"Okay Harley, I'm going to miss you," Sam said as he got out of the car to hug me one last time. "You too Jack," he said patting him on the arm.

"Listen, if anything goes wrong, call me or Cas," he said.

"Okay we got it from here Dean, thanks for everything," I went up and hugged him.

"Don't do that, this is not going to be the last time we see each other," he said pulling away.

"Fine have it your way, your turn Sam," and I went over to give my uncle a hug.

"What am I chopped liver?" Bobby asked sitting up against the impala.

"Best for last," and I went over and hugged him.

"You two be careful, Jack watch out for her," Dean said.

"Don't worry I've got it under control," he said with a confident nod.

"Control my ass," I said.

"Bye you two," Dean said.

"Hey Dad, be careful," I said.

He smiled at me and said, "You too kid," and he got back into his car and left.

"What now?" Jack asked.

"We find the bastard that killed my family."

We were about to enter a warehouse outside of Lawrence which supposedly Valifar was in. Not that I don't trust Cas's directions so much as I don't trust Valifar to be predictable. I signaled Jack to be ready and on the silent count of three I opened the door. No one was there, but we still had a whole warehouse to search so we split up. Jack didn't particularly like the idea but I convinced him the sooner we kill Valifar the sooner all this crap would be over. I took the upstairs he took the downstairs. I searched upstairs through and through but nothing. I was checking an office room when I heard, "Harley, I think I found something!" from downstairs.

"I'm coming, sit tight!" I yelled back. I ran back downstairs to see Jack being choked against a wall by Valifar.

"Hello old friend, come to join the party?" Valifar said in his sickening voice.

"You let go of him or I swear I'll,"

"Kill me? Please, I've heard that line way too many times for it to be threatening," he said continuing to choke Jack. He mouthed the words help, and I knew I couldn't help him.

"It's not a threat Valifar, now let him go!" I screamed.

"Why? So I can suffer your wrath? Please, you don't have the strength to even give me a scratch, howa in the hell would you be able to kill me?" he asked.

"I'll find a way," I said with and edgy tone.

"You Winchesters, always find a way sooner or later don't you?"

"Well, we do have kind of a reputation," I said with a snarky smile. I  pulled out the demon blade Dean gave me and inspected it in front of Valifar.

"You want to kill me with that tooth pick? That is very funny, even for you," he said and stabbed Jack repeatedly. I don't remember making a sound after that, but I do remember feeling like my heart was ripped out and shone to me. "I'm sorry Jackie had to go, but every good story has it's twists and turns," and he disappeared. I ran over to Jack's side, where his blood was pooling everywhere.

"Jack!" I screamed through the tears. I tried to put my hands over the wounds but there were too many.

"Shhh," he put a finger to his lips. "Catch you on the flip side Ace," and he stroked my hair.

"Probably sooner than later," I smiled at him through the tears.

"Make it later, Ace, not that I don't want to see you," he said with one last smile and his eyes shut. I screamed but I heard nothing come out. I backed away from his body and looked at my hands, they were covered in his blood. I turned around and fell to my knees and kept staring at my hands. It's my fault he's dead, kept playing over and over again in my head. I covered my face with my hands and began sobbing. I lied down and sobbed some more. I think I fell asleep in there because I woke up the next morning and I was still in the warehouse. I sat up and looked at Jack, or what's left of him, for hours. I lost track of time because Dean found me sitting there looking at him after dark.

"Hey kid you alright?" he asked me but I didn't answer. "Come on let's go," he tried to get me to my feet but I didn't want to go. I struggled against him but he had a tight grip. I screamed to Jack but he wouldn't answer. Dean put me in the passenger seat of the car and went back into the warehouse, probably to clean up the mess. I saw him dump Jack's body covered in linens in the trunk. He closed it and came around to open my door. "Let's get you washed up, kid," and he took me out of the car and led me to the hose on the side of the building. He washed my hands and face, then we went back to the car and drove away.

"What now?" I asked Dean without looking at him.

"We go say bye to Bobby and have Jack a hunter's funeral, then we're going to Lisa's," he said and I barely registered it. After that everything was hazy, I remember burning Jack's body and saying bye to Bobby, and driving to Lisa's.
