"I don't know," she answered truthfully, voice not as steady as she would have liked it. "Everything's..."
He closed his eyes. He could only imagine what is was like out there--part of him wanted to help. But the other part knew what that meant--certain death, for sure. He gave a soft sigh, kissing her forehead. "I know." He whispered.
"You're wet," she joked, rubbing at her eyes to stop tears before they were born. She swallowed thickly and added, "Colette wanted us to take the twins. Honestly, I'm just glad to be away from...everything."
He shook his head. "It's fine.. I've been sweating in there. Had to get some air." He breathed out, leaning against the wall. "Really? Then yeah, let's get them and head into Colette's room. I'm pretty sure it's safe in there."

Logan was screaming and crying and throwing his body in ways she was certain would break bones eventually and it was hard to keep him under control. Seeing through eyes that were curtained with tears, Emma tried to soothe him; do anything and everything she could. Holding him captive wouldn't help, so she brought him to the little sitting area off to the side so he wouldn't have to see his pained mother. Oh, Harmony...
Rocking him, Emma kept a hand at the back of his head, keeping him close to her, feel her heartbeat, hear her voice. "Come on, baby. Be brave. I know, I know. You want your Mommy. I know, Logan, and I'm so sorry..." She turned her face into the boy's neck for a moment, sucking back her own tears.
"It'll be okay, baby boy." Drops fell down her cheeks and she wondered where Cian was, how her own babies were doing. Though her throat was raw and probably a little hoarse, she thought about calming Logan down with a song. But then she shoved the idea aside, knowing he might not respond well. And right now was no time for ballads or lullabys.
Oliver stared at Luna, bemused, hurt. Where...where did Luna go? Where did his puppy go? his friend? his playmate? The puppy to give him hugs, and lick his face, and play with him in the park, and climb up on his lap, and rub against him, and sleep next to him! His face contorted again, voice starting off at a low, painful moan before rising to a weeping so strained and uneven he wanted to just crawl up and go to sleep.

Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale.
That's all Cian was thinking about. Just breath. Breath and handle Harmony carefully. He laid her out on the table gently and stroked her hair back. Oh fuck, oh fuck. This was his best friend's wife... He didn't know how he had gotten past Logan. Poor little Logan. And poor Emma. And poor... Fuck, everyone. Fuck, but he was calm.
Inhale. Exhale.
He held Dean's shoulder a minute, squeezing minutely. He didn't know if he should stay and support his friend. Because...he wanted to do that. He did. But he also wanted to be with Emma and Oliver and Maura. He wanted this all to be over. But he couldn't think like that. That wouldn't help at all. That wasn't going to just happen.
He would stay. He would stay with Dean and help him through...whatever. Friends were important. And family. And right now... His friend probably needed him.

Hearing that god awful scream leave Logan's lips... He couldn't take it. As soon as they had her on the table, he busted into tears, grabbing Harmony's hand and kissing it gently. "Harm.. come on.. baby, please.. please don't leave me." He begged her, tears streaming down his face.
Colette followed them in and looked over her injuries. He couldn't.. just couldn't lose her. Ever.. Never. Couldn't.. wouldn't. It wasn't going to end this way.. it couldn't. He wouldn't allow it. As Cian squeezed his shoulder, he lost it all over again.
His body shook, as sobs wrecked havoc on his body. Logan.. Oh god.. he had saw her.. and like this. He covered his face with his hand as he shook his head. Couldn't end like this.. It just couldn't. "Harm.." He looked down at her, pushing her hair back. "Listen to me." He told her, his voice cracking.
"I'm not done with you. I am not done loving you. You can not leave me here alone. You hear me?" He cried. "Damn it.. I want more.. I want more kids, I want.. I want.." He broke down into sobs again..
--
Colette couldn't deal with all this.. the people dying.. Logan's scream.. god.. She shook her head as her tears fell down on Harmony's wound. She placed her hand over it and closed her eyes as she cried silently. Gotta heal.. Come on.. focus.. Heal her..
This wasn't happening.. It wasn't. That's that.. it just wasn't. She lifted her hand, seeing that no healing had been done. She shook her head, tears flying as she did so. "Fuck.. come on." She cried, placing her hand there again as she concentrated harder.

