To Be A Hunter

Chapter 6

Nova went home for about a week then decided to go pay a visit to Bobby.

"Well look at you kid, all grown up." He says as he lets her in.

"Hey Bobby." She walks in puts her hands out then let's them fall, smacking the side of her legs, "Yup, no longer the little girl you once knew."

"So what have you been up to?"

"Well I finished college. Then I uh destroyed the thing that killed my father. Mom still owns the bar. But other than that I haven't been up to much of anything."

"You followed your father's footsteps haven't you?"

"Not exactly, I mean I did till I found what killed him, which was ghoul, but haven't kept at it since then. It did feel good helping someone in need. When I first started I ran into two guys that also know you, and I've known one of them since college."

"And who would that be?"

"Sam and Dean Winchester."

"Son of a Bitch." He said slowly, "I helped raise them two. Good boys."

"Yes they are." She nods, "Me and Sam went to the same college. We sorta had a little something but went our separate ways until we caught up with each other a month or so go again but unfortunately that'll never happen again. Dean told me what happened."

Bobby nodded, "There's something you need to know. Sam's alive, he's different but he's alive."

Her eyes went wide, "Are you fucking kidding me?! He's alive?! Why doesn't Dean know? That's his brother doesn't he deserve to know?"

"I hear you but Dean got out, that's what he promised Sam and we wanted to make sure he gets to live the life he's always wanted. He was forced to grow up quick because of their father. So if Dean knows Sam is alive he won't continue to live the life outside of hunting."

Nova took a deep breath and let it out, "I guess that's understandable."

Bobby contacted Sam and so a little while later he showed up.

"Hey Nova." He says after he came in.

"Sam." She breaths out then wraps him in a hug, "So good to see you're alive. But wait how?"

"I don't know honestly. The last thing I remember is falling into that hole at the cemetery then all of a sudden I was awake in a field."

"Oh damn, that's amazing that you didn't get trapped down there."

"Yeah it is." He agreed with a nod.

"So I found out what killed my father and destroyed it."

"That's awesome Nova." Sam said with no emotion.

"Mhm." She nodded, "So since Dean is out, and no one's told him you're alive, which don't worry I won't tell him because it's not my place, what have you been doing?"

"I met up with a group of hunters. They're family by blood, it's my grandfather, my mothers dad, and some cousins on her side. And well I've been helping them out."

"Oh cool, so you didn't get out of the business. Since I killed that last monster I really haven't done anything else." She shrugs, "Don't know anything about doing that sort of thing, like where else to start, what to look for."

"I can help you learn."

"No Sam." Bobby pipes up.

"Why not?" Both Nova and Sam asks.

"Because you have a normal life Nova. And I know damn well your daddy won't want you to be in this life. And the same with your mother."

"My mom gave me her blessing because she knows I'm an adult and can't stop me from living the life that's in my blood. As for my dad, he got what his wish, I grew up in a normal life but there's people out there that needs our help with this sorta stuff. If there wasn't hunters, people would die."

"Oh Boo hoo, people die, that's part of life. Even with hunters people die, hell hunters die while doing this job. Both your father's are prime examples of that."

"You know what? Screw this, I didn't come here to get a lecture." She stood up, "I'm tired of people telling me what I can and can't do. I know how to take of myself."

"No one's saying you can't take care of yourself Nova. You're a Trader for God's sake." Bobby said.

Nova took a deep breath and let it out, "I know and I'm sorry."

"No need to be sorry just looking out for you."

"I know." She smiles and gives him a hug, "But honestly, the reason I majored in mythology in college is so I could possibly be of help when it came to that sorta stuff. So that's doesn't mean I have to necessary mean I'm in the field per say."

Bobby smirked, "You know, your daddy was right. He had a feeling that's why you majored in that field. I think deep down he knew you'd follow in his footsteps in some way."

"He did?"

"Yup." Bobby nodded.

"Wow he didn't let on that he had any idea."

After a little while they decided to leave Bobby's. Neither Sam nor Nova felt like driving because it was late so they decided to get a hotel room for the night. Instead of getting two different room they went ahead and shared a room.
