"From out of Nowhere" - SPN

SAM

As Anya looked up at the ceiling in a manner that he recognised all too well as the universal sign someone was thinking about their next words or ideas, he gave her time to come up with her answer to his question before he watched her look back down and rapidly type on her phone. When she was done, he listened to the phone speak what she typed out and he couldn't help but get a little smile on his face at her words. Her likes on films were much more broad than Dean's which was a nice change of pace for him. He took, liked many different films, he had the people he had known over the years to thank for his broad taste in films, songs and anything else pop culture. "Oh I seem soppy enough do I?" He teased before chuckling, "well you'd be sorting of right there I guess, my likes are pretty wide. Fantasy, sci fi, superhero stuff, thriller, room coms when done right...I'm a lot more open to anything" he added before continuing, "I've got a good stash of stuff we can watch in my room if you're okay with that? We don't really have a separate room to watch stuff in" he explained. He didn't want to put her on edge but also didn't want to assume she'd just be okay with watching something alone in his room with him. If she was unsure about that, he'd gladly think of something else and find a more neutral room they can watch something on his laptop. "We keep meaning to invest in a large TV and make a room for relaxing but the two of us keep going back to our rooms and not do anything about the idea" he told her, even though the full truth wasn't just that they keep going back into old habits, it was an idea they had come up with when Mika was still around and when she passed, the plan just kind of fell through. Though now Lexi was living with them, even if it ended up being temporarily, he might make more of an effort to sort something out.

"If you're not comfortable with that, we can just grab my laptop from my room to go watch something in another room?" He then suggested, to show her that he didn't want to push her into a situation she wasn't happy with. He hated the idea of someone thinking of him as some kind of predator but he could also understand it with the job he and Dean had. It's not like their lives were completely open and innocent in a lot of ways. They did do a lot of shady things to keep people safe on the streets at night over the years. But he was still very aware of how he came across to people and he liked Anya, thought she was a cool person who deserved a lot of respect. So he began to guide her to his room so they could pick something to watch whilst she decided on whether she was happy to remain in his room to watch something or go in another room that's more open to watch something.

LEXI

Lexi hoped that her message back to this person on the dark web would be enough to grab their attention. She was usually pretty good at drawing people in and convincing them to give her information she needed, but there was always that tiny part of her that always became concerned that she wouldn't convince the next person she was trying to reel in. Leaning back in her chair, she made herself to try and relax a little, but here was Dean Winchester next to her, stretching and inadvertently looking more appealing to her than he did just moments ago. She tried to keep her mind focused but then he had to go and say about strip poker before mentioning the very valid point that they were working and could end up on the road any moment. "Easy cowboy.... It's probably not the best of ideas you could have right now" she smirked, looking at him out the corner of her eye. She couldn't help but chuckle when he tried to change the subject by wondering what Sam was up to and joking about driving himself into having a stroke. "I'm sure Sam is fine showing Anya around, he's a big boy he can look after himself" she replied to him.

Going quiet once more, she tried to think of something to do that would be wholly innocent and normal but her mind had inexplicably gone utterly blank. Her mind had gone into work mode so rapidly that she now didn't know what to do to shut her mind off for a few moments. As she tried to think of something to do, her laptop pinged with an incoming message, making her sit up and open it up. "Well hello OccultNrd333" she said in an almost cooing tone. "Seems we're right about them being desperate because that was barely any time at all for them to reply" she remarked before actually reading the message.

'HntrssDknss76,

I have received your message and I'm choosing to trust you. I do need proof though to guarantee putting my trust in you is the right thing to do.
If proof is good enough I shall send coordinates on where to meet.

OccultNrd333'

"Seems they want proof but I'm reeling them in pretty easily here. Almost too easily" she told Dean. This wasn't her first rodeo on the dark web and usually it took a few more messages back and forth before she got what she needed out of the mysterious user, but this was straight up choosing to trust as long as she sent proof they had leads on where the Colt was. "How do you wanna play it?" She asked Dean honestly.

Fia didn't like what she was being told by Drake before Kay came calling for them. She knew Drake wouldn't let this drop now this book had come into the situation. It unnerved her greatly that she found a book that should have never been found ever again. Now Kay was telling her that she had to go to LA with Serena and Chas?! She gave a sigh and wanted to protest but the look on Kay's face told her not to bother arguing. "why LA?" she decided to ask instead. "Serena has a contact out there and we've decided you, Drake, Serena, Chas and Josh should all go whilst John and I stay behind with Trish and work from here to get answers" Kay replied, deciding to keep Lucifer's name out of her mouth for the time being. "uhh...okay" Fia simply replied with a shrug, sending she was being kept in the dark but she wasn't going to say anything as she herself had been keeping so many of them in the dark herself.

Chas was thankful that for once John was being secretive about his history with Lucifer. It was for the best that Serena didn't know every detail about that acquaintance, though he did wonder if that was even the right word to use anymore. Before all of this and Kay came into their lives, he knew how much John used his less than normal ways to gain information or get his own way....sleeping with Lucifer was just another case of those ways. "okay, so we've got our plans decided, I'll look at flights out to LA now" he commented, beginning to head out the room when he saw Kay walking back with Fia in tow. "Hey Chas? To save on flights, I can open up a portal to get us to LA in a flash" Fia spoke up.

