DEAD MAN'S BLOOD

Evie's POV

Nothing new to report, in-between cases at the moment trying to find something up round the Nebraska area but all in all we're good as always and might even come for a visit if we don't find a case but you know I can't make any promises, miss you Dad and I love you – Evelyn xo, I pressed send just as Dean dropped the paper he'd been reading.

We were currently stopped for something to eat while we looked for a case since it'd been pretty slow lately, Dean grabbed the paper when we sat down and ordered and Sam had gotten onto his computer while I quickly emailed my Dad.

"Not a decent lead in all of Nebraska, what do you got?" Dean said looking up at Sam.

"Well I've been scanning Wyoming, Colorado, South Dakota…here, a woman in Iowa fell 10,000 feet from an airplane and survived"

"Sounds more like That's Incredible than Twilight Zone" Dean argued.

"Yeah" Sam agreed looking back at the computer screen.

"Hey you know we could just keep heading east, New York, upstate, you could stop by and see Sarah again" I kicked Dean's leg underneath the table. "She's a cool chick man, smoking" I rolled my eyes looking back down at my phone as a new email came in.

Hey baby girl, glad to hear from you and good to hear you lot are okay, I would definitely like a visit soon since I miss you too darling especially since your only a couple hours away but never mind that, love you – Dad xoxo.

"Yeah I don't know, maybe someday but in the meantime we got a lot of work to do Dean and you know that" Sam replied clearly answering something I'd missed.

"Yeah your right, what else you got?"

"Manning, Colorado a local man by the name of Daniel Elkins was found mauled in his home"

"Elkins, I know that name" Dean interrupted.

"Doesn't ring a bell" Sam replied looking up as Dean repeated 'Elkins' under his breath. "It sounds like the police don't know what to think, at first they said it was some bear attack and now they found signs of robbery" Sam added as I watched curiously as Dean flipped through their Dad's journal then stopped and his eyes raised up.

"There, check it out" he suddenly said turning it towards us and pointed at a name. 'D. Elkin: 970.555.0156'

"You think it's the same Elkins?" I asked looking up at him.

"It's a Colorado area code" he replied.

"Alright let's check it out" I shrugged getting up and walked out with the boys following

We found out Elkins address and Dean pulled up out the front of his place and it was dark and snowing when we arrived and I was shivering since I hadn't exactly dressed for the snow as I stood behind them while Sam lockpicked the door.

"God why did it have to be snowing?" I complained rubbing my hands together and Dean looked back then shrugged out of his brown leather jacket and handed it to me making me smile and quickly slip into the arms, it was huge and probably looked ridiculous but it was warm and smelt like him as I cuddled into it. "Thanks babe" he smiled just as Sam got the door open and let it swing open as he pocketed his lockpicks and pulled out his flashlight.

"Looks like the maid didn't come today" Dean commented as we walked inside seeing the place looked trashed.

"Hey there's salt over here, right inside the door" Sam called back.

"You mean like protection-against-demon salt or oops-I-spilled-the-popcorn salt?"

"It's clearly a ring" Sam replied as I looked down at Dean looking through what looked like a hunters journal. "You think this Elkins guy was a player?" Sam asked us.

"Definitely" Dean replied still flipping through the journal as Sam walked up and peered over his shoulder at it.

"That looks a hell of a lot like Dad's"

"Yeah except this dates back to the 60's" Dean added as we moved further through the house and found a room that was even more trashed then the others.

"Whatever attacked him, it looks like there was more than one" Sam pointed out shining his light towards some skylights that were smashed in meaning something came through them.

"Looks like he put up one hell of a fight too" Dean added moving through the room with Sam going over to the desk so I followed Dean and saw him look at a box but my eyes dropped to the ground seeing what looked like nail marks in the floor but looked like it was trying to spell something out.

"Flashlight?" I reached my hand back and Dean handed his over as I bent down shining the torch on it and ran my fingers over it.

"Got something?" Sam asked.

"I don't know some scratches on the floor" I replied then looked up for a piece of paper.

"Death throes maybe" Sam shrugged it off but I turned to Dean and he had the same look then reached up and grabbed some paper and a pencil off the desk handing them to me and I put the paper over the marks then shaded over it and saw it was trying to spell something out.

"Or maybe a message" I turned and handed it to Sam. "Look familiar?"

