John Winchester called. But he didn't tell where he was or what he was up to, he only called to give Sam and Dean the coordinates of a town in Indiana where he thought that it might be a hunt, Dean took the information from his dad and asked no questions so did Josie, but Sam wasn't happy with that he wanted to know where his father was and what was the thing John was chasing who said it was a demon.
On the way to the town in Indiana that John told them about, Sam was driving while Josie and Dean were looking at a series of disappearances in and around the town.
"So all the missing people are couples," Josie stated.
"Yup, three different couples, different towns and different destinations, took a road trip cross country and never got to their destinations." Dean said.
"It's a big country Dean, they could've disappeared anywhere." Sam huffed.
"Yeah, they could have," Josie said. "But each one of them is routed to the same part of Indiana, always on the second week of April."
"One year after another, after another, after another." Dean continued after her and kept repeating.
"And this is the second week of April." Josie said hitting Dean to stop repeating his sentence.
"So, dad is sending us to Indiana, to go hunting for something before another couple vanishes?" Sam questioned.
"Yahtzee!" Dean and Josie said at once.
"Can you imagine putting together a pattern like this?" Dean said excited.
"And the different obits John had to go through?" Josie agreed.
"The man is a MASTER!" Dean said.
"I know, isn't he?" Josie agreed, excited.
Suddenly Sam parked the car on the side of the road.
"What the hell?"
"What are you doing?" Dean and Josie exclaimed asking.
"We're not going to Indiana." Sam stated.
"We're not?" Dean and Josie asked confused.
"No. We're going to California," Sam said. "Dad called from a pay phone, a Sacramento area code."
"Sam!" Dean started but Sam cut him off.
"Dean, if this demon killed mom and Jess and dad's closing in we've got to be there." Sam said. "We've got to help."
"Dad doesn't want our help." Dean said.
"I don't care!" Sam yelled.
"He gave us an order!" Dean yelled back.
"I don't care!" Sam shouted.
"Shut up! You both just shut the hell up!" Josie yelled from the back seat smacking their heads. "Sam, John asked us to do a job, it's important, we're saving people's lives."
"I know and understand Josie; I'm talking one week here, to get answers, to get revenge." Sam said.
"Dad said it's not safe, for any of us," Dean told him. "I mean, he obviously knows something that we don't. So if he says to stay away, we stay away!"
"I don't understand the blind faith you have in the man." Sam yelled at his brother. "You don't even question him!"
"Yeah, it's called being a good son!" Dean yelled back.
"SHUT UP!" Josie screamed. "How many freakin times should I say it?"
"Ok, I'll shut up!" Sam said and got out of the car.
"Where are you going?" Josie asked getting out of the car too.
"You're a selfish bastard. Do you know that?" Dean yelled at Sam seeing him opening the trunk taking his stuff out. "You do whatever you want, don't care what anybody thinks."
"Is that what you think?" Sam asked.
"YES!" Dean told him.
"And I agree with him!" Josie said. "Sam, you know if your dad doesn't want to be found, he won't be found."
"You think that?" she nodded. "Anyway, and as a selfish bastard I'm going to California!" Sam said.
"Come on, you're not serious?" Dean exclaimed. "It's the middle of the night!"
"I am serious." Sam told him.
"We'll take off and leave your ass here!" Josie threatened Sam.
"That's what I want you two to do." Sam told them.
"Well, Good bye Sam." Dean said closing the trunk and headed to the driver's seat. "Come on Josie!"
Both Dean and Josie left Sam and got into the car driving away.
"Do you think he'll be ok?" Josie asked Dean just few minutes after.
Dean looked at her with his eyebrows raised. "What the hell! Didn't you just leave his ass on the road?"
"Like you're not worried too," she snapped. "And I thought when I threaten him he'll back off and get back in the freakin car."
"Well, he didn't," Dean said. "Sam is stubborn and sure I'm worried." Dean huffed.
"Should we call him?"
"I don't know," Dean told her. "We have a case."
"Yeah, I guess you're right!" Josie sighed. And Dean kept driving.
Dean and Josie arrived at the town and they went to the first place they found a café called 'Scotty's Café' where a man was sitting outside of it.
Dean and Josie went to talk to the man.
"Let me guess, Scotty?" Dean questioned.
"Yup!" the man replied.
"Hi, my name's John Bonham." Dean told the man, "And this is my girlfriend Sara." He pointed at Josie.
"Isn't that the drummer from Led Zeppelin?" Scotty questioned. Josie glared at Dean.
"Wow, a classic rock fan!" Dean exclaimed smiling nervously.
"What can I do for you John? And you Sara?" Scotty asked.
Josie showed him the pictures of the last two missing couple.
"I was wondering if you've seen those people by chance?
"No, who are they anyway?" Scotty asked.
"Friends of ours," Dean said. "They went missing about a year ago, they passed somewhere around here. We have already asked around."
"Sorry," Scotty said giving them the pictures. "We don't get many strangers around here."
"Scotty, you've got a smile that lights up a room," Dean said. "Did anybody ever tell you that?" he asked sarcastically.
Josie elbowed him to shut him up. "Do you know any good hotel or motel we can stay in?" Josie asked nicely giving the man her sweetest smile.
Scotty smiled back, surprising Dean. "Yeah, sure." He said and gave Josie the directions to the town's hotel.
So, Dean and Josie left to ask other people in town about the missing couple, they went to a near by store. The man and the woman who owned the place said they didn't see the couples before but the girl who was there recognized the man in the picture from his tattoo.
"I remember them," the girl said. "They were just married; they did stop for gas weren't here more than ten minutes."
