MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I hope you are having, or have had, a lovely Christmas. This chapter is my present to you.
This chapter is a bit all over the place and a little bit of a filler, I'm not entirely happy with it, but it's the best I got at the minute.
Please enjoy :)
Chapter 4.
Utah, Layton.
A Diner.
Turns out, Dean wouldn't let him drive the car, and he had to sit in the back seat during the drive to the diner. So Alec spent all of the journey sulking in the back. His donor and donors brother, neither of which he fully trusted, were basically keeping him hostage, and they couldn't even let him sit up front as compensation!
This damn pie had better be good.
With the Impala parked the three men climb out of the car.
"Just for the record. I don't like either of you" Alec grumbles as they walk into the diner.
Dean rolls his eyes, "Yeah we got that the first three times you said that in the car on the way here. Just shut up, you're getting free food".
Alec sulks as he sits down in the booth. Sam and Dean slide into the booth on the other side. Dean rolls his eyes, man his clone was dramatic. A young, easy on the eye's waitress walks over to the table.
"Hi, I'm Polly" She smiles at all of them, her gaze resting on Alec, "Here are your menus. Would you like to order some drinks?"
"Black coffee would be great Polly" Dean grins, however she only glances at him before returning her look to Alec.
"Water, thank you" Sam says.
"Uh, milk. Thanks" Alec says, not bothering to look up at the waitress. Instead he looks over the menu.
Dean's eyes flicker from the waitress to Alec and back... This guy was supposed to be his clone. Why was he not going for this beautiful women? Especially when she was making the flirty eyes at him.
"I'll be right back with your drinks and to take your orders" she gives Alec one last smile before walking away, with an extra swing on her hips.
"Okay, what the hell is wrong with you?" Dean turns to Alec, "She was into you and you just blanked her. You don't blank hot women like that".
"Dean!" Sam hisses.
Alec just shrugs. He didn't really know why he wasn't interested in the waitress. Usually he would have gone for her, flirted back a little... but at the moment... He didn't really know what was wrong with him, cuz that women was very appealing to the eyes. He just... he just didn't feel like shacking up with her, or anyone at the moment. He guesses it's maybe because he's home sick.
Well, he doesn't really have a home... but Seattle was the only place that was almost like a home to him, and he kinda misses it.
"She just isn't my type" Alec replies.
"What? Hot women aren't your type?" Dean scoffs.
Alec huffs in annoyance, "Leave it will you. It's none of your business".
Dean's eyes narrow slightly at the transgenic, but he doesn't say anymore.
"Here are you're drinks gentleman" Polly smiles as she places their drinks down on the table, "Are you ready to order?"
"I'll have the double bacon burger, with a slice of your apple pie for dessert" Dean says, "He'll have the same".
He points to Alec, who just nods, going with whatever Dean had just ordered for him. It wasn't like he knew much of what was on the menu anyway, since he had been in a secret government facility pretty much his whole life. He'd had a burger before, not a bacon burger, but he enjoyed the burger he had tried, so he was going to trust Dean's judgement in food for the time being.
"The chicken strips and salad, thank you" Sam says.
Polly gives Alec another flirty smile before walking away.
"I don't know a lot about food... but isn't salad basically food people give to small animals, like rabbits?" Alec asks.
Dean smirks, "Yes, yes they do".
"It's not rabbit food" Sam glares at Dean, before turning back to Alec, "It's healthy food. It wont clog up your arteries with grease and fat".
"I'm pretty sure grease and fat is what makes food taste nice though, isn't it?" Alec asks.
"Yep. The more grease the better. We'll die happy, instead of living long lives eating grass" Dean grins.
Sam gives up and shakes his head. He didn't even know why he tried to bother... Alec was Dean. He thought maybe he could get to Alec before Dean could, but it appears that it's just in his nature... or Dean's DNA.
"Ok, so how long do you think it's going to take, till this whole Michael/Lucifer happens?"
"What?" Dean asks.
Alec roles his eyes, "how long is it going to take you to do the whole saving the world thing so I can go?"
"I'm sorry if our trying to save everyone from dying is getting in your way".
"It sucks, about this whole apocalypse thing... but I got enough of my own problems, with out having to add that too. Encase you forgot, there is a dude killing my kind, and he's doing pretty well at it".
"Well, maybe after we deal with the devil, we could help you" Dean says, "We may not be transgenics, or whatever you call yourselves, but we put up a decent fight".
Alec stopped himself from rolling his eyes, they wouldn't stand a chance against White, but he guessed the gesture of offering to help was nice. Or well, Max would have said that... she was rubbing off on him...and not in the good way.
"Thanks for the offer, but no offence, White would cream you guys".
"We managed to knock you out once".
Alec scoffs, "Only because I was drunk and tired...Trust me, you would not win against me or White".
"We'll have to test these abilities you have. See just how super you are".
Sam rolls his eyes at his brother, but says nothing.
"This is beautiful" Alec moans, taking another bite of his pie.
Dean grins as he takes another mouthful of his pie, "It's more then beautiful. It's a master piece".
Sam bitch-faces both of them and shakes his head. It was unbelievable...it was just pie. Sam mentally sighs, he was going to have to deal with two freakin Dean's and one was hard enough as it was.
