Jo + Dean = Elizabeth

Chapter Nine

My head is spinning. I'm this guy's daughter? That's impossible.

"Whoa, wait. What? You can't be my dad," I say.

Dean simply looks at me. "That's what I thought, too. But Cas usually isn't wrong about these kinds of things."

"Who's that?"

"He's an angel."

I'm out. I start running to my car shouting "You guys are crazy!"

I make it to my car and look back only to see that they haven't moved. They're simply watching me. I unlock my car, crank it up, and leave as fast as my car will let me.

When I arrive at my house I go straight up to my room. I try to relax but I can't sit still.

I hear a knock at my door and I almost jump out of my skin. My aunt opens the door walks in and I mentally sigh in relief.

"Hey hon- what's wrong?" she asks as she takes in my frazzled state.

"Nothing." I say a bit too quickly.

"Elizabeth Rose Harvelle. You know I can't stand it when you lie to me. Now answer my question."

I sigh. "It's really nothing. These two guys showed up and killed this other guy. Then one of them claims to be my dad. It's crazy, right?" I try for a half-hearted chuckle.

All the color drains out of Kaitlin's face.

"Did you happen to catch their names?" she asks in a dead serious tone.

"Uh. Sam and Dean."

"What did they look like?

"Kaitlin, why are you getting so worked up over this? It's obvious that they're crazy."

"Just answer the question!" she snaps.

"The one guy- Sam- was pretty tall with greenish-blue eyes, shoulder length brown hair with a bit of gray in it, and he was wearing a plaid shirt with a jacket over it. The other one- Dean- was a bit shorter with emerald green eyes, short dark brown hair with a bit of gray in it, and he was wearing a red shirt with a jacket over it. Also, there was something else that was weird. They guy that they killed called me Elizabeth Winchester."

"Elizabeth," Kaitlin says in a tone that scared me, "I have something to tell you."

Before she could say anything else there was a knock downstairs.

* * *

Kaitlin slowly turns around and goes downstairs to open the door,almost as if she knows who is at the door and she's dreading it. So of course, I follow her. When we reach the door, she opens it and reveals the two guys from earlier, and I immediately back up a step.

"What are you doing here?" I ask.

They simply ignore me and Dean fixes his eyes on Kaitlin.

"Kaitlin. It's been a while." he says.

"Yes," she says slowly, "yes it has. Why are you here, Winchester?"

Winchester?

"You know exactly why."

She shakes her head. "You can't."

"You know just as well as I do that they are starting to come for her, and it's just a matter of time before they get her."

"I can't let you. You know Jo wouldn't have wanted this for her."

Wait. My mother knew him? I think.

Sam finally speaks up. "Can we please come inside to discuss this?"

Kaitlin turns to look at me and reluctantly nods. "Yes."

We walk to the living room and all take a seat.

"Can someone please tell me what's going on?" I ask to break the uncomfortable silence that we had been sitting in for a few minutes.

"Do you want to tell her, or should I?" Dean addresses Kaitlin.

She sighs. "I will. She deserves to be told from someone she actually knows." she adds harshly.

She turns to me. "Liz, Dean is in fact your father. He and your mother got together for a night, and she happened to get pregnant. Obviously, she didn't tell him. And for a good reason." This part was directed coldly at Dean.

"That reason," she continued, "is because Dean, and Sam as well, is a Hunter."

"Big deal," I interrupt. "Lots of people go hunting."

"That's true. But he doesn't hunt... normal creatures. He hunts the supernatural. Vampires, Werewolves, Shapeshifters. Those kinds of creatures."

The room becomes quiet and tense for a few minutes until I break the silence with a laugh.

"That's a good one, Kaitlin. Really, it's one of your better pranks. And you two," I address Sam and Dean, "you guys are good keeping up the façade for this long. And I must say, the whole scene with you two killing that guy, that was really spectacular."

I laugh again until I notice that their faces are still dead serious.

"Oh come on, you guys can't be serious." I say incredulous, but they continue to stare at me.

"Okay guys," I tell them with loads of sarcasm in my voice, "if you can give me some sort of proof to this ridiculous claim, I'll believe you."

Dean looks at Sam, and he nods. "Cas, can you pop in for a minute?"

I'm about to ask him what exactly was supposed to happen when a man wearing a trenchcoat suddenly appears into the room.

"Yes Dean?" the man addresses him.

"Elizabeth, this is Cas the angel. Cars, you already know Elizabeth."

"It's a pleasure to meet you." he addresses me.

I simply nod.

"So," says Dean, "I need your help, Cas. Elizabeth needs help believing us about the whole Hunter thing. Here's the plan, I'm going to cut her and I need you to heal her after I do, okay?"

Cas nods, and before I can say anything Dean has my arm in one hand and a knife in the other. And in one swift movement, he makes a shallow cut on my forearm.

"What the hell?!" I ask him.

"Elizabeth!" Kaitlin scolds me.

"He just cut me."

Cas steps forward. "Allow me." he says.

He steps forward and places two fingers on my wrist and my arm instantly lights up for a second and then dies. And in place of the cut is smooth skin.

I look at my arm, and then up at Cas.

Then my vision goes black.
