Reunion of family 3

Katie's POV
as I rubbed my eyes in weariness and say "no she never said anything but after that she disappeared, and I wondered if I was ever gonna see you again then I hear this voice say "don't cry kiddo" and I look beside me to see Bobby-" "whoa, wait a minute Bobby was there?" Dean asked, cutting me off. "yeah" I say smiling a little "he gave me this'' I continued pulling out the necklace from my shirt collar around my neck "he said that anyone can use the necklace to escape any situation, but it can only be used once. He also told me to tell you two idjits don't do anything stupid" I explained "that sounds like something Bobby would say" Dean scoffed. Cass bent down to his knees and examined the necklace and muttered "so that's where it has been for all these years'' I looked at him curiously "what do you mean?". He got off his knees and still looking at me said "I mean this was an old piece of angel magic it was lost centuries ago and now seeing it in person is astonishing," I look at Cass with funny expression and said "oh, I didn't know that," I look down at to pendant and back to Castiel "I promise to keep it safe" I assure to him "I know you will" he said in a smile. I slowly tried to get to my feet to go to the library as I held Dean's hand tightly while Sam held me on the other side but suddenly I felt a sharp pain on the back of my head and I sat back down. I put my hand to my forehead "you good?" Sam asked, "yeah I just feel dizzy" but the pain was getting worse. I put both of my hands around my head "ah!" I winced, "Katie, you ok?" Dean asked, holding onto me as I buried my face into his chest, "what is going on?" Jack asked "I don't know, I have a stabbing pain in my head aaaahhhh!" I yelled before collapsing back on the bed holding my head curled into a ball as they all tried to calm me down. "Katie, look at me, look at me" Sam repeated worriedly but before I could respond all went black.

Once I finally came to, I looked up to see them all looking at me worried "did I black out again?" I asked "uh yeah, but are you sure you're ok?" Dean asked raising me off the bed so I could sit up "yeah I'm fine at least I think so" I replied curious as Cass walked back to me and raised his hand over my forehead and a strange glow emitted from his hand for a minute then slowly fade away, he backed away from me again, looked at the others "she's fine, just an after effect of Rowena's spell" he explained I look over to Jack to see his emotion relax and exhale in relief "you had us worried" he said sitting at the foot of the bed looking back at me "I'm sorry for making you guys worry this was all my fault, but thanks for being here for me I really appreciate it" I said looking at my feet "it's ok, we know it's not your fault, Rowena is the one to blame" Sam continued, "and hey you're family we stick together" Dean replied keeping his arms around me.

"so do you have anything on the piece of wood with that symbol on it" I asked looking at Sam "yeah we do actually, we're thinking that it is the goddess of suicide," I shoot a strange expression to him and studdered "who dobie wha?" Sam looked away for a minute and chuckled "well she was a goddess who liked to induce people to die by their own hand" he explained "so why is she suddenly convincing people to off themselves now?" I asked "that we don't know yet but at least we have a lead" Sam explained "Well I guess we better get looking, Guys can you give me a hand?" I asked "yeah" Dean held out his hand I grip it tightly as he did the same back while the others stood around me cautiously I stumbled to my feet and carefully walked to the library and once I pasted the door frame to the library I see in the corner of my eye I a picture of the goddess "wait, I've heard of her, Ixtab meaning the woman of the rope, I read about her at the town library" I say gently letting go of Dean's hand "then why didn't you tell us before?" Cass asked I spun around to him with a little annoyed "my thoughts were all over the place" Cass looked back at me and shrugged his shoulders in acceptance of my explanation "anyway Ixtab was one of the major gods the Mayans worshiped and believed that if one sacrificed themselves they would go to heaven instead of going to the underworld" they all look at me shocked and speechless

"what? I like to brush up on my ancient lore and mythology" Dean looked at me surprised "how could I forget that you are like the girl version of Sam" he joked with a funny grin. I shot a sly stare back at Dean and gave a small punch to his arm "I'm a Winchester so what else is new and for your information I act more like you Dean, I'm just smart enough to look up the information like Sam" I said with a smirk and walked to the table. I could hear the others try not to laugh at my sarcastic come back as Dean looked over speechless holding his sore arm. Jack walked over to Sam "is she always like that?" He asked "no not really, it's just when Dean annoys her" "I can hear you guys, but Sam you're right" I said back at them, sat down and pulled the book closer and flipped through the pages.

