First of all, I wanna start by thanking wildflower1014 for her reviews; reviews always seem to cheer up my day, chapter I'm going back to Sam again, this is the way I generally like to write, one Dean centered chapter, then one Sam centered then dean again then sam and so on,at first I reall didn't have an Idea for this chapter and I just began to write what I thought should happen after the last sam chapter, but once Istarted, the ideas just wouldn't stop flowing so I'm hoping for a kind of big story arc, probably three or four chapters, hope you like it. this time the crossovers are, "Bloody Valentine" since I introduced Tom Hanniger a couple of chapters ago, "Smallville" since Chloe is going to start helping Sam out every once in a while, "Heroes" because Angela Petrelli makes another surprise visit, and the main crossover is with a show called "Burn Notice" the show is about a spy who gets burned (not literally, more like black listed) and now has to do small jobs helping people to make a living and find out who burned him, with the help of his exgirlfriend Fiona, and his friend Sam Axe.
Note: I hate having so many Sams in the story, sorry if it gets confusing, normally I use lastnames to explain who's who, and when they're not together, I use the last name once then just call them Sam, I hope you don't get confused so you can better enjoy the story.
"So you actually do this?" Tom asked as he loaded a gun, "Hunt this things for a living?"
"Yeah" Sam answered calmly as he too prepared his weapon.
"Why?"
"Because someone has to" Ruby answered as she opened the hotel door and stepped outside, followed by the two brothers, "The moon's up, the beast will start hunting any time now"
"We know who it is, why not just go face him before he turns?"
"Because we need to be sure it is him, and even if it is, who'd you rather shoot in cold blood? A 58 year old farmer or a hungry werewolf trying to kill you?"
"We should hurry" Ruby interrupted, "before he get's the chance to kill anyone else…or worse"
"Worse?"
"Infect them" Sam answered calmly. The three of them waited behind an old fence, before them a large farmhouse stood in the middle of a clearing, "The lights are still on, he won't turn until he's asleep"
"Lights on don't mean he's not turning already" Ruby started walking up to the house.
"Ruby wait! If he's turned he'll smell you the second you…" suddenly the door flew open as a large creature covered in black fur ran towards the red demon, "Watch out!" Sam tackled Ruby just as the creature flew over their heads, "You ok?"
"Yeah, thanks"
"Oh no, Tom!"
"Bang!!!"
The creature fell to the ground as Tom's hands shivered, Sam ran to his brother's side to see if he was alright while Ruby examined the creature, "Nice aim, right in the heart"
"I killed it?" Tom asked surprised.
"Yes you did, look like you really are a Winchester"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
Sam separated himself from Tom and Ruby who were setting fire to the corps and withdrew his cellphone.
"Watchtower" a voice answered on the other side of the line.
"Chloe it's me"
"Hey Sam, how'd it go with the werewolf"
"Great, we've just finished"
"And you're asking to see if I've found anything else?"
"Yeah"
"Don't you ever rest?"
"Not really, and with your help in finding and filtering cases, our efficiency has grown exponentially"
"Tell me about it, it's been only a month and you and your Scooby gang have already taken down three ghosts, a demon, a vampire nest and now a werewolf, you're going to wear yourself out"
"We're all right"
"Ok, if you insist, I found a few unusual things going on in Miami
"Miami? I thought I told you…"
"No big cities, I know, but there's something strange going on, and I think you should check it out"
"How strange?"
"I'll send you the articles so you can decide for yourself"
"Yeah, ok I got them" Sam said as he looked over the articles in his cell phone.
"What do you think?"
"Yeah, I guess we'll go check it out" Sam sighed as he looked over to where Tom was sitting on the hood of the impala staring at the fire, "There's one more thing"
"Yeah, what is it?"
"I need you to investigate something"
"That's what I'm here for"
"It's Tom, I know he entered that mental institution voluntarily, but he won't tell me why, and recently he's been waking up in the middle of the night tormented by nightmares"
"Are you sure this is how you wanna find out? Why not try asking him?"
"I have, but every time I do he evades the question, if he's in trouble, or if some thing's hunting him, I need to know what"
"The problem is, the thing hunting him may not be what you usually hunt, we all have our personal demons Sam, ones we must face alone"
"Yeah, but even though we have to face them alone, we always need help, even if it is just a shoulder to lean on every once in a while"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
Sam drove silently while Tom stared out the window and Ruby sat quietly in the back seat, "So, Dean my twin brother, what was he like?" Tom broke the silence.
"What?"
"You told me about his deal, and that he was sent to hell, but aside from that, you never speak much of him"
"Yeah, I guess I feel guilty, it was my fault he made the deal in the first place after all"
"I'm sorry, if you don't wanna…"
"It's alright, I guess if I found out I had a twin brother I'd like to know about him too, so? What do you wanna know?"
"Well, what was he like?"
