grabs the back of the chair to steady herself.
"Hey" Dean says coming behind her and resting his hand on her back. "What's wrong, did you see something"
"Yeah" Katie replied. " So dead reapers equals opening of a seal, right?"
"Yeah" Sam said.
"How do even kill a reaper?" Dean asked. "You can't kill death"
"Well everything can be ended" Katie replied. "Maybe demons have figured out a way to end this reaper."
"Where are the angels is what I want to know" Sam says. "We could use their help for once"
"They're dealing with their own problems I'm guessing" Katie said. "We're just going to have to deal with this one on our own"
"What are we gonna do" Sam asks. " Just swing in and save the friendly neighborhood reaper?"
"You got a better idea, I'm all ears." Dean says.
"Dean, reapers are invisible." Sam says stating the obvious " The only people that can see them are the dead and the dying."
"All hell" Katie says and they turn to her. "She was right wasn't she?"
"Well Pricess" Dean says "if ghosts are the only ones that can see them..."
"Yeah?" Sam says still confused.
"Then we become ghosts." Dean says putting the ice pack on his head smirking.
"You do have a concussion." Sam says shaking his head.
"Sounds crazy, I know." Dean says.
"It sounds crazy, because it is crazy" Katie says. "And incredibly dangerous, if done by the wrong person"
"Good thing I know the right person to do it" Dean says.
"I'm not doing it Dean" Katie replied. "If we do, do thing I'm going"
"I know that" Dean said. "I wasn't talking about you"
"Then who?" Katie asked and Dean just took out his phone to make a phone call.
The next morning Katie sat on the bed waiting for Dean to bring, this Pamela woman, who was going to help them. She looked over at Sam who was engulfed in whatever book he was reading. She sighed when she thought about his extracurricular activities. There was a knock on the door and Sam went over to open the door.
"I can't even begin to tell you how crazy you two are." The woman said. Katie stood to her feet and couldn't believe who Dean had brought with him Katie watched at the woman with dark glasses felt around the room.
"Well, Pamela, you're a sight for sore eyes." Sam remarked and Pamela turns to him before lowering her sunglasses far enough to reveal plastic white eyes.
"Aw, that's sweet, grumpy." Pamela said pushing her glasses back. "What do you say to deaf people?"
"Pammy?" Katie says.
"I was wondering when you were going to speak up sugar tush" Pamela said.
"Don't" Katie said.
"You two know each other?" Dean asked.
"You could say that" Pamela said. "We worked together once, a long time ago"
"Sugar Tush?" Dean asked looking over at Katie.
"Don't ask" Katie replied. "Better question, how do you three know each other?"
"Bobby" Sam replied. "He took us to see Pamela when Dean was brought back"
"Yeah, and that day left me without two good eyes" Pamela added. "Which one of you brainiacs came up with astral projection?"
"Yo." Dean replies raising his hand.
"Of course. Chachi." Pamela says. "So, let's be clear. You want to rip your souls out of your bodies and take a little stroll through the spirit world?"
"Mm-hm." Dean says shaking his head.
"Do you have any idea how heavy-duty insane that is?" Pamela asks folding her arms.
"Well clinically insane Pammy" Katie says. "But that's why I going"
"What exactly are you going to do?" Pamela asked.
"A lot has changed" Katie replied.
"Yeah, but most of its stayed the same" Pamela replied. "You still trying to save the world" Sam and Dean share a look, as they watch the two women.
"I still don't see why people say that like it's a bad thing" Katie replied.
"It's not" Pamela replied. "It's just crazy, like this plan of yours"
"Look I was a little doubtful of Dean's friend who knows about this stuff" Katie said. "But now that I know it's you, I feel a little better, I know you know what you're doing."
"Well, I do. And guess what? I'm sick of being hauled Back into your angel-demon, Soc-Greaser crap." Pamela replied.
"You think we want to be in the middle of all this?" Katie asked. "We're sick and tired of it too, but we can't run and hide from it" Katie took a step toward the woman. "This is the end of the world we're talking Pammy, we need your help"
"You're doing the dough eyed thing aren't you?" Pamela asked.
"Yes she is" Dean replied.
