BLOODLUST
Evie's POV
I was resting in the back of the Impala…after Dean's outburst…he'd finally fixed her back up and she was looking shinny and new again which of course had Dean over the moon happy to finally have his baby back in action especially given we were on our way to a new case but I was trying to sleep in the comfortable upholstery despite both the brothers trying to bench me when Sam found this case.
Dean and I were outside in the yard once again with him working on the Impala getting the newly painted body all polished and shiny as I rested back on one of the other cars leaning against the cool glass with my head back looking up at the sky battling against my sickness.
"Hey guys" I lifted my head seeing Sam walking towards us with his new laptop in his hand.
"What's up?" I asked sitting up shaking off the dizziness.
"A case…I think" he replied and I smiled since it was about time I'm beginning to go stir-crazy.
"Great let's go" I hopped off the hood and Dean looked over at me disapprovingly making me roll my eyes since the last week he'd been beyond protective and scolding me for the simplest tasks he was deeming dangerous in my…condition as he called it but he never dared say anything around my father given we still haven't told him.
"Not going to happen Shortstack" Dean said and I turned to him.
"What?" I asked with a slight glare. "And why not and if you say this I'll shoot you" I pointed at my stomach which was still flat thank god but I knew it wouldn't be too much longer before I was beginning to show and have to tell my father.
"Because it's dangerous" he replied and I rolled my eyes.
"Dean you think operating the stove is dangerous-"
"Alright fine it's suicidal!" he exclaimed.
"I'm not stupid Dean and I refuse to be here useless, I can help with the researching and I don't want to be apart right now" I argued staring him right in the eyes. "I'm going Dean and nothing you or Sam do is going to stop me" he glared at me but then sighed deeply before he turned to Sam and they shared one of their looks.
"Fine but you listen to every word I say without argument, got it?" Dean finally said and I nodded but saw Sam turned to me almost seeing if I was going to change my mind since he could be just as bad as Dean if not worse as he was trying to control what I was eating as of late.
"Whoo!" Dean yelled out making me jump a little and open my eyes. "Listen to her purr, you ever heard anything so sweet?" Dean asked and I scoffed.
"If you two wanna get a room just let me know Dean" Sam joked back and I let out a small laugh.
"Oh don't listen to him baby, he doesn't understand us" Dean replied and this time Sam and I both let out another laugh.
"You're in a good mood" Sam stated looking over at Dean.
"Why shouldn't I be?" Dean asked looking back at him and Sam shrugged his shoulders.
"No reason"
"I got my car, my stubborn ass pregnant girlfriend-" I glared at the mirror seeing him looking back at me in it. "Got a case, things are looking up"
"Wow…give you a couple of severed heads and a pile of dead cows and your Mr Sunshine" Sam replied and Dean's response was to laugh.
"How far to Red Lodge?" he asked Sam.
"Uh…about another 300 miles" Sam replied and I frowned since car rides still made me nauseous.
"Good" Dean nodded and stepped on the gas.
As soon as we reached Red Lodge our first step was the police station posing as reporters meaning we were dressed tidy and neat in suits easily convincing our parts and were let back into the Sheriff's office but he was less than willing to release much more information to us meaning a pain in the ass already.
"The murder investigation is ongoing, that's all I can share with the press"
"Sure, sure we understand that but just for the record" Sam cut in. "You found the first head last week, correct?" he nodded at Sam. "Okay and the other…a Christina Flanagan-"
"It was two days ago, then-"
"Excuse me sir" a woman interrupted knocking on the door then tapped her watch.
"Oh thank you" he replied to her then looked back towards us. "Sorry times up, we're done here"
"One last question" Sam quickly said before he had the chance to kick us out.
"Yeah what about the cattle?" Dean added.
"Excuse me?" the Sheriff asked.
"You know the cows found dead…split open and drained over a dozen cases?" Dean clarified.
"What about them?" he asked looking at Dean like he was nuts.
"So you don't think there's a connection?" I asked him.
"Connection with…?"
"First cattle mutilations now…now uh two murders kind of sounds like ritual stuff" Sam replied.
"You know like satanic-cult ritual stuff" Dean added and the Sheriff burst out laughing.
"You…" he said while still laughing but stopped seeing our serious looks. "…you're not kidding"
"No" Dean replied shaking his head.
"Those cows arent being mutilated, you wanna know how I know?" he replied.
"How?" Sam asked.
"Because there's no such thing as cattle mutilation, cow drops leave it in the sun within 48hrs the bloat will split it open so clean it's just about surgical, the bodily fluids fall down into the ground get soaked up because that's what gravity does" the Sheriff replied and the whole time he was speaking I was feeling the bile come up my throat but I forced it down but not enough that Dean didn't notice my face going pale as I thought of the sick thoughts which was enough to make me want to throw up. "But hey…it could be Satan, what newspaper did you say you work for?"
"World Weekly News" Dean replied after clearing his throat saying it backwards.
"Weekly World News" Sam corrected and Dean continued to stutter out the wrong thing having realised his mistake.
"I'm new" he finally replied to play it off.
"Get out of my office" the Sheriff finally said and so we did just that.
