I kept my distance as I continued to follow this Colby character, especially after he said he was taking me to my big brother. What big brother? I couldn't explain it, I feel like I was able to process being told I'm the Devil's kid better than being aware of said big brother. The giant blue moon that looms over the Domain kept getting bigger and bigger; could it get any larger?

"You don't believe me, do you?" Colby let out in a chuckle. "You will when you see him, I promise. Don't let him scare you either. He's not so bad once you get to know him."

"Is he the Chosen One?" I wondered. A part of me is hoping he wasn't.

"In regards to what?" Colby asked back, sticking his hands into the pockets of the tan camo shorts he wore. I could tell past his physical face that he was a demon, but he gave off a different vibe than other demons I've met.

"Never mind," I shook my head at his response. "Are you sure we're actually going somewhere? It's so dark here and I haven't seen anything except for you, that moon and the barrier I crossed to get to this side."

"Yes we're actually going somewhere," Colby said. "Now about that Chosen One. Did someone say your brother was the Chosen One?"

"He didn't-" I stopped, biting my lip. I felt a weird but sudden urge to protect Chuck's identity.

Colby looked at me, blinking his blue eyes curiously. "You can tell me," he urged. "I promise, you can talk to me about anything."

"That's the last thing I need to hear right now," I scoffed. "I'm here to hide, not talk."

"Why hide?" Colby wondered.

"Well it's like Crowley said I suppose; I'm seeking shelter here to hide from my crazy ex-boyfriend." I requoted the unusual Scottish demon from earlier.

"Crowley?" Colby repeated.

"I guess he's the ruler of Hell now." I said with a shrug. This makes Colby stop for the first time.

"What about your mother?"

How much does he know about me? I asked myself in shock. "She was killed." I admitted.

Colby sighed. "That's hard to hear. However, you'll definitely be safe here from your ex," he assured. "I don't think many folks know about this place."

I nodded. "That's what Mel implied." I remembered, even though I wanted to ask Colby how he knew so much.

"Who?" Okay, maybe he doesn't know everything.

"One of the demons I came here with that Coy killed."

"Is that who I messed up? Coy?" Colby guessed with an attractive grin. It was his curly hair that was reeling me in.

"Yeah," I confirmed. "Thank you again for that."

"Absolutely." Colby nodded. "So Mel knew about here, huh? They must have been around when this place was made."

"You weren't?" I found that sort of interesting.

"Nah, I didn't get put here until a long time after." Colby admitted.

"You were put here?" I slightly widened my bright green eyes. "By who?"

Colby looked... sad for a brief moment. "I imagine the same one who put your brother here."

"Am I supposed to know or something?" I asked hastily.

"Huh? Oh, sorry. It was God." Colby admitted.

I don't think my eyes could widen any more. "Why did he do that?"

"I won't speak for your brother, but for me however... maybe one day I'll tell you. If you really plan on sticking around, then you'll be here for many, many days."

"I see," I said in a low voice. He didn't sound so chirpy and outgoing anymore and it was slightly creeping me out.

"By the way, did anyone tell you that there's no going back through that barrier?" Colby then asked, as I also noticed that the blue moon was suddenly farther away than before. What's going on?

"Mel did," I replied, scratching my head only to feel something clumpy. I pull out what ends up being some mud, probably from surviving my house getting blown up and I woke up in a muddied crater. I realize I must look awful and very dirty. "Weird question, but is it possible to shower in Hell?"

"Sure," Colby said. "On this side of the barrier we can manipulate the space and do anything we want."

I narrowed my eyes. "Is that why the moon suddenly grew smaller? Are you doing that?"

Colby opened his mouth, but another voice replied for him in the sound of a deep but calm echo. "No, little sister. That was me."

I yelped in fear just slightly as his voice crept through me. Colby started laughing. "You're gonna make her wet herself-"

"I will hurt you," I warned him.

"Go ahead, it'll be the most fun I've had in a long time." Colby opened his arms out to me and it just confused the hell out of me. "Lynn, meet your big brother."

What?! I immediately turned to where the scary voice came from and matched it to a face finally. He was tall like Dean and Cas (not giant like Sam) but he definitely had the most muscle out of them all. His hair was incredibly long and darker than mine. He looked pretty pale with the exception of his eyes; they're blue like Colby's but very dark and scary looking.