"All, hell why not" Pamela replied. " But you better stop calling me Pammy"
"Fine as long as the words Sugar and Tush never come out of your mouth" Katie countered.
After lighting the candles on the table, Katie brings one and places it on the bedside table, that sits between the two beds.
"Hey" Katie says grabbing Pamela's hand and Pamela instantly freezes. "What's wrong?"
"I think you were right" Pamela replied. "You aren't the same, are you?"
"No, I'm not, but I'm not sure what I am though either" Katie replied.
"You're important" Pamela replied. "Like crucial important, if that helps"
"Actually it just confuses me even more" Katie said. "Here sit" Katie help Pamela to the seat that sat between the two beds.
"Tell me something, geniuses." Pamela said. " Even if you do break into the veil and you find the reaper, how you gonna save it?"
"With style and class." Dean answers.
"You're gonna be two walking pieces of fog who can't touch or move anything. You'll be defenseless, hotshot." Pamela said.
"I seem to recall a bunch of ghosts beating the crap out of us." Sam replied.
"Yeah, well, they had plenty of time to practice." Pamela said.
"Well, I guess we got to start cramming" Katie said giving Pamela's shoulder a shake.
"Wow, couple of heroes. All right." Pamela said before patting one of the beds. "Lie down. Close your eyes." Sam goes and lays on the bed to the right of Pamela as Dean and Katie take the bed of the left. Dean brought his arm around Katie as she lay her head on his chest.
"You ready for this princess?" Dean whispers to her.
"As ready as, I'll ever be" Katie replies, before leaning up bringing her lips to his.
"Ok" Pamela says. "Animum vult decipi, ergo decipiatur. Vis, vis, vis. Okay, guys. That's it. Showtime."
Dean sits up off the bed and looks around. He turns and looks over at Pamela, who's still sitting between them.
"Well, nothing like shooting blanks. What's plan B?" Dean asks, but Pamela doesn't respond. Dean quirks an eyebrow, before looking over at Sam's lying form in the bed, the a standing Sam above him. He looks down at his bed to see himself and Katie unconscious in the bed. He looks around the room, but doesn't see Katie.
"All right, so, I'm assuming you're somewhere over the rainbow." Pamela say. "Remember I have to bring you back." She stands and goes over to Sam and leans forward to whisper in his ear. Dean still looks around looking for his wife.
"What the hell?" Katie asked standing in the middle of the street. It looks like the town, but darker. "How did I get here, why aren't I back in the room?"
"Another lesson" A voice says from behind Katie. Katie turns around to see the familiar angel.
"Urim?" Katie says. "What are you doing here?"
"Just making sure everything was going as planned" Urim replied. "You have to find the seal from being broken."
"I know, but I have to find Sam and Dean first" Katie replied. "They're in here, alone and unprotected"
"Sam and Dean will be fine" Urim replied. " They're with a reaper, Tessa" Urim said.
"If they've found a reaper, what is it I have to do?" Katie asked.
"You have to stop Alistair" Urim replied.
"How am I supposed to that?" Katie asked. "I can't even pick up a piece of paper from the ground"
"Well here" Urim says scanning over the area. "You just may be the most powerful being, even more than me" And with that Urim was gone.
"Thank you!" Katie yelled in frustration. "That helped me so much" Katie looked around and tried thinking. She took a deep breath. "Ok so, just focus, if it's in you then it's in you" Katie closed her eyes and ran her fingers through her hair. Katie opens her eyes and looks up to the sky to see a black smoke flying through the air. It stops and falls in front of her. When she reaches to touch it, it quickly retreats and flies away. "What was that?"
"That's what's picking us off one by one" Katie turned to see a man. He was tall with, blond hair and glasses.
"You're a reaper?" Katie asked.
"Yes, I'm Peter" he replied. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to help you" Katie replied walking over to the man.
"It's you isn't it?" Peter asked.
"I don't know" Katie replied. "Look we don't have much, time where is he taking them?"
"You want me to take you to the place, I've been avoiding?" Peter asked.
