Jovi swung her machete with force decapitating the head of the vampire she was fighting, blood sprayed up onto her face and clothes. She stood for a second breathing heavily processing the fact she was covered in vampire blood, she heard the last vamp's head hit the floor signaling that her father had just finished them off. She then exploded her face and voice falling into one of disgust "ew! Ew! Ew! I'm gonna throw up!" She exaggerated going to bring her hand to her mouth then pausing realising it was also covered in blood, she quickly retracted that hand "stop being a drama queen, we just killed a whole nest that's something to be proud of" Dean responded walking towards her but her inner teenage girl was still freaking out "I'll be proud when I get this blood off of me" she then sniffed the air looking up at her father with a scrunched up nose and squinted eyes "it reeks too"

Dean laughed at her facial expression before putting a arm around her shoulders leading her towards the door of the trailer they were currently inside "come on, Paris Hilton" Jovi rolled her eyes sending her father a bitch face "she beat your ass so that's a compliment".

The two stood over a barrel of water cleaning their hands and blades, Jovi refused to put the now bloody water on her face thinking she'd wait till they got home no matter how much she wanted to throw up at the thought of the blood on her. Dean wandered over to a fridge finding beer inside, he laughed grabbing one "jackpot. Hey Jov, you want one?" Jovi looked over at her father with a unamused smile "yes, actually I do" she walked over to him prepared to take the can but he quickly lifted it out of reach "oh come on" Jovi complained Dean gave a half smile chuckling "you still got 6 years to go, sweetheart"

"So not fair" Jovi complained then Sam came into view charging towards them, machete on hand "Dean! Jovi!" The two looked up as Sam came to a stop a few feet from them "hey"

"Hey, what happened? What is this?" Sam said observing the many trailers that were now stained with fresh blood, Dean grinned "I know, right. Six vamps between us" he gestured between himself and Jovi who was still pouting standing beside him, Sam walked past them looking around the trailer park which now looked like a scene straight out of a horror movie. His jaw dropped, grey eyes wide "I think that's gotta be a personal best, obviously I did most of the work" Dean gloated his daughter slowly turning her head to send her father a pointed glare "talk about blow you're own trumpet" Dean chuckled opening his beer, Sam turned holding his arms out "you couldn't have waited?"

"For what?"

"For what?" Sam repeated stunned, Dean caught on "oh, come on man, I can handle it, Jovi can handle it and we did handle it"

"Facts" Jovi added siding with her father, she knew what Sam was getting at considering the mark and how her dad seems to lose his shit when it comes to killing things but that's why she was there, to keep an eye on him. Killing vamps was just a bonus. Sam sent her a stern look with something else in his eyes that only she understood which made her jaw clench "what if you couldn't?" He argued

Dean smiled amused "but we did"

Sam just glared at him "it's done. Come on, man. It's the only way I can take the edge off. I'm sorry, I don't always like to wait around for you. Especially with you looking at me like that all the time" Dean said his tone no longer jokey instead it was serious and his eyes had also lost all amusement "look at you like what?" Sam questioned brows pulling together in confusion "like that! Like I'm some sort of a-a-a diseased killer puppy"

Jovi blinked, diseased killer puppy? And she was supposed to be taking his words seriously? Dean looked between Jovi and Sam who both wore confused looks "look, man. I'm sweaty and covered in vamp juice and she's been complaining for the past 10 minutes, can we just talk about this later? I'd like to get back to the bunker, get my buzz on and uh, you know, pass out watching Speed 2: Cruise control"

Jovi scoffed crossing her arms over her chest "and you tell me I watch my favourite movies too often" Dean shrugged at her before he hit Sam's arm "cool?" He then walked off with Jovi following behind him, Sam watched the two go muttering a frustrated "cool"

