Part 33:

Dean and Kae followed Sam from the alleyway out onto the street. Sam raised his arms, and to Kae it looked like a gesture of surrender. It sure felt like that was what they were doing...even if they had a plan to counteract Lucifer being in Sam's body.

"Alright!" Sam yelled. "We're here, you sons of bitches! Come and get it!"

Three demons came out to meet them.

"Hey guys," Dean greeted. "Is your father home?"

The next thing they knew the demons were dragging them inside the building and into a room that Kae found freezing. She briefly wondered why that was, and then saw Lucifer standing by the window.

"Hey guys," he said calmly, "So nice of you to drop in." He traced his finger through the fog on the window. Kae couldn't see what shape he drew, but in the end she wasn't sure she wanted to know. He turned to face them. "Sorry if it's a bit chilly. Most people think I burn hot. It's actually quite the opposite. Help me understand something, guys. I mean, stomping through my front door is... a tad suicidal, don't you think?"

"We're not here to fight you." Sam said.

Lucifer cocked his head to the side, curious. "No? Then why are you?"

Sam glanced at Kae, who nodded silently.

"We want to say yes."

Lucifer's eyebrows shot up at Sam's statement, and his eyes moved to settle on Kae.

"Excuse me?"

Sam's response was to inhale and close his eyes. Behind him, Dean and Kae, the demons that had brought them in all dropped dead.

Lucifer turned his attention back to Sam. "Chock full of Ovaltine, are we?" he said coolly.

"You heard him," Kae said flatly. "We say yes."

"You're serious."

"Look, Judgment Day's a runaway train We get it now. We just want off."

"Meaning?"

"Deal of the century." Sam answered. "I give you a free ride, but when it's all over, I live, she lives, he lives, you bring our parents back -"

"You let Sam out when...we have sex." Kae added, and Dean looked pointedly at the floor. "You don't touch Dean - ever."

"Okay, can we please drop the telenovela?" Lucifer said exasperatedly. "I know you have the rings."

It was Sam's turn to be surprised, and Kae looked nervously at Dean, who kept his eyes trained on Lucifer, though he did take her hand in his and squeeze it lightly.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Sam tried to be convincing but it was too late. Lucifer knew and they were screwed.

"The Horsemen's rings? The magic keys to my Cage? Ring a bell?" Lucifer scoffed. "Come on, Sam. I've never lied to you. You could at least pay me the same respect." he sighed. "It's okay. I'm not mad." he looked at Kae in what she took as mock pity. "Sorry kiddo. For it to work I gotta be there. No hard feelings." he chuckled. "A wrestling match inside your noggin, Sam..." he looked thoughtful. "I like the idea. Just you and me, one round, no tricks. You win, you jump in the hole. I win... Well, then I win. What do you say, Sam? A fiddle of gold against your soul says I'm better than you."

Sam looked uncertainly at Kae and Dean, then his expression turned determined. He nodded silently, and Kae swallowed the lump in her throat before nodding back at him.

"So he knows," Sam said, turning to Dean. "Doesn't change anything."

"Sam -" Dean tried.

"We don't have any other choice." Kae said quietly.

Dean shook his head. "No."

Sam and Kae both looked at Lucifer.

"Yes," they said simultaneously.

Bright light began to fill the room, so bright that Kae couldn't tell where it was coming from. A strange sensation began to fill her body and she cried out, feeling like something was pulling on her, and pulling hard.

"No." she gasped, realizing what Lucifer was doing. "No! No!"

Dean didn't hear her, or see what was happening; he was too busy shielding his face from the light.

Kae's knees buckled and she crashed to the floor - no, not to the floor - through it.

Son of a bitch!

"Dean!" she screamed, hoping he would hear her, but he didn't.

Before she could do anything, she felt herself slam down onto a wooden floor. Pain flared all over her body - but it didn't seem like anything was broken. Of course not - he wouldn't want her harmed, after all.

She waited until she'd regained control of her breathing to roll onto her side and sit up. She was on the ground floor of what she took to be another building - possibly an old house. A group of people stood motionless in a circle a few feet away from her: men of varying age and a woman - in a prom dress?

What the hell was this? Kae groaned softly and got to her feet. By the time she turned around she had to stop herself from crying out: Lucifer had walked into the room. Seeing him using Sam's body...it horrified her.

He grinned at seeing her discomfort, squatted down so that he was on her level, and reached for a lock of hair, twirling it in his fingers as if admiring the multicolored strands. The grin turned to a smirk as Kae flinched away, making him laugh.

"Honey," he said coldly, "I'm home."

Dean was on the brink of a meltdown as he rejoined Cas and Bobby on the street. Lucifer was in Sam's body and Kae - where had he taken her? It wasn't like Dean was going to stop what they...what they were doing (God the thought made him sick) because it had been Kae's choice, but...

Cas.

He would know where to find her...wouldn't he?

"Where are they?" he said abruptly as they met near a store that had a bunch of televisions in its display window. "Where'd he take her, Cas?"