Our next stop was Candler County Hospital where the two victims bodies were being stored, we stole a couple of doctor coats then found the morgue and just opening the door without knocking being confidant as that was the best way to play a role as the way John taught us.
"John…" Dean called guessing the kid at the desks name after looking at his name badge.
"Jeff" he corrected.
"Jeff…I know that, Dr Dworkin needs to see you in his office right away" Dean replied having done our research of all the doctors that practiced here.
"But Dr Dworkin's on vacation" the kid argued and I refrained from rolling my eyes since we should have known that.
"Well he's back and he's pissed and he's screaming for you man so if I were you I would-" Dean said and the kid's face went into a panic as he practically ran out of the room and Sam closed the door behind him. "Hey those Satanist's in Florida they marked their victims didn't they?" Dean asked once the door was closed.
"Yeah, reverse pentacle on the forehead" I replied nodding my head as I walked over with Sam and he held out gloves for the both of us.
"Yeah so much F'd up crap happens in Florida" I rolled my eyes at Dean as Sam walked over to the cold storage and opened up one of the doors wheeling one of the bodies out and I stepped back letting them do it not sure I could stomach it. "Alright open it" he nodded towards the box which no doubt held the head.
"You open it" Sam countered.
"You wuss" Dean replied picking up the head and walked over to the table where I was putting it down then flipped the top off and I felt an all new urge to throw up. "Well no pentagram" Dean added seeing the severed head of a girl inside then looked up at me seeing I was pale all over again and he smiled. "Wished you stayed home now?" he asked and I looked up glaring at him.
"Wow, poor girl" Sam added having come over.
"Maybe we should uh…you know look in her mouth, see if those wackos stuffed anything down her throat, you know like the moth in Silence of the Lambs?" Dean asked looking at me with a smile and I intensified my glare knowing he was trying to make his point by seeing how far he could take it before the urge to be sick won.
"Yeah, yeah go ahead" I replied and reached out turning the box to him.
"No you go ahead" Dean turning it back to me.
"What?" I asked since he couldn't actually be serious.
"Put the lotion in the basket" he replied and I rolled my eyes at him before turning to Sam with a pleading look.
"Right yeah, I'm the wuss huh?" Sam finally cut in and I smiled.
"Well I'm pregnant, I have an excuse"
"Yeah well you should've stayed home then" Dean spoke up and I frowned over at him.
"Alright" Sam cut in then took in a deep breath before he stuck his fingers into her mouth and even seeing him doing it made me sick.
"Dean get me a bucket" I said and he turned to me with worry now instead of joking.
"I second that" Sam added.
"Why you find something?" Dean asked him.
"No I'm gonna puke" Sam replied and I scoffed.
"Welcome to my world Sammy" I added and Dean shook his head at me looking back down at the girl's head as Sam pulled his fingers out.
"Wait, lift her lip again" he said making me reluctantly look back down at the severed head.
"What, you want me to throw up?" Sam argued.
"No, no, no I think I saw something" Dean said then lifted the lip himself. "What is that, a hole?" he asked seeing it then pushed down and a narrow sharp tooth descended out of it.
"It's a tooth" Sam said but I shook my head.
"Sam that's a fang" I countered as Dean let it go and it sunk back into the gum.
"A retractable set of vampire fangs, you gotta be kidding me" Dean added.
"Well this changes things" Sam said and I looked up with a raised eyebrow.
"You think?"
"We gotta another player in town" Dean added before closing up the box putting it back and we made sure it all looked like it had before we left driving around to all the local bars trying to think we're this nest of vampires might hang out and finally found a likely candidate so Dean parked and we went in heading straight for the bar. "How's it going?" Dean asked the bartender.
"Living the dream" he replied. "What can I get for you?"
"Two beers and a club soda, please" Dean replied as I sighed because I was really missing the taste of alcohol.
"So were looking for some people" Sam added as the guy turned grabbing the two beers twisting the lids off.
"Sure it's hard to be lonely" the guy replied looking at Sam.
"Yeah but that's not what I meant" Sam argued pulling out a $50 dollar note and placed it on the bar and the guy took it. "Great so these people they would've moved here about six months ago, probably pretty rowdy like to drink"
"Yeah real night owls, you know sleep all day party all night" Dean added.
"Barker Farm got leased out a couple months ago, real winners they've been in here a lot…drinkers, noisy I had to eighty-six them once or twice" the bartender replied sliding a freshly poured cub soda towards me and I looked up loving how he just assumed it was for me.
"Thanks" I responded both for the information and the drink then drank it in one go as the boys polished off the last of their beers then we turned and walked out heading around the back parking lot where the Impala was parked but we were on alert just having that feeling we were being followed.
Dean nodded his head for me to get behind the Impala once we reached her and I nodded ducking around the side bending down as they too hid just in time to see someone come from the direction we had but when he didn't see us he turned back around and the boys took that opportunity to sneak up behind him so that when he turned around again they were there and pushed him against the wall with Dean pressing his blade to his throat.
"Smile" Dean told him.
"What?" the guy asked as I stood up and walked over.
"Show us those pearly whites" Dean clarified.
