Chapter 3
I've never had a dream like this befor. It was dark, everything was black. I turned and walked for hours and when i called no one responded to me, only my echo. After hours of walking around i found a mirror and what I saw was horrible. It was me.. but i wasnt awake. My eyes were purple like someone gave me 2 black eyes. I was so pale. My blonde shiny hair was a dull looking yellow. My brown eyes were sad, dull brown, like a tree after it rains and it has no leaves to protect itself. I gently and slowly touched the mirror. Then it shattered.
I woke up startled and confused. You know the 5 seconds when you wake up from a dream and you dont know how you got to where you are? I was having one of those moments. I was in my living room, on the couch but I was laying on Tyler. I carefully looked up at his face, trying hard not to wake him. He was sleeping, of course the sky outside was a deep dark gray. He had his arm around me and his head was laying on the arm rest. He looked so peaceful it hurt. He looked like a God sent down from heaven. I gently lay my head back down on his chest, looking at the TV clock. It was 3 o'clock in the morning. I slowly closed my eyes and went back to sleep.
I woke up to a groaning noise, like the sound of someone who doesnt want to get out of bed. I knew Tyler was up, then i felt his eyes on me and he chuckled. I sighed and opened my eyes squinting in the sudden brightness of a new day. After my eyes adjusted i turned my head up to look at him. He was smiling down at me. I could tell he just woke up because his eyes were a deep,deep blue.
"Good Morning." He said chuckling.
"Morning." I said yawning and smiled. "How'd you sleep?"
"Pretty well actually yourself?" He chuckled.
"Pretty good. What time is it?" I asked as I looked at the TV. "Wow its already noon." I said shocked, and sat up on his lap and streched.
"Yeah. I guess I should go home." He said sitting up,keeping me on his lap.
I sighed. "Yeah I guess." I said standing up.
"I'll be back later. Then we can decide wat do to." He said as he stood up smiling.
"Ok see ya in a bit." I told him, giving him a hug.
"All right. Later." He said hugging me and turning to the door to leave.
I yawned and streched again as I heard the door shut, after he left I went to take a shower and clear my thoughts. Why did I have that odd dream? Why did I black out yesterday? 'Ok one at a time'I told myself. 'Why did i have that odd dream?' I tried to think of an answer but came up blank. 'Ok next question. WHy did i black out yesterday?' After thinking and thinking i still didnt have an answer. "Damn it" i said softly to myself.
I decided the shower wouldnt work and got out and got dressed. I grabbed a pair of Jeans and a red camisole and white top. Walking downstairs my headache came back. I clutched the railing so hard my skin turned whiter than it usually is. Taking deep breaths helped but i slowly walked down the stairs. 'What is wrong with me?' I thought, 'THis is not normal.' I finally made it down the stairs when the front door opened.
"Hey." Tyler said coming through the door.
"Hey." I said cringing as the door shut. It felt like a million fireworks went off all at once right in front of you.
"Are you ok?" He asked coming towards me.
"Yea I'm fine." I lied.
He saw right through that. "No your not. Where's your mom and dad?" He asked walking me to the couch.
"Probably left for work already. I never heard them. They must be really mad at each other. They must have not seen us..." I said trailing off. Instant silence. And this silence was awkward, even for Tyler.
"Yeah about last night...Clair.."
"No its ok. Nothing happened right?" I said a little embarassed. If he knew about how I had a big crush on him it would ruin our friendship.
"Clair I have to ask you something."
"Ok, shoot." I said smiling, trying to make it less awkward than it already is.
"Clair. You and I have been friends for a long time." He began.
"Yea since the beginning of this school year."
"Well Clair I-" He said but the phone ringing on the wall cut him off.
"Come on." I said walking carefuly to the kitchen to answer the phone. "Hello?" i said into the reciever.
"CLAIR WERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?" the voice boomed.
"Dad?" I asked?
"YES! WHERE WERE YOU LAST NIGHT?" he boomed. My father wasnt happy.
"I was sleeping on the couch." I replied. Trying hard to keep my voice steady.
"THATS NOT A GOOD ENOUGH ANSWER! WHEN I GET HOME YOU BETTER BE HOME!" he boomed then the line went dead.

Dean carried Cas to the entrance, where Zoey blocked their way.
“You’re not going anywhere” she said.
“Right, because you’re going to stop me” Dean said sarcastic. He pushed Zoey away and walked further to the entrance.
Zoey jumped his back. She tugged his hair and scratched his face.
Dean lay Cas down as careful as possible. He grabbed Zoey’s hair and pulled her off. He smacked her on the ground and kicked her wherever he could.
“I think you’re losing your angel juju” Dean said.
Zoey crawled towards Cas. She grabbed his collar and dragged him away, closer to the edge of the holy circle.
“What are you doing?” Dean asked scared.
He got his answer as Zoey emptied a few bottled of alcohol she had kept their in stock. She conjured a lighter and smiled evil at Dean.
“No!” Dean shouted, but Zoey dropped the lighter and caused another fire.

The first witness was the mother of the seven year old boy Cas had healed from a life threatening fever.
“I went to the kitchen and when I came back Mr. Allen, as he presented himself, had his hands all over my son. I…I think he was taking advantage of my son’s weakness”
“Objection!” Craig said. “I think everyone in Castle Rock knows about my client’s special abilities? Castiel can heal people with his bare hands, which is why Mrs. Jones had him come over in the first place. But to do his job he needs to touch his patient. He doesn’t even charge them”
“Of course he wouldn’t” Evan Trumble, Daphne’s attorney, said. “That’s because he knows that what he’s doing is wrong”
While Craig and Evan where quibbling, Cas looked sharp at Mrs. Jones.
“I never touched your son and you know it. I saved your son and this is not the right way to thank me”
Mrs. Jones seemed to cringe and looked around to find support or a way out.

Night fell and Meg was playing with her phone. She had gotten so used to the sound of wings, she didn’t bother to look up when Balthazar and Anna appeared.
“We just heard Castiel’s trial’s tomorrow, which is very unusual” Balthazar said. “Whatever Crowley’s up to, it’ll happen tomorrow”
Meg shrugged. Why did everyone expect her to care?
“That means you’ll have to be prepared” Anna said sharp.
Meg stopped playing games with her phone.
“We’re getting you out tonight” Anna said.
Meg looked up, happy as a child. “Finally” she said.
Balthazar conjured his sword, but then a bright light shone from somewhere ahead of them.
“Oh no” Meg said. “Oh no no no no no no!”
That didn’t exactly help, because an instant later both Balthazar and Anna were gone.
Meg sunk to the bottom of her cell.
“Great” she said grumpy. “Juuuust great”

Sam and Cas were at a motel in Colombia Falls, while Dean and Jo were outside. They were in front of the car and Dean had opened the hood. He was maintaining the Impala while Jo watched him.
“Can I help?” Jo offered.
“No” Dean said sharp. Jo gave him a strange look. “Not because you’re a girl. I’m sure you know how to fix a car. It’s personal, really”
“I get it” Jo said. “This is your baby. It’s hard to let go”
“Exactly” Dean said, glad Jo got the picture so quickly. He wiped his hands off a cloth and shut the hood. “I think we’re done here” He turned around. “Let’s get those two monkeys on their feet. We’re leaving town”
It happened in a flash. One moment Dean was standing on his two feet, the next he crashed against the car and fell on the ground.
“Dean!” Jo exclaimed. She bent on her knees and noticed blood coming out of his side.
