Tainted Wings (Forever Book 2)

Chapter 5

ALEX WINCHESTER 

I grabbed my bag and swung it over my shoulder. The road to Bobby's was going to be interesting. Dean wanted to kill Gabriel and Cas was a hot mess. Sam and I are the only two with our heads on straight. 

Cas was on the verge of hysterical when Bobby told us about the sighting of a red-haired girl down near Oklahoma City. One with heterochromia, one hazel, and one blue eye. I had a feeling that it was her, I had to know. so we packed up and left. 

When we arrived what we saw was not what we were expecting. A large mural of a redhead with black and white wings. The edges of her wings were tainted black and she looked like she was only slightly smaller than me height wise. I walked up and pressed my hand into the brick wall. How was she still alive? How did someone know what she looked like?

Was she dead? Why did she have wings?

SCARLETT DESTINY

The town of Oklahoma City was nice. I was thankful for Gabriel bringing me here to learn how to fight. The movements felt familiar to me. Was I a person in the army? A navy seal? Secret service? My head spun just thinking about it. 

I swung a hard left my fist connecting with the demon's face. Gabriel was trying to tell me how to send him back to hell but I couldn't hear him over what the demon was saying.

"Its Scarlett destiny Winchester! She's not dead!" he screamed. He tried to smoke out but I covered his mouth and looked at him.

"What did you call me?" I asked confused. I heard Gabriel yelling at me but I didn't care. The man talked under my hand and I uncovered it. 

"Scarlett Destiny Winchester." He spoke calmly. "Do you not know who you are?" He asked. 

"No..." I shook my head. I looked up at the man as he smirked and tilted his head back. On instinct, I threw up my arms in an X position and glass from almost every storefront flew over and surrounded us in a bubble leaving no holes for him to escape from. He and I looked at it in awe. 

Gabriel ran over and screamed at me and the words finally reached my head. "Put your hand on his forehead and sent him back to hell!"And that's exactly what I did. The glow from it was almost blinding. I stood in awe and looked around at the bubble.  

"h-how do I get rid of this?" I asked. 

"Now I understand why your wings are slightly black. You've got demon blood in you," He responded. "Don't you?" He took a step forward and pushed against the glass. I lowered my arms and it collapsed around us. I covered my head and he grabbed my wrists. "DONT YOU?" He asked again more sternly this time. 

"I- I don't know!" I told him trying to get my arm free. He sighed and let go pinching the bridge of his nose. 

"Well, this may get problematic." He told me letting out a huge disappointed sigh. "You're lucky I pulled you out and not Balthazar. He would have slapped you by now." I took a step back truly glad that this 'Balthazar' hadn't pulled me out of... Where was it? Hell?

"I'm sorry Gabriel..." I spoke softly.

ALEX WINCHESTER

I turned the corner and stopped in my tracks. In the middle of the courtyard was a misshapen circle of glass. "This... This is unusual..." I said to Sam who was frozen. I turned to him and furrowed my brow. "Sam?"

"This was Scar. I've seen her do this once before." Sam commented. "She's alive. Cas was right. She was here." I smiled and watched him crack a smile while tears welled up in his eyes.