"Oh for the love of-" he said then cut himself off. "You wanna stick that thing someplace else, I'm not a vampire" he added and our faces hardened. "That's right I heard you guys…and gal" I rolled my eyes.
"What do you know about vampires?" Sam asked him.
"How to kill them" he replied looking over at him with his eyes. "Now seriously bro that knife's making me itch" we just continued to stare at him and when he realised we weren't gonna let up he started to lift up his hand.
"Hey!" Sam protested slamming hand against the wall.
"Whoa easy there Chachi" he said and continued moving his hand as Sam let up a little and he lifted up his gum to reveal nothing, no holes. "See…fangless, happy?" he asked looking at Dean and they finally stepped back with Dean dropping the knife. "Now, who the hell are you?" he asked and we quickly shared a look all nodding at each other before we turned back to him.
"I'm Dean, this is my brother Sam…Winchester and this is Evelyn Singer" Dean introduced us and the guy suddenly smiled.
"Gordon, Gordon Walker" he introduced himself before he led us towards his car, a red Chevy El Camino opening it and reached in pulling out a hand-built weapons compartment. "Sam and Dean Winchester and of course Evelyn Singer, I can't believe it" he replied and I frowned crossing my arms over my chest. "You know I met your old man once, hell of a guy great hunter…I heard he passed I'm sorry" he added and I was surprised it had travelled the hunter vine already. "That's big shoes but from what I hear you guys fill them, great trackers, good in a tight spot"
"Seem to know a lot about our family" Dean replied and by the anxious hand out in front of me he was nervous with this guy and we had a right to be.
"Word travels fast" he shot back. "You know how hunters talk"
"No we don't actually" I replied since we didn't know a lot of hunters.
"I guess there's a lot your dad never told you, huh?" he asked looking at Sam and Dean.
"So uh…so those two vampires, they were yours"
"Yep been here two weeks" he replied.
"Did you check out that Barker Farm?" Dean asked him.
"A bust, just a bunch of hippie freaks though they could kill you with that patchouli smell" he replied.
"Where's the nest, then?" I cut in and he smiled pushing his weapons back.
"I got this one covered…look don't get me wrong it's a real pleasure meeting you's but I've been on this thing for over a year, I killed a fang back in Austin tracked the nest all the way up here…I'll finish it" he argued and I frowned.
"We could help" Dean said.
"Thanks but I'm a go-it-alone type of guy" he protested again.
"Come on man, I've been itching for a hunt" Dean argued with him.
"Sorry but hey I hear there's a Chupacabra two states over, go ahead and knock yourselves out" he replied then got into his car. "It was real good meeting you though, I'll buy you a drink on the flip side" he added before starting his car and drove off.
"Now what?" I asked turning back at Dean.
"Now we follow him" he replied walking over to the Impala getting in so Sam and I wordlessly followed getting in knowing Dean was out for a hunt so it was best to just go along with him.
We followed Gordon to an old timber mill that was closed for the night, we saw Gordon get out of his car and waited until it was safe before we got out and followed him in right to the sounds of a struggle and saw him on his back underneath someone slowly pulling a saw down to cut his head off.
Sam ran forward and grabbed Gordon's legs and pulled him out of the way of the saw while Dean wasted no time grabbing the nearest thing for a weapon and used it to hit the vampire as it hissed at him with fangs out before Dean kicked his off his feet making him fall back and plunged the hook into his chest before lowering the saw and blood sprayed Dean's face as Sam and I looked on in shock.
"So I guess I gotta buy you that drink" Gordon said as he laughed but Dean was looking at Sam and I as we both stared right at him not sure what to think about what just happened or if this hunt was actually a good idea.
After Dean had cleaned up we went back to the bar from earlier and they got a round of drinks and Dean was laughing it up with Gordon having bonding over what just happened but I wasn't really happy with this since something was just wrong with Gordon, a waitress came over with their next round and Dean immediately reached for his wallet but Gordon held up a finger.
"No, no I got it" he pulled out his own wallet and pulled out some cash putting it on the waitress' tray. "Another one bites the dust" Gordon toasted holding up his shot glass.
"That's right" Dean agreed clinking his glass with his before the threw the drinks back, I looked up at Sam taking a sip of my club soda.
"Dean…you gave that bid-ass fang one hell of a haircut my friend" Gordon said and I turned to him with a frown.
"Thank you" Dean replied so I turned to him and he looked at me raising an eye at me.
"That was beautiful, absolutely beautiful"
"Well…you alright Sammy?" Dean asked turning to Sam seeing him in the same mood I was.
"Yeah I'm fine" Sam replied.
"Well lighten up a little Sammy" Gordon said and Sam turned to glare at him.
"They're the only ones that get to call me that" Sam told him nodding over at me and Dean making me smile.
"Okay no offence mean, just celebrating a little job well done"
"Right well decapitations aren't our idea of a good time" Sam replied.
"Oh come on man it's not like it was human, you gotta have fun with your job" Gordon argued making me frown even more.
"That's what I've been trying to tell him, you could learn a thing or two from this guy" I turned to Dean with a look because I didn't think we should be learning anything from Gordon as something still didn't seem right to me about any of this.
