Kendra sighed as she leaned against the sink in the bathroom. She rested her head against the cool glass of the mirror and closed her eyes. She was tired all the time, and hungry. She could see things that weren’t meant to be seen by humans and she was faster, stronger then before. She wanted to know what was going on with her. Everyone was worried about her, so they had sent her to the doctors. They couldn’t even explain what was wrong with her… all of their tests were inconclusive. The worse thing was… she needed Castiel. Everyone had seen him in the last three months, but her. Figures, she thought to herself, the one thing he would listen to was when she was saying goodbye.
She looked up as she saw the light flicker above her and she turned around. Castiel was standing there, looking as handsome as ever, maybe a bit rugged, like he hadn’t shaved in days, but still very handsome. She looked down at her clothes realizing she looked tired, and dirty. She had on a pair of jeans that she had been in all day while working on a car and an old t-shirt that belonged to Dean. She was always stealing Dean’s shirts. She would steal Castiel’s but he was never around anymore. She looked back up at Castiel before speaking after a moment.
“Castiel?” Kendra moved closer to him. He hadn’t been here in a few months, ever since she told him to leave. And no matter how much she had called for him, he hadn’t come. He was listening her to an extreme so the first thing that came to mind was the first thing she said; “What are you doing here?”
“You’re father was worried about you. He called me here, asked if I would talk to you.” Castiel watched her face. Of course it was her father. He was always worried about her. She looked away from Castiel. It hurt being so close to him, but not touching him. If she touched him, she would crack. She’d want him back in her life. “He said you’ve been to the human doctors and they can’t figure out what is wrong with you”
“Yes, that is true” Kendra nodded her head and came out of the bathroom. She had to get out of the small confining space that put her too close to him. She made her way into the living room where Dean, Sam and Bobby were.
“May I ask, what is wrong with you?” Castiel cocked his head slightly as he watched her. She seemed to be moving differently.
“I umm, been sick a lot, throwing up, just not feeling right” She shrugged her shoulders.
“Tell him about the book” Dean said sitting up from where he was laying on the couch watching a football game and drinking a beer. She looked away awkwardly as Sam picked up the book and gave it to her.
“Castiel, I’ve been stronger, faster and I can read languages I’ve never heard of” Kendra took the book from Sam and placed it on the table in front of Castiel. “I can read that, and I have no idea why. We went to a building that was guarded from angels…. And do you know how I knew…” Castiel shook his head. “I could see the symbols, the sigils that keep them out. I know for a fact that humans can’t see that, so can you tell me… what the fuck is going on with me?”
“What did it say?” Castiel asked. She looked confused. “That book, is a book of prophecies… so I want to know what it said”
“I don’t know… something about a child being born from above and … having great power, being able to rival arch angels… I really don’t understand it, and that’s not the point, Cas” Kendra shook her head. “The point is that I should not be able to read that.”
“I don’t know” Castiel spoke as he stepped closer to her. “But I can find out with your permission” She nodded as he pulled her shirt up slightly. He needed to touch bare skin in order to find out. She shivered at his touch as he placed his hand on her bare stomach. He closed his eyes for a moment as a small white light surrounded his hand. After a moment he gasped, pulled his hand away and looked at her wide eyed.