She shuddered against him before nodding. "Yeah," she agreed softly, still shaken. "Come on." She trailed back into the twins' room, moving straight for the cribs. Leaning over she saw that they had calmed down substantially. "They don't like to be apart," she mused softly, absently. She picked Parker up, holding him against her chest.
"Hey, baby boy. You're okay, aren't you?" She rocked him a little. "Yeah, you're fine. You're gonna be all right. You're fine, huh?" she spoke in a soft, lilting voice, knowing it would keep him calm. To Tyler, she asked, "You wanna grab Liza? Take her into Colette's room?"
She was sure Mommy wanted to see the twins but no way they could bring Parker and Eliza down there. No way. Not into that mess.

Harmony opened her eyes once she wsa on the table. She wished she could feel the cool wood underneath her skin to sooth her uneasiness, but that wasn't happening. She was useless. She couls mover her neck a tad, but that was it. She listened to Dean as he broke down. She began to cry more violently not being able to move her hair from her face to see him.
Soon, Dean and Cian moved her hair from her face for her. She looked into Dean's eyes. She swallowed painfully as she opened her mouth. The taste of copper was strong in her mouth. She coughed and blood came pouring out. She spt trying to make it to where she could talk. She caught Dean's gaze as he was sobbing.
"De-an." She choked out in a raspy voice. "I can't feel..." She coughed again less blood coming up than before. "I can't feel any-tha-ing." She managed to choke up. She began to cry. She couldn't stand this. She wanted to ask if Logan was okay, if Regan was still crying? She looked in Deans eyes.
She opened her mouth knowing she only had enough strength for one more question. "Dean..." She wheezed a breath out. "Am I dying?" She looked into his eyes her own tearing up and making his handsome figure blurry. She had, had a good life.
She had two beautiful children, a loving handsome husband. She couldn't have asked for a better life. If she was going to go out she rather go out knowing she was loved than feeling like shit....Atleast she didn't feel any pain.
Maybe she could leave this world with a smile on her face.....

Saikoro was relying completely on his senses. He didn't know where he was.....he couldn't see where he was. Stupid! How could he be so stupid as to take on Bellatrix?! Anyhow, what was done, was done. He was blind. And who knew for how long? No one. Luckily, he had managed to get somewhere in all the screaming mess of people out on the streets. It was a surprise he wasn't dead yet. Still, he was trying to find Amarie and the kids. He needed them right about now. He needed to know that they were alright. It was times like this that made him remember he needed a cellphone.
Finally, he stumbled clumsily into what he thought was some kind of familiar place. He could hear voices.....and crying. That didn't make him feel very good. As he took a couple steps forward, reaching out to make sure he didn't run into anything, he began to smell something worse. Blood! And lots of it. Too much of it. "H-Hello? Anyone?" He called quietly and then stopped. He could smell people, familiar people. Dean.............and Colette......and....Emma. Where was he? "Dean? Colette? Emma? Anyone there...?"
At this time, Sai was beginning to believe that deep down, he had severe lygophobia. What else would explain the fact that he was terrified right now?! "A-Anyone.....here? What's...g-going on?" His once solid speech had become stuttered.

Charles burst in through the front door with Laura trailing close behind. They'd been out shopping for christmas presents and were on the way home when the sky went red... and demons came. People were dying left and right, his car was drenched.
"What the hell is going o-" Then he saw all the people. "Where is Colette?" He asked. People shruged but some said the kitchen. Charles grabbed Laura's hand to pull her through the crowed. When they got there he saw something very unnexpected.
"Harm... how... why?" They knew that family so well, it was hard to believe that one of them could... end up like this. Charles walked up to his wife and hugged her. "This isn't good, Colette."

Laura flew right in with her father. Part of her seethed. When they first saw the carnage taking place The Voice felt excited. Even though they planned on working together sometimes The Voice still felt like it was taking charge.
"Mom..." She said, shocked to see Harmony like that. "How did she get that way?" Boy if ever she felt like breaking into the alcohol stash Colette had hiding, it was now. Laura didn't want to see or hear or remember ANY of this. "They're everywhere... killing everyone.. and they all look so happy about it." Laura shuddered. Even if she did get smashed that scene would haunt her. You know I thought it was all fake at first... right? I doubt it...[/i]

