"Avalon doesn't take you where you want to go, it takes you where you need to be!" Puck said from the back of the car.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Sam asked but it was too late, Puck had disappeared again, "I'm starting to hate that little freak!" Dean said as he continued driving the again stopped at a sign, "So where are we now?" Sam asked as they leaned in to read the sign.
"Little Tall island, Main" Dean said, suddenly a man tapped on the car window, "Listen folks, you should really hurry down to the refuge, didn't you hear?"
"Uh…hear what?" dean asked the man, "It's going to be the Storm of the century!"
--Supernatural: Avalon--
The two brothers stopped at a market, "You can leave your car here while the storm passes" the man said as he pointed at the store, "Look for Mike Anderson, he's the police around here"
"The policeman has a shop?" Dean asked, "Yeah, not much happens around here so he's got to make a living somehow" the man tapped on the roof and waved goodbye as he walked back towards the docks.
"Puck said that this would lead us to where we need to be, why do you think we have to be here?" Sam asked as he put on a jacket and walked out in to the snow, "I don't know, but I think I preferred the desert!" Dean followed, "We might as well go talk to this Anderson guy, see if anything weird's been going on lately"
The two brothers entered the store and everyone stared at them, "What?" Dean asked a girl on the cash register, "Why does anyone come here when there's a storm coming?" The woman asked, "Well, We're police officers, we're looking for a serial killer!"
Everyone in the store gasped, and Sam whispered angrily at Dean, "Again with the serial killer?"
"Are you looking for the guy that killed Martha Clarendon?" the girl asked, "Yeah, that's who we're looking for" Dean said, "Mike and Hatch already caught him, they're bringing him over as we speak"
Suddenly a man ran past them, "excuse me Cat, Mike needs me to open the rear entrance!"
"that was Hatch, they must be taking the murderer in to custody" Cat said calmly, "So? How dangerous is he?" Cat asked as she chewed bubble gum, "Uh…We're not sure" Sam said as he looked at where Hatch had run off to"
"What's in the back?" Sam asked, "The cell, that's where Mike usually locks up the drunks, we've never had a real criminal here before"
Suddenly Hatch ran back out, "Listen, Mike is going to bring the guy through the front, so I want everybody to clear the way ok!" Hatch shouted, "This guy is dangerous"
"Hatch!" Cat shouted, "this two guys here are cops, they came searching for that guy from the main land!"
"Good! They can help!"
Hatch opened the door and a man walked in, handcuffed and followed by another man with a gun aimed at the first man's back, "Ok, Walk down isle two, and don't try anything stupid!" Mike said as he guided the man through the store, but the man walked slowly and calmly, stopping every once and a while to comment on the people in the store, "Hello Peter" the man steps in front of a man, "How's the fish business doing? Not well is it? It's a good thing you've also got the weed business to support you"
The man walked up to Cat, "And how are you doing, I can see you don't have a scratch on you, but that's expected now at days, why today they take it all out in one visit, I bet you haven't even told your family, or Billy? No? Maybe you should, after all, what's a little scratch between friends?"
"That's enough Linoge" Mike shouted, and the man continued walking until he approached the two brothers, "And who do we have here?" Linoge smiled, "Sam and Dean Winchester, this is a surprise" the man's eyes suddenly turned black then quickly returned to normal.
"Come on!" Mike pushed Linoge, "and where's Ralphie" Linoge said as a young boy ran towards him, he quickly picked up the boy and turned around, placing him between him and the gun, "Hey little fella, look what you have there" he pointed at the boy's nose which had a birth mark, "That looks like a horse saddle"
"That's what my dad calls it" the boy said happily, "Put him down!" Mike shouted angrily and Linoge only smiled, and placed the kid on the ground. "Now come on!" Mike took the man into the back room and locked him inside a cell, "If you ever get that close to my kid again I'll…"
"Kill me?" Linoge interrupted and again smiled.
"Ok, so we know he's a demon, but what is he planning?" Sam asked as he spoke to his brother, "He let himself be captured and has done nothing to attack us or this people here"
"So why don't we just exorcise him and get it over with?" Dean said as he walked towards the back room, "No, I say we play along for a while, see what he's up to"
"Hi" Sam walked up to mike, "My name is Officer Matthews, this is Officer Andrews, that man you just captured is suspected of several other murders in the main land, do you think we could talk to him?"
"Be my guest" Mike said as he let them into the back room, "Just be careful" The three of them stood there, watching Linoge as everyone finished they're shopping, "So Linoge?· Dean asked as he approached the demon, "What brings you to Little Tall Island?"