"Look, I know you're scared but I promise I will not let anything happen to you" Katie said. "Trust me"
"Ok" Peter replied. "They're holding up in the funeral home"
"That's ironic" Katie replied. "Lead the way" Katie followed Peter down the streets, continuously looking around for any sign of Sam and Dean. She hoped they were all right.
"So you're the one?" Peter asked, pulling Katie out of her thoughts.
"The one what?" Katie asked.
"The one they've been talking about" Peter replied. "The one causing all the rukus"
"Rukus?" Katie asked.
"Yeah, you and a pair of brothers named Winchester" Peter said. "You all are all they're talking about"
"Well what are they saying?" Katie asked.
"Just that you're going to do something big" Peter replied. "And the not knowing scares them"
"Well the not knowing scares me too" Katie said. "You seem quite different for a grim reaper"
"You were expecting the black robe and scythe" Peter replied. "And Angels wear white robes and halos hover above their head"
"Touché" Katie replied. "Doesn't it get depressing? Watching people die and then having to take them into the afterlife"
"It was at first" Peter replied. "But after a while, it became natural, that's messed up isn't it?"
"Yes, it is" Katie replied.
"Who are they?" Peter said and Katie walked around him to get a good look.
"That my dear friend are the Winchesters" Katie replied before walking toward them, but Peter stopped.
"You can't just go in there" Peter replied. "It's too dangerous"
"I have to help them" Katie replied.
"It's too late for them" Peter said.
"Look Peter, there's something you should know" Katie said. "Those two guys are my family, the short one that's my husband, and the tall one is my brother in law, so the whole 'it's too late for them' thing just won't work" Katie turned to face him. "So I'm going to need another way in there"
Katie walks to the back of the funeral home. Katie stops ant turns to Peter who's behind her now.
"I can't go in there" Peter says. "I'm sorry"
"I understand" Katie replied. "Thank you for help, don't worry I will end this"
"I know you will" Peter said before disappearing. Katie turned back to the funeral home and steps through the door. She moves quietly as she hears voices up a head. Katie sees a demon holding a scythe and Sam and Dean tied in chains.
"Moon's in the right spot." The demon says. " The board is set. Let's get started, shall we?"
"You're gonna kill a reaper with that?" Dean asks " It's little on the nose, don't you think?"
"Is it?" the demon asks. " An old friend lent it to me. You know, he doesn't really ride a pale horse? But he does have three amigos." And it was then that she knew who the demon was.
"Alistair" Katie says to herself. She looks down at the woman on the floor and over to the others. "Ok what now?" Alistair walks over to the other reapers.
"And they're just jonesing for the apocalypse." Alistair says before picking an old man reaper up. "It pays to have friends in low places." He looks down at the reaper. "Don't you think?" Alistair puts the scythe behind the reaper's neck.
"Hic cruor messorius, illud sigillum, quod luciferem reverendum obstringit, aperiat ut resurgat!" he recites when suddenly the scythe goes flying out of his hand. "What the hell?"
"Quite the opposite" Katie says finally making herself known.
"I was wondering when mama bear was gonna show up" Alistair replied. "But I have to says awful time"
"It's what I'm know for" Katie replied taking a step toward the demon.
"Katie" Dean says and Katie turns to him and just holds up a hand letting him know that she's got this. She turns back to Alistair.
"Well I'm glad you're here" Alistair says. "I mean when you ignored my call, I was hurt but you're here now, and that's all that matters"
"Call?" Katie asked. "Wait, you-" She shakes her head. "You killed-"
"Dear pop" Alistair says. "Yes, you should know I came for you, but killing your familiar, was perfect"
"You killed my grandfather" Katie says. "And you tried kill my family"
"Let's not forget the fun times me and Dean had down under" Alistair replied.
"You bastard!" Dean yells.
"Aw Dean, c'mon we use to be pals" Alistair says and Katie takes a couple of more steps toward him. She want to get close, to look him in the eyes once and for all. "So I hear you've been looking for me, well here I am" Katie heard the sound of chains sliding on the floor toward her, but without taking her eyes from the demon she shot her hand out and sent the chains flying in the other direction.
