Hey guys. Thanks for the reviews, favorites, and follows! I wasn't sure anyone would even want to read! Soo I'm not sure if my chapter and story plays along EXACTLY with the original Supernatural storyline. Hope you enjoy.
Gracie awoke with a start. Feeling the cement underneath her fingertips, she drags her nails across the surface. She stands up shakily and leans against the wall. Her memories slowly come flowing back to her.
I'm alone. Completely alone.
Holding a hand to her head, tears form in her eyes. She brushes soft strands of hair out of her eyes along with the tears.
She pushes off of the brick wall and wraps the large dark hoodie around herself. It belonged to Ryder. She snatched it up in her hasty take-off to out-run her fate.
Stepping out of the dim alley, the light shined in her eyes. Her stomach growled loudly.
Oh crap am I hungry.
Grace glances over and sees a vintage looking diner. Perfection.
She steps quickly over to the diner and opens the large metal doors. She looks around in the diner as the door swish closed. It's an average 50's coney island restaurant. Checkered floor and speckled linoleum counters.
Grace sits down in a booth off to the right side of the restaurant. She rummages in her pocket and finds about $50. She sighs at amount. It won't last her long.
The waitress comes by with a menu and Gracie orders a coffee and a bowl of fruit. She really couldn't eat much after the journey she had. After running from her Uncle and cousin, she took a bus from Detroit to Columbus, Ohio. Once her stop passed, she kept going for a while. She ended up in Upper Arlington and walker till she hit Morrow County. A small town from the looks of it and the perfect place to crash and have a meal.
Looking up she sees a mostly empty diner with only an old man sitting by himself and a couple. They were in front of her with the man facing towards her and the woman facing him.
She looks up at the man and gasps. I..it's the guy! The totally hot dude with the luscious hair of wonder!
Light blue eyes bulging, she blinks rapidly at the stranger. Suddenly, a sharp glow emits from her eyes causing the man to look over. His dark haired companion looks behind her at what he's staring at.
A screech blows out from Grace's lips as she catches sight of the woman's face as her eyes go back to normal.
The companion's eyes glare over at Grace as she rises from her booth. She sashays over to Grace and leans in close. Grace crab walks backward to the corner of the booth, her heart beating rapidly.
"What are you?" The woman hisses above her.
"I-I don't know what you mean…uh ma'am," Gracie shudders at the monster before her, "I could be asking you the same."
Grace peeks out less than an inch to see the man behind the creature with wide eyes. God, he's tall. His eyebrows raise at her question and he crosses his arms.
"Come on, Ruby. She's obviously a scared young girl. Remember being one of those?" The man seems to show some wariness of her, but sympathy too.
"Girl. I asked you a question. Don't make me ask again," she jeers at her, grabbing her by the cheeks, her long nails digging into her face enough to cause blood.
"Lady! I'm getting really sick of people grabbing my face! I'm just a runaway girl from Michigan," Grace yells at the woman supposedly named after a gem. A gem she is not.
Sighing, the man grabs Ruby roughly by the arm, freeing Grace's face and says firmly, "We don't have time for this. Let her go. You're scaring her. We could have seen anything."
Ruby stands up straight and flashes the man a glare.
"Sam, you and I both know that wasn't just anything. She's not human. Look at her face. There were cuts from my nails not 30 seconds ago and they're already gone."
Sam's eyes widen. He shoves around Ruby and looks down at Gracie, bending his knees to Gracie's eye level.
"Hey. I'm Sam," He says with kind eyes and pats his hand to his chest, "And that over there is Ruby," he gestures to the monster, "What's your name?"
"I..uh I'm Grace," she says, sticking out her hand to shake his hand.
He glances down at her hand, smiling. He shakes her hand and a shock goes through him and her.
"Whoa." They both say simultaneously. Sam shuffles backward a step. Gracie gulps at the reaction. Now they're really gonna kill me.
Sam stands up fully and looks over her attire. "You have no place to go, Grace?"
"Sam! What are you doing?" Ruby whips him around and gives Grace a death stare. Grace sticks her tongue out at Ruby. Well, I really have nothing else to lose. Real mature. I know, self.
Sam runs a hand through his hair and exhales. "Ruby. She might know how to get Dean back. She could have something. Anything. I'm really getting desperate here."
Ruby looks up at him and huffs. "Fine. Let's bring her back to the motel and see what we can get out of her. I'm going to go hit up some contacts down under."
With one last glare at Grace, she grabs Sam by the jaw and gives him a harsh kiss on the lips. Sam's eyes widen and he blushes fiercely. Ruby then bites his bottom lip and walks out the door.
Sam clears his throat and then reaches behind himself and pulls out his wallet. He walks over to his original table and throws down some bills then marches over to Gracie and throws some more bills on hers.
"Sorry about that. Listen. I know Ruby can be scary, but I think you could help me. Are you willing to talk? I can tell Ruby to leave if she's a problem," Sam says to her with pleading hazel eyes.
They bore into Grace and she just nods up at them. I have to find out why he infected my dreams. Where's the other man?
"Cool. I'll show you the way," Sam holds a hand out to her and then quickly retracts, remembering before.
Gracie steps out of the booth and plays with the bottom trim of Ryder's hoodie. She then notices the substantial height difference between her and Sam. Damn, he's built. She looks up at him and he glances back, eyes locked. Hazel and light blue clash at one another. Gracie looks away fast and the heat fizzles. Sam blinks to himself, looking like a confused lost puppy.
