Ruby Winchester

Chapter Fourteen

Ruby was outside smoking as she watched the sunrise. Despite Dean's wishes, she didn't sleep, she couldn't. She was pissed that she had let her fear control her like that.

Five hours was long enough, Ruby had vampires to kill. She wasn't too far from where she parked so she walked to her motorcycle. Getting on she knew Sam and Dean would realize she was gone soon.

Ruby sped off towards the forest, Brian's parents had already been missing for too long. Ruby parked by the trailhead and pulled out her machete. She began walking into the forest, she knew this forest well as she grew up playing in it.

Ruby found the old abandoned barn, she was pretty sure that was the nest. Ruby walked towards the door as she heard a car back at the trailhead. She smirked, they were getting much better at finding her.

Ruby kicked open the barn door and yelled out "Honey I'm home!" Alerting every Vamp.

She saw a pen-like structure with people still alive inside and strolled over toward it, "Oh my god it's Ruby Winchester!" One of the people yelled.

"Winchester? Kill her!" The leader vamp yelled.

Ruby broke the door to the pen open "Everyone run, I'll cover you" Ruby then turned around and beheaded a vamp behind her.

They started running while Ruby fought the Vamps. Sam and Dean saw the people running out of the barn and ran inside. Ruby was surrounded by 13 Vamps, with 2 dead already.

"Ruby!" Dean yelled.

"Hey, boys!" Ruby yelled, kicking a vamp away from her.

"More Winchesters!" The leader yelled.

"Ruby hold on we're coming!" Sam called right as a vamp bit into Ruby's neck.

The vamp froze as soon as her blood entered his mouth, "Nasty right?" Ruby said with a grin before pushing the vamp off her and killing it.

"What are you!" A vamp yelled backing away from Ruby.

"She's our sister dick!" Dean said, cutting off its head.

"Why did you think walking into a vamp nest alone was a good idea!" Dean yelled after all the vamps were dead.

"Cause that's what I've always done." Ruby said with confusion "Why are you mad about this?"

Dean just pulled Ruby into a hug "because you shouldn't have to do everything alone anymore"

Sam joins the hug "You have us now Ruby"

Ruby relaxed into the hug, she was finally accepted. Dean smiled as he held Ruby in his arms and looked at Sam. At that moment they both had an unspoken Agreement, they would do anything to keep her safe.

"Let's get out of this Town Ruby" Dean said, breaking the hug.

"Not yet, there is one thing I need to do first," Ruby said sadly.

"Lead the way Ruby" Sam said watching her.

***

Ruby kneeled in front of the grave with a heavy heart. Sam and Dean stood back watching Ruby as she stared silently at the Tombstone. The Tombstone read "Tommy Winter, Beloved Son" Ruby held back her tears, she made a promise after all.

"Hey, Tommy," Ruby said with a shaky voice.

The wind blew through the graveyard as Ruby felt her heart break all over again. She wished he would respond, she hoped he could hear her. Ruby would do almost anything to have Tommy stand in front of her one more time.

"I really miss you," she said as her voice cracked "I always told you to drive safe you idiot"

Sam hated seeing this, it reminded him of how he was with Jess. Dean put a hand on Sam's shoulder as he looked at Ruby. Losing someone was hard, her brothers knew this all too well.

"I hope wherever you are, you're happy," Ruby said before standing up and turning to her brothers "let's go"

***

A younger hunter pulled his Silver blade out of a Werewolf. His black hair was all messy from the fight, and his tired green eyes looked at the bloody silver. He cleaned his blade off and walked towards his Green Plymouth Roadrunner.

He opened the trunk and put the blade in its spot with a sigh. Pulling out a cigarette he lit it, he didn't even know why he smoked anymore or when he started. He looked out at the sunset and smiled sadly.

"God I miss her," he said with a chuckle before putting out his cigarette. "Onto the next hunt"

He got into his car and turned on his music. Smiling as AC/DC Thunderstruck came on, it wasn't always his favorite song. Someone special made it his, sometimes he could still hear her singing along to it. He drove off towards his next hunt listening to the memory of the woman he loved Singing.