"What brings you here officer Andrews?" Linoge said calmly, playing along with the brother's charade, "I asked you first" Dean stood in front of the bars, "Give me what I want, and I'll leave"
"And what do you want?" Dean asked, "It's not time yet" Linoge smiled, "we'll talk later"
"Mike! The storm is getting worse" Hatch entered the room, "Ok, tell everyone to go to the town hall, I'll stay here and keep watch on this guy"
"If you don't mind" Sam spoke up, "We'd like to keep an eye on him, too, if he's who we think he is, he's a very tricky character"
"Yeah, sure" Mike nodded, "we'll watch him until the storm passes, then you can take him back into main land and lock him up for good"
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
A couple of hours had passed, and the brothers were still keeping watch on Linoge, accompanied by Mike Anderson, the four of them remained quiet, everyone else in town had already left for the town hall where they were protected from the storm.
Suddenly Linoge begun to laugh, "What is it?" Sam asked, "Just thinking, Azazel was right, you are a strong one, he made a right choice in you picking you"
"What do you mean?" Sam asked, "I mean that he made the right choice when he named you his heir"
"What did you say?" Sam asked angrily and suddenly woke up, he had been sleeping, Dean was sitting in the other side of the room keeping a close watch on Linoge and Mike was leaning on the wall, he looked over at Linoge who was still sitting in the same position he had been and saw his lips move, he was whispering to him, "Heir" Linoge smiled.
"This is stupid!" Sam said as he withdrew a water bottle, "let's get this over with!" he was about to throw the holly water when Linoge raised his hand and sent all three men flying against the far wall, "You want to stop all this games, Fine!" Linoge's voice echoed in the room, as a gust of wind filled the room with flying paper and moving furniture, "Give me what I want, and I'll leave, until then the storm wont end and the town's people will suffer, one by one I will kill them all"
Suddenly everything became calm and the three men fell to the ground, "What…what happened?" Mike asked, scared and puzzled, "Where'd he go? How'd he do that?" he said as he stared at the empty cell.
"He's not human" Dean said calmly as he got up, "And he's not going to rest until he gets it"
"The town hall? How fast can we get there?" Sam asked, "we have to hurry before he kills anyone else!"
The three men quickly ran out into Mike's car and headed up hill towards the town hall through snow and wind, "This guy, you said he wasn't human! What is he?" Mike asked as the vehicle speeded, "A demon, and a powerful one" Sam answered.
They reached the hall and entered, everything was quiet, suddenly Molly, Mike's wife ran up to her husband crying, "What Is it? What happened?" Mike asked worriedly, "It's Cat, she killed Billy Soames, then Cora Stanhope committed suicide by drowning herself in the bathroom"
"This is all Linoge's doing!" Dean said as he locked the door behind them, "Do you have any salt?" Sam asked and Molly looked at them puzzled, "What do you mean? Linoge? Was that the man you were keeping watch on? Did he escape?"
"Listen, I'll explain everything later" Mike looked at his wife, "But right now we need to do what this men say, ok?"
Molly nodded and turned to face the brothers, "there's some salt in the storage area, I'll go tell Ursula to help me bring it"
"Meanwhile I'd like to talk to Cat" Sam followed Molly down to the basement, "has she been acting like her self since she killed Billy?"
"Well, she's in shock, she said she doesn't know what came over her, we locked her up in a room and one of the men is keeping watch on her, she's in the last room down that hall"
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
"Cat? Are you here?" Sam entered a dark room, and heard a woman crying, "I…I killed him" Cat whispered, "I didn't want to, but I did, I killed him, I couldn't help it, it was like a dream" Cat suddenly leaned against Sam, "Do you know what that's like?" she cried
Sam stared at the confused girl, "Yeah, I do, and it wasn't your fault, but there's something I have to do"
He took out a small thermos and sprinkled the girl with holly water, "What was that?" Cat asked, tears still running down he cheeks, "I needed to see if you were truly sorry, now I know you are" he smiled as he led her out the door, "It's okay!" he said as a man standing on the other side of the door tried to stop them, "She's ok"
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
In a couple of minutes the brothers had the entire hall protected with salt on every window and door, "Hey Sam? This remind you of anything?"
"Yeah, but I don't think it's another trap, at least not for us, Linoge seemed genuinely surprised to see us here"
Mike ordered all the men to keep watch and the woman to keep the children protected in the basement, "So this will keep us safe?" he asked the brothers, "for a while" Dean answered, "but you heard him, he's after something, and he's not going to rest until he gets it"
"So what is he after?"
