[IC] Supernatural - Hell On The Horizon

[Wolvena]

Esme Stirling

Esme didn’t quite catch Natalia’s eye roll. Her gaze was on Annabeth and Carson, still trying to figure out what this girl was and also what was going on between the two. She took in a deep breath and slowly let it out to calm herself from the current events. Esme looked back at Natalia when she spoke about what their plan was and nodded in response. “Yes, I do have a car to follow.” she responded.

“I just came from Pontiac.” she thought to herself. Looks like she’d be back tracking so she could meet up with everyone. Oh well, it would be worth it. Esme couldn’t help but laugh a bit at the last bit of what Natalia said and give a small smile. “I never met Sam.” she told her. “It was just Dean and his father when I met him.” She watched as Natalia released Carson from the devil’s trap, thinking about how the reunion would go.

“I have to agree with you on that, I’m pretty sure it will be awkward.” Esme still hadn’t put her gun away. She still didn’t trust Carson enough to put it away, even if he seemed to be trying to help AnnaBeth. After the experiences she’s had with demons, she just couldn’t bring herself to trust one now. “I’ll be ready to go once I get my stuff from my room.” she told Natalia.

AnnaBeth and Cason

AnnaBeth glared at Cason, and at the mittens again before snatching them, and putting them on her hands. She stepped back from him, still keeping him at arms length or further away, “I’m doing this only until we find Dean Winchester. After that…I want answers. No more deflecting, or lies.”

Cason nodded, shrugging at her as if to say he heard her, “I still love you, you know…”

“Shut up.”, AnnaBeth whispered. She watched as Natalia knelt and opened the circle Cason was trapped in. After this, there were several talks that were going to be had. Starting with Cason.

Cason smirked, stepping forward and waiting for Natalia to rise to his eye level before leaning close enough to touch noses with her, “I wouldn’t make a habit of trapping me…”

He leaned back and clapped his hands, “So! Where’s the address?”

——

Dean Winchester

Dean entered the hotel, surprised by how much it seemed like a swanky dig for Sam. After getting through the initial smirk, he turned to take the stairs. He could feel Sam here. The humanity almost oozed off the kid and the hope in Dean’s chest rose, along with the fear of what was going to greet him at the door.

Turning to Mika with slightly misty eyes, he placed his hands on his hips, “I don’t know if I can do this. Can either of you honestly tell me you don’t believe Sam has done anything?”

“Well, princess…there’s only one way to find out. Knock on the damn door…”, Bobby whispered from behind Mika.

With a big sigh, hoping Mika would talk him out of it, but knowing she wouldn’t, he knocked on the door.

NATALIA WINCHESTER

When Cason mentioned about still loving Annabeth, Natalia couldn't help but roll her eyes. She never understood why people would just fall in love, especially in this world. In her eyes it just made someone weak and distracted, that opinion still was valid onto Dean and Mika as well. He may be one brother and she may be a friend but after how Mika emotionally just broke down from Dean's death Natalia just saw it as more solid evidence that love made one weak. She was so thankful that she never found an interest in finding someone special or 'the one' that she felt she couldn't live with. She much preferred one night stands if she was desperate for intimate company but otherwise, she couldn't give two shits about love. Her eye roll however moved into a smirk when Annabeth told Cason to shut up whilst she was stil squatting down scratching the gap in the trap, whilst no one other than possibly Esme would be able to see her react to the interaction between the partners.

Once she stood up and stepped back one step, she watched Cason with a hawk as he moved from the devil's trap and got right up close to her which she hated. She just glared at him as he spoke to her, "I wouldn't make a habit of talking to me like that" she sneered back, before pretending they didn't just have that exchange of words. "Need to know basis, you'll be in my car with me and Annabeth where I can keep an eye on both of you, Esme can follow in hers, address will be in my satnav. Esme, you can get the address off my phone just incase we get separated on the road for whatever reason." She explained. "So let's get moving" she said, handing Esme her phone with the message that had the address on it so she could copy the address.

