71 I Know What You Did Last Summer

A young woman sat staring out the barred window of the room she was locked in. There were indistinct whispering sounds audible only to her.

"Anna?" A female voice called out.

Anna turned to look at the Psychiatrist sitting across from her.

"Do you know where you are? You're at the Connor Beverly Behavioural Medicine Centre in Birmingham."

Anna looked down at the medical bracelet on her wrist.

"Do you know why you're here?"

Anna shrugged her shoulders absentmindedly.

"Do you remember what you did?"

Anna nodded slightly.

"You were hysterical. It took four people to restrain you".

"I...I was trying to warn them" Anna spoke with a sweet angelic voice.

"Warn who?"

"Everyone."

The doctor looked puzzled. Anna looked upset.

"Forget it. It was stupid."

"What were you trying to warn them about?"

Anna turned to face the doctor again.

"Look.. I get it. You think I'm nuts. If I were you I'd think I was nuts. But it's all true." Her lips trembled.

"It's ok. You can tell me Anna. I'm here to listen."

"The End is coming. The apocalypse".

"The apocalypse?" The doctor asked puzzled. "Like in the Bible?"

"Kind of. I mean same bottom line. There are witches and wizards. Magic is real. Some are good and some are bad. This one witch, Lilith, about as bad as you can get, is trying to break the 66 seals to free Lucifer from hell. Lucifer... will bring the apocalypse. So... smoke 'em if you got 'em."

Anna heard indistinct whispering again and looked up, tilting her head as she gazed off distantly. The doctor busily wrote what she said.

"Anna?"

"Sorry"

"What are you doing?"

"Nothing. Just listening".

"So you were saying that there are, uh, 66 of these seals in the world?"

Anna sharply shook her head.

"No. No. There are about 600 possible seals and Lilith only has to break 66 of them. And no one knows which 66 she's gonna break."

"I see."

"Only the first, the 65th and 66th are set in stone. That's why it's nearly impossible to stop her. And that's why the good wizards and witches, the hunters, are losing. That's why the angels are worried. One child is the key to everything. No one knows if he will be good or bad. That's why we're all gonna die."

"This child. He's important."

"Yes. He's the Prophesied One."

—~—

An orderly approached Anna's room. He picked up a small plastic cup of medications and opened her room door.

"Time for your meds Anna" he said sweetly.

Anna was on her bed, drawing in an art book, her back to the orderly. He walked in the room and quietly shut the door, locking it behind him.

"Anna?"

She turned around and gasped, crawling back on the bed in fear.

"What's the matter sweetie?"

"Your face? What happened to your face?" She said as she got off the bed and tried to get backwards towards the wall as far as possible.

The orderly smiled. "I know"

His eyes turned pitch black.

"I'm downright kissable. Shh shh shh."

Anna looked at her chest of drawers next to her in fear. Suddenly they flew across the room, smashing into the orderly and knocking him unconscious. Anna quickly grabbed the keys off his belt, opened her door and ran.

—~—

Y/N apparated into the Leaky Cauldron, it was almost empty apart from the barman, Tom. He was suddenly grabbed from behind. He turned slamming the attacker into the wall, unsheathing his Angel Blade. It stopped millimeters from his attacker's face.

"Sam?"

"Y/N. Jesus" Sam replied in a panic.

"You know who I am. Never grab me from behind man" Y/N snapped angrily. He turned suddenly and saw Tom the publican staring wide eyed at his Angel Blade as it slowly retracted. Y/N pulled a small pouch from his pocket and tossed it over. It was lucky the pub was empty tonight.

"Probably best you didn't see that Tom" Y/N said as Tom nodded and Sam grabbed Y/N and apparated him. The pair appeared in front of the Hogs Head in Hogsmeade, Sam asking as they looked around:

"Can you trust him, Y/N?"

Y/N lifted his hood before entering, walking over to the bar and shaking Aberforth Dumbledore's hand. He then said to Sam:

"He's been working for me for a while. Yeah, I can trust him."

Sam nodded before looking over to someone in a booth and motioning to Y/N with his head. Ruby was sat at a booth by herself, the two hunters sitting across from her.

"Fuck me" Y/N muttered in annoyance.

"Yeah, look I have some info then I'm gone!" Ruby growled angrily. Y/N looked up from where he had been focused, trying to get his legs in the booth and asked "what?" puzzled.

"I know you're pissed off to see me. Even though I saved your life" Ruby replied.

"Actually Ruby I was cursing at these small fucking booths. Way too small for two strapping lads like me and Sam" Y/N corrected her.