"Three letters, six digits" I nodded. "The location and combination of a post office box, it's a mail drop"

"It's just the way Dad does it" Dean replied and we left heading to the postal office finding the right box and Dean put in the combination opening it and there was a letter inside, he turned it towards us and I frowned at the 'J.W' on the front but we didn't say anything until we were safe in 'Baby'.

"..'J.W' you think, John Winchester?" Sam asked speaking up what we were all thinking.

"I don't know, should we open it?" Dean asked right before there was a tap on the divers window and Dean jumped ten foot but we saw it was their Dad and he smiled.

"Dad?" Sam asked in shock as we all were as he climbed into the back with me. "Dad what are you doing here, are you alright?"

"Yeah I'm okay" he replied nodding his head. "Look I read the news about Daniel I got here as fast as I could, I saw you three up at his place"

"Why didn't you come in Dad?" Sam asked him.

"You know why" he replied looking at him. "Because I had to make sure you weren't followed by anyone or anything" I refrained from rolling my eyes since we weren't kids and we'd been doing this for a long time without him. "Nice job of covering your tracks by the way"

"Yeah well we learned from the best" Dean replied.

"Wait, so you came all the way out here for this Elkins guy?" Sam asked him.

"Yeah he was…he was a good man, he taught me a hell of a lot about hunting"

"Well you never mentioned him to us" Sam replied and I hopped they wouldn't start arguing.

"We had a…we had kind of a falling out, I hadn't seen him in years" I again refrained from scoffing since John seemed to have falling outs with just about everyone. "I should look at that" he added pointing at the letter in Dean's hand and he of course handed it over without question. "..'If you're reading this I'm already dead'…that son of a bitch"

"What is it?" Dean asked.

"He had it all along" John replied confusing me.

"Dad, what?" Sam asked him.

"When you searched his place did you see a gun, an antique colt revolver, did you see it?"

"Uh there was an old case but it was empty" Dean replied sharing a look with me as we remembered the box he'd looked at.

"They have it" John said more to himself than us.

"You mean whatever killed Elkins?" I asked hoping he'd clue us in since he seemed to already know what killed him.

"We gotta pick up the trail" he replied not answering my question and got out.

"Wait you want us to come with you?" Sam asked undeterred that John had brushed off my question.

"If Elkins was telling the truth we've gotta find this gun" John replied leaning down to look through the drivers window.

"The guy, why?" Sam asked him.

"Because it's important that's why" John snapped in his voice that left no room for arguments.

"Dad we don't even know what these things are yet" Sam shot back.

"They were what Daniel Elkins killed best, vampires" John replied and I frowned since as far as I knew there was no such thing, my Dad had never said there were vampires in the world.

"Vampires, I thought there was no such thing" I replied unable to keep my mouth shut.

"You never even mentioned them" Sam added.

"I thought they were extinct, I thought Elkins and others had wiped them out, I was wrong" he admitted and I raised an eye since that was one in a million especially for him to admit it.

He went on to tell us that apparently most vampire lore is nothing but fiction, a cross doesn't repel them, sunlight doesn't kill them and neither does a stake to the heart but obviously the blood lust part is the only thing that's true and need fresh human blood to survive and that they look just like people since they were one once and we won't know it until it's too late.

"Sam, Dean, Evelyn let's go" we groaned having been rudely woken up by John's voice. "I picked up a police call"

"What happened?" Sam asked and I looked up seeing I had been laying on Dean's chest and jumped up quickly since it was just awkward now that John was back with us and knew I should have slept on the couch since even though we'd fallen asleep in the same bed I'd been on the other side but must've instinctively moved closer to Dean in my sleep.

"A couple called 911, found a body in the street cops got there everyone was missing, it's the vampires" John replied as Dean looked at me raising an eye at my behavior as I moved away from him pulling my boots back on.

"How do you know?" Sam asked him again.

"Just follow me, okay" John snapped back walking out the door with Sam slowly following him.

"Vampires" Dean scoffed as he pulled on his jacket. "Get's funnier every time I hear it" he added and I laughed kind of agreeing with him.

"Let's go" I pressed since I didn't want to be the one slowing us down and it getting blamed on our relationship even though we never let it get in the way before John disappeared.