As the morning turned into the afternoon I leaned back in my chair and sighed "So were there any other murders than the one at the music shop?" Cass looked at Sam and Dean then to me "umm yeah there was." he started before my phone went off and checked the contact to see it was Peter "Sorry I gotta take this" I said cutting off Cass mid sentence walking to the kitchen and answered "hey tiger what's up?" I asked but hearing nothing only silent crying "Peter is everything ok?" I asked concerned "he's gone" he finally managed through tears sniffing "what do you mean he's gone? is Mark ok?" I panicked "He hanged himself Kat he's dead" he said through tears then hung up and at that moment my heart broke. I walked back to the boys and sat down frozen in shock, my face started to get hot and tears began to build "what's wrong?" Jack asked curiously. I nod my head "it's nothing" I mumbled under my breath "I sense it has to do with the case?" Cass said in a curious yet sad tone. I looked up at them, wiped away tears with my sleeve and finally said "I just got off the phone with my friend Peter and..." I stopped and sniffed again wiping away more tears "Um... His Uncle hanged himself..." I stuttered as tears fell faster and sniffed "I'm sorry" wiping away more tears "it's ok" Sam told me I nodded my head and took a deep breath "he had recently been diagnosed with stage two liver cancer and only made a few more months to live". I sobbed before fully breaking down, covering my mouth with my hand as I cried.

"oh Katie I am so sorry" Jack said getting up and walking around to me. I got up from my seat and wrapped my arms around him squeezing tightly as he rubbed my back "I didn't even get to say goodbye". I sniffed sobbing into Jack's shirt letting go and sitting back down. "I guess that's what you wanted to tell me, isn't it?" I asked as they all nodded there heads "we were so close when me and peter where kids, I just can't believe he's gone" I sobbed "hey it's ok, he's in a better place now, no pain, no suffering" Dean said to me with a sincere voice it was quiet for a minute paddling my shoulder squeezing a little "you're right, he is probably up there living his best memory," I sniffed wiping a stray tear "you know he would always treat me like his own I was like his tinker bell because I knew how to fix some of the stuff in the shop" I sighed with a chuckle looking at the floor. All was quiet and soon I realized something. I leaped from my chair and said "what a minute, I think I know what is going on" "What do you mean?" Sam asked as I walked around to the table, took a book and skimmed the pages before stopping and dropped it in front of them. "She's targeting people that are going through a hard time, like the first victim he was having money troubles and Mark he... you know already" I said as they all looked at me curious then Jack shoot up and said "she's right, while me and her were looking through John Butlers things I found a repossession notice" and as I quickly rushed grabbing my jacket "and she saw that as a motive for him to die and I think I know who the next victim is," I said from the top of the steps "come on, we got to get to Nora's before it's to late" I demanded. They all jumped out of their chairs and to the garage hopped in the impala and zoomed down the street. 

"So why are we going to Nora's?" Dean asked keeping his eyes on the road "well she's recently having a hard time making ends meet and doing the best she can but is struggling to pay the bills" I explained "that makes sense, but how do we kill her?" Sam asked. I rolled my eyes and sighed "I see why Crowley calls you moose" Sam turned his head to the window muttering something "anyway I read that she can be killed by a bronze blade or an angel blade like yours Cass" I continued looking over to him motioning his sleeve "that's easy we got some in the trunk" Dean explained. Once we finally got there we quickly parked and hopped out of the car and to the back to get the gear "Here" Sam said handing me a blade "no thanks I've got one" I pointed to my boot "alright let's go kill us a goddess" Dean said shutting the trunk. I burst through the door of the cafe "Kate, what are you doing here?" She asked a little worried. I quickly walked over to her as the rest came in and started to seal the place "Nora you have to listen to me but you are in danger" her face was in surprise and said "what do you mean?" "it's hard to explain but go to the back and away from anything that can be used as a weapon ok" she nodded her head and ran over to an empty closet and hid inside I run back over to the boy's "ok so Nora is safe" "good, now where is Ixtab?".
