A/N: Two reviews for a first chapter... that might just be a record for me! Usually people don't catch on until later. Anyway, thanks for reviewing, you guys! Like promised, Sam and Dean are in this chapter. :) The song I used at the end is "The Devil In The Wishing Well" by Five For Fighting- I just had it stuck in my head while I was writing the chapter, and I was like, "wait, it would probably actually work here!" So I put it in. Great song. Anyway, enjoy!

CHAPTER TWO – WELCOME TO NEW JERSEY

"Wake up, Sammy. We're here."

Sam opened his eyes and looked around. "Dean, this is a diner."

"Well, yeah. No use ghost hunting on an empty stomach," Dean reasoned, getting out of the car. Sam followed.

As they walked inside, they were instantly met with the sound of Ashlee Simpson on the radio.

"Ah, the country's hell hole even has an appropriate soundtrack," Dean commented as they were seated.

"So, how far away is the Feldman household?" Sam asked.

"About twenty minutes," Dean answered. "But that's not who we're going to."

"Huh?"

"Jason Feldman was thekid that that got killed in the woods. Bryan Woodrow was his friend who said that the Jersey Devil did it," Dean explained.

"So we go ask him what he saw," Sam interpreted.

"Exactly," Dean replied. He put down his menu. "I'm gonna go to the can. If the waitress comes, I'm having a burger." He got up and left.

Sam unfolded the newspaper article that Dean had used for reference and started to read in order to know as much as possible about what they were dealing with.

A waitress approached the table. "Oh, that's the article about Bryan," she said as she took out her notepad. "His trial's in a few days. Shame."

"You think he killed Jason?" Sam asked.

"Who else could've done it? He was the only one there."

"Jersey Devil?" Sam asked.

The waitress just smirked. "You really believe in that stuff?"

"You're the one who lives in this state. I figured you would."

"Not from around here, huh? Well, welcome to New Jersey. What are you, a shoobie going down the shore for the weekend?"

"Huh?"

The waitress laughed. "I'm asking if you're from Pennsylvania and you're here to go to the beach."

"Oh. No, actually. My brother and I came because of this case. It's pretty interesting," Sam explained.

"How much do you really know about the Jersey Devil?"

"Uh… well… obviously it's a local legend. I saw it on The X-Files once."

"Don't tell me that's your reference point. According to The X-Files, Atlantic City is surrounded by a Canadian forest that hosts a female Neanderthal. That's not the legend."

"Well then, I have no idea what the Jersey Devil is," Sam admitted.

"You're free to ask me."

"And you're an expert because…"

"My last name is Leeds," the waitress said. Sam just looked at her. "Leeds? Y'know, Mother Leeds?" Yet again no reaction from Sam. "You do have a lot to learn."

"I was planning on doing some research…"

"Well, if you're going to, use weirdnj . com,"the waitress advised. She started to walk away.

"Hey, aren't you gonna take my order?" Sam asked.

"My shift's over," the waitress replied matter-of-factly as she left.

Dean returned from the bathroom. "What's that look for?" he asked his brother.

"I might've met someone who can help us."

The radio was now playing a distinctly different song.

So go right, you'll be left at a big hotel

You'll meet the devil at the bottom of a wishing well

You know you better give him something, give him something good

Like everybody else he's misunderstood…

A/N: Ashlee Simpson fans, don't kill me for that joke! lol. Sorry for the really stupid spacing for the website name- fanfiction kept deleting the address if I put it in regularly! Anyway, if you're bored, go ahead and check it out- really cool website! Also, we really do say "shoobie" in this state... no, it did not come from Rocket Power! Stupid show, stealing our slang... and "down the shore" describes anywhere near the beach. And if you go to the beach, you're not "at the shore," you're still "down the shore." Yeah, we don't exactly have the best grammar skills. Ever heard someone from New Jersey say water? It's pronouced "wooder." Anything else is "weird." lol. And that episode of The X-Files is real- everyone I know complained about how innacurately the Jersey Devil legend was portrayed. ...I'll stop rambling now. :)
