Lost ¥ Dean Winchester [2]

30

Drip...Drop...Drip...Drop...

Jessica focused on the water droplets falling from a nearby busted pipe. The only sound that seemed to be echoing off the walls of their quiet dungeon.

It was odd to her that no demons occupied the room today.

Jessica positioned herself to sit against the wall. As she sat up, her body shook.

The amount of torture she had experienced from the time being here in Asmodeus's dungeon had given her less time to heal.

Everyday was a new tactic to try to find the exact location of what tree in Kansas her staff was in. And everyday she had less of a chance to heal.

"Gabriel." Jessica called out.

There was a muffled "hmph."

"I'm sorry. For everything."

There was silence.

"I feel we may die here and I haven't had the slightest clue on how to get out of here. As well as I may have just given them the key to find my staff. Heaven knows what Melissa is doing to the boys. For all we know they could be dead now."

Jessica brought her knees to her chest as best she could and rested her head on them.

"I-I don't know what to do anymore."

Tears began to stream down Jessica's cheeks now.

Gabriel could hear his sisters sobs and felt his own heart break.

Suddenly, the doors to the dungeon flew open. Someone quickly rushed inside and ran to the other room beside the throne.

Jessica backed herself into a corner and tried to hide herself as best as she could.

She had become a coward.

There was a loud rummaging sound and then those same footsteps ran towards her brothers cell.

"Gabriel? Gabriel!" A man was shouting.

He seemed to have a British accent.

"Gabriel, come, We must be quick! Stop being so difficult!"

The cell door flew open and Jessica could hear Gabriel's muffled cries of panic.

Jessica bolted out of her corner and grabbed at her cell bars.

"Hey!" She shouted.

The man stopped what he was doing and peered over into Jessica's cell.

"You? How did you—" he shook his head.

"Who are you? What are you doing to my brother!"

"I'm breaking him free, obviously."

Jessica eyed the man.

"What are you doing in that cell? Weren't you just with the Winchesters not three weeks ago?"

"They're alive?!" Jessica asked.

"Of course they are. Why wouldn't they be?"

"Listen, the other person you saw wasn't me. Her name is Melissa. She means to end this world. I have to get back to the bunker and talk to the boys. It's important!"

The man blinked several times as if he didn't understand a word she said.

"Listen, just get me out of here and I can explain on the way there. Just take me to Sam and Dean."

Gabriel started nodding his head in agreement to Jessica's statement.

The man sighed.

"Alright."