MIKA CHAMBERS AND SAM WINCHESTER

Walking into the hotel, Mika had similar thoughts as Dean without even knowing it thinking it was a bit more swanky and classy, even for Sam which seemed completely out of character for him. But then it did fit the whole not wanting to be found tactic he was doing. Going for the places and rooms that they wouldn't think of to throw them off his scent so to speak. She walked up the stairs with them all and down the corridor to the door that had Sam on the other side. At Dean's words, Mika knew that he was hoping they would talk him out of this reunion but she wasn't going to do that. She knew deep down that no matter what the boys would be reunited at some point, and this situation honestly reminded her of times when one was a kid and needed a band aid ripped off, causing one to brace themselves before feeling the stinging pain of the adhesive ripping away from the skin. Instead of saying any words to him, she just placed her hand on his shoulder and gave it a comforting squeeze to say 'you got this'.

Sam, before the others arrived and knocked on the door listened to Benjamin, glad that he was standing down and not causing a massive drama about Ruby being in the room with him. He cocked an eyebrow when benjamin about others turning up at some point curious to who it would be, not even thinking for a minute that it would be his family. "you don't have to trust her, just trust that I do and when I say she won't be a problem" he told the man in front of him, but before he could anything more there was a knock on the door. He stepped passed Benjamin and to the door, making a second free to glance back at the room of people, seeing Ruby just give him a shrug, before looking back at the door and opening it quickly, coming face to face to Dean, Bobby and Mika. He felt absolutely stunned into silence when he went to dive for the holy water and silver incase this was some trick.

Ruby looked over his shoulder from where she was and went wide eyed, she could tell Dean was no demon or shifter just by his aura, deciding this was the perfect time to get the hell out of dodge. So she got up, grabbed her things and acted like a girl who Sam merely picked up at a bar and snuck out. "I'll speak to you soon" she smiled to SAm before making a quick dash for the exit.

Benjamin
Benjamin looked at Bobby, Sam and Dean and then respectfully stepped outside , looking for the others who were coming. IF he could be a guard dog, he could protect his allies, or maybe get the drop on the enemy before they could carry out their assault. He had his Romani putsi bag and jangled it above his head, muttering some kind of magic spell, which rendered him invisible to demons. Then he would make his way back to just outside the hotel room. He turned his gaze to his surroundings, hoping to spot anything if it was a danger.

[JustAnna]

AnnaBeth and Cason

Cason rolled his eyes and playfully mocked Natalia. He hated riding in cars. Such a simple minded way of moving around. If she had just told him the damn address, he would have poofed them anywhere they wanted to go. Sighing, he threw his hands up at the fact that no one seemed to find him funny, and gestured for the ladies to lead the way.

——

Dean Winchester

Dean raised his hands at Sam, dodging him as he reacted exactly how Dean expected, “Hey Sammy! Stop…Bobby’s already tested me. It’s me!”

At the same time that Dean was attempting to stop his brother from murdering him, Bobby ran up behind Sam, throwing an arm around his giant shoulders. The arm came to rest against Sam’s throat, his fingers on his chin as he whispered in his ear, “Son. I wouldn’t have brought him here if I didn’t test him first. How the hell do you think we found you? Put the knife down. That’s your brother…”

“Sammy…it’s me.”, Dean whispered, smirking at Sam.

[Wolvena]

Esme Stirling

Esme cringed and also gave an eye roll at Carson's confession of love to AnnaBeth. She stifled a laugh at Natalia’s eye roll and AnnaBeth's response and glare. It seemed he had burned the bridge between them, but AnnaBeth was right. She deserved answers. The thought of love for herself. She never really gave it much thought, since she spent so much time alone. If she was being honest with herself, she didn’t really know if it was possible for her to find love. Especially in this line of business. Esme watched Natalia for a moment, not catching the words spoken between her and Carson.

She was about to leave to grab her thing when Natalia spoke about who was going with who, then handed her the phone. Esme took the phone from her, then tucked her gun away so she could pull out her own phone from her pocket. She put the address into her phone so she’d have it just in case, like Natalia said. She then passed Natalia’s phone back to her as she put her own phone back into her pocket. She watched Carson’s actions as he found he hadn’t been funny and shook her head. She then stepped away from the doorway to head to her room, but stopped and turned back to the others.

“I’ll meet you out there.” she said, mostly to Natalia. “I’m going to go grab my things.” With that said, she headed off to her room, which she was glad was just around the corner. After reaching the room and opening the door, she stepped in, letting the door close behind her. She quickly gathered her belongings, being sure not to mix her dirty clothes with her clean ones. She had made the mistake before and didn’t plan on doing it again. Once she had everything, she left the room key on a table and exited the room once more.

