Ice Princess
Chapter seven
The lake, present time
"You okay?" Sam asked as he looked over at Dean who was still staring out the window at the lake. When Dean didn't answer him he nudged him with his elbow. "Hey…"
"What?" Dean looked over at him.
"You seem like you're lost in thought….What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing." Dean swallowed hard as he tried to forget the memory of that night so long ago. His brother could have died that night and it would have been his fault. He knew it was just childish brotherly fighting but the memory of it still haunted him. "Why don't we head back to the motel, there's nothing we can do here." He said as he sped away from the scene.
Outside the motel later that night
Tina looked over her shoulder as she walked toward the motel room trying to make sure no one had followed her from the bar. She had stopped at the few motels in the area till she finally found the one that the brothers were staying at. With one last look over her shoulder she knocked on the door.
Sam gave Dean a questioning look as he got up from the table where he had his computer opened up in front of him. Dean shrugged his shoulders not knowing either who it might be. Both brothers took their guns out as Sam walked toward a window and pulled back the curtain. He quickly hid his gun in a chest drawer when he saw Tina standing out on the porch.
"Hi." He said as he opened the door then stood back and let her enter.
"Hi." She smiled back at him as she walked into the room.
Sam went out onto the porch and looked around but never saw Kevin who had followed Tina hiding behind a large bush.
Dean quickly pushed his gun under the pillow as he stood up and motioned her to a chair.
"Aren't you taking a chance coming out here?"
"Kevin owns a lot of people in this town but he doesn't own me, he only thinks he does." She smiled at Dean then stuck out her hand. "We were never introduced…I'm Tina….Tina Watkins."
"I'm Dean…"Dean nodded toward Sam. "…he's Sam. What brings you out here?"
"You said if I told you the legend and what I know about it you'd let me have a small part at the end of the movie you're working on."
"We'll talk to the producers and put in a good word for you." Sam hated lying to the girl but he knew it was probably the only way to get her to talk.
"Okay….."She hesitated for a few seconds then began. "I knew Melody, she was a regular at Mallory's."
"Did you know her well?"
"As well as any girl did, she was more friendly with the men."
"Was she Kevin's girlfriend?"
"He seemed to think so but she was everybody's girlfriend. She was pretty much the town whore."
Sam glanced over at Dean then looked at Tina.
"We talked to her mother she said she was a little wild but a good girl."
"That's what her mother wanted to believe, but Melody rebelled after her daddy left. You see her mother was very strict with her religious beliefs and Melody didn't want anything to do with that."
"What do you know about the day she died and about the legend?"
"Well…Melody was at the bar that night with Kevin and got into a bad argument. He stormed out of the bar but she stayed there. About an hour or so later she got a phone call and left. We never saw her again."
"Did she seem upset or angry when she left?"
"She seemed pretty pissed off."
"Then what happened?" Dean asked.
"Nothing….We heard the next day that she had gone out onto the ice and fallen through."
"The legend…how did it get started?"
"People driving by the lake claim they sometimes see her standing next to it….then people started falling through the ice and dying."
"Did you know any of the victims?"
"All of them….They were all guys that hung out at Mallory's."
