Echos in the Dark

Chapter 18

The Winchesters and angel rushed to get to Daphne in fear that she may run out of time. They took a different route that would be much faster.

-:-

The doctors managed to clean her body but they needed one thing. Blood. Rick walked into the room just in time.

"You know her blood type?" They asked him.

"Uh- no- no. She's not-"

"AB+," a small voice was heard at the door. (I know it says A+ for Jensen, but just play along yeah?)

"Like Uncle Dean's."

"She needs blood or we'll loose her!" One of the women whispered to Rick.

"I- I'm A-positive." Suddenly a loud engine roar was heard outside. Some went to the window to see that a Black Impala drove and stopped outside the house. Out rushed three men out the car.

"Move it Jon Berthnal!" Dean yelled at Shane.

"Who the hell are you?!"

"I said move it!" All men raised their weapons aiming at each other.

"We don't have time for this! Let us pass!" Sam yelled.

"Uncles Dean! Uncle Sam! Uncle Cass! Please help mom!" Ace shouted from the door. The men looked at Ace and pushed through the men.

"Ace where's your mom?!" Ace pinged towards the room and they rushed to it.

"Sammy stay with Ace!" Dean shouted as he and Cass went inside the room filled with people.

"Who the hell are you?" One of the women asked.

"Daph!" Dean rushed to her side and looked at her up and down.

"Are you her brother?"

"Yes! What happened?"

"Are you AB-positive?"

"Yes!"

"Great take off the jacket, she needs blood or we'll loose her!" The same woman said.

"Bella?"

"My names Maggie, your sister is going to be fine."

"Cass!" Cass walked towards the bed and was about to place his hand on her wound when her hand suddenly grabbed his wrist. She was awake.

"Heal me and I'll cut off your hair while you sleep." She groaned.

"Daph!"

"Dean?" She looked over with shock. Dean crouched down to her side.

"I'm here, baby sis, let him heal you."

"No." She whispered in pain. "They can't know." She whispered to him.

"We need blood!" Hershel yelled. Dean looked at his little sister and then to Cass. He sighed and took off his jacket.

"Give her mine." He rolled up his sleeve and held out his arm to them.

"We need room." One of the women said pushing Castiel, Rick, and Shane out the room.

Sam was with Ace trying to calm his nephew and reassure him that his mother will be alright. When he looked over to the room that his sister was in he saw two men and Cass kicked out the room. He looked back to his nephew.

"Uh- Ace stay with your friend. I need to talk with them." He stood up and walked over to them before looking at Cass.

"What happened? Where's Daph and Dean?"

"Dean's inside right now." Sam was confused and pulled Cass away from the other two men.

"Why didn't you heal her?"

"She-" He sighed.

"Did she threaten to cut our hair off while we sleep again?" Cass nodded and then looked back to the two other men who spoke among themselves. Sam looked back as well.

"Who are they?" He asked.

"Apparently from the group she's with." They looked at each other approaching the two.

-:-

"It's fortunate that you arrived here." The old man said to Dean. He looked over to the chubby man who's name was Otis.

"What happened?"

"I was tracking a buck. Bullet went through it. Went clean through."

"You son of a bitch-" Dan stood up about to beat a man when the old man spoke up.

"Calm down son. Fighting won't help her." He said calming down the angered brother.

"The deer slowed the bullet down, which certainly save her life." When Dean heard that he felt relieved.

"But it did not go through clean. It broke up into pieces."

"What- what does that mean?" He asked the old man.

"If I can get the bullet fragments out...and I'm counting six," Dean's body was filled with fear and panic. His baby sister was laying in bed. This wasn't supposed to happen. He was supposed to find her walking and happy.

"I never saw her, not until she was on the ground." Otis said with guilt to own of the woman who looked to be his wife.

"Daph..."

I opened my eyes and looked over to my big brother who held fear in his eyes. "Oh please," I slowly breathed in as it hurt. "You've seen me in worst conditions." I tried to laugh but it hurt like a bitch.
