Final Chapter- Three Months Later
Valerie's POV
The car was silent on the way to the Gateway to hell. Though, I could feel the tension in the car. Dean never looked away from the road, Sam kept looking out the window and Castiel looked straight ahead. Though, the worst part was that I had to keep my promises. I have to kill my father.
I tried to get everyone into conversation, but nothing worked. I just want to know what everyone was thinking. "Can someone just say something?!" I yell. Dean pretends not to hear me. I sigh. The last three months we've all drifted apart. "Please."
"Maybe, I'll say something," Dean starts. "But only if you explain where you've been disappearing to all the time!" I grit my teeth and scowl.
"Okay, I went..." I stop myself. He told me not to say that I've been visitin Him. Everyone thinks He's dead.
"Fine, conversation over." Dean replies. I could tell that by the way Sam was sitting, he was rolling his eyes.
"Dean, maybe she can't say, like she's been saying all this time?" Sam asks.
"Exactly!" I agree. But Dean just continues to look ahead. We all shift uncomfortably in the car.
"Castiel do you know?" Sam says. I can't believe he's taking Dean's side on this! Castiel looks at me. Ever since I met him he's had that creepy look about him.
Dean interrupts. "Cas, I want an answer!"
Castiel continues to look at me and I start to get uncomfortable. His eyes go wide. "I can't believe I didn't notice this before." He says.
"What?" Sam asks eagerly. I shake my head to Castiel.
"God's alive?" I face-palm and sigh. Sam and Dean look back. They were just as surprised as Castiel. When Dean looks back to the road he hits the breaks.
The seatbelt locks and I start to cough. "What was that for?" Sam yells. When we all look up we see them.
"Were here!" Dean says. We get out of the Impala and meet the gang of demons. Dad and Grey were in the front of the group. My stomach clenches when I see just how many demons were behind them. There were 4 of us and 5000 of them. Before I know it, Sam and Dean make a break for the gateway. It just stands there like the remains of a broken down castle.
The demons follow us to the gate. They all scream like they were angry. Just about halfway to the gate we're stopped by even more demons in front of us. Face it, we're screwed!
"Hello, boys." Dad says to Sam, Dean and Castiel. Crowley walks up beside me and Grey goes beside Sam. We all stand in a circle with demons surrounding us. The order went me, Crowley, Castiel, Sam, Grey, Dean then me again.
"Hey." Dean says awkwardly. Almost immediately I put my knife up to my father.
Dad puts his hands up an the demons start to get noisy again. "You're own father, Valerie?"
"I have to. My whole life, I was lied to. Then, when I found out that you, YOU, were my father I didn't like it!"
"But we have so many fond memories together." He pleads.
"I don't care, it still makes you a lying, stealing filth of a father. Elizabeth was right to kill you." I say. When I finished I was out of breath and turned red.
"Okay, then." Crowley looks beside him and puts an angelic sword up to Castiel. "I guess I don't have to say much about you. I just don't like you." Castiel turns and puts his angelic sword up to Sam.
"Woah, Cas!" Sam yells. "I thought we made a deal!"
"Only if you keep you're side of the deal." Castiel threatens. This whole things was turning into a huge circle of threats. Sam takes out his Demon's knife and points it at Grey. I scream.
"What are you doing Sam?!"
"I have to do it!" He replies. I start to cry. Not my brother, not again. Before I could put my weapon down, Grey grabs Dean and pulls out a knife. Dean grunts and pulls his gun out. He doesn't point it anywhere yet.
"Think about what you're doing, Grey." Dean threatens.
"Oh, I rather not stop." My brother replies, pulling Dean down some more. At that Dean readies the gun and then points it towards me. I start to shake.
"Dean!" I scream.
"No, Val. I don't want to hear it! I've made promises to kill you. And I don't think you want to know just how many." Dean arms shakes. Tears fall quickly down my face.
I look away from Dean. "Sam, why kill my brother?"
"I've made deals." He replies.
"So is this it? We just all made deals to kill one another?" I start. My voice shakes with every word. "What good would that do?"
