Born under a bad sign 3
"Alright, are we done. I gotta find Lexi and Sam." Dean says.
"Would you give me two minutes to patch you up?" Jo asks. "You can't help either of them if you're bleeding to death. So how did you know he was possessed?"
~~~
Dean and Jo look over at the door as it swings open.
"Thanks for looking for me." Alexis smiles, sarcasm dripping off every word. She was soaking wet and blood covered her arm.
Dean rushes to her, setting a hand on her face. "Oh, thank God." He sighs. "You're okay."
Alexis scoffs. "I don't know what your definition of okay is, but it sure as hell ain't mine."
"I'll call you later, okay?" Dean glances back at Jo. "Come on, sweetheart." Dean sets a hand on her back, leading her out. Alexis tensed, her back going rigid.
~~~
Alexis hisses in pain as she pulls a shirt over her head. "Still no answer?" She asks, looking over at Dean, who's eyes were on the road.
"No."
"Don't worry. I'm sure Bobby will be fine."
~~~
Alexis leaned against the wall, watching as Dean slapped Sam awake.
"Dean, Alexis. Back from the dead." Sam says, glancing up at the devils trap painted on the ceiling above where the chair sat. "Getting to be a regular thing for you, isn't it? Like a cockroach."
"How about I smack that smartass right out to your mouth?"
"Oh, careful now. Wouldn't wanna bruise this fine packaging."
"Don't worry. This isn't gonna hurt Sam. You, on the other hand." Dean pours holy water on him causing him to scream in pain. "Feel like talking now?"
"Sams still my meat puppet. I'll make him bite off his tongue."
"No. You won't be in him long enough. Bobby."
Bobby circle the demon, reading the exorcism.
"See, whatever this bitch boy master plan you demons are cooking up, you're not getting Sam. You understand me?"
"He's not the only one I want." The demon hisses, his eyes darting to Alexis.
"You're not getting her either. Because I'm gonna kill every one of you first."
The demon laughs causing Bobby to pause. "You really think that's what this is about? The master plan? I don't give a rats ass about the master plan."
Dean glances at Bobby, who goes back to reading the exorcism.
"Oops. Doesn't seem to be working." The demons says. "See, I learned a few new tricks." He bows his head, muttering something in Latin and the fire roars causing the other three hunters to jump.
Lights flicker as wind blows through.
"This isn't going how I pictured. What's going on, Bobby?" Dean asks.
"Dean, somethings not right." Alexis moves toward him. Bobby pulls up Sams sleeve to reveal a symbol burned into his skin.
"Its a binding link." Bobby tells them. "Its like a lock. He's locked himself inside Sams body."
"What the hell do we do?"
"I don't know."
The ceiling cracks, breaking the devils trap. "There. That's better." The demon looks up, eyes completely black. He jerks his head, sending Bobby into the wall. He turns to Dean, who flies into the wall as well.
The demon looks at Alexis and for a second nothing happens, but Alexis felt something in her weaken and she hit the wall. Black spot dance in her vision.
The demon breaks the ropes, standing and moving toward Dean. "You know when people wanna describe the worst possible thing? They say its 'like hell'." He punches Dean. "Well, there's a reason for that. "Hell is like, uh...." He punches him again. "Well, its like hell. Even for demons."
Alexis tries to pull herself up, but she couldn't.
The demon punches Dean again. "Its a prison made if bone and flesh and blood and fear." He punches him again. "And you sent me back there."
"Meg?"
"No. Not anymore. Now I'm Sam."
"Well, I don't give a crap who you are, you've pissed me off." Alexis says causing the demon to turn around. She ducks as he punches at her.
She grabs his arm, twisting it behind his back. She kicks him, his knees buckle. Reaching up and grabbing her, the demon flips her over his shoulder. Alexis hit the ground hard, the air being forced out of her lungs.
The demon stood, pulling her up too. He easily threw her across the room and she hit the wall, the world going dark.
~~~
When Alexis came to she groaned, pulling herself up.
"Sammy?" She hears Dean ask. She makes her way over to Bobby, who stood beside the Winchesters that sat on the floor.
Sam looks between the other three hunters. "Did I miss anything?"
"You missed a hell of a lot, Sam." Alexis nods.
Dean leans over, punching Sam.
~~~
Alexis holds an ice pack to Deans head, giving him a small smile.
"By the way, you really look like crap, Dean." Sam says.
"Yeah, right back at ya."
"And I look great. As usual." Alexis jokes, the dark cloud that had been over her since she came back from the dead lifting.
"Yeah," Dean pats her knee, glad she was letting him this close. "you look great."
Bobby walks back in the room.
"What is it, Bobby?" Sam asks.
"You three ever hear of a hunter named Steve Wandel?"
"Why do you ask?" Dean shakes his head.
"Never knew a Steve." Alexis shrugs.
"Just heard from a friend. Wandel's dead." Bobby explains. "Murdered in his own house. You wouldn't know anything about that?"
"No, sir. Never heard of the guy."
"Dean." Sam starts.
"Good. Keep it that way." Bobby says. "Wandel's buddies are looking for someone or something to string up. They're not gonna slow down to listen to reason. You understand what I'm saying?"
"We better hit the road." Dean stands up. "If you can remember where we parked the car."
"Here take these." Bobby hands each one of them a charm on a string.
"What are they?" Sam asks.
"Charms. They'll fend off possession. That demons still out there. This'll stop it from getting back up in you."
"That sounds vaguely dirty, but thanks." Dean nods.
Alexis elbows him in the side. "Moron." She mutters.
"Oh, don't act like you were thinking the same thing."
"You're welcome." Bobby says. "You three be careful now."
"You too." Sam nods.
"And, Alex, its nice to see you up and about."
She smiles. "Yeah, I'm getting back to normal. Thank you, Bobby."
Bobby nods as Dean throws him the ice pack.
~~~
"You okay?" Dean glances at Sam before turning back to the road. "Sam. Is that you in there?"
"I was awake for some of it, Dean. I watched myself kill Wandel with my own two hands. I saw the light go out of his eyes."
"That must've been awful."
"That's not my point. I almost carved up Jo, too. But no matter what I did, you wouldn't shoot."
"It was the right move, Sam. It wasn't you."
"Yeah, this time. What about next time?"
"There won't be a next time." Alexis states, flicking a cigarette out the window as smoke tumbles past her lips.
"Sam, when dad told me I might have to kill you...it was only if I couldn't save you. Now, if its the last thing I do, I'm gonna save you."
A few seconds of silence pass before Dean starts laughing slightly.
"What?" Sam asks.
"Nothing."
"Dean, what?"
"Dude, you, like, full on had a girl inside you for, like, a whole week." Dean laughs. Sam and Alexis join in. "That's pretty naughty."
Alexis sinks in her seat, laughing uncontrollably. This was the first time she's laughed in weeks and it felt nice. For a second she didn't have that dark cloud over her. She didn't have horrible memories flashing through her mind.