"You're really my brother?" I spoke to him, gulping.

He nodded, taking a step towards me in the almost-darkness we were in. "And you need a bath. What happened to you?"

I sighed. "My house blew up."

"Was it your crazy ex?" Colby assumed.

I shook my head. "That wasn't him. He would never try to kill me."

"Then why is he crazy?" Colby asked as my 'brother' snapped his fingers, causing the blue moon to appear right above us. A moment later a house appeared behind him. Now he turned to look at the house before he turned back to me.

"That is what houses look like today, right?"

I blinked and looked at the house again. It sure did look... normal. It appeared to a brick home with a brown front door and two windows on both sides. "It seems average enough." I told him.

"Very well, this is where we will be for now." My brother decided.

"We?" I repeated.

Colby playfully slapped my back. "You crossed to this side! You're with us now."

I pulled away from him. "I don't want to be. I just want to hide and be left alone."

"Hey," Colby said softly. "I was just trying to be funny, I'm sorry if I upset you."

I shook my head. "You didn't. I don't think I can trust any guy right now." Maybe Castiel is the only exception.

Colby nodded. "How bad did your ex mess you up?"

My brother raises an eye at us over my answer. "He killed my family and tried to put me in a coma."

Then my brother suddenly turned his attention directly behind me, or maybe the direction Colby and I came from. "How many demons did you come here with?"

"Three, but they're all dead." I answered.

"One is alive," he announced, starting to walk in the direction he was looking. I glance at Colby confusingly.

"It's definitely not Coy, you saw me take care of him." He reminded me. "But we should follow him."

"Okay," I sighed deeply. Colby and I ended up following my brother all the way back to the barrier that went on for who knows how far on both sides. "How does he know one's alive?" I asked Colby in a whisper.

He was amused at my attempts to keep my brother from hearing me. "This Domain was made for him. He knows when someone's here."

To my surprise, there was a survivor of Coy's deceit - Melgreth. They were part of what they called The Lake's Guard, which was dedicated to me from what they said. "Mel!" I called out in surprise.

She looked thoroughly pleased to see me, smiling. "Lady Lynn. I'm glad Coy didn't get you."

Colby raised his head. "I took care of him, and I won't let anyone touch her."

"Lady, I-" Mel started, but stopped when she saw my brother step up to her on our side of the barrier - she had yet to cross over to our side. "Daimon?" She nearly choked at the sight of him.

"That really you, Mel?" He asked her, looking down on her. That's when I realized how small Mel was. She was as short as me, a whopping 5'3. The body she was wearing was a middle-aged woman with brown hair that went down to her shoulders and had a gray touch. Her eyes were brown and dark.

Daimon puts his hand up on the barrier, watching Mel place hers up over his (even though they cannot touch) on her side. "How did you survive, Mel?" I interrupted their moment.

"Oh, faking my death is easy," Mel admitted, smiling at Daimon. "We learned from the best, remember?"

To add to my growing confusion Daimon replies, "I don't want to remember." As he pulls his hand back down to his side. Remember what, exactly?

Mel sighed, looking back at me. "My Lady, what would you like me to do?" She asked me.

Daimon now appeared surprised. "Mel, you looked after her?"

"Only while she was down here," Mel said. "Things... didn't go as Lilith planned."

"Where is Mother, anyway?" Daimon questioned. "She has not been here in a while."

Lilith? Mother? So we share a demon parent at least. What about Lucifer? I have so many questions, I'm almost annoyed by it all.

Mel sighed. "She died for her part in releasing your father."

That answers that. I should just be a little more patient.

"And they were all afraid it was going to be me that did it," Daimon says in response to Lilith's demise. "Especially if it had to mean her death. I couldn't do that to Mother."

For how Dean and Sam talked about Lilith to me, it was strange seeing this guy act like he cared for her. Colby put his hand up close to his face to clear his throat obnoxiously, reminding them that we were still here.

Mel nodded. "My Lady? Your command?"

"You have to stop calling me that." I requested, not realizing that I literally gave her an order.

"Very well... Lynn," she said through a painful grunt. Daimon shook his head and stepped back from the barrier.

"What do you want to do, Mel?" I asked her. "What exactly were you doing before I came here?"