"Yeah I bet I could, look I'm not gonna bring you guys down I'm just gonna go back to the motel" Sam replied and I sighed really wishing I was going with him but I didn't want to leave Dean alone with this guy.
"Are you sure?" Dean asked him.
"Yeah" Sam nodded standing up and headed for the exit.
"Sammy" Dean called getting him to pause. "Remind me to beat the buzz kill out of you later, alright?" he said as he threw him the Impala keys and Sam looked down at me as if asking me if I was going but I shook my head and he frowned disapprovingly.
"Something I said?" Gordon asked as my eyes followed Sam until he was gone.
"No he just gets that way sometimes" Dean replied as I turned back and we shared a look before he took another drink out of his glass and I watched with longing really wishing I could drink as it'd make this night more bearable for the fact I was stuck here babysitting my boyfriend. "Tell you what…match quarters next round" Dean quickly added raising the shot glass at him.
"You're on, Evelyn you game?" Gordon asked and I turned to look at him.
"Nah man she can't" Dean replied for me and I spun my head back to him with a hard glare since I didn't want this creep knowing I was pregnant especially since we didn't know him.
"Why?" Gordon asked and Dean looked at me apologetic having realised what he said.
"He meant won't, I don't drink much" I shrugged and he seemed to accept that and they went on ordering another round while I was stuck here drinking club soda listening to them start sharing stories.
"…so I pick up this crossbow and I hit that ugly sucker with a silver tipped arrow right in his heart, Sammy's waiting in the car and uh…me and my dad take the thing into the woods and burn it to a crisp" I sighed leaning back further in my seat kicking up legs up on an unoccupied chair as Dean continued his story about a werewolf hunt he'd been on with John when he was sixteen, I'd heard it before. "I'm sitting there and I'm looking into the fire and I'm thinking to myself 'I'm 16 years old, kids my age are worried about pimples, prom dates I'm seeing things that they'll never even know, never even dream of' so right then I just sort of-"
"Embraced the life?" Gordon asked guessing Dean's next words and Dean nodded making me frown as I looked up at him feeling like he was telling his guy a little too much and I certainly wasn't liking it.
"So how'd you get started?" I finally spoke up looking at Gordon feeling he knew enough about us.
"First time I saw a vampire I was barely 18, home alone with my sister I hear the window break in her room I grab my dad's gun run in try to get it off her, it was too late so I shoot the damn thing which is about as useful as snapping it with a rubber band, it rushes at me picks me up flings me across the room knocks me out cold" I frowned since this did seem genuine. "When I wake up the vampires gone…my sisters gone"
"And then?" Dean asked engrossed with the story.
"Then…try explaining that one to your family" he replied and Dean nodded. "So I left home and then bummed around looking for information, how you track them, how you kill them and I found that fang…it was my first kill"
"Sorry about your sister" Dean replied raising his glass.
"Yeah…she was beautiful, I can still see her you know…the way she was" he said before taking a drink. "But hey that was a long time ago, I mean your dad it's gotta be rough"
"Yeah" Dean agreed and I turned my head towards him with surprise. "Yeah you know, he was just one of those guys took some terrible beatings and just kept coming so your always saying to yourself you know 'he's indestructible, he'll always be around nothing can kill my dad' and just like that-" he snapped his fingers. "He's gone" I frowned reaching for his hand under the table squeezing it. "I can't talk about this to Sammy, you know I gotta keep my game face on" my frown deepened hating that he felt this way since talking to his brother was probably the best thing. "But uh…but the truth is I'm not handling it very well…feel like I have this-"
"Hole inside you?" Gordon asked once again guessing. "And it just gets bigger and bigger, and darker and darker?" he asked and Dean looked at him but my eyes stayed locked on Dean with worry because I knew he wasn't handling John's death but couldn't understand why he was opening up to his guy when he wouldn't open up to Sam or me. "Good you can use it" Gordon said and I finally turned to him with an angry look. "Keeps you hungry, trust me there's plenty out there needs killing and this'll help you do it, Dean it's not a crime to need your job" he added and my frown deepened finally having enough of this guy.
"I think I'm gonna go, call it a night" I said then stood and looked down at Dean expectantly. "You coming?" I asked and he looked up at me.
"Stay" he said and I frowned ready to shake my head but he looked at me with his best Sammy mock puppy dog eyes and when a Winchester gave you that look you never could say no.
"Alright but I need to use the bathroom" I replied moving across the bar hearing some guy whistle as I passed making me roll my eyes before I pushed the door open for the girls bathroom then closed it behind me and flipped the lock before pulling out my phone and decided to call my Dad because something wasn't right.
"Evelyn?" he asked and I knew it was late and that I'd probably woken him up.
"Hey daddy"
"You alright babycakes?" he asked probably hearing the tone in my voice that I was uneasy about something.
"I don't know, I need some fatherly wisdom" I replied.
"Shoot?" he replied so I took a deep breath.
"You ever heard of a Gordon Walker?" I asked him.
"Why?" he asked and now I could tell he was weary of my neck answer.