We were standing next to the Impala watching from afar as John talked to the cops as I tiredly leaned against the Impala feeling like I got no sleep at all when I had but knew it was from the uncomfortable position I'd fallen asleep in, I'd gotten used to Dean behind me with his arm wrapped around my waist.

"Don't see why we couldn't have gone over with him" Sam spoke up looking over at John as he was walking towards us.

"Oh don't tell me it's already starting" Dean snapped.

"What's starting?" Sam asked him but Dean didn't reply and turned to John as he reached us.

"What do you got?"

"It was them alright" John replied not really answering the question. "Looks like their headed west, we have to double back to get around the detour"

"How can you be so sure?" Sam asked him with an arguing tone.

"Sam" Dean said stopping him.

"I just wanna know were going in the right direction" Sam snapped glaring at Dean.

"We are" John nodded.

"How do you know?" Sam pressed and John stared at him a couple seconds.

"I found this" he brought his hand out of his pocket and handed Dean something, I moved closer and saw it looked like a tooth…more so a fang and I wanted to laugh since this was really starting to freak me out.

"It's a vampire fang"

"No fangs, it's teeth a second set descends when they attack" John replied then turned to Sam. "Any more questions?" Sam didn't say anything else. "Alright let's get out of here we're losing daylight" we turned and walked towards the cars. "Hey Dean why don't you touch up your car before you get rust, I wouldn't have given you the damn thing if I thought you were gonna ruin it" John added while walking to his truck and I frowned since that was uncalled for, Dean looks after 'Baby' as if she actually was a baby.

"Vampires nest in groups of eight to ten, smaller packs are sent out to hunt for food, victims are taken to the nest where the pack keeps them alive bleeding them for days or weeks, I wonder if that's what happened to the 911 couple" Dean read as Sam drove following John's truck.

"That's probably what Dad's thinking" Sam replied sounding like he was pouting. "Course it would be nice if he just told us what he thinks"

"So it is starting?" Dean asked and I shook my head leaning back in my seat since I wasn't getting involved in this.

"What?" Sam asked turning towards him.

"Sam we've been looking for Dad all year, now we're with him a couple of hours and there's static already" Sam scoffed.

"No, look I'm happy he's okay alright, I'm happy that were all working together again-"

"Well good" Dean said cutting him off.

"It's just the way he treats us like we're children"

"Oh god" Dean groaned.

"He barks orders at us Dean, he expects us to follow them without question, he keeps us on some crap need-to-know deal-"

"He does what he does for a reason" Dean snapped back.

"What reason?" Sam asked back.

"Our job, there's no time to argue there's no margin for error alright it's just the way the old man runs things"

"Yeah well maybe that worked when we were kids but not anymore, alright not after everything we've been through, I mean are you telling me you're cool with falling into line, letting him run the whole show?" Sam asked looking at Dean who refused to answer for a second and I knew he hesitated because he was nearly agreeing with Sam, while johns not around Dean is kind of in charge when it comes down to it.

"If that's what it takes" he finally replied and I scoffed which made him look back at me but I just shrugged and Sam didn't say anything else and it was silent until Dean's phone rang a couple minutes later. "Yeah Dad, alright got it" he hung up. "Pull off next exit"

"Why?" Sam asked laced with anger.

"Cause Dad thinks we've got the vampires trail" Dean replied.

"How?" Sam asked again and I could practically see the steam coming out of his ears.

"I don't know, he didn't say" Dean shrugged like it wasn't a big deal but I saw it was the last straw for Sam and he sped up moving into the other lane past John's truck before getting in front then turned the Impala sideways to a stop forcing John to break before he got out. "Ah crap here we go, Sam!" Dean exclaimed and we got out to stop the inevitable fight.

"What the hell was that?" John asked storming towards Sam.

"We need to talk" Sam spat back and they got in each other's faces.

"About what?"

"About everything, where are we going Dad, what's the big deal about this gun?"

"Sammy come on, we can q and a after we kill all the vampires"

"Your brothers right we don't have time for this" John added which only added to Sam's anger.

"Last time we saw you, you said it was too dangerous to be together, now out of the blue you need our help now obviously something big is going down and we wanna know what!" Sam yelled.

"Get back in the car" John said again in the voice that left no room for arguments from Dean and I at least.

"No" Sam shook his head.

"I said, get back in the damn car"

"Yeah and I said no"

"Alright you made your point tough guy, look we're all tired we can talk about this later, Sammy I mean it come on" Dean cut in grabbing Sam's collar and pulled him towards the Impala.

