Carnival of Death

Chapter six

Sam walked over to the booth Jack was working at. His back was to him so Sam put his hand on his shoulder and spun him around.

"If I find out you had anything to do with messing with my brother's track…"

"Get the hell away from me!" Jack said shoving Sam away.

Sam started to reach for Jack but saw Kyle, the boss, coming toward them. He knew he could get thrown out of the carnival if caught fighting so he backed off.

"You stay away from my brother….this is between you and me, you let him out of it." Sam said to Jack as he walked away.

Later

In the early evening the lights at the back of the mirror house suddenly went out. Sam put up an out of order sign and went into the house and back to where the problem was. He began checking the electrical cords and found one near the exit that appeared to have been deliberately cut.

"Jack." Sam said to himself as he examined the frayed end of the cord. Just then he looked up and saw a girl looking back at him through the reflection in the mirror.

"I'm sorry miss but we're closed, you'll have to lea….." Sam said turning around expecting to see the girl standing behind him but no one was there. "What the f…..?"

Sam turned back and once more looked into the face of the girl, he recognized her immediately, she was the missing girl from the paper. He put his hand up to the mirror and realized in horror that the girl was inside the mirror. At first she just looked at him her eyes filled with fear but then all of a sudden she started to scream as slash marks appeared on her body in front of his eyes. Sam began frantically pounding on the mirror trying to break through to the girl but it wouldn't break. Then he watched as a dark black figure came up behind her and began to drag her deeper into the reflection.

"Nooooo!" Sam screamed as he kicked at the mirror trying to break it. He reached for his cell phone to call Dean and then swore when 'no signal' came on the screen. He quickly ran out the back exit hoping to get a signal and hoping to find something to break the mirror with. He had just started to call Dean when he heard a noise behind him but as he started to turn the side of his head suddenly exploded into a blinding pain. He collapsed in a crumpled heap, his cell phone flying from his hand. Jack stood over him holding a shovel which now had Sam's blood on it.

He then grabbed Sam under his arms and pulled him to a small storage shed a few booths away. Once in the shed Jack removed Sam's shirt and jeans then tied him spread eagle to one of the walls dressed only in his boxers. He smiled as he taped duct tape over Sam's mouth and eyes then backhanded him hard across his face. A trickle of blood ran down from behind the duct tape.

"Not so tough now are you?" Jack said as he punched Sam in his stomach.

Jack then left and returned a short time later with a paint ball gun.

"This is going to be fun." He said to himself as he began to shoot the paint balls at Sam's body.

The roller coaster

Dean looked at his watch, it was break time. He figured he'd head over to Sam's booth then go down to the food tent and pick up something to eat.

When he got to Sam's booth he saw the out of order sign hanging in the front.

"Sam! Sam you in there?" Dean yelled as he walked up the steps to the entrance of the house.

When Sam didn't answer, Dean figured he must have missed him on the walk over and went back to the coaster hoping to run into him on the way, but Sam wasn't there. He then went to the food tent and when he discovered he wasn't there either he began walking around the carnival grounds looking for him. He tried calling his cell phone but there was no answer. He was starting to get worried as he walked back to the mirror house and circled the outside of it, but there was no sign of his brother. Now he was really beginning to worry but he tried to keep his worry under control. The carnival was large and Sam could be anywhere, they could just be missing each other. Dean was about to walk back to the food tent when he saw Sam's cell phone lying on the ground. He picked it up and noticed that his number was on the screen; Sam had been trying to call him when he dropped the phone. But what really worried him were the drops of blood on the phone. …Sam was hurt! Dean could feel his heart pounding as he bent down and looked underneath the trailers in the area. Where was his brother? Not knowing where else to look he walked back to the mirror house. He could see that a part of the house was dark and he took a few steps inside then knelt down and picked up the cut cord. What the hell was going on and where was his brother?

"Sam! Sammy!"

The storage shed

Sam was now semi conscious and could feel the sting of the paint balls as they hit him. It felt like being stung over and over by bees. He struggled to free himself but the blow he took to his head made him dizzy and confused, it was hard for him just to stay conscious.

Jack looked at Sam's paint covered body and smiled. There was one more thing he wanted to do. He headed out side and looked around then walked over and picked up a pair of garden shears and headed back to the shed.

"I'm going to teach you a lesson you'll never forget." He said smiling.