"He was great, I mean he was brave, strong, when it came to hunting the guy was always right, I mean sometimes he could be a real jerk, but he was my older brother, it came with the territory; most of the time he was the best brother ever"
"Sounds like you two were pretty close"
"Close?" Ruby laughed, "If they'd been any closer it'd be taboo"
Sam stared at her through the rear view mirror then returned his eyesight to the road, "Our father wasn't really there for us, so Dean practically raised me on his own"
"I see"
"How about you? What was your childhood like? I bet it was better than being on the road all the time, sleeping in motel rooms and handling guns at the age of eight"
"You'd think so" Tom said as he turned to look outside the window, "it was pretty good at first, my parents, they weren't that bad, treated me well, made sure I had everything I needed, but then…"
"What happened?"
"I started working in the family business"
"What was that?"
Tom closed his eyes and laid back his head, "Never mind, it doesn't matter now, it's all in the past"
"Guy's a natural storyteller" Ruby rolled her eyes.
Sam looked at his brother trying to forget painful memories then at Ruby filing her nails in the backseat then back out to the road, soon the only sounds were that of the tires rolling and the mosquitoes smashing on the windshield.

"My name is Michael Westen, I used to be a spy until I was burned. When you're burned, you've got nothing; No cash, no credit, no job history. You're stuck in whatever city they decide to dump you in; in my case, Miami. You rely on any one that's still talking to you; Fiona, a trigger happy ex-girlfriend, Sam Axe, a friend who's informing on me to the FBI, and when I'm desperate enough, Family. Bottom line is, until you find out who burned you, you're not going anywhere. And so, I do whatever work comes my way, today was no different."
Michael stepped in to his apartment juggling between the keys, the door, and a bag of groceries.
"Hello Michael"
Michael turned around surprised, "Why do I bother to put in new locks every few days if everyone just keeps getting in?"
"Maybe you should get a dog?" an elder woman said calmly while Michael placed the groceries in the fridge.
"So…are you going to tell me why you're here?"
"I need your help Michael"
"My help?" he laughed, "and why would I help the strange woman who broke into y apartment?"
"Money's no problem if that's what you want, but I can also help you find out who burned you, I can give you a name"
"I'm listening" Michael said as he opened a yogurt.
"I need you to find a boy, a very special young boy" the woman handed him a photograph.
"What's the boy's name?"
"Franklin"
"And what are you his grandmother?"
"Just someone looking out for him"
"And does the kind soul have a name?"
"Angela, Angela Petrelli"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"What was so important that we had to come all the way to Miami?" Ruby asked as she leaned on the car, "not that I mind, this body was beginning to get a little pale"
"A missing child" Sam answered.
"A child?" Ruby stared at him, "all this way, and we're here to look for a child?"
"A boy to be precise" Sam opened his cell phone and showed him a picture of him, "he was kidnapped and his parents were slaughtered to do so"
"Could still be just regular humans"
"Their brains were taken out of their skulls"
"That must of hurt" Tom said as he made a face while staring at the crime scene pictures Chloe had sent them.
"Well, what kind of creature sucks people's brains out?"
"I was hoping you'd know" Sam answered, "Guess we're going to have to do some research"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"I've been looking over the news articles on this one, whoever kidnapped the kid was a mean one" Sam Axe said as he threw the articles on the table, "The parent's brains were taken from their skulls, are you sure you wanna get involved in this buddy? If the kidnapper's willing to do this then there's no doubt he's a psycho, I doubt the kid's even still alive"
"I have no choice Sam, this woman can help me put my life back the way it was"
"And are you sure you want to do that Michael?"
"We've been over this Fiona, besides, if the boy's still alive he needs our help" He handed Fi the picture of the boy, "How do you turn your back on that"
"You don't" she answered as she handed the picture to Sam.
"If we're going to do this, we're going to have to start from scratch" Sam said as he picked up the articles, "Parents were killed so I doubt the kidnapper wants a ransom"
"Paper says there are no other known family members"
"Or friends, which means the family was probably in hiding"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"But hiding from who?" Ruby asked Sam who was still examining the articles.
"That's the problem, "Fuentes", last names latin, probably…"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"Cuban" Sam Axe said then took a sip from his drink.
"Were they here illegally?" Fiona asked.
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"I doubt it, the paper doesn't mention anything, but I doubt they'd hide it" Sam looked up at a blonde waitress, excuse me, can I get another beer, please!"
"Sure thing" the waitress smiled.
"What about other similar cases around the area?" Tom asked, "did chloe find anything else, maybe it's a…"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"Child smugglers? I doubt it, those things usually smuggle girls into the country, not boys out of it" Sam replied to Fiona's comment.
"We won't get anywhere here guessing, we're going to have to…"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"…go investigate the house, see if we can find anything…"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"…the police missed" Michael raised his hand as a blonde waitress walked past them, "Can we get the check please"
"I'll bring it right over sir, let me just take this to the other table" the girl pointed at the beer on her tray and sped away"
"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""
"Here you are sir" the waitress placed the beer in front of Sam, "can I get you anything else?"
"Yeah, the check, please"
Ok, I know I cut the chapter when it was just about to get interesting, but look at the brightside, at least now you have something to look forward to ; )
