I had run into a man with shaggy brown hair that was wearing an olive jacket and blue jeans. He was clutching his silver laptop in his arms; which is a good thing, I would have felt horrible if he had dropped it because of me.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry" I apologized profusely, but then I realized what was all over the floor. My spiral notebooks, books, pens, etc. But the most important was the curvy dagger and pistol laying on top of all of it. I practically threw myself over it and tried to shove it in my bag, but the damage was already done
"You preparing for a war or something?" The man chuckled, standing up and holding a hand out to me. I sheepishly shoved everything into my bag and he lifted me up. "Um, not exactly" I replied. I completely bet my face is bright red right now. At least he didn't start screaming that I had weapons in my bag.
"I'm Sam" He told me, breaking the uncomfortable silence. Before I could tell him mine, he sudden spoke.
"What's the pentagram for?" I, out of habit of not remembering what I'm wearing regardless of how long it'd been since I last took it off, quickly looked down. The silver chain with the large medium-sized silver pentagram stood out brightly against my black shirt and black jacket.
"Protection" I muttered, grabbing the charm and gripping it in my fist.
"First you have a silver dagger and gun in your bag and now you wear a decent sized pentagram. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you're a hunter" Sam laughed uncomfortably, looking at me with pleading eyes.
"Yeah, I am. Are you?" I shifted my feet. Sam's face almost lit up.
"Yeah, yeah I am. Me and my brother, we're hunters. It's the family business. I've never really met a female hunter yet, at least like this. This is great, you've come got to come meet my brother" Sam rattled off almost excitedly. Before I knew it, I was being whisked over to a table by Sam.
In a few seconds I found myself sitting in a booth across from another man. He had shorter and lighter hair and was wearing a dark brown jacket. He flashed me a smile and folded his hands together on the table. He was someone my best friend Cali would be all over at first sight.
"Sam, who is this lovely young lady now sitting at our table?" He asked, giving me a suspicious look.
"She's a hunter" Sam told him, fiddling with his jacket. He raised his eyebrows.
"Well, I'm Dean Winchester. It's a pleasure to meet you, miss..?" Dean leaned back in the booth.
"Danica Astria" Both of them gave me a look. "Astria, huh? That's a really old name you have there, Danica" Dean kept his eyebrows raised. Sam just looked pure interested.
"Yeah, well so is Winchester" I stopped myself from making a smart comment to the most polite hunters I'd met so far, and that was sad on Dean's part. "What are you guys doing in Wayland?" I changed the topic.
"I found an article online about a spirit showing up in the tunnel in the back of the town" Sam piped in, pointing out the window in the direction it was in.
"Yeah, it's another Woman in White hunt" I added, picking at my nails.
"Probably is, but I know it needs to be taken care of before she turns violent to the people" Dean crossed his arms over his chest.
"Too late, ran into a women with a large cut on her cheek during her encounter on the way here" I justified. Sam's face grew serious.
"Then we need to go there as soon as possible. Hey, I know we just met and all, but do you want to go with us? Like on a group hunt? We don't normally work with other hunters, but you are here on the same case and all" Sam asked with a small smile. Dean gave him a look, but said nothing.
"Uh, sure" I smiled, shifting in my seat. "Though can we eat first? I'm starving"

Near the end of their lunch, Dean got up to pay, no matter how much I insisted I would cover my own meal, and left me and Sam sitting there.
"So, you're David Astria's daughter, right?" Sam asked
"Yeah, my mother is Riley Astria. I had a brother named Nate Astria, too" I told him with a sigh.
"Had? Did something happen to him?" Sam asked in a concerned tone. I took a deep breath and slowly let it out to calm my nerves.
"Yeah, he was attacked by a demon. Never got to say goodbye to him either" I summarized with a frown.
"Wow, I'm so sorry. I know how you feel, both my Mom and my last girlfriend were killed by a demon, the same one too" He sighed also.
"I guess death of loved ones just comes with this job, huh?" I asked with a half hearted laugh. Sam looked me in the eyes.
"It does, but you'll be able to move through it eventually" He kept eye contact with me for a few more seconds, and I was too stunned to move. There was more to Sam Winchester than you got by just looking at him. I had a strange feeling there was even more than I was guessing about.
"You kids ready? We have a Woman in White to investigate." Dean ordered, ushering us out of the diner booth. Okay, let's do this.
