"I must know." You say stubbornly. Dean looks at Sam. Sam at looks back at Dean. Dean shrugs.
"My brother and I hunt monsters." He began.
"Any story which begins with that has to be fake." You say irritatedly.
"Well this one isn't. There are monsters here, all over Earth. We think your father was demonically possessed. A demon took over his body and made him kill your sister before killing himself."
"Wait, that's your theory? Demonic possession? Are you serious?" You are grinning, but when they aren't, it fades. "Wait, you ARE serious."
"That's what we do. Hunt monsters. Is there any other way to explain what happened? You know your dad pretty well, would he ever have killed your sister, then himself?"
"No." You say quietly, looking at your feet. "But... a demon... that seems a little supernatural..."
"I know. You think we're crazy. But that's the truth."
"Can you kill it?" Dean raises his eyebrows.
"Well, you know, I've told several people this secret in my time, but I can't remember anyone who accepted it so fast and wanted something dead before knowing much about it."
"It killed my family. I want it dead."
"Fair enough. Yeah, we can kill it, and we will." You nod.
"Good. I want a part in this."
"Not a good idea." Sam says, and you detect a hint of urgency in his voice. Like he's lost someone innocent before as part of some Supernatural gig.
"No. We'll salt this room. You stay here where it's safe. We'll kill it."
"It wants me, I'll be bait." You say without hesitation. Dean looks mildly irritated that you aren't getting the message, mildly concerned that you just willingly offered yourself up as demon bait, and mildly impressed that you're that brave and that family-orientated.
"That still isn't a good idea. If it kills you..." Sam starts.
" If it kills me then I get to see my family again in the afterlife. If it kills me then I won't have to bother with school again."
"So THAT'S what this is about. You WANT it to kill you." Dean says, looking much less impressed.
"That's insane." I want to live. I'll see my family no matter what when I DO eventually die. So I'm in no hurry. I'm just saying that if I do end up dying, it's not that much of a big deal to me." You shrug like your life is nothing to you.
"I still don't think offering you as bait is a good idea." Sam says. But the look in Dean's eyes says something different, and you know that pushing the issue might get you into the fight. But then again, maybe it would be better to stay out.
If you insist that you want a part in the gig, go to Chapter Sixteen
If you would rather stay in safety while the brother's go hunt the demon, go to Chapter Fifteen