"We should discuss what our next steps are going to be" Sam says, "we had just finished a hunt before we met you...so maybe we should head down to Bobby's and take some time to train you".
Alec narrows his eyes slightly, "Who's Bobby?"
"Chill. Bobby's a friend, basically family" Dean says.
"To you maybe" Alec mutters, "I don't know this dude".
"Just don't call him dude, and you'll be fine" Sam smiles.
"He'd probably shoot you if you called him dude" Dean smirks.
Alec pauses in mid mouthful and Sam kicks Dean under the table.
"No, he wont shoot you Alec" Sam says, "Dean's just a jerk".
"Bitch" Dean glares at Sam.
"Where's this guy live?"
"South Dakota...It'll take around a 20 hour drive. Once we finish here, we'll pack up the motel and start heading down there. Should be there sometime tomorrow night" Dean says.
Alec nods but says nothing...Sure, it looks like these guys were telling the truth about the supernatural and were buddies with an angel...but that doesn't mean that he had to trust them. They had knocked him out the first time he met them. So, he sure as hell didn't trust this Bobby guy, just because he was a friend.
Sighing, Alec knows he has no choice but to go with them to Bobby's, if he tried to run, they'd just call Wings to find him again.
Suddenly Alec is hit with a thought
Leaning back in his seat slightly, Alec says "You guys remember that you knocked me out and then dragged me to your motel. What did you do with my stuff?"
Dean's eyes widen slightly, "Uh... you had stuff?"
Alec glares, "I haven't been wearing this for two weeks straight".
"...Well oops".
Sam bitch faces Dean, "We'll get you some things once we get to Bobby's. Till then you can borrow some of ours".
Alec mentally groans. This day just keeps getting worse and worse. First he's knocked out. Then when he gets away, he get's knocked out again. While he's knocked out some angel decides to read his mind and tell two strangers his while life story. Now he's basically being held hostage, and all his shit is gone.
Leaning back in his seat, in defeat, Alec says "let's just get this over with".
Dean would say that had been one of the hardest journeys he had every driven. The driving itself, was absolutely fine...it was the back passenger that made the journey hard.
The amount of times he just wanted to stop the car and kick the kid out...
He knew that Alec was being deliberately annoying as a way to get back at him and Sam for essentially kidnapping him.
Before they even got on the road, Alec had wanted to 'freshen up'. He had spent almost an hour in the bathroom, because he was amazed by the fact that the water was hot, which made Dean a little pissed at the fact that the kid hadn't had a warm shower in his life.
Then Dean had to give Alec some of his clothes, because Sam was freakishly tall. So, if Alec didn't already look like his twin, her certainly did now. The shirt, over shirt and jeans had still been slightly big on Alec, but they would do for a few days.
The shower and the outfit change hadn't really been a problem.
No, the problem came when they got in Impala.
The first thing the kid tried to do was rest his feet on the Deans seat, however Alec quickly learned that he should not mess with the Impala in anyway. Next he decided that he needed a pee break every half an hour. Then he would accidently kick the back of Sam's head every time he wanted to lay down in the back. Alec also tried to sing loudly, out of time and horribly out of key to whatever song came on, which really ruined a lot of the drive for Dean because he couldn't listen to his music without Alec joining in, killing the song.
Then they had to stop at a motel for the night. Two beds and one couch... Alec had pitched a fight about being the one who was forced to sleep on the couch just because he was the smallest of all the men. Then he went on a rant about how he didn't even need any sleep, so Dean had threatened to call Cas to knock Alec out if he didn't at least try to sleep.
In the morning they stopped of at a diner for food, and again Alec was a little bit sulky, but was happy to eat whatever Dean ordered for him.
Once they got back on the road Alec did everything he did the day before, all . over . again!
Dean was seriously going to strangle his clone.
"This is where he lives?" Alec looks around at the scrap cars and run down house.
"Yep" Dean says, grabbing his duffle.
Alec just shrugs and follows after him and Sam.
"Bobby" Dean says as he walks in, "We...uh. We're back and we... we got someone you should meet".
Alec stays slightly behind Sam and Dean, not out of fear but so that he has more time to asses the situation. And the situation was an old man, in a wheel chair, wearing a scrappy hat and a beard to match.
He is pulled out of his observations when Dean pulls him forward, so that he was standing in-between his donor and the giant. He could feel Dean's hand on his back, stopping him from moving away. Meaning he was now in the spotlight.
Bobby's eye's zero in on the slightly smaller Dean and he looks the boy up and down.
"What have ya idjits done now" Bobby huffs.
Dean smirks, "I have a clone".
"A clone?"
Sam sighs, "Yeah. We bumped into him a couple of day's ago and when we called Cas, he read his mind and...Dean has a clone".
"And Cas is sure about this?".
"Yeah".
Bobby looks back at the boy and raises an eyebrow, "You got a name or am I supposed to just call you Dean number two?"
"Alec McDowell" Alec says.
Bobby turns to Dean "Right, stews in the kitchen. Once ya stuffed your faces, I want to know just what the in hell is going on".