"De-an." She choked out in a raspy voice. "I can't feel..." She coughed again less blood coming up than before. "I can't feel any-tha-ing."
He shared knowing glances with Colette and Cian as he shook his head down at Harmony. "It's okay. Colette is going to heal you.. and.. and.. you'll be fine." He choked out, Smoothing her hair back again, he laid a kiss to her forehead. She looked so pale..
He didn't want this... any of this.. Was this happening because he was brought back? Fuck, he'd gladly go back to hell to save everyone from this hell.. Tears blurred his vision as he laid more kisses on her face. "Everything is going to be okay.. okay?" He assured her.. though he wasn't too sure of that.
"Dean..." She wheezed a breath out. "Am I dying?"
His throat was burning like a motherfucker as she asked that. He shook his head furiously, tears flying. "No.." He replied hoarsly. "No baby.. No.. I won't let that. You're not dying okay?" He nodded, squeezing her hand. "You're gonna be healed and we're going to have two to three more kids running around.. and all of this..." He paused a moment. "All of this.. all of it.. will be done. And we'll be happy, we will.." He sobbed. "You're not dying, you hear me? I don't want you to think that, okay? You will die.. but not now.. Not now.. okay?" He shook his head as he sobbed, kissing her lips gently.
---
Logan leaned into her, his loud cries turning into soft ones as he listened to aun' Emmy's soothing voice. He gripped onto her shirt tightly. "I wan daddy... an' an'--" His breathing hitched. "I wan mommmmy" He cried into her shirt.
---
Luna's eyes began shining as tears sprung. Oliver... He was so hurt. She covered her mouth, jumping slightly as Logan cried out for his mother. Seeing Emma tending to him, she took around a corner to where Oliver couldn't see as she shifted back into her canine form--just for him.
She whimpered softly as she walked towards him. Please don't.. don't hate me.. don't turn me away Oliver.. All I ever wanted was to protect you..
---
Tyler nodded softly, following her as she picked up Parker and held him close. He reached into the crib, taking Eliza into his arms and cradeling her against his chest. He smiled, watching Shae with Parker. Couldn't help it.
"Miss Eliza.. Look at you, you're so pretty.. yes you are." He smiled down at her, ticking her just under her chin. "Yeah.. let's go to Mommy's room, huh? Whatcha think about that?" He grinned. Despite so much.. whatever was going on downstairs.. They atleast had to act normal for the kids.
--
"Harm... how... why?"
Colette whirled around, blood stains on her shirt and hands, tears streaming down her eyes as she looked at her husband. Right then and there, she took him into a hug, crying into his shoulder. "I don't know.." She sobbed, pulling Laura into a hug as she entered as well. "I'm just.. I'm so thankful you're both okay." She laid a kiss to both of them.
"They're everywhere... killing everyone.. and they all look so happy about it."
She wiped at her tears, leaning in and whispering to Charles. "I can't heal her.. I can't.. I tried so many times..." She cried. She covered her mouth with her hand as she cried.Hearing Laura's words only brought more worry upon her.
She couldn't take this.. she just couldn't. She leaned into Charles and let the tears win. Letting it all out as she told him everything. "Jonathon and Mia are dead.. Shae is with the twins.. Everyone is looking to me for guidance.. and..." She sobbed, her face growing red. "I can't.. I don't.."
"Dean? Colette? Emma? Anyone there...?"
Sobs still pounding at her, she listened at the voice calling for her. "S-Saikoro?" She called out through cries.

With her empathy on overload, she thought it might hit a spark and die, fail to launch completely. But as of right now, it kept pushing on at full force, taking each and every emotion and showing it to her on a blank slate, out there like a dish to be served. She wanted to cater to each of these emotions, but that would be downright impossible. Emma yearned for Cian, though she was reminded that he was caring for someone who needed him more. And she was holding a child that wasn't hers, but she considered him to be family.
The boy calmed down enough for her to manage him, but it didn't mean his words stung any less. Eyes drifting closed, she rocked the boy gently, letting him cry into her sweater. "I know, sweetheart. And you'll be with them very soon. But right now I need you to stay with me, and be brave. Just like your daddy. Show him how brave you can be. I know you can do it, Logan. I love you so much." Pressing a kiss to the top of his head, she rubbed his back in long, steady strokes.
A familiar voice intervened with her concentration, and she snapped her head up, eyes catching sight of--he was here? After what had happened to him with mutants, she didn't think he'd ever set foot in Biella or any of the other schools again. That didn't, however, restrain her from approaching him. "I'm here, Sai," she addressed him, touching his arm, giving him sense of her presence. He was blind. Good God...
And he was okay. In the background, Oliver's sobs caught her attention and nagged at her to go to him, as well as Mo's. Not wanting to startle Sai, she resisted hugging him. "Are you all right?" she checked. "Come inside. Get closer."
---
As much as he didn't want to give up hope, he knew that the dog wasn't Luna anymore. He'd seen her shift into a human. His friend was gone. Oliver put the side of his face into Benson's chest and clutched his shirt, face red with strain from the cries, eyes swollen and throat hoarse. Luna...
She was gone. But she couldn't be. That day in the park, all those times she slept beside him... Why?