"You remember anything else?" Dean asked the girl.
"Oh yah, my uncle here told them how to get back to the inner state, they left town."
"Could you point me in the same direction?"
The store owner gave them the directions as he gave to the missing couples.
When Dean and Josie were on the road the man give destination to, the EMF went crazy making them stop to check out the place. They went to the orchard and the first thing they saw was a creepy scarecrow.
"Dude, you're fugly!" both Dean and Josie said at the same time.
"Dean, get that ladder, I want to take a closer look." Josie said.
Dean got the ladder for her to climb and she did while he was holding it for her. Josie looked at the scarecrow's arm seeing something familiar.
"Give me those photos Dean!" she asked. Looking at the photos and the scarecrow arms she saw that it had the same tattoo the missing guy had. "Dean, Dean." Josie called but Dean's mind was focused on something else. "You better stop staring at my ass man whore, or I'll make sure you won't see again!"
Dean looked up at her. "You're obsessed with your ass!"
"Yeah, right!" she said climbing down the ladder. "Just check this out!"
Dean went up to see what she was talking about and he saw the tattoo on the scarecrow's arm. "Nice tat!" he smirked.
"So, what now?" Josie asked Dean when he climbed down the ladder.
"We'll go back to the town and see if we can get any more info," Dean said walking with her to the car. "And we can get a room too."
Josie turned to face him. "What room? We're here on a case!"
"I know smartass, and I know that I need to sleep too. And also we need to act as a couple maybe they we will be the bait." Dean told her.
"Dean, this is so freakin risky!" Josie said.
"I know, but better to be us than another couple; we can handle the risk but not them." He said.
"Yeah, with the exception of one thing," Josie said, Dean looked at her questioning. "That we're not a couple. Remember that!" She said getting into the car. Dean huffed getting into the car as well.
They got back to the town and stopped by the store they went to before as it is also a gas station, and they found the girl who told them about the couple, her name was Emily. She was at the station and filled up the car.
"So Emily, have you been out to the orchard? Seen that scarecrow?" Josie asked her.
"Yeah, it's creepy I don't even know why its there." Emily told her. "It has always been there since I came to live with my aunt and uncle when I was 13."
"Thanks Emily," Dean smiled. "Do you think we can get a room here?"
"Yeah, sure."
Dean and Josie went up in a room to get some rest before they search again.
"Josie, don't you think we should do something?" Dean said once they got into the room.
Josie went to lay down on the king sized bed. "Something like what?"
"You know, Sam isn't here and we're acting like a couple, and maybe the evil people are watching us, so?" Dean said lying next to her on the bed, getting closer.
"Ha, ha forget it Winchester," she said straighten seating up. "And if they are watching you idiot, the last thing I want them to see is me having sex you perv. Now come on get off your ass and lets do some research." She said and went to open her laptop to start researching. Dean huffed murmuring but Josie couldn't hear what he said but she could imagine.
They spent the next three hours working researching through web sites and John's journals.
"Shit! Looks like this damn scarecrow eats people or something, I mean they sacrifice people for it," Josie sighed. "Those people are sick."
"Of course they are," Dean said. "They are sacrificing people for a pagan god to keep their town safe!"
"Ok, I'm gonna get some rest," she informed taking her phone. "I'm calling Sammy, can't take it anymore."
"Well, I was gonna call him anyway!" Dean said.
Josie nodded and dialed Sam's number.
"Hey Sammy! Missed me?" she smirked and turned on the speaker so Dean could hear too.
"Kinda, but not so much!" Sam teased.
"Ouch, that was harsh. You're the one who left me with Dean the pervert, I should be mad at you." She giggled.
"Shut up!" Dean said. "Hey Sam, we're having so much fun in this town, with all the pagan gods and crazy people."
"Yes Sam, they have a scarecrow that kills people, awesome town." Josie said.
"Why are they doing this?" Sam asked.
"We're thinking about ritual sacrifice to please some Pagan God, so a god-or what ever this thing is-possesses a scarecrow and the scarecrow takes its sacrifice and for another year the crops won't wilt and disease won't spread." Josie told him.
"Do you know which God we're dealing with?As if you figure out what it is, you can figure out a way to kill it." Sam said.
"Nope, not yet, but I have an appointment with a college professor in the local community college." Dean informed.
"Really when was that?" Josie exclaimed.
"When you were listening to music instead of researching thinking that I didn't see you," Dean teased. "Since I don't have my trusty sidekick geek boy to do all the research." Dean said.
"You know, if you need help just ask," Sam said.
"Nope, and I want you to know that you were right, you got to do your own thing you got to live your own life." Dean told Sam.
"Are you serious?" Sam exclaimed.
"And you've always known what you want when you go after it. You stand up to dad; I admire that about you, hell I wish I could do the same." Dean said. "I'm proud of you Sammy."
"I don't even know what to say!" Sam exclaimed.
"Hey Dianna, and Samantha!" Josie yelled. "Stop the chick flakey stuff and you Dianna, get your sweet ass off and go to the college. Sammy, I'm proud of you too, you know I always have been."
"Thanks Josie." Sam said with a chuckle.
"Josie you're annoying," Dean huffed. "And don't call me a girl's name again."
"See Dean, it hurts." Sam said, laughing.
"Come on Dianna; don't be so grumpy, you don't look so hot when you're cranky!" Josie teased pissing Dean off.
"Bye Sam, I gotta go now cause Josie here is getting on my nerves." Dean said storming out of the room.
"Josie, you're mean!" Sam chuckled.
"I know," she said. "Its part of my charm!" she giggled.
