Scarlett's POV:

"I need to talk to you guys." Castiel said to Dean, Sam, Becca, and me. We went out of earshot and Castiel began speaking.

"I think the best option is to erase her memory. She's no good to anyone if she doesn't know anything." Cas said.

"Would you have to erase her memory completely of me?" I asked.

"Yes, and the books." Cas said. I sighed sadly.

"I guess that's the only option." I said. I looked over to see Oliver watching us. I waved him over.

"What's going on?" He asked.

"We're wiping her memory." I sighed. He nodded happy with the arrangement so we all walked over. Before Castiel could lift a finger a team of demons appeared.

"Yeah, I don't think that's a good idea." one of them, a girl, said. She grabbed Megan and disappeared.

"Dammit!" Dean cursed loudly. I ran a hand through my hair.

"Cas?" I asked. He nodded and disappeared to find her.

"What just happened? Where is he going?!" Oliver asked angrily.

"Hey going to find your daughter, Oliver." I said.

"This is your fault." He said pointing at Dean.

"Hey I-" I stopped Dean before he could say something he would regret.

"Hey, look, it's my fault, not Dean's, everyone that meets me is pretty just always going to be in danger. I don't know why that's just how it goes and it's frustrating. We're going to find Megan but we have to work together so chill out!" I shouted. Castiel reappeared.

"I found her but the whole place is warded." Castiel said.

"Alright, well let's go." I said.

Megan's POV:

I felt the binding tied around my wrists and tested it out. I was tied to a pole that had a point in the back so I began to rub the rope up and down hoping it would break apart soon. The demons said they would begin using me when I was 16 for now I just have to sit here. I wasn't having that. Demons stood around me keeping a look out for "those awful Winchesters" as they put it. Soon the door busted open and the three Winchesters, Becca, and Oliver busted in. Oliver ran over to me and untied me as the Winchesters fought. Shots were fired, this curvy knife thing slit some throats. So soon all the demons were dead on the floor. I stood up and hugged Oliver who squeezed me tightly.

"Are you okay?" He asked letting go.

"I've been better." I said. He smirked. How many times have I said that. Scarlett walked over with Castiel and she wrapped her arms around me.

"Megan, I'm so sorry." she whispered.

"Dont apologize it's not your fault." I said.

"I'm not talking about the demons kidnapping you." she said.

"Then what are you talking about?" I asked. She let go of me and looked at me.

"I'm sorry." she whispered. I squinted my eyebrows when Cas put his fingers to my head and I collapsed.

Oliver's POV:

"What's did you do?!" I asked running over and picking up Megan's body.

"She's fine. When she wakes up she won't remeber anything about the Winchesters. Not even the books." Castiel said.

"So she's safe?" I asked. They all nodded. Scarlett looked down sadly and I felt kind of bad but it didn't matter. Megan was safe, that's what mattered.

"I guess we gotta go." Scarlett said. I waved as they all left. Felicity's voice flooded my ear.

"Get her into bed."

Megan's POV:

I woke up to a knock at my door. I groaned.

"Come in!" I called. Oliver walked in.

"Get up were going out!" He said. I sat up.

"Out where?" I asked.

"I don't know, wherever." He said.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because." He replied. I fell back down.

"Okay." I said. He left and I sighed. I climbed out of bed and walked over to my closet. As I went through my shirts I wondered what I did yesterday. I felt like there was a gap in my memory like something just wasn't right, like several memories were gone. Like, maybe someone close to my had died and I can't even remeber them. I shook of the feeling and picked out an outfit. In honor of Christmas right around the corner I wore a green Christmas sweater that fell of one shoulder that said "The best way to spread Christmas is to sing loud for all to hear." which is one of my favorite quotes from the movie "Elf". I also put in dark jeans, snowflake necklace and earnings, a Christmas bracelet, and black uggs. I then grabbed a black messenger bag and put in my iPhone which I had put a penguin case on. I walked out of my room and down the stairs.

"Dad, what are we doing? Why did you make me get up this morning on a Saturday." I groaned. He chuckled.

"Come on." He said ignoring my questions. I walked outside and got in shot gun. He got in and I instantly grabbed the aux cord and plugged in my phone as he started the car. I scrolled down on my phone and chose a song. I turned on Why Worry by Set It Off and sang along turning it up loudly. I was trying to wake myself up.

"That helping?" He said loudly over the music. I guess he knew what I was doing.

"Yuppers!" I said turning it up louder. He rolled his eyes and kept driving. A few more Set It Off songs later we pulled into a car dealership.

"What are we doing here?" I asked him.

"Getting you a birthday present." He said. My eyes widened.

"What?! But, my birthday is tomorrow!" I said.

"No its not today is December 8th." He said.

"What? No its not." I said. He laughed.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"I guess so. I guess I just got my days mixed." I said. Then I realized I was getting a car and squealed loudly. Oliver laughed and I hopped out of the car. He got out too and I ran over to him hugging him tightly.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!" I squealed. He hugged me back.

"You're welcome." He said.

I got a light blue convertible bug. I felt kind of spoiled but oh well. Since I didn't exactly have a driver's license yet I had to go take the test. I had already done everything I needed with my permit so that's all I had to do. I aced it and Oliver and I took my car. I got to drive. Of course, the top was up, it's too cold for it to be down. Oliver and I got lunch and talked about what I wanted to do for a party since I haven't actually thought about it yet.

"Honestly I don't want to do much..." I said.

"Megan, you're sixteen. Thea had a huge party." He said.

"I'm not Thea." I laughed.

"Do you have any idea of what you want to do?" Oliver asked.

"I don't know, probably just have a girls night with some friends." I said. He nodded.

"What would that look like?" He asked. I shrugged and then got an idea.

"What if Thea took me and a few friends out for a weekend? We could just go hang in a hotel with an indoor pool over the weekend and go shopping and get our nails done and stuff." I said.

"I bet Thea would love to do that." Oliver said. I nodded.

"So it's settled." I said.

"I guess it is."
