Sam awoke early the next day and dressed quietly to go search in the woods for the vampires' hide out.

"Dean! Get Up!" He ordered.

"Five minutes." Dean groaned sleepily and rolled over. Sam sighed, five minutes meant at least two more hours.

"Fine." He muttered grabbing the keys and leaving him alone.

When Dean awoke, two and a half hours later, he didn't notice anything different. He dressed and shaved before seeing a note in place of his keys.

Took car, checking for vamps. Must tell imposter, I sure as hell don't taste good.

Dean was horrified, as he walked out, muttering "He didn't…He didn't…" Dean looked around at the parking lot "He took my CAR!"


By the time Dean woke up, Sam had already crossed the creek and had begun searching for a cave. He found one, but instead of staking vampires he spooked a bunch of raccoons and had the scratches to prove it. He was about to give up when he reached a ravine. He scaled down the muddy slope looking for entrances.

His patience was rewarded when he found a cave. Sam started down the dark tunnel creeping carefully as to not make a sound. The tunnel expanded into a small room.

Sleeping vamps covered the floor, and to his astonishment, all of them were girls. With all of them sleeping so packed, it looked like an orgy.

"Dean would've loved this." Sam whispered. Finally he saw Talia, and like in his vision, she was chained to the wall. She was a great deal paler than in the pictures, but she still wasn't the poster girl for Elmer's Glue. He picked his way carefully across the floor.

Her eyes were closed and for a brief moment he was scared that he'd come too late.

"Talia?"

Her eyes fluttered open and she smiled weakly.

"You're not here to kill me, are you?" Her breathing was raspy and that came off kinda weird.

'Vampires breathe?' he thoughtshaking his head in responseand unlocked the chains with keys on the wall nearby. Talia stood unsteadily when he freed her.

"Can you go outside?" Sam asked. She nodded slowly and he supported her until they were safe outside.

She sat down and sighed and Sam followed.

"Tell me what happened."

"Morgan dared me to swim the creek and I saw Dan, he chased me and changed me. Until then I believed vampires were just myth, now that I'm part one, I guess there's no other choice but to believe." She explained.

"Part?" He asked.

"Until you make a kill you're…um…an untainted vampire. I don't have blood lust." She explained what she had learned in the cave.

"Well that's good." Sam said as he helped her back up and led her towards the car.

"There are a couple more things I don't understand." He said

She smiled "That makes two of us."

They were back to the car before Talia's breathing was normal.

"I didn't know vampires breathed."

"Old habits die hard." She said laughing slightly.

"Who was it that really killed your friend?" Sam asked.

"I don't know her. She was blonde. Extremely crazy…Which are you?" She asked in return.

"Which?"

"She said Sammy and Deaney." Talia explained causing Sam to laugh.

"Deaney…that's great. I'm Sam." Sam couldn't help but laugh.

"How do you know my name?" He went on to explain what he and Dean were doing.

"…and so here I am."

Talia was silent for a moment.

"Your life sounds so exciting, nothing like how boring it is here." Sam sensed some envy in her voice.

"We're more connected than you think. I have premonitions about things connected to the thing that killed my mother." Sam told her, a little tired of having to say it for the hundredth time since he started "Road tripping" with Dean.

"I'm sorry for bringing up bad memories." She apologized, Sam shook his head

"I was only a baby." He hadn't mentioned Jessica, that hurt was too deep. His cell phone began to ring and Sam knew he was in trouble.

"Hey."

"Heya Sammy. Where's my car?" Dean's agitated voice echoed over the phone.

"Its at the edge of the creek with Talia."

"Are you nuts! She wants to kill you!" Sam hung up on him.

"Stay here. Dean'll be by soon since I hung up on him." Talia nodded

"Thank you for helping me."

"Was no trouble." Sam said holding his hand up.

Talia bit her lip.

"Um…You said you and your brother…this is your job…uh…do I have to pay you or anything?" Sam shook his head and she looked relieved. "Take care of yourself, Sam."


Dean stopped his "borrowed" pick up in front of the bridge, relieved that his car was fine, but neither Talia nor Sam was in sight.

"When I save him, I'll kill him." He muttered.

"Sam!" Dean yelled pulling a pistol from the waist of his jeans.

"He's not here; I think he went back to the motel." Talia said appearing behind him, her ebony hair framing her face.

"Bull Shit! I talked to him thirty minutes ago, besides, he wouldn't leave my car." He argued leveling the gun to her head.

"Yeah, and he also hung up on you for being unreasonable. The person who threatened you was another vampire pretending to be me." She told him, keeping her stance ready for an attack. Dean kept the gun steady but his eyes softened slightly.

