In the barn…
Lee entered and walked over to the control panel, inserted the key and twisted it.
Sam tensed from the back of his cage, "What are you doing?"
The door to his cage unlocked and Lee walked towards him. Sam noticed the bracket on the floor and grabbed it just as Lee opened the cage door and aimed his gun.
Kathleen yelled trying to distract the man, "Hey!"
Sam attacked as Lee fired and missed. Soon the two of them are both out of the cage and on the ground. Sam was on top of Lee as he grabbed the gun and hit Lee in the face with it three times. Lee collapsed on the ground and Sam tried to fire the gun, but it jammed.
Back in the living room…
As Jared moved towards the kitchen Dean struggled in his chair, "Dont touch her you son of a bitch!"
They all froze at the sound of a gunshot followed by another.
Dean struggled as he became even more panic struck, "You hurt my brother or my sister, I'll kill you, I swear. I'll kill you all. I will kill you all!"
Pa stood and walked towards the open front door, "Lee!" After a few seconds of no response or movement from the barn, Pa turned and looked directly at Jared who stood at the entrance of the kitchen, "Jared, you come with me. Missy, you watch him, now."
Jared grabbed two rifles and handed one off to Pa before they both left. Missy remained next to Dean as she held a knife dangerously close to his eye. As Lee and Jared entered the barn they kept their gun raised as they looked around.
"Lee! Where are ya?" Pa called, "Lee!" He stopped when he found Lee unconscious and locked in Sam's cage, "Damn it, Jared, get the lights!"
Jared moved over to the light switch and pushed it up but the barn remained dark, "They must have blown the fuses."
Pa tried the control panel, but it was broken. They moved into another room of the barn as Sam hid behind a bale of hay. Jared looked around in one area of the room, while Pa climbed a ladder leading to a balcony. Kathleen moved to a cabinet, unseen, and opened it, but when she heard a noise and stopped. Jared also heard something and walked to the cabinet, standing to face it. He fired his rifle several times at the doors, but Kathleen didn't come out. When Jared opened the cabinet, he found nothing inside but tools. He looked around the barn, when, suddenly, Kathleen fell on top of his back. She wrapped her arms around his neck and wrestled with him, before being knocked to the ground. Meanwhile, Pa chased after Sam. He fired his rifle twice, but Sam escaped.
While Kathleen is on the ground, Jaren aimed his gun at her, "You stupid bitch."
He got ready to shoot her, but Sam entered, "Hey!"
Jared turned and fired at Sam but Sam quickly dodged it. At the same moment, Pa walked in behind Sam and got hit with the bullet instead. He fell to the ground as Jared cocked the gun and turned around. Sam appeared behind him and grabbed the gun, hitting Jared in the face with the rifle several times until he collapsed, unconscious.
Sam placed Jared in Kathleen's cage and closed the door. He walked to the control panel and locked the cage before making his way over to Kathleen, who was standing over Pa, with her gun raised.
"I'll watch this one. You go ahead." Sam stared at her motionless, "Go ahead."
Reluctantly Sam left as Pa growled up at her, "You hurt my family, I'm gonna bleed you, bitch."
Kathleen spoke through emotion as tears fell down her face, "You killed my brother."
"Your brother?" He laughed cruelly, "Now I see."
"Just tell me why."
Pa smiled, "Because it's fun."
He cackled as Kathleen looked at him horrified. Angrily she fired the gun into his chest, killing him.
Back in the house…
Angel laid on the table tensely as she listened for any movement in the house. It seemed like her heart was pumping so loud she couldn't hear anything else. A creak at the kitchen entrance had her panicking and struggling with the ropes around her wrists. She jumped when two men came to her side but instantly relaxed when she saw it was her brothers. Dean instantly took his jacket off and covered her with it before they cut her loose.
When her hands were free she took the gag out of her mouth, "Thank god you guys are alive." She took them in for a tight hug, "Where the hell are those psychos?"
"Locked up in the cages." Sam explained as they helped her off the table, "Kids in the closet."
Dean looked down at her, "Are you okay? They didn't- I mean they said they were going to-"
"No, no." Angel quickly shook her head when she understood what he was trying to ask, "Those hillbilly freaks wanted to breed me like some farm animal but they didn't get the chance." She grimaced and held her cut up side as she walked with them, noticing their worried looks, "I'll be fine." She frowned, "It could've been worse, trust me. I don't think I was the first one." She shook her head, "They had like a whole room set up for me."
As the boys helped her walk out the front door and down the porch steps they met up with Kathleen who was leaving the barn.
"Where's the girl?"
"Locked her in a closet." Dean answered, "What about the dad?"
She paused for a second, "Shot. Trying to escape."
The boys and Kathleen all exchanged a look before Angel spoke, "Good. He was the worst one. Fuck that guy."
Kathleen smirked a little at that before handing a duffle bag over to her, "Think these are your clothes. Found them in the barn."
Angel nodded to her happily,"Thanks."
After Angel managed to get out of the bloody nightgown and into her jeans and tshirt she limped along with her brother's help, "Can we leave this inbred shit hole now?"
"Yeah." Dean frowned as they started to walk, "Small problem… I think the car's at the police station."
From behind them, Kathlee listened to the woman on her walkie-talkie, "Backup unit en route to your location."
She quickly caught up to them, "So, state police and the FBI are gonna be here within the hour. They're gonna wanna talk to you." She looked between all three of their worried expressions, "I suggest that you're all long gone by then."
"Thanks." Dean nodded sincerely as he studied her for a beat, "Hey, listen, I don't mean to press our luck, but we're kind of in the middle of nowhere. Think we could catch a ride?"
She furrowed her eyebrows at him, "Start walking." She looked between Sam and Angel next, "Duck if you see a squad car."
"Sounds great to me." Sam nodded before helping Angel along, "Thanks."
"Listen, uh…" At Dean's voice they both turned to see him giving Kathleen a sorrowful look, "I'm sorry about your brother."
"Thank you." Tears began filling her eyes, "It was really hard not knowing what happened to him. I thought it would be easier once I knew the truth- but it isn't really." She paused as she looked down, "Anyway, you should go."
The three of them nod before walking away, Kathleen watching them leave, close to tears. As they walked down the road Dean sent Angel and Sam a look of warning.
"Never do that again."
Sam shared a look with Angel before turning it on Dean, "Do what?"
"Go missin' like that."
Angel grinned up at him, "Awe, were you worried about us, little b?"
"All I'm sayin' is, either one of you vanish like that again, I'm not lookin' for ya."
"Yeah, right."
"Sure, you won't."
"I'm not."
Sam chuckled, "So, you got sidelined by a thirteen-year-old girl, huh?"
"Oh, shut up."
"Just sayin', 'gettin' rusty there, kiddo.'"
Dean chuckled at that, "Shut up."
The three of them chuckled as they continued walking down the dark road.