Cas frowned at him.

"Do you really think I know?" he asked. "Dean, even if I did, would you stop them? Kae made her choice. So did Sam." he paused. "Deep down they both knew this would happen."

"No." Dean felt like he was going to be sick. He headed toward the Impala with Bobby and Cas on his heels. "I gotta - I gotta go."

"You're gonna do something stupid," Bobby rolled his eyes. "You got that look."

Dean fished his keys out of his pocket. "I'm gonna go talk to Sam."

Bobby sighed exasperatedly.

"You just don't give up."

"It's Sam!" snapped Dean.

Cas shook his head. "If you couldn't reach him here, you're certainly not gonna be able to on the battlefield."

Dean shrugged and opened the car door.

"Well if we've already lost, I guess I got nothing to lose, right?"

"I just want you to understand," Cas explained sadly, "- the only thing that you're gonna see out there is Michael killing your brother."

Dean stared at him for a moment, his eyes glassy.

"Well then I ain't gonna let him die alone." he replied, his voice cracking.

He got into the Impala and drove off.

Kae hadn't ever seeen so much blood before. Sure the carnage left over from when Layla and Aiden had been killed had been bad, but this was - she didn't have words.

She'd just seen Lucifer use Sam to kill people from Sam's past - but not before letting Sam out long enough for a conversation. She hadn't heard too much, but then again she was positive she didn't want to know anything about it to begin with.

She felt horrible that Sam had to go through this - it had definitely not panned out the way they'd expected.

The sound of footsteps approaching caused her to look away from the bodies and at the only other person in the room with her: Lucifer. He smiled at her and held out his hand.

"What do you say we take this somewhere less bloody?"

Kae stared silently at his outstretched hand, lower lip trembling. How could she go through this? Lucifer had said he wanted her happiness. He'd said he wanted Sam's happiness.

She was pretty sure Sam was anything but happy right now, so how could she possibly go through with this?

The Cage.

Shove Lucifer in the fucking Cage.

Kae nodded and took his hand.

"Okay."

He smiled and before Kae could do anything, they vanished.

Lucifer and Kae reappeared in a large room that looked like it could have been a large suite in a five star hotel. Maybe it was. Kae didn't really care.

"What do you think?" Lucifer asked her eagerly, clearly trying to impress her.

She looked around the room, her eyes wide. The room had large yellow walls covered in wall paper that had white stars all over it. The bed was a king size, covered in white blankets and sheets already pulled back. Two large pillows lay against the wooden headboard.

"It's nice." she said, and smiled at him. What else could she do? "Really nice."

He nodded, pleased with her response. "Bathroom's through there." he pointed at a room to the left. "I'll give you some time to yourself."

She nodded and headed toward it.

"Okay."

Kae stared at herself in the large mirror that hung over the bathroom sink. In her hands she held a fluffy white bathrobe (who the hell did Lucifer think he was kidding?). She wasn't sure she could do this.

"Kae? Everything alright?" she heard Lucifer call after some time had passed.

She swallowed the lump in her throat and undressed.

"Yeah." she whispered, then cleared her throat and spoke in a normal voice. "Yeah." She took a deep breath and put the robe on. "Be out in a minute."

It actually took her another five minutes before she could actually leave the room. Lucifer was waiting for her on the bed, a towel wrapped around his waist (This is too fucking stupid...cheesy...why...she thought, but forced herself not to say anything). He grinned.

"You look great."

I'm wearing a fucking robe, you jackass. she thought bitterly, but smiled anyway. "Thank you."

His grin softened and he heaved himself up off the mattress before walking over to her. Kae watched him apprehensively until he bent down and kissed her softly on the lips. She let out a soft moan and heard him chuckle as his hands settled on the belt of the robe. She managed to nod, and he untied it.

"Relax," he murmured. "We've got all night, Kaelyn...and I want to make the most of it. Alright?" She nodded. "Okay." he kissed her again, and guided her over to the bed before pushing her down onto it. "Let's get to it then."

The next day, Kae woke up to find Lucifer already awake (well he was a fallen angel, so maybe he didn't need it), and watching her. He didn't look happy.

"What is it?" she asked cautiously, wrapping the sheets around her torso as she sat up.

"You had sex with Dean." he said flatly. "That's what's the matter."

She stared at him incredulously. Better to try and convince him of a lie than to tell the truth.

"I didn't." she said.

"Don't lie to me, Kae." he warned, his tone deadly. "I sensed him."

"Okay that's gross." Kae swung her legs over the side of the bed and stood up, dragging the sheets with her. "I haven't had sex with him."

"You did before you came to Detroit," he said. "That was a day and a half ago."

"I -"

Lucifer rolled his eyes and walked over to her, placing his hand on her belly.

"It's going to be fine," he said coldly. "Sure I'm ahead in schedule, but why wait five years? Why not now?"

Kae looked at him nervously.

"What are you talking about?" she asked.

Lucifer's smiled cruelly at her.

"The moment you kill Dean Winchester."
