Part 2:
Kae blinked slowly. She'd never felt this weak before - it was strange; she couldn't even teleport away.
She tried to focus on her weapon.
"Give me my gun." she said hoarsely,
He simply smirked and held it out of her reach. "Why would I do that?"
"Because you would want your death to be quick and painless." she said simply. "I can snap your neck if you like...strangle you with my bare hands. Trust me...I can make it ten times worse."
He snorted. "Highly doubt that, darlin'."
She frowned, not understanding what that meant - until she looked up at the ceiling; the fuckers had spraypainted a Devil's Trap there. Of course, she could leave it, but the damn thing had weakened her considerably.
She looked back at Sam and Dean...and then noticed the man from earlier - Castiel - standing in a corner of the motel room.
"What do you guys want with me?" she asked after a few moments of awkward silence.
"I know what you are," Castiel answered, "and so do they." he jerked his head at the Winchesters. "We require your assistance with a case."
Kae's eyes shifted from him to Sam. "The one with the vic who scratched her brains out?"
He nodded.
"Yeah."
"I don't understand why -"
"We know what you are." Dean interrupted tersely. "He told us." He nodded at Castiel. "Apparently you've been on Zachariah's radar for over a year. Why is that?"
"None of your fucking business." she retorted. "So you know I'm a cambion - big deal. Don't see how that'll help you solve this case."
"We discovered the source of the disturbances in town," Castiel told her. "It's a nine year old boy by the name of Jesse Turner. He's a cambion like you."
Kae's eyes widened at that. "I - what?"
"I said -"
"Cas no offense, but we'll take it from here." Sam said quickly. He looked at Kae uncertainly. "Look, two people are dead, Kaelyn -"
"What?"
Sam sighed. "The other vic was accidentally electrocuted by a joybuzzer."
Kae bit her lip and tried to process what they were telling her - if that was true, it seemed to her that Jesse seemed like he had no control over his powers - she wasn't even sure he knew what he really was.
"Reality warping." she muttered finally, and then looked at the floor. "Chances are this kid doesn't even know what he is. I did the same thing without knowing when I was his age."
"How'd you stop?" asked Dean.
She shrugged. "Mom told me what I was - what happened to her. We moved away, and since I couldn't get rid of them, just learned to control 'em."
"Mmm."
"I'm not going to kill him."
Cas's head jerked up at that. "What?"
Kae glared at him. "You heard me, Castiel. I'm not the tool of angels for their dirty work. Make sure you tell Zach and Anna that the next time you see them." She tried to shove past them to leave the motel room, but an invisible force shoved her back onto the bed. "Do you really want to challenge me?"
"You'll lose," he replied. "Angels are stronger than you."
"Cas c'mon - let her up. She wants to leave it's no skin off of our nose." Sam reasoned. He turned to Dean. "We can find some other way to stop Jesse."
"There is no other solution!" Cas snapped.
"You're not killing him." Kae snapped back.
"He could destroy Heaven with just a thought if he wanted to!"
"So could I!" Kae shouted, "the difference is, I know it's wrong! I know that what I am is an abomination! It's why I try to balance both sides!" She took a deep breath and glared at Cas. "It's not my fault you bastards are so fucking mechanical that you can't understand - even things like me - like Jesse if I can convince him - we're not all hell bent on destroying you!" she jerked her head over to look at Sam. "Give me the address."
"Sam -" Dean started, but Kae interrupted him.
"You two wanted my help, so here - I'm helping. Sam give me the address now."
Sam looked at Dean, then Cas, then at Kae. Then he let out a long sigh and grabbed one of the generic motel notepads laying on the table. He scribbled down the address quickly and handed it to Kae.
When she looked around again, Cas was gone.
"Damn it!" she screamed.
"Car." Dean said abruptly. "Let's go."
"We are never going shopping again. I spent twice my budget!"
Kae snorted as she grabbed their bags out of the back seat of her car. "That could've been avoided if you hadn't decided to spend two hours over in the shoe department at Macy's, Mom."