Esme made her way down the hall and to the door that lead to the parking lot. She pushed her way through the door, then went to her car, opened the trunk and tossed in her things. Walking to the driver's door, Esme looked around for Natalia before placing her hand on the handle and opening the door. She could feel something building up within her, but couldn’t quite put her finger on what it was.

[FuriePhoenix]

NATALIA WINCHESTER

Cason's mocking of her didn't go amiss but she decided she was going to just ignore it for now and focus on Esme getting the address from her phone and grabbing herstuff for her own room. "Annabeth you're welcome to ride up front..." she begansaying, "you" she stared at Cason, still not fully knowing the guy's name she realised, or if he had mentioned it she didn't pay any attention to hearing it, "can ride in back and if you mess my car up you're going straight back to Hell" she warned. Like Esme, she didn't trust the guy in the slightest but she was also not naiive and let Cason just poof them to Pontiac as a group. From the way Annabeth reacted to finding out her boyfriend was a demon, she decided it was by far for the best that Annabeth didn't ride in the back with him or she would end up playing mother and either scolding them both or killing them all just on principle for pissing her off. With everything ready, she left the room and lead the way to her car, a black chevrolet ss sedan 2014 model. It wasn't nearly as classic as Dean's '67 impala or Mika's '66 model, but she loved it nonetheless. She kept meticulous inside with its leather interior and built in player and satnav. She unlocked the car as she saw Esme was waiting for them all before opening her own car door and getting inside after she opened her trunk and put her stuff inside. She pulled her phone out and tapped in the address into her sat nav and got it set up whilst she waited for the others to get in.

MIKA CHAMBERS AND SAM WINCHESTER

Sam let Benjamin exit after he opened the door to find his family standing outside the room. He was actually glad that Benjamin made his own decision to leave as he did not want to deal with what was to come next with him in the room also. He didn't even pay attention to what Benjamin was doing outside in the hallway as he was too busy being restrained by Bobby for attempting to attack his brother. He gritted his teeth in annoyance, not believing it was truly Dean as he looked at both Dean and Mika in the eyes. "They're telling the truth Sam, it's really him. We did all the tests and it's truly him!" Mika said, helping Dean and Bobby out. It seemed to do the trick as well as Sam relaxed in Bobby's grip, shrugged out of it and instantly hugged his brother tightly. "Dean? H-How?" he stammered, pulling back after a moment to really take in his brother was back, and gesturing for them all to get inside the room.

Mika noticed what Benjamin was doing and wondered what was with the guy, but right now her main focus was fully on Sam and Dean. She was baffled when Sam asked his brother how he was back, having also been partly convinced that Sam was behind all this, even if she was one hundred percent convinced of it because of the hand print on Dean's arm.

[JustAnna]

AnnaBeth and Cason

As they reached the vehicles Cason raised an eyebrow at Natalia’s ride, “This is you? It doesn’t seem very….Winchester-y.”

Rolling his eyes at her wanting him to ride in the back, he held his arms out in a childish defiance, “Wanna cuff me, darlin? Oh wait…you can’t. But you want to?”

AnnaBeth growled a bit under her breath, her mittened hands instinctively held in front of her. They were wet. It was awkward, and honestly…they itched a little. She opened the car door and sat down inside, “GET IN THE CAR!”

Cason jumped, still a little worried about the dam that was starting to crack in AnnaBeth’s head. Giving a sheepish smile, he climbed into the back seat.

“Pontiac, Illinois…We’re going to see the Winchesters. This should be fun.”, he muttered, trying to make out the location on Natalia’s navigation.

[After a brief interaction, we can jump to Sam’s hotel if you want]

——

Dean Winchester

Dean welcomed the big hug, almost fending Sam off when he broke free of Bobby. Instead, he took the weight of Sam’s body full force, wrapping his arms around his massive body, “Did you get bigger? Ah…maybe I just missed you.”

Dean stepped fully inside the room with Bobby, after releasing from Sam, “We were going to ask you the same thing. What you been doing the last few months, Sammy?"