Sam and Crowley shift uncomfortably. The demons behind us quiet down. Castiel speaks up, "Well, I don't have to worry." Dad puts his weapon higher, but it doesn't faze Castiel at all. "Crowley, the first time I met you, I tried to get that potion."
"But I kept it away from you. It's locked away." Dad says.
"Nope." Castiel throws the round bottle on the ground. The very one I got from behind the huge door. Crowley looked shocked. "Nobody can kill me now!" Castiel lowers his weapon on Sam. Quickly, Sam stabs Grey. I scream again and look down.
When I look back up, everyones switched there targets to Sam... Except for Dean. Is he really going to kill me? Sam puts his Demon's knife up to Crowley.
"Are you guys all really that stupid?" The King asks. "You can't kill me!"
"Oh, ya?" Dean speaks up. "Cause I've got the potion. Dean takes out a vial, but keeps the gun pointed at me. Now that Grey wasn't holding him anymore, he could move freely.
Crowley laughs. "I see, but you're missing one ingredient." I look at Dean to see father was right. "I told you, you can't kill me." Everyone looks back at Sam who has cleared his throat.
"Val, haven't you been seeing God?" He asks. Dean eyes open wide and he looks at me.
"Yes."
"Then you have the last ingredient." Dean assumes. I tilt my head, not catching along.
"What is it?" I ask.
"A present from the Lord." I stop and think back at the time where we went tobogganing. Yes! I put my bag on the ground and unzip the zipper. When I take out the little test-tube, Father snorts.
"I wouldn't believe him if I were you, Valerie." He says nervously. I raise my arm to hold the weapon back up to father. I stand up and twist the top off of the tube. "No, stop, Valerie!"
I walk over to Dean and put the glowing liquid in his potion. When I look back at my Father, I smile. "I'm sorry, but you're a bad man!" I say quoting Elizabeth.
Dean throws the vial at Crowley. The ground around him starts to sizzle. He looks up in fear. Crowley's soul get pulled toward the gate. It gets sucked in.
Suddenly, all the demons runs at us 4 people in rage. We take out our weapons and we were ready to fight. I was pumped. I could tell that Elizabeth was finally happy with me. After all she hated Father.
We get through a bunch a demon's before my back hits Sam's. "How do we close the gate?"
"I don't know, but we better do it soon! Crowley's going to get back out!" Dean says after backing up into us.
"God told me about something that I could do, but I don't know what it is!" I say after killing a demon. The demon's soul flies towards the gate. "Look! Souls are getting back out!" Ghosts were escaping faster then we could send Demon's in.
"Think of something!" Dean yells.
"Sam, what else did the article say about the Huntress?" I ask.
"Umm..." He mumbles.
"Hurry up, Sammy!" Dean says. While Sam thinks, I see Castiel go around just slaying demons like crazy.
"Umm... All I know is that she tries to keep the gate open! Sorry!" He replies. That's it!
I run towards the gate leaving Sam and Dean's back vulnerable. "What are you doing?!" Dean yells.
"The Huntress keeps the gate open as long as she's alive!" Sam and Dean look at me like I'm crazy. "It has to be done!"
"Alright, just try to keep it open until all the demons get in!" Sam says. Dean hits him.
"No, you aren't killing yourself!" Dean protests. I pull out my Demon's knife and stab myself. I groan. Coughing up blood, I twist the knife in my stomach. Pain runs everywhere through my body. Once the pain reaches my heart, I know I've done well.
I get lifted off of my feet and I start to get sucked into the gate. Dean runs over to me yelling. I grab on to the door. My face was wet with tears and my arms start to jiggle.
"Val..." He chokes. With one of my hands, I pull off my necklace. The one that the brothers got for me. "Don't let go, we can do this." Dean pleads. Sam and Castiel run over to us.
"Don't worry." I struggle to say. I hand my necklace to Dean. "I'll be back." I say before letting go. The last thing I saw before the door closing was Sam and Castiel take Dean away.