☆

The previous night, after they gotten cleaned up Jovi had fallen asleep wrapped in her father's arms after they'd both fallen asleep watching Speed 2. But when they'd woken up they found Sam gone, he hadn't told them he was going anywhere, nor had he left a note or text message. Jovi figured it had something to do with their secret mission to get the mark off of Dean, she had tried to tell him that Sam had probably gone on a supply run or something but Dean insisted that they go find him especially after he etched over Sam's notepad finding exactly what he was looking for. So here they were in a suburban neighbourhood watching as Sam strayed away from a old house that looked like it was on the verge of falling down and back to the car he'd stolen "come on" Dean told her, the two leaving Baby and heading over to Sam's car

Jovi climbed into the back while Dean got into the passenger seat making Sam jump "Heya Sammy, how's the case?" He asked staring into Sam's eyes waiting for an answer, Sam tried to hide the uncomfortable look on his face as he looked between Dean and Jovi "what are you doing here?"

"Well, it looks like I, uh, we're here to save your sac" Dean laughed to himself before falling into a serious look "look, you were right, okay? We shouldn't have gone off solo like we did, it was stupid"

"We all make mistakes, Sammy" Jovi added somewhat sarcastically but only Sam would pick up on that mainly because she knew Sam was somewhat annoyed with her because she knew they were trying to keep Dean from going off the rails and instead of waiting for him she just went off with her father. Jovi didn't see the problem, she was there too so it wasn't like he was just by himself killing vamps - whatever if Sam wanted to hold a grudge he could

"And?" Sam said with a raised brow

"And selfish. It was a douche move. If you're doing this case by yourself to teach us a lesson, you don't have to okay?" Dean told him with Jovi nodding along as if to say 'what he said'

"How'd you find me?" Sam asked them raising his brows, Dean chuckled "ah! Took an etching off your notepad then I decided to take a crack at the, uh, St Louis suicide house" Dean explained where he and Jovi had been all morning "so you know about it?"

"We got the basics from Google, the family moves into a long vacant house, uh, one week later, three of 'em dead by their own hands-"

"Whole family was wiped out except for the daughter which the house is still under her name" Jovi finished for her father in a matter of factly tone while Dean the continued "I'm figuring she's the one who nearly unmanned you back there. But see, here what I don't get. I mean, a cold case is one thing but this is subzero. I mean, there's nothing even in our wheelhouse unless you know something I don't"

Sam nodded "yeah, that long vacant home used to be a men of letters chapter house" Jovi looked up at the big white painted home "remember Magnus?"

"You mean the dickward ex men of letters that tried to make a zoo exhibit out of me? Yeah" Dean nodded his head annoyance in his tone which was understandable, Sam then told them "before he was expelled he built Werther. A magical box with a deadly alarm system, werther is buried somewhere in that house it was supposed to have been guarded but I'm guessing that plan went out the window when Abbadon massacred the entire membership in '58"

"And then the house stayed limbo until some lucky family brought it"

"Werthers a time bomb and it needs to be defused, not only is this in our wheelhouse, it's our responsibility"

Jovi tilted her head "I'm sorry? Our responsibility?" Sam glanced between both Jovi and deans equally as confused expressions "we're men and lady of letters, it's our legacy"

"Your legacy maybe..." Jovi mumbled to herself, seriously though, her dad and Sam were barely legacy's then she was like one quarter legacy which doesn't really count in her books "well, hey, if you say this is a case" Dean clapped his hands "we're in, if you'll have us".

☆

Jovi followed Sam round the back of the house while her dad went to the front to distract the woman who lived there "so you gonna tell me why we're really here?" Jovi questioned her voice quiet as she walked behind her uncle "Rowena said to decipher the book she needs a witches notes which—"

Jovi stopped pulling Sam's arm so he came to a stop "you're working with Rowena now? Like the evil witch that tried to kill us literally last month!" The girl hissed completely stunned that Sam would even consider working with the witch "she's the only one I could think of that might be able to decipher the book!" Sam argued back voice at the same level as hers, both arguing but trying not to blow their cover at the same time "we'd have better luck with Crowley, Sam!" Her uncle clenched his jaw going over to the back door starting to pick the lock, a thought hit Jovi. The girls eyes narrowed as she stared suspiciously at her uncle "Rowena wouldn't do it for free, what did you offer her?"

