"Dean, this is going to be hard." Sam said in the comfort of their hotel room, as he typed on his laptop.

"Nah… How many carnivals can there be here?" Dean sat on the nearest bed throwing a ball up and down. Sam turned his computer in Dean's direction, showing the number on the screen. "Oh…" He stood corrected. "Well… Looks like we've got some researching to do…"

After many clicks of the keyboard, Sam spoke. "Check this out, there was an old fair ground here. But it got shut down five years ago, 'cause of some accident where people went missing. Looks like people have been missing ever since, but it's been subtle. Nothing seems to have turned anyone's head until now, when so many people left at once."

"Where is it?"

"Uh… I dunno. It doesn't say."

"Oh, well… We should ask Vanesse and Holly if they know anything." Dean let his love for women show.

"Dean…" Sam grunted.

"Hey, you've got to admit. It'd be nice to have someone by our sides who knows their way around." He attempted to tie logic into his own want.

"Fine." Sam agreed with irritation.

Dean smiled as he reached for his cell phone, after dialing a few numbers a voice came from the phone.

"Hello?" Vanesse spoke through the other end.

"Guess who."

"Oh, hi Harley!"

"Hey, girlfriend."

Vanesse laughed, "We're ridiculous…"

"Yeah, maybe. But Sammy and I gotta talk to you guys about some more carnival stuff." Dean tried not to kill the moment.

"Um…Okay, why don't you two swing by our apartment? It's near campus. I can give you directions." Vanesse tried to sound as happy as possible.

"Maybe I'll break my record." He began to talk flirtatiously.

"Maybe, maybe not…"

Sam rolled his eyes and yelled to his brother, annoyed, "Hurry it up, Dean!"

"Well, Sam here's being a bitch. So, I gotta go."

"See you in a little bit?"

"Yeah." Dean hung up his phone and then turned around to face Sam, "Don't get jealous because I get Vanesse and you don't get Holly."

"Ha-ha." Sam laughed sarcastically, "I don't like her. I just don't want to sit and watch you make-out all day"

"Don't worry, I'll be sure you're not there…"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vanesse hung up her phone and bit her lip with excitement. "Holly!" She shouted as she ran into a bedroom, where Holly laid furiously reading and writing answers.

"What's up?" Holly laughed at Vanesse as she smiled widely.

"Remember those extremely cute guys from last night, Dean and Sam?"

"Yeah? They were really cute." Holly's smiled grew wider.

"Well, they're coming here in just a few minutes!" Vanesse said as she sat herself on Holly's book-filled bed.

"For what?" Her face grew cautioned.

"Something about the carnival and the vampires… But, they're going to be here."

"Why are you so obsessed with vampires?" Holly frowned.

Vanesse's smile faded, "I am not obsessed with them."

"Then why are you so interested!" Holly put down her pencil and crossed her arms at her remark, feeling an argument stirring.

She looked at Holly like she was crazy. "My brother died. You know how close we were! I wanted to know what killed him, and those two boys found me an answer. And I believe them. I know it's strange, but… I trust them. I trust him."

Holly stared at her sarcastically, "Yay. How heart-warming. Just so you know, all that flirting you do with 'Dean'… It's not pleasant."

"How can you be so… Insensitive? My brother died. He was all I had left! You know. You were there the day of that fire. You were there the day I lost my parents.

After they died, Nathan told me everything was going to be okay, and not to worry because he was going to take care of me. And then he got ripped away from me too! But, when Dean touched me, all that pain… All that sorrow I had been drowning in for so long, it just… Disappeared." Vanesse preached her feelings through teary eyes.

Holly rolled her eyes through this sob story, "Oh, go write a song about it."

"Maybe I will!" Vanesse stormed out of the door, and then sat herself down at their piano.

Holly brought her hand to her mouth as her chin started to tremble. "I don't want to hurt her… But I have to protect myself…" The two sides of her mind battled. "Only a while left until the full moon."