"Oh." She said wide eyed. "Right. Sorry".

"So the important info Ruby?" Sam asked.

"I'm hearing a few whispers. The demons have given the Knights a task. A girl named Anna Milton escaped from a locked ward yesterday. The demons are pretty keen on finding her. Every Knight has been tasked with it. Some real heavy hitters have turned up for the Easter egg hunt."

"Why? Who is she?" Y/N asked. "Is she a witch?"

"No. A muggle. No idea why. But if they get hold of her."

"It doesn't bear thinking about!" Sam said.

"Yeah and I'm thinking she's important because the order is to capture her alive."

"Fuck" Y/N exclaimed.

"What?" Sam and Ruby asked at the same time.

"I've been tortured. A lot. I wouldn't wish it on some poor muggle girl. Especially not from those sadistic bastards."

"That's why you two have to get there. As quickly as possible" Ruby answered with sincerity.

"Thanks. This hospital Anna escaped from? Got a name?" Y/N smiled.

—~-

Sam was in a public phone booth outside the Leaky Cauldron in muggle London.

"Great can I have a copy of the missing persons report ready for when I get there in the morning? Thanks."

He hung up the phone and walked to the impala with Y/N. They got in and he started driving.

"Well Anna Milton escaped last night, no solid leads, other than she knocked out a 6'5" orderly with a chest of drawers and stole his keys."

"We sure she's a muggle then?" Y/N asked.

"I don't know. Latent Magic? We'll find out when we get there. I hope."

"Where we going?"

"Birmingham".

"Important question Sam- Acca Dacca or Black Sabbath?" Y/N asked as he sat in the passenger seat and summoned his walkman from his pouch.

"Ugh" Sam replied. "You and your mullet rock."

"Black Sabbath it is" Y/N chuckled saying "War Pigs" as the music blared.

Sam and Y/N were in suits and ties, passing themselves off as MI5 agents.

"The MI5 is concerned with a missing mental health patient?" The doctor in front of them asked with a holier than though attitude. Y/N quickly brought her back to earth as he switched on his arrogant best:

"Anna Milton has ties to important figures in national security we're not at liberty to discuss Doctor. We need to rule out any hostile foreign involvement. Are you willing to help or do we have to go higher?" Y/N asked extremely firmly and grumpily, catching even Sam by surprise.

"No of course I want to help I... sorry agent."

"So the orderly has no recollection of Anna's escape?" Sam asked.

"Apparently she knocked him unconscious. Maybe she used magic" the doctor laughed.

"What?" Y/N asked extremely seriously causing the doctor to gulp.

"Ah it was part of her delusion. Two months ago she was a happy well adjusted journalism major. Lots of friends, bright future."

"So what happened? She just flipped?" Y/N asked, Sam looking up to the ceiling as if he was counting in his head.

Good cop bad cop Sam, relax.

Sam threw Y/N a look.

"Well that's the tragedy of schizophrenia agent. Within weeks Anna was overtaken by delusions."

Sam's eyes narrowed.

"What kind of delusions?"

"She thought demons were everywhere. Not to mention witches and wizards engaged in a war to stop the apocalypse" she said handing Sam a notebook of Anna's drawings.

"Huh" Sam replied.

"Interesting" Y/N added in a tone which the doctor couldn't tell if he was sincere or sarcastic.

The first page was a distinct church window on a chapel.

The next page said Raising of the Witnesses and had a picture of Bobby's witnesses.

Then another saying 'Samhain the next seal broken' with a picture that looked like the douchebag Don.

Finally the last page just said Croatoan.

"It's not unusual for our patients to believe monsters are real."

Y/N smiled at the doctor.

"Well that- that's just batty."

Sam's face turned serious as he flipped through the book, as did Y/N's.

"That's Revelations" Y/N said to Sam who nodded.

"Since when does the Book of Revelations have Jack-o-lanterns?" The doctor sniggered at Y/N.

"It's a uh little known translation" Y/N smirked at her.

"Ah. Well Anna's father is a Reverend. When she became ill her paranoia took on religious overtones. She was convinced the Devil and his antichrist Voldemort were about to rise up and end the world. And only a messianic Jesus figure known as the 'Prophesied One' could save us all."

Y/N seemed to shuffle uncomfortably.

"No pressure on the kid at all then."

"I didn't say he was a kid agent?" The doctor quizzed puzzled.

"Figure of speech doc."

"Right. Well I hope you find her. It's dangerous for her to be alone right now."

—~—

"Not a word Y/N" Sam said as they left the maximum security ward.

"Not sure I'm comfortable being compared to Jesus, Sammy. I'm more humble than that. Moses maybe?"