"Cause the boys and I ran into him working this case and now we're sort of working with him-"
"Evelyn you listen to me, you forget about this hunt"
"Why, what's wrong dad?" I asked more worried now than ever since very rarely does my dad sound this way.
"He's good at his job, wiped out plenty of vampires but I don't want you or those boys messing around with him, he's dangerous"
"What do you mean Dad, dangerous how?" I asked casting an anxious look towards the door regretting leaving Dean with him.
"Never you mind that, just let him work this job and you guys walk away, you hear me" I frowned hesitating. "Evelyn Robin Singer, I mean it"
"Okay!" I said hating it when he used my full name. "I'll get the boys and we'll be leaving first thing"
"Good girl" I rolled my eyes. "Don't sass me young lady"
"I wasn't!" I exclaimed but couldn't help the small smile, my old man knew me too well. "Love you Dad"
"Love you to babycakes" he replied before I hung up and went back out seeing them exactly where I'd left them and knew there was only one way I was gonna get Dean to leave…I was gonna have to play the baby card.
"…I'm not sure Sammy would agree with you but…" I heard Dean say as I approached answering whatever Gordon had said.
"Doesn't seem like your brother's much like us" Gordon replied and I frowned since after what my dad told me there was no us. "I'm not saying he's wrong just different, you and me we were born to do this it's in our blood" he added and my frown deepened having enough so I continued over to them and they both looked up but my eyes were on Dean as I tried to give my best performance of appearing sick.
"We need to go" I said and he frowned until I run a subtle hand over my stomach and he saw it instantly changing to worry.
"You okay?" he asked trying not to panic too much in front of Gordon.
"Yeah I've just got a headache and don't want to walk back to the motel alone" he nodded with a small frown but then turned to Gordon.
"Let's go back to our motel, we can try to find the nest" it was my turn to frown since that wasn't what I meant.
"Sure" Gordon agreed making me sigh since I couldn't very well say he couldn't now without looking suspicious.
We walked back to the motel and I listened to them continue their talk before we made it to the motel letting ourselves in but Dean and I both frowned not seeing Sammy anywhere but he didn't seem to think about it too long before they both sat down starting to talk about their theories on where the vampire nest was as I sat on one of the beds grabbing out my journal and pretended to write as I listened to them.
"This is the best pattern I can establish, it's sketchy at best"
"Looks like it's all coming from this side of town, the nest would be around here right?" Dean asked him.
"Yeah that's what I'm thinking problem is there's 35…40 farms out there, I've searched about half of them already but nothing yet their covering their tracks real good"
"Well I guess we'll just have to search the other half" Dean replied and I rolled my eyes looking down at my watch seeing it was getting real late and I was getting more worried about Sam because this wasn't like him.
"Where is Sam?" I asked standing up and peered out the curtains.
"Car's parked outside, probably went for a walk seems like the take-a-walk type-" Gordon said and I turned with a small glare at him getting involved.
"Yeah he is but-" I was cut off when the door opened and Sam walked in, I immediately turned towards him crossing my arms over my chest giving him an annoyed look for making me worry like this.
"Where you been?" Dean asked him.
"Can I talk to you's alone?" Sam asked looking at me and Dean.
"You mind chilling out for a couple minutes?" Dean asked looking back at Gordon who shook his head so we went outside to talk.
"We gotta rethink this hunt" Sam said as soon as Dean closed the door.
"What are you talking about, where were you?" I asked him confused.
"In the nest" Sam replied and my eyes widened in shock.
"You found it?" Dean and I asked him at the same time.
"They found me" he replied and my face went back to confusion.
"How'd you get out, how many did you kill?" Dean asked him.
"None" Sam shrugged.
"Well Sam they didn't just let you go" Dean argued confused as I was since none of this was making sense.
"That's exactly what they did" Sam replied and I stopped in front of him.
"Alright, well where is it?" Dean asked him.
"I was blindfolded, I don't know" Sam shrugged shaking his head.
"You gotta know something" Dean protested.
"We went over that bridge but Dean listen maybe we shouldn't go after them"
"Why not?" I asked him shaking my head in confusion.
"I don't think they're like other vampires, I don't think they're killing anyone" Sam argued and I frowned sharing a look with Dean confused.
"You're joking" Dean asked turning back to Sam but Sam remained serious. "Then how do they stay alive or undead or whatever the hell they are?" Dean asked him.
"The cattle mutilations, they said they live off of animal blood" Sam replied.
"And you believed them?" Dean asked and I sighed.
"Look at me Dean, they let me go without a scratch" Sam exclaimed throwing his hands out drastically.
"Wait so you're saying…" Dean asked but trailed off. "No man, no way I don't know why they let you go I don't really care, we find them and we waste them" Dean finished then headed back towards the motel room.
"Why?" Sam asked making him stop.
"What part of 'vampires' don't you understand, Sam?" Dean argued with him. "If its supernatural we kill it, end of story that's our job"
"No Dean that is not our job, our job is hunting evil and if these things aren't killing they're not evil"
"Of course they're killing people!" Dean exclaimed. "That's what they do, they're all the same Sam they're not human, okay we have to exterminate every last one of them"
"No Dean, I don't think so alright not this time" Sam argued and I frowned once again caught between them not knowing which one to side with as they both had good arguments.