"This is why I left in the first place" Sam shot back quietly but we all heard him.

"What'd you say?" John asked.

"You heard me" Sam snapped turning back to him and I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah you left, your brother and me we needed you, you walked away Sam, you walked away" I'd had enough now.

"Stop it, both of you!" I yelled but was ignored except for Dean looking at me.

"You're the one who said 'don't come back' Dad, you're the one who closed that door not me, you were just pissed off you couldn't control me anymore!" Sam yelled and John grabbed a hold of his jacket.

"Listen stop it, stop it, stop it" Dean yelled getting between them forcing them apart. "That's enough!" they continued to glare at each other. "That means you too" he added towards his father, Sam finally got back into the Impala and John walked back over to his truck getting in. "Terrific" Dean said throwing up his hands. "Let's go" he added towards me.

I sighed rolling my eyes getting back into the Impala and we drove again right into the early morning hours finally stopping and started the stake out watching the barn in front of us that John was sure was the vampire nest and it was pretty much confirmed when we watched a car pull up and the barn door open with one of them shielding their eyes from the sun with another getting out of the car and heading inside.

"Son of a bitch, so they're really not afraid of the sun?" Dean asked looking at John.

"Yeah direct sunlight hurts like a nasty sunburn, the only way to kill them is by beheading and yeah they sleep during the day, doesn't mean they won't wake up"

"So I guess walking right in is not our best option" I replied looking at the barn still.

"Actually, that's the plan" John replied surprising me a little but I didn't argue and we walked back to the cars and Dean opened the boot and weapons compartment and we started grabbing weapons out.

"Hey Dad, I've got an extra machete if you need one" Dean called holding up the spare as I tied mine around my left thigh.

"Think I'm okay, thanks" John replied unsheathing one out of his own weapons compartment in his truck and it definitely was an upgrade.

"Wow" Dean said admiring it too and I smiled checking my blades sharpness before dropping it into the sheath.

"So…" John suddenly said making us look up. "…you's really wanna know about this colt?" he asked looking at us.

"Yes sir" Sam replied.

"It's just a story, a legend really" he said so we walked closer finally relived that we were getting something out of him. "Well I thought it was, I never really believed it until I read Daniel's letter, back in 1835 when Halley's comet was overhead…the same night those men died at the Alamo, they say Samuel Colt made a gun, a special gun he made it for a hunter, a man like us only on horseback, story goes he made thirteen bullets and this hunter used the gun half a dozen times before he disappeared, the gun along with him and somehow Daniel got his hands on it" I stared in shock since it sounded too good to be true. "They say...they say this gun can kill anything"

"Kill anything, like supernatural anything?" Dean asked him.

"Like the demon" Sam added thinking the same thing we all were, this was their chance.

"Yeah like the demon, ever since I picked up its trail I've been looking for a way to destroy that thing, find the gun we may have it" I looked up at Dean since if this really was it then I wondered where that left us but right now the more important thing to focus on was the hunt.

Once we were sure the coast was clear for us we ran down quietly towards the barn finding a window that John pushed open before climbing inside and Sam quickly followed him with Dean behind him but Dean paused looking back at me and I climbed through before closing the window behind us.

I looked around and saw the vampires all sleeping in hammocks suspended from the ceiling so we walked carefully and quietly through them but Dean accidently kicked a beer bottle that made a clinking noise as it rolled and I stilled as Dean panicked but luckily none of the vampires woke up and I rolled my eyes as Dean looked at me shrugging his shoulders.

"Dean, Evie" Sam whispered over to us so we went towards where he was and saw the girl from the couple that was taken from the road but a clattering from behind us alerted us to more victims in cages.

"There's more" Dean said going over to it as Sam untied the girls ropes as I watched the vampires especially when Dean grabbed a hook and was using it to remove the hinges which was making a bit of noise but they were all still sleeping.

"Hurry up" I whispered towards Dean and he gave me an exasperated look for being rushed but I was nervous and racked with anxiety and just wanted to get the hell away from these bloodsuckers since I didn't fancy being a juice box for freaks.

"Hey" Sam suddenly said making me turn away from the sleeping vampires and saw the girl was waking up. "Hey, hey shh I'm here to help you"

"No!" she yelled in an animalistic scream that made me jump especially as it woke the vampires.

