The Halfling

by Rogue-of-Blood-666

Sam and Dean are tracing a string of serial murders in Montana. They trace the source to a strange girl who is running from something from her past. When things turn out in an unexpected twist, will Sam and Dean be able to save her from the demons, or will she become the final victim? Rated T for gore, language, and other stuff. First story, reviews are welcome.

1. So get this

Sam and Dean Winchester were on the road again. They had been on the road for several days and Sam could only take so much of his brother's classic rock cassettes and constant steering wheel drum solos. He had convinced Dean to stop at a motel for a couple nights and was currently on his laptop looking for any leads for a hunt. He came across a news article that had been posted two days ago, and a quick skim granted all of the information he needed.

"Hey Dean," Sam said as he sat up from his rested position on the crappy motel bed. Dean looked up from the table where the assortment of large knives he had been sharpening now rested. He replied, "What is it, Sammy? Got any leads?"

Sam looked back at the article and read aloud, "'In 2013, several mysterious disappearances occurred in Butte, Montana. The victims were found several days after they went missing, all of them appearing as if they had been mutilated by some well-sized animal.'"

Dean went back to sharpening the knife he was holding, "And? Could just be a pack of wild dogs. Maybe a bear. Butte's near some large forest, right?"

"Yeah, but all of the victims were blonde girls between fifteen and seventeen years old. And after the first disappearance, the killings keep going north along this highway. It almost looks like whatever is causing these murders is chasing a particular person." Sam looked at the pictures of the victims, each of the girls smiling out from the screen with bright eyes.

Dean came over and looked at the images and the roadmap Sam had pulled up. "So what do you think? Some kind of angry spirit following a chick who matches the description? Picky werewolf? Whatever it is, it sure knows how to pick its targets." Sam rolled his eyes and shut the computer.

"Only one way to find out. If my guess is right, the next killing is going to be in Anaconda, Montana. Our best hope is to get there as soon as possible and find out what's doing this before the next murder happens." Sam packed up his things and helped his brother load up the car. Another job in the family business.