[FuriePhoenix]

NATALIA WINCHESTER

When Cason commented on her ride she couldn't help but smirk, she was about to make some quip as a comeback to his remark when he couldn't resist making some smart ass comment about cuffing him up. "you wish" she replied, brushing off his remark before she had gotten in the driver's side. Sure he had a handsome face but 1) he was dating Annabeth, or at least was depending on what Annabeth decided on, 2) he was a demon and there was absolutely no way she would ever go down that path and 3) she wasn't desperate. Luckily for her, Annabeth spoke at him before she could, smirking at the attitude the woman seemed to have. Satisfied that they were all strapped in, she started the ignition and waited for Esme to give her the signal that she was ready to go before starting the drive to Pontiac.

Every now and then during the drive, she kept looking back to make sure Cason was actually behaving whilst asking her much need questions to get much needed answers from the two of them. The moment she could, she put her foot down to try and shorten the journey but never once did she attempt to ever lose Esme. Esme, now that was someone else she wanted to know more about and she couldn't help but wonder how Mika was going to take to this woman who supposedly met Dean when they were teenagers.

MIKA CHAMBERS AND SAM WINCHESTER

Sam had to smirk at Dean's comment about what he looked like now, and he had to admit he was certainly not the scrawny lanky little brother that Dean last knew. He had changed a lot in just four months. "Hunting mostly, the usual. I tried to bring you back Dean, believe me I tried. But no demon would make a deal. They enjoyed seeing us lot without you. We all tried everything we could but no dice. Went hunting with Nat for a while but she got wind of a different case to me and insisted on going alone, not heard from her since, or more like I've been ignoring her calls so I know she's alive before you ask" he replied.

"he knows Nat is safe, I told him as such" Mika told Sam, "But that means... if you didn't succeed in bringing Dean back, and we didn't, then who did? You don't think Nat would have...do you?" she asked.

[JustAnna]

AnnaBeth and Cason

When they arrived in the parking lot of the hotel in Pontiac, Cason slapped both front seats excitedly, even though he was everything but excited, “I’ll be back. If Sam Winchester is here, I’m assuming he’s being followed, especially if his obsessive ‘sacrifice myself for my brother’ brother is alive…”

Cason used air quotes as he spoke, before disappearing. He quickly reappeared in the backseat with a grunt.

“Awesome. No demons! Now, we wait for ol’ whats her name to get here, and we can go say hello to our heroes.”

Annabeth stared at the hotel, straight at the window where Sam and the rest were inside. She could feel something in her, wanting to enter the room. Whoever or whatever was through that window, it was what she came to find out.

——

Dean Winchester

Dean shook his head, staring at Sam, “No. I don’t think she would. She would know better than that. If Sam couldn’t get a deal, she sure as hell couldn’t.”

He stood up and took a drink from a beer sitting on the table. It was stale, but any beer tasted good at this point, “So, we need to find out what dug me out. Maybe it’s something to do with Sam’s powers or whatever. What do you think? And how are you alive? Lilith zapped you to Oz didn’t she?”

[Wolvena]

Esme Stirling

Once Esme saw Natalia and the other two, she got into her car and shut the door. Put the key into the ignition and gave the key a turn, and her car roared to life. She set up her navigation system just in case they were to get separated on the way there. She kept the inside immaculate. She couldn’t let herself leave things lying around on the seats or on the floor. Plus, she could hear her parents' voices in her head if she did. Once she had everything set, she looked up to see that Natalia was ready to go.

She put her car in reverse and backed out of the parking spot, then into drive once out of the spot. She gave the signal she was ready to go, then followed Natalia out of the parking lot. Once on the road, she turned on the radio and jammed out to some tunes, all the while saying close behind Natalia. On the way there, she thought about just how this reunion between her and Dean would go. Would it be a good one, would he even remember her after all this time? She could feel her nerves bottling up within her, which she tried to keep from getting to her too much.

It was an odd feeling for her, since she had never had a severe case of nervousness get to her. She could only hope that this whole reunion would turn out well for the both of them and any that were around. When Natalia sped up, Esme did the same. It was easy to see that Natalia wanted to get there as soon as she could. She herself felt the same way, but probably for different reasons than Natalia. The entire way there, she kept herself entertained with music and singing along to the songs she knew, which were most of them.

Once they pulled into the parking lot of the hotel, she gave a heavy sigh, then pulled into a spot next to Natalia’s car. She killed the engine and stepped out of her car, stuffing her keys into her jacket pocket. She even made sure she had her gun on her, just in case she needed it. She waited on the others to exit Natalia’s car so they could head inside. Her plan was to hang back a bit when they reached Sam’s room, just kind of hang by the door till all the Winchesters had a chance to catch up.

