Author's notes:
Okay, I'd like to start off by saying sorry I've been away for so long. I had a lot of things to take care of such as finals and work. I'd also like to add a disclaimer that I'm going to India for 3 weeks this summer to study abroad (July 9th-July 29th, 2017 are the dates I'll be gone.) and I probably will not post anything while there, but may keep writing so I have something to post when I get back. Thank you for your patients!

Chapter 3
After thinking a while about letting these strangers into her home, Jamie finally agreed to let them come in, only because she wanted to hear what they had to say. She let them in and closed the door behind them. Jamie walked into the cream-colored living room as the three strangers followed. She plopped down on the edge her usual spot, the light blue recliner facing the opposite side of the room where a window was with the matching love seat in front of it. The men just stood there uncomfortably looking around. After a long awkward silence, Jamie motioned to the couch and said,
"Sit, I want to know what's going on."
The Sam and John sat beside each other on the couch while Dean sat on the arm of the sofa near Sam. John cleared his throat and then spoke.
"Well, you may not believe me, but what I'm about to tell you is the honest to god truth." He looked Jamie straight in the eye and said,
"We're hunters."
Jamie scoffed and rolled her eyes,
"Okay? You mean you kill Bambi's mom for fun?"
John looked at her with a serious face,
"What we hunt are the things that go bump in the night."
Sam chimed in and said,
"Demons, Vampires, Werewolves, and Ghost. You name it we've probably hunted it down and killed it[Célie Bol1] ."
Jamie now looked dazed, her life had just been flipped upside-down. All the things, the creatures, she had been so infatuated with were real?
"W-what?" she murmured. "You're all crazy. There are crazy people in my house. And I just let them in."
Dean then got up from his seat and walked over to Jamie and got down on her level of eye site as if she were a three-year-old throwing a tantrum.
"Look me in the eye and tell me we're lying."
Jamie looked at Dean and could tell that they all were telling the truth. All sorts of questions raced through Jamie's mind. Why had her mom never mentioned her dad and brothers to her before? Why did she keep all this a secret even when she knew Jamie had a thing for the supernatural? How did her mother meet John in the first place? Had John known about her all this time or did he just find out about her through the letter her mother sent?
As soon as the question of if John had known about her had entered her mind, John said,
"I know you must have a million questions on your mind and I'll be happy to answer them all but we need to go. Pack the essentials and meet us out in the Impala. There's a job in Greenwood in the next county over."
Jamie looked confused and said to them,
"Don't I get a say in whether or not I get to stay? Besides, it's my senior year! I can't just pick up everything and leave!"
John remarked,
"You're my responsibility now. I am your closest living relative and what I say goes. You can't live here on your own. You don't have a job or money. You need to come with us for protection anyway. We don't know if your mom was murdered or not and if she was we don't know if they'll come after you."
Jamie felt heated with rage, but then she thought "What if they're right, I mean mom's death was pretty fishy now that I think about it…"
She calmed down and said,
"Alright… I'll go with you, on one condition. We hunt down the bastard that killed my mom."
Then Sam and Dean looked at each other, Jamie could sense worry in their eyes. But John looked at her and held out his hand and said,
"Sounds good to me, do we have a deal?"
Jamie grabbed his hand and shook it.
"Deal." She said.
