Chapter 7:

Previously: Blonde, "Bobby, I don't need to remind you that we only lie when it hurts more then the truth, but on this occasion the truth well that hurts, doesn't it. I really hope you find them in time, though I think it would be much more fun for all of us, if you didn't." With that the blonde's mouth opened wide and the demon left of it's own accord, leaving Bobby with a unconscious unknown blonde and the knowledge that time was running out for Dean. You see he knew that sometimes demons do tell the truth but only when it will hurt the person more then lying would and Bobby hurt, really hurt. After dropping the blonde off at her house, Bobby parked his truck on the side of the road and wondered what to do next. It was then that his phone started ringing. A friend was calling him, he was excited and happy and wanted to know if Bobby was in for the hunt of his life.

Bobby could not believe his ears or the fact that Rufus Turner was actually willing to come out of retirement for a hunt, ok the best hunt of his life as Rufus described it, but still a hunt. His mind was still reeling half an hour after the phone call had ended and Bobby found himself at a liquor store buying a case of Johnny Walker Blue. On seconds thoughts he bought two cases, if he was going to get Rufus to agree to his plan, he would need the old recluse in a happy mood, (rare as that was). On his way back to his junkyard, Bobby called Ellen and Tamara (Remember the 7 Deadly Sins Episode). He knew he needed more then just him and Rufus and right now out of all the hunters he knew, Ellen and Tamara where the only ones who might be willing to help and then shut up about it. Bobby had decided that when he died, he was pretty sure this plan was not going to look good on his resume, but then on second thoughts it might look great, depending of course if it worked or not. Bobby shook his head, he needed a clear head for this and thinking about what might happen to him if this thing went south, was not the best thing to do, and he realized this plan could go south easily, in a number of different ways - All of them deadly to Bobby and most of them deadly to everyone who agreed (being totally out of their minds), to go along with him on it.

So when Rufus knocked on Bobby's door and after complaining about his lax security (I mean 2 dogs as Rufus put it), and after being unhappy to find Ellen already there, he was half way though his first bottle of Blue when the he heard a knock on the door and Ellen went to answer it. Rufus looked at his bottle and the accompanying case and asked Bobby, just how many people had been invited to Rufus's personal "greatest hunt of your life" hunt and then followed up with "When is Sam arriving" when Tamara walked in much to Rufus's surprise.

Bobby, "He isn't"

Rufus, "What your favorite hunters, well what's left of them, and you haven't invited him to the party. Is he taking his brother's (looking at Ellen and Tamara) end, so badly. Or is he doing something he shouldn't Bobby".

Bobby, "Rufus, what if I told you, he might already have done something and that's why I'm taking over this hunt."

Rufus, "I'd ask what he could have done that has to do with vampires, old vampires. Their no equal to Daemons, Bobby"

Bobby, "Look Rufus, You can come with us and help out in a rescue or you can be locked down in my cellar, with two cases of blue. Your Choice."

Rufus put down his glass, he would need a clear head for this, whatever this was, he thought. "Rescue, I thought we where going in to hunt down some ancient vampires or maybe your speaking of a different hunt, Bobby."

IT was now or never, Bobby thought. "Actually it's the same hunt, I've been informed."

Rufus, "Informed by who exactly?"

Bobby, "Let's just say that a mutual problem popped in while I was searching for the boys and informed me of the current location and situation of Dean and Sam". Actually, Bobby had worked the same magic that he worked to find Lillith, but he was not about to admit that to Rufus. You know mobile phones are very useful things.

Rufus, "You know where the vampires are?" Rather shocked because he had not figured out how to locate the site until after the vamps had arrived thus making a good attack plan hard to make.

Bobby, "Yes I got a area but we are not going into kill the vampires, we are going into rescue Dean and Sam. Then you can call in your other friends and say you where getting the lay of the land if you have to, but we where never there and neither where Dean or Sam - That's the deal Rufus, Take it or leave it."

Rufus, "And you trust these two to back you up on this. Bobby they could have been turned and you and I both know the only good vampire is a dead vampire, not matter what rumors are going around." said Rufus with a shake of his head.

Bobby, "What do you mean by that Rufus".

Rufus was trying to get the other two on his side by saying this hoping to weaken whatever picture of great hunters, Bobby had cooked up for Ellen and Tamara. "OK, It's just that those boys where there when Elkins got killed, they said they found a good pack of vampires and they where around for the deaths of Gordon and Kubric. Now you are asking us to help you rescue them from a nest containing it seems all 5 ancient vampires and about 50 bodyguards, not including how many where in the original nest, and leave all the vamps alive."

Now if Rufus thought that little speak was going to effect Ellen and Tamara, he was in for a big surprise. Ellen, "That's right Rufus and we are going to help." Tamara, "We owe the boys Rufus, and I will personally lock you in the cellar, though the more you talk, the less those two cases are going down with you."

Rufus looked down at the two cases and at the bottle in his hand and sighed, that girl knew where to hit. "Ok, Bobby I'm in. What's the plan" Looking at Bobby's slightly confused face, Rufus said, "Well with both Ellen and Tamara on your side, a smart man knows when he's beaten, but may I remind you I will help rescue Sam but Dean can't be rescued because he's not there. Bobby seemed to recognize true regret, when Rufus said, "I wish he was but he can't be, there is no way out of the deal he made."

Bobby ran a hand though his hair and replaced his hat, "I was informed that Sam found a way and that's why their with the vampires. We rescue them both. (Bobby sighed) Even if we have to tie Sam up and drag his along with us."

Rufus got up and got 2 more glasses. Then he sat down and poured out 4 full glasses of whiskey, motioning for the girls to sit down. "OK Bobby, what's the plan and by the way I expect another two cases at the end of this." Bobby laughed and raising his glass said "Well the plan goes as follows..."

Next: The Plan and how it works out or rather how it does not work out... hmmm ok I hope you follow me here.
