Well here's yet another one of my stupid little fics. Hope you like it.
Project eight
"Hey I think I got something here." Sam shouted to his brother who was in the shower.
Dean wrapped a towel around himself and walked out of the bathroom.
"Close by?"
"Yeah, about fifty miles from here."
Dean leaned down and looked at the computer screen.
"A college?"
"Yeah… Seems like three students went missing."
"College students go missing all the time Sam. What does that have to do with us?"
"Well apparently these three were taking a course with the same professor who also went missing. It says here that after the students went missing friends of the students claim to have heard them talking to them even though no one was in the room. Here's a quote from one of them 'I heard Corey talking to me like he was right next to me. I thought he was playing a joke and was hiding in my closet or had a tape recorder in the room but he didn't. I found out later that Corey and two of his friends had been missing all day.'" Sam looked up at Dean. "Could be just her imagination or…."
"Or it could be something right up our alley. Maybe he's dead and his spirit is locked in limbo and is trying to make contact with her…. Hopefully we can send him on his way." Dean gave a little smile. He was itching for another hunt and hanging out with college girls made it even more inviting.
"It also says the professor disappeared the same time the students did."
"Well I say we get some rest tonight and head down there first thing tomorrow."
The next morning
They drove for a little over an hour then pulled up at the small college located on the coast of Maryland. Colleges always had people coming on to their campuses and the brothers managed to fit right in. They immediately went to the campus center which appeared to be the hub of activity. They used the guise that Sam was looking to transfer to the college and wanted to check it out. Most of the students in the campus center were gathered around a large TV screen watching the local news. A hurricane was heading in their direction and the students were deciding whether to ride it out there at the college of go home. Dean immediately walked over to a group of pretty girls.
"Hi." He said giving them what he considered to be his most charming smile.
"Hi." They all turned and smiled back at him.
"My brother and I are on campus to try to get a feeling of what the college is like. He's thinking of transferring and we were wondering how you like it here. Would you recommend it?"
"It's a great little college but kind of boring." One of the girls said.
"Well at least it used to be boring before all the cops showed up." Another girl spoke up.
"Cops….why?"
"Sandy's boyfriend and three others went missing a few days ago."
"Missing? What happened?" Dean glanced at Sam, he couldn't believe they were lucky enough to have already had found the girl whose boyfriend had vanished.
"We don't know." Sandy looked up at them as her eyes filled up with tears. "They just disappeared."
"You know I think I read something about that." Sam said stepping forward. "They were all taking the same class I think. What do they think happened?"
"Well the cops are leaning toward the theory that they went on a field trip and were in an accident or something. They think maybe they made a wrong turn at night and went off a bridge into the ocean." Sandy wiped at her tears.
"There are a lot of places where that could happen." Nancy one of the other girls said. "They're always doing construction on the bridges and there are a lot of dangerous turnoffs."
"I heard the professor is missing also…. Dr. …ummm…..I can't remember his name."
"Dr. Morris. He teaches Physics."
"Wouldn't your boyfriend have told you if he was going on a field trip?" Sam asked Sandy.
"He usually does…but we had a fight and…" She put her face in her hands and started to cry. "And now he's missing and he could be dead."
"What was the class about?"
"Morris was trying to prove that he could make a solid object disappear by rearranging the molecular make up of the object. Corey and the others were really into it and he said that Morris was making some great breakthroughs in the area." Nancy said as she put her arm around Sandy trying to comfort her. "Corey said it was a top secret project and that Morris didn't want to release any information about it till he was sure his theories were working properly. The last thing I remember him saying was that Morris had run into some trouble and that he and the others were going to meet with him to see if they could work out the kinks. The next day they disappeared."
