A Supernatural Kind of Day

Chapter Six

      The portal had closed. I didn't know how they managed to get it opened in the first place so the reality of my situation had hit me yet.Turning back towards Cas I expected him to try again with the portal but he just stood there looking at me with his sad blue eyes. Walking back to him, I pointed to where the portal had been.

"Where is it? What happened?" I asked, breathless from running.

"Poppy... I'm sorry that was the last portal back to your world, you're stuck here," he answered. It didn't seem real, the words that just came out of his mouth couldn't have been real.

"Excuse me?" I asked, praying for a different answer.

"We used the last bit of the potion Crowley made to open that portal to send you home and you were too late. I am so sorry - but we'll take care of you." Him saying that he'd take care of me should've made me feel better but it didn't. It wasn't Castiel's job to take care of me, it was my mom's. I began to pace.

"How could this have happened? What am I going to do? I can't fight, I'm going to die. Oh my gosh I'm going to die here! No one will know what happened to me, unless I'm in the show right now, except it's not a show here it's real life and in life people die and stay dead!" I rambled. Cas came over and pressed his hands on my shoulders.

"Poppy calm down," he urged.

"Calm down? Cas I'm stuck here! I can't go home! Do you realize how often people like me die in this show? Females don't tend to stick around - not even the lesbians! Cas I can't die here! You've got to teach me to fight right now!" I screeched. At this point Sam and Dean had come out and had been watching me rant and freak out.

"No one's teaching anybody anything right now, we need to get out of here before Crowley comes back. We can take you to the Bunker and everything will be fine," Dean assured.

"Oh yeah that bunker will just solve everything won't it?!" I snapped. Dean glanced over at Cas knowingly. "Don't do that! It's when you do things like that that make people think you two are gay for each other alright?!" I was hysterical, I guessed it had been from the shock but at this rate, who cared? Cas sighed then pressed two fingers on my forehead and the hysterics came to an abrupt halt.

I woke with a jolt, I was in the back seat of the Impala with my head resting on Cas's legs, blinking I saw him looking down at me with a calm yet cautious face.

"I'm sorry for doing that but we had to leave and I don't think that the hysterics were going to stop anytime soon," he explained but I waved him off while sitting up.

"No you did the smart thing. I'm sorry for behaving that way I'm not usually this much of a freak," I commented. Looking around I saw that we were in the middle of some kind of forest then I remembered where Dean said we were going and excitement took over, I'm sure Cas thought I had some kind of bipolar disorder, maybe I did... who knew?

"We're at the bunker?" I asked, not really looking for an answer.

"Uh yes, Dean said it would be the safest place for you," he answered. "Are you upset?" Snapping my head back to him I smiled.

"Upset? This is the greatest thing! Though I would've loved to have met Bobby but I'll take what I can get!" Leaping out of the car I waited for Cas to show me the inside.

"It's just that you seemed upset earlier," he pointed out getting out of the car.

"I know but I think it was the shock of... the present problem," I answered choosing my words carefully for my own sake. Together we walked inside the bunker and everything looked like it did in the show; the tan walls, the stairs, the lit up map. It was the best thing ever.
