Bab 10: Chapter seven
Chapter 7
“Hey! Who turned out the lights?!” Alex jumped up from her bed as all of the lights in the mansion shut off. She groaned and went downstairs to ask her father what was going on. “Daaad…” When she got downstairs she saw Crowley still sitting in his chair, smiling. “What’s going on?”
“Nothing much, darling.” He stood up and put his drink down on the table beside him. “I have work to do so don’t bother me.”
“Well what am I supposed to do with no electricity!?” Alex exclaimed as she watched him walk from the room. She sighed, then heard a familiar voice from the other room.
“It’s Crowley, right?” Alex’s eyes widened. She made herself invisible and followed her father, not making a sound.
Crowley stopped walking suddenly, noticing the rug wasn’t perfectly flat like it usually was. Alex stopped walking too, almost too late, noticing the rug had a devil’s trap underneath it. T
Sam and Dean looked at the rug nervously as Crowley lifted it up and folded it back, revealing the devil’s trap. “Do you have any idea how much this rug costs?” He asked, standing again. Suddenly Sam and Dean were both grabbed by demons, and Alex hid around a corner, knowing that her father and the demons would eventually be able to sense her standing there.
“This is it, right?” Crowley lifted up the Colt. “This is what it’s all about.” He cocked the gun and aimed it at Dean, but shot the demon holding him, then did the same for Sam. “We need to talk…..” Crowley glanced in Alex’s direction, signaling that the last part was addressed to her, before leading the boys into another room and shutting the door.
She made herself visible again and stood in front of the door, pressing her ear against the wood.
“...Why tell us anything?” She heard Sam ask.
“I want you to take this thing to Lucifer and empty it into his face.” Alex backed away from the door a little. She moved back towards the door to hear the rest. This was the first time she had heard her dad talk of killing the devil. Alex had been spending a lot of time with the archangel, some of it spent talking about how to beat Lucifer, but most of it them just fucking around and getting pretty close to eachother.
“Why exactly would you want the devil dead..?” Dean questioned.
“It’s called,” Alex heard the sound of Crowley placing the Colt on his desk. “Survival. But I forgot, you two- at best- are functional morons.”
“Yeah you’re functioning...morons…” Dean tried. Alex snorted softly.
“Lucifer isn’t a demon remember, he’s an angel. An angel famous for his hatred of humankind. To him you’re just….Filthy bags of pus...If that’s the way he feels about you, what can he think about us?” Crowley explained. Alex thought.
“But he created you.” Sam pointed out.
“To him we’re just servants...Cannon fodder….If Lucifer manages to exterminate humankind, we’re next.” Crowley informed them.
“So...Help me, huh?” Crowley offered. “Let’s all go back to simpler, better times. Back to...when we could all follow our natures. I’m in sales dammit! So what do you say, What if...I give you this thing and you go kill the devil.”
Alex backed away from the door, knowing they’d be coming out soon. She ran up to her room, “How do I explain to them why I’m here?! Or why I want to go with them? They won’t let me….They think I’m just a hunter. What do you think, boy?” She looked over at Leo who was laying on her bed. She then groaned, “I don’t even know where Lucifer’s going to be!” She used her powers, hoping that her super-hearing could pick up their conversation.
“.....Thursday….Carthage, Missouri….” Alex could faintly hear Crowley tell the brothers. Alex smirked and stopped eavesdropping.
“I still don’t have a plan…” She muttered.
“Plan for what?” Alex turned around to see Gabriel standing there.
“What are you doing here!” Alex exclaimed. Leo started barking and tried to attack him. “Leo no!” She grabbed his collar, which was all Gabriel could see, and pulled him back. “Sit.” Alex commanded. Leo looked up at her in confusion, but listened.
“So…” Gabriel took a step away from the Hellhound. “What do you need a plan for?”
“Well...My dad gave the Winchester’s the Colt and he’s sending them to...uh….Kill Lucifer….” She explained, still holding Leo’s collar. “And I know it’s not going to work.. I want to go with them to help.”
“What! No, that’s stupid! You can’t go with them!” Gabriel exclaimed.
“They’re going to get themselves killed! Or worse!” Alex argued.
“But if you go, you’re basically handing over Lucifer’s greatest weapon to him!” Gabriel protested. “And not to mention his vessel will be there too!”
“I don’t care! I’m not going to let them go at this alone. If the gun doesn’t work, I’m their only hope.”
Gabriel sighed, “Please don’t.”
Alex was a little taken-aback, but ignored his pleas. “No. I have to.”
“Alex wait-” Gabriel was cut off as Alex teleported out of the mansion, taking Leo with her.

“Fuck…” Alex watched as the black Impala drove off. “Maybe I can just follow them back to their hotel, and explain to them there." She ran over to her car and climbed in, easily catching up to the Impala, but making sure she wasn’t suspicious. She followed them all the way to ‘Singer’s auto salvage’.
