Chapter 5:
Dean turned to Sam. "You follow her, you're more sentimental. I'll check the rest of the house." Sam went out the front door and onto the porch. Jenny was running off into a field. He took off running after her.
Dean descended into the cellar. It was the basic storage place, with tons of stuff everywhere. There was a narrow path through the clutter. Dean walked down it slowly. At the end there was a door. Dean pushed it open and felt along the wall and flipped up a light switch. The light illuminated the walls.
"Holy shit…"
Sam kept running, and jumped over the gate to a cemetery. He found Jenny on her knees in the mud, pounding the ground with her fists. As he got closer, he could hear her words.
"Why did you leave me! You knew I wasn't ready! You knew I couldn't hunt by myself! You knew! But I wasn't my brother! And you gave up on me!" Sam slowed down. He could read the headstone. It was Jenny's father. He knelt down next to her.
"Jenny. Come on Jenny, tell me what's wrong." She looked up at Sam. Some of her hair had fallen out of it's ponytail and hung wetly in her face.
"Tell what? What my life has been like? Where can you start with something like that." She asked, her voice soft.
"Start from the beginning." Jenny looked up at him, then back down at the mud.
"I…had a…brother. He was my twin. My father…was excited. He finally had a son to carry on the 'family business'."
"Hunting the paranormal?" Sam asked. Jenny nodded.
"Dad spent most of his time teaching my brother, what he would need to know. I spent most of my time with my mom. But I remember the day Dad told us about the supernatural. Neither of us believed him but…we soon found out it was true. Our grandfather was killed by something…we still don't know what." She took a breath and choked back a sob.
"Later, my brother…he…was out hunting. My father had left to go somewhere, and left my brother alone. He, he came back…and my brother…was dead. Dad was so angry. It was a werewolf, it had mauled my brother." Sam felt badly for Jenny. She had lost her brother. He couldn't even begin to imagine what that must have been like. He looked over at the next headstone. It was newer and it must have been her bother's.
"But, Dad decided that he needed to train me. I didn't want him to. I didn't want to end up like my brother. But now, I'm stuck with this life, a life I don't want."
"Jenny, I know what it's like to have to do something you don't want to. But you can get out of it. I did. I went to college, I got to lead a normal life, you can do it."
"Sam, you can't get out of this life. You might have gone to college, but look now, you got caught up in this life again. You came back."
"I gave up my normal life to help my brother. To find our father. You have nothing like that to hold you to this life. You can give it up. You can lead a normal life!" By now the storm was raging. Thunder and lightening were everywhere. "Jenny, we need to get inside." He helped her up and she put her arms around him in a hug.
"Thank you." Sam smiled and helped her inside.
Please, please, read and review! Thanks to all those that already have!
