I am sooooo sorry for the VERY long wait. School's over for me, I'm working two jobs and everything is upside down so I didn't really have time to write.

CH.11 Live and Let Live

Cain had to admit she did love driving the Impala. The fact that it was making Dean crazy in the backseat did help and Cain liked to mess with him.

''Oops… Sam could you pass me a napkin please.'' Cain put her hotdog back in the box next to her and kept her eyes on the road.

At the sound of her voice Cain saw Dean sit up a little straighter in the rearview mirror, ''What did you drop?'' He was straining his neck to see over the front seat.

''Nothing. Relax Dean. It's just a little Ketchup. Don't move too much you'll hurt yourself.''

''KETCHUP! Clean it!'' Dean was wide eyed and kept glancing at the front seat.

Sam who was always very good with social cues took the opportunity to change the subject.'' So… How exactly do you know Bobby?''

Cain glanced at Sam with a thank-you look. '' He's a family friend.'' After seeing Sam's questioning look she sighed and decided she might as well tell the whole story.

'' Me and my family… well we didn't get along. At least we got along until my 15th birthday. That's when I discovered that my father was a hunter. He and my mom didn't think it was safe for me to know about all of this so they kept it secret. But when I learned about it, it became a passion. My father taught me everything I know. I saw my father as a kind of superhero you know. Then one day when he brought me on a hunt I realised that it was the opposite.''

Cain took a breath and kept her eyes on the road. She was fighting to keep her voice steady.

'' During that hunt… we were after some kind of vengeful spirit. One thing led to another and… my father decided that killing that thing was more important than saving the person it was threatening. He used the victim as bait. The guy died.''

Cain could feel two pair of eyes on her. After a couple of seconds of awkward silence she kept going.

'' My father hunted to get the Earth rid of these things. He didn't care about collateral damage… I hunt to save people and then to get rid of these things. It was never the same after that… I couldn't even be in the same house as him so I left. I was 18 and I went to the first place I knew I would find someone to help me. Bobby's place. He and my dad used to be great friends he visited often. So I stayed there until I could make it on my own.''

She paused and finally took a peek at the rearview mirror. Dean's eyes were serious but she could swear there was something more… sympathy? No it couldn't be…

''I never saw him again. He passed away two years ago and I didn't even get a chance to see him again. I see my mom once in a while. She's actually proud that I kept the family business going.''

She felt a hand on her shoulder. ''I'm sorry.''

''It's okay Sam. That was a long time ago. I'm fine.'' But Sam kept staring.'' I promise you I'm fine.''

'' Are we there yet?'' The voice came from the backseat.

Cain chuckled. '' Almost.''

''Good. Cause if I have to endure 10 more minutes of all this whining I'll shoot myself.''

The atmosphere immediately became lighter. That's how it was with Dean, one minute everything is serious and then the next the chick-flick moment is over.

Cain saw a curve in the road and knew they'd be at Bobby's place in a couple of seconds.

''We're here.''

Okay this chapter was a bit boring but I needed to clarify a little bit of Cain's past, how she became a hunter and why she is the way she is. Stay tuned for more! Oh and, R&R!
