A/N: The end is near
_____________

Skylar's POV:

"Dean!" I yell running up the stairs and I see him panting on the chair, "Dean I need you!" I kick his legs and he looks up at more tiredly, "What? happened?" He asks and I show him my hands, they tremble with red, "Skylar, what happened?!" He jumps up and I start to cry, I turn around running back to Sage, "It's Sage, he was shot!" I tell him and I freeze when I see his body has disappeared.

"Where is he?" Dean looks around with me, avoiding the unconscious bodies on the floor. "I swear he was right here. He was right here!" I find where he was once laying, his blood seeping through the wood and going fry. I start to panic struggling to keep my hands at my side, they're stained from him and now he's gone. "What the hell is going on!" Dean yells throwing something against the wall.

I fall to my knees and I just lay on the floor beside another bleeding man, "Skylar, what happened?" Dean runs to my side but I don't answer faint footsteps come up the stairs but I don't care, whoever it is can come to take me. I don't care, my brother is gone and there's nothing that tells us where he is or where whoever took him.

"Morozans, Celeste where are you?" What? I lift my head up and I see a man in a suit followed by a smaller person dressed as if they can't be here. "What do you want Marco?" Dean asks him and I blink a couple of times recognizing his two eyebrow scars. It really is him, "Who is the dude next to you." He points to the guy with the bulletproof helmet, "Well first off it's not a dude, and second we're here because of you three but I only see two, where is Sage?" He asks and I look at the spot next to me.

"He's not here." I wipe my nose. "What do you mean he's not here?" Beans? I swear that's Beans' voice. "Beans?" I jump up seeing her wave at me, I run to her over to her and I take the helmet off her head. "Hi." She smiles at me and I pull her towards me hugging her so tight, "You're here, why are you here?" I'm both happy and upset but here, she's here.

"Because Marco said I needed to come with him." I hold her face in my hands, "And I had to wear all of this just in case and I had to carry this." She shows me a pistol and I immediately look at Marco. "She only shot one person it's fine." Marco puts his stuff down and I take the bullet vest off of her. "You shot someone?" I question, I'm not that concerned but shooting someone isn't exactly easy or fun.

"Mhm, it was easy they just stood still but it wasn't fun but it meant one more person that wasn't coming after us so I think it was good." She says casually. "So you're okay, like actually you're okay?" I ask and she nods, "Mhm I'm just glad we found you because I was getting worried especially after the text with the word 'Beany' I figured that wasn't you." She said and I nodded.

"Yeah that wasn't me that was a bunch of asshats but we're going to catch up later okay because right now my brother is still missing." I tell her and I turn around seeing Dean and Marco stand around the spot that I held Sage before I ran for help.

"Okay well we can't do anything right now but I need to get you three out of here before anyone else comes, anything else I need to get a look at before we leave entirely?" Marco asks and I walk back to the broken window that the guy ran through and jumped. "The guy that shot Sage was here, he jumped out of the building and I didn't see him get up, it's like he disappeared." I point at the shattered window and both Dean and Marco walk over to it.

I reach behind me with open hands trying to find Beans then I feel her hands in mine and I hold them tightly pulling her closer to me, I don't want to lose her here. "I don't see any signs of blood or anything broken so let's go." Marco walks away from it all and grabs his weapons before going downstairs and Dean follows after.

"Come on Skylar, there's nothing that we can do now." He says and I bow my head walking down, "Are you okay?" Beans asks me and I shrug my shoulders collecting the things that we came with and we walk out of the manor. "I don't know, could be better I guess." I try to sound okay then I feel her squeeze my hand. She didn't say anything which I'm actually grateful for because even though I love hearing her talk and the way her voice sounds, I just can't think of anything to say.

My mind is pretty blank yet all I'm thinking about is my brother. He was with me. He was right there and I told him I would come back with help. I would be back with him. "Dean get in the front, Skylar, Miss. Bailey Skeels in the back." Marco tells us and he unlocks the car, I let Beans in first before me and as I get in she scoots over close to the door. "You can lie down." She opens her arms and I take her offer laying my head on her lap and the rest of my body on the leather seats.

