Chapter 20
After her 'date', Louann went straight to the motel they were staying. She was not surprised when she saw that her brothers weren't there 'Good' she thought 'Gives me more time to plot my revenge' she continued her thoughts and sat down on one of the chairs, in front of the laptop. She opened a Google tab and typed 'Pranks'
"Muahaha" she said and pretended to laugh evilly "This is going to be good" she said as she searched the prank ideas she found online. While she was browsing the net for ideas she saw this prank using a drink called 'Bloody Mary' "Huh…" she mumbled when she clicked the link. Except from the drink prank, the article also mentioned the urban legend of Bloody Mary. Of course that caught Louann's attention
"The game is often a test of courage and bravery, as it is said that if Bloody Mary is summoned, she would proceed to kill the summoner in an extremely violent way, such as ripping their face off, scratching their eyes out, cutting their head off, driving them insane, bringing them into the mirror with her or scratching their neck, causing serious injury or death" Louann read an extract from the article "Wait a minute" she said to herself "Scratching their eyes out?" as she remembered that the daughter who found her dad dead had said that his eyes were bleeding "Could it really be Bloody Mary?" she asked out loud. She opened another tab and typed 'Death by bleeding eyes'. She passed the medical results and after some minutes she found again the legend of Bloody Mary and one part concerning her origin caught her attention "According to this myth, an angry mob, who accused Mary of being a witch, went to Mary's camp and mysteriously found her dead body with deep scratch wounds to the face and her eyes ripped out of their sockets" she read and sighed "Really? Oh man…I hope I'm wrong"
Suddenly the door opened and her brothers entered "Aww looks who's back?" Dean said to Sam "Hey lovebird" he said and Louann stared at him
"Don't push it" she said and her twin laughed "Where were you anyway? Did my dirty deeds came in handy?" she said and sighed dramatically
"You just went out with the guy" Sam commented and shook his head "And yeah we find out that we really have a case here"
"We went and talked to Shoemakers daughter and her hot friend Charlie" Dean started saying with a grin on his face. When he saw that his sister wasn't interested in that information he continued "Guess what we are dealing here?" Dean asked
"Bloody Mary?"
"Wrong! It's Bloody M- how the hell did you know that?" Dean asked disappointed
"It was really a guess. I searched the bleeding eyes thing online and came across with the Bloody Mary legend" Louann said and shrugged
"Well your guess is right" Sam said "The younger sister said they were playing the game and said 'Bloody Mary' in front of the mirror"
"Then why did the father died?" she asked
"We don't know" Dean answered
"We have to go the library. It will be very hard. I mean, there's like 50 versions of who she actually is. One story says she's a witch, another says she's a mutilated bride, there's a lot more" Sam explained
"Oh…awesome" Louann said "So…to the library?" she said and Dean groaned
"This sucks"
The day at the library turned out to be extremely hard as the computers were down and that made impossible to find anything related to their case. The only thing they found was as Dean said 'a new level of frustration'. Later that day Charlie called them and said that they found her friend Jill dead. Her eyes gone. And on top of that she had said 'Bloody Mary' three times in front of the mirror. So the next thing they did was to visit Jill's' house in hope to find anything. And they did
Sam was in the bathroom filming around the mirror with his camera when he suddenly stopped as he saw trickles of something running out from behind the mirror. He scanned the back of the mirror with a black light and saw a handprint and the words 'Gary Bryman'. As it turned out Jill killed Gary in a hit and run accident and never told anyone and Shoemaker killed his wife (they found behind the mirror a handprint and her name behind the mirror)
So the pattern was obvious now. If you had a secret and someone died, Mary came after you. Sam, Dean and Louann managed to find who Bloody Mary was. Her name was Mary Worthington. She was killed in front of a mirror, brutally
After they paid visit to the detective that was in charge with the case of Mary's death, they were determined to find the mirror
"So?" Dean asked his brother after he hung up the phone
"So that was Mary's brother. The mirror was in the family for years, until he sold it in a store in Toledo"
"Awesome" Louann commented "So wherever the mirror goes, that's where Mary goes?"
"Basically yeah" Sam replied
"Isn't there an old superstition that says mirrors can capture spirits?" Dean said and Louann stared at him "Wow Dean I'm impressed you know that"
"Ha ha…shut up" he said smirking "So Mary dies in front of a mirror, and it draws in her spirit" Dean continued
"Yea I guess" Sam said shrugging
"Have you noticed that you use 'so' a lot?" Louann asked Dean with raised eyebrows. Sam chuckled
"So?" Dean asked not noticing that he said it again. Louann stared at him "Uh…shut uuup" he said whiney. At that moment Sam's phone rang. It was Charlie
"Hello?" he answers the phone and he hears how upset she is "Charlie? We are on our way" he said and hang up
"What happened?" Dean and Louann asked
"She was screaming into the phone. What I got was 'Bloody Mary' and 'she's after me'"
"Okay let's go then" Dean said and Louann stopped them "Wait…you go to Charlie and I'm going to find out the store that has the mirror"
"Good idea. Let's go"
Apparently Charlie had a secret of her own. A boyfriend that committed suicide. Louann called them half an hour later to inform the brothers on the location of the mirror. It wasn't that hard to track down. The mirror was in a store called Estate Antiques. While Louann stayed in the motel room, Sam and Dean went to the store
"You know, I've been thinking. It might not be enough to just smash that mirror" Sam said hesitantly "Why? What do you mean?" Dean asked, glancing at Sam and then back at the road
"Well Mary's hard to pin down, right? I mean she moves around from mirror to mirror so who's to say that she's not just gonna keep hiding in them forever? So maybe we should try to pin her down, you know, summon her to her mirror and then smash it"
"You know what, that's it" Dean said and pulled the car over "This is about Jessica, isn't it? You think that's your dirty little secret that you killed her somehow? SAM, this has got to stop, man. I mean, the nightmares and calling her name out in the middle of the night—it's gonna kill you. Now listen to me—It wasn't your fault. If you wanna blame something, then blame the thing that killed her. Or hell, why don't you take a swing at me? I mean I'm the one that dragged you away from her in the first place"
"I don't blame you Dean"
"Well you shouldn't blame yourself, because there's nothing you could've done" Dean said and Sam looked out of the window "I could have warned her"
"What do you mean?"
