AN: Sam procedure as last. Vanessa is mine, nothing else is...unfortunately.
Vanessa was leaning on the hood of the Impala trying to read her Ultimate Spider-man. It might be a different universe, but she loved it. Vanessa did think it was a little strange that Peter Parker and Kitty Pryde were dating. She favored Jubilee more and would have been interested in that instead, but can't have everything. Beside, she was a Jyro fan. Adam came back with two cans of coke and handed her one. They were waiting for Dean and Sam to get their room.
"Kitty and Peter dating?" he asked.
"Don't get me started," Vanessa mumbled, never taking her eyes away from the comic. Dean and Sam quickly came out of the lobby.
"Put the funnies down. Got to tell you something," Dean ordered.
"First off, it's a comic book. Second, who do you think-," Vanessa stared to lecture but Sam cut in, "Dad's here."
"What?"
"He is?" Adam and Vanessa said simultaneously.
"Clerk said a guy with the same last name on the card is here. It has to be him," Dean confirmed.
"What are you doing looking at comics for? Let's go!" Vanessa exclaimed.
Vanessa couldn't wait to see Dad again. Dad, she can remember when she first started calling him that.
Vanessa was only thirteen when she went on her first hunt. They had to do a regular salt and burn on a ghost so it wasn't that big of a deal. John asked Bobby to look after Adam during this, but Dean and Sam wanted to be there. She remembers how Dean and Sam went to dig up the grave while John and her went to the house to save a family from the ghost. John hadn't planned for that to happen. It was suppose to be Dean and Vanessa digging up the bones, while John and Sam move the Walshs out of the house, they were a middle aged couple. But Dean and Sam were closer to the graveyard when Mr. Walsh called completely terrified.
John wanted Vanessa to wait outside, but she refused. Idcus Hermy was his name, former art dealer. A tall, skinny and lanky man that was going bald. He was murdered by his young wife so she could inherit his money. He cherished this portage of a farm that was in the Walshs' living room. They managed to get the couple out safely, but John was then hit by the angered spirit.
When that happened Vanessa yelled out, "DAD!" She then took the iron fire picker by the chimney and swung away. It was enough to hold off the ghost so the boys could burn the remains. Vanessa ran by John's side.
"Dad, are you okay?" No response, "DAD! WAKE UP UP!" she shook violently. A few tears started to stream done her eyes.
"Did you just call me Dad?" he softly said as he regained consciousnesses.
"Umm... I'm sorry. It's just-"
"You don't have to apologize or explain. I like it," He softly smiled. Vanessa embraced him in a hug and started to burst into tears, "I'm not ready for this!"
"It's okay, you did great," he held on to her.
-SWNO
Vanessa shook out of her memory when Sam opened the door. Well, she should have expected him not to be here. There were maps, newspaper clippings, pictures, notes pinned to the walls. There was no space on the walls that didn't have a piece of paper . John's books were on the desk and he managed to accidentally assort junk on the floor and bed. Sam was shocked at the sight, "Whoa!"
Dean went to turn on a light by the bed and picks up a half-eaten hamburger sitting there. Sam, Vanessa, and Adam stepped over a line of salt on the floor. Dean sniffs the burger and flinches away from it, "I don't think he's been here for a couple days at least."
Vanessa got out of ear shot and walked in the bathroom. She's had to go since they arrived at the motel. Vanessa over heard what they were up against. A woman in white. That's why all these "players" were disappearing. By the time she got out of the bathroom it seemed like Dean and Sam made up by calling each other their nicknames.
"Jerk."
"Bitch."
Dean walked right passed Vanessa and into the bathroom to clean off. Adam laid on one of the beds while Sam was by a mirror. She saw him holding a picture and assumed it was of the family before Vanessa met them. She felt a little sad at that thought. They're all in this mess because of the same thing that tore apart their families. If none of that had happened, they wouldn't be here. Who knows were everyone would be. John and Mary being happily married living in Lawrence with Adam. Adam would be going to a normal high school. Dean being Dean, but a lot happier. Sam would be off at college becoming something great. Vanessa's alternate reality was clouded for her. She knew nothing of her family's history. Her culture. Her race. Her origin.
Where she would be is a mystery to her. The bigger one was who was she? The only thing she remembers is that horrible night. That was her only clue.
"Hey, man. I'm starving, I'm gonna grab a little something to eat in that diner down the street. You want guys anything?" Dean asked once he was clean.
Vanessa put down her comic to look at him, "No." Adam shook his head and Sam said No.
"Aframian's buying," he tried to convince. They all shook their heads.
Sam dialed his voice mail right after he left, "Hope you don't mind if I make a quick call?"
"Go ahead," Vanessa went to sit across the room by the window. Adam put his head phones on and listened to his CD player. She just looked out the window only to look at a fence. What a sight.
"What?" Sam asked the phone. Vanessa looks at him, "What about you?" he seemed nervous and then hung up his phone. Sam looked out the front window them turned around, "We need to leave fast!"
"What's wrong?" Adam asked when he took his headphones off.
"Dean's been arrested and we're next if we don't leave now."