Sam rolled his eyes.

—~—

Sam and Y/N were approaching a house in an affluent part of Birmingham. It was a nice neighbourhood with spacious gardens and children playing in the street.

"Ever live in a place like this Sam?"

"Once Y/N, a long time ago. You?"

"Nope" he answered as they got to the door.

There was a nice sign post which said 'The Miltons' next to the door as Y/N knocked firmly.

"Maybe they're not home" Y/N said. "I'm not picking up any brainwaves."

"Both cars in the driveway" Sam answered looking around.

"Fuck" Y/N said as he opened the door and it was unlocked.

"Mr and Mrs Milton?" Y/N called out.

"We're from MI5. Just wanted to ask you a few questions about your daughter" Sam elaborated.

He stopped and sighed as they came onto the bodies of Mr and Mrs Milton on the floor with their throats cut. Y/N leant down and touched a powdery substance on the floor. He sniffed it before turning his head in disgust.

"Fuck. Sulfur. Fucking demonic cunts".

"Demons beat us here. Whatever the deal is with this Anna girl..."

"Yeah they want her. And they aren't screwing around" Y/N added.

"Alright so I'm "One flew over the cuckoos nest" and I know the score of the apocalypse, just busted out of the nut house- possibly using superpowers by the way. Where do I go?" Y/N asked.

Sam picked up a photo in a frame.

"Hey you got those sketches from Anna's notebook?"

Y/N pulled them from his pocket and handed them to Sam. They matched the church steeple behind the family in the photo.

"She was drawing the window of her church over and over again." Y/N concluded.

"If you were religious, scared and had demons on your arse where would you go to feel safe?"

—~—

The church bell tolled as Y/N and Sam entered with wands drawn. They climbed the stairs to the private area of the chapel looking around.

Anna was hiding behind furniture, looking at them scared out of her mind.

Sam saw a reflection behind some stained glass and whispered.

"Y/N"

They lowered their wands.

"Anna, we're not gonna hurt you. We're here to help." Sam said in a gentle tone.

"My name is Sam, this is my partner Y/N"

"Sam?" Anna spoke with her soft voice.

"Not Sam Winchester?"

"Uh, Yeah" Sam answered puzzled as he and Y/N looked at each other. Anna walked out and stood in front of them.

"And you're Y/N! The Y/N."

Y/N chuckled. "Yeah I'm the Y/N"

Sam elbowed him in the side.

"It's really you! Oh my God! The Prophesied One." Anna smiled widely. She walked up and stroked Y/N's face, landing on his beard.

"You're so much bigger and older looking than I thought, and that beard. You're really just 14."

"I am" Y/N said, slightly uncomfortable from the close physical contact.

"The angels talk about you. You were in Hell, in the hole, but now you're out and some of them think you can save us. You've been delivering divine justice everywhere."

She looked at Sam.

"Some of them don't like you at all".

"What? why?" Sam asked shocked.

"They think you're a bad influence on Y/N."

Sam stuttered in disbelief as Y/N chuckled:

"Well I do drink a lot more since I met you."

"They talk about the two of you all the time lately. I feel like I know you" Anna smiled.

"So you talk to angels?" Y/N asked stunned.

"Oh no. No no way. Um, they probably don't even know I exist. I just kind of overhear them."

"You overhear them?" Sam asked shocked.

"Yeah, they talk and sometimes I just... hear them in my head."

"Like... right now?" Y/N asked, completely blown away by the revelation. He turned to Sam and remarked:

"She's an Angel legilimens Sam"

"Ohh that's part of your magic isn't it. The angels say you're powerful Y/N. Maybe the most powerful. Ever. And i can't hear them this second, but a lot. And I can't shut them out, there are so many of them."

Y/N nodded and looked at Anna empathetically:

"So they lock you up with the crazies when really you were just tuning in to angel radio?"

"Yes. Thank you. Is Hermione here?" Anna smiled in relief.

"Herm.. how do you know about my girlfriend?" Y/N asked suddenly concerned.

"The angels speak of the two of you. How you are soulmates. It's really sweet how much you care for her. But the angels are really concerned if something happens to her."

"I won't let that happen." Y/N said suddenly fierce.

Anna nodded. "That's what the one called Castiel said. That you would tear apart heaven, earth and hell itself to protect her."

"I'll have to thank him." Y/N chuckled.

"Anna when did all this happen?" Sam asked.

"I remember the exact date. August 23rd" Anna replied.

Y/N looked at Sam. "That's the day I got out of Azkaban."

Anna nodded.

