So you're saying that they were hypnotized?" Dean questioned.
"I still have a couple of test results to come back but basically I
would say so."
"Thanks." Dean smiles at her as they walk out. Sam looks around
and sees a girl. He looks at Dean.
"I'll catch up with you." He takes off before Dean can say
anything. Dean watches as Sam walks over to the girl. They talk for a
few minutes. She writes something down and hands it to him. He nods and walks back to the Impala. Dean gets in on the drivers side as Sam gets in.
"So?" Sam looks at him with a puzzled frown.
"She got a friend? I mean a hook up is a good thing Sammy." Sam looks at him with a sudden realization.
"Dean, she' not a hook up. Her best friend was Katie Miller. I set
up a date with her to talk about Katie."
Dean shakes his head. He looks at the girl and whistles.
"Sam you need to relax." Dean said, still eyeing the girl. Sam looks out the window purposely ignoring Dean. They drive away. The girl smiles and walks away from the parking lot. That night at the motel. Sam enters from the bathroom drying his hair. He looks at Dean. Dean's frowning at him.
"What?"
"I don't like this" Sam looks at him.
"You've been jumpy ever since we were at Katie's apartment.
Why?"
"Remember I told you when Dad went missing that I was doing my
own gig?" Sam nods. "I got educated in the two different kinds of
magic and what I saw at Katie Miller's place was dark. It's bad."
"Then maybe it's a good thing I'm going to meet Nenet."
"I'm going with you." He tried to insist, but Sam shook his head.
"Dean, man I can take care of myself" He looks at his watch . "I have to go." He walks to the door. He looks at Dean then walks out. Dean frowns then grabs his jacket. He walks out behind Sam.
Sam walks up to an apartment building. He opens the door and
goes in. He takes the elevator up to the third floor and knocks on the
door. Nenet opens the door and steps back. Sam walks in and she
closes the door.
"I'm glad you could make it Sam. What is it that you want to know
about Katie?" She said, ushering him to take a seat.
"How long had she been practicing the voodoo religion?"
"Oh Katie converted about six months ago. She said that she
had seen too many people at her church that were hypocrites."
"So she came to see you? Why?" She smiles at him.
"Because I am the Mambo" She said, a sparkle in her eye. Sam nods. "She was a very good student. She learned very fast."
"Oh?"
"Yes. She learned the rituals and chants for each. She learned
everything. Except one."
"What was that?"
"How to control her tongue." He stares at her. She laughs.
"I mean once she had started to learn she wanted to go out and
convert everyone she met. I told her that a lot of people would be
afraid of her if she did."
"I see." He smiles at her.
"So what do you think killed her?" Nenet shakes her head.
"I honestly don't know. Would you like a glass of water? Or maybe
something stronger?" She smiles at him. "I have beer, wine, soda..."
"A beer would be fine. Thanks" She smiles and nods. She stands
and starts toward the kitchen but stops. She looks at him.
"Would you prefer that in a glass or a bottle?"
"A bottle is fine." She nods and walks out. She returns a few minutes later carrying two glasses. Sam frowns.
"I didn't have two so I divided the one I had between us." Sam
nods and takes a drink. Nenet takes a drink then stands. She begins to
light candles in a circle. Sam watches her in fascination. Suddenly he
gets a strange look on his face. Nenet looks at him.
"Are you alright?"
"I don't...What did you put in that?" His voice stammered as he felt his heart speed up, panicing at what he feels happening. She walks back to him and reaches out to him. He recoils from her touch.
"It's alright. I'm not going to hurt you." Sam stares at her as she
touches his arm. She begins to chant. Sam looks at her as he tries to
move but can't. The room spun and he started breathing harder, near hyperventilation. What had she done? She leans over and kisses him deeply. She leans back and closes her eyes for a split second. She stands and walks out of the apartment.
Dean is watching from across the street. He sees Nenet leave the building. He waits for a few minutes and Sam doesn't come
out. Dean runs across the street and into the building. He looks at the
mailboxes and then takes the stairs two at a time. He gets to the
apartment and tries the door. It's locked. He kicks it open and finds
Sam leaning back on the couch. He's struggling for breath.
