Chapter One

"Sam! Ashton!" Dean Winchester shouted from the other side of the room. His shirt was bloody. The jinn's dead body was at his feet. Sam hurried to get himself loose from his chair and then went to straight to me.

"He's alive." Sam responded holding my head up as he checked my pulse. I lay motionless in the chair that I was tied to. He picked me up; his arms under my knees and my head rested against his chest. I was unresponsive to anything Sam was telling me. I did manage to hear the worry in his voice.

Dean saw how lifeless I was in his brother's arm. "Damn it. There should be jinn antidote in the truck. Hurry Sammy!" Sam to carried me to the Impala, as Dean checked the area one last time. They evacuated the empty warehouse, leaving no trace that we were ever there.

I was injected with the antidote as soon as Sam got me situated in the back of the Impala. I lay on my back across the back seats. The liquid was slowly taking affect through out my body. All I could feel was numbness at first as I was coming back to conciseness. My head was hurting like hell. But I managed a moan to let the guys know I was alive.

When we pulled into this little town just outside of Little Rock, Arkansas, it was late at night. I had finally come to my senses when Dean got a call from Bobby. He had a new job for us, knowing that were we close to the state line. It wasn't even an hour and we were already heading to a new case.

And that's how it works most of the time. Once we ended one job, it was straight onto the next. The three of us had just finished that job in Oklahoma with the jinn. Well mostly it was Sam and Dean who did all the work. I messed up and got caught and almost died.

As much as Sam and Dean liked to keep me away from the danger as much as possible, I just couldn't just stand around. But I guess that is what older brothers do. Well the term "brothers" isn't exactly true. See I am not at all related to Sam and Dean. I didn't even know who those two were a couple of years ago. They just popped into my life. And I'm sure hell glad they did.

My real family was murdered. A demon chose my family as it's plaything and it killed my mom and little sister and brother right in front of me. I was half dead myself when Sam and Dean found me. I was only seventeen then.

For three years now they were my family, them along with Bobby Singer. Unlike the three of them, I haven't known about monsters until I met the Winchesters. And I suppose it can get overwhelming at times. But I choose this lifestyle with them. I had no one else to go and they took me in.

Driving into this little town of Merk, Arkansas was quite. Neither Sam nor Dean had said a word about this new job. And I was worn out still. I suppose I wasn't too interested to ask about it. I excepted when Dean stopped the Impala, that we'd be at the motel already. I saw flashing red and blue lights from outside my window.

"What's going on?" I groaned. Even with blurred vision, I could already see a group of people on the other side of the street. Sam and Dean were out of the car as I jolted from my slouched position for my door handle.

"No. You're staying in here." Dean pointed to me through the back window. I sat back into the seat, watching as Sam and Dean walked up to the group of people. I waited until they were out of sight of the car and slipped out. My body was still waking up due to the past few hours laying in the back seat.
