Chapter 4
Sam and Dean were at the public library the following morning looking at things that would have provoked the recent fires set to two houses so far.
"Hey Sam did you find anything?" Dean asked with a sigh that said he was annoyed "Because I sure as hell didn't."
"I think I did look at this about five years ago there was a string of fires set to four houses killing everyone inside. It is like that for thirty years always four houses every five years." Sam gave in reply to his brother's question.
"Interesting, so what happened thirty years ago that made this happen?"
"I am not sure, maybe some of the locals know."
"I know…" a voice said behind the brothers. They turned around and saw that Abby was standing there. "At least I think I do."
"What are you doing here Abby? You should be at home resting." Sam said with a concerned look on his face.
"Yeah right you sound like mom. I am tired of resting. Mom says I am like Dean and Uncle John stubborn to the point that I will do anything even if I am sick just to prove them wrong." She said this with a smile "Mom hates that."
"Hey I'm not like that." Dean stated
"Ah dude yeah ya are." Sam replied.
"Shut-up Sammy" Dean said to his brother then turned to his cousin "what do you think this is Abby?"
"We can't discuss this here too many people to overhear and many people don't like to hear about this. It is just too weird to think about for them. They get mad if anyone discusses it."
"So where should we go then." Sam asked.
"I have a place follow me."
The brothers got up and followed Abby out of the library.
The trio walked to the Impala that was parked in front of the library. "Let me drive it will be faster this that way."
Dean hesitated before handing over the keys he didn't like letting other people drive the Impala, it was his baby.
"Thanks Dean, don't worry I am a careful drive. Ask mom she complains because she says I am too cautious of a driver. So you have nothing to worry about." Abby said as she looked at Dean's face which was full of worry over his car.
"I am not worried about anything." Dean replied getting into the passenger seat. Abby and Sam looked at either and smiled knowing that Dean was lying.
Abby drove carefully to the woods having Dean complain more than once about how she was driving too cautiously. Abby just gave a smile whenever he did this.
They finally arrived at the place where Abby wanted to go. They got out of the car and walked a short way into the woods finding a tree with planks of wood nailed in to make a ladder up to a tree house.
"I remember this place we built it like eleven years ago when we stayed with you guys" Sam said with a small chuckle.
"I know Susan and I would come here when one of us was upset so that we could talk." Abby replied as she began to climb up the ladder. Sam and Dean followed her.
"So now can we talk?" Dean asked "What happened thirty years ago?"
"Well it all happened with a Guy named Stuart Little…" Abby began.
