Thanks for the support with the first chapter. This is really something new for me to write, so I'm glad that you guys enjoy it. Okay, here is chapter two and I hope you'll enjoy it.
Kaitlyn was sitting in her truck, watching the little dirt road from behind a few bushes. She was looking through her binoculars and saw a young man dig a hole right in the middle of the crossroad and put a small box inside. Then he stepped back and waited, jumping when suddenly the demon he had been summoning appeared next to him. He was dressed in an all black, tailored suit and exuded an air of superiority. Kaitlyn could tell even from as far away as she was.
So this was Crowley, King of the crossroads. Finally she had a face to the name and it was a rather handsome face. If he wasn't a demon…. No, that didn't matter now. He was a demon and she would kill him.
She watched as the young man made his deal and sealed it with a kiss. She kind of wished she could interrupt them but she had no plan of how to kill the demon yet. It had been hard enough to find him. After learning his name it taken her weeks to get here. He was a powerful demon and other demons seemed to be afraid of him. He was no one she could just easily trap and exorcise. She needed to learn more about him first.
She fought the urge to just go back and summon Crowley right away. She wasn't prepared and she needed to be patient if she wanted to be successful. With a sigh she put the car into gear and drove back to her motel to come up with a plan.
She stayed in her room for several days trying to figure out how to best lure Crowley into a trap. She had never before summoned a demon to kill it. So far she had always followed the tell-tale signs of demon activity and had encountered them somewhere in a small town, having fun with the townspeople.
After several days of developing ideas and then dismissing them, she finally remembered something she'd heard when she'd once stopped at bar where she had met another female hunter. She had gotten along well with Jo Harvelle, who had told her stories about other hunters. Kaitlyn had been fairly new to hunting then and had been very curious about other people hunting evil.
Jo had told her about the Winchesters, two brothers who Jo had seen just a few weeks before meeting Kaitlyn. Apparently Jo had a bit of a crush on Dean, the older brother and talked mostly about him. And she had also talked about how Dean had once summoned a crossroads demon and trapped it with a trick. Maybe this would also work on Crowley.
The next day she returned to the crossroad with everything she needed to summon a demon. She quickly dug a hole, put her little box inside and waited. And waited some more. After fifteen minutes she was sure that Crowley wasn't going to show up anymore this night and she turned towards her car, only to find herself face to face with a stunning woman. At first Kaitlyn thought she had just met someone from the nearby town but then the woman's eyes went completely black for a moment and she knew she was dealing with a demon.
"You called?" the woman drawled in a way that made Kaitlyn shudder.
"I…I didn't expect you," Kaitlyn said slowly, quite surprised by this turn of events.
"Who did you expect?" the demon asked in the same low drawl and stepped closer, causing Kaitlyn to step back, towards her truck.
"I expected to see Crowley. But it doesn't matter. I'm sure you can help me as well," she said, having quickly recovered from the small shock. She'd stick to the plan anyway and try to get some more information out of this demon.
"Crowley? How do you know about him?" the demon asked, now surprised herself. "Never mind, it's not important. Well, Crowley just filled in for me when I was busy. So, what could you want from me? Beauty, wealth, a boyfriend?" she said as she regarded Kaitlyn's obviously old clothes and her apparently intimidated demeanor.
"Could we sit down? I think I'd be more comfortable then," Kaitlyn asked and the demon sneered but agreed and followed Kaitlyn to her truck. But she stopped right before the car, having noticed the edges of the devil's trap that was badly hidden underneath the car.
"You little bitch. You tried to trap me. Do you have a death wish?" the demon snarled.
"No, no. See, I expected to meet Crowley. This has nothing to do with you. I was just nervous about meeting a demon and wanted protection," Kaitlyn explained and destroyed the lines of the trap before walking around the car and hopping onto the bed of her truck to settle down comfortably on a folded blanket and after a moment the demon followed her, sitting down on the second blanket Kaitlyn offered her.
"Okay, so what can I do for you?" the demon asked again, now sounding friendly and reassuring to not endanger a potential deal.
"Well, all I need is information," Kaitlyn answered and got up to jump off the truck bed. The demon tried to follow but couldn't. With a roar of anger she ripped the blankets away to reveal a second devil's trap that kept her firmly in place.
"You bitch. I'm going to rip you apart. I'm going to paint this street with your blood and wear your entrails as a necklace," she threatened but Kaitlyn wasn't impressed. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and waited till the demon stopped ranting.
"This is really bad luck for you. I wasn't looking for you today. But now you are going to tell me where I can find Crowley."
"You really don't want to find him. He's going to squash you like a bug," the demon warned.
"I don't intend to give him the chance to," Kaitlyn replied. "So, are you going to help me out or do you want to spend more time in that little trap? It's going to be really uncomfortable for you though," she continued as she went to the passenger door of the truck and got out a bag with hunting supplies.
"If I help you, you're going to let me go?"
"Sure. I told you, I have no business with you. It's Crowley I want," Kaitlyn said, doing her best impression of a perfectly innocent and honest country girl.
"Okay, well, you're not going to find him here in small town America," the demon said and then continued to give Kaitlyn directions to Crowley's favorite spot for deals.
"Thank you. That was really helpful," Kaitlyn told her and then started the familiar exorcism. The demon screeched and yelled obscenities at Kaitlyn but Kaitlyn hadn't been able to hunt so many demons without being known to them, by letting them go and she couldn't start now.
When the demon was gone, the young woman, who had been possessed, collapsed on the truck bed. Kaitlyn quickly checked to see if she was alive and was relieved that the woman was merely unconscious. She drove to the next hospital, saying she'd found the girl unconscious next to the street and then she left to find Crowley.
A week later she was hiding behind a concrete pillar under a huge overpass watching Crowley, wearing the same sexy black suit, making a deal with another man.
