Judy pulled into the drive way. Her heart in her chest as she looked at the little house. She was at her aunts house in Richmond, Indiana. Nikki's home she shared with her parents. Her heart in her chest as she noticed all the cars that were also parked in the driveway.

One truck struck out in particular to her.

Swallowing nervously Judy climbed out of the truck and walked up the steps onto the porch and knocked on the front door. She had heard yelling so she went and rang the doorbell several times.

The door opened and it was her uncle.

"Well hey there! Come on in!"

He greeted as if everything was fine. But things were not fine in the least. Peering through the livingroom and into the large arch of the doorway that separated the livingroom and dinning room Judy stopped in her tracks.

Her aunts sat there at the table across from someone who she had hoped she wouldn't have had to see.

Rising from his chair, Judy's father - who had the same build and look about him as John Winchester - looked at her.

"You have a hell of a lotta explainin to do. And you best do it now."

Nikki smiled softly, her fingers flipping through a book. Croleey had been keeping a close eye on her since he had come to find out about her soul.

He didn't know who had taken it, but he could only imagine who would be stupid enough if they had known who she was to him.

"Did witches really kiss Satan's asshole while prying it open with these spreader things?"

Looking over at Crowley he gave her a rather amused yet rather content gaze. He was waiting on word to come back that his minons had captured this witch that would have been powerful enough to help him find what happened to her soul.

"That and more."

Crowley said causing her to crack a loud laugh. He grinned, her laughter always doing something to his blackened heart. Hanging out in the throne room together as demons scuffled about with paperwork and other random things for Crowley to do was different.

Nikki had plopped herself down beside Crowley's throne on the floor - even after the fact that he had told her she could sit in a chair - and had been given some books from Hell's library to look through while Crowley dealt with the boring details of Hell's way of running things.

"Sire?"

A demon questioned watching as their King was stroking the top part of the young humans head slowly with his right hand. Crowley glanced that the demon as if he was bothering him - which in all honesty he was - and looked like he was going to skin the poor boy alive.

"Papers. Sire."

"Can't you see I'm busy with your Queen?"

Crowley snapped but removed his hand regardless. He huffed and took the clipboard and begun to read. Nikki smiled as she glanced up to Crowley.

Who would have ever thought that the King of Hell would one day be playing with her hair and scratching her head while on his throne in the pits of Hell?

"So he's holding her captive because he turned her demon and now she's soulless?"

Michael - Judy's father - questioned. Judy was sitting at the other end of the table after being asked to sit down and explain what had happened. She explained that they had been staying with the Winchester brothers for a fee months and about the trails, about angels and demons, and about killing Abaddon and Nikki's death.

Laura was trying to keep it together, but it was obvious that even though she seemed tough when it came to standing up to Kings of Hell in her kitchen, when it came to her child she was a big ball of emotional mess.

"And she's in a relationship with the King of Hell?"

Just nearly winced at her aunt's question.

"Erm. The have an odd human-demon friendship, but I wouldn't call it an actual relationship?"

Judy was trying so hard right now to save her cousins ass. But her family was making that extremely difficult.

"She's acting like she's known this Crowley for a while."

Jennifer - the middle child of the siblings - stated. The woman was heavier set with wavy brown hair that reached her hips. She too was also a witch much like her elder sister. Judy's father, however --

"Sounds like I need to hunt him down and kill him."

Michael interupted. Tim had been standing in the doorway behind Judy just listening and it wasn't until Michael spoke up did the man jump in.

"Now hold on there man. I'm all about killing demons as much as the next guy. But they seemed like they work more together then actually trying to kill one another when they were both here."

Michael glared at Tim. Tim was different from Michael, always had been. His build was slimmer than the man and Tim was slightly shorter in height. He was clean shaven as much as possible and he didn't dress in the checker shirts or cowboy boots Michael wore.

Laura rubbed her hand over her head.

"Crowley has a plan to help her. If we kill him now or try to she might not get her soul back."

Judy jumped in although fearful for the come back of her words. Laura's head shot up looking at her niece. Jennifer frowned.

