The story takes place right after the season 10 finale, after Dean killed Death, the Mark of Cain was removed and Darkness was released into the world. I mentioned before, new characters will be added and thrown in the story and I will bring back several former characters from the show in the upcoming future.
Chapter 42 Bingo
Dean just left the shop where he bought the obsidian rock and now he was heading for his next destination and that was the furniture store where Howard Dobbins had worked. He just had a hunch regarding that guy they nearly bumped into while chasing down that witch and later seeing on CCTV footage at the police station where the breakout happened and Dobbins fled. It was just too much of a coincidence and he just knew this guy was involved in everything that has been going on.
Of course Becky wouldn't talk if she knew anything but it didn't matter as he could just find answers somewhere else and where Dobbins worked is a start. He wished Sam could be here with him but of course he has to stay and babysit Becky or Rebecca. He kind of feels sorry that Sam has to be stuck with crazy Rebecca but hey he just glad it wasn't him plus Sam can handle it, he's handle far worse.
Dean finally arrived at the furniture store and he did his usual thing, flashed his phony FBI badge in the now acting supervisor's face to which a guy named Ken was more than willing to cooperate. He showed him a printed out photo of the guy from the police station to Ken who just glared at it.
"Do you happen to know this dude?" Dean asked him.
Ken kept on glaring at the photo for few seconds and then looked up at Dean.
"Yeah, I know this guy, his name is Sylvester Cudmore, and he used work here as the janitor" Ken said.
"Did Howard Dobbins know him well?" Dean asked.
"Not too well, I mean he would say hello to him whenever he saw him and was always friendly with him but I wouldn't say they were friends or anything like that" Ken answered.
"You said he used to work here, what happened?" Dean asked.
"Oh, he was fired because he just wasn't a good worker, he come in late for no good reason and didn't do a good enough job, plus a few times he was caught on the job reading some strange book" said Ken.
Dean's eyes then lit up at upon hearing about a book.
"A book, what kind of book?" asked Dean him.
"Well I didn't get a good look but it seemed like book about magic or something, anyway he was nice enough guy just not a competent employee so he had to be let go" said Ken.
"Do you happen to have any information on his home address?" asked Dean.
"Sure thing" said Ken. He then led Dean to where he could get the info.
Dean was now heading out of the store and quickly pulled out his cell phone out of his pocket to call Sam.
Soon Sam answered his own cell phone and asked, "Dean what do you got?"
Dean still holding the cell phone to his ear, couldn't wait to tell Sam what he learned.
"Well, I found out who the dude is, his name is Sylvester Cudmore and he used to work at same place where Dobbins worked as a janitor" Dean said.
"That's interesting, did Dobbins know him, were they friends or something?" asked Sam eagerly.
"Well, they weren't friends but Dobbins was friendly with him anyway he was fired due to incompetence and he was once caught reading some strange book of magic of some sort" said Dean.
"You mean he could be a witch too, he and that old lady could be working together?" asked Sam.
"Well, these two are definitely linked together somehow we just have to find out how. Oh and I just got this Sylvester guy's home address from that place and get this, he happens to live in the same apartment complex as our Crazy Rebecca" said Dean.
Now Sam's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
"Now that is interesting, so Becky does know him afterall" said Sam.
"She might, it seems he definitely knows her. Also, I did get the obsidian rock and now I'm headed to the bank where Harper worked to get more answers, I think this Sylvester guy knew Dobbins, Harper and Becky, that's how they are all linked. By the way how are you holding up with our little hellion over there?" Dean asked.
Sam just sighed.
"As much that is expected" he answered.
"Oh, that good huh" answered Dean sarcastically.
Sam just paused.
"Well, after I get the information I want, I"ll head back there so we smash that ring and break the spell than we can track down this Sylvester dude and from there we can find that old lady" Dean told him.
"Okay, good luck Dean" said Sam.
"You too Sammy, you're going to need it" said Dean then he hung up and put his cell phone away.
By now Dean was standing near his car and he just got in and drove off to head toward his next destination. Meanwhile, back at the motel, after Sam put away his cell phone, he turned to Becky and walked near the bed standing over her again.
"Oh Rebecca, Dean just found out who that dude in photo is" he told her.
"Oh really?" Becky said trying to sound innocent.
"Yeah, the guy's name happens to be Sylvester Cudmore and he apparently knew Howard Dobbins since they both worked at same store and it also turns out that he happens to live in same apartment building you live" Sam told her.
"Well isn't it a small world" said Becky with a sly look.
Sam just got up in her face.
"Come off it Rebecca, you do know this guy don't you, it just too much of a coincidence that he lives in your apartment building, who is he Becky" Sam demanded.
