Dean

Dean was confused by the sudden appearance of the teenagers. The blonde was slightly terrifying, glaring at him with icy grey eyes that Dean had once thought only existed on one other person. She had a backpack and a strange tube shaped case that he'd seen Anna use before; not that Dean had ever seen what was inside it. The taller boy next to her was tan with messy black hair. His eyes also unnerved the hunter. He was fiddling with something in his pocket. The smaller boy stepped forward.

Nico.

Dean breathed a sigh of relief when he recognized his friend's adoptive brother. He relaxed a little as he started to explain to the new comers why they shouldn't go inside.

"She's inside. Sleeping. We found her..." the girl cut him off.

"I don't care, I want to see her." The taller boy hadn't said anything yet, but followed as they tried to get past the brothers.

"Whoa, whoa, hold up. No. She's sleeping and upset and doesn't need people we don't know barging in on her." Dean blocked the two strangers. The blonde snarled and started to attack him when the taller boy who'd followed her held her back.

"Annabeth, I'm sure she's fine. But attacking these men, who are protecting her, isn't helpful." He muttered to her quietly. The blonde, Annabeth, growled. She looked back at Nico.

"Death Boy so help me, I will send you to your father the hard way unless I see my sister in the next two minutes." The girl snarled through gritted teeth. Dean looked at Nico, the shock of seeing the three appear outside the motel wearing off. Anger set in quickly as he remembered some of what Anna had been saying.

"No." Dean said before Nico opened his mouth. The teenager frowned.

"What?" He asked, dark eyes narrowing in irritation. The boy's hand drifted to the black sword strapped to his side, which Dean knew he could use. Deans stood his ground anyways.

"I said no. Sam and I found her blitzed out of her mind mumbling and crying about how today was special and that she was bad because you were angry. Now I don't know what the fuck is going on with you two, but it sure as hell shouldn't have pushed her to this. So no." Dean crossed his arms. Sam shot him a look Dean didn't bother to decipher. His younger brother backed him up anyways. Annabeth rounded on the smaller boy.

"What in Hades did you do Nico?" Her voice was dangerous. Nico swallowed hard.

"I, I... I was angry. And, I, well, I left her after I found out and I've kinda been... ignoring her?" His sentence got quieter and quieter until his last words were barely audible. But it was enough. Annabeth let out a string of angry sounding words in a language that Dean recognized only because Anna had spoken it before. Meanwhile the tall boy next to her restrained the angry blonde. But Dean easily recognized the look of familial disappointment on his face as he looked at Nico. Apparently the kid had really fucked up.

"... of all people, you should know better than that!" Annabeth had abruptly switched back to English. Nico hung his head in shame.

"I know." It was all the younger boy offered. Annabeth swung back around to face the brothers.

"Now move out of my way or I swear to the gods I will make you. And I promise it will hurt." She threatened. Dean struggled not to obey immediately. She held herself with a similar confidence and grace Anna did. But less like a predator, more like a soldier. This girl was used to giving and receiving orders. Dean didn't move.

"Sorry sweetheart but I don't know you. I don't know your boyfriend, and I'm not letting Nico near her until she is sober and willing. Come back in the morning." Sam stepped around Dean.

"How did you find her anyways?" Dean swore silently. His brother was right. How the hell did three teenagers find them in the middle of the night, in some random town in the middle of the midwestern United States? The taller boy held up a device.

"When we heard she was actually alive we had Leo activate the tracker in her bike. Annabeth and me were the closest and we dragged this idiota along to find our favorite missing family member." Dean frowned. How many people were in her family? Why did she never talk about any of them? And who says favorite missing family member so casually? He sighed, deciding it was a discussion for another day. Then they heard the bloodcurdling scream from inside.

Everyone bolted for the door.
