Big thanks to griffin-girl02 for being an awesome beta for this story!

I do not own Supernatural, but it would make a GREAT Christmas present! Hint hint!

Onto the story…

Dean was surprised. They had been hired for a paying job that actually went well. The superintendent of Fall Creek Falls State Park had asked them to investigate some strange happenings in the visitor's center. They were given a room and free access to the buffet which made Dean a very happy guy. Sam was also pleased the park was beautiful and Dean had promised that they would take a few days to explore it.

Getting rid of the Nature Center's ghost was a walk in the park. They had a display where people could touch fur, scales, horns, and animal bones. Mixed in with the animal bones were some human ones, and this human apparently didn't like people touching its remains. So after a quick scan with the EMF they found the bones and salted and burned them.

The next day, Sam woke Dean bright and early to go exploring. He had a list of the 'important' things to see, but there were only two that really mattered: Fall Creek Falls and Piney Falls. If he could see those two without Dean having a conniption fit he could leave happy. Little did he know that would be their down fall, literally.

It was cold and wet, but that didn't deter Sam. He was bound and determined to get his sight-seeing in.

"Sammy," Dean whined. "Dude it's raining outside. We'll catch the swine flu and die a miserable snot filled death."

Sam huffed, Dean had promised to try not to be so overbearing and listen to him every once in a while.

"You know you don't catch viruses from being in the cold, it's an old wives' tale. You get it from contact with others who have it. So unless one of us has the swine flu I think we are safe. So suck it up, and take a poncho or something."

"Whatever. They get water all over the place, so no! If anything we will use the raincoats, and they will be removed upon getting into the Impala."

"If we're wearing the raincoats then you're digging them out of the trunk. The last time I remember seeing them was when we fought that slime creature."

Dean looked thoughtful, and then brightened up. "I remember where I put them."

A few minutes later Dean came in holding two lumps of waterproof cloth. Upon shaking them out. Dean remembered why they hadn't been used in forever. They were too small, way too small.

"I forgot Dad got us these in high school. Oh well, guess we can't go. Don't want that perfect hair of yours to get messed up!" Dean said as he plopped down on the bed and picked up the channel changer.

Sam snatched the device out of this brother's hand, "They'll have some for sale down in the gift shop."

Dean sighed, getting to his feet. What he would do to keep his little brother happy. At the gift shop, Dean found a nice black rain jacket while Sam had a choice between Pepto Bismal pink and fuchsia. He reluctantly chose pink and threateningly told Dean, "Not a WORD!"

Dean struggled not to laugh and tried to remember where he had put his digital camera last. Sam's friends on the internet needed to see this!

So they started off back to the Nature Center where the Kane River falls and Cascades were. Dean loved the suspension bridge. He kept busy taking pictures of his pink clad brother hanging onto the sides of the bridge for dear life.

Getting annoyed, Sam finally snapped, "I'm hiking over to Fall Creek Falls from here. Why don't you drive over there, and we can meet back at the observation platform."

Dean grinned, and shrugged, "Sure, no problem." He then tuned on his heel and started the hike back. 'Perfect,' he thought, flirt a little with the foreign chick at the Nature Center while he 'asked directions' to the next falls, then some alone time with his baby.

They eventually met up at the falls. Both agreed that it was pretty, and Dean even snapped a few pictures. When Sam got in the car Dean threw a paper bag in his lap. At Sam's questioning look Dean answered.

"Lunch."

"So while I was waiting out there you were off stuffing your face?" Sam was starting to get pissed.

"Dude, chill. I was getting hungry, and I figured you would be too, especially after that hike. I got you some G2 and a couple sandwiches and chips."
Sam felt bad, "Sorry."

Dean rolled his eyes, "You better be. This trust thing goes two ways ya know."

Digging into his sandwich Sam mumbled, 'Thanks Dean."

"See was that so hard? Where to next?"

Taking a drink Sam replied, "If we go strait we can do the driving trail then go to Piney falls." Taking note of the face Dean made at the mention of another falls Sam added, "They have a suspension bridge there too."

That made Dean brighten up considerably. Driving through the trail, though, Dean started to get bored, and Sam wanted to stop at every over look. Dean got fed up and allowed Sam to pick two.

The first over look was even more boring than researching, but the second one they both kind of liked. Dean found it hilarious that it was named after a man who died by falling off. When they finally stopped at the Piney Falls Sam was ready to head to the falls, but Dean, of course, wanted to go strait to the suspension bridge.

"Rock, paper, scissors, and winner chooses," Sam offered.

Agreeing Dean got ready.

Dean played rock as usual and Sam played paper.

"Two out of three?" Dean pleaded.

"If we kept playing till you won we'd be here forever!"

Sighing Dean joined his brother as he headed toward the path. A family was emerging from the trail.

"It's slippery so be careful, "offered the mom. The older daughter rolled her eyes as if to say 'duh mom.' The younger daughter added, "But it's worth it. The view is awesome. I'm face-booking my pics as soon as I get service!"

Sam grinned at her enthusiasm, and the two groups moved past each other. Sam and Dean picked their way down the wet and rocky path, stepping from one rock to another. Dean decided to stop and take a look around.

He shouted to Sam, "I'll catch up to you in a minute."

"Okay, see you in a sec," came from the distracted brother.

Dean stood a bit off the path on a rock outcropping. The view was breath taking, even he had to admit. Wanting to see how high up he was, Dean leaned over the side and took a step forward.

His foot slid on the wet leaves and his hands scrambled at the tree beside him to keep from going over, but to no avail, he was airborne for a few seconds before the impact with the rock below. Pain shot up his right side and through his head as it bounced off the rock. He tried to keep conscious and call for his brother, but as son as he breathed in, icy hot fire flashed through his body and consciousness flickered out like a candle.
