Hey guys! I hope that you're enjoying the case so far! I wanted to thank you all who reviewed the last chapter and gave me suggestions, they were well needed and I am taking them into consideration. A few people did ask questions, so I'm going to wait until the bottom of this chapter to answer them. Until then, please enjoy the chapter!

*Disclaimer*
I do not own anything in the Supernatural universe, only Sarah.
I followed my map around the right side of the courtyard, and veered off into the forest when I found the path to the girls' cabins. My small duffle bag swung behind me; before starting to the cabin the boys and I had returned to the Impala to grab a few necessities.
After a short trek through the woods, I came upon two rows of cabins and a small bath house off to the right side. Glancing at the numbers next to the doors, I made my way to the back row where Cabin 8 was. I climbed up a short set of steps and opened a screen door to get into the cabin.
Inside, I was met with the sight of many middle and high school girls who were either lying on bunk beds or sitting in a small commons at the front of the cabin. Some looked up at me when I entered, but others didn't seem to notice me at all, and continued to have conversations with each other. I smiled at the ones who had their eyes fixed on me. Another older girl stood up from a chair in the sitting area and made her way over to me. She had long dark hair and brown eyes, and stood a little shorter than me.
"Hey," She said, "What can I do for you?"
"My name's Sarah," I said, "I'm filling in as counselor for a few days,"
Her grin widened. "Awesome!" She mused, and then turned to face the rest of the cabin. "Girls, listen up!" She called, and all conversations died down, "This is Sarah, she's our new big sister for a bit!" The girl turned back to me, her hand extended. I took it and she gave a firm shake. "I'm Blair, I'm the cabin counselor." She introduced.
"Nice to meet you," I said, and then Blair directed me over to the sitting area. I set my duffel bag down next to me as I sat down on a big recliner, the worn fabric seeming to swallow me. Blair sat on another chair next to me, turning to grab a candy bar that she had set down in the chair when she walked over to meet me. She took a bite, and then glanced at her watch.
"Well, we have to leave for lunch in a few minutes, but there's still a little more time to get to know each other," She said, smiling. "So Sarah, what brings you here?"
"Actually, I heard about the accident and wanted to volunteer help." I explained, surprised that I didn't have to lie about it for once.
Blair's face fell. "Yeah, it was pretty bad." She said, "Mark and Tammy were good people."
"I'd say that they were." I stated. "It's a shame the way they went too. I heard that they were pulled into the pool by something. But that can't be possible, can it?"
Blair didn't respond for a second, but then shook her head. "No, there's no way. They must have fallen in on accident."
"But weren't they both licensed lifeguards?" I asked, wondering why she would say something like that.
"Yeah, but sea monsters in a pool?" She asked, shaking her head. "That's outrageous. But you know what's worse?" She asked in a quieter voice.
"What?" I inquired, and she leaned forward in her seat. I did the same.
"I heard that there was something going on between the two on them before they died." She explained, and I tilted my head in confusion. She continued, explaining, "Mark already had a girlfriend at the time."
I leaned back in my chair, contemplating. Had the thing that attacked the counselors done it because they were unfaithful?
"Here," Blair said, changing the subject. She stood up. "Let me show you where your bed is." I struggled to pull myself out of the large recliner, and then followed her to the back of the cabin, swerving to avoid campers and crowded bunk beds alike.
Blair led me to two twin beds pushed up against the wall. One already had a colorful quilt thrown over it, but the other bed was bare aside from a pillow and a folded quilt and sheet set at the end of the bed. I assumed that it was mine for the next few days. Above the bed was a small shelf, upon which was stacked a few towels and washcloths.
I went over to the bed and slung my bag off of my shoulder. I pushed my duffel underneath the frame and started to make the bed, looking up at Blair as she laid back on her's. She had pulled out a magazine of sorts and was flipping through the pages at a rather fast pace. I glanced at the front cover, thinking I saw some kind of sea creature, but then Blair folded the magazine back on itself and I turned my focus back to the bed in front of me. When I was done I sat down on the bed, propping my feet up on the rather hard mattress.
We sat in silence until Blair looked down at her watch again and suddenly jumped up.
"Time for lunch!" She called throughout the cabin.
I got my tray from the food line in the Mess Hall and made my way over to the counselors table on the far side of the room, where Dean was already sitting with a tray full of food. I placed myself next to him.
"You know, this camp food is amazing," He pointed out, twirling a bite of spaghetti around his fork.
"Yeah," I said, "I went to camp one year when I was younger, and that's one of the things I remember most about it."
As I was going for my first bite, Sam walked over and sat down opposite us.
"How're you liking the kitchen Sandra Lee?" Dean asked, and Sam shook his head.
"It's actually not so bad," He pointed out. "I'm on break right now. What about you two?"
"I get to help out with the organized games." Dean said, seemingly proud that he remembered the correct term.
"So you get to push little kids around?" I corrected. Dean just shrugged, and Sam chuckled in agreement. I turned to him. "I'm in charge of about twenty girls in my cabin," I said, "but I don't think it'll be too hard to handle."
"Did you find anything out about the case?" Sam asked more quietly. I remembered what Blair had told me back in the cabin.
"The other counselor in my cabin said that she thought the two were together while Mark already had a girlfriend." I explained. "You think it might be going after people who have secrets?"
"Maybe," Sam said.
"You think that maybe they're just putting hallucinogenics in the food?" Dean asked, warily eyeing his tray.
"I don't know," Sam said, "but I don't want to leave until whatever it is has been sorted out."
A/N: So, what did you think? Please review, favorite and follow! Also, I'll ask again, if you have a case that you want to see, please tell me!
Now for the questions! From now on, if I do have any questions (or reviews that I feel need to be answered of given an explanation) in the reviews, I'll address them at the bottom of the next published chapter.
Fire and Ash:
Good chapter! I hope you update soon. CX
(P.S. I was just wondering if Adam's gonna be in it, or is Sarah his replacement? And are you gonna continue making up cases, or will it start to follow the timeline of Supernatural?)
-Adam is not going to be in this story, but Sarah isn't his replacement either. Honestly, I'm only on season four of the series, so I haven't even met Adam yet. But he never really had a part that related to the main plot of the story, so I didn't intend on adding him in. Sorry if that's a disappointment. I will continue creating the cases for this story; as I said before, I haven't watched the whole series yet so I feel that I wouldn't be able to depict it accurately. Plus I'm just a lazy bum who doesn't want to go back through and watch the entire series again to write it out. I also feel that when a story is written like this it gives more originality to the story overall, instead of just adding to an existing story line. I hope I answered your question!
caz21:
What about nightmare case. Sarah could have a nightmare. A nightmare is believed to be an evil spirit that can suffocate or haunt people during sleep. I just looked it up. Great story by the way.
-You probably won't believe this, but I actually have something along the lines of this planned as another case in the story already. It's not exactly like this, I have to warn you, but it does kind of relate to another case. I won't give out any specific details though, you'll have to find out yourself! And thank you for asking!
Other than that, I believe that's all for this week! Thank you for reading, and I'll see you Monday!
