Greater Powerups

The girl chuckled when she heard that then she turned to John. Her attitude changed from playfulness to amusement.

"If only you know the plans we have for your boys, John Winchester, you would spent every second of your pathetic life making sure they are safe," she said. John faltered when he heard that and when his guard was down, she tried to ram into him but Rick ran into her first, throwing her away like a sack of potatoes, sprawling ten metres away. John was stunned to see this. Demons were very strong, even when possessing a human so this was the first time he ever saw a human sending one flying away with just physical strength.

"Bind her before she gets out of this body!" John shouted at him as he took out a flask from the glove compartment and went ran over to the girl who was groaning in pain before he proceeded to pour the contents on her. Rick heard a sizzling sound as he came over with a rope and saw smoke coming out of her.

"Holy water, its like acid to them," John said then proceeded to soak the ropes with holy water then tied her up as Rick restrained her. "You seem to be physically fit, why don't you carry her to the car." Rick nodded and carried her with one hand as she struggled amidst been burnt by the ropes restraining her. He threw her into the back of the car then got in shotgun after John.

"You weren't kidding when you said you were quite strong," John said as he ignited the car and started driving.

"My family are Scandinavian, they say we have the blood of gods in our veins that's why we are so powerful. My brother is quite a trickster too, I sometimes confuse him with Loki," Rick answered. The girl behind scoffed at that.

"Those pagan God's would rather kill themselves than have humans bear them children," she spat out.

"Yet Zeus was quite the Cassanova with human women. So, what's a good looking demon like you doing in a town like this?" Rick asked her. The girl scoffed when she heard the question.

"Doing what demons do, spreading mayhem and chaos and enjoying it," she answered. Rick looked at her with a frown then turned to John.

"Do you have a way to kill a demon?" he asked him.

"No, we just exorcise them,"

"That's just sending them to hell. They might come back like they did before. Does it mention anywhere of a way to kill them? A sword, dagger, axe or even a gun?" Rick asked. The demon flinched when she heard that and Rick saw it. "You do know of such weapons. Will you be a good girl and tell us where they are?"

"You are asking me to tell you a way to kill me for good? Are you stupid?" she mocked him. Rick turned to John.

"Of we torture her, will the person inside her feel any pain?"

"I suppose not but if we exorcise it they will feel the brunt of it that's why we avoid such actions," John answered. The girl started laughing.

"That's why we will always win. You hunters are driven by your moral compass," she laughed. Rick put on a thinking pose.

"Say, if we captured a monster, made the demon possess it then we can torture her all we want, right?" Rick asked John. John's eyes twinkled suddenly as the demon felt a premonition coming. "Monsters are bad things anyway so that would make us come out with a clean conscious." The demon felt like cursing at Rick for having such twisted thoughts.

"Rick, we are humans, not monsters. There are lines we do not cross no matter how much we are pushed," John told him.

"Right, right," Rick said then he looked back at the road. The demon was glad John was not like other hunters. "What if we exorcise it and put it inside a box then throw the box inside the Atlantic? Surely, even demons would be tortures with boredom. Besides, with how the ocean is these days, the box will be buried in sand in two years, never to be recovered again." The girl really felt like biting Rick to death now that she started making gnarling sounds. John looked at it via the rear view mirror, smiled then turned the car around.

"Where are you going?" she asked him with a fear filled voice.

"There's a gift shop in town, I'm sure they'll have a nice box that I can shove you in. I also just happen to have a locking rune and enough Holy water to drown you in that little box for centuries to come," John answered. The demon shrieked and gnarled, cursing at them, trying to rule them up until Rick punched her out cold.

"If she wasn't a demon, she would have been my type," Rick said as he buckled up again. John chuckled at that. "Do hunts usually end this quick?"

"Some monsters prefer to hide from us, others prefer to hunt us instead. Take your pick on this hunt," John told him.

"But, why would a demon rip hearts out? Why not just kill them by ripping them apart?" Rick asked in a puzzled voice.

"I'm surprised too. But, I'm sure she'll talk about it when she wakes up," John said. "Good to see you're studying, though." Rick just nodded and the rest of the drive was spent in silence. They reached the gift shop and John went to get the box. Rick was looking outside when he felt something slip into his pant's pockets so he dag inside and felt two vial like objects and a piece of paper. He took the paper out and started reading it.

'Hello kid, these are the extras you wanted. I have to say, you are very selfish, making wishes to get the most powerful things...Not my problem, I'm just fate. Anyway, I would suggest you take the genes first before you drink the other thing.' Rick smiled brighter as he removed the two vials from his pocket. One was bright yellow while the other was bright red. There was a label on the two.

"Golden Sentry Serum and MR Immortal's Gene's, what are those?" the demon asked him.

"Things that will help me survive," Rick answered then uncorked the genes vial and drank it in a single gulp. Rick waited for the pain but all he felt was a strange wave all over his body. The demon was as confused as he was.

