"Hey hold up, Marge!"
She turned to the duo."Yeah, boys? Make it quick. I gotta case."
Sam hesitated but finally said, "Why don't you come on a case with us? I mean its probably a good idea since, ah, your um..."
"Young, defenceless, in over my head... Dude, I've heard it all. I may be a kid but I know what I'm doing." It was the same with every hunter she met. They all wanted to be her knights in shining armour. That dream died a long time ago: no one was ever gonna save her.
The brothers stared at her outburst, wondering what was going on in her mind. Finally, they surrendered and Dean said,"Look, we just wanna watch your back. From what I see, you have no one but yourself in your life. Here's our numbers, just in case you need backup or maybe wanna hang. Maybe we can even help find out some answers about your parents, huh?"
She looked up and saw the look in the brothers' eyes. Auntie Mae gave me that look. Maybe they do care.
Margie took the piece of paper from Dean's hand and asked, "Why do you care about a kid you just met, a teenager? Why do you wanna help me?"
"Because," Sam said as she gazed toward him."We know what it's like, to seem like you have nobody in this world."
"So wadda ya say, huh? Wanna go help us kick monster butt?" Dean says with a mischievous smile.
Giving the brothers a smile of her own, "Sure! Why not? Just let me do this one case. It's just a little grocery run. I promise I'll call if I need backup."
Smiling, both brothers looked at each other nodding in agreement.
Margie headed for her car, waving farewell. "Cool! See ya later, Winchester's!"she said, driving off.
Dean and Sam got in the impala, letting the conversation sink in.
"I'm not even sure I want to know what happened to that girl. If she grew up like us, then she's probably as messed up as us."
Sam looked at his brother, nodding in agreement. "Dude, I know how she feels. What do you think ran through my head when I left? I mean it wasn't rainbows and lollipops for us either."
"I just don't understand them disowning their own kid," Dean said shaking his head." I mean, if her mom was doing some shady stuff, then maybe. But wanting a normal life,that's cold, even if it's impossible. "
Driving off, the brothers said nothing with only filling the silence with music.
And there's the last part of Edge of Seventeen.
