Supernatural: Lovely Ladies in Black

Chapter 15: The Darkness

Dean, Bud, and Max cram into the '69 Impala and speed down the narrow one-way street to the church. Bud stares at Max, the shock of the situation apparent on his face. Dean pulled into the church parking lot and turned the car off. He turned around and looked at him and Max in the back.

"You know what we have to do, right?" he asked as they gripped their guns tighter. They looked at each other and nodded, getting out of the car as they did. Dean followed suit and opened up the trunk. Bud and Max stared at the mass jumble of weapons.

Dean grabbed a couple guns and closed the trunk, signaling for the other two to follow him quietly. They crept up to the front doors and hid around the corner. He motioned to the other two to remain quiet and opened the front doors.

Sam continued to struggle against his bindings. He knew that Bennit was working for someone, maybe even possessed, but by whom and why? Sam felt his energy draining out of him and knew it was hopeless. His premonition was going to come true and there was nothing he could do about it. He slumped against his bindings and sighed. He knew he was doomed. He heard footsteps from behind him and saw Bennit's smiling face before everything went dark again.

Dean looked around the corner of the door, checking to see if anyone was watching. No one was around and he motioned for the other two to follow him. He headed for the back of the church and down into the basement. He followed the corridor for a ways, wondering why they hadn't run into any trouble, when he reached a dead end.

He stopped in his tracks and looked at the wall that was now staring him in the face. His gut was telling him that Sam was beyond the wall, but he had no idea how to get to him. Bud pulled Dean wordlessly away from the wall.

Dean watched as Max took a running start and busted through the wall. Dean stared at him in astonishment and made a mental note to never get on his bad side, before following him and Bud through the hole and into the darkness beyond.
