Into The Groove (Open)
It was one her days off (she was enjoying those), and as she smoked and wandered around the city park she thought about the things that she knew about the place she was in:
1. She was in The City.
2. The people who were here were not from her world.
3. She had a jobs and could keep up her smoking habit.

Actually, being on her own wasn't so bad. She did miss Red. And she missed her relationship with Abe.

She sighed as she walked, her thoughts in a totally different place than the park she was in.

Time was getting closer for Dean. Before he went back to the motel to meet with Sam, Dean took a moment to walk in the park. To clear his head. It was a jumbled mess of thoughts he wasn't sure about.

He didn't see the woman walking with a smoke in her hand. His own were deep in his pocket, head down as rattlings of childhood and his father's voice were echoing in his head.

He banged into her, shoulders bumping, "Huh, oh sorry."

	Liz too hadn't seen the man that she'd bumped into. But she smiled, since the two of them had been totally oblivious and hadn't noticed each other. "I'm sorry too, totally didn't notice you there. I'm guessing we were both lost in our own thoughts." She took a long drag from her cigarette, wondering if the guy had been in a rush and she was wrong. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Dean stepped back a little, trying to get a better look at her. He gave her a quick glance over, close to the type of girl he would go after. Nice lips. Cute eyes. Nice dark hair to hold onto during sex. Only one problem. She smoked. Turn off. Unless she found other ways to persuade him.

"Yeah, I guess we were. Not normally like this, just, have some heavy things to think about." Dean half explained and clearly not sure why he was in the first place.

Others had tried to get Liz to quit her smoking habit. They were soon burned, sometimes literally from the experience.

She glanced him over and decided quickly that he probably couldn't harm her. After all, she did have the power of fire living within her.

She nodded in understanding to what he said, "Yeah, a lot has changed for me since I came to The City, namely that I know no one... so I find myself here in the park more often than not."

Dean might had looked harmless but he was loaded up. Years of having to expect the unexpected and training from his father had Dean always carrying weapons. That and he just didn't feel comfortable without one.

The Colt was at his back, tucked in his pants. His other pearl handle Colt was in a pocket in the leather jacket he was wearing, which looked like it had seen better days. A knife was in the other pocket and he also had one tucked in his boot.

"Just new here huh?" He knew the feeling but that wasn't what had him so disturbed. He was already see true faces. Demons. "Well how about we fix that," though temporary as it may be, hell hounds were going to get him soon enough, "Dean Winchester," he extended his hand.

She took the mans extended hand and gave a firm handshake back, "Name's Liz Sherman, and I am indeed new here. Seems like that could be a common occurrence around here though, new people coming through."

She'd been lucky here so far. The apartment she'd found had been filled with her things, including her guns, clothes and books. And she'd found a job quickly enough.

"Been around here a while, or are you new here too?" She could be friendly and not just a loner."

Upon the touching of hands, Dean looked to her with that charming smile of his but what he saw made him almost jerk his hand back.

There was fire. A fire unlike any he had seen before. It wasn't hell fire-ish. It was more like it was ... living. He feverishly blinked his eyes and then it was gone.

He swallowed, "No, no, not new," he gathered himself quickly. "Been here a few months. See a few new people like you about. Let me guess, the City provided you a place to stay with all your fixings?" Stupid City didn't do that for him. But then honestly, his car was the only true place he called home. Him or Sam for that matter. Though Sam did have a place once with Jessica. Dean, well just the Impala.

"If so, lucky you," Dean answered.

The reaction that Dean had given her made her narrow her eyes. He'd realized something through that touch. Could this man be anything like Abe. Abe could see things through touch too.

Liz licked her lips and realized that her cigarette had gone out and that she'd been without one. She reached into her pocket and pulled out the Lucky 7's that she smoked. Putting the cigarette to her lips, she raised her finger up to light it.

"Yeah, I guess it was pretty lucky. It was better than having to start all over again. I do have to say that I miss my... er, co-workers." She wasn't sure what else to call them. Some of the people in the B.P.R.D. were more like family, but that story would probably just bore Dean.

"Sounds like you didn't get all the fixings when you got here then..."

Dean watched as a flame sprang from her finger to light the cancer stick between her lips. He took a slight step back wondering what the heck she was. Was she someone sent after him? Did she work with Lilith? He wasn't seeing a demon face upon her.

"No," he answered, "Didn't get all the fixings but then again, usually on the road a lot," he left out the fact it was hunting things similar to her.

