Chapter 1
"Cas?" Sam was startled from a fitful sleep. He wasn't sleeping much lately with his brother out there, even by Hunter standards. He tried to grab a few hours every so often, but he was running on more coffee than sleep lately. He would not give up until he found Dean, even if it meant losing much needed sleep.
"We have to go," Cas stated, standing by the foot of Sam's bed.
"Go where?"
"You remember the spell Balthazar did that sent you and Dean into a parallel world?"
"Ugh," Sam ran a hand through his hair and yawned. "You mean the, the Supernatural show thing? Where I was a…Padalesski or something?"
"Yes, that very one."
"Why do we need to go there?" Sam asked as he got out of bed and pulled on a red plaid shirt over his white under shirt.
"There's a young girl who needs our help. Before Metatron was locked away he said something about her, her importance."
"Importance in what?" Sam asked as he buttoned up his shirt and proceeded to roll the sleeves up to just below his elbow.
"That I don't know yet."
"And you trust Metatron?"
"I believe his words about Elle were sincere."
"Elle?" Sam asked, pulling on his boots.
"I've had an angel watching her since Metatron told me of her. Just in case."
"That's how you know she's in danger?"
"I fear someone, something, from this world has made their way into hers and has been watching her as well. And they do not have good intentions. We need to protect her, bring her back here. She'll end up in this world one way or another, according to Metatron."
Sam nodded. "And it would be best if she was with us. We should bring whoever's after her if we can, they might know why she's important."
"I'm thinking the same thing as well."
"Alright, well I know we have the ingredients for the spell around here somewhere. You sure you want to do this? I mean with your stolen grace and everything?"
As if meaning to emphasize Sam's hesitation Cas went into a fit of coughing.
"I must do this. We must do this. For whatever unknown reason we cannot let anyone else get their hands on her," Cas insisted.
~O.o~
Elle was on her way to her car on campus. She'd just come out of her last class for the day, Adolescent Literature. She was excited to get home, tonight was the season premiere of her favorite television show, Supernatural. She was kind of nervous to be honest. She, like many others, had freaked out when Dean's eyes opened in the season finale and were solid black. He was a demon and she did not like it. Sure Dean was hot when he was a bad ass, but a demon? That was different, way different. She'd just unlocked the doors with the clicker and put her book bag in the back seat when hands went around her.
"Don't scream," the male voice said in her ear. "Scream and I'll break something."
Elle's heart was pounding and she wanted to do the exact opposite of what whoever had his arms around her just said. Adrenaline kicked in and she fought back, kicking, hitting, slapping, and punching wherever she could. She realized her blows barely had any impact on her assailant so she stopped when he grabbed a handful of her brown hair and yanked her face up to his. Her eyes widened when his eyes went completely black. In a second they were back to normal but they'd been black long enough. A million thoughts of how impossible his eyes were started to go through her mind when he was hit on the back of the head.
The demon's grip loosened enough for her to get away from him. She was about to take off when she saw Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins wrestling with the man that attacked her. Only, they were dressed like their characters on the show and she was pretty sure they wouldn't be in Georgia, at least not this time of year.
Standing, her feet feeling like they consisted of lead, she watched the scene before her. Her heart continued to pound as she saw the man get out of Cas's grip and punch him hard in the face before quickly turning to Sam and grabbing his arm. Sam let out an agonized yell as the man's other arm gripped his shoulder and pulled. Cas staggered up behind the demon and grabbed him from behind, slapping a set of cuffs on his hands. Elle's vision went as black as that demon's eyes.
~O.o~
Elle woke with a headache and shot up. She was in an unfamiliar bed, in a slightly familiar room that resembled Sam and Dean's rooms in the Men of Letters bunker. Before she could take anything else in the door opened.
"You're up."
She grabbed her glasses off the nightstand where she suspected either Sam or Cas had set them and put them on. She stared at Sam, open-mouthed.
