Skyler's POV

After 5 hours on the road, searching for Dean and Kat, Sam and I finally stopped to get a motel room.

Cas seemed to be absent today.
That wasn't new.
He was gone for a few days now.
Probably just some of his stupid angel business.

Once we got into the room -or at least one of them- Sam opened his laptop, reveling the bright screen but he got up from his chair to the door.
"I'm going out to get some food, want anything?"
"Get me a pizza" I mumbled, throwing myself at the sofa, slowly falling asleep.
Get up! I heard in my mind.
As soon as Sam closed the door,
I got up on my feet. I felt a little dizzy, heat waves coming to me. Although, it quickly stopped.

I opened my laptop, searching anything about this silly funhouse.
Clowns...
Why would clowns take kids?
Did they kill them?
Do they ask for anything in return?

As I asked myself these question,
My mind went to darker places.
Why do angels posses people?
How come I never remember where Cas takes me?
Where's Dean and Kat?
More importantly, where's Sam and my pizza?

Before I even have the chance to come back to reality,
The door opened, and Sam was there, holding a big pizza and a small salad.
He sat down,and tossed the big box towards me,half open.
The smell of cheese and pineapples came to my direction.
I opened the box and started to munch, almost like I haven't eaten in days.

"So...how's it like...being possessed by an angel?" Sam said, failing at trying to small-talk. But I didn't mind.
"It's kinda like you're not there, like you're going to sleep and when you wake up you're 500 miles away from where you left off, your clothes soaked with blood. It's weird, but you get used to it as time goes by."
"Huh..." He whispered, and suddenly the door opened.
Dean was there.

Dean's POV

"Honey I'm home!" I barked, throwing my bag on the table, almost hitting Skyler.
"Dean!" They both called, their faces priceless.
"Dean... how did you get here?
Where's Kat?" Sam asked, leaving the table and heading towards me.
"She just...vanished. Now, brother dearest, let me take a shower."
I went to the bathroom, leaving the two shocked hunters to keep on with their work.

*an hour later*

"Wow Dean you take an hour to shower?" Skyler snapped, one slice of pizza left in her box.

"Yeah and you eat a whole pizza in one hour" I snapped back.
She looked angry, which means I won.

"So...did you find anything about these clowns?" I sat down at the char next to Sammy's.
He seemed disturbed, in a worrying way.

"I think it's our second biggest problem..there's nothing. Nothing at all" he trembled, leaning even closer to his computer.
That can't be good.

"So what are they?" I asked.
"Maybe shapeshifters?" Skyler suggested.
"Ugh I hate shapeshifters. Always on my nerves..."

"It can't be, there was no sighs of skin anywhere, plus, they weren't even shown on the security cameras,
It just shows the kids being lifted in the air" Sam remarked.

"So what can it be? Demons? Maybe angels?" Skyler suggested. Again.

"Wouldn't you know what angels do? Where's Cas anyway?"

Suddenly, Skyler's eyes flashed blue, and she seemed to sit straighter.

"I'm right here Dean" Cas remarked, pulling back from his business.
"Where were you all day?!" I demanded to know, as i stood up and almost falling from my chair.
"I had things to do, Dean, I can't sit here all day with you" he turned his back, looking away.
He feared my gaze.
Why?

"Fine, that's not the point now.
Kat disappeared and two kids were taken by clowns. We're in big trouble"

Have you considered the clowns to be..." He asked, but his eyes flashed blue again, and Skyler was talking now.

"Wow is it just me or is it hot here? Wait, was Cas here? What did he tell you?" She begged, seeming a bit dizzy still.
Wow, what can an angel do to you?

Sam's POV

"You know what? Lets go look ourselves. Maybe we'll find something. Maybe Cas will come back!" I hissed, picking up my duffle bag, which was already ready.
Are they ready?

"C'mon Skyler, we don't have all day!" Dean shouted, and a second later she was back.
"Ready?" I asked
"I'm ready Sam you don't need to ask me" now I can tell who it is.

"Dammit Cas!" Dean called.
And then we left.

Castiel's POV

The three of us got into the car, driving rather quickly.
"So Cas...you were gonna say something...what was it?" Dean asked, looking strictly at the road for a change.

"Oh yes, angels were calling, I said, did you consider them to be Ellusions?" Sam seemed to be shocked, and Dean seemed to be rather angry now.
Was it something I said?

"Dammit!" Dean barked, pushing the gas harder, driving paster.
"Of course, Ellusions, why didn't we think of that?!" Sam sneered.

"If they are Ellusions, what kills them?"
"Ruby knifes" I quickly answered.
"Great" Dean cheered sarcastically.

Soon enough, we were back at the funhouse.
It seemed definitely haunted.
It made me feel a bit sick.
But it was something else that has taken my interest.

"Dean.." I mumbled, pointing towards the funhouse.
"Do you have a Ruby knife?"
"No, but we have ruby bullets" Sam opened the truck on the impala reviling the big collection of guns and knifes and pretty much every weapon in the world.

"You never know when you'll need them,so always be ready" Dean quickly filled three guns with bullets and throwing one to me, and another to Sam.

The three of us, Team Free Will, sneaked slowly into the house, Dean on the lead, Sam right behind him.

"Hey guys!" Kat boomed, walking around the room.
"Kat,where were you?!" Dean whispered, almost chocking her, but his morals held him back. How odd.
"Here, mostly" she had a Rudy knife in her hand.
"Did you know about this?
Is this why you just decided to run away?!" It was Sam's turn to shout, quietly of course.

It could be any moment now that the clowns would just jump from nowhere, yet no one was ready for it.

I'll just to wait and see.

Kat's POV

Just before I could say anything, one of those clowns jumped up behind me.
Luckily the ruby knife was already in my hand.
The blade went through his neck, blood splattered everywhere.
As he fell to the floor I almost felt guilty. Killing my own people.
One of my kind.

But no.
It's about murder.
It's about death.
Not shame.
Not love.

The brothers quickly turned around to look for anymore of the clowns, as I looked at the dying body of someone like me. Like us.

Three more clowns jumped up from the air, attacking the boys. But I couldn't move. Not even a bit.

Cas seemed to be absent.

How many were they, it was hard to tell, my vision was blurry, but I could see that a few if them were heading towards me.

My shining knife went through the air,
Rubies ; Blood ; Screaming ; Death ; Bodies.

As my vision got better, I noticed Sam and Dean were on the floor.

Was it up to just me now?

As I tried to step up to the fight,
Three bullet shots were heard.
Boom ; boom ; boom.

Her hands were shaking, tears dropping on her cheeks.
Skyler killed three men.
Skyler killed three Ellusions.

"Cas!" Dean shouted, lifting himself and Sam off the ground.
"Cas can't answer the phone now. It's only me" Skyler mumbled, her voice shaking at the same time as her hands and knees.

And then she fell on the floor.

Notes

it took me some time but the chapter is finally here!
enjoy! (Oh just as an FYI one of the Ellusions got away)
