A/N; Hello all, this is my first attempt at writing anything that is related to the show Supernatural, and I know that the following for the show and fanfic is huge, and as passionate about it as I am so I am excited about doing this. I have been a huge fan and have been following the show since it started and have had many ideas about a Fic but this is the first one to really jump out at me.
Now...As you can see this is a cross over of sorts with the show Haven, another great show by the way, which is also a first for me. I've never even read a cross over fic before, but like I said, this idea just jumped out at me, so I hope you enjoy.
This story starts out during the first season of supernatural but before Haven started.
Demon hunters;
It's not a profession that any guidance counselor from any school will tell a student that they will end up with as a future career. Most don't even know it even exists or is needed as they go on with their lives, completely oblivious to the dangers around them. Those that are in this life of hunting ghosts and demons have had some sort of tragedy happen to them that has pulled them into this life of a hunter. The Winchester family is no different and the three men have been fighting monsters that are thought to be myths by most, since Mary Winchester was murdered in 1983. She was the wife of John and mother of Dean and Sam, and the reason why the boys have been driving across the country searching for supernatural events in hope that they find what killed Mary. The jobs they do are endless and most involve fighting creatures that would cause any normal person to think twice about their sanity after seeing them, but not the Winchesters. It's a thankless job that brings them on impossible missions where the brothers find themselves in small towns that are barely a blip on the map. They help the people that are being affected by the evil around them, then leave to go onto the next job, and this last case is no different.
It had been a long trip that had brought them to the small college town in New York after a married couple had mysteriously been murdered, but it had been worth it. The brothers had to deal with a ghost of a troubled little girl that had been killing people over the course of century. Sam and Dean had investigated and found out that this little girl had lived nearly a hundred years ago, and apparently had murdered her parents. She was then adopted by another family, and she killed them as as well. The father of her new family was initially blamed and the picture they were all portrayed in became haunted by them both due to the grizzly nature of their murders. The picture went from house to house with deaths happening each time it was hung on the new owners wall. In the end the Winchester brothers were successful, by stopping the ghost, and in the process Sam had befriended a woman who was the daughter of the owner of the art gallery where the murderous painting had been sold.
Her name is Sarah Blake, and Dean smiles as the memory of his brother kissing her replays. She was hot and at first Dean couldn't understand what she saw in the dork who is his brother. Normally Dean is the one who gets all the attention, but she apparently had vision problems. None of that mattered in the end since Sarah was able to convince the younger Winchester to realize that he should not keep people at bay just because they may get hurt. That his self imposed guilt over Jessica's death wasn't neccesary and he needed to move on. It had been hard on Sam after his girlfriends death and it is the reason why Sam is now back on the road with his brother fighting these monsters all while trying to find their father. Sam is hopeful that after finding John that he will be able to help shed some light on Jessica's death, since it also triggered him to begin having visions of her passing which has now lead to many sleepless nights.
Sleep is a rarity in their career field, yet you have to be alert or get killed. Since they left New York and began their trip out west Sam seems to be resting better like he is now, but it's only been a day, and only in the car. They are currently headed towards coordinates sent to them by their father and it is at least a two day trip. They have some time to get there, so the elder brother decides to drive the entire way and let Sam get some much needed rest. He'd never admit it, but Dean has been worried about his younger sibling for a while now. Not only is he having visions of his college girlfriend dying, but he has dreamt of people being attacked before it happens, to include a woman and her children that live in their old house, the house that started it all.
That trip back to Lawrence, Kansas has been the hardest yet, and it brought back memories for Dean that he thought he buried long ago. After visiting his childhood home, solving that case, and leaving just as fast, Dean had hoped that it wouldn't bother him, especially since he was too mad at his father since he never showed up. He was wrong though, as being back in his families home caused the visions of that night to overtake every thought of every waking moment. He's always been able to keep his dark thoughts at bay, and normally doing other jobs have always helped him forget about his past. It's the down time when his mind begins to wander back to that day. It's times like this, driving down long roads with nothing to see, that are the worst. Times like this where he'd begin to think of his mother, and wish she was still here and they were a family again. That him and Sam would have a normal life like everyone else and be happy being oblivious about the demons he hunts. He'd always push those thoughts away by playing his favorite song "Ramble On" by Led Zepplin, and right now is no different. Pushing the tape into the receiver brings a smile to his face in anticipation of being able to listen to the best rock group to have ever existed, and not listen to anyone complain about his music choice.
'Driver picks the music, shot gun shuts his cake hole.'
He laughs a little as he thinks about the day he told that to his brother. It's his car and he'll listen to whatever music he wants even though he is happy that his brother is along for the ride. As the cassette clicks into place, Dean's smile grows that much more in anticipation until he nearly losses control of the car after Sam wakes from his slumber screaming something about having to turn around.
"Dammit Sammy, you scared the crap out of me." Dean's voice is a few octives higher after the jolt of adrenaline that went through his body, but he's able to compose himself.
"I almost crashed the damm car!" Dean yells as his heart rate slows back to normal a pace.
This isn't the first time Sam has done this while Dean's driving and in deep thought which nearly causes them to crash. Dean knows that its not necessarily Sam's fault but if this happens again then Sam will see how well he's able to tuck and roll out of a speeding car. Right now though, the look on his younger brothers face tells Dean that Sam saw something in his sleep, and it's worth looking into.

"So let me get this straight, Sam. You want to stop what we are doing, which is hopefully getting us closer to finding dad, turn around..." Dean says in a mocking tone, which in turn causes Sam to look back at him in annoyance. He chuckles a little at the expression on Sam's face, rolls his eyes, and takes a swig from his beer. He is momentarily distracted by the bartender who is pouring a drink but is staring back at Dean with a smile. He has been hitting on the green eyed blonde the entire night and he begins to think about later-on and what may happen if he plays his cards right. Maybe coming here wasn't such a bad idea?