"I really don't know if I should shoot you, or make a sexist comment."

"Well one might kill me, and the other would kill you." She answered becoming a little more relaxed.

"So do you want some ice for that 'muscle spasm'?" Dean rolled his eyes.

"Very funny."

"If you want to shoot me do it already."

"Don't tempt me. I swear, if Sam has even so much as a scratch on him, I will do more than just shoot you."

Talia sighed, ever the dramatics. It would be so much easier just to distract him…

Sorry Sam

"What? Worried about your boyfriend?" She taunted Dean was shocked enough to lover the gun.

"Eww! That's just gross. First, I am far from gay, and Sam is one hundred percent straight. And second, Sam is my brother so even if I was gay…Eww!"

"Hey man, whatever tickles your pickle, cuz you sure as hell sound gay to me." She said sarcastically.

"Ya know what?" He sent a warning shot straight past her. Unfortunately, Talia didn't know that. She dogged then leaped towards Dean. He ended up flat on his back, with her on top of him, pinning his arms to the ground.

"What the hell! I haven't done anything to you and you try to kill me?" She said practically screaming at him, as he gasped for breath.

"Dude…" cough "You are on crazy ass chick."

"You're the one who tried to shoot me!" All of a sudden Dean sat up and had Talia on her back, arms pinned down.

"What are you gonna do, kiss me or kill me?" She asked making her voice serious. Dean looked at her completely puzzled by what she had said, and before he could answer, she head-butted him. He jumped up after the shock passed, and saw her ebony hair flee out of sight.

"Son of a bitch." Dean mumbled as he picked up the pistol and stumbled back to the car.

When he started it up, Talia popped up from the back seat.

"Could you give me a ride home?" She asked

"What the hell!" Dean yelled, almost running into a tree. "Are you trying to kill me!"

"Keep your pants on. If I wanted you dead, you would be."

"Speaking of wanting people dead that was a warning shot. If I wanted to shoot you, I would have." He was driving steadily now and flipped the radio on-"Witchy Woman"-Eagles.

"And what was that 'kiss or kill me' thing about?"

"Oh! That was just a diversion so I could head-butt you." She said as smooth as could be.

"Awe, I thought that was an offer." Dean cocked

"Dude, you seriously need to keep the blood flow going to your brain, or at least keep some cold water around. And would you please turn off this crap!"

"You would like the blood flow closer to my neck, wouldn't you vamp. And what do you mean 'crap'. Eagles aren't my favorite, but they're still a great band."

"I suppose that means you listen to Beatles, Lynyrd Sknynyrd, Bad Company, Led Zeppelin, Foreigner, the list is endless, and they're all crap!"

"Where do you live?" Dean asked with malice in his voice. The rest of the drive was silent and Talia wasn't even completely out of the car when Dean hit the gas. He watched her go up to the door through the review mirror. Then he picked up his cell.

"Hey, Sammy."

"Did you find your car?" Sam asked "And don't get mad at me, I did try to get you up. Hey is Talia with you?"

"No I dropped her off at her house."

"Go back!" Sam yelled into the phone

"Why?"

"Because, I don't want her to be tempted to kill. Just bring her back to the motel. K."

"Alright, see you in a few minutes." Dean hung up and made the block. When he was back at Talia's house he got out and knocked on the door. No, answer, but he couldn't help but hear someone playing a guitar. He walked around the porch and saw Talia sitting on the steps, with a twelve string Alvarez, playing "Stair Way to Heaven"-Led Zeppelin.

"I thought you didn't like classic rock." Dean stated more as a question.

"Yeah, well, I didn't think you'd come back, but…here you are." Tears started to weld in her eyes. Dean sat down beside her.

"You said you told my brother what happened. Why don't you fill me in…" Talia retold her story almost word for word.

"So you're like uh…half vamp, or something?" Dean asked when she had finished.

"Something like that. I'm not affected by sunlight, but I can't get inside…" She admitted quietly.

"What about wooden stakes?"

"That stabbed through a heart would kill anyone."

They sat quietly until Dean's phone went off.

"Probably Sam. Hello?"

"Hey don't worry about Talia she just got here."

Dean's eyes widened. "What? That's not possible, she's here with me."

Talia grabbed the phone "Sam run! It's her!" A loud crashing was heard on the other end. Then a cool voice reached her ear.

"Hey Kitten, can I speak to Deaney?"

"What did you do to Sam!"

"Give him the phone."

Talia did as commanded.

"I told you to stop looking for her, now you have to worry about Sammy." Dean's eyes flashed in anger.

"What do I have to do?"

The voice on the other end laughed…