Sam didn't meet her eyes as he continued working on the lock "I didn't offer her anything" Jovi shook her head "okay, I'll rephrase, what deal did you make with her?"

The lock made a satisfying click signalling that it had been unlocked, Sam turned to her "she translates the spell, I'll kill Crowley" Jovi's jaw dropped, her eyes widening and her heart dropping. They hadn't been able to kill Crowley for years, every time they'd failed and at this particular moment in time he was somewhat an ally so was they really about to jeopardise that for Rowena of all people? He's the freakin' king of hell! Before Jovi could answer Sam stepped inside the house which only pissed the girl off more because now she had to be silent

She followed him inside the two being careful not to make a sound, they could hear Dean talking to the woman keeping her busy. Sam stepped towards a locked door observing the padlock, they heard footsteps approaching from the doorway. Both Winchester's pressing themselves against the wall praying the blonde woman didn't notice them, she didn't, instead she walked away but Dean appeared in the doorway motioning for them to hurry. Sam quickly got back to work, swiftly picking the lock. Jovi and Sam were quick to go down to the basement with Sam closing the door as quietly as he could

The girl turned on her flashlight trying her best to tip toe down the steps, she looked around the room grimacing at all of the cobwebs and the mess that was laying around. Sam moved around her searching for whatever they were looking for while Jovi just took in all the old junk laying around but a chair clattering to the floor had her turning on her heel glancing at her uncle with a 'seriously?' Look. They both paused for a second expecting to hear the woman race down there but nothing happened so they continued exploring, Jovi found a gap in the wall that was covered by cobwebs. She looked over at her uncle "psst!" Sam looked over spotting what she was pointing at, he walked over going through the cobwebs which made a gap for the teens to climb through without touching the webs. Listen, Jovi's a good hunter and isn't afraid to get a little dirty but things like blood spraying onto her or cobwebs still made her cringe - she hates spiders, so if either of them were gonna get a spider in their hair she'd rather it be Sam. They crouched down by the small metal box that had a round window in the centre, Jovi was confused as to what the hell they were looking at but Sam was getting straight to work. He grabbed an old bowl from inside the room putting a pink flower into it as well as some powder he then lit it on fire before uttering a spell, Jovi quietly watched.

After a second they heard yelling upstairs "you call them up here!"

Jovi and Sam both looked up at the ceiling "okay, Sam, Jovi!" Dean called out, Jovi looked at her uncle asking what to do. Sam turned back to the spell continuing it "Sammy! Jov! She wants you up here now!"

"Sam" Jovi whispered her uncle looked at the box putting a hand on the handle before pulling it open causing a loud bang! Jovi scrambled backwards as green smoke came out of the box going straight for her, she didn't even have time to process as the smoke flew into her. There was a few seconds of silence where she sat there frozen not too sure what to do or what had happened, she felt fine - normal. Sam rushed towards her helping her up "you okay?" Jovi still a little out of it nodded looking herself over for injury "y-yeah, I'm fine" Sam released a sigh of relief "ok, good, come on"

The two rushed up the stairs spotting Dean and Susie both standing opposite each other both with the same far away and confused expression "dad!" Jovi rushed into the room only to pause when she spotted the gun Susie was pointing at her father, Sam hastily grabbed Jovi's arm pulling her behind him "hey, hey, hey, hey. Take it easy" Sam told the woman stepped up beside Dean, Susies crazed eyes stared up at the Winchesters with panic and anger "do you have any idea what you've done?!" She yelled at them

"Put the gun down. We can talk about this, okay?" Sam tried calming her, Jovi felt a chill run down her spine. Susies eyes focused on something behind her pure fear coming onto her face, Jovi looked behind her but she paused when she saw flashes of a boy maybe a little older than her grinning at Susie to Jovi it appeared malicious.

"What's wrong with her?"