"Gordon's been on those vamps for a year man, he knows" Dean argued pointing back at the room.
"Gordon, your taking his word for it?" Sam asked him.
"That's right" Dean replied and I frowned furrowing my eyes at Dean since there was one thing I didn't agree as he said that because I still didn't trust Gordon and never would.
"Ellen says he's bad news" Sam protested.
"You called Ellen?" Dean asked him and Sam nodded. "And I'm supposed to listen to her, we barely know her aside from Evie, no thanks I'll go with Gordon"
"Because Gordon's such an old friend" I cut in looking at Dean. "If you can't trust Ellen's word then what about my Dad who said almost the exact same thing when I called him at the bar" I added and Dean stared at me like he was thinking about what he was saying but was coming up with nothing.
"You think I can't see what this is?" Sam spoke up .
"What are you talking about?" Dean asked turning towards him.
"He's a substitute for Dad, a poor one" Sam replied and I frowned turning to him because that was harsh.
"Shut up Sam" Dean retorted turning to head back towards the room.
"He's not even close Dean, not on his best day"
"You know I'm not gonna talk-"
"You know you slap on this big fake smile but I can see right through it cause I know how you feel Dean, Dad's dead and he left a hole and it hurts so bad you can't take it but you can't just fill that hole with whoever you want to" Sam replied and I shook my head since once again he was harsh and unnecessary. "It's an insult to his memory"
"Okay" Dean said and went to turn around but he suddenly turned right back and swung his fist colliding with Sam's face.
"Dean!" I yelled moving forward checking Sam's face when he turned back to Dean holding his hand near his eye but there was no blood yet he was going to have a shiner. "What's the matter with you?" I asked glaring at Dean.
"You hit me all you want" Sam cut in glaring at him. "It won't change anything"
"I'm going to that nest, you don't wanna tell me where it is fine I'll find it myself" Dean said then turned and walked inside.
"Dean!" I called after him as I followed him inside.
"Gordon?" Dean asked as we looked around and didn't see Gordon anywhere.
"You think he went after them?" Sam asked having followed us in.
"Probably" Dean replied.
"Dean we have to stop him" Sam replied.
"Really Sam because I say we lend a hand"
"Just give me the benefit of the doubt would you" Sam replied and I nodded turning to Dean.
"You owe him that" I added with a glare remembering the punch outside.
"Yeah, we'll see I'll drive give me the keys" Dean replied holding his hand out towards Sam but he pointed towards the bench at a little cactus ceramic but frowned.
"He snaked the keys" we all shared a look filled with anger before we went outside to the Impala and Dean reached under the steering wheel in attempts to hotwire it.
"I can't believe this, I just fixed her up too" he complained flicking the two wires together finally getting 'baby' to start then turned to Sam. "The bridge, is that all you got?"
"The bridge was four and a half minutes from their farm" Sam replied looking down at a map in his lap.
"How do you know?" I asked him.
"I counted" he replied and I laughed a little.
"They took a left out of their farm, then turned right onto a dirt road followed that for two minutes slightly uphill then took another quick right and we hit the bridge"
"Your good, a massive pain in the ass but you're good" Dean commented then turned around towards me. "Alright Eve, inside"
"What?" I asked looking at him in shock.
"You remember our deal for you even coming on this hunt"
"Dean come on, you can't be serious"
"I am!" he argued so I turned to Sam.
"Sam!" I exclaimed hoping for some back-up but he just stared at me impassively. "Sammy!"
"Sorry Eve I agree with Dean, Gordon could be dangerous" I glared at him crossing my arms leaning back in the seat refusing to get out.
"Get out Evie" Dean added and I glared at him.
"Nope" I replied and he glared right back at me.
"Get out"
"No"
"Get out"
"No"
"Enough!" Sam cut in getting Dean and I to stop. "Your both acting like children"
"No I'm not!" Dean and I exclaimed at the same time.
"We're wasting time, we need to go" Sam argued and with one final glare back at me before he put the Impala into drive and pulled out of the parking lot following Sam's directions sharing a few looks every now and then seeing Dean still stewing in anger.
We finally arrived at a farm house and saw Gordon's car parked so I was taking a wild guess saying this was it, we got out heading inside and saw Gordon with a girl vamp tied down with blood covering her.
"Sam, Dean, Evelyn come on in" Gordon said seeing us walk in.
"Gordon, what's going on?" Dean asked him.
"Just poisoning Lenore here with some dead man's blood, she's gonna tell us where all her little friends are" Gordon replied looking back at us. "Wanna help?" he asked and I frowned.
"Look man-"
"Grab a knife" Gordon said cutting Dean off. "I was just about to start in on the fingers" he added slicing the blade over the vamp's forearm poisoning her even more.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa hey let's all just chill out huh?" Dean asked him.
"I'm completely chill" Gordon argued.
"Gordon put the knife down" Sam cut in going to move towards him but Dean held his hand out stopping him.
"Sounds like it's Sammy that needs to chill" I glared at him.
"Just step away from her, alright?" Sam asked him and Gordon looked at him before looking down at Lenore when she choked a little.