"Next" Katie said tilting her head. "I hope that wasn't all you had, I mean this is me we're talking about" Katie poked Alistair in the chest. " Girl with the big destiny, that's supposed to be bad news for all you demons"
"Yeah, I doubt dead people have destiny's" Alistair replied before placing his hand inside of Katie's chest. Katie found herself flying back in the street. Katie huffed in annoyance before standing to her feet. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. In. And out.
"Do not forget why you're here" Katie opens her eyes to see Urim in front of her.
"Yeah, all of that went out the window, when that bastard admitted to killing my grandfather" Katie replied.
"No, don't you understand all this is bigger than you, bigger than the death of your grandfather" Urim said. "I am right, you know, so do what it is you're supposed to do to stop this from happening" Katie just nodded and Urim disappeared. Katie took another deep breath before closing her eyes, when she opened them she was back inside the funeral home. She looked down at the dead reaper and saw Alistair with the scythe to the woman's neck as he recites something in Latin. She looks up and finally notices the reaper trap and looks up at the chandelier before turning to Sam and Dean.
"Guys!" Katie yells and looks up. They follow her eyes and know what they have to do. Katie takes a deep breath before running toward Alistair, and with all of her might grabbing him off of the reaper. "You bastard!" Katie punches hard in the face, before letting herself fall through the floor. Alistair hears the shaking of the chandelier and looks up just in time to see it fall on the corner of the trap, and the reaper disappears. He turns to see the reaper unhook the chains holding Sam and Dean.
"Bye-Bye" Dean says as he, Sam and the reaper disappear.
Katie walks down the alley, trying to calm herself down. She let him get away, the demon she's spent so long trying to find, she just let him get away.
"You can't run Dean" Katie hears, and looks up ahead to see Dean and Alistair. Dean backs away as Alistair move towards him. Katie takes some steps forward. "Not from me. I'm inside that angsty little noggin of yours." Katie moves closer, but stops when blue- white lightening strikes Alistair and he vanishes.
"What the hell" Her and Dean say at the same time. He looks down and finally sees Katie.
"Guess again." A voice says and Dean turns to see Castiel behind him. Katie comes closer to stand next to Dean.
"What just happened?" Katie asks.
"What just happened?" Cas repeats " You all just saved a seal. We captured Alastair. Dean, this was a victory."
"Well, no thanks to you." Dean states angrily. Katie looks up at him, before looking back at Castiel.
"What makes you say that?" Castiel asked.
"You were here the whole time?" Dean asked.
"Enough of it." Castiel says looking away.
"Well, thanks for your help with the rock salt." Dean replies.
"Dean, they couldn't get in" Katie says placing her hand on his shoulder trying to calm him down. Dean looks down at her then back to Castiel,
"That script on the funeral home—we couldn't penetrate it." Castiel replied.
"That was angel-proofing?" Dean asks.
"Why do you think I recruited you in the first place?" Castiel and both Katie and Dean looked confused.
"You recruited us?" Dean asked.
"The vision." Katie says. "You sent it to me" Castiel didn't say a word, just looks down. "If you wanted our help, all you had to do was ask"
"Because whatever I ask, you seem to do the exact opposite." Castiel replied and Katie just shook her head.
"So, what now, huh?" Dean asks "The people in this town, they just gonna start dying again?"
"Yes" Castiel says in his normal monotone voice.
"These are good people." Dean argues. He didn't just want these people to just die, not when they all have gotten second chances. " What, you think you can make a few exceptions?"
"To everything there is a season." Castiel says.
"You made an exception for me." Dean replies before turning to Katie. "And her"
"Katie's resurrection, had nothing to do with me or any other angel for that matter" Castiel replied. "But you- you're different" There was a long pause before the reaper from before appears on the other side of Dean.
"Dean, I could really use your help" she says and Castiel disappears. Dean turns to Katie, who's still thinking about what Castiel just said.
"Go, I'll see you on the other side" Katie replies. Dean places a kiss on her forehead, before he and the reaper disappear. Katie turns and runs her hands through her hair. " Are you here!" Katie looks around, and there's no sound. "Show yourself, you've had no problems doing it before!"
"What do you think you're doing?" Katie turned to see Urim.
