Chapter 44: Things Are Gonna Get Better

After insisting that I drove the car we hotwired I took Dean to the store Sam and I had stopped in so he could look for clues as to why Sam left. I had told him that Sam saw a newspaper article but I didn't get a good look at it so that was the first place he looked.

"He's not answering me now… butt head." I said closing my phone while I looked at Dean saying, "Find anything?"

Dean held up the article about an icepick killer in the area saying it was the best lead we had right now so we decided to head to the morgue. Once there we learned what we were looking for, a Kitsune and though I had never encountered one it seemed they had before. The coroner let us know Sam had already been there and must have had a personal reason for doing this alone but Dean said he didn't want to bring it up.

I was able to track down the hotel Sam was staying at getting the key to his room easily with a few bats of my eyelashes to the attendant. Once inside we saw Sam already had articles on the Kitsune seeing Dean sit on the bed looking at the door angrily for when Sam would show up.

It didn't take long to hear the usual purr of Dean's Impala watching him stand up as the door was being unlocked hitting Sam directly in the face. I watched Sam fall backward standing up to make sure he was okay but Dean closed the door leaving me in the hotel room clearly not wanting me to interrupt.

I leaned against the door hearing the yelling when it slowly died down feeling the door move almost falling out of the room onto Dean. I gave him an innocent smile as Sam came in giving me a small smile which I returned hoping that they settled their differences.

"So are we giving up on hunting the Kitsune?" I asked curiously seeing Dean and Sam look at one another replying, "Yea."

"Lame was hoping to kill something but I guess I can wait for something else… why was this case so important to run off Sammy boy?" I asked looking between them.

"I knew her when she was little, she has a good reason for what she's doing." Sam said defensively while I laughed saying, "Hey man I'm a demon relax if you think she's okay then I won't question it."

He nodded while Dean took off his jacket saying, "We should get some sleep, I'll call Bobby in the morning and have us meet him somewhere."

Sam and I nodded as I watched them head to bed but I walked into the bathroom staring at my reflection in the mirror frowning. I shrugged off Castiel's trench coat hanging it up before turning on the hot water and undressing completely.

I sat in the tub feeling the warm water consume me as I grabbed my phone from the toilet seat flipping through my contacts stopping at one pressing the call button.

"Evelyn?" I heard the voice say surprised while I closed my eyes saying, "Hey boss…"

"To what do I owe the pleasure of this unexpected call?" he asked hearing the charming lace of his words as I said, "I take it you heard about Leviathans?"

I could hear a small sigh on the other end followed by, "Yes indeed, your angel boyfriend let them out."

"Cassy… he… tried…" I tried to say but felt tears begin to fill my eyes just from saying his name while Crowley cut off saying, "Yes I know love… I'm sorry but he did have it coming."

"Do you think he could still be alive out there somewhere?" I asked hopefully while he replied, "I'm sure it's possible but I wouldn't bet on it, I assume moose, squirrel and you have other things to deal with."

"How do you kill Leviathans?" I asked seriously while he laughed saying, "They can't be as far as I'm aware, why plan on taking them all out yourself?"

I looked towards the bathroom door saying, "Something like that."

"Well out of the kindness of my black heart I shall give you a list of demons you can try getting information out of, at least give you something to do and get them off my back." He said while I leaned back in the tub saying, "Thanks boss… and sorry for trying to kill you."

I heard him laughing saying, "Oh don't worry I'm sure I'll find a way for you to make it up to me in the future."

"I don't doubt that." I said begrudgingly not hearing anything on the other end until he broke the silence saying, "So what are you wearing?"

I closed my eyes hanging up the phone tossing it onto my clothes sighing lightly, I may have opened a bad can of worms.

The next morning true to his word Dean called Bobby who told us to meet him at another hotel so we were back in the Impala to another hotel. I decided not to talk to the boys about calling Crowley last night since I knew they'd just want to go after him but he was the least of our problems.

My phone went off as I looked down at the text seeing Crowley had sent me a list of names and addresses making me smile hearing Dean say, "Who is texting you?"

"A girl has her admirers Deano." I said closing my phone seeing his eyes roll but deciding not to argue coming up to the hotel.

We all walked up to the desk as Dean said, "Hey I'm going to go get more medicine per doctor's orders."

"Want me to tag along?" I asked curiously while he replied quickly, "No, I can do this by myself."

I raised my eyebrow at him but decided not to question it watching him get into the Impala as the manager handed Sam the key. Sam and I walked up to the door but I stopped short seeing Sam look towards me worried.

"What's wrong?" he asked while I bit my lip saying, "I got a list of names of demons that may know more about Leviathans."

"That was Crowley who texted you wasn't it?" he said in a serious tone making me nod replying, "I can't just wait around not doing anything… I need to get answers Sammy."

He put his hand up saying, "You don't have to explain yourself to me I get it, just please keep in touch with us."

I laughed saying, "Oh you boys couldn't keep me away that easily… let Deano know I'm okay and you take care of yourself."

"I will." Sam said giving a sad smile while I pulled the trench coat tighter around me saying, "Now… I got some demons to torture."