"Did it work?" she asked him. Rick clenched his fist as he took a knife and proceeded to slit his wrist. The wound was healing instantaneously!

"Yes it did," Rick answered it. "Took it long enough. Guess this is what he meant when I go for my first road trip, tricky bastard. I'm gonna save this one for later."

"That thing gave you that kind of healing ability? Do you know how much you will be worth when I tell other demons about you?" she asked him. Rick turned to look at her.

"Good thing we're just exorcising you then. I will be the one to throw away your box, only, there won't be much throwing away," Rick told her, making the demon recoil back.

"You...You can't kill me," she stuttered.

"There are many ways to kill you. A certain colt, Cain's dagger, angel's blade, arch-angel's blade, Arch-angels, Angels, a weapon touched by God's hand, the seven horsemen and many more. Personally, I would prefer just praying to an angel to smite you and I will be done," Rick told her. The demon was now more afraid of him than ever. She was sure very few humans knew of all these and he wasn't one of them.

"Who are you?" she asked him.

"To the humans, I'm just another hunter doing his job but to you and anyone else I might tell in the future, I guess you can call me the god of thunder," Rick answered her then, a thunderclap was heard as winds picked up, lightning flashed and it started raining cats and dogs.

"N...No way, no god is this powerful in this current age," she denied yet she was trying to stay far away from him as she could.

"True, but my powers don't come from this universe or any of its mirror universe and I don't power up the same as these gods do. Oh, here comes John. I'll just make sure you don't blabber everything to him." A rune appeared under her tongue then John came in.

"Was she well behaved?" he asked as he revved the engine.

"A bit chatter but nothing otherwise. We might need to hurry though, the effect of Holy Water is wearing off on the ropes," Rick answered. John nodded and drove off to an abandoned building. The Demoness tried to talk a few times but the rune under her tongue would flash and she found herself powerless, she couldn't even lift her head! When they came to the building, John gave him a book and told him to etch the runes on the page he opened in the box then showed his a devil's trap that he would draw later and have the demon box and the demon put inside.

Rick did his best and by that, he really did do his best. The runes he made were very exquisite that even John admired them when he saw it. He then drew the devil's trap and put the box and the demones inside. John started incanting the exorcism as he circled the girl. At first, she was glaring at them, Rick particularly, then she started convulsing as he body rolled around, been stopped from getting out of the devil's trap by invisible, circular wall. When John finally finished, a black smoke flew out of the girl's mouth for half a minute before the box glowed and the box was drawn into it till nothing was left. The girl was unconscious while being tied so Rick went to help her. When he had her feet untied, he heard a groan from behind then a thud so he turned around and saw a man with glowing eyes grinning at him.

"I've been following you for a while now," the man said then turned to look at the box. "I'm gonna ask you to release her and make her possess that girl, right now!"

"I don't know what you are but I am not letting a demon out and possess an innocent girl," Rick answered him. The man growled in anger as claws slid out from his fingers and he placed them in John's throat.

"If you don't do it I will kill him," he warned. Rick frowned when he saw that. "I made a deal with it that it would be my wife for ten years, I even got it a beautiful girl to possess. I am not about to lose my soul without experiencing the best ten years of my life so, bring her back." There was a thunderclap when he finished his sentence as rain started falling on the roof of the house.

"Okay, fine," Rick said as he slowly went for the box. Out of anxiety, the man followed with baby steps and when he was two metres away from John, Rick's eyes suddenly flashed of lightning and then, thunder clapped followed by a stream of lightning so strong it went through the roof and descended onto the man, reducing him to ashes in amidst roars! John was woken up by the roars and the sound the lightning made when it hit the ground. When his eyes became focused, he saw ashes scatter.

"What happened?" he asked.

"Apparently, she wasn't alone. A monster made a deal that it could be the demon's husband for ten years. I think the hearts we're offerings," Rick answered.

"What kind of monster was it?"

"Don't know. Lightning reduced it to ashes before I could identify it," Rick said and picked up the box. "Guess we're done here?"

"It appears so. We'll drop the girl in the sheriff's office," John said as he rubbed the back of his head. "Son of a bitch hit harder than I thought. I might need a scan."

"Tell you what, you take the girl to the police and go to the hospital while I take my truck and drive to the shores before tossing this thing away. I'll call you when I'm done." John had no problem with that and so, they were separated. Rick got to his truck and immediately took off. His truck was so fast and combined with the runes to help it be a stable as possible and his superhuman reflexes, he was going at two hundred and twenty miles and hour. An hour later, he was sure not even John would find him for now so he drove offroad for half an hour and stopped in the middle of nowhere. He took out the Golden Sentry Serum from his pocket, uncorked it and drank it all after getting out of his truck.

"Here goes," Rick said as he started feeling something in him changing.