"But I have my car, that's the best part," he gave a smile cause really, his car was his home.

She was busy watching his reaction to her and she figured that she should nip the whole demon thing in the bud. "If you're wondering if I'm a demon or something, I'm not. I'm 99% human with some fire that resides in the rest, and I've seen some demons before. Believe me, I'm not one." She grinned and puffed on her cigarette.

After exhaling she said, "well, it sounds like your car is where your heart is. I've never been much of a mover, but I do like my space. It must be hard to be stuck here in The City then, especially since there doesn't seem to be any way to get out." She'd read that somewhere in the newspaper. The City was it. Others had looked for a way out, but they couldn't find it.

Dean stared for a moment, still seeing the flame even though the one at her finger was out. It danced around as if alive and he got the sense it was. And it wasn't like a normal flame either. Blues and whites, strangely fearful and yet not so much to him.

"Yeah, I know you're not a demon. Trust me, I know." If she was, she would be tormenting him. Demons knew the Winchesters just by the scent of their souls, or so it seemed. Since he was a kid, he seen demons, fought them, more so now than ever.

Dean's head ached, he wasn't sure if it was from the thought of not getting out or something else. "It's like one of the family," he answered. "It's annoying to say the least." Especially since there were so many lives him and Sam could be saving not to mention his own.

"Can I ask you something," He paused, "What's the deal with the fire?"

She shrugged at his question. "Puberty is the deal. I hit puberty and it was there. I actually just fairly recently got the power under control though." She shuddered as the memories of the fire that started the first time her power had flared. Her power had destroyed all of her family in one stroke.

"I have to agree with you when you say that The City is annoying. Not being able to leave when you want... well, let's just say that you're not the only one that wants to leave." She hadn't thought much about leaving, but being stuck somewhere wasn't much fun. She sighed heavily.

"So how long have you been here in The City?"

"So, telling me, you don't know how or why you got it." Story of their life, well with Sam anyway. They didn't start learning answers till recently.

"I feel like we are some lab experiment. Like living in a fish tank and sometimes someone taps the side. Suck majorly. And everything I tried doesn't seem to work." Dean shrugged.

He thought for a moment then shrugged, "Several months, sort of lost track of time."

"That's correct, I have no idea where the power came from, or why it was in me or anything. You add in a dash of puberty and a pinch of adolescent teasing and you have a gigantic fire that came from me." To be perfectly honest, she hadn't thought much about how she'd gotten the power or why. Most of her life had been spent controlling it. Any emotional overage and poof, a fire started.

"I haven't been here very long myself... I dunno why I was brought here, but," she shrugged and she looked down at the cigarette that she'd forgotten about long ago, "I got what I needed and hadn't thought about it too much... although the experiment thing is an interesting idea. See what happens when you throw a bunch of people in from different times and places and see what happens..." At least so far there hadn't been any elves, or anything with tentacles. Now that was a good thing.

Dean looked at her, "You know, from my experience, if you get what you need, there is usually a price that comes along with it. Sometimes one with sever penalties. Interest usually comes due all at once." Like his soul. He traded it for Sam's life. If he had to do it all over again, honestly, things wouldn't change.

"Forces are behind all this. Be them angelic, demonic or just plan twisted out there and if I can find out who or what it is," it was going down. He was gonna find a way to stop it and free everyone.

He paused a moment, "Ever think this might be purgatory?"

Liz lit another cigarette while she thought about what Dean had said. "I always thought that purgatory would be less... normal. I mean, people here work, have jobs, go about their lives. I guess there does seem to be something missing around this place though..." She took a long puff and exhaled slowly.

"I really hadn't given much thought as to why I got here... I mean, I don't even know how I got here. I was out and about and wham, I was hit on the head and woke up here... I guess it could be some sort of coma dream or something, but it seems like too many people are aware of what's going on here to really believe that."

"Tell me something, do you have family? Did they end up here as well?"

What happened if her parents showed up. If there was any chance of that... it was too late to lead a normal life, but to have actual real flesh and blood parents...

	Dean quirked an eyebrow at her. He had been thinking about why he was here since he got here. Trying to find answered and how to get out. But then she asked the question and Dean nodded, "Just my brother. But he got here later," Dean didn't talk much about family so much. Just safe stuff. "I find this city is full of surprises, some not so pleasant." (Reply to this) (Parent)
