Chapter 6
For a short moment the three of them just stared at each other. Finally Alexandria, feeling uncomfortable by the silence, walked over to the table and sat down. She looked at the two hunters knowing that they had something planned out. They both however looked as if they were trying to find a way to give some bad news.
"You guys okay?" she finally asked.
"Yeah, listen, we're going to help you, and we're going to find the demons who killed your family." said Sam.
"But first, we need to leave town and get somewhere safe. We also have a friend we want you to talk to. He'll be able to help." said Dean.
Alexandria looked at Sam and Dean as if she was trying to call their bluff in poker. She knew they were hiding something. All she wanted was the truth.
"What are you not telling me? Who are you guys?.. What am I?" she asked slightly choking on her words.
"We're hunters. We hunt supernatural creatures, like demons, spirits." Sam explained.
Alexandria looked at Sam as if he was crazy, trying to see if he was lying in his eyes.
"Adam and Martha were also hunters, they stopped when they got married." he finished.
"I guess that explains why he knew that chant that killed the demon." she stated.
"The exorcism? Yeah, kind of a job requirement to know at least one. It comes in handy." Dean stated.
Alexandria looked down as if she was thinking very hard. She perked her head up coming to realize what she was trying to figure out.
"Am I the reason that they're dead? Because of my ability? I forced them back into hunting?" She asked slowly becoming more upset with herself. The people she was closest to ended up dead today, and she couldn't help but feel like it was her fault. Dean and Sam gave their best sympathetic look towards her. Sam walked up beside her and tried to comfort her.
"Once someone is a hunter, they never stop being one. This isn't a job you can walk away easily from. We've tried, but no matter what, something pulled us right back in."
Alexandria bowed her head, she knew that was his way of saying that it was her fault, but to not feel bad about it. She soon realized that she was obviously a supernatural creature.
"So you guys hunt evil creatures? You're here to hunt me, aren't you?" she asked, slowly raising her head to the hunters, wondering if they're soon going to try to kill her.
Sam looked at her in disbelief.
"Why would you think that?" he asked.
After receiving a questioning look from Alexandria, she replied,
"You and i both know I'm not normal. I don't even know if I'm even human or not. I killed that man, so I assume you are here to kill me. Isn't that your job?" she said to the younger hunter.
The whole time, Dean stood there. There was something about her that reminded him of Sam. Feeling like a freak, and hating life for it. He hated seeing her upset like this.
"We don't think you're evil." said Sam giving his puppy eyes to her.
Alexandria, looked at Sam in disbelief. She wasn't expecting to hear that above all things.
"We have a theory of what you are, though." Dean said with a smile. The smile, which both Sam and Alexandria found a little creepy, was Dean's was of showing that there was good news.
Alexandria stared in slight enlightenment though, maybe she was finally about to get some answers.
"We think you're an angel." he finished.
Alexandria gave Dean a strange look and replied hesitantly, "Thanks, I think. You're an angel too?"
She had obviously taken what Dean said the wrong way. Dean face-palmed and walked away. Sam chuckled at the mistake and explained to Alexandria.
"We really mean it. There are such things as angels. We believe that you are one."
Alexandria's eyes widen when she realized that the two men were being completely serious. Demons, sure, she had proof, but angels? "These guys must be crazy" she thought.
"Are you serious? That's not possible, there are no such things." she stated looking at the hunters like they were a nut case.
"Hold on. You believe demons are real, we tell you you're an angel and you think we are nut cases?" Dean asked offended by the way she looked at them. To him, it made absolutely no sense.
"I saw the demon's true form. So yeah, I know there are such things as demons. I've never seen an angel or any proof of angels before. Once I see an angel, then I'll believe you." she said with anger slightly building in her voice.
Sam noticed her and Dean exchanging glares at each other. Not wanting to be the next one in town getting his eye's burned out by a pissed of angel, he interrupted, trying to keep the peace.
"Okay, you don't have to believe us, but we really need to go, now."