Fia watched Drake hold the book, flipping through it whilst his hands shook. She went slightly wide eyed when he asked her how she got ahold of the book and that it was not, in fact, Serena's book. "But it looks just like her book. I found it in your house" she admitted finally. "I see now I should have told you but I wanted all the information first and I didn't know how to initially tell you." She told him. She didn't know what to think anymore, if this book was in fact a copy of Serena's and not actually hers, then it left a hollow dark feeling in the pit of her stomach as it meant, this was either planted for her to find or whoever it does belong to, the owner made Serena use it without her consent. "this is getting more and more complicated" she sighed, running a hand through her hair as she began to slowly pace to get her thoughts and information all in line in her mind.

Kay and Chas listened to Serena's story of how she knows Lucifer and Kay mentally noted how John brushed off Serena's question to him. She was now curious to exactly what those messes John and Lucifer got into. "I really don't like this idea John but I'll go to keep the kids safe and only to keep the kids safe." He replied, reluctantly agreeing to the plan. At least John agreed Kay wouldn't be totally safe around Lux and who Lucifer associated with. "I guess we're heading to LA then" he sighed. "I'll go tell the kids' Kay said, giving Chas a reassuring pat on his shoulder to signal that she was appreciative of his concern for her well being. He really was becoming a good friend. Leaving the room, she went looking around for Fia and Drake, calling out their names. "Drake?! Fia?! Where are you both? We gotta talk". Fia in the secured room with Drake heard Kay's voice and sighed, "I guess our chat is over" she spoke, walking to the door and unlocking it from the sound proofing spell and the normal lock. Opening the door, she poked her head out, "what?" She asked, causing Kay to stop and turn on her heels to see Fia's face in a doorway. "you two are to go to LA with Chas, Serena and Josh" she instructed.

Fia didn't know how to tell Drake what she knew as she knew it wouldn't come easy to acknowledge. She didn't want to hurt Drake in any way and that included emotionally. "what I feared seems to be coming true. You know when I went off on my own early on when mum first went missing?" She began to explain, looking at him the entire time before she continued, "well.. I asked around people who know dad as my starting point on how I can find mum and get dad out of his self loathing funk." She knew it might be coming across as stalling but she wanted to give him as much context as possible. "I found one contact....or more to the point, an ex contact of dad's. Astra. Word got around in Hell that dad was slipping because of mum's disappearance so naturally, she decided to insert herself into the family drama. Turns out it's your mum that sets the wheels in motion. I didn't want to believe it....trust me, I said some stuff that even dad would ground me for to Astra. But I did more digging over these weeks and when I saw mum full blown dark side phoenix for the first time? I saw it for myself...Serena was a key to unleashing mum's terror on our earth." She explained. Her tone was clear but it was also clear it was difficult for her to tell her best friend this. "That was when I had to do more digging and I found this..." She continued, digging out of her bag a book and handing it to Drake. Serena's book. "Inside there's a scripture with instructions on how to corrupt mum and then after her guilt for being manipulated by the down world to help them take control of mum. They're linked Drake.... I didn't want to believe it but the evidence is too high and I'm afraid we might be too late...the wheels are fully in motion and I'm not even a thought in their minds in this time" she said sadly.

The moment Serena said she knew Lucifer, Chas instantly looked at John then back at Serena and repeated the action a couple of times before he managed to find the words he was thinking. "oh no...not him. Not HIM!" He protested, "that man has been nothing but trouble in our lives...in John's life! Not to mention the weird thing they had going on in the past" he added, before looking at Kay apologetically. "There has to be another way" he said. Kay just looked at them all bewildered, surely they couldn't be talking about THE Lucifer Morningstar...the devil himself. Could they?! "Are we really talking about the actual devil?" She questioned, "yes and what scares me is if the down world, which includes Hell want you Kay...that Lucifer will know of you. John...please say you see where I'm coming from here? Do you really wanna risk him being anywhere near Kay?" He spoke.

Fia knew she had to give Drake more information than she already had done, he deserved to know after being dragged back here after all. "I will but not in earshot of everyone else" she replied to him honestly. She then started to wonder if this house had the hidden hallway that it did in her time as that would be perfect for their conversation. For now though she decided to just use a different room. "Let's go to another room" she said, taking his hand and pulling him out of their current place, down the hall and into another room that just so happened to the room Kay was using. Closing the door behind them, she placed a sound proofing spell on it so they wouldn't be disturbed. "okay...we should be good now to speak freely" she stated.

Kay and Chas both wrinkled their faces up in discomfort at being told they weren't being as quiet as they thought they being. They both then noticed Fia and Drake leaving the room and Kay couldn't help but feel a little suspicious of why it seemed Fia was clearly leading the decision. Shaking the suspicion off her mind, she focused back on the situation in the room the rest of them were in. "I wasn't actually thinking if it was a viable option" she grumbled. "I don't know anyone personally" Chas spoke up. "So lets just say that option isn't available to use, what other ideas have people got?" He then added. "looking back on my magical lineage and see if there's a connection to Serena's?" Kay suggested.

