Shane Winchester, formerly Shane Parker, has not an easy run at things. When she was young, her entire family was murdered by her demon-possessed father, who then killed himself. Many years later,, that same demon that killed her family came back to try to kill Shane, who at the time was living in an orphanage, marred with the reputation of a mentally unstable child. And although she was rescued by the Winchester brothers, another demon manifested itself and possessed Shane for four years, leaving her as nothing more than a shell of a person. But after freeing herself from said demon, Shane discovered that she isn't even human, rather a creature who's sole purpose and desire is to find demons and kill them in the most grotesque way possible. Shane's hopes of finally getting her life back and gaining some stability are dashed to pieces as she now finds herself chased by the only friends she had left in the world, Sam and Dean. She has fallen victim to the notorious cliche: "the hunter has become the hunted." Terrified and accompanied only by the Trickster, Shane continues running from her seemingly imminent demise, and attempts to find a way to reverse the terrible transformation she is undergoing. Although she tired to keep her wits about her, one question still plagues her mind:
"How am I ever going to survive this?"