Hearing Sam clear his throat brings him back to the conversation.
"Sorry...what was I saying?" His voice is laced with sarcasm. " Oh yeah, we were discussing how much of an idiot you are...So to recap...You want to stop, turn around and do what again?" Dean puts his finger next to his temple and pretends to think about the last few moments, then snaps his fingers and points to his brother.
"That's right you want to go to a town that you can't find on a map, and no one has ever heard of before? Did I leave anything out?." He looks at his brother with wide eyes, waiting for an answer. When Sam makes a face and turns his attention back to his research, Dean's lips curl up and he knows he's annoyed his younger sibling, again.
Placing the half empty bottle down on the table in front of his brother, Dean shakes his head a little and gives him an annoyed look. He turns around and continues to take the money of the local kids who have been walking in and out of the and all night, and apparently get a hefty allowance. He's beaten each twenty something yuppy that has come into this bar at each game they have played and he is definitly on a hot streak. Everything from darts to pool he's won, and he's even been challenged to sing some R.E.O speed wagon karaoke by some drunk ass-clown, which he turned down immediatly. Other than the winnings, the possible trist with the bartender and possibly every other hot girl in here...which the more Dean looks around the more he realizes they are all hot...this detour has been a colossal waist of time.
Sam explained what his visions showed him and his interest was initially piqued. A town filled with supernatural happenings that affected some of the people that lived there, and it is supposedly in Maine. Initially he thought it may be something worth investigating, but it's turning out to not be the case. Apparently Sams visions showed that some of the towns residents had certain abilities that they would normally look into. Once Sam began his research and found that there wasn't any evidence to suggest that his vision was true, mainly due to the fact that the town didn't exist, is when Dean ignored everything else, started to drink, while Sams words began to all sound the same.
"Blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah."
"I don't sound like that."
"Right now you do." Dean says as he sets up to take a shot. "We basically are going back the way we came and for what?"
It's been bothering Dean to no end since he found out that little fact, and he's been trying to figure out why Sam would want to go back the way they just came?
Why would his brother make up some lame excuse so they could turn around and end up in a bar on the border of PA and NY and basically go back the way they came...
"Son of a bitch." As soon as Dean takes his shot and wins his fifth straight game of nine-ball on the break, he moves to get in his brother face.
"Dammit Sam, if you wanted some ass all you had to do is say so!" He yells loud enough to get everyone's attention. "I'm sure there is someone in this bar that you can go back to the room with and tell them all about your problems." Deans last words are said in a mocking tone which gains more laughs from the inebriated crowd as well as some woman raising their hands to take Dean up on the offer. Sam is now completely embarrassd and furious as he gathers up his computer and other research to head out to the car.
"Aw common, don't be like that Sammy." Dean yells towards his brother who abruptly turns around. He's about to say something when Dean opens his arms and conitues to push Sams buttons.
"We always fight, let's not fight. Come here and hug it out."
Turning around, the younger Winchester grunts in frustration and pushes the door open and walks out into the cool night air.
"Kiss and make up? No?" Dean says as the door closes behind his annoyed brother. "Oh well, your loss."
Now at the car, Sam opens the door and throws his bag into the back seat, and slams his fist into the roof of the Impala. Just like any sibling, Dean has been able to get under Sam's skin since the younger Winchester can remember. It is bad enough that Sam and John rarely got along and the brothers normally stuck together but right now Dean is being a jerk. He understands why Dean is agrivated with him since he hasn't been able to find any evidence that the town even exists but he hasn't been wrong yet and there is a reason he had a vision about going there.
Sam gets into the car they have called home for the past few months and continues to read his fathers journal. He's been trying to make sense of his visions, and what the notes his father has written mean.
'It's a place...lost but not forgotten.'
It's one of the first entries his father made right around the time their mother died but Sam has no idea what it means.
'It's a place where you once belonged.'
His father has never written anything like this in any other part of his journal and Sam is starting to think it is some kind of a code but he's not sure.
'It's a place where you go to forget.'
None of this makes sense and if Dean wasn't being such an ass he'd love some help on this. Hearing the familiar sound of the door to the car opening and Dean falling into the driver seat with a thump, Sam roles his eyes, and clenches his jaw, knowing their conversation is going to continue.
"You done being a jerk?"
"You done being a bitch?" Only receiving a long sigh and silence as an answer, Dean shakes his head and decides to try a different tactic.
"Look, I understand your visions haven't been wrong before, but you said it yourself, there's no proof that the town exists. We are trying to find dad, so what makes you think we should waste our time trying to find this town?"
"Because if you would have listened to me I would have told you that acording to his journal, dad was there right after mom died. It's one of the first entries he made in his journal and apparently he was there more than once."
He's not sure why, but Dean is beginning to believe his brother especially after reading some of his fathers journal entries. This place is obviously important to John, but Dean can't figure out why he has never heard of this place considering it seems to be important.
"Then there is this." Sam turns to a page at the very end of his fathers book to show his brother an entry that has them both confused.
'No matter what...Need to go back in 2010...Need to forget again.'
"Why would dad have to remind himself to return to this place four years from now?"
"I don't know. That's why we need to go there and check it out." Sam states the obvious.
"Yeah yeah." Dean dismisses him and starts the car. He smiles after the engine comes to life and turns to Sam to ask him one more thing.
"What's the name of this town anyway?"
"Haven. And I just found coordinates to get there."
