Chapter 3)
-Without a Clue-
The black Impala pulled up in front of the hotel.
Dean had finally let Sam drive after he had almost killed them both with he's little flight from the main road into the woods. After a few moments of silence Dean had climbed out of the car, walked over to Sam's side, opened the door and said "Maybe you ought to drive". Dean had gotten into the passenger seat and before Sam had gotten into the driver seat Dean was fast asleep. They still had a few hours more driving to do, and with slightly confusing directions to follow. Still Sam didn't want to wake Dean up, even though he could use the help Dean needed the sleep.
"We're here" The words sounded like they were a mile away as Dean's dream faded away and he woke up to Sam's tired face.
"Dude… just a few more minutes man… I just had the perfect dream!" Dean grinned and rubbed his eyes.
"I could, but that would mean you having a few perfect hours of sleep, good rest and a nice little dream about who knows what… It would just be wrong of me to let you have that kind of bliss bro!" Sam grinned back at his brother's morning face. At least he seems okay today in contrast to the last few days.
The brothers got out of the car and stepped up the 14 steps up to the main hotel door.
----
15 minutes later they were again on the porch in front of the main hotel door looking more clueless now than ever.
"Soooo…. Guess we are going to play this game?" Sam looked curiously over at Dean.
"Hell no!" Dean replayed. "Does it look like I'm going to run around this place looking for hidden boxes and bags to collect points?"
Sam laughed…
"Well… Okay, maybe not, but you know… this could be fun!"
"Yeah geek boy… you just go and play, I'm not here for fun. I'm here to figure out what kind of freak thing is going on around here and kill it"
"So… got a plan genius?" Sam looked over at his brother with a huge grin on his face. He in fact loved this situation. First of all, he used to love these kinds of games when he was a kid. Didn't matter how little meaning they gave… just to go and do something irregular a few days was fun in itself. Second of all this reminded him on a camp John had sent him and Dean too when they were kids. Dean had gotten lost during a trip into the woods and Sam had found him on the beach swearing at the river blaming everyone else for leaving him, though they were in fact just around the corner the whole time.
"No" Dean paused… "But I will get one… First we need to figure out if anyone knows what's going on here. Why don't we split up…? Infiltrate our teams…. and try to dig up some information?"
Sam agreed and they decided that during the competition between the teams this evening they would sneak away and meet up at the Impala. Sam walked down the stairs, got into the car and drove around the hotel to park it. Dean was standing on the porch looking out onto the two fields in front of the hotel that were split by the road. This road apparently also split the teams too.
Dean noticed a man standing in the middle of the field looking back at him. Who the hell is that? The man looked familiar but Dean couldn't place him. Dean ran down the stairs and tried to make his way to the field, but by the time he closed in to the spot where the man had been he was no where to be seen.
----
"Three!" The words echoed over the whole field. "Two!" All of the people were gathered in the two fields in front of the hotel. "One!" Dean was standing in the middle of the right field looking like a lost kid searching for his mother in an overcrowded mall. "GOOO!" As the countdown ended the whole field broke into a huge joint roar as they started to run everywhere.
Dean had spend the whole day trying to get in touch with anyone that could tell him if anything was going on at this place, but everyone he talked to either thought this was the greatest place to be, or didn't want to talk to him at all. Dean didn't even know the point of this game was, and didn't know what they were supposed to do as the team leaders shouted "GO"
The teams spread into the forest, around the fields, behind the hotel and down at the water and Dean was standing alone in the field. He turned around walking towards the forest that lay behind him thinking that he might be able to catch up on something. As he got closer to the forest he started to hear footsteps. He turned around but didn't see anything else than a few people running around on the other side of the field too far away for him to hear. Still the sound of the footsteps didn't go away.
Dean turned again trying to catch what was running around him. The footsteps stopped and Dean shook his head figuring this was just another step towards losing his mind. At least no one can blame me... After all that has happened in my life it would just be normal if I actually lost it at some point. Dean joked to himself as he continued into the forest.
----
Kat was sitting on a log in the forest away from everything that was going on around the hotel at this hour. The day had gone by to fast and she was now sitting and waiting for the dark to once more come an consume her mind. She felt like crying endlessly but there were no more tears left to cry. All that was left was fear of the night, fear of what might happen. She sat on the log rocking slowly back and fourth with her legs shaking nervously and biting her nails.
She was too consumed to see that someone was coming on the top of the little hill behind her.
----
"Hi" Dean found himself lying under a unknown girl in the middle of the forest. He had slipped and tumbled down the hill and took her with him in the tumble.
She looked him in to his eyes, looking like a dear caught in the headlights before she felt a wave of embarrassment wash over her and she jumped up.
"At least I broke the fall for both of us…" He tried to joke to ease the tension but it didn't seem to work at all as the girl just stood there looking shocked.
"Soo… are you okay?" He asked as he started to wonder if she had gotten hurt in the fall
After a short while she gave him a slow nod indicating that she was okay.
"Uhm… Ok…" Dean raised his arms to the sides shrugging, and then let them drop again. "Guess you just want to be left a lone… I'll go now okay"
He turned and started to walk in the direction of the lake.
"No wait!" She said as he was about to disappear behind some trees, the desperate tone in her voice filled with despair.
Dean turned his head as he did not quite catch the words.
"Did you say something?"
She looked at him as her eyes filled up with tears and she barely got the words out before she broke down crying.
"Don't go!"
Ok... so I think the story is beginning to take some kind of form... though not quite sure yet... are you?
Please R&R?
