Episode: Season 4 - I Know What You Did Last Summer Pt. 1

Dean wasn't happy when he found out Sam had been lying to him this whole time about Ruby. I said nothing, best not to get in the middle of that. Not that I knew outright but I had had my suspicions all along... She claimed she wanted to help us but neither Dean nor myself were convinced of that. I know Sam trusts her but I'm just not so sure. She is a demon, after all...

She did inform us though of a girl named Anna that was currently being pursued by demons. After a few minutes of Sam convincing Dean to check it out, we all headed to where the girl was located at. When we finally tracked her down, she was being trapped in a church attic by demons. As we stepped into the attic, the musty smell hit my nose and I cringed. I'd always hated that smell. Reminded me too much of days when Aunt Grace would force me to clean out the attic so she wouldn't have to do it herself.

"Anna? We're not gonna hurt you. We're here to help," Sam called out into the empty room, "My name is Sam. This is my brother, Dean, and our friend, Parker,"

"Honorary Winchester," I coughed into my hand and Sam chuckled, shaking his head at me just as a red-headed girl stepped out from the shadows.

"Sam? Not Sam Winchester?" she asked him, her voice timid and quiet.

Sam nodded in response, "Uh, yeah,"

Her blue eyes flicked to Dean's then as she came closer.

"And you're Dean? The Dean?" she questioned.

Dean looked taken aback for a split second before smirking and nodded to her, "Well, yeah. The Dean, I guess,"

I clenched my jaw, feeling a twinge of jealousy rise up inside of me.

"It's really you. Oh, my gosh. The angels talk about you. You were in hell, but Castiel pulled you out and some of them think you can help save us," she said in awe, walking up to Dean.

Long, red hair flipping over her shoulder as she turned, her eyes met mine and they darkened slightly.

"And some of them don't like you at all," she admitted and I bit my lip as she addressed all of us now, "They talk about you all the time lately. I feel like I know you,"

"So you talk to angels?" I asked her, arching an eyebrow while I crossed my arms over my Hey Violet t-shirt.

"Oh, um, no, no. No way. They probably don't even know I exist. I just kind of overhear them,"

"You overhear them?" Sam asked and she nodded.

"Yeah, they talk and sometimes I just hear them in my head," Anna confirmed.

"Like...right now?" Dean asked, eyes widened slightly.

"Not right this second. But a lot. And I can't shut them out. There are so many of them,"

As they talked to Anna, I wandered over to the large, stained-glass window and traced the engraving of Jesus with my fingers. His hair was dark, his face bearded, with eyes the color of almonds. It brought me a sense of peace I hadn't had in so long. Suddenly, the sound of a door being pushed open broke me from my thoughts. I turned to see Ruby rush in, yelling something about demons coming. Anna fled to hide in the closet then.

Quickly, I withdrew my knife from my belt and held it up towards the door as I walked up behind the guys. Suddenly, the door was kicked open once more and in walked a gray-haired man...with white eyes. Sam put a hand up, trying to use his newfound demon powers on him but the man just coughed into his hand, stopping him completely.

"That tickles. You don't have the juice to take me on, Sam," he sneered and briefly I put a reassuring hand on Sam's arm just before the demon sent him careening across the room and down the stairs.

Dean unsheathed the demon blade then and took a swing at the old man. But he caught Dean's hand, holding him back.

"Hello again, Dean," he smiled maliciously before punching him in the nose.

Racing up behind them, I slashed with my knife at the demon's arm and he hissed in pain. Crimson blood oozed from the wound and he turned dark eyes onto me. I smiled wickedly.

"Oops. Did that hurt?" I fake-pouted at him and he snarled before waving a hand, making me fall backwards onto the floor.

He turned back to Dean then, grabbing him by the collar.

"Come on, Dean. Don't you recognize me? Oh, I forgot I'm wearing a pediatrician. But we were so close. In hell," he said venomously.

"Alastair..." Dean breathed out.

With quick movements, I snatched the knife up from where it had fallen from my hands and lunged towards the demon. I drove it into his chest but he just chuckled in amusement.

"You're gonna have to try a lot harder than that, little girl." he bit out, shoving me so that I stumbled backwards.

I raced over to Dean then as the demon began to remove the knife, putting my hands on Dean's arms as he looked up at me. Blood was smeared across his lips from a gash he'd received from Alastair. Wiping it away with the back of my sleeve, I gazed into his green eyes before cupping his cheeks.

"Are you okay?" I asked in concern as I helped him stand up.

Pressing a chaste kiss to my forehead, he nodded before the three of us rushed over to the window. The collision was loud, glass shattering everywhere as we jumped through it. Tiny specs of purple, pink, and yellow rained onto the ground, getting caught in our hair as we hit the ground with impact. We lied there a moment, dazed before I lifted up my head. Shaking my head, shards of glass fell out and I coughed, glancing up at the boys before grinning.

"Can we do that again?!"