"Sam!" Dean yelled.

"Kids run!" we heard John yell from wherever he was in the barn and we didn't hesitate running towards a way out.

"Dad!" Sam yelled as we ran with the vampires right behind us but we made it out the barn doors and into the woods with them not following stopping when we reached the cars.

"Dad?" Dean asked turning back the way we came but we couldn't see him anywhere. "Dad!" he added and finally John came through the trees, I sighed in relief getting ready to run again.

"They won't follow they'll wait until night, once a vampire get's your scent it's for life"

"What the hell do we do?" Dean asked as his hand came around my waist pulling me to him.

"You two gotta find the nearest funeral home, that's what" I frowned giving him an odd look but orders were orders despite how much I would come to hate what he asked us to do.

We found a funeral home and was surprised at the amount of security but of course we got in and found what we were looking for and I was gagging almost the entire time and refused to touch the jar after we were done getting back to the Impala and drove to the motel.

"That was so gross" I protested rubbing my hands in sanitizer.

"I'm gonna change your name to princess" I glared over at him. "You hate dirt, complain about salt and burns and now this"

"Sorry I don't like looking at bones and gore every five minutes" I crossed my arms over my chest looking out the window ignoring him.

"I was kidding Shortstack"

"Whatever, let's get back the longer we leave those two alone the more risk of them shooting each other" he nodded and stepped on the gas.

We arrived back at the motel and I hopped out heading to our door opening it expecting John and Sam to be in each other's faces yelling but they were actually laughing and smiling at something one of them had said surprising me.

"Whoo, man heavy security to protect a bunch of dead guys" Dean said as soon as he followed me in and closed the door.

"You's get it?" John asked us all serious again, Dean reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out the brown paper bag with the bottle of blood and put it down on the table, John picked it up smiling at us and to be honest it was making me uncomfortable on how much he was smiling since it was the most I'd seen the man smile in a short time. "You know what to do" I frowned since I knew the plan and I didn't like it especially since it was Dean playing distraction while we hid.

We waited until dark before setting up the plan, John, Sam and I were hiding in some nearby bushes while Dean was pretending to be having car troubles and the whole time my eyes were fixated on him…and maybe a little his ass as he was bending under the hood and Dean working on a car was all kinds of…Evelyn head in the game.

A female vamp finally showed up behind him and Dean spun when she said something then I recognized her attempt at flirting with him and Dean's obvious witty remark right before she back-handed him and I went to get up but John grabbed my hand pulling me down and shook his head at me with a warning look, I frowned not liking it but obeyed knowing that I'd likely blow the plan by acting impulsively.

I turned back to the scene and saw a dark skinned male vamp show up just before the bitch grabbed Dean by his jaw and lifted him up and it was taking everything in me to remain still and not blow our advantage but even more so when she lowered him and suddenly had her lips against his.

"Oh hell no" I whispered grabbing the crossbow off Sam and fired sending one right into her heart as John quickly fired his seeing my move hitting the dude and she dropped Dean turning to where we were as we came out.

"Barely even stings" she said glaring at us.

"Give it time sweetheart, arrows soaked in dead man's blood" John replied and her smirk fell. "It's like poison to you, isn't it?" I smiled especially as her eyes rolled back and she collapsed but it fell as she did right into Dean's arms. "Load her up, I'll take care of this one" Dean nodded picking her up and carried her off with me following close behind.

We drove away from the site far enough and tied the bitch up before she could recover and John was quick at work handing something to Dean with instructions to put it on the fire while I watched over the vamp with my machete spinning it on the dirt.

"…saffron, skunks cabbage and trillium, it'll block our scent and hers until were ready" John explained as they came closer.

"Stuff stinks" Dean commented after sniffing it.

"That's the idea" John replied looking around. "Dust your clothes with the ashes and you might stand a chance of not being detected" I raised an eye curious to how he knew all this.

"You sure they'll come after her?" Sam asked him.

"Yeah vampires mate for life, she means more to the leader than the gun but the blood sickness is gonna wear off soon so you don't have a lot of time"

"Half-hour ought to do it" Sam replied and I looked up slowly standing and walked over to them.

"Then I want you out of the area fast" John added.

"But-"

"Dad, you can't take care of them all by yourself" Dean quickly said cutting off Sam's reply.

