Chapter 4
It happened almost instantly. Nikki hasn't even registered what the hell happened when she found herself in, well, Hell. Crowley sighed walking his way toward his throne and took his seat. She took a moment to look around. It was a good size room. It was dark, stone structures, pillars. There were candles to light the room, tables and chairs -- it looked like a modern day castle set up; whoever would have guessed this is what Hell looked like?
"So, what's Moose's plan going to Purgatory all alone?"
He questioned relaxing against the throne. Nikki looked to him and frowned. What the hell made him think she was telling him anything about the Winchester's plans was beyond her.
And Crowley seemed to catch onto this.
He sighed rolling his eyes. He snapped his fingers and Nikki fell to her knees yelling in pain. It felt like she had been hit with something blunt against her legs. Crowley tapped his finger against the arm of his throne.
"I don't like asking twice, darling. No matter how much I enjoy that silver tongue of yours. Do not test me or you'll hurt."
She hissed. Her legs weren't - thankfully - broken, but she was in extreme pain. Gritting her teeth she hissed through them.
"Bite me, asshole!"
Crowley watched her eyes narrow as he snapped his fingers again and she doubled over before falling to the floor holding her back crying out in agony. Her head titled back against the floor causing her hair to fan out while her back arched with her hand pressed to it.
"Rain check on that. Right now, I want to know what you're not telling me. Do you honestly think this smart? Just tell me and the pain will stop."
Crowley said watching her body wither against the cold and dirty stone floor. He exhaled deeply through his nose.
"Or maybe perhaps I'll just ask that sister of yours -- "
"Alright! Alright God damn it!"
Nikki cried out struggling to sit up on her knees as she rolled over onto her stomach. She was short of breath due to the sheer pain in her back and legs, but somehow still managed to find the strength to sit up to look at Crowley.
Her hair was all in front of her face before she moved it to the side with a shake of her head.
"Sam went to Purgatory to come here! He's coming to Hell!"
"Why?"
"I dunno to get a soul or something! I was only partly listening since it didn't involve me!"
Crowley grew quiet as she pondered for a moment. Why would Sam bloody Winchester come to Hell just for a soul? It was obvious that he needed more information so his eyes darted back to Nikki.
"What are they planning? I know about their little profit Kevan. I know that it has something to do with the demon tablet. And I know that -- "
"Look that sounds swell and all but that's all waaaay above my pay grade pal."
Nikki said shaking her head. Crowley huffed. Crowley could see by the adittued she gave and the tone in her voice that she dastardly telling the truth and partly pissed off due to the pain. Rising from his throne he walked over to stand right before her.
She arched a brow obviously wishing to know what the hell he was thinking. When his chubby fingers gripped around her chin she grunted being caused to look at him directly killing her back in the process.
"I could kill you, you know. Snap my fingers. Easiest thing in the world."
He warned. And for the first time Crowley seen something different in the woman when he raised his free hand holding his fingers together.
For the first time Crowley was given a dead ass look. A look that nearly dared him to do it. A look that even scared himself to see from the woman he had come to known.
"I'm tired Crowley, I really am, so don't tease me with something that I can't have."
He was shocked. Shocked to hear such words coming from her mouth. Shocked to see the truth behind her eyes.
She wanted to die.
She honestly wanted this.
He lowered his self to her level crouching before her yet keeping his hand on her chin.
"Look at you. Twenty-five years old. Kick ass hunter. And I mean -- really sweety, you want to end it all with the snap of my fingers?"
Crowley huffed and with a snap Nikki's eyes widened. Her body no longer in pain and felt actually better than it had before he brought her down to her knees. Her eyes widened as she looked at him. He smirked and shook his head.
"You're bloody mad."
He muttered releasing her face and standing back up tall.
"Right, you're coming with me, darling. Time to have a little chit-chat with this so called family of yours."
Judy was trying her best to hold it together when Sam sliced his arm open in the middle of those woods releasing Bobby's soul up to Heaven. Sam and Dean were crazy for even trying this, but even more crazy for making it work.
"Wait, why isn't he going?"
Judy asked seeing Bobby's soul lingering around in the air as if he was trapped by some unseen force. Sam and Dean looked to one another confused.
"Hello boys."
The sudden deep and gruffled accent called out behind them. Dean as ready to jump shit when his voice became caught in the back of his throat.
It wasn't just Crowley, but on her knees beside him behind held to the ground was Nikki. Judy felt her heart stop in her chest seeing that her family was alive and as well as one could be in their situation.
"Crowley! Let them both go!"
Dean spat his voice echoing through the pines and the open night sky. Crowley gave an unamused chuckle as he rocked back and forth on his heels.
"So demanding just like kitten here. But we see where her little spitfire mouth got her."
"Let her go, Crowley!"
Judy spat having to be held back by Sam. Crowley narrowed his eyes.
"Shut your mouth, chipmunk, the adults are talking."
And with a wave of his hand Judy was sent flying across the dirt covered forest floor. She grunted as the flew sideways and rolled to a stop.
"God damn it, Crowley! Leave her the fuck alone!"
Nikki spat only to get an eye from Crowley warning her to shut her mouth as well.
"Now, since we're on the same page, I want Bobby Singer back. Or we can do the whole ugly song and dance and you can die. Your choice boys."
Crowley said as both Sam and Dean started to charge at him. He sighed and with a wave of his hands he sent the boy's backs smashing into some tree trunks where they became pinned. Nikki grunted as the tried to rise to her feet, but given Crowley's powers he just arched a brow looking down at her.
"Come on darling, you look good on your knees beside me. Don't ruin a good thing, kitten. We'll have plenty of time for that later."
He said winking at her as his hand reached out for the side of her face, brushing her hair back behind her ear. She gritted her teeth at that action making Crowley chuckle. But he wasn't chuckling for long.
He staggered to the side when a gun shot went off. He cursed loudly as the bullet went through the leg of his meat suit taking him down to his own knee. He glanced toward Judy, his eyes narrowed and pissed seeing her standing there holding a gun.
"You little bitch!"
He spat using his powers to not only dig the bullet out but to send her flying again only this time into a tree causing a hard fall to the ground where she didn't move. Nikki felt a rush of panic rush through her body hearing the loud thump of her cousins small body hitting the ground.
"Judy? Judy!"
She cried out helpless to do damn near much of anything.
"Crowley you kill her and I swear I'll fucking drag her out of Hell myself!"
Nikki spat watching as Crowley pulled the bullet from his leg.
"Crowley!"
Another voice called causing the demon to roll his eyes. Sam and Dean seen an angel, Naomi, standing there looking posh as ever. Crowley turned his attention to her they spoke about Bobby Singer and about realising his soul to Heaven.
"Can just let a good thing go. What do I get in return?"
"Your life."
Naomi spat as two more angels appeared beside her. Crowley snorted and snapped his fingers, knowing when he was beaten. Bobby's soul was sprung free and went up to Heaven. Nikki wasn't paying much attention as she had her eyes locked with Judy -- who had still yet to move.
It wasn't until Nikki heard Crowley flirting with the angel didn't something irk her tremendously. She gritted her teeth and sent a glare into the back of Crolwey's head catching Naomi's attention and a bit of Crowley's.
He smirked.
Finally Naomi ended up scaring Crowley off and the boys and Nikki was free to move. Nikki climbed to her feet and rushed toward Judy who she carefully looked over. Her head had a knot on the back of it the size of her hand, but nothing seemed broken.
She had a pulse and was breathing.