[FuriePhoenix]

NATALIA WINCHESTER

Pulling into a parking spot when they reached their destination via a reverse manouver so she didn't have to reverse back out again, she parked up, stopped the sat nav and turned the ignition off before removing the keys and shoving them in her jacket pocket as she always did. She glanced out the window to wait for Esme before glacning in her rearview mirror when Cason declared he was going to do a 'demon check sweep'. She was about to stop him but it was too late, he was gone and back in what felt like a blink of the eye, only to confirm that yes they were safe from any demons and could safely leave the car and head up to the hotel room where her half brothers and friend were. She glanced at Annabeth, seeing how she was staring up at one particular window and found it incredibly intriguing but for now, she was going to keep her observations to herself. It only took a matter of a minute if that for Esme's car to pull in and park up beside her, to which she gave her a nod of acknowledgement and respect for being able to keep up with her driving speeds that probably weren't entirely the legal limits.

"Right, lets get this done and both of you keep quiet to begin with. No weird talk, no sass, zilch" she said to them both but the warning was mostly aimed at Cason. She then got out of the car gesturing for the other two to do the same and like Esme, stashed her gun behind her out of sheer habit. With everyone ready to head on up, she lead the way inside and upstairs hoping that Sam truly didn't do something stupid to bring Dean up from Hell. She had no idea what she was going to walk into but at least she knew it really was Dean and not a fake. Reaching the room in question she took in a deep breath and knocked on the door....

MIKA CHAMBERS AND SAM WINCHESTER

Sam nodded his agreement that he didn't see any situation where Natalia would have suceeded in bringing Dean back. As much as she did care about him, they both knew it was Sam who was closer to Natalia than Dean, despite their similarities. Even if it was solely because he gave Natalia a chance and sided with her when Dean spent a while being suspicious of her. He then looked at Dean who drank the stale beer and thought it was so typical of him to do which only brought home that it really was him and not an imposter. At the question of how he was still alive, he just shrugged, "I dunno, guess I was just lucky and she didn't want me dead. I saw a bright light and when I next opened my eyes you were gone and I was still there." he explained. "And Mika was too busy mourning over your body that she didn't even really notice what happened either and Nat if you remember was still outside" he added.

It was then he heard another knock on the door and sighed disgruntled, wondering who the hell it was now. "That'll be Nat" Mika told him, making him look at her with a raised eyebrow, "Look, I'm not gonna keep your sister out of the loop okay? She deserves to see Dean and find answers just as much as the rest of us" she said back at him, making him then sigh, walk over to the door and open it to see Natalia there, but not only that there were three more people, and three he didn't know. "uh Nat..?" he questioned.

[JustAnna]

AnnaBeth and Cason

AnnaBeth kept her eyes on the window as she carefully exited the car. She simply nodded at Natalia’s words and followed her closely. Cason also followed closely behind, signaling with his hand for Esme to follow.

As they walked up the stairs, Cason sniffed the air, almost like a dog. He had missed something. An old friend…well…biblically speaking. If Ruby was here, why was she back in the Winchester drama?

Raising his eyebrows, he shrugged, and placed a hand on AnnaBeth’s arm, which was quickly shrugged off with a small shock of electricity. Dammit. That wall was going to shatter when she saw Sam Winchester.

As Annabeth stood in front of the door, a buzzing came through that intrigued her. It was the same buzzing she heard when they were outside. When the door opened, it was is if a halo appeared above the man’s head as he stood there. Without saying a word as he spoke, she jolted forward, throwing both mittened hands around his waist, clinging to Sam for dear life.

“Oh shit…”, Cason whispered.

——

Dean Winchester

Nodding at Sam’s explanation, Dean glanced at Mika. She had mourned him, but swore she hadn’t brought him back. But…she had mourned him. As the knock on the door knocked him out of his gaze.

He stood carefully, even as Mika explained who the knock belonged to, and pulled his gun from his jacket. He placed a round in the chamber carefully with the slide and stepped up behind Sam.

“Hey Natalia!”, he sang out gleefully, “And friends…whoa hey…um…”

He broke off his sentence as Sam was hugged tightly, and chuckled.

