The New Winchester

Chapter 16 Djin

I had to get away from there and everyone knew it. I just destroyed a whole town. I was built to kill. I have to let go and just hunt. Thankfully there was a djin case a few towns away from Alexandria where I used to live.

Once I pulled into where I thought the djin lived I got out an old silver knife that was covered with lamb blood. I sunk into the building trying to find where it was hiding.

There was a movement behind me and a loud crash. I turned to stab the monster but stabbed the air instead when the djin came from behind me tattoos crawling up his hands were the last thing I saw. My vision blurred and I woke up in a bed. The house I was in looked all to familiar. Kristen came in and jumped on my bed up and down. 

"Erika, Erika, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" I threw a pillow at her. But it missed ad hit a wooden chest with smoothly cut swirls and angel wings. Hey! I remember now. This is the bedroom my mother and brother were slaughtered in. I flinched at the memory.

"MOM!" I got out of bed and ran out leaving Kristen in the room. "Dad?"

"Hey, babe. Happy Birthday. What do you want for breakfast?" A lady I haven't seen in 17 years said waiting in the kitchen. Mom. 

"Anything. Where's Dad?" I looked for the man I killed but he wasn't in the room.

"Well, you aren't like yourself. And Charlie is in the study." She took out some eggs and started cooking.

I continued my search to see if I did kill him. I remembered exactly where everything was . I turned through the halls and around the back of the stairs. The study was a small room by the back of the house. I turned into the study to see Gabriel sitting there twirling a shot of whiskey. Gabriel stayed!

"Dad!" I ran over and hugged him.

"Yeah, munchkin? What do you need? Oh, yes Happy Birthday, honey." He asked softly smiling. What's up with the nicknames?

"Where is Josh and... and Ben?" I choked out tears threatening to spill.

"Honey, Josh died in a car crash and Ben is in Europe. Did you forget?" He looked at me strangely.

"Yeah, must have. Hey have you felt any cold spots? Or seen any electrical storms? Maybe cow mutations?" His eyes widened. Crap he knows what I'm talking about.

"No. Not exactly. Erika what are you talking about?" He voice grew shaky. "There isn't any of that. And I want to ask you a question. How- what- why are you talking about this?"

"Because-" No I couldn't tell. It would give me away. "Never mind. I'll explain later. Um have you ever met an angel?" That was too far.

"Why would I know an angel? Have you been snooping around?"

"No, Gabriel I know him because I'm half Arch-"

"Angel I know." He finished. "How do you know what you are?"

"Never mind. I just found out." Crap this is my life without hunting? The doorbell rang and I took it as an opportunity to get out of this situation. "I'll get that." 

I rushed out of the study to get away from the questions. I walked slowly back to the door not wanting to go faster. I opened it sluggishly. "Hello." I saw an old friend of mine that died in my high school. "Daniel. Hi!"

"Hey, babe." He moved down to kiss me. He was as tall maybe taller than Sam. Similar features too. Both had a stocky build, tall, longer hair and were super cute. I kissed back to make him happy. "I need to ask you something during your little birthday lunch celebration."

"Okay," I just noticed I was still in my tank-top and short shorts PJ's. "I have to go change sorry." I ran upstairs wondering how Daniel and I got together. I guess me hunting killed him. I'm glad he didn't die, but Daniel and I didn't get along very well.

"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Rodreguiz." I could hear him greeting my parents. Or who were my parents. 

Once I got into the bed room I got on some appealing clothes and decided I have to set this straight I'm not supposed to have a whole family. I opened the window and gripped the side of the house with my slippery shoes. I knew that I couldn't spend much time going around the city, so I rushed with haste to find the town cemetery.

I soon found it and my brother's final resting place. A single tear slide down my cheek landing on the grave stone. I started crying right there and then.

"I ... I should have been there." I bawled my eyes out before saying anything else. I saw a person's grave that I had saved a couple years ago. "What? I saved her and her family." I realised that all that I had did hadn't happened at all. "I know how these things go. And I will never actually get a happily ever after no... as Dean would call it, apple pie life for me. I'm supposed to see people die and try to protect them but fail. I have to go and live my real life. I'll protect Kirsten too. I promise you. I promise you."

I ran back to the house right before we left for my birthday lunch. We were going to a fancy restaurant.

"Erika, this is what I wanted to ask you." Daniel knelt down on one knee and pulled out a small black box. Oh my God. "Will you marry me?"

"Yeah, sure .... um yes." A rush of surprise washed over me. I'm engaged. No, I'm not supposed to. I promised Josh. "I have to go."

I walked away from the table then once they were out of sight I ran away to where I left the truck and went back to the building where I incountered the djin. I had grabbed a spare knife out of the glove box too. Once I got into the warehouse I plunged the knife in my heart.

I woke up strung up from the ceiling. He used leather straps to hang me from. Bad choice. I used all the energy I had to burn through the straps. The monster wans't coming back so I staggered out of the building to my bike and sped off.

"So that's what my life is like with my parents. Nothing changes there is still sadness. But I can change my self." I said to my self as I got into a hotel room and went to the bathroom. I couldn't stand to look at myself, I was so disgusted I wanted to be someone else. 

I went around the hotel room and found a pair of scissors. I started to cut off little by little of my hair. "Still not enough." I said to myself. I went to the store and bought hair bleach. "I sure hope this  stuff works." After I bleached it enough it was a pure white I felt better like a new person that could start over.
