Chapter 5 - Tin Foil Hats and Alien Juice

You woke up to a strange noise.

It was Lucifer, he was having his nightmares again.

You moved his arm and scooted closer to him and wrapped one your arms around him.

After a few minutes it stopped, but he woke up anyway.

"Hey Y/N," he greeted you with a groggy tone.

"Hey Luci."

"Why do you keep calling me that?"

"Because I can. Anyway, you called yourself that when you were in Sam's head."

"Oh yeah."

You both laid in bed for a few minutes when Lucifer said, "Y/N help me find my grace."

"What?"

"I'm pretty sure you heard me the first time."

You shook your head, "Luci, how are we going to do that? Chuck took away your grace and He probably hid it somewhere where we will never ever find it. And God knows Sam, Dean, or Cass wouldn't help."

Lucifer sighed.

"Y/N, right before He took my grace away, He told me I could find it. That I would find it when the time was right. And frankly, Y/N, I believe now is the right time. Besides, you would be way more help than those dimwits."

You softly chuckled, "Even if we were to find your grace... I-I can't just leave Sam and Dean."

"Why?"

"Well one, I couldn't tell them the truth, I would have to lie. Two, I just pack my bags and leave? Just like that? They're like... like f-"

"Family? Those hairless apes, you call them family? You know what they've done to me Y/N! Yet you're so hesitant to leave them? Y/N I'll be with you all the way, I promise."

He sighed.

"Look, I'm sorry I know you're close to them but... They'll never know you helped. Please. I have to, I can't remain human any longer, I need my powers. I need to reclaim my throne in Hell. Even though, I must admit, my human time is a lot more enjoyable with you than them."

You snuggled closer to Lucifer. 

"Even if I do have my concerns Luci," you told him, "I will always be with you."

Lucifer wrapped his arms around you, "And I with you."

It was now 3:00 A.M. You had packed two suitcases full of you and Lucifer's clothes and amenities.

You also had a big bag of food, and a bag with a variety of weapons.

You had written a note, lying about why you were leaving.

You and Lucifer didn't dare steal a car out of a garage, so you walked until you found a car you could steal that was suitable for your needs.

It was when you had gotten a few towns over that you had stopped at a motel so you could do research.

You looked for signs.

Any signs.

You were scrolling through "big news" on your laptop when you saw something.

"So get this," you said, imitating Sam, "two people died yesterday after claiming to have gone to some place in Missouri and touching something crafted by aliens. Want to check it out?"

"Two people, huh? Stupid people, although I will say I expected a lot more."

FBI badges, check. Suits, check. You were ready.

You knocked on the big door. An older woman came out, she had on bell-bottom pants with a shirt that had a weird psychedelic pattern on it. She was also wearing a tin-foil hat.

The X-Files theme started running through your head.

"Mrs. Burne? I'm Special Agent Reyes, and this is my partner Special Agent Doggett. We're here to talk about your son."

She eyed you suspiciously.

"Don't worry, we are not extraterrestrials."

She sighed, "Oh course, of course. Come in."

She lead you into a room, there was a lot of tin foil. 

She apparently had made plenty of tin foil hats and gave both of you one.

"Please, sit down," she told you, waving her arms toward the couch, she sat in the recliner.

You and Lucifer sat down, and you put on your hat. When you saw Lucifer not putting his on, you nudged him and he put his on with a scowl on his face.

"Now, Mrs. Burne,  when was the last time you had contact with your son?" you asked.

"A few days ago, right before he went off. I told him not to go, I really did. He wouldn't listen! The aliens got him! I know it!"

Lucifer gave you "the look".

"Did he happen to tell you what he was going after, or where he was going?" 

"There is this lake a few miles out of here. One of his friends said that he found alien juice," She told you.

"A-alien juice?"

"Yes! Alien juice! See, they're kept in these vials and they glow a bright, light blue! That's what the aliens live off of."

Lucifer was trying not to burst out laughing.

You cleared your throat and stood up, "Thank you Mrs. Burne, it is probably time we uh- head out."

Lucifer nodded and stoop up quickly.

"Of course!"

You rushed out of there.

"Really? Alien juice? Ha! Stupid," Lucifer laughed as he tossed away his tin foil hat and ripped off yours.

"Well it's not like she knows any better, and plus she's going through rough times."

"I really don't think I'll ever understand you humans."

"I don't think I will either," you agreed.

You both hopped in the car.

"Let's go find your grace."
