Shot through the heart

Prologue

I happily skipped down the path to the park, I had snuck away from my brothers who were supposed to babysit me. Today I wanted to see the new park in another part of town, so that's where I was headed. I skipped into the park and a few strangers kept looking at me. I didn't mind it and walked to the playground where some other kids were playing. "Hello." I greeted a boy that was sitting untop of a climbing frame. "Hello, my name is Gabriel." He introduced himself. "My name is Christina but everybody calls me Chris." I introduced myself. Gabriel was sitting all alone on the climbing frame so I tapped him. "Tag, you're it!" I happily said and I started to run away. Gabriel looked at me, confused why I was running away. "Why did you do that and why are you running away?" Gabriel asked me. "Have you never played tag you're it?" I asked him and he shook his head. "I'll teach you." I told him and I explained the game to him. After a while we were happily playing tag you're it. Suddenly my dad showed up and walked towards us, looking furious. Gabriel quickly stumbled back when my dad stopped in front of me. Suddenly a woman stepped up and she stood in front of Gabriel. The two looked at each other before my dad started talking. "Amara." My father said looking at the woman. "John." The woman said. Gabriel looked terrified up to woman. The woman got ready to fight but more people that I knew started to show up, all of them ready to fight. "Mary." Amara greeted my mother mockingly. "Amara." She greeted her back, the same mocking tone in her voice. "Garth, Ash, great, now that we all know each other... get out of our part!" Ash said except for the last part, he screamed it. "Your part?" Amara asked with anger in her voice. Ash quickly hid behind Garth, who was also trembling. "This part belonged to Chuck." Amara said and my dad looked at her. "I banished you from this part, now you and your son get out" He said. "Oh, haven't you met my nephew, Gabriel? He was hand chosen by Chuck to follow in his footsteps and become the king assassin." Amara told my dad and he growled. Gabriel started trembling as my father looked at him. Ash scoffed and nudged Garth. "That's not a king, that's a maraca with hair." He said and he grinned. "Gabriel was last born before you exiled us to the ghetto's, where we have little food and less water." Amara said, pretending to be weak. "You know the penalty for returning to this part." My dad said angrily. "But the child does not! However if you really need your money, here." Amara said and she shoved Gabriel forward. My father looked down at him and then back up at a now smiling Amara. "Take him and get out, we're finished here." My dad said and he turned around to me. "Oh no John, we have barely begun." Amara said and she chuckled looking at me. My dad picked me up and I looked while Amara picked Gabriel up. "Bye." I softly whispered. "Bye." Gabriel softly whispered back. My dad took me back and when we reached our home my dad stopped, he was still holding me so I couldn't go anywhere either. "John." My mom said and she gave a meaningful look to my dad. He nodded and she continued to walk away. My dad and I watched mom and the others walking away before my dad put me down. "Where are they going?" I asked softly. "The big hall, where you aren't allowed to come." My dad answered me and I nodded. "Christina what did you think you were doing? You could've been killed today." My dad asked me. "But dad I didn't mean to disob.." I say before my dad gently cuts me off. "I'm telling you this because I love you, I don't want to lose you." My dad tells me. "I know." I say with a sigh. "If something happened to you I don't know what I'd do. One day I won't be here anymore and I need you to carry on in my place." My dad tells me and I sigh. "You need to be careful, as future queen.." my dad says before I interrupt him. "What if I don't want to be queen? It's not fun." I tell him. "That's like saying you don't want to be a Winchester, it's in your blood." My dad tells me. "Yeah, well, I have older brothers." I tell him. "Yes but all of your brothers are too rash." My dad tells me and I huff. "Listen Chris, one day you'll be queen and you'll actually like it." My dad tells me and I shake my head. "No, I won't." I say before Sam walks in. "Mom wants to have dinner, are you coming?" he asks and dad nods. I run towards Sam and he picks me up, carrying me to the kitchen.

I smile as I remember what happened next, Sam and I got into a food fight that Dean actually won by getting both me and Sam in the face. I often remember good memories before pulling the trigger on my sniper. I find my target and aim on his head. "I'm sorry." I whisper before pulling my trigger. The bullet flies through the air before plunging into the man's skull. I quickly put away my stuff before running to my bike and driving home. Sam greets me and I hug him, reaching up like a little kid. "Still having to reach up kiddo?" Sam teasingly asks me and I playfully punch him. "You shouldn't have become a moose." I tell him and we both laugh. "Christina, was your mission successful?" one of dad's little helpers asks and I nod. "It was." I say with a small sigh and the man walks away. Mom walks in and smiles at me, I know she fears that one day one of us will get caught on a mission. "Hey mom." I greet her and I give her a quick hug. "Hi darling, welcome back." She says and I smile. "What do we have for dinner?" I ask and she laughs. "Just like your brothers." she says before telling me what we're going to eat. "Hey Chris, I found this new book, it's called Hearts and Heroes and you might like it. It's a book about heroes and friendships... or something." Dean says and he throws a book towards me. "Thanks Dean." I beam and I catch the book. I walk to my room where I read until we have dinner.
