Entering her room, she glanced at the window.
Was that man just a hallucination or... Was he real?
"Oh, yeah. He's real alright." A voice said from behind her.
She turned around, but no one was there. She sighed in frustration. "What's up?" Her brother asked as he entered the room.
Lyrisa closed her eyes momentarily. "Nothing. We should go..."
Jack knew her better than anyone, and like most siblings, could tell when something was wrong.
Not ten minutes later, half way to Abigail's house, Jack broke the everlasting silence. "You can tell me, you know."
Lyrisa gazed at him from the passenger seat, she'd been staring at her hands ever since they left her cottage.
"Jack, I had a nightmare last night, OK? That's all." She stated sternly. "But I appreciate that you care." She added softly.
He didn't buy it, but Jack decided not to force it out of her. "Of course I care. You're my sister!" The car stopped at Abi's drive and Jack pulled Lyrisa in and gave her a light noggin.
Abi came outside in time to see Jack release his laughing sister and got in the back seat. "You guys look lively!" She smirked. "What've you been drinking?"
"Nothing yet... But we could go get a coffee after the match... If you wanna?" He stared at her with puppy eyes through the mirror in the front of the jeep.
Lyrisa rolled her eyes. "Are you asking me on a date, Jack?" She was teasing him with a lovely grin on her face. Her yellowish eyes making him want to pick her up and spin her around.
"Maybe..." He was grinning too now.
Lyrisa was laughing, until she felt a sudden chill down her spine. "They're so petty, aren't they? Haven't you got somewhere to be, Lyrisa?" The voice came from the back seat.
Lyrisa knew he was just a hallucination, but she couldn't help but wonder if he was a warning for something...or someone. "Guy's we better get Adam now."
Her voice was dry and Abigail and Jack exchanged worried looks.
Arriving at Adam's place, the three companions noticed a man standing on his porch.
Lyrisa was the first out of the car. "Who are you?" She asked.
She couldn't help but notice that he looked her up and down before he replied. "My name is Dean Winchester. I'm an Aquarius. I enjoy sunsets, long walks on the beach and frisky women. And I did not kill anyone." He winked.
Lyrisa paused for a second. "Winchester? Are you're related to Adam?" She asked.
Dean looked confused, clearly pick up lines usually work for him. "I'm his half brother."
"You're John Winchester's son?" Abigail asked, as she walked up the porch steps, Jack by her side.
At that moment, the front door opened. "Dean, what's go-?" Another man, slightly taller than Dean, but somehow younger came outside. "Who are you?" He asked.
"This is Lyrisa, mostly sweet, curious and occasionally annoying-" Jack started the introductions.
But Lyrisa cut him off. "Hey!" She protested. "This is my brother, Jack, mostly kind with a great sense of humor, and occasionally pisses me off."
Everyone was laughing, even Lyrisa was smiling slightly. "I think I oughta introduce myself, I'm Abigail. Lyrisa's best friend and Jack's... friend."
There was an awkward silence, in which Dean broke. "This is my brother, Sammy-."
"Sam." The taller one corrected him. "Should we go inside, or just leave Adam alone with no clue what's going on?"
So all of them went inside to see Adam lying on the sofa with a look of frustration on his face.
"Adam? What's up?" Jack asked.
Adam looked up and the first thing he saw was Lyrisa, and he stood up and wrapped his arms around her, then kissed her passionately as though he'd never see her again.
Abigail heard Dean whisper to Sam. "How come we don't get chicks like that?"
"Lyrisa's not a chick. She's a nephairy." She stated. "Half angel, half fairy. Of course, Jack is too, as they're twins."
The two brothers looked at Lyrisa and Jack wearily. They'd delt with fairies before.
Lyrisa broke the kiss as she noticed their expressions. "I'm not a monster, OK? Neither is Jack. We just want to live our lives. We didn't chose to be what we are."
Then she remembered that note on her book: destiny can't be changed... It was getting clearer now.
Abi nodded to Sam and Dean, who looked kind of put out. There came that awkward silence again. "Coffee? Anyone?" Adam asked, breaking the silence.
Jack and Abi exchanged cheeky glances before replying. "Yes, please."
Adam waited for the others to answer. Dean took a flask out of his jacket and said. "I'm good."
"No thanks." was sam's reply.
Lyrisa smiled as she accompanied her boyfriend to the kitchen. Shutting the door behind her, Lyrisa spoke. "Why didn't you tell me?"
Adam sighed. "Listen, Lyrisa... I'm sorry. But I didn't want you to worry." He stated.
She tilted her head. "Why would I worry?"
"They're hunters." He replied simply.
"So am I." Lyrisa reminded him.
Adam sighed again as he prepared the coffee. "It's not just that..."
Sam entered the room. "You're a hunter?" He asked Lyrisa. She nodded, then Sam turned to Adam. "Then, does she know?"
"What?" Adam asked innocently.
Sam raised an eyebrow and mouthed. "The Apocalypse."
"What?!"
"Did I mention, she can lip read...?" Adam asked.
The Apocalypse?! Whatever next?!
It took Lyrisa at least half an hour to stop pancaking. The only thing that reassured her was that Sam and Dean said they had an Angel on their side, and she knew, and not because she's part one, but she's heard about their abilities.
But she had never met one, until then. "Sam, Dean, Adam." It greeted, showing no emotion on his face.
He looked over at her and Jack, his blue eyes looked very familiar, the two siblings thought.
"Hi, my name's Abigail." Abi smiled. She held out her hand for him to shake, but he just stood there, staring at her, puzzled. She put it to her side slowly, after realizing that he didn't understand her gesture.
"This Castiel." Dean introduced the Angel.
Lyrisa was confused. She never imagined an Angel wearing trench coat, she'd always pictured them... Bigger? Mightier? Wings? Feathers?
Castiel walked over to Jack then to Lyrisa. "This isn't possible..."
Jack and Lyrisa exchanged looks, "What isn't?"
"Sam, Dean... I have to talk with you."
He strode over to them and as soon as he touched them, they were gone.