“Another one of your lady friends?”

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

@FuriePhoenix@AnnaBeth

"Excuse me, Sam and Dean, Annabeth and Cason are both demons."
"What the hell is going on here? Was this a trap to lure me in and turn me into Astaroth's puppet?"
"Don't tell me that you Winchesters have turned! That would be a great disappointment, and very frustrating."

"I must say this is very, VERY suspicious. Sam, tell me what the Hell is going on here!"
Dean had no idea who Benjamin was, but at the moment, Benjamin was to much in the fight or flight response system to care or explain any further."
It was clear that Benjamin was about to lash out, run, or both unless Sam said the right thing. His hands were ready to start blasting holes in the hotel building, and the look on his face had the power to stun an elephant with it's intensity.

[Wolvena]

Esme Stirling

Esme had seen the nod of acknowledgement and respect and gave a small smile in return. It wasn’t everyday she received one of those and appreciated it. She stood there a moment, waiting for everyone to get out of the car and collect anything they needed or wanted to take with them. Esme followed the three even before being signaled by Carson, who she glared at for the unnecessary gesture. As she went in and went up the stairs, she brought up the rear. The walk up to the room was quiet except for the sounds of their footsteps.

Upon reaching the door, she hung back a little behind everyone as Natalia knocked on the door. She focused on the door as it opened to reveal a tall man with broad shoulders, who she assumed was Sam. To her surprise, AnnaBeth ran to him and wrapped her arms around him. The action caused her to raise an eyebrow. It was then she heard a familiar voice from behind Sam, but she couldn’t see him at the moment. She then heard another voice. She didn’t quite care for the tone. She looked over at Benjamin and held up her hands.

“Easy now! No one is here for you!” she told him. “Just calm yourself.” Esme looked around at those around her, then back to Benjamin. She could feel the tension in the air, and Benjamin’s actions weren't making things any easier. “I think you’re mistaken about her being a demon.” she said, gesturing towards AnnaBeth. As she stood there, she couldn’t help but wonder who this guy was and why he seemed so antsy right now.

[FuriePhoenix]

MIKA CHAMBERS, NATALIA AND SAM WINCHESTER

Mika looked back at Dean when he glanced at her and wondered why he was looking at her, giving him a confused 'what is it?' look before they were seemingly interrupted from their silent non started conversation by a knock on the door, to which she had to explain that it would no doubt be Natalia and she was hardly going to keep their sister out of the loop when it came to this situation. Seeing the door open, she saw that Natalia looked well but she wasn't expecting to see such an entourage of people with her and wondered who the hell these three added people were that were also here. This was a family matter in Mika's eyes and strangers had no right being here, but she wasn't going to start up any drama over it just yet.

Natalia saw Dean in the room by Mika and Bobby and couldn't help but smile genuinely when she saw her annoying half brother was indeed very much alive and looking rather well all things considering. "Hey Dean!" she greeted back, and was about to go hug him when Annabeth took them all by very much surprise by flinging her arms right around Sam. Sam leaned back with his arms up slightly wondering what on earth was going on. A look of bafflement, awkwardness and utter confusion all written straight across his face. At Dean's smartass remark, he looked over his shoulder and scowled at him, "I don't know who she is! Or why she's hugging me!" He replied, tentatively trying to peel the girl off of him. "Annabeth, maybe you should let my brother go yeah?" Natalia spoke, putting her hand carefully on the girl's shoulder to try and help her brother out, when Benjamin spoke up and started lashing out verbally about who Cason and Annabeth were, making Natalia roll her eyes and turning to benjamin.

She was honestly glad that Esme spoke up first to try and calm the man down because she was convicned that she probably would have pinned the guy against a wall and demanded to know who the hell he was to be lashing out the way he was. To compose herself, she pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed before looking at Benjamin. "He-" she pointed at Cason, "is a demon yes, I'm getting answers from him, and The one hugging my brother is Annabeth and from what I have deduced using my expertise she is NOT a demon. So back off" She explained.

"If Nat says only one of them is a demon, then I'd believe her if I was you. She knows what she's doing. Neither of us are turned and neither of us are trapping you. I didn't even know who you were until you randomly showed up at my door asking for help! I don't even know of this bloody demon you are on about. SO maybe calm down yeah?" Sam explained a bit more calmly than Natalia was talking to him. "I think everyone needs to calm down" Mika said to everyone, giving Natalia and Esme the looks of 'I think we deserve an explanation here'.

