Chapter 52

Sam and Dean finally find back the Impala nicely parked on a corner of a side road. "Thank God! I'm sorry, Baby. I'll never leave you again." Dean talking to his car again. "At least, he left the keys in it." He continues to Sam.

"Yeah, real Samaritan, this guy..."

"It looks he can't work his mojo by twitching his nose. He's gotta use verbal commands."

"The old man had just gotten off his cell phone when he stepped in front of that bus. Andy must have called or something." Sam figures out.

"I don't know, maybe... I don't know if he is really our guy."

"What?"

"He doesn't seem like the stone-cold-killer type, that's what I mean."

"Either way, how are we gonna track this guy down?"

"Not a problem..." Dean suddenly smirks, having an idea.

.

They go back to Andy's van. "Let's have a look inside" Dean picking the lock of the back door.

The inside of the van is transformed into a kitsch bedroom, a disco ball hanging on the ceiling, a rug representing a lay down tiger covering one of the flanks. On the bed, they find a huge water pipe and some books.

"Not exactly a serial killer's lair, huh?... No clown paintings on the walls or scissors stuck in victims photos..." Dean says.

"Hegel, Kant, Wittgenstein... That's some pretty heavy reading, Dean."

Suddenly Andy appears at the corner of the street in front of them. Dean quickly closes the door and they run back to their car.

.

They follow him to another house, staying behind a hedge. Dean finishes the hamburger he bought on the 7/11 at the corner, throwing the wrapping on the back seat. "You know, sometimes, I'd love to just sit down and eat something I didn't have to microwave at a mini-mart."

"Ask Eli, I'm sure she will be delighted to cook you some nice home-made recipes." Sam mocks him, going through some papers from the file.

"Very funny... I dig your sense of humor, bro!"

"What I don't get is the motive. I mean, the doctor was clean. Why would Andy waste him?"

"If it was Andy..." Dean softly remarks.

"Dude, enough... The guy was mind-controlled in front of a bus. Andy just happens to have the power of mind control. You do the Math."

"I still don't think he's got it in him, that's all."

A sudden knock on the roof makes them both jump in surprise. "Hey! You think I haven't seen you two?... Why are you following me?" Andy screams.

"We are lawyers. A relative of yours has passed..." Sam starts to explain.

"Tell the truth..." He approaches the window, bending to see both bothers in the eyes.

"That's what I'm..." Sam smiles.

"We hunt Demons." Dean cuts, his brother looking at him in a WTH face. "Demons, spirits... Things your worst nightmares wouldn't touch. Sam here is my brother. And we have another partner called Eli."

"Shut up, Dean!..."

"I'm trying... Sam is a psychic, like you... Well not really like you... Eli can mind traveling for example... That's why our relationship is so complicated... I have troubles to talk about it with her, because I don't how... I already hurt her many times... And I feel terrible about it… I'm kind of a womanizer too, you see... Which doesn't help… So, on the part why are we following you... Sam thinks you're a murderer. And he's afraid they both can be too, because all the kids like you are all part of something terrible. I hope the hell he's wrong, but I'm starting to get scared he might be right!" He explains in one breath, proud of himself when he finishes.

"Okay, you know what? Just leave me alone..." Andy says.

"Okay..." Dean replies, already starting the engine. Sam goes out of the car and follows Andy on the side-walk.

"What are you doing? Look, I said leave me alone. Get out of here. Just start driving and never stop!" Andy commands him.

Sam just nods 'no'. "Your thing doesn't seem to work on me, Andy."

"What?"

"You can make people do things. You can tell them what to think." Sam explains, asking his brother to stay back with a movement of his hand.

"Look, that's crazy..." Andy tries to defend himself.

"It all started about a year ago, didn't it? After you turned 22. Little stuff at first. Then you got better at controlling it." Sam explains.

"How do you know all this?"

"Same thing happened to me... And to my friend Eli... Our mums that died in a fire, the abilities that showed up like this... It seems, we're all connected to each other."

"Just get out of here..." Andy starting to lose control, having a hard time to believe all what Sam is telling him.

"Why did you tell the doctor to walk in front of a bus?"

"What?"

.

All at once, Sam has another violent headache. He kneels on the floor. Dean is rushing out of the car.

"What's happening to him?... I didn't do anything..." Andy asks worried.

"I know..." Dean grabbing his brother by the shoulders. "Sammy?... What are you seeing?"

"A woman burning alive... A gas station. She's gonna kill herself..." Sam explains out of breath.

"What's he mean 'going to'?"

"Shut up!" Dean yells at Andy, putting his brother back to his feet.

"She got a call on her cell..." Sam still wincing from the pain.

"When?"

"Dunno... We need to keep an eye on him, so he can't do it..."

"I didn't hurt anybody..." Andy pleads.

"Yeah! Not yet..." Sam threatens him. At that moment a fire-truck, it siren howling is passing by on the Main street. "Dean, you go check on that. I'll stay here with him."