"You're right" he replied dropping the knife down onto the table. "I'm wasting my time here, this bitch will never talk" he added pulling out a machete. "Might as well put her out of her misery, I just sharpened it so its completely humane"
"Gordon I'm letting her go" Sam insisted moving towards Lenore but Gordon moved holding the machete up to his chest.
"You're not doing a damn thing!"
"Hey, hey, hey Gordon let's talk about this" Dean cut in moving around the table.
"What's there to talk about?" Gordon asked him. "It's like I said Dean, no shades of gray"
"Yeah I hear you and I know how you feel" Dean replied.
"Do you?" Gordon asked him.
"The vampire that killed your sister deserved to die, but this-" Gordon laughed causing Dean to stop.
"Killed my sister?" Gordon asked not really talking to anybody. "That filthy fang didn't kill my sister, it turned her made her one of them so I hunter her down and I killed her myself" he added and my eyes widened as I moved to stand beside Sam to stare at Gordon in shock, how could you kill your own blood like that and show no remorse.
"You did what?" Dean asked him.
"Wasn't my sister anymore, it wasn't human I didn't blink and neither would you" Gordon replied pointing the machete at Dean making me glare.
"So you knew all along?" Sam asked him. "You knew about the vampires, you knew they weren't killing anyone, you knew about the cattle you just didn't care"
"Care about what, a nest of vampires suddenly acting nice taking a little time out from sucking innocent people and we're supposed to buy that, trust me doesn't change what they are and I can't prove it" Gordon replied then reached out grabbing my arm moving the blade across my skin cutting it open as he pressed the machete against my throat moving me towards Lenore.
"Let her go!" Dean yelled raising his gun pointing it at Gordon but he didn't let up with the grip on me. "Now!"
"Relax" Gordon said looking at him for a second before back at me making sure I wasn't going to try and do anything but my eyes were locked on Dean. "If I wanted to kill her, he'd already be on the floor" he added which only served to piss Dean off more. "Just making a little point" he said moving my arm right above Lenore's head making the blood begin dripping down onto her and her fangs descended making me flinch.
"Hey" Dean yelled looking down at the vampire.
"You think she's so different?" Gordon asked him. "Still wanna save her, look at her" Dean's eyes dropped back to the vampire that was snarling up at my arm which was still dripping blood onto her face. "They'll all the same…evil, bloodthirsty-" the vamp's fangs retracted and she turned away from the blood.
"No…no" she moaned out.
"You hear her, Gordon?" Sam asked looking up at Gordon.
"No, no" Lenore continued to say and I used his shock to push him away from me taking a step back until Sam grabbed me and moved me behind his body shielding me.
"We're done here" Sam added and I turned to Dean seeing him dropping his gun.
"Sam get her out of here" Dean said and at first I thought he was talking about me but he was looking at the vampire and I smiled since about time he saw Gordon for what he is…a psycho.
"Yeah" Sam nodded moving towards Lenore and picked her up. "I've got you"
"Uhuh…Uhuh" Dean warned when Gordon tried to move to stop him and raised the gun back at him as Sam and I moved back towards him. "Gordon I think you and I got some things to talk about" he added as soon as Sam was out of the room and I stopped beside him holding my hand over the wound.
"Get out of my way" Gordon warned.
"Sorry" Dean replied.
"You're not serious?" Gordon asked us.
"Having a hard time believing it but I know what I saw, if you want those vampires you gotta go through me"
"Us" I added looking up seeing Dean look down quickly with a small glare that told me I was pushing it but when we looked back up at Gordon he slammed his machete into the table before looking back at us.
"Fine" he nodded and Dean stood still for a second before lowering his gun and unclipping the mag so I clicked out into his hand.
"Evelyn outside now" he told me but I shook my head and Gordon used his distraction to move forward and punched Dean square in the jaw but Dean was quick to retaliate punching Gordon who fell into the table and picked up his machete again.
Dean glared at him reaching back pushing me back as gently as he could to get me out of the way as Gordon swung the blade around but Dean grabbed the arm holding the blade and used the momentum to throw him against the wall and slammed his hand against the archway corner causing the blade to fall out of his hand.
"What are you doing man, you doing this for a fang?" Gordon asked grabbing Dean's jacket lapels moving him back. "Come on Dean, we're on the same side here" he added and I hated standing here doing nothing.
"I don't think so you sadistic bastard, you hurt my girlfriend" Dean spat back at him but Gordon hit him in the face before kicking him back sending him flying pass me landing against a coffee table breaking it.
"Hey!" I yelled moving forward.
"Evelyn no!" Dean yelled getting to his knees.
"You're not like your brother, you're a killer like me" Gordon added moving forward but Dean swung his leg out knocking Gordon off his feet then got the upper hand punching him in the face before picking him up and threw him into a glass display case then grabbed his shirt turning Gordon around to face him blocking a punch Gordon tried to send his way then elbowed Gordon in the face who was teetering on consciousness before hooking his arm over his shoulders into a headlock moving back towards the big table but knocked his head into the wall.