"Feel better?" She asks combing her fingers through my hair and she just holds me. "You're not buckled." I mumble but she doesn't move me. "It's okay, I think the windows are tinted enough plus you're already comfortable and so am I, you can sleep it's okay." She kisses my cheek. I turn my head to see her and she smiles lightly.

"I love you, I'm glad your safe." She continues to stroke my hair. "I love you too, my mind's a little more at ease knowing you're okay, even though I expected you to still be at home." I lean my head up to kiss her, "Yeah but this was fun, sort of, I'll get used to it." She chuckles giving me another kiss. I hope she doesn't have to do anything like this again but knowing what I've gone through it can only get worse. "I don't want you to go through anything like that again." I tell her but I can already hear her fighting with me about this.

"I know what I'm getting into when I'm with you. I understand the risk, even if I'm going blind into the unknown, if I can still hear you and feel you then I'll go wherever you go." God she's so good with words, I guess this is what happens when you read a lot. "I really, really, really, love you." I tell her then we suddenly stop and I almost fall onto the floor. "What the hell?" I cuss and look up seeing Marco and Dean stare at us.

"We feel like we're interrupting." Marco clears his throat and I shake my head, "Whatever just take us home please, I need sleep." I make myself comfortable again on Beans' lap. I feel us start moving again and I close in an attempt to get some sleep.

"Sage, Sage it's going to be okay. Are you okay?" I get down on my knees waiting to see what's going to happen, I'm scared his shirt is soaking with red and it's just spreading, he's sweaty and his face just screams pain. "Skylar it hurts a lot. And I know what it looks like, I don't need to see it to know." He strains shuffling around as if he's trying to distract his body from the pain.

"What do you mean? It's going to be okay here I'm going to put pressure okay? We need to put pressure to stop the bleeding." My voice cracks and I place both of my hands on his stomach feeling his blood seep through my fingers. My hands turn red but I press harder. "Sky, it's okay." He wheezes but I don't look at him.

It's everywhere, his blood is everywhere. I can feel it dampen under my knees, the smell of iron thickens in the air. I know I'm not afraid of blood in any way or disgusted but seeing his everywhere is eating me up.

"No. You have to stop bleeding. It has to stop." I beg for some miracle to happen. I feel the hot tears run down my cheek and I wipe my eyes with the back of my hand clearing my vision from the wet blurriness. "You need to listen to me. Look at me please." I feel him hold my arm. I know what's coming, I know my brother too well to know what he's going to say. And I don't want to hear it at all.

I don't want to hear any of it and have it come true. "Please Sky?" I turn to see him. His pale face and wet eyes, "You'll be okay, you Dean and Bailey will be okay. I promise. You know I'm horrible with words but it really does feel like I'm about to go soon but you will be okay, you have Bailey. She has you, and Dean will always be around one way or another." He chokes making my heart drop. "No, stay with me, Sage. Sage. I won't listen to you." I pat his cheek multiple times until he opens his eyes.

I cross my legs and I keep his head up on my knee. I see his body start to tremble. "You will get through more than I ever could. I'm sorry for giving you the life we have. I'm sorry, you don't deserve any of this. And if I just went our normal way home that day, we would be okay. We would still be with mom and dad and we would've lived a normal life. I know that you think about that kind of life sometimes. I'm really sorry Sky. You were just a kid." He starts to cry but I bawl.

I couldn't stop crying. "Stop talking like this please, we're going to be okay. We were both kids. But I don't regret anything I've done and I can't regret any of it because of everything I have now. I don't want a normal life. I know before I said I did and I wish I did but I don't anymore." I sniffle trying really hard to stop crying.

"I'm going to get help, I know where Dean is, I just need to get him okay and we'll get you fixed up and we'll be able to go home. We can go home." I wipe my eyes again before slowly letting his head lay back on the floor. "I'll be back. I'll be back." I repeat kissing his forehead and I bolt downstairs."