On the other side of the car, Max laughed as she tried to help her daughter pick up the other bags. It was then she saw a black duffel bag. Kae had told her that it was her gym bag.
"Honey, shouldn't you wash your gym clothes? It's been in here for a month."
"Mom, it's fine. It has my clean clothes for the next time I go." Kae eyed the bag nervously; in reality it had everything she had on those wraiths that had killed Layla and Aiden two years ago. It had her silver knives, and her gun. "Mom -" she protested when Max opened the bag and pulled out one of the knives.
"Kaelyn Marie Thomas what the hell is this?!"
Kae groaned.
"What does it look like, Mom?"
"Don't you get sarcastic with me, Kae," Max spit out as she slammed the car door on her side shut. "You're still looking into what killed Aiden and Layla aren't you?!" Kae sighed, shut the car doors on her side of the car and locked it before heading for the house."Don't walk away from me!"
"Fine!" Kae stopped halfway to the front door and rounded on her mother. "I know what killed them! I'm ready to hunt the sons of bitches down and destroy them!"
Max folded her arms over her chest. "This isn't your fight, Kaelyn!"
"Nope it wasn't, but you know what? I'm making it my fight! Aid and Lay - they deserve some kind of justice! The cops still think it was a break in!"
"It was!"
Kae's eyes narrowed. "Can you live with telling yourself that, Mom? Can you live with denying anything supernatural exists?"
"I'm not denying anything! The things that killed Aiden and Layla - they could kill you too, Kae." Max's voice turned soft, and like she might start crying. "I can't lose you too, honey. It would kill me."
Kae took a deep breath. "Mom, whether you like it or not, I will leave home eventually and become a hunter. I will find the wraiths that killed my brother and sister. You can't stop me."
She turned and went to unlock the front door before storming off into the house.
Kae felt like she couldn't breathe as she, Sam and Dean rushed up the front steps of the Turner house. As Sam fumbled for his lock pick kit, and Dean prepared to kick the door in, she lost patience.
"See you two inside." she snapped, and vanished on the spot. She reappeared in the living room of the house.
"W-Who are you?" a frightened voice asked.
She turned slowly until she saw the boy standing in the corner of the room, between a lamp and a desk.
Jesse.
"I'm not going to hurt you." she said softly, pity forming in her stomach as she noted his frightened expression. "I promise." she hesitated and took a few steps forward, holding her hand out to him. "Can we talk? It's really important."
At that moment, the front door opened with a loud bang and within seconds, they were joined by Sam and Dean.
"We're looking for a guy." she said quickly before Dean could open his mouth. "He wears a trench coat -"
Jesse pointed at the ground with a shaky finger. Dean, Sam and Kae followed his gaze and Kae gasped.
It was Cas alright - as an action figure.
Fuck.
"Is he your friend?"
Kae could've laughed at the question, but given the seriousness of the situation she tried to keep it at bay.
"I don't get along well with angels, Jesse." she replied.
He looked at her with interest. "He's an angel?"
She nodded and sat down next to him. "Yeah."
Jesse looked back at the action figure, now resting on the fireplace mantle where Dean had placed it.
"I did that." he said slowly. "How did I do that?"
Kae looked over at Sam and Dean, and when Sam nodded, she took a deep breath and turned to Jesse.
"I can do the same thing," she said softly. "Jesse -"
Suddenly an invisible force threw her up, right into the ceiling.
"Kae!" yelled Sam, but before he or Dean could do anything, she fell back to the floor in a crumpled heap and didn't move. Another force slammed Dean into the wall and pinned him there. The same thing happened to Sam.
A blonde woman walked into the room, her eyes black.
"Hi Jesse," she said sweetly before glancing at Kae. "Hmm. So you have a sister. Forgot about that. Well when she comes 'round we'll see about getting her to join up with us, huh?" her eyes flicked back to Dean and Sam.
"She means demons, Jesse!" Dean groaned. The woman turned and lifted her hand, forming it into a fist and Dean cried out in pain.
"S-Stop it."