"Oh sorry" Dean said and I couldn't help a small laugh then dropped him into a chair and grabbed out some ropes trying him down into it. "You know…I might be like you and I might not but you're the one tied up right now" Dean told him before walking towards me and looked down at the cut before grabbing the side of my shirt ripping a piece off the bottom and used it to tie around my wound to help stop the blood flow.
"Your not like him" I whispered and he looked at me with a look that said 'not now' then turned back to Gordon as we watched him waiting for Sam to get back and after about an hour we heard the Impala's engine stop outside and the door opening as he came in.
"I missing anything?" Sam asked and we both turned to him.
"Eh not much" Dean replied and I rolled my eyes.
"Lenore get out okay?" I asked him.
"Yeah" Sam replied looking down at Gordon. "All of them did"
"Then I guess our work here is done" Dean replied turning back to look down at Gordon also. "How you doing Gordy…you gotta tinkle yet?" I rolled my eyes at Dean listening to dead silence coming from Gordon. "Alright well get comfy, we'll call someone in two or three days have them come out, untie you" Dean smirked slamming Gordon's machete down into the table again.
"Ready to go guys?" Sam asked us.
"Not yet" I replied holding my hand up against his chest moving to stand in front of Gordon. "This is goodbye asshole" I said looking at him with a smirk then pulled my fist back and collided it into his jaw sending him falling back as the force knocked the chair over. "Okay, I'm good now" I added turning to the boys seeing them both smiling at me. "We can go" I walked out with Dean right beside me taking my hand as we walked down the stairs with me flexing my other arm the one Gordon cut.
"Sam" Dean said suddenly stopping.
"Yeah?" Sam asked stopping too turning to Dean.
"Clock me one" I frowned looking up at Dean in confusion.
"What?" Sam asked confused and looked at me but I shrugged having no idea what he was talking about.
"Come on, come on I won't even hit you back, let's go" I scoffed finally realizing what Dean was on about…the punch.
"No" Sam replied.
"Let's go you get a freebie, hit me come on"
"You look like you just went 12 rounds with a block of cement Dean, I'll take a rain check" Sam argued and I laughed shaking my head at the ridiculous behavior.
"I wish we never took this job, it's jacked everything up" Dean said accepting Sam's choice.
"What do you mean?" I asked him stopping at the back door looking across the roof at him.
"Think about all the hunts we went on, our whole lives?" Dean asked leaning his elbows on the roof.
"Okay" Sam and I said not sure where he was going with this.
"What if we killed things that didn't deserve killing?" he asked and I frowned looking down. "I mean the way Dad raised us…Bobby-"
"Dean after what happened to Mom, Dad did the best he could and so did Bobby" Sam replied looking down at me as I stood beside him at the last bit.
"I know they did but Dad wasn't perfect and the way he raised us to hate those things and man I hate them I do, when I killed that vampire at the mill I didn't even think about it…hell I even enjoyed it" I sighed nodding with a frown.
"You didn't kill Lenore" I told him trying to put a positive on this.
"Yeah but every instinct told me to, I was gonna kill her…I was gonna kill them all" Dean argued.
"Yeah Dean but you didn't and that's what matters" Sam replied and I nodded my agreement seeing Dean look away hesitating.
"Yeah" he finally said then turned back to us. "And because your both pains in my ass" he added making Sam and I both chuckle.
"Guess I might have to stick around and be a pain in the ass then" Sam replied and I chuckled again.
"Thanks" Dean said stopping Sam from getting into the Impala and he was sincere.
"Don't mention it" Sam replied with a smile getting in leaving Dean and I to share a small look.
"I'm not gonna hear the end of this am I?" I asked gesturing to my injured arm.
"Nope" he said with a serious face. "And we're telling your dad so I'll have someone to help me with you from now on" I stared at him shocked as he climbed into drivers side.
"Your joking right?" I asked getting into the back but he didn't say anything making me worry if he was serious or not.
He was serious, he drove us all the way back to Sioux Falls and I glared at him as he stopped outside the house but I refused to move crossing my arms over my chest not caring that I seemed like a petulant child right now since this was not the right way to tell my father he was gonna be a grandfather.
"Evie-"
"Stay out of it Sam" I snapped moving my glare towards him then turned back to Dean. "I'm not doing this"
"Eve I think it's time for him to know"
"Why?" I snapped at him.
"For one we need to-"
"Please you just want him to keep me home" I snapped.
"No I don't actually, I don't want to be apart from you" I looked up confused as did Sam.
"What?" I asked him.
"I can't protect you if your not with us so your coming along but we need to tell Bobby" I frowned since for god sake this man was confusing.
"Your really ready to tell my father that you knocked me up?" I asked and he looked back at me nodding his head. "I hate you" I mumbled and he smiled getting out so I followed him but we both turned back not hearing Sam get out.
"I'm gonna wait here" I glared at him.
"Wuss" I shot at him and he just smiled.
"Good luck" he told us making me roll my eyes before I turned back to Dean and we each shared a look before taking deep breathes and headed inside either to our doom or greatest shock if this didn't end up with a shotgun pointed at Dean's head.
A/N: Long time no update which I feel bad for but I just haven't had the time to write so I hope this one's okay. :)
