"I know
I'm not who you're looking for," Aelwyn conceded, face set in a stubborn
scowl, "but if you're looking for them I'll thank you to tell me what exactly it is you want from them. Because not to alarm you, but my friend behind me here doesn't have a twin and either he or those are shapeshifters." She nodded toward the 'other' Sam and Dean.
Her attention hadn't been attracted by the woman's abrupt movement but she noticed how the taller man stepped back to shield her with his own body and grab her hand. Aelwyn's steely eyes flicked critically over the redhead, a bit of anger lingering in her heart.
Child. That was her first thought. Aelwyn herself was no more than twenty-two, but from what she'd seen in the mirror she appeared more care-worn. Although this girl was quite a bit taller than Aelwyn, she could possibly have been her age--though she doubted it--and though she looked like she'd seen the dangers the world had to offer she still had that doe-eyed, innocent appearance. That would be beneficial to her in the long run, but right now it did little to earn the huntress's respect.
Then Dean pulled a gun. Aelwyn sighed. The other Dean pulled a gun. She rubbed her face before pinching the bridge of her nose in frustration. "Yes, Dean..s. Pull out loaded guns in a crowded bar, don't bother with subtlety. This is the best thing to do," she muttered, mostly to herself. When she lifted her head her scowl had deepened and she made sure to place herself between at least one of the brothers and everyone else, a point of calm in the chaos that had erupted around them. Aelwyn slid her knife out of her sleeve, unaware that it was in much the same way an angel might reveal its dagger, and held it up for them all to see.
"We all cut ourselves," she suggested, clearly showing her palm as she drew the blade across it before holding it up. "If no one reacts, then we figure out what's going on. Any of you
run, and that will be proof enough. I
will kill you. Everyone understand?" She glanced at the Winchester doppelgangers, then at the Dean she had arrived with before turning her gaze to the two newcomers.