MIKA CHAMBERS, NATALIA AND SAM WINCHESTER

Mika looked back at Dean when he glanced at her and wondered why he was looking at her, giving him a confused 'what is it?' look before they were seemingly interrupted from their silent non started conversation by a knock on the door, to which she had to explain that it would no doubt be Natalia and she was hardly going to keep their sister out of the loop when it came to this situation.

This was a family matter in Mika's eyes and strangers had no right being here, but she wasn't going to start up any drama over it just yet.

Natalia saw Dean in the room by Mika and Bobby and couldn't help but smile genuinely when she saw her annoying half brother was indeed very much alive and looking rather well all things considering. "Hey Dean!" she greeted back, and was about to go hug him when Annabeth took them all by very much surprise by flinging her arms right around Sam. Sam leaned back with his arms up slightly wondering what on earth was going on. A look of bafflement, awkwardness and utter confusion all written straight across his face. At Dean's smartass remark, he looked over his shoulder and scowled at him, "I don't know who she is! Or why she's hugging me!" He replied, tentatively trying to peel the girl off of him. "Annabeth, maybe you should let my brother go yeah?" Natalia spoke, putting her hand carefully on the girl's shoulder to try and help her brother out, when Benjamin spoke up and started lashing out verbally about who Cason and Annabeth were, making Natalia roll her eyes and turning to benjamin.

She was honestly glad that Esme spoke up first to try and calm the man down because she was convicned that she probably would have pinned the guy against a wall and demanded to know who the hell he was to be lashing out the way he was. To compose herself, she pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed before looking at Benjamin. "He-" she pointed at Cason, "is a demon yes, I'm getting answers from him, and The one hugging my brother is Annabeth and from what I have deduced using my expertise she is NOT a demon. So back off" She explained.

"If Nat says only one of them is a demon, then I'd believe her if I was you. She knows what she's doing. Neither of us are turned and neither of us are trapping you. I didn't even know who you were until you randomly showed up at my door asking for help! I don't even know of this bloody demon you are on about. SO maybe calm down yeah?" Sam explained a bit more calmly than Natalia was talking to him. "I think everyone needs to calm down" Mika said to everyone, giving Natalia and Esme the looks of 'I think we deserve an explanation here'.

@FuriePhoenix

"Listen. I apologize for not being more composed about this. But I've been under assault by demons for over a year for some reason. I've had to wander all over the country trying to get away from weird eyed monsters, no offense, that want to torture me into being possessed by Astaroth. Then someone else with demon blood, as well as an actual demon is also here."
"I apologize for my lack of manners, my name is Benjamin. I am a psychic and Hunter, that's where I decided to seek out help from the Winchesters. If I don't watch out for myself, due to constant demonic attack, I'm worse off than a dead man." He relaxes his hand. "Sorry, I'll be good."

AnnaBeth and Cason

Annabeth pulled herself away from Sam, staring at him. The hug was an involuntary action, as if there was a magnet between them, “Sorry. I um…I know you, I think.”

“Yeah I don’t think so. He probably just looks familiar. I’m sure you’ve met tons of giant men before we met, you know…”, Cason chimed in, trying to make a joke to hide how scared he was at the fact that they were in the same room with Sam. He was caught off guard and gave an eye roll to the man who yelled out about him being a demon, “Thanks friend! I don’t know if you realize who you’re in the room with, but I’m not really into the whole…Winchester target game. So, I’m going to go…”

Cason clapped his hands and turned to leave, “Annabeth, let’s go.”

Dean Winchester

Dean shook his head at Mika, signaling that he didn’t want to discuss things here. When Natalia answered him back, he smiled brightly. He was more than happy to see all of them, even the girl at the door who looked incredibly familiar. What was her name? Emma? Nah. Esme.
No more Hell. No more demons. But wait…

“Wait…did you just say he’s a demon? Alright, everyone just move nice and slow. Come into the room and we can hash this out. Sound good?”, Dean spoke slowly, pulling his gun from his belt carefully. He took the safety off and kept it at his side, “Hey hey hey! You’re not going anywhere, sunshine. Everyone just calm down!”

