The Winchester Sister

Chapter 28 - Point of No Return

I go upstairs as Dean wakes because I have to get ready for graduation and I don't want to listen to his whining. I change into my off the shoulder; fitted burgundy dress with matching heels. I curl my hair and put on some subtle make-up but with a darker rip lip. I put on the necklace that Bobby gave me on my 16th birthday and smile at myself in the mirror. For once in my life, I feel good. I grab my bright red gown and cap before making my way downstairs. I walk into Bobby's office and widen my eyes as I take in my suppose-to-be-dead half brother. "I was gone for an hour."

"It was Zachariah." Dean states with his arms crossed. 

"Still hate that guy." I comment and look towards Adam. "I'm Ashlee."

"I know." Adam replies, snarky. "Like you know that I'm Adam."

"Wow, you're a real peach." I retort and he rolls his eyes. 

"Right, lets get this show on the road." Bobby says as he rolls to the front door. "Y'all coming or what?"

"Going where?" Cas asks. 

"You think I'm dressed up like this for nothing?" I tease which I receive a blank look for. "Graduation, Cas. Graduation."

"Oh." He intones. "Congratulations." I snort. 

"Thanks, Cas." I reply with a smile. "Who's going to keep an eye on Adam?"

"I can be in the house by myself." Adam insists. 

"Yeah, right." Dean retorts. "All of us go. Now." Adam rolls his eyes and goes ahead into the Impala with Sam. Cas gives a "Sam" bitchface before our surroundings change. Oh. I put on my red gown and zip it up before putting on my gown. 

"I'm going to go and find my friends." I state. "Y'all can find a seat." Bobby snorts. "You know what I mean." I walk away and look around the sea of red to find my friends. 

"Ashlee, over here!" I hear Sofia exclaim to my right. Sofia was a Senior who was a person who was a person that I had an assignment with and that's how we became friends then I met other friends through her. I stop and smile at the group. Sofia Nikolakos, Aurore Duval, Thomas Adams, Dmitri Sokolov and Christian Lowell. Sofia, Thomas, Dmitri and Christian were all seniors while Aurore was a Junior who was also graduating early, like me. Aurore also happens to be a witch but a good one! Let's not even start on Christian being a werewolf, Sofia being descended from Nyx and Dmitri being descended from Dzydzilelya...They would kill me. Okay, so, maybe they wouldn't kill me for being friends with Sofia and Dmitri considering my own family history but they would for Aurore and Christian. Three figures approach us. The first, a beautiful woman, had hair as dark as night and caring brown eyes with a voluptuous figure. The second, another woman, was strikingly beautiful with flowing blonde hair to her waist and mesmerising green eyes with a petite figure. The third, a familiar man, had dark brown hair and piercing blue eyes with a lean but muscular figure. Helios.  What an earth is he doing here? And who are the people with him? "Nyx?!" Sofia says in surprise at the same time as Dmitri and I exclaim, "Dzydzilelya?!" and "Helios?", respectively.

"Γεια!" I greet with a smile. "Τι κάνεις εδώ?"

"We came to watch our descendants graduate." The 1st woman, who I presume is Nyx, explains. I watch as Sofia narrows her eyes. 

"You came to watch us graduate?" She asks. "Really?"

"She's right, it does sound a bit weird." I add on. "Considering that you've been through plenty of, well, situations which would make this minuscule in comparison to those."

"We had a break of sorts." Dzydzilelya answers. "Anyway, we look over all of you as you are our descendants and you do that for family, do you not?"
