Episode: I Know What You Did Last Summer

Setting: N/A

***

Two months. Ive been back with my brothers for a total of two months and ive already almost died eight fucking times. These boys are cursed, im sure of it. I mean, how the hell is it possible that in my life as a hunter and doctor, ive managed to avoid getting attacked by a stuffed fucking teddy bear until my brothers roll around? Yeah... theyre cursed.

In other news, my biggest brother is a big fat liar. He did know about Hell and he was refusing to share with the class. I mean i get it, its Hell. But part of me is pulling me towards it, towards wanting to know what hell is like, wanting to be in Hell. The thought of that makes me want to lock myself up and throw away the key.

Speaking of; seems our newest lead is from a psych ward. Then again the lead comes from a stupid demon with a stupid face so the again, maybe not. Unfortunately, Sam for some reason trusts this bitch.

"I just figured whatever the deal is, you might wanna find her before the demons do."

"Last i checked, you were a demon, how do we know you dont want to use us to find her yourself. Im sure there is an amazing reward for the bitch who-"

"Mia." Sam stops me and i frown at him, then look at Dean for support. He is obviously siding with me but he says nothing. "Maybe we should check it out." Sam continues, an arm outstretched across me so i dont torch the demon alive. Even though i cant control it and it would probably backfire anyway.

"Actually, were working a case." Dean says, finally backing me up

"What case?"

"Uh, we got leads, big leads."

"Sounds dangerous."

"Yeah well it sure aint goose chasing after some chick who for all we know doesnt even exist just because you say shes important."

"Im just delivering the news."

"Oh, yeah, cause were supposed to trust you." I mutter, looking away and glaring at a few guys who seemed to be eying me off.

"With who your supernatural daddy is, Mia?" My attention snaps back to her. "Yeah, i think you would trust me. But whatever, you can do what you want with what i tell you. Im just a demon after all. As far as im concerned, I told you, Im done."

I go to ask her what the hell she meant about my 'supernatural daddy' but Sam talks before I do, and apparently thinks this goose chase is more important. "Wait, wait wait. So this hospital Anna escaped from.. got a name?"

And just like that, we have a name, a destination, and a shit load more questions than we do answers. No thanks to my brother over here.

"What the fuck did she mean by 'supernatural daddy'?" I ask for about the one-hundredth time since getting into the car.

"She was just trying to get under your skin, Mia. Shes a demon. Let it go." Sam dismisses and i bitch face him.

"So you dismiss what she says when it comes to potentially the reason your twin burns people and flies away without doing anything but god forbid you dismiss anything when it comes to you, huh Sam? What if she wasnt 'just trying to get under my skin'? What if she actually knows something? Youre just going to dismiss it?"

"We know what you are." I doubletake on his words, giving him a hurtful look. "Youve got angel grace. Youre a nephelim or whatever. The angels said so."

"The angels also said theyd kill us, remember? Im sorry if i dont goddamn trust them." I snap and look out the window, i frown set deep on my face.

"Can we just focus on the case? Sam, call and find out if this Anna chick is real." Dean snaps, pulling the two of us out of a fight that is the biggest weve had since I was twenty-one.

--

Three more days and we arrive at the hospital and here is how the current conversation triangle is going: Dean will talk to both of us but is reluctant with sam, Im refusing to even talk to Sam because im petty and Sam reluctantly talks with dean and tries his hardest to get me to talk to him. Jokes on him, thats not gonna happen.

"She thought demons were after her." The doctor says, handing me a sketchbook and eyeing me questionably as my petty ass refuses to let Sam look.

I flip through the book, angled away from Sam. "Interesting" I say, hovering over a paticular chapel-like drawing.

"Its not uncommon for our for patients to believe monsters are real."

"Probably because theyve all seen one." I mutter, thankfully it goes unheard by the woman but not by Sam. He kicks my ankle.

I flip the page and freeze, glancing at Sam for half a second before remembering that im cranky at him and diverting my attention to Dean.

"The Revelations." Dean says, glancing at the pictures as i keep flipping.

"Since when do The Revelations have jack-o-lanterns."

"Its a little known translation." Dean says in the worst possible lie ever.

"Well, Anna's father was a church deacon, when she became ill her paranoia took on religious undertones. She was convinced the devil was about to rise up and end the world." It takes all my strength to keep my face in a neutral expression. "I hope you find her. Its dangerous for her to be on her own right now."

---

Demons. Fucking demons. I lean over the bodies of the late Mr and Mrs Milton and snap my head up to look at Sam. "This is what happens when we trust demons. They screw us over and are probably ready to ambush us."

Sam gives me a bitchface but ignores me, just continuing to look around the house. I just analyse the wounds on the Milton couple. No trickle of blood, just a puddle. But the wounds weren't deep enough for immediate death. Knowing that and seeing the position they're currently in, I can tell that they bled out, side by side. They knew they were dying and yet they stayed still and accepted their fate. I tilt my head slightly as I look at the two, lost in thought as i analyse the situation and my reaction to it.

"If you were religious, scared and had demons on your ass, where would you go?" Sam asks openly to the class. A church. I know from personal experience. Though I'm still not gonna talk to the moose so I just stand up and walk out of to the Impala, waiting for the boys to follow.