"First words I heard. Clear as a bell. Y/N L/N is saved."

"What do you think?" Y/N asked Sam.

"It's above my pay grade man" Sam answered.

"Great, you're the Professor. Maybe take her to Hogwarts?"

"We would have to run that past Albus at least. Couldn't tell the ministry because of the SOS".

"Well at least we know why the demons want you so bad. They get ahold of you, they can hear everything the other side is cooking. You're 1-900-Angel" Y/N chuckled.

Anna smiled and laughed as well, relieved to not be crazy, happy at how kind Y/N and Sam were.

"Hey um do you know are my parents ok? I didn't go home. I was afraid."

Suddenly the door slammed and Ruby rushed in.

"You got the girl, Good let's go."

"Ruby?" Sam asked.

"Ruby? The Knight?" Anna backed up in fear.

"It's ok she's here to help" Sam said.

"We have to hurry" Ruby said in fear.

"Why?" Y/N asked as his wand unsheathed.

"Because a demon's coming. The demon. The King of Hell. Alastair."

"That's convenient you turning up just as he does!" Y/N snapped.

"I didn't bring him here you did" Ruby snapped back.

"What?"

"He followed you from the girls house. Come on we gotta go".

"Y/N" Sam said pointing to a statue of the Virgin Mary. It suddenly started crying tears of blood.

"It's too late. He's here" Ruby said in obvious genuine fear.

"Ruby get her out of here now. Sam and I will buy you time" Y/N said quickly.

"What?" Anna and Ruby said at the same time.

"We can't let him get you Anna. Go. Now!"

Ruby ran to Anna and grabbed her, apparating.

"Hope you're right about her Sammy." Y/N said as he unsheathed his second wand, Sam grabbing his wand as well.

The door blasted open as a middle aged man walked through, an arrogant look on his face.

The hunters slammed him instantly with killing curses, bludgeoning curses, holy water- anything they could think of.

Alastair cleared his throat.

"That tickles. You don't have the juice to take me on Sam."

He flicked his wrist and Sam was sent hurtling across the room, slamming through a supporting wooden beam.

"And you. Prophesied One. You're a big boy aren't you."

Y/N sheathed his wand as magic was ineffective. He lifted his fists.

"Come on you hell bound shitstain."

Alastair tried the same move with Y/N but nothing happened.

"Demon crap doesn't work on me".

"No Archon, it doesn't does it. Let's do this the old fashioned way then."

They approached each other throwing and connecting punches, Alastair's punches hurt like hell but Y/N had to stay close to the demon, he saw an opening and unsheathed his Angel Blade, just missing Alastair by a fraction of a centimetre as he pulled his head back.

"Oh I know about your toy, boy." He picked Y/N up and threw him to the 12ft ceiling, Y/N slammed into it hard before he landed with a hard thump and groaned in pain.

Y/N looked up at him as fist after fist slammed into his face with one hand as Alastair held Y/N's left hand above his head so he couldn't aim his Angel Blade. Y/N looked up at him bloody and bruised.

"I've got so much to thank you for boy".

Y/N spat blood in his face.

"Fuck you hellspawn. I'm gonna be the one who kills you."

Alastair chuckled before turning around just as Sam got to him. Sam was too quick though, shoving his wand into Alastair's open mouth and quickly cast the holy water spell.

Alastair stumbled back choking as Sam grabbed Y/N and dragged him to his feet- throwing them both towards and out the second story window.

They landed hard but managed to stumble to their feet and to the car, both jumping in as Sam drove off quickly.

Alastair looked out the broken window and chuckled.

—~—

Sam groaned as he healed himself the best he could, he had a deep laceration on his arm he couldn't magically heal so he was stitching himself the muggle way.

"Too deep for anything I know" he called out to Y/N who was gargling water from a cup and spitting blood into the hotel bathroom.

"You nearly done?" He called out, his face already puffing up. He had fixed his broken nose and cheekbone but couldn't do much about the swelling. What he wouldn't give for Chiara or Poppy now.

He walked back to the sleeping area holding his arm to his side. Sam groaned in pain as the needle ripped through his flesh.

"I'm going as fast as I can" Sam replied.

"Good. Do you know the spell for a dislocated shoulder?"

"No. I'll have to pop it back in when I finish."

"Fuck. That's gonna suck." Y/N chuckled as he limped to look at Sam's arm.

"Fuck man that looks painful".

"Trying not to think about it Y/N."

Y/N sculled a big swig of Scotch to kill the pain as Sam called for it.