"Never trust a demon!"

Jennifer snapped.

"That's what we always taught you kids from day one!"

"I fucking hate it too! But if Crowley can fix it then let him try!"

"Watch your tone young lady!"

Her father snapped. Judy fell quiet and her eyes fell to the table. Tensions were high and things only seemed to be getting worse the more and more she spoke. Biting her lower lip she looked across the table at the most sinseble of the three siblings.

"Aunt Laura, Crowley has a plan. He's finding a powerful witch to help locate her soul."

"Who is this witch?"

"When I last spoke with Sam, he said the witch's name was Rowena."

The room fell silent.

"Rowena?"

Laura spoke slowly. Judy looked at her aunt seeing the expression turn from worried to extremely pissed off and frightened. Judy slumped back in her chair confused and slightly concerned. Jennifer looked about the same way. She was on edge and watching Laura closely.

"He cannot have her do this! She'll kill her!"

Laura screamed her hands slamming down onto the table before she broke out into an angry crying fit. Judy jumped and looked at her uncle frantically for answers -- none which he ended up giving.

"Call those Winchesters! Keep Rowena away from her!"

Laura shouted causing Judy to jump up from her chair.

"What's wrong with the witch!?"

She said as she grabbed her phone to quickly start texting Sam. Michael watched his sisters break down not understanding it much himself it seemed. Jennifer looked at Judy.

"Rowena was once part of our Covenant long before we ever joined. But she's black listed. She's not allowed to join or make her own because she's dangerous and her usage of magic is far too extreme. She kills people with her powers. Her spells are deadly."

And that's when Judy's stomach dropped and she quickly went to text Crowley's number.

Nikki sat on the throne when Crowley walked back inside. She was quick to her feet and before him after seeing the way he looked.

"You look like you've seen a ghost! Are you alright?"

She asked cupping his cheeks and holding him close. Crowley looked at her. His lips parted but before he spoke he grabbed her wrists. His hands cupping her warmth. His honey colored eyes looking down at her.

"You care about me?"

She blinked. Not knowing where this question suddenly came from she couldn't help but nod her head. Of course she cared about him.

"And you'd be willing to set me straight if I needed it no matter what the problem?"

"Crowley what's wrong?"

She might have been soulless, but she was still confused. Had she had her soul she might have been scared even -- but she wasn't.

"I just need to know that you're on my side?"

"Always."

She muttered. Crowley nodded his head coming down to rest on hers. Their foreheads touching for a split second before he inhaled deeply and pulled back.

"The witch that is suppose to help you. Well, she's my mother."

Nikki's eyes widened a bit. Crowley had never once mentioned his mother, well actually spoken about her. He mentioned that he was the "son of a witch" and how horrible she had been to him as a child. But he had never went into any actual detail.

"Are you... okay?"

She questioned her fingers running over his rugged cheeks. Crowley sighed and cupped the top of her hand before bringing her palm to his lips and kissing it.

"I'll be fine. But mother is a powerful witch. I dont trust her, but she can help you find your soul."

Looking at him she sighed. Pushing up on her toes she captured his lips with hers. He sighed relaxing into the kiss.

Judy watched as her family scrambled with bags. They were packing light, but all of them were making the truck down to Kansas. Judy felt her stomach turning from the nervousness she felt. She didn't want her family to go to the bunker, butshe didn't have a choice.

If her aunt was right and Rowena tried her magic on Nikki -- she would die.

"You're in a heep of trouble after this."

Her father said walking over to her. Judy frowned as her eyes cast to the floor.

"I -- "

"You can save your excuses. I never should have let you go with her hunting. She's better than your brother, but he wouldn't have let this happen."

Closing her eyes Judy felt sick. She couldn't fight with her dad that's not how their relationship worked. When he told her to do something she was to do it.

Guess that's what happens when you teaming up with John Winchester for a hunting partner for years and years.

"You'll take us to the bunker and we'll smack some sense into those boys."

He continued. Judy frowned.

This meeting was going to be world war three
