Must mean a lot to you.

He's my big brother. He means everything to me.

You're lucky then. My family is nothing like that. I haven't even seen them in eight years.

My brother only has a year to live. I was dead and he made a deal just to get me back. I'm doing everything I can to save him. I'm not sure it's really enough though.

I'm so sorry. I died a couple times, but my gift saved me. I don't suppose he can absorb powers, cos I know a couple people with healing factors.

No, he can't. He's just an ordinary guy.

Been a while since I've known a "normal" guy. Is it... a physical death? Doctors can't help?

The stupid bitch is going to take him once the year is up. And he can't try and find a way out of it or anything. If he tries to then I drop dead right on the spot.

Jesus. I'd offer to help, but I wouldn't really know what to do. I'm only handy against other mutants.

She does sound like a right bitch.

She's a demon. So, yeah, she's a bitch alright.

I don't even know if my skin works on demons. I could try and drain her dry, but then I might wind up with demon in me permanently...

Or it might not work at all.

I wouldn't wish a demon in someone at all. *shivers* I've had a demon inside of me. She nearly killed my brother.

'She'? Same demon, different demon?

Different demon. A chick named Meg.

Is it just the demon chicks that have it in for you and your brother? You do somethin' to piss 'em off? Like... pull their hair?

No, it isn't just the chicks. I'm... special. So it caught the Yellow Eyed demon's attention. A bit too much of his attention since he took my mom from me when I was six months old.

Oh, I'm sorry. That's gotta be tough. At least I chose to leave my parents behind.

So... special? Not a mutant, right?

No, not a mutant. I don't really consider it being special either. I've got this whole telekinetic thing going on and visions.

You sound like me. I don't ever think my gift is a gift. Most times I hate it. Could have been cured of it, but in the end it's still a part of me, isn't?

'Sides, I'd have no idea how to just be Marie again.

So you can control the tk and visions? Or you have no control?

Oh, and if I'm asking too many questions - just tell me to shut up. I guess I get a little too curious sometimes. Or you can ask me questions. Even things up a bit.

The tk I'm learning to control. The visions on the other hand... I can't control them at all. They're... of a person's death. And they hurt like hell.

Don't worry about it. I don't mind the questions.

Well I guess control over the tk is good. Don't need to be randomly throwing stuff around. Or like, bringing it to you.

And those visions sound depressing. But... I take it they give you a chance to do something about the deaths? Or maybe your power has a sick sense of humor like mine.

Control would be so good. Oh, and I'm Rogue by the way.

Usually when I get them me and my brother run off to save the people. We've been hunters most of our lives. And, yeah, they are depressing.

Pleasure to meet you, Rogue. I'm Sam.

Nice to meet you too, Sam. It's kinda cool finding out someone can have powers without an X-gene. Well, not for you given you ain't having a lot of luck with them.

Hunters? So you hunt demons? Wow. That's pretty cool. I think? I mean, it'd probably have a lot of life and death situations... well, like the one you're in now.

I really can't say anything right in this conversation can I? I'm sorry.

Hey, don't be. Let's see... we've been doing this since my brother was four. Dad was big on revenge. I tried normal for a bit but... it didn't quite take. And in the end he took my girl too the same way he took my mom.

And, yeah, ghosts... demons... the whole nine yards. I've nearly lost Dean more times than I can count.

Wow. You guys must be either really brave or completely stupid!

At least you know what you're doing. Have a calling, or whatever. A purpose. Although, maybe not if you're dad was the one that started it. Guess it's more of a family business.

So there's really all that supernatural stuff out there? I mean, given what I am it's not such a stretch of the imagination, but just makes you wonder. ~~Baselines~~ Humans think they're the only species... Guess they're not.
