REUNION
you don't choose your family. they are a gift to you

"OH, my god."

Octavia ran and jumped into Dean's awaiting arms. Her lips started to tremble but she wouldn't let any tears out. There was people she didn't know standing around them right now, and she wasn't about to show them any weaknesses.

"You're here. You're alive." She turned het head to Sam and pulled him into a hug, burying my face into his chest. "You're alive," she repeated and I felt Dean's and Sam's body shake a little. She pulled back and smiled up at them.

"Octavia, I can't believe that you're here and alive."

The only girl in the family chuckled and brought them into another hug.

"Sam, Dean, you're alive," Cas' voice came from behind them which made the three of them pull apart.

"Cas." Dean pulled Cas into a hug, leaving Octavia with Sam. They both smiled as Dean and Cas hugged as we knew that they were really close. "Where were you?"

"The Governor held me captive and then Octavia's group came and I helped save Octavia." Cas left out a bunch of stuff, but Octavia understood why because Sam and Dean are always over protective.

"Save Octavia? What do you mean that you saved Octavia?" Dean and Sam asked in sync and then looked at Octavia. What happened?"

"Got kidnapped and got beat up. Nothing new." She rolled her eyes and was shouted to say something when she froze upon seeing a smaller body jump out of the Impala.

It was a girl with strawberry blonde hair which was pulled into a pony tail, green eyes, and a tired expression on her face.

"Sophia?" She whispered quietly before the girl in question turned to her with wide eyes.

"Octavia?!" Sophia ran towards Octavia and hugged her waist tightly. She was taller now, her hair was grown out, and she had a scar across her right eyebrow. "I didn't think we'd ever find you!"

Octavia slowly wrapped her arms around the girl and looked over her shoulder at Carol who was staring in shock at her daughter. "You should go see your mother..." The youngest Winchester stated before ushering the small girl towards her mother who then started crying in happiness and disbelief.

"We saved Sophia from a couple of geeks," Sam spoke up as the group approached them. "She was hurt, tired, and hungry. We took her in and she told us about her group — you guys. Once we heard our sisters name, we tried to find you, but all we found was a barn that was on fire with hundreds of walkers surrounding it."

"A lot has happened since," Octavia stated before ushering Jessica towards them.

Once Sam saw his dead girlfriends face, his face twisted into complete despair. He couldn't believe it. She was alive! "Jessica?" His voice was meek. "How are—"

"We'll explain," Octavia said before smiling between her brothers and the group. "As you guys probably already know, these are my brothers — Dean and Sam."

"It's good to meet you. Octavia had told us so much about you," Hershel spoke up and shook their hands, balancing on one foot.

"What happened to your leg?" Dean asked him, his eyes narrowed. Octavia knew that look, he was analyzing them.

"Got bit," Hershel responded with a shrug.

"Guys." They all turned to Octavia who pointed to Daryl who was leaning by his bike. "I'm gonna go check up on Daryl." They nodded but, Sam and Dean stepped towards her. "Nope, you two stay here and talk." She pushed them towards Rick. "Bye!" She saluted and then walked towards Daryl who looked up at her when he heard her footsteps.

"Octavia?" He asked and then stood up straighter.

"Hey, are you okay?" He nodded and looked towards the ground. "No you're not." She sighed and made him face her. "I know how it feels to lose someone you love." She looked him in the eyes, so that he knew that she was telling the truth.

"You don't." He shook his head and then pushed her hands away from him. He scoffed and looked away from her.

"Daryl." He ignored her. "Daryl." He still ignored her. "Hey." She roughly grabbed his face and made him look at her. "I do know how it feels to lose someone. That crushing feeling that you feel on your chest when you realize that you won't ever get to see them again. I have lost people. Before and now. I had lost my mother when I was just a baby. My dad a few years before the apocalypse. The father figure that was there more than my actual father. A girl I considered a friend, and many more. If I could, I would make a list, but it'll be too long," she explained to him, her eyes getting watery just thinking about the people she has lost. "My brothers are the only family I had before I met you guys. And I just got my brothers back - the ones who I thought was dead — so please don't ruin this day for me."

"I-I'm sorry," He responded in a gruff voice.

She took in a breath and said, "If you ever need someone to talk to, come to me. I might not know everything that you have been through, but I would like to know. That doesn't mean you have to tell me, but I would like to get to know you better."

He nodded and said, "We should probably go inside."

Octavia nodded her head in agreement and then turned to his motorcycle.

"I'll see you later, baby." She purred and pet the handle which made Daryl shake his head and chuckle at her. "Awe, are you jealous?" He rolled his eyes and picked up his crossbow. "You are, aren't you?" He started to walk away from her. "You'll admit it sooner or later!" She shouted after him which resulted in him raising his fist in the air.

"Excuse me," A woman's voice spoke up as she moved passed Octavia who stopped as she recognized the voice.

Octavia turned around and grabbed the woman's arm, stopping her from walking away. "Melissa?" She asked, tilting her head.

"I'm sorry, you got the wrong person," she told Octavia who knew it had to be a lie because she looked exactly like Melissa McCall. "I'm Karen."

Octavia furrowed her eyebrows as she realized that this person might be a supernatural. "What are you?" She asked gruffly as she stared into her eyes.

"Excuse me?" She asked, getting scared and nervous.

"What. Are. You?" Octavia asked, gripping her arm tighter with each word. "If you aren't Melissa, then you are a supernatural. So, I ask again, what are you? A ghoul? Shapeshifter?" She pulled her away from everyone and behind the bus, and pushed her up against the bus, a dagger against her throat. "If you don't tell me right now, I will slit your fucking throat," she threatened.

"I-I'm, I-I'm a sh-shapeshifter. The good kind. I haven't hurt anyone or anything. I'm sorry that I used the face of your friend, but I can't change because I met someone and made a life."

Octavia pushed the dagger more into her throat before letting go. "Prove yourself worthy or you die. If you harm one hair on anybody's head, I will gut you."

"Thank you."

Octavia pushed her up against the bus again, her eyes ablazing. "You've just been warned by a Winchester, Karen," she spit her name out and then walked away, putting away my dagger before anyone could see. "Ugh. Can't I just get a break for one day?" She asked herself, rolling her eyes, and huffing.

"Sorry sis, no can do." Both of her brothers were by her side and wrapped their arms around her shoulders.

"I'm glad that you guys are here."

"The Winchester Musketeer's are back in order!"

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Okay, for those who might be confused with Karen being a shapeshifter. I just wanted to tell you that since i'm having Teen Wolf in this book, the same girl who plays Melissa on there, also plays Karen on here. I totally forgot about Karen until like a couple episodes ago.

Anywho, i'm starting the fourth season and i'm so excited since more drama is going to be happening!