The demon looked over at Kae, who was getting slowly to her feet.
"Leave them alone," she said fiercely. "and get the fuck out of here."
"Is that any way to talk to your father?" the demon asked casually.
Kae's eyes flashed and suddenly the woman was being slammed into the wall opposite Sam and Dean, who both promptly fell to the ground as the demon's grip broke. Kae stared at the woman in surprise. Apparently the Devil's Trap hadn't weakened her enough. She turned her attention to Jesse.
"Listen to me, Jesse. That thing is not your father, okay? It's not mine. What it is, is a liar. And maybe these two lied to you too," she jerked her head at Sam and Dean. "I'm assuming they told you they were FBI agents?" He nodded. "Thought so. FBI Agents, press reporters, health inspectors - they're all covers people like them - like me - use. We're hunters. We kill evil things like that thing that's inside her."
She took a deep breath and continued. "Whatever promises it makes you, whatever stories she tells won't mean a damn thing."
"But what am I?" he asked desperately. "What does it want?!"
She took a deep breath. "You're part demon...like me. Technical term is 'cambion'. And yes, you're powerful, I'm sure that bastard wouldn't hesitate to tell you that; even more powerful than me. What they want, what demons like that want, is for you to get angry. They want you to destroy, understand? "
"But I don't want to!" he cried angrily.
"Good." This time Sam spoke, and Kae, Dean and Jesse looked at him. "Then you can make the right choice, okay?"
"Jesse -" The demon gasped, "Jesse she lied - she's lying -"
Jesse looked over at her coldly. "Get out of her."
There was a loud roaring noise as a funnel of black smoke errupted from the woman's mouth and flew up the fireplace. Kae released control and the woman fell to the floor unconscious. She looked over at Sam.
"Who is she?" she asked.
Sam sighed.
"Jesse's biological mother, Julia."
Kae suddenly felt sick to her stomach. "I uh...I need some air."
She bolted for the front door.
It seemed like it took ages for the Winchesters, plus a fully regrown Cas to find her outside the house, throwing up in the grass.
"Kae?" Sam said quietly, placing a hand on her back. "Kae, it's Sam Winchester."
"I know." Kae breathed heavily, trying to ignore the stench of vomit on the lawn as she struggled to her feet, batting Sam's hand away. "Jesse?"
Dean sighed. "Gone. We thought he was gonna come with us...but he vanished. Found a note in his room to his parents telling them he had to leave."
"Oh." Kae exhaled and stood upright. She tried to keep calm. "No use tracking him then...he can hide himself pretty damn well if he wants to."
Cas nodded at that. "Which makes me question why it was so easy to find you, Kaelyn."
"It's not that obvious?" she asked tiredly. "Cas, I don't use my powers unless I need to. I don't think it's exactly a secret that I never wanted to be part demon anyway. Look..." she glanced at Sam and Dean. "Can you two give me a lift back to my car? I need to get out of this town. Now."
"Who says you have to split?"
She stared at Sam as if he'd grown an extra head at the suggestion, and she wasn't the only one. Dean was staring at his brother like he'd lost his mind.
"You can't be serious."
"Thanks, but no thanks." Kae said flatly. "I'd rather work alone."
"But -"
"Sam. No. I'm not gettin' in the way of your shit so there's no need for you to get in the way of mine, okay?" she glanced at Dean. "So about that lift - we cool?"
Dean nodded.
"Yeah...we're cool. Let's go."
But when they got back to the bar where Cas had stopped Anna from killing Kae, they found Kae's old Taurus looked like it had exploded.
"No." gasped Kae, nearly falling out of the Impala as she tried to jump out when it pulled into the parking lot. "No!" She ended up tucking and rolling onto the pavement, got to her feet, and ran before stopping a few feet short of her burning car.
"Son of a bitch." Dean threw the car into park and he and Sam rushed to join her. "What the hell did this?"
Kae turned after a moment and looked at him. She looked infuriated.
"Demons."
What'd y'all think? Constructive criticism accepted - just no flames please!
