"Morning sunshine," Sam yelled as Jude giggled, following him through to the kitchen.

"Fuck off, Sammy," Dean mumbled as he rolled over in annoyance.

Sam rolled his eyes and opened the blinds, letting through burning bright rays of sunlight, like the storm last night had never existed in the first place.

"Alright, alright, I'm awake."

"Geez, someone's grumpy this morning," Sam chuckled.

"Yeah, you try sleeping on the couch in the storm last night, to say it was loud was an understatement. Anyway... Jude, what would you like for breakfast - first meal as a human, right?"

"Oh my god, I completely forgot about food. Dean, what do you suggest?"

"Well, sweetheart, personally I prefer the bacon double cheeseburger; but that's not exactly a breakfast food."

"Maybe, you should start off with something small Jude," Sam said, "We don't know how well your system will react to food in general; so maybe try a fruit salad? Fruit is good for you so it'd probably be a better thing to start off with than a food fueled by saturated fats and salt."

"Lighten up, Samantha, it's just one burger. Look at me - I'm fine and I've been eating them my whole life."

"No, Sam's right, I'm used to a diet of car oil and gas. Maybe it'll be too much of a shock to my system to go straight to the good stuff - but you know, all in due time."

"So, shall we go to a diner? We can discuss the case and talk about what's going to happen with Jude now that everyone has calmed down a bit."


The diner down the road was a bright and bubbly place that had a 60's race car theme about it. Jude breathed in the smell of greasy foods and sweet fluffy pancakes and her mouth began to water. She followed the boys to sit in a booth with racing car style chairs and a racing flag laid upon the table. A young smiley waitress with blindingly bright red lips and golden blonde hair approached the table.

"Good morning, and welcome Automotive Appetite, can I take your orders?"

"Yeah," Sam spoke up. "One fruit salad and orange juice, one bacon double cheeseburger and a black coffee, and the muesli with a 5:2 energy juice. Thank you."

The waitress nodded and smiled again as she turned away.

"An 'energy juice' - really? You're such a girl," Dean laughed.

"Dean, my beverage preferences do not dictate my masculinity," said Sam, as Dean rolled his eyes. "Now, last night I came up with an idea on how Jude can work the case with us while staying safe and within eye sight. Especially with the case that we have, I think she could be a real asset to us."

"Well, let's hear it then."

"What if she comes with us for most of the work, you know, researching, interviewing, checking stuff out, but for the final showdown, she stays at the hotel? That way she can experience most things, but as soon as the dangerous stuff comes, she is out of harms way."

"Would that be okay, Jude?" Dean said, turning to face the girl dressed in black.

"I guess, to be honest, I sorta want to experience being a real hunter, but I am not willing to die for this."

"Perfect," Sam smiled. "We have finally reached an agreement."

The waitress returned with three plates of food.

"Here you go, the fruit salad for the lady, the burger for the gentlemen and the muesli for you, hot stuff." Sam blushed. How did she guess their orders, anyway? "I'll be right back with your drinks."

Once the waitress had come and gone again, not as subtly as she thought slipping her number to Sam, Dean brought out the papers on the case and they began to discuss their plan of attack.

"First things first, we need to go to the source of the disappearances. I say after breakfast, we go to the track where it all takes place. I did a bit of research after everyone went to bed, and it turns out that there's a museum linked to the track, so maybe we can find some answers there." Dean suggested.

Sam nodded and the trio quickly finished their meals, paid, and left, leaving a certain waitress slightly disappointed.


"Hello, my name is Agent Hudson, this is Agent McQueen, and this is Agent Sally - FBI," Dean said pointing to Sam and Jude as the three flashed their badges, "We're here to investigate the three missing persons cases that have occurred here in the past week. We have heard that all three victims were huge car fans so we were wondering if you knew a Mr. Stefan Armati, Mr. Michael Williams, or a Mr. Steve Busch?"

The owner of the track looked solemn and nodded sadly. "Yes, I knew all three people, they were volunteers at the museum on the weekend. All of them were car enthusiasts, so having them on board at the museum really helped to boost the authenticity of the place."

"Do you know if anything strange happened in the days leading up the disappearances? Any weird noises, lights flickering, random cold spots?" Sam asked.

"Now that you mention it, yes. I was in the car display room and it went really cold all of a sudden. Then, I must have been seeing things, but I could have sworn that I saw a sad looking man in the reflection of the car bonnet. I was polishing the cars for the weekend, you see. The cars, they were going to be part of a new exhibit. Each car had an interesting history to it, you know? Crashes, victories, that sort of thing. Now I guess we'll have to push back the opening; the automotive community is not ready to see happiness whilst we are still mourning the loss of such close friends."

"You say it like everyone in this town is related," Dean said, intrigued.

"Well, it's not like this is exactly a big town, the racing fan community is also quite small, so I guess you could say we are one big family."

"Just one more question sir," Jude said nervously. "Did anyone die in any of the display cars?"

"Yeah, actually, now you mention it, there's this beautiful powder blue '64 Mustang that was owned by a young couple. In 1995 they got lost on the way to their honeymoon and parked on the side of the road to look at a map. Unfortunately, this mass murderer was around the area they were parked in and the next day they were found in the car without their heads. Such a tragic end to such a beautiful young couple."

"Thank you for your time sir," Jude said smiling as the three turned to leave.
