I Can't Go Back Now (Supernatural- Alexis Hammel)

Junk In My Trunk

Me and Sam walked up to Dean, who was laying on a picnic table. We'd stopped by a lake to eat, as I had really liked the view. "So Cas is human?" Sam asked.

Dean sat up. "Ish. I mean, he's got no grace."

"Okay, so where'd he crash land?"

"Called me from a payphone in Longmont, Colorado," I answered.

"I told him to head to the bunker."

"You think he could handle a trip like that?" Sam asked.

"Cas is a big boy," Dean said. "Things go all Breaking Bad, he knows our number. Right now, we have bigger worries."

"The fallen angels."

"Yeah," I said. "Thanks to Metatron we've got a couple thousand dazed fireballs walking around down here."

"What do you think they'll do?" Dean asked.

I shrugged. "I have no idea."

"What about Crowley?" Sam asked. "You kill him?"

"I'd love nothing more than to ice that limey bitch, but then I thought, what would Sam Winchester do?" Dean said.

"I would have stabbed him in the brain."

"Oh," Dean blinked. "Well, I figured the king of hell might know a few things."

"So Crowley's alive," Sam said, sighing as we walked to the car.

Dean opened the back, revealing Crowley hogtied in the back. "Oh yeah, he's the junk in my trunk."

I brought the bags in for the boys while they got Crowley out. When I walked in, an arrow flew at me, hitting the railing just below me. I jumped back, then walked forward and stared at it, confused.

Kevin jumped out from behind an overturned table. "Lexi! You're alive."

"Yeah, 'cause you're a crappy shot," I said, pulling the arrow out of the wooden railing. "Katniss."

"Sorry, it's been a bad couple of days," He said, walking around the table. "I haven't slept or eaten. I'm.. pretty backed up."

I waved a hand at him. "Okay, overshare."

"After we talked this place went nuts. There was an alarm and the machines were freaking out and the place locked down completely. There wasn't any signal, I thought the world was ending."

"Close," I said, grim. "The angels fell from heaven."

"What does that mean?"

"Nothing good," I gave a disappointing look at the crossbow in Kevin's hand. "Next time you think the world's ending, grab a gun. I have service," I told him, looking at my phone.

Kevin turned and flipped a switch on the wall, and the entire place powered up. "It's back online," He smiled. "Maybe when you opened the door from the outside it reset the system."

Sam and Dean came in with Crowley, who had a bag over his head. Kevin looked freaked out. "Everything good?" Dean asked, and I nodded. They took him to the archives room, and I followed.

I sat on the table while they tied him up. Dean took off the bag and earmuffs, then ripped the tape off of his mouth. "Jeez, watch the hair, would you?"

Dean punched him. "Never get tired of doing that."

"Homey."

"Here's how it's gonna go," I said. "You're going to give us the name of every demon on Earth, and who they're possessing."