Vanessa opened up the window and climbed out with Sam and Adam following her.
Sam dropped Adam and Vanessa off at a diner while he went to talk to Joseph Welch, Constance's husband. Vanessa was about to argue, but then she realized she was hungry. Adam was sitting with her as their burgers arrived. Adam got extra fries.
"How can you a big ass burger and still be hungry for more fries?" Vanessa asked.
"Watch and you'll learn," he smiled. Just then a college boy about Vanessa's age walked up to them, "Um...hi," he spoke to Vanessa. She looked up at him, "Hi," a little confused.
"Can I borrow you're ketchup?" he asked bashfully. Vanessa looked around and saw there wasn't anyone there except a group of boys over by the counter seats watching their friend.
"Couldn't you have gotten a bottle off another table?"
"Okay, I came over here because I thought you seemed like a nice person. So i wanted to know if you want to join my friends and I."
Vanessa raised an eyebrow, then looked at Adam, "Well, I'm kinda spending quality time with my brother right now."
"You're welcome, too," he looked down at Adam, who simply rolled his eyes.
"Sorry, but no thanks."
"Alright then, can I have you're number?"
"I don't have a phone," she lied.
"Okay then. Well it was nice talking to you," he went back to his friends who were to chuckling at him.
"Why didn't you give him you're number? He seemed nice," Adam asked.
"Not my type."
"What is your 'type'?"
"Someone with a brain."
"Do I have a brain?" Adam mocked.
"Shut up and eat your fries, child."
Vanessa's phone started to ring. She walked outside.
"Hello?"
"Hey it's me."
"Ah so the jail bird has been released from his cage. How'd you manage that?"
"Tell you later. Head over to the Welch's old house," Dean ordered.
"And how will we get there?" Vanessa looked in the diner window an saw the boy who asked her out give her a mean look.
"Walk or hot wire a car."
"Okay I'll get Adam and we will WALK over."
Dean hung up. Vanessa got Adam and they headed out. It wasn't that bad of a walk, but their feet were hurting. Night had already fallen so Vanessa was on her toes.
"So do you think Sam will go back to college?" Adam asked. They could see the house up a head.
"I hope so. He has a life with Jessica."
"I thought you loved him?" Vanessa froze up.
"Please tell me it's not that obvious!" she thought.
"Of course I do. He's my brother and I want what's best for him. Even if it means he needs to go away."
Adam nodded. They heard a car speeding. When they both turned around the black car zoomed past them.
"Tell me that wasn't the Impala," Vanessa begged. The Impala came to a stop outside the house.
"It wasn't the Impala?" They began to run. As soon as she heard Sam yelling, she began sprinting over and saw Dean unloading a clip at Constance. Sam sat back up in the car, "I'm taking you home," and drove into the house. Adam caught up.
"Stay here!" Dean ran inside the house to help Sam. Adam was catching his breath still.
"What happened to you?" Vanessa asked.
"I was trying to keep up with you but you left me in the dust," he managed to say. They heard Constance screaming. Vanessa once again sprinted off to see Constance burning up with two children. She turned to see Dean and Sam push a bureau away from themselves. She must have pinned them. Needless to say they were fine. Although Dean only worried about if his car was screwed up. They drove back to Standford so Sam can get ready for his interview.
-SWNO
They pulled up to Sam's apartment. He got out and leaned in the window.
"Call me if you find him?" he asked looking at Dean. Dean just nods.
"And maybe I can meet up with you later, huh?" he asked.
"Yeah, all right," Dean answered. Vanessa smiled.
Sam patted the car door twice and turned away. Dean then leaned toward the passenger door and called to him, "Sam?" Sam turned back to the car.
"You know, we made a hell of a team back there. All of us," Dean looked at Adam and Vanessa.
"What team? You two did all the work," Vanessa thought to herself.
"Yeah." For once Sam actually admitted Dean was right on something that was related to hunting. Maybe they could all be a family again. Dean drove off without another word. Vanessa looked back and saw Sam still standing there. She waved at him and he waved back with a small smile. Vanessa felt her heart speed up. Adam looked at her, "Why are you so happy?"
"I'm just glad that no one left on a bad note," Dean turned around and drove back to in front of the apartment once Sam left.
"What are we doing?" Vanessa asked.
"I just got a bad feeling," Dean didn't look away from the apartment. Then fire suddenly appeared.
"Oh my GOD!" Vanessa yelled.
"Stay here!" Dean bolted out of the car and ran inside. Vanessa jumped out but Adam didn't let her leave anywhere past the car.
Finally she saw Sam and Dean perfectly fine and she calmed down a little, but where was Jessica? Then realization hit her. She didn't make it out.
After the fire, a firetruck is parked outside the apartment, Vanessa could see firemen and police officers keeping back civilians. Dean and Adam are walking back to the car after answering questions for the police. Sam is standing behind the open trunk of the Impala, loading a shotgun. Vanessa is saddened by the seen. Dean looks at the trunk, then at Sam, whose face is drowned in anger. Sam looks up with a sigh and nods. He tosses the shotgun into the trunk.
"We got work to do," he shut the trunk.