Cason raised his fingers to snap himself away, reaching out to grab Annabeth’s arm, and Dean jolted forward, raising his gun to Cason’s head, “Don’t even think about it. My patience and energy is getting real low…I don’t want to have to shoot one of you!”

He sighed, still holding his gun to the demon in front of him, before glancing over at Benjamin, "Nice to meet you. Now everyone...sit the hell down. Now."

Esme Stirling

After confronting Benjamin, she was half tempted to reach for her gun and pull it out, but then decided not to. Now really wasn’t the best time for her to have her gun out, since there were several in the room that didn’t know her. There was far too much chaos going on for her to pull her gun out and cause even more. She hung back, just barely catching Mika’s look and listened as several of the others confronted Benjamin and he finally calmed down, but tension still hung thick in the air.

After Benjamin explained his situation and finally introduced himself, she couldn’t blame him for the way he acted out. She’d probably do the same if she was in his situation. She rolled the name of the demon around in her head, trying to think if she had come across anyone with that name or heard it before. She couldn’t recall the name. Esme looked to the door when she heard Dean’s voice. Then Cason said he was leaving and tried to take AnnaBeth with him. She was seconds from stepping forward to stop him, but Dean beat her to the punch and it was clear he had a gun to Carson’s head.

She couldn’t help but smirk at Dean’s choice of words to stop Carson, but it faded at his command for everyone to sit down. Once everyone had filed in, she brought up the rear yet again, closing the door behind her. Esme made her way to an empty wall, leaned against it and crossed her arms across her chest. Everyone seemed to want answers from someone, especially those that were strangers to one another. She didn’t say a word as her eyes traveled around the room to take in all the faces. She then quietly sighed as she waited for someone to break the silence with a question, which she thought might be aimed at Carson first.

NATALIA, MIKA AND SAM

Natalia tried to refrain from rolling her eyes and sighing at Benjamin's words about having been tortured by demons in the past and has a bad past with them. She really wanted to say 'welcome to the club...you're not the only one' but she decided it was best to keep her mouth utterly shut at this current moment and try and reduce the tension that was ever growing around them all. She was pretty much certain that every single hunter of varying levels had some kind story of a bad time with demons, but that was another story for another time she thought. So instead she simply just nodded at Benjamin agreeing to not do anything stupid whilst they were all together in a public building. She watchedx on as Annabeth pulled away from Sam and apologised, whilst Cason clearly was getting jealous over what had happened and was trying to make her leave with him, only for Dean to put a stop to that idea brashly.

Sam gave Annabeth a simple small half smile, "It's okay, no harm done" he told her, knowing there were many other things that could have been a lot worse to be given out of the blue, a hug most definitely not being one of them. The other thing he was not expecting was Natalia to clarify and confirm that at least Cason was infact a demon. Why was she of all people bringing a bloody demon with her to reunite with them? Was she that bored out of her mind that she was doing something so incredibly out of character for her? He definitely wanted answers that was for sure. He didn't even stop Dean pulling out his gun and pointing it toward Cason's head, knowing that if he had any weapon directly on him right now and not out of arm's reach in his room, he would probably be doing the same thing, as he let everyone file inside and closed the door behind them all.

Mika was on edge herself, and although she didn't pull a gun out like Dean did, she was gearing herself for any kind of fight that could break out. She wondered when she got so calm about things as she was usually the utter hot head like Natalia could be, but here she was doing the opposite to Dean's actions instead of mirroring them. "Okay, now we're all inside, Nat I think you better start talking with these two. What are you thinking bringing a demon with you?" She questioned. "Before you all think I'm outta my mind, I'm not. They found me at my hotel at the border of Sioux Falls. Annabeth here says there's voices in her head that keep telling her she needs to find Sam and it was her who first told me you Dean are back. Of course, I didn't believe the latter until Mika's text, but I believe Annabeth about the voices. I only found out Cason here is a demon when he got stuck in the hidden devil's trap under the doormat I made. Turns out this one-" she started explaining before gesturing at Annabeth, "Can exorcise a demon out of their meatsuit with her mind because she tried to with Cason. We all found out what he was at the same time. I don't trust him at all but he has proved himself to be insanely loyal to Annabeth, so I don't think he'll be any kind of massive threat...at least for the time being, So Dean lower your gun" she continued, before going into more detail of what she learned during the drive here.