"Um, well first off, I'm not Jared-what's his name," he started, looking a little awkward. "I'm Sam Winchester. I know that where you're from this is all just a TV show. I've been there remember?"
She nodded.
"I have a lot to tell you but first you should eat something."
"So that's…that was Cas with you?" she finally spoke up, her voice sounding a bit off from sleep.
"Yeah. That was Cas. How are you feeling?" Sam asked as he stepped further into the room.
"Like I'm having a very vivid dream. An albeit awesome one, but still, just a dream."
Sam couldn't help but chuckle. "Well, you are definitely not dreaming. Come on. Let me fix you something to eat."
Elle was sitting across from Sam at a table, slowly eating the grilled cheese Sam made for her. They were both quiet as they eyed each other and she took in her surroundings. She was still unsure as to what was going on.
Sam was wary about bringing a complete stranger into the bunker but if Cas had reason to believe Metatron's word that she was important then so did he.
"So, the demon that attacked you last night is in the dungeon," Sam spoke up.
"So that was a demon?"
"Yeah."
She set down her food. "I saw his eyes; they were black for a second. But, I mean, this is crazy."
"Hey," Sam put his hands up. "You've already made me pinch you twice. You're not dreaming."
"But why did it attack me? And if I was in a…parallel world, as you call it, how did you know?"
"Cas."
She bit her lip. "Do you know why it attacked me?"
"That's what we're going to find out."
Elle and Sam looked up as Cas came in to the room. Elle took the angel before her in. She admitted to herself that he didn't look too good, probably due to his stolen grace. 'Man, are his eyes blue' she thought as she stood up to greet him. Her heart was pounding as it had when she first sat in the chair across from Sam.
"Hi, I'm Elle, um thank you for saving me from that…demon." She looked at Sam. "Thank you too. I'm sorry your shoulder was hurt because of me."
"No, no it's okay," Sam said.
Elle looked back at Cas. "You're taller than I expected."
"Uh, you're welcome. And thank you, I think."
Elle hesitated but then threw her arms around Cas. Cas's brow furrowed as he awkwardly hugged her back.
She let go and stepped back a bit. "Sorry, I…just really wanted to do that."
Elle looked at Sam again. "By the way you are most definitely as tall as I expected."
Sam laughed and stood from his seat. "Let's interrogate a demon."
~O.o~
"Why did you go after her?" Cas barked as the demon screamed from the burn of holy water.
"Because, she'll be important."
"Why?" Sam inquired. He'd been careful to keep Elle behind him during the interrogation. Even though the demon was in the devil's trap and chains he didn't want her to get too close and she had no problem staying behind Sam either. When they first walked in he'd flashed his black eyes at her and she froze. It was unnerving and made the hair on the back of her neck stand up.
"She'll be important," the demon repeated.
"In what? To whom?" Cas asked.
"No one knows yet actually. It's been kind of frustrating for those I work for. We just know she'll play a large part, possibly a pivotal part."
"A part in what? Who are you working for?" Sam asked.
The demon chuckled. "Sorry, I can't tell you that."
"You've told us all you know?" Sam asked.
When the demon nodded Sam pulled out an angel blade and cut the demon's vessel's skin.
"I've told you all I know!" it hissed.
Sam and Cas shared a look and then Sam plunged the angel blade into the demon. Elle watched, taking a step back as the demon and his vessel died. She'd seen that a hundred times on the show but to see it in real life was something else entirely.
"I think I'm gonna go lie down," she said.
"You okay?" Sam asked as he turned to look at her.
She pushed her glasses up her nose, "This is just a lot to take in."
Sam nodded in agreement and told her he'd wake her if anything came up.
AN: Well that's it for the first chapter! Also, the OC wears glasses, so shout out to all the ladies reading this fic that wear glasses on a regular basis like me, 'cause I rarely see that in a fic, or book, or movie, or TV show, and so many people wear glasses! Please review!