"I'm calling your father" Katie replied. "I just want to have a little chat" Katie turned away. "Hey, I know you're listening, get your ass down here!" With those last words Katie was sent flying into a brick wall.
"I get you're upset" Urim waved a hand and brought Katie back to her feet. "But you will calm yourself" Katie rose a hand and sent Urim flying to the opposite wall.
"You know I'm getting so sick of all of you manipulating us, telling us what to do" Katie walked over to the angel who lay on the ground in shock at her actions. "We are not your puppets"
"Puppets!" Urim yelled and everything seemed to shake under her roar. "You have no idea the freedoms you and that husband and brother in law of yours have gotten" Urim stood to her feet and stalked toward Katie. "There is so much out there, ready to eat you up and spit you out, and I have been there to stop it from happening"
"Urim" Katie turned to see Castiel behind the angel.
"No, she needs to hear this" Urim replied. "You may have this big destiny, but that doesn't mean you can speak to him, or us in that manner"
"Urim!" Castiel said a little more urgently and Urim instanly straightened up. Katie could visibly see the angel's demeanor change as she turned to the other angel. She dropped her head and disappeared. Castiel walked over to Katie and looked her straight in the eyes.
"Not wearing my husband I see" Katie says. "Thanks for coming" He stepped closer to her and Katie immediately stepped back until her back was against the wall.
"Do not make me regret my decision" He said. "Because that would not bode well for you" And with those word he was gone, leaving Katie to interpret how she would. Katie leaned against the wall and took a deep breath, she closed her eyes and when she opened them she was standing in their motel room.
"What the hell?" Katie said seeing Pamela leaning against Sam's bed, bleeding and not moving.
"What did she say to you?" Dean asks Sam and Sam looks away. Dean just shakes his head before turning down to Katie's unconcious form. "Why isn't she awake?" Katie walks over to her body but stops.
"I knew you guys were gonna be the death of me" Pamela says and Katie looks up.
"Pammy what happened?" Katie asked walking over to her.
"What do you think" Pamela says removing the sunglasses, Katie noticing her eyes normal now.
"I'm sorry" Katie replied. " I didn't mean for this to happen"
"I know sugar tush" Pamela said. "You just do one thing for me, ok" Katie nods. "You kick their asses for me, and don't let all of this crap get you down, he wouldn't have picked you if you couldn't handle it" A familiar man appears next to Pamela. "You must be here for me"
"Hi, I'm Peter" Peter says holding out his hand for her to take it. He turns to Katie and gives her a slight nod.
"Hi Peter" Pamela says before turning back to Katie. "Bye, oh and tell JT I won our bet"
"I'll tell him" Katie replied before Pamela and Peter disappear. Katie turns back to her body to see Dean leaning his forehead against hers. Katie suddenly felt herself being pulled to her body. She takes a deep breath and opens her eyes to see Dean staring down at her. "Hey"
"Hey" Dean says helping Katie up. She looks over at Pamela's motionless form.
"Sorry it took me so long" Katie said not taking her eyes off her friend. "I was saying goodbye" Dean places a kiss to the side of Katie's head and leans his forehead against the side of hers.
After burning Pamela's body Sam, Dean and Katie stopped outside of town and just leaned against the impala in silence.
"So how did you and Pamela meet?" Sam asks Katie.
"She was a friend of JT's" Katie replied. "And I met her, while we were dating, we worked a couple of jobs together"
"And Sugar Tush?" Dean asks.
"Oh that" Katie laughs. "Well we were hunting a ghost in a bakery, and me being very new to the whole hunting thing, got spooked when the ghost jumped out, causing me to fall over on a bag of sugar" Katie smiled. "When I stood, my entire butt was cover with sugar, and from then on those two would call me sugar tush"
"So, what now?" Sam asks.
"I don't know" Dean says. "This was a victory I guess, so we try to stop any more seals from being broken"
"And I have to deal with a reappearing mother" Katie says. "I'm going to have to call Jason"
"What are you going to do?" Dean asked. "She may be able to help"
"I'm just not ready to do the who mother, daughter thing with her" Katie replied. "I guess I'll deal with that bridge when I come to it"
"We should get out of here" Sam says. Katie and Dean just nod before making their way into the impala.