Cian watched the couples reunite around him and that was enough. "I... I gotta..." He trailed off at that, assuming they would understand, but not really caring if they didn't. He pressed his palm to Dean's back once more, doing the same to Colette on the way out. Picking his way through the slight crowd into the foyer, he moved for Andrua and Benson.
"C-Can I?" he asked, already moving to take his children. He held Maura against his chest and balanced Oliver on his hip. He looked down, catching sight of Luna. "Come along, huh?" he offered. Whatever, she was an angel. That was okay. Wasn't like she was demon or something; she was on their side at least. He moved into the side room, then. He ignored Saikoro, didn't even register him really. He made straight for Emma, pulling her into a hug; Oliver, Logan, Maura and all. His breathing got thready, but he was fine. Fine. Just needed her against him. He buried his face into her neck.
--
"Uh-huh," Shaelynne agreed, grinning. "And Parker is so handsome. All the little girls are gonna loooove you, huh boy?" She walked across the hall and into Colette's room. She set Parker at the foot of the bed and laid out in front of him, her head near his toes. Taking his hand in hers, she played at biting his fingers, only gumming them really. "Um-num-num," she said, smiling prettily up at the little boy.
She could almost forget about everything that was going on in the real world. Almost. She felt momentrily guilty that they were hiding out up there but got over quickly. Someone had to do this. Someone had to keep the kids occupied, give them some normalacy. This was their job. She turned, looking to Tyler with Eliza. Passing him a soft smile, she pushed a hand through her hair.

Charles held his weeping wife. The world is turning upside down. Atleast i can tell the government to shove their jobs up their asses now. He sighed then buried his head in his wife's hair. "Where are the twins?" He asked Colette.
He wanted to hug them. If I had gotten out of the car.. He shuddered, realizing just how close he'd come to never seeing his family again. When Colette answered him he nodded. Charles whispered in her ear. "There's nothing we can do here anymore, this is in the hands of God." He held her hand. "Come, you need to be with us right now."

Well so much for our plan of action. We'll have to wait now. You're right. But we need to be with our family right now.[/i] Laura was squished into a hug. Laura felt to much sound around her. All of it was coming from everywhere. Screams on the streets, in the building. Weeping, moaning, whispers. Dispair... agony... Amber.
Where was the wolf when she needed it? This was one of those times when she really needed to get a lick to the face to wake her up from a horrible nightmare. She very well could go AT out in that mess either. So instead she began busying herself with altering the soud waves. She blocked out all soud from outside of the kitchen and left only the inside.
"There's nothing we can do here anymore, this is in the hands of God." Her dad whispered to her mom.
"He's right mom." She nodded.

Harmony listened to Dean and she felt the sob well up inside her. Would she be able to have babies? Would she be able to have sex? Was she really going to live? She prayed to God begging her or him to save her. She loved her family. She wanted nothing more than to live out the rest of her life on earth with Dean and her children.
She looked up at him as he kissed her lips. She kissed back the best she could. She was weak, and she had little strength left in her. "Dean I'm going to rest..." She choked out. She laid her head down not trying to force it up so she could see his face. She looked up in his eyes. "I love you." She said softly.
She could still taste the blood in her mouth, but she could feel it no longer in her throat. She was looking on the brightside maybe she would live. Maybe everything in the end will be okay. Maybe she could still live her life with her Husband and her children. They were her life. Without them nothing would be the same....
Not even death.

"Yes. C-Colette? Where are y--" His call was interrupted when he heard Emma speak. He felt a little better to know Emmanuelle was trying to calm him down. "I-I'm alright...I just...can't see and I can't find a phone. I need a phone." Saikoro spoke quickly...almost panicky. True enough, he was beginning to lose it now. Everyone was crying, wailing, sobbing....shouting...........dying. Yet he couldn't see it. Were Am & the kids still alive? What about the other people he knew? "I need.....I need to talk to--"
Someone shoved past him, and though it wasn't very hard, Sai didn't expect it. He stumbled backwards, tripping over his feet and falling down. He gazed around blindly, smelling something peculiar. Heck, he even sensed pride. Cian...he had a lot of guts to ignore a blind man's presence. Swallowing hard, Saikoro tried to make his way over to more of the voice. The closer he moved to them, the more he smelled blood. He paused and managed to tap Colette lightly on the shoulder. "Colette? W-What's happened....why can I...who's hurt?" He asked frantically.