"I continued to follow Lilith's command even after Michael took you. Once Crowley-"

"Michael?" Daimon repeated rudely, immediately looking at me with an unusual stare, but I noticed it wasn't unusual at all. I recognized it. He wanted answers, just like me.

Mel nodded once more. "I told you a lot didn't go as planned. As I was saying, once Crowley took over we went into hiding because he started killing any demons who were still loyal to Lady- sorry, Lynn."

"Why didn't you hide on Earth?" Daimon wondered quietly but eerily.

Mel shook her head this time. "Earth is not the same as it was when you were last walking up there. Besides, Crowley hasn't learned all the nooks and crannies of Hell yet, so there were many places for us to hide for a while."

"Can she hide here with me? With us?" I looked at Colby and then Daimon. "Mel?"

She looked around in the darkness tiredly. "I suppose I would be safer here, especially if I cross over to you guys."

Daimon took a few steps back. "Mel, you would really do it?"

"Of course. I live for you and Lynn," Mel calmly reminded him as she made the plunge to our side. For a moment she looked back before she turned and smiled at us all. "I never imagined I'd see the both of you at the same time." She admitted. "It's very strange."

"Dai," Colby let up.

"I know," Daimon seemed to understand, snapping his fingers like he did earlier, only now he zapped us all back to the brick house under the blue moon. "I made sure there was a-" he stopped. "What is it again?"

"It's called a restroom these days," Colby reminded him.

"Right, that." Daimon said right at me. He really wanted me to clean myself up, huh? Maybe I smelled bad. Can you blame me after the day I've had?

"Thank you," I said to him as nicely as I could, leading the way through the brown front door. It was almost as dark in here as it was outside, although there were many black and white candles scattered about, but no modern lighting was in sight. There were a few more windows all around the living room that let the blue moonlight come in fully on the left side.

As soon as we were all inside, Daimon shut the door and turned back only to be grabbed by the black shirt he wore and yanked down to eye level by Mel. Colby couldn't help but bust out laughing at how easily she did it.

"Stay still so I can check you over," she almost yelled at him. "It's been centuries, but I'm still your guardiao."

"Has it really been centuries?" Daimon inquired.

"Truly. Time still moves ever so fast down here though compared to up there." Mel told him.

A mildly startling realization befell me. Mel mentioned Daimon had been on Earth before. Had Mel been his protector while he was there, like Teivel was mine? If Lilith was involved, it would make sense that it would be a demon guardian.

As for me, I got put with a double Nephilim who imprinted on me. Thanks so much, Michael. He deserves to be in that Cage for ruining my life and who knows what else. "I wasn't alone up there, Mel," I told her as she literally looked over Daimon entirely. "It's just that my guardiao turned into my crazy ex." I admitted, praying internally that I can trust these guys.

"Dude, no way!" Colby said dramatically. "You've got me so intrigued about this guy, Lynn. I have to know now. Who is he? You said he killed your family and tried to put you in a coma? And that he would never actually kill you?"

Daimon and Mel both froze in unison freakishly, and instantly looked at us. "My Lady," Mel said so strictly I gulped. "What was your guardiao's name?"

I bit my lip harshly on accident. "Shit," I rubbed my sore lip with my finger. "Sorry. He's a Nephilim named Teivel."

"Oh dear," Mel said in acute horror.

"No," Daimon said in a way that made me grow fearful. It was a pure mixture of denial and shock. "No, no you did not say that name. Any name but that."

I can't believe this. Teivel knew I had a big brother locked up in a separate plane in Hell. He knew more about me than he ever let on, that lying little-

Colby frowned at me. "Teivel is your crazy ex? Tried to make you sleep forever? He's famous for that."

"I'm going to be sick." I blurted out.

Mel made an attempt to comfort an angrier and angrier looking Daimon, but he harshly pushed her hand off him. "Who woke that bastard up?" He asked me in a terrifying voice.

For once, I know the answer. "Michael."

Mel frowned. "It makes sense. It makes a lot of sense actually."

Daimon disappears. "Oh dear," Mel repeated, this time in sadness. "I can see he hasn't changed a bit."

"He'll be back after he chills out," Colby announced.

"Oh, you sweet little boy," Mel said in a chuckle. "I know Daimon better than he knows himself. I have known him since he came into existence over nine hundred Earth years ago."

I'm pretty sure I finally made myself famous, famous for fainting all the damn time.