"I'll have her and the Colt"

"But after were gonna meet up right?" Sam asked him. "Use the gun together, right?" I frowned seeing John's look. "You're leaving again, aren't you?" John didn't reply and I could see Sam getting angry. "You still want to go after the demon alone, you know I don't get you, you can't treat us like this"

"Like what?" John challenged.

"Like children" Sam snapped.

"You and Dean are my children" John replied then looked down at me. "I'm trying to keep you all safe, especially you since I promised your father" I rolled my eyes and he looked shocked that I did it in his face.

"Dad, all due respect but that's a bunch of crap" Dean spoke up and we all turned to him surprised since he never talked back.

"Excuse me?" John asked him.

"You know what we've been hunting, hell you sent us on a few hunting trips yourself you can't be that worried about us" Dean replied and I took his hand showing my support since it was about time he told his old man the truth.

"It's not the same thing" John argued.

"Then what is it, why do you want us out of the big fight?"

"This demon…it's a bad son of a bitch, I can't make the same moves if I worry about keeping you alive"

"You mean you can't be as reckless" I snapped finally speaking up, even though John wasn't my father or even blood related I was the same as Dean and had never spoke back but everything is different now and he had to see it.

"Look…I don't expect to make it out of this fight in one piece" John replied then turned to Sam and Dean. "Your mothers death…it almost killed me, I can't watch my children die too" he added and looked down at me and I knew I was included in that which in any other circumstance would fill me with joy since he was like a second father to me. "I won't"

"What happens if you die?" Dean asked him. "Dad what happens if you die and we could've done something about it?" he added and John looked away. "You know I've been thinking, I…I think maybe Sammy's right about this one, we should do this together" I saw Sam tearing up so I reached out and took his hand squeezing it in comfort. "We're stronger as a family Dad, we just are you know it"

"We're running out of time" John replied looking up avoiding everything Dean just said. "You do your job and you get out of the area, that's a order" he walked away leaving no room for argument so we decided to let it go for now and got to work.

Once we received John's word that he was being followed we made our move down towards the barn letting ourselves in seeing a single vampire left behind and made a single noise to draw him to us and it worked like a charm and Dean was able to cut of his head and once he was surely dead we went over to the caged hostages.

"I told you I'd come back" I rolled my eyes and pulled out a screwdriver and pulled the last few hinges off allowing us to get them out and to safety before Sam, Dean and I shared a look knowing we all had the same thought, I grabbed the crossbow again and we started running to catch up arriving just in time to see John get thrown back into his truck by the leader so I fired a bolt off hitting a female vamp in the heart as we ran closer and I shot another just as Dean ran up and picked up a machete that was one the ground but when we turned we saw the leader had Sam in a choke hold.

"Don't, I'll break his neck" I frowned at him over the top of the crossbow. "Put the blade and crossbow down" Dean glared at him and his hold got tighter around Sam's neck so I pulled back raising my hand and the crossbow up as Dean held up a hand and we both slowly lowered to the ground never taking our eyes off the vamp and put our weapons down. "You people, why can't you just leave us alone, we have as much right to live as you do"

"I don't think so" John suddenly said and the leader turned but John fired off the colt and the bullet landed right between his eyes, he let go of Sam and he stubbled towards Dean and I so we caught him watching as blood trailed from the wound as he fell to his knees as light lit him up from the inside making his skeleton show through his skin.

"Luther!" the bitch we'd captured screamed right before he collapsed completely dead and the girl looked up at John with a murderous look.

"Kate don't!" another girl vamp said grabbing her arm stopping her from attacking and dragged her to a waiting car which they got in and drove away.

We went back to the motel and started packing up, the same deal after every successful hunt but this time was different when John walked in making us stop and turn to him, I watched with a frown feeling like another argument was in the wind.

"So…kids" he said hesitantly walking closer.

"Yes sir?" Sam replied.

"You ignored a direct order back there" John said looking between us.

"Yes sir" Sam repeated.

"Yeah but we saved your ass" Dean added making me smile since he was getting braver.

"You're right" John nodded surprising me that he agreed.

"I am?" Dean asked as surprised as I was.

"It scares the hell out of me, you two are all I've got and Evelyn your just as much family in my books and I guess we are stronger as a family, so we go after this damn thing…together"

"Yes sir" we all replied in unison.