A phone. Right. Phone. Fumbling into her pocket, she was surprised her cell still worked. She would have thought most of the towers nearby had collapsed. Pulling it out, she flipped it open to give to him, reading a text message she had: EM!! R u & cian & the kids ok???
Received: Danny 2:14pm No time to reply. At least Danny was okay--as of ten minutes ago. Her stomach lurched to think of the Lawrences, going through exactly what they were in Vegas. A tear rolled down her cheek as she placed the phone into Saikoro's hand, folding his fingers over it. He was blind... "To Amarie," she finished for him with a nod, "go ahead. Need me to punch the number in for you?" It was as if her husband's touch did her in again. Without thought, Emma cried into Cian's shoulder, muffling it in his shirt so it didn't upset the kids. She'd dealt with knowing she was going to die before--why did this one seem so much worse? It was when they went down, not if. Was there a way out of this at all? "Harmony," she muttered absently, resting her head on him, "is she okay?" She thought she might not want to know, for the sake of saving herself some heartbreak, but she had to know. Just like she had to fight. And Jesus, they had to get out there soon.

"There's nothing we can do here anymore, this is in the hands of God." He held her hand. "Come, you need to be with us right now."
Her body shook and trembled against her own will. She'd never be more terrified in her entire life, than right here and now. She gave a nod, but couldn't stop the tears. They just continued down her face, dropping to the already blood soaked floor.
"Colette? W-What's happened....why can I...who's hurt?"
Colette reached out a hand to Saikoro, touching his arms softly. "Harmony.." She whispered. She wanted to say more, but her throat was so raw with pain and tears.. she just couldn't. She shook her head softly, holding onto Charles more tightly.
She didn't want this.. and if the world was going to end today.. Then she wanted nothing more than to spend time with her family. She gave Sai's arm a soft squeeze, before pulling Charles toward the stars. She paused before Emma as she watched her and Cian hug. "E-" She closed her eyes tightly, more tears squeezing out. "E-Emma.. I hate to ask.." She cried softly. "But can.. can you and Cian just please.. please stay here.. atleast for.. for now?"
---
Oliver wasn't having it, she knew that. Sighing softly, she shifted back into her human form. She starred at him a moment before trying to speak. "Oliver. I am you're friend, best friend." She smiled, pausing a moment. "I'm sorry.." She reached out touching his cheek gently.
"Come along, huh?"
She looked over at Cian, and then to the kitchen from where he came from. Seeing Harmony laying on the table.. she knew she had to do something. "I will.." She whispered to him, looking over she saw he was hugging Emma close. She closed her eyes softly and moved towards the kitchen, dodging Colette and Charles as they left.
Coming up behind Dean, she laid a hand on his back. "Please.. step back."
---
"Dean I'm going to rest..." She choked out. She laid her head down not trying to force it up so she could see his face. She looked up in his eyes. "I love you."
He closed his eyes, tears leaking down his face onto her shirt. "Rest.." He nodded softly. It was the best thing for her at this point. "I love you." His face scrunched as he stared down at her. "I love you so much." He nodded, sucking in his lips before planting a kiss to her forehead.
"Colette? W-What's happened....why can I...who's hurt?"
Saikoro was here as well? It didn't matter.. Nothing did at this point. He ran his fingers through her hair gently, trying to coax her into sleep, laying another kiss to her face as a tear landed on her cheek. "I'll be right here." He told her. "Not going anywhere... not without you." He suddenly felt a hand on his back, turning, he realized--it was Luna-- or her human--angel self.
"Please.. step back."
He nodded, doing as she wished. He stood nearby though. Swearing to god that he would never.. ever leave Harmony's side ever again...
---
Tyler laid back on the bed, holding Eliza in the air as she giggled. "You's a little airplane." He grinned. "Bwrr..." He began making airplane noises as he moved her about in the air. All the while, his thoughts went to what was going on downstairs, and outside.
Wondering if everyone he knew.. Everyone he cared for... Where they safe? Did they know he loved them? What about his parents, despite their.. past.. did they think of him now? And his little brother.. did he even remember him now? Did he know that.. he didn't want to leave, never wanted to leave him there all alone? Did he know that Tyler loved him more than anything in this world?
--
Logan was suddenly smashed between Emma and Cian. Be brave.. like daddy.. Could he really do that? He pushed against Emma gently. "Down." He told her, his voice calm, though his face was still red. He wanted to see his daddy.. show him that he could be just as brave as him.
He wanted to see his mommy, and his sissy.. Where was Ray-Ray? He forced his way up to Emma's shoulder, his eyes scanning the room. There she was! She was crying so hard.. her little face was red and all scrunched up as someone held her. "I wan Ray-Ray.. I wan down! Lemme down, Aun' Emmy!"

