In the Light of the Moon

Part 18

You didn't even bother getting changed. Whatever was going to happen once you met up with the others, it was going to be messy, so it didn't matter to you if you were already a mess. You and Cas got straight into your car and drove as fast as you could to the edge of town. It wasn't too late, but the traffic had seemed to be thinner than it usually would be at this time, so you got there in half the time that it would actually take. You loaded up on the weapons you would need and cautiously stepped into the mill with Castiel right behind you. As soon as you stepped inside, you could hear echoes of voices bouncing every where. This made it difficult to know which way to go. This place was huge and you found yourself being wary around all of the old machinery, almost worried that they may roar back into life and grab at you, pulling you into a never-ending world of cogs and string.
Suddenly, you heard a groan and saw movement behind one of the machines and you cautiously tiptoed closer, aiming your weapon at the target before coming around the corner and seeing Sam strewn on they floor. You rushed to his side and checked him for any wounds.

"Sam? Are you okay? What happened??" You whispered. You didn't find wounds, but what you did find seemed to startle you more so: simplistic patterned tattoos running halfway down both of his arms.
Cas pulled you away quickly when Sam snapped his head up at you both. Your breathing became shallow as you saw him get to his feet and tower above you.
"Y/N, we have to go! Now!" Castiel roared, pulling you in the opposite direction when you wouldn't budge on your own. You watched as Sam strode behind you, almost as though you were running away from a murderer in a horror movie and you couldn't get away no matter how hard you tried.
You turned around a corner and ran up a set of stairs with Cas, getting closer to sounds of a struggle and Dean was in the middle of it all. The Djinni you saw was just playing with him, having his fun, it seemed. No tattoos on Dean, just blood and cuts. The Djinni was fighting with Dean.

"You stay right here." Castiel ordered and you refused to move a muscle at that.
You heard movement somewhere behind you and lost concentration of what Cas was doing for a second before looking back and seeing the Djinni in the room thrown to the other side, furthest from Dean. You watched on, shocked and proud as Castiel lifted Dean easily from the ground, speaking to him as he was doing so. They made their way over to you, Dean holding onto Cas for stability.

"Charlie must be somewhere around here. Dean thinks she's in one of the rooms on this floor." Cas told you what Dean must have told him.

"Get Dean to his car, I'll search for Charlie."

"Are you sure? Wouldn't it be better for me to look for her?" Castiel tried to reason with you, but you just simply held up your silver knife that you had earlier dipped in lamb's blood. Standard procedure, but this case was turning out to be anything but standard. You quickly walked along the floor, peeking into each room before finding a room that seemed smaller that the rest. This caught your attention and you walked inside, seeing that it was just a rouse. Walls built around the door with a few shelves and another door behind the one you had just opened. This Djinni was smart and you suddenly became even more worried by this.

You opened the second door without any problems and stepped into the room. This Djinni apparently wasn't smart enough to put its victims into a room without a window, even more conveniently, a window with a fire escape.

You looked around at all of the bodies in the room and began trying to wake them up, unhooking them from their binds and helping them stand. You opened the window and told them to head out through it, told them to wait in the Rover outside, promising to explain things then.
You had let three of them loose before turning around and seeing the Djinni come in through that second door, immediately angered by what it saw, it tried to lunge at its victims, put them back into their dreaming state, but there was no way you were going to let that happen ever again. You threw yourself at it, unsuccessfully. Two of the kids got out through the fire escape while the third was dragged back inside by the Djinni, but it didn't put her to sleep. Instead, tattoos began to wind their way onto her arms and her eyes shone a bright purple.

Scared out of your wits you lunged at the first Djinni trying to fight him before the girl he had just turned became conscious of her powers (hoping that that was the way this kind of thing worked). You fought and struggled with the Djinni before feeling a weight in your back. Then it was gone. The girl had tried to fight you, but then stopped, what happened?
The Djinni you were fighting froze and it's eyes shone deep into yours before going limp. You shoved it off of you and moved away quickly, realising it was dead.

"What?" You thought out loud before seeing Cas. Thank heck for that. You smiled, grateful. And Cas then took a jar out of his pocket and put it to the wound he had just made in the Djinni.
Wait, what the heck?!
The jar filled right up with the Djinni's blood before he screwed a top onto in and put it into his pocket. You stared, befuddled at him.

"Help me with this?" He asked, completely ignoring his own previous actions and motioned to the victims around you. You got up with his help and began to untie three of the six remaining victims and then you saw her. Charlie was right behind all of them. Hanging by her wrists with her hair over her face, you went straight to her and checked her over, no wounds, no tattoos. Good. You began trying to wake her up as you heard Cas moving around behind you to the two other victims.

"Y/N." Castiel called from behind you, you turned to him, seeing him give you a sad look as he held up the arms of the two victims. "They're gone."
You stopped trying to wake Charlie for a moment before becoming worried and turning back to her, shaking her. She woke with a start, almost as though she was midway through a fight, before realising it was you in front of her.
"Y/N? Y/N!" You put your finger to your lips, signalling her to be quiet. Sam was still walking around somewhere and you didn't want to be confronted with him right now after earlier. What are you even going to do? How is it possible for Djinn to have this kind of power? And how the hell could you even begin trying to find a way to change Sam back?

You made sure Charlie could walk on her own before looking back at the two dead victims, sadly and making your way out of the window with Castiel and Charlie to the cars where the rest of the victims and Dean were waiting, albeit Dean was unconscious.

I hope you guys enjoyed this part! I really, really enjoyed writing it!
2 parts up in one morning I was so pumped to write this😄