"Well it wouldn't really be a secret if I told you, would it?"
After some scooping around the boys found the mirror "You're sure?" Dean asked for what seemed the 50th time
"Yes" Sam answered confidently as he gripped the crowbar tight "Bloody Mary…Bloody Mary" Sam said and shared a look with Dean "Bloody Mary"
Suddenly a light comes through the store "I'm going to check it out. Be careful and smash anything that moves" Dean warned Sam and walked away. Sam saw Mary with the corner of his eye in a different mirror "Come on…come to this one"
She did
As it turned out, the light was a passing police car. Dean was more than happy to see the car disappearing away from the store. He went to grab his phone from his pocket to call Louann but he realized that he must have forgotten it back in the motel room. He quickly returned to where his little brother was. He could clearly hear Sam's voice "You never told her the truth—who you really were. But it's more than that, isn't it? Those nightmares you've been having of Jessica dying, screaming, burning—You had them for days before she died. Didn't you! You were so desperate to ignore them, to believe they were just dreams. How could you ignore them like that? How could you leave her alone to die! You dreamt it would happen!" he heard Sam say. But it wasn't Sam. It was his reflection. His brother had kneeled down and his eyes were bleeding. With a quick motion Dean grabbed the crowbar and smashed the mirror
"Sam? Sammy?"
"It's Sam"
"Whatever…are you okay?"
"Peachy" Sam said as Dean helped him stand up. They begin to walk out when suddenly Mary comes out of the mirror. She walks towards them and the brother's fall to the ground, their eyes bleeding. Dean reaches up and pulls a mirror that was next to him. Mary is forced to see her reflection "You killed them! All those people! You killed them!" her reflection said and Mary starts chocking to death. Soon enough she melted into a pile of blood
Dean threw the mirror on the ground and broke into thousands of pieces "Now it's over" Dean said while wiping some blood from his face
"Glad to hear that" Sam said and chuckled lightly. Dean sighed "Hey Sam?"
"Yeah?"
"I heard it all" Dean said and Sam paled "I don't understand"
"Come on Sam!" Dean yelled and stood up "Don't play dump with me! You dreamed about Jessica's death? What the hell does that mean?"
Sam slowly stood up and stared at Dean "I dreamed about Jessica dying, days before it happen"
"So what? You are a psychic?" Dean asked "Don't answer that. Why didn't you tell me?"
"I was…I don't know!"
"I'm your brother Sam! You can't keep things like this to yourself!" Dean said and began to walk out of the store. Sam followed him "Were you ever going to tell me?"
Sam didn't answer
"Of course. Bye Sam"
"Where are you going?" Sam yelled
"For a drive to clear my head. You can walk to our motel" Dean said and drove away
Louann was anxiously sitting on the bed. She didn't agree with Sam's stupid plan. 'Summoning Bloody Mary…what the hell was he thinking?' she thought and sighed. She just hoped he was alright. Suddenly she heard a phone ringing. She couldn't be hers since it broke today. She got up and saw that on the table was Dean's phone. She grabbed it and saw the caller 'Dad calling' she read and paled. What was she supposed to do? Answer it? Not answer it? She decided to answer it
She pressed the button and put the phone to her ear but she didn't spoke
"Dean?" the voice at the other end asked. Oh it was John Winchester alright
"Close enough" she answered with a shaky voice
"Who the hell are you? Where is my son?"
"Dean is out in a hunt…with Sam"
Silence "How do you know that?" he asked
"Because I'm travelling with them"
"Look I don't care how much they pay you, that doesn't give you any right to answer my SONS PHONE!" he yelled into the phone and Louann laughed
"They don't pay me John"
"How do you know my name?" John asked
"I believe that every daughter knows hers fathers name" Louann said and once again silence filled the line
"What?"
"Hey dad"
"You shut your mouth NOW!" John yelled
"Oh I'm sorry of course you wouldn't recognize my voice. Maybe if I say this 'Why are you leaving me here? I want to go home with you! With Sam and Dean!" Louann quoted her 7-year old self
"L-Louann?" John said with shaky voice as realization hit him
"Glad to hear that you remember my name"
"How can I forget?"
"I don't know…you left me to rot in that god forsaken family" Louann said raising her voice
"You don't understand. I did it to protect you! He said that you would be safe!"
"WHO?" Louann yelled. She was on the verge of tears
"I can't tell you. I'm sorry baby-girl" John said 'Is he crying?' Louann thought
"You've lost the right to call me that"
"I deserve that. I'm so sorry Louann" he said and Louann didn't say anything. She was trying to control her emotions "I want to see you"
"What? No!" Louann said quickly
"Please Louann. Give me a chance to explain myself"
"Uh- I don't know"
"There is a probable case in St. Louis. Tell your brothers to go there. I'll be sitting at the first diner you see when you enter the town at three o'clock. If you won't show up I understand" John explained "Don't tell your brothers. Please" he said and hung up leaving Louann puzzled
Uh oh! What is Louann going to do? Well that I'll leave it up to you! Do you want Louann to go and meet with John?
