We were sitting in a bar in Union Creek, Oregon, discussing our recent case. Apparently, there was a nest of vampires in this town that had managed to stay hidden from the British Men of Letters. I was a bit surprised. Vampires tend to avoid sunlight so I guess no one would think to look in a coastal state, but in this area there were mostly forests. Sam was trying to pinpoint their hideout and Dean was eating like he hadn't eaten for a month.
"Dean slow down, the food won't run away," I said, amused.
"You never know," he said and shrugged. Sam snorted but didn't look up.
They were trying to hide it but I could see that they were still angry with me for working with the Brits and not telling them. I was hoping that solving this case together would also solve our problems.
Suddenly I felt someone's gaze on me. I looked around and met a pair of green eyes. They belonged to a petite girl with strawberry blond hair. When our eyes met, she tensed and there was wariness in her eyes. Did she know us? We stared at each other for a few moments before a guy approached and shook her.
"What's wrong?," Sam asks.
"That red headed girl was staring at us. Do you know her?" I asked him.
"At all of us? I mean I can understand if she was staring at me..." Dean said, thoughtful.
Sam rolled his eyes and said no. I watched as she glanced at us again and averted her eyes when saw us watching her. She grabbed the bottles on the counter and said something to the guy. He hesitated but then put his arm around her guided her towards a booth where two more kids were sitting.
"Think its something we need to worry about?" San asked.
"... I'm not sure. I mean she seemed wary and tenseā¦but she looks pretty normal," I replied, uncertain.
Dean snorted, "Almost every monster we've met looked pretty normal until it tried to kill us, so I say we corner 'em outside."
"Hey, we're not sure if they're really a threat," Sam said with a scowl.
"I'll observe them for a while, just in case, you find the vamps," I told Sam. He nodded and looked back at his laptop and Dean went back to his food.
I watched those kids, well they weren't really kids. All of them appeared to be in their twenties, the strawberry blond girl, her boyfriend, a guy with olive skin and an Asian girl. They looked just like a bunch of people hanging out at a bar. They weren't doing anything out of the ordinary.
After a while, Sam looked up from his work and said, "I think I found their hideout. Anything unusual?" I shook my head.
"Maybe we're just being paranoid. Staring is not so unusual," Sam said and I raised my eyebrows, "Look we can't just go after a bunch of kids just because one of them's staring at us." I was not totally convinced and I could see Dean wasn't either but he had a point so I just nodded.
"Then lets go, gank some bloodsuckers," Dean said, getting up. Sam closed his laptop and moved to pay the bill. I looked at the kids one last time before following the boys outside.