"Okay, maybe I do know him a bit from seeing him around, he's just some guy who lives on the same floor as me" she said.
"When we asked you if you knew him you didn't say a word" Sam said angrily.
Becky wasn't intimidated by Sam's tone just sighed.
"Well, I didn't say I didn't know him, besides so what, it's not like we're friends, I would sometimes see him in the hall, he would say hello and I would say it back or something like that, he even asked about one of the self-help books he saw me holding once and that's all, we never talked that much" she told him.
Sam backed away from Becky a little but continued to glare at her.
"We think he's mixed up in witchcraft too since he's been seen reading a magic book, he might be working with the old lady somehow but I'm still not sure how they are mixed up together. Anyway, once Dean gets back, we're going to smash that ring with the obsidian rock he got and the spell will be broken, you'll be back to your old self, then me and Dean can try to find Sylvester dude" Sam told her.
Becky still not phased by all of this just glared at Sam.
"Well good luck with that" she told him sarcastically.
Later, Dean went to the bank where Winston Harper worked and told his co-workers and boss but neither of them recognized the man in the photo. However, when Dean asked them any other places Winston hung out at, they told him about a diner called Hogan's where he normally goes on his lunch break. Dean headed right over to Hogan's diner and showed the photo of Sylvester to a waitress there, she recognized him on the spot.
"Yeah, I remember him, he was always coming in here sometime around noon or so, I'm pretty good with faces" she told him.
Dean later showed her a printed out photo of Winston Harper that he also had with him.
The waitress just stared at the photo then looked up at Dean again.
"Yeah, I remember him too, he was also a regular usually came in with another guy, probably a friend of his and he be talking non-stop while eating. Sometimes I couldn't help overhear him go on about his marriage woes and how his wife left him for another guy. I felt sorry for the guy as I can relate. Oh and that other guy from the first photo you showed me, I remember that time he was sitting nearby and I noticed that he seemed to be eavesdropping on their conversation, listening to everything the guy was saying" she told him.
Dean felt satisfied with all the information he learned just smiled at the waitress.
"Thank you very much, you've been so much help" Dean told her and then he left the diner.
Then he called Sam again to tell him what he just learned.
"The plot thickens Sam, it seems this Sylvester fellow hung out at the same diner that Winston Harper would go on his lunch breaks around the same time. The waitress told me she even saw Sylvester once eavesdropping on Harper who was spilling his guts out on his marital problems to some other dude" Dean told him his eyes full of glee.
"That's great, Dean this explains a lot, still we need to find this Sylvester" said Sam excited too.
"We'll get to that soon, I'm heading back to the motel right now, okay we got take care of this once and for all" said Dean.
After they were finished with their conversation they both hung up. Sam once again turned to Becky looking satisfied.
"Well, our luck getting better all the time, we just find out that your dear neighbor Sylvester also hung out at the same diner as Harper during his lunch breaks" Sam told her.
"Whoopy" said Becky sarcastically.
"This is great, Dean is heading back here right now and then we will take will destroy that ring, it's gonna be alright Becky I mean Rebecca, believe me you will thank us after it's done" said Sam.
"Do I look grateful, you two are ruining everything, I am happy who I am now!" Becky yelled now her expression was anger again.
"That's only because that ring is affecting you, this isn't really you talking, but don't worry it's all gonna be okay, I promise you that" Sam reassured her.
Just then he heard a knock on the door and Sam was quite curious as to who was.
"Well aren't you going to answer that, Sammy?" asked Becky smugly.
Sam walked to her and quickly put his hand over her mouth.
"Not one word okay, or I will have no choice but to shut you up in my own way" Sam said praying and hoping that Becky wouldn't do anything to cause him to actually carry out that threat.
The knocking continued but Sam just stood over Becky with his hand over her mouth hoping who ever it was would go away. Then the knocking stopped and there was silence. Sam waited for about ten ore seconds before he finally removed his hand from Becky's mouth relieved that the person was likely gone. Suddenly, the door flung open real hard causing both Sam and Becky to jump and standing at the doorway was none other than Sylvester Cudmore.
"Hello, remember me, I think you have something or someone I want" he said as he entered the room.
Sam ran to near the other bed to get his gun which was in his duffle bag but before he could get to it, Sylvester raised out and his arm and swung it to the right, and then Sam was lifted into the air and flown across the room crashing against the wall with so much force then he fell to the floor and lay there unconscious.
Sylvester just walked up to the bed where Becky lay all tied up while Becky sat up on the bed with a nervous look on her face.
Sylvester just smiled and calmly said,"Relax, I believe I could be the answer to your prayers".
Becky nervous look then changed as she now had a sly smile on her face.
