Just A Dream

Chapter 1

The twins stand in front of the old house. Aspen turns to her sister, a brow raised. "Are you sure this is the right place?" She questions the one-armed girl, who rolls her eyes. 

"Yes, Aspen." She says exasperatedly. "Aunt Kathy said to find our father, we have to find Bobby Singer." 

"Yeah, but are you sure this is the right place?" The younger of the two questions. "I mean, really, absolutely sure?" 

"We didn't go through everything we've been through the last three months just to go to the wrong house." Kenna states. "I double checked the address. This is Bobby's place." She looks away from her carbon copy to look back up at the house. "C'mon." Kenna leads the way to the porch, walking up the few steps and coming to a stop in front of the door. 

She lifts her hand to knock but her fist never makes contact with the wood. She stands there, frozen in front of the door with her fist in the air, a sudden bout of nervousness and insecurities hitting her. The feeling of her twin's hand on her shoulder is what breaks Kenna from her trance. She looks to her left to see her sister giving her a reassuring smile and is instilled with all the confidence she needs to knock on the door. 

It doesn't take long for the door to open, a man who looks to be in his fifties opening the door, raising a brow at the two girls in front of him. "Can I help you?" He asks slowly. 

"Are you Bobby Singer?" Kenna questions. 

"Who wants to know?" He asks suspiciously. 

"I'm Kenna and this is my sister Aspen." She introduces. "We're Elizabeth Bryce's kids."

"Come on in." Bobby says after a minute of analyzing the girls. 

They were both really skinny like they haven't eaten in weeks, one of them, Kenna, was missing her left arm and from what Bobby could tell from the scar, it happened recently. He also takes note of how Aspen seems to favor her left leg, putting all her weight on it. He quickly determines that these girls are no threat to him. He steps aside, allowing the girls in, noticing the slight limp of Aspen when she walks. "So what do Elizabeth Bryce's girls want?" Bobby leads the girls into the study and leans against the desk at the far end of the room.

"Our Aunt Kathy told us that you could help us find our father." Aspen says, speaking for the first time since arriving at Bobby's. 

"Where are your mom and aunt?" He asks curiously. 

"Dead." Kenna states simply. "Mom died seven years ago. Kathy died three months ago." 

"I'm sorry." He says. "How?" 

"Mom was in an attack. Kathy was killed by a demon." The older of the girls states. "Aunt Kathy told us right before she died that if anything ever happened to her, to find you so we can find our father." 

"Who's your father?" Bobby asks, although he's almost certain he knows the answer. After all, these girls are the spitting image of the man. Same dark green eyes, sandy blonde hair, even their stances are similar to the man's. But, God, does he hope he's wrong. 

"Dean Winchester." The girls say at the same time. Bobby sighs, hearing the words he was afraid of. He rubs the back of his neck slowly, trying to figure out how to break it to these girl's that their father died a few months ago.

"Girls, I'm sorry, but your daddy was killed four months ago." He says slowly, watching the reactions of the girls. 

Aspen has tears welling up in her eyes but Kenna tries to keep her expression hard, having tried not to get her hopes up but unable to help herself. She wraps her arm around her twin, who clings to her older sister as she buries her head in the crook of her neck. The sight of the hardened expression on Kenna's face as she tries to stay strong and comfort her sister reminds the old hunter so much of their father and uncle.