"Harmony," she muttered absently, resting her head on him, "is she okay?"
Cian just held her closer, adjusting slightly to get the kids more comfortable and so Logan could get down. "All right, I guess. I mean, I don't know." He took in a shaky shy and laid soft kisses behind her ear. "She was talking at least. So, that's good." He didn't know. He thought and hoped but he couldn't even comprehend that. He just wanted to forget everything in live forever in that moment. Holding his wife, his son, his daughter. All of them still breathing and alive. If only.
At Colette's entrance, he pulled his face from Emma but kept her close against his body as he listened. "E-Emma.. I hate to ask.." She cried softly. "But can.. can you and Cian just please.. please stay here.. atleast for.. for now?"
He did not want to. If he couldn't ignore this than he couldn't just sit around, locked inside while it happened around him. He needed to go out and do something about it. Fight, try, kill, act. But Colette looked like she really needed them, needed their support. So he would stay. As long as Dean was staying. If and when Dean went out to fight, Cian was leaving too. No way he was letting him go that alone. "Okay," he answered softly.
He looked down at Maura, sucking her thumb with tears crystallizing on her red-rimmed eyes. She met his gaze and gave a little-girl sigh. "Daddy," she murmured around her thumb, resting her head against his chest. She rubbed his soft tee-shirt just above his heart before tapping in rhythm with his heartbeat. It was something she had picked up recently, usually when trying to fall asleep. He watched her silently and nearly broke into tears again. Instead he just rubbed at his daughters back and tried to keep his heart beating. For her.
--
Shaelynne chuckled easily at Tyler's play with Eliza. "Look at that!" she said, feigning great surprising. She pointed to the little girl, turning Parker's head. "Your sister can fly!" Giggles tapering off, she caught wind of Tyler's complex emotions. Wincing, she slid to sit on the edge of the bed. Reaching out, she laid a hand to his shoulder. "All right?" she asked softly.
She wanted to tend to him but she didn't want to let on to the twins that anything was wrong. To compensate, she turned from Tyler a moment, blowing a raspberry on Parker's tummy. She passed the boy a hammed-up grin, crossed her eyes in hope of amusing him. She looked back to Tyler with her normal face. Growing a little pensive, she echoed his thoughts, wondering about the future.

The only thing that was helping her get through this was knowing that Dean was by her side, and the dream she was having. The dream felt so real that it broke her heart to know deep down it wasn't. It was a sunday, and her and dean were sleeping in. They cuddled all morning until the heard the Regan and Logan were awake.
She cooked breakfast. He played with the kids. It was an all-american family moment. Everything was great in her dream. She was playing with Ray, tickling Logan, kissing Dean. Chasing everyone around the house. It was a lazy fun day. Too bad it wasn't real. The shock had finally settled in. She couldn't feel her body, and she was barely able to speak at the moment.
Her breathing had gotten better, but it still hurt to cough mostly because she had swallowed a few tiny shards of glass. That was nothing to worry about though. She was worried about Ray, Logan, and Dean. She was still breathing, and yet Dean was terrified. She remembered that look. He had it once before. The day they got into the car crash, and lost their first kid.
That was the day they truly bonded together and stuck through the hard times. The pain of that accident only grew stronger. She felt the dream began to darken as her mind raced about all her pain in the past along with the pain of not being able to stand or go fight with her husband. The dream faded to the day of Dean's funeral she had remembered it so well, but back then it had been a blur.
She held Logan's hand as she walked over to the casket. She looked down as she felt a sob reach her throat. When she looked inside her heart stopped. The body in the casket was not Dean's...It was her own. A scream formed in her throat and just in time her eyes shot open.
She gasped. She tried to look up to see Dean, but her neck barely turned. He wasn't beside her. "Dean?" She croaked out as she saw a dark haired woman walked towards her. Colette couldn't heal her, what made this chick think she could. Harmony wanted to cry. What use would she be if she couldn't move.....That metal should have killed her. How could anyone love a cripple....?