South Dakota, Sioux Falls.
Bobby's house.
"So, yeah... that about covers Alec" Dean says, taking a drink form his beer. He then turns to Alec, "That's it right?"
Alec was pouting in the corner. That was four people in less then that many days to find out about his life... Have these people never heard of personal and private?
"Yeah. Secret government facility, enhanced super children soldiers, break out, Psy-Ops, years later, Manticore blows up, all free and evil White... that's it".
"But uh there's is something else... Cas said that, cuz the kids my clone...the angels can now use him instead of me to be Michael's bitch if they think they can convince him better".
Sam continues, "So, we figured that, till we found away to stop the apocalypse, it was best that Alec stayed with us. Cas branded his ribs, but if they find out about Alec's existence...well, they'll do whatever they can to get him".
"That an all the other supernatural dicks out there" Dean sighs, "we'll train him up as a hunter. His super powers will help him probably, but he'll live longer with proper training against our kinda stuff".
Bobby turns to Alec and looks at him again. It was more then freaky seeing 19 year old Dean again... yet, Bobby could see some differences in the kid. Though the similarities, both in their appearance and in how their lives were, way outnumbered the differences.
"Now, while we're here" Dean grins, "let's see those super skills of yours".
"You already witnessed some of them from when I kicked both your assess" Alec smirks.
Dean lost his grin and he narrows his eye's slightly.
"If your going to do anything, take it outside" Bobby huffs.
"Alright then" Dean says, "You and me pretty boy. Outside".
"Fine" Alec's eyes light up, "just so you know, I have night vision, so prepare to suck. Again".
"Yeah, bring it kid" Dean stands up and Alec follows him outside.
Sam rolls his eyes and shakes his head.
"How are you and Dean really feeling about this kid?"
"Honestly...I don't know. I mean, it's not the same deal like with Adam. He isn't some kid from a couple of nights with a random women...He's Dean, kind of" Sam struggles to explain his thoughts, "The guy is technically Dean... or Dean's kid... I mean, Alec was basically made from Dean, so he could be considered Dean's kid, though that would be weird. Even for us... This kid is basically my brother and/or nephew... he was just made in a different way to how everyone else is...".
Sam shakes his head. His thoughts and emotions over-riding his brain. He was just completely confused...but he guessed to put it simply... Alec was family by blood and chances are he'd become family by choice eventually.
Bobby decides to change the angle of the subject slightly, "So, the kids staying with you just because of the apocalypse? And what? As soon as it's over you're going to let him go?"
"Dean...he can't see another person die. It wouldn't be his fault, but you know Dean. He'll blame himself anyway" Sam sighs.
"Ya brothers to selfless for his own good".
"Tell me about it".
"I just hope you boys know what yer doing".
"Me too" Sam pauses before huffing out a laugh, "It's crazy, he's so much like Dean...yet...I don't know. He's Dean but, slightly not... Though at the moment till we get him some clothes, he is a mini Dean".
The room is quiet for a moment before Sam pipes up again with a small smile on his face.
"Well...I get the chance of being a big brother again" he frowns for a moment, "a big brother...to a mini Dean..."
Bobby chuckles, "Good luck with that".
They turn their heads when they hear the door open. Dean walks in with a smug Alec at his heels.
"Ok...he's pretty good" Dean shrugs.
Alec glares, "Pretty good? How many times did I have you on your ass in the space of, what was it? 10 minutes?"
Dean shrugs, his cheeks slightly tinged red, "Fine. He's pretty fast and he packs a damn hard punch. He defiantly knows how to fight".
"Well, I was raised in a secret government facility to be a super soldier".
"So at least that cuts back some of what we'll need to teach you" Sam interrupts, "You can fight, so you'll mostly just need to learn about the supernatural".
"We'll need to make sure you can shoot too" Dean adds.
Alec rolls his eyes, "Please, I've been using every type of weapon since I could walk".
"Well we'll see just how good you are once you've learnt the knowledge. Then we'll just double check your all good with the physical and gun stuff" Dean says.
Alec smirks, "fine, I have a high IQ. I'll be finished with this cute little training stuff within the week".
"For now yer idjits, get some sleep" Bobby shakes his head at the banter as he wheels out of the room.
"Bobby's right. We'll start the training in the morning. All I want to do is get some sleep" Sam yawns.
The three men stand up, and Dean turns to Alec.
"Once again, you better try and sleep, or I'm calling Cas" Dean points Alec with a stern look before walking out of the room.
"Or I'm calling Cas" Alec mocks as he walks after Sam and Dean, "If you want to see Cas, you don't have to use me as an excuse".
Dean raises his eyebrow, "What?"
Alec smirks, "Well, he is your angel, isn't he?"
He quickly jogs up the starts to avoid Dean hitting him, with a smirking Sam following him up. Leaving an un-amused Dean at the bottom of the stairs.
Like I said at the begin, this chapter doesn't really have a lot in it. It was just a filler.
I hope you liked it, though it's okay if you didn't, cuz I'm not 100 per cent happy with it.
Anyway please fav, follow and review (Criticism is welcome. Anyway I can make my story better for you, please let me know).
Thanks for reading :)