"I don't know"

She gripped her father's arm eyes never leaving the boy "there's a boy there" she spoke but Dean and Sam couldn't see what she was seeing. Whatever that smoke was Jovi could now see the ghost clear as day

"Stay back" Susie demanded eyes never leaving the boy, Dean looked from Susie to his daughter who's breathing had become uneven clearly freaked out but Jovi hadn't noticed the gun was starting to be pointed at her. Susie took the safety off of the gun, Dean quickly shoved Jovi ahead of him ducking as Susie let a shot off at the spirit of her brother. A vase was shot at next behind the father-daughter duo, Susie running off down the hallway

"What are you doing, huh?" Dean snapped at looking up at Sam "you don't have a plan. You don't have a defense!-"

"No!" Susie cried out catching their attention "Susie!" Sam called out rushing off towards her with Jovi following. Dean heard a distant yell, he paused looking back at the room and for a second his surroundings changed to purgatory. Jovi and Sam called out to Susie finally finding a locked door which she was behind "Susie, let us in! We can help you!" Sam called out

"Jovi" the girl heard a familiar British voice come from one of the rooms, in a state of confusion Jovi followed the feminine voice into one of the side rooms that appeared to be some sort of bedroom/ storage room. There was a bed in the middle but had boxes and scattered books laid across it and the floor, there was a chair in the corner by the window and there she was sat looking out of the window. Her blue eyes met Jovi's green ones a smile pulling at her lips, to Jovi Bella Talbot was exactly how she remembered her. Brunette hair styled perfectly, makeup sitting flawlessly on her face. She was sporting a black pair of jeans, a black leather jacket and black v neck top

Jovi froze, Bela had been dead 7 years. There was a time where Jovi and Bela actually got along really well, every time they'd run into each other Bela made a point of being kind to the little girl, the heartless woman actually grew to adore Jovi Winchester. When they'd been on a case involving a haunted ship they had to go to a ball and Dean refused to leave the 7 year old in a abandoned house by herself so Bela went out of her way to get Jovi a emerald gown, a bracelet and Jovi even received a necklace from Bela for her 8th birthday - something the woman had sent to Bobby with a note attached. All in all Bela was someone Jovi grew to enjoy the company of, she was no Jo but was still someone who played a major part in the girls life. She was killed by hellhounds only weeks apart from her father, Jovi had always wondered what could've happened if she didn't die

"Bela?" Jovi questioned heart racing and tears stinging her eyes "my, my, haven't you grown?" The woman spoke standing up from the chair walking towards the girl who shook her head in denial that Bela was actually here "y-you're dead, you can't be here" Jovi stuttered while Bela reached out tucking a stand of hair behind the girls ear "so was that boy you saw in there" Bela said nodding towards the living room "and all of those ghosts you saw as a child, those psychic abilities really went to waste, didn't they?"

Jovi blinked in offence tilting her head "I never had physic abilities, I saw dead people - that's just freaky shit" Bela laughed looking down at the girl with amusement "even that's a gift, tell me Jovi how much did you really know about your mother?"

Her mother? The hell did that come from? Jovi put her hands out closing her eyes shaking her head not letting the thoughts consume her "what am I doing? You're not real, you're just a hallucination. I'm talking to nobody, I just need to get back to reality" Jovi walked out of the room and into the hallway going back to where she'd last seen Sam, Bela following after her "Jovi have you not thought that you see dead people and guess what? I'm dead. Makes sense don't you think?"

Jovi glanced over her shoulder at the woman "wrong, you're in hell. You can't be wandering around" the girls eyes darted around the hallway not seeing her uncle anywhere "Sammy!" She called out going to the door that she thought she remembered Sam being outside "how are Sam and Dean? It's been a while" Bela spoke while Jovi pushed the door finding it now unlocked and open "Sammy!" She called again heading inside ignoring Bela, Jovi gasped spotting Susie with a bullet wound to the head her body slumped against the wall "well, she doesn't look too clever" Bela commented a million thoughts ran through the girls head as she stared at the body "Susie was seeing that boy, who was dead and now she's dead"

"Clearly, but that's our problem because?" Jovi glared at the woman her jaw clenched in disbelief "because you're my problem! If I don't get out of this stupid hallucination I'll end up like Susie over there!" Bela boredly exhaled "okay, keep your hair on"

Jovi stressfully ran a hand through her hair thinking of a way to get out of this
