Not What We Seem Chapter 4
It's me again! lol umm this might be seeming a bit Dean hating but i promise i'll bring it back! Really!
As the group of vampires slowly approached them, Dean noticed there was something different about this nest. The light seemed to refract off their skin, shattering into millions of rainbows around them.
"That's new."
"What do you think they want?"
"To invite us to their next tea party. What do you think Sammy?"
To be honest, Dean didn't know why they were coming and this strange turn of events was starting to worry him.
"Please lower your weapons, we don't mean any harm."
A mid thirties looking, blond vampire appeared in the brother's line of vision with one who looked in his late teens. As if normal vampires weren't bad enough, Dean thought to himself, this one was probably a moody emo vampire. Great. Dean pretended to consider their request before answering sarcastically.
"Yeah, sure. Then you can come round to our house later and we'll braid each other's hair and share secrets."
Dean noticed the younger one looking at Sam like he was trying to work out what his blood would taste like.
"Hey you! Back off from him!"
The older one, Blondie, Dean decided; started to speak again.
"We aren't here to hurt anyone. We don't drink from humans."
"How do you explain all the deaths then" came Dean's defiant reply "About two months back?"
He noticed the two vampires share a meaningful glance before murmuring something that sounded like Volturi? Suddenly something moved into Dean's peripheral vision and swung his crossbow to point at the flash of white he had just seen.
"It's a trap Sam!"
********
Edward was only vaguely aware of the latest situation as he crawled through the mess that was Sam's mind. He realised that Sam was willing to listen to their pleas, and was unhappy with his brother for rushing into this. Just about to tune out of the hunter's mind the strength of Sam's next thought sent Edward reeling.
"No Dean!"
Edward came out of Sam's head, blinking as he tried to rid himself of the hunter's lingering thoughts. Staring desperately at the situation unfolding in front of him, Edward focused on Dean's thoughts instead, as a last attempt to find the hunters weaknesses. As soon as he tuned in Edward knew. Every thought of Dean's was something along the lines of protecting hi brother. He wasn't thinking about anything else, not even the imminent danger he was in, just pure love for his brother.
Looking up, Edward noticed with horror that Dean was slowly loosening his grip on the arrow, ready to send it on its deadly journey to Rosalie's heart. Hearing Emmett's thoughts before he saw him Edward knew that if Emmett tried to stop Dean it would end in both of them being killed. He couldn't let that happen. Emmett began running towards Dean. What was obviously milliseconds felt like hours to Edward as he watched the older hunter turn and raise his crossbow at the blur that was Emmett. Hoping this would work Edward screamed
"Go for Sam! Dean won't do anything if you've got him!"
As soon as the words spilt out of his mouth the teenage vampire felt hot shame exploding out of his heart at exploiting the obviously strong bond between the two brothers, but it was the only thing Edward could think of. He just hoped they would understand that.