"We don't know, but we're going to find out!"
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Dean and Sam sat silently in the main hall, the main entrance was there and it seemed like the most appropriate place for Linoge to try and break in, "Sam?" Dean broke the silence they had kept for almost an hour, "What is it Dean?"
"What do you think he wants?"
"I don't know, could be anything, a magical amulet or something"
"Maybe he thinks we still have the colt?"
"If he wanted the colt he wouldn't have shown himself to us that easily, it'd be suicide"
"Maybe he wants an heir?" Dean asked, making Sam uneasy, "What makes you say that?" Sam turned to face his brother but was quickly struck by a Cane with a silver handle shaped like a wolf, "because he told me!" Dean smiled as he hit Sam again.
"How? The tattoo, we can't be possessed"
"Possessed?" Dean asked, "who said anything about being possessed?"
Suddenly there was a faint whistle that grew louder, it was a tune, a tune from a children's song, the doors to the main hall flew open and Linoge entered, walking calmly over the salt, "How are you doing this?" Sam asked angrily.
"How, you ask? I'll tell you how" Linoge smiled as he sat down on a bench, "Remember when Dean here sold his soul to save you? Who did you think he sold it to?"
"You?"
"That's right, the cross roads demon works for me, or should I say worked, she passed away when a nut job shot her in the head with the colt"
"What do you want?"
"I believe your brother made it very clear, I want an heir"
"Not that!" Sam shouted, "What do you want in exchange for my brother's soul?"
"Don't even try" Linoge laughed, "You know what would happen if I made a deal with you? Your brother would hunt me down and try to make another deal to save you, and then we'd be back to square one, I'm afraid not, I won't make a useless deal of which I cannot gain any profit"
"You want profit?" Sam asked, "How about if I give you something you really want?"
"And what would that be?" Linoge got up.
"An heir!"
"And how would you give me that?" Linoge became interested in Sam's offer, "You don't have any off springs, you're not married, heck you don't even have a girlfriend"
"No, but I'll get you your heir, I don't know how or when, but I'll get you one and then, you're going to let my brother out of his contract, he'll live a full life, and you'll free his soul"
"An interesting offer" Linoge stood eye to eye in front of Sam, "But you have nothing to back it up"
"You have my word!" Sam raised his hand, "Your word is not good enough" Linoge's voice suddenly echoed through the hall, "But I like your initiative" Linoge smiled, "Tell you what, I'll give your brother exactly six more months to live, but in exchange you must conceive a son within that period of time, I'll make it that easy, I don't care who the mother is, and you don't even have to get to know the little bastard, just do your thing and then leave the rest to me, it'll make things easier for you, no hard goodbyes"
"And if I do, you'll free my brother from his contract?"
"That's the deal, you give me your first born, and I'll free you brother" Linoge smiled, "And what about me? Dean's contract said that if we try to weasel our way out of it I'd…"
"This is a new contract, you will live" Linoge smiled, "If you honor it, if you don't, well I make no guarantees" Linoge held out his hand, "Do we have a deal?"
Sam stared at him for a few seconds then shook hands with the demon, "very well" Linoge said happily, "when your brother wakes up you two should go take a walk by the shoreline, "It's a beautiful day" he looked over to the open door leading outside and saw the shinning sun, "too bad the town's people won't be able to enjoy it!"
There was a loud scream coming from the basement, Sam looked in the direction of the stairs then back at where Linoge had been standing but the room was empty now, and Dean was laying unconscious on the floor.
Sam quickly ran to the basement but the scene was to horrible for him to bare, everything, floor, walls and ceiling was covered in blood and guts, and in the middle stood Cat Withers, her eyes wide with shock, "Oops, I did it again!" she said with a big smile as she took a gun up to her head and with a loud bang Sam was now the only living person in that basement.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
"So the demon killed everyone, took an amulet that was hidden inside the hall and then left?" Dean asked, "Yeah, that's about it" Sam said as the two brothers got in their car, "he said that if he got what he wanted he'd leave, so he did"
"It's a shame, so many people down there, all of them gone because a Demon liked antiques"
Fog begun to cover the street and after a few minutes of silent driving it cleared up again, they were driving down a country road, this time with the sun high in the sky, "Where do you think we are now?"
After a while they found a gas station, "Excuse me sir?" Dean asked a man sitting by the pump, "We seem to be a little lost, could you tell us where we are?"
"Sure thing!" the man said happily, "You're in Smallville, Kansas!"
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