With it decided when Drake would chat with Bane, Fia nodded and began to think of what her next move would be outside of trying to keep her side of the family in the dark as much as possible. She hated doing it like this but she knew it was necessary.

As John's glance went towards Serena, both Chas and Kay followed his gaze with their own before looking back at John as he seemed to be getting another theory in his mind. Both of them gave his idea some serious thought, it seemed like a crazy theory but crazy theories was all they had right now. "I mean...it's about as plausible as any other idea we got right now." Chas remarked, "which just begs the concern of, is Serena a cause for what happens to Kay to make Fia come back here?" He continued as he thought about his words. That brought a shudder to Kay. "All we know for certain right now is that I go dark side so to speak in the kid's time. And that happening and however it happens clearly has an impact on you John to make Fia feel obligated to fix things herself. If only there was a way for the kids to bring us to their time so we can see for ourselves what is going on" she commented.

Fia pondered the suggestion after letting Drake think of an idea. It seemed the most logical to her that he used the shadow realm to discuss with Bane. She just hoped that Bane would be open to listening to Drake. "Okay, try that. Whilst you're doing that I'll try and keep my side of the family off our backs." She replied.

Kay and Chas both agreed that John's suggestion was as good as anything else that they could come up with. Still, Kay couldn't fully shake that dread feeling in the pit of her stomach over this whole situation. She also couldn't figure out why the kids felt the need to come back this far in time when she most certainly wasn't even pregnant with John's child, let alone anything else with her life. "It's as good as a place to start than anywhere I guess." Kay replied, folding her arms across her chest, in an attempt to stop herself from nervous fidgeting. "I agree. It's about our only option at the moment." Chas said, noticing Kay's discomfort.

The moment Drake said about talking to Bane alone, Fia realised she never factored that option in until now. Of course! If anyone of this group would be able to help them with information and not put things in utter chaos as a repercussion, it would be Bane. "Okay, we'll talk with him in private somehow, got any bright ideas on how?" She asked him.

With John disagreeing with Chas' theory, it gave both him and Kay some sort of relief that he could be wrong. Neither wanted whatever was to happen, to actually happen no matter what. Especially Kay. "Well that's a small relief" Kay said. "I still don't like this feeling of being in the dark about why they came back here though. I dislike the very idea that something will happen to me even more so" she then added quietly. Truth was, she was, deep down absolutely terrified that whatever demons have been stalking her for these years would actually get her and break her to their will. She also hated the fact something happens so bad that it means a future kid of hers feels it's imperative to time travel to fix it. No teenager should be having that kind of weight of responsibility on their shoulders.

Fia hugged Drake and when she did she saw Chas, John and Kay all talking in a hushed group. "You're a good guy Drake...don't feel bad for it hitting it you harder than you thought. Just hope that's the worse you'll see her in" she said to him before whispering, "think they're getting suspicious of us...we gotta be careful". She then pulled away from him. She knew it was hard to not get close emotionally to this year's versions of their family, she even almost forgot that herself not long ago with John, but they had to remain smart. They had to set the path into a different direction and then go home. But if her folks got anymore suspicious it was going to make things more difficult.

Kay and Chas both nodded in agreement to John's theories. It was the only thing that made sense to them both. "and I got a sinking feeling it's the latter theory. Fia clearly still feels like you're not totally a lost cause John in her time. And if Serena has something to do with what happens to me? With what she's capable of? That's terrifying to even think about." Kay whispered. "You know what else has been worryingly going round my mind? That whatever happens in their time is a fixed point and can't be changed" Chas added, the thought giving him a cold shudder down his back.

Fia sighed with relief when Serena agreed to let her help in stopping the bleeding on her leg. She lifted the partially wrapped gauze and placed her hand over the cut so she could truly focus on it and spoke a few simple words in Latin. An orange light came from her hand and seeped over Serena's leg wound, not causing any pain to the woman as it helped stop the bleeding and kickstart the healing process. Lifting her hand away she looked pleased with her handy work, "there, now you can wrap it to keep it clean and let it finish healing naturally. But it won't bleed anymore" she explained. Standing up she walked over to Drake, "she's alright now. I've stopped the bleeding and helped it to heal" she told him softly.

Kay and Chas were both wondering the same thing. It was clear the kids must.know more than they were letting on but it was also clear they weren't telling them. "The fact that neither of them are telling us makes me think it must be something much bigger than they initially let on. Which quite frankly worries me" Kay replied. "I hate to agree but I do. Drake told me Fia was the instigator of this little time trip of theirs but he told me nothing else. Just that Fia barely told him anything and dragged him to this time to aid her. Which leaves me believing it's to do with you John or even more likely, and what my money is on: Kay. I mean, she's basically the last phoenix in existence which is clearly shaking things up in the down world" he said quietly so only Kay and John could hear.