Dean and Alexandria both agreed and their gazes drifted away from each other. The three gathered their things and left town. They were quiet the whole drive.
Finally after a few hours, they arrived to an abandon barn in the middle of nowhere. When they entered, Alexandria noticed markings all over the floor and walls. The place was only known to Dean. It was where he first met Castiel.
"This place will be safe for now." Dean said.
Alexandria walked over to the lone table near the corner of the otherwise empty barn. Sam walked over to explain to her what would happen.
"We're going to call our friend and tell him to meet here. He'll be able to answer any questions you'll have."
Alexandria nodded her head, she turned looking at Sam who looked like he was praying. She have him a what-the-hell-are-you-doing look. Suddenly she realized that's exactly what he was doing.
"Dear Castiel, we pray you have prayer radio on. We could use your help." prayed Sam.
The three of them waited for something to happen. Dean looked around then let out a slight sigh.
"Maybe you should try, Dean." Sam suggested.
Dean rolled his eyes and started to walk outside the barn.
"Where's he going? And what exactly was that?" She asked in frustration. Sam turned to Alexandria and gave the best answer he could.
"That's how we call him, he has... powers... like you do, so he can hear our call. That, and he has no idea how to work a cell phone properly." Sam stated. "Him and Dean have a more 'profound bond' than I have with the guy, so he'd most likely answer Dean."
She thought about what he said for a quick second. "They're lovers? she asked confused.
"We've all had our suspicions, they just haven't admitted it yet." Sam chuckled.
Alexandria smiled slightly. She liked Sam. She felt a comforting vibe from him. He truly did seem to care. Or maybe it was just the puppy eyes that he always gave.
"So where are we exactly?" she asked.
"I'm pretty sure this is where Dean and Cas first met."
"Cas? Who exactly is he?"
"He's a good friend of ours, has been for a few years. He'll be here soon, and he'll be able to answer all of your questions, I promise." Sam replied hoping that he was right.
Alexandria nodded in agreement and waited for Castiel to get there. In the mean time, Sam tried to make small talk with her to keep her on his good side.
~Meanwhile outside ~
Dean walked just right outside the door. He was slightly upset Castiel didn't show up. He knew Castiel was his only chance to prove to Alexandria what she really was. As Dean started to pray he heard the flutter of wings. He looked up and jumped a little to see Castiel just inches away from his face.
"Hello, Dean." he said with a slight smile.
Dean looked as Castiel as if he was just a little irritated .
"Cas. We've had this talk before..." he started
"Personal space. My apologies, Dean." the angel interrupted. With that, he took a couple of steps back allowing Dean to breathe his own air.
"You showed up just in time." Dean said.
Castiel looked at Dean with confusion.
"What is wrong?" Castiel asked seeing concern in the hunters eyes.
"Sam is in there right now with a girl." Started Dean.
Castiel narrowed his eyes in confusion.
"I never would have taken Sam to have intercourse in a barn." the angel said shocked.
Dean gave Castiel shocked look and replied,
"Not that kinda girl, Cas. We think she's an angel."
Castiel's attention was immediately grabbed by the statement. He looked at Dean waiting for him to elaborate his and Sam's assumption.
"She appeared in town 2 years ago. She has no recollection of her life before. She can heal people and she killed a man by touching him."
Castiel was still surprised by the information Dean was giving him. He tilted his head, unsure what Dean wanted him to do. In the back of his mind, he hoped they brothers weren't wanting him to kill another one of his brothers or sisters. Dean continued,
"She refuses to believe Sam and I when we told her, but maybe we're wrong. We just need you to confirm if we are right or not."
Castiel looked up to Dean.
"I've have not been informed of an angel anywhere near here, but I will talk to her. What is her name?" he asked.
"Alexandria. Ever heard of her?"
Castiel's eyes widen in shock and disbelief. Dean could easily tell that Castiel knew the name too well.
"That's not possible!" Castiel said under his breath as he pushed through Dean and barged through the door.