Y/N handed him the half empty bottle, Sam poured some on his arm to sterilise it before sucking back a big swig himself. He got up and put one hand in front of Y/N's shoulder and one on the back.

"On three.... one"

A sickening crack was heard.

"Ugggh" Y/N groaned in pain as he lifted his shoulder to get it moving.

"Thanks man, without my threshold that really would've sucked. We've gotta find Anna. You sure about Ruby?"

"Yeah Y/N"

"I think it's just as likely she used us to find radio girl and brought Alastair in to kill us."

"No she took Anna to keep her safe."

"Alright man, I trust your call. I wish she would contact us." Y/N said as he placed an ice pack on his shoulder.

"Yeah but Y/N he is probably watching us right now, waiting to follow us to Anna. It's why he let us go."

Y/N chuckled to Sam. "You call this letting us go?"

"Yeah. Killing us would have been nothing to a thing like that Y/N."

"A couple of millimetres Sammy" Y/N unsheathed his Blade. "I would've had the sucker."

"King of hell Y/N, don't beat yourself up."

"Nah, that prick did it for me."

They jumped as there was a knock at the door.

"Housekeeping".

"Come back later" Y/N called back.

The woman knocked again louder.

"Fuck sake" Y/N walked to the door pissed off as he opened it.

"I said..."

A short heavy set African woman pushed passed him and closed the curtains. She handed Sam a note.

"She's at this address".

Sam and Y/N both raised eyebrows and looked puzzled.

"I'm sorry what?" Sam chuckled.

The woman pointed behind him.

"Go now. Out the bathroom window. Don't stop, don't take your car, don't pass go. There are demons in the hallway and parking lot."

"Wait... Ruby?"

"Yes Ruby imperio'd me for a hot minute. Sue her. She said for you to obliviate me before you leave."

Before Sam could react Y/N had his wand out.

Obliviate

"Let's go. Now" Y/N said as he rushed to the bathroom. "We have to get to Anna".

—~—

Sam and Y/N arrived at the cabin. Ruby opening the door to let them in.

"Glad you could make it".

"Anna are you ok?" Sam asked.

"Yeah I think so. Ruby's really nice. She's not like the other Knights the angels talk about. She saved my life."

Ruby looked down smiling.

"You know Gerald?" Y/N asked quietly standing next to her as Sam kept talking to Anna.

"Yeah. I did. He was a fucking sadistic monster. The things he did to young women.... it's one of the reasons I left the Knights. Made me physically sick"

"Well in that case. You're welcome".

"That was you? You're the Punisher?" She asked in shock. Y/N turned and winked at her.

"Good job. Did he suffer?"

"Physically he was out after the second blow. Psychologically... let's just say his bladder and bowels released, multiple times, before his heart stopped."

Ruby was quiet for a moment before she muttered: "Good."

"Hey Sam. Do you think I can make a quick call? Just to my parents. They must be completely freaked." Anna asked with a smile.

Y/N exhaled deeply. This was the worst part of the job. Delivering devastatingly terrible news.

"Anna... I'm so sorry...." Sam started before Anna broke into tears.

"No. No. No. Why is this happening?"

She instantly hugged Sam tightly and he tried his best to comfort her before she suddenly got up in fear.

"They're coming. They're coming."

The lights dimmed and exploded. The walls suddenly vibrated, Sam rushed Anna to a small back room in the cabin.

"Stay here and stay quiet."

Anna nodded as he shut the door. Ruby, Sam and Y/N lined up with their wands drawn.

"Hit em with Holy water guys. Just get me close to them" Y/N said as his adrenaline started to rush.

Suddenly the door smashed open as a massive breeze blew through the cabin, the three of them struggling to stay on their feet. Everything died down as Castiel and Uriel walked into the Cabin.

Ruby quickly moved back and hid behind Y/N's giant frame.

"Please tell me you're here to help." Y/N said to Castiel. "We've been having Demon issues all day."

"Is that why you're whoring around with this soulless stain?" Uriel barked at Ruby.

Y/N actually felt bad for her.

"Hey back off you arrogant cunt. I like Cass but you... my blade hasn't tasted Angel flesh before and it's mighty curious."

"You dare threaten me boy!" Uriel roared.

Castiel put his hand on Uriel's shoulder.

"Enough, both of you. We're here for Anna"

"Here for her like here for her?" Y/N asked confused.

"Stop talking. Give her to us!" Uriel commanded.

"You're really pissing me off Cupid".

Sam was now trying to hold Y/N back.

"Are you gonna help her?" Sam asked as he tried to control Y/N.

"No" Castiel answered as Uriel smirked.

"She has to die".
