"He shot himself. And you all saw it happen" Andy said to the local police that morning once they were called along with medics.
"Yeah. We did" The police replied obediently.
"Look at him. He's getting better at it" Sam said to Dean and Kaylee as he was being treated by a medic.
"She won't even look at me" Andy said walking over them as the medic walked off.
"Yeah, she's pretty shaken up" Sam said softly.
"No, it's… This is different. This is… I never used my mind thing on her before, before last night. She's scared of me now" Andy said softly.
"Andy, I hate to do this, but, um... We have to get out of here. Here. I wrote down my cell. You don't have to be alone in this, all right? If anything comes up, you can call me up" Sam said giving Andy his number.
"Wh-What am I supposed to do now?" Andy asked lost.
"You be good, Andy..." Dean said.
"Or we'll be back" Kaylee warned firmly before they started walking off.
"Looks like I was right" Sam said.
"About what?" Dean asked confused.
"Andy. He's a killer after all" Sam said sadly.
"No, he's a hero. He saved his girlfriend's life. He saved my life" Dean argued.
"Bottom line, last night he wasted somebody" Sam argued back.
"Yeah, but he's not a foaming-At-The-Mouth psycho. He was just -He was pushed into that" Dean explained as Kaylee listened silently.
"Webber was pushed, too, in his own way. Max miller was pushed. Hell, I was pushed by Jessica's death" Sam argued.
"What's your point, Sam?" Kaylee snapped frustrated.
"Right circumstances, everyone is capable of murder. Everyone. Maybe that's what the demon is doing, pushing us, finding ways to break us" Sam explained.
"We don't know what the demon wants, okay? Quit worrying about it" Dean snapped.
"You know, I heard you before, Dean, when Andy made you tell the truth. You're just as scared of this as I am" Sam explained and Kaylee hid her grin.
"That was mind control! It's like being roofied man. That doesn't count. No, I-I'm calling do-Over" Dean argued making Kaylee chuckle.
"What are you,7?" Sam asked.
"Doesn't matter. We just got to keep doing what we're doing, find that evil son of a bitch, and kill it" Dean said before his phone started ringing.
"Hello? Ellen, what's going on? Yeah. We'll be right there" Dean said looking at Kaylee and Sam before hanging up.
"It's fine. I've got… something to do anyway" Kaylee said looking at her phone to see she had a missed called from Kane. Dean nodded, thinking she was going into the woods to feed on some poor animal.
…
Dean and Sam pulled up outside of the Roadhouse and turned off the car. Sam looked over at Dean to find him unnaturally quiet and didn't know if he was worried about Kaylee or about what Ellen wanted with them. They walked into the old, dusty bar to find it empty besides Jo and Ellen. Jo was cleaning the bar top and Ellen was looking at a folder. They both looked up as the brothers walked in.
"Jo, go pull up another case of beer. Now. Please?" Ellen ordered to Jo as Dean and Sam took a seat on the bar. Ellen had a hunch that they would need a drink after this conversation.
"So, you, uh, you want to tell me about this last hunt of yours?" Ellen asked simply walking over to them behind the bar and leaning on it casually.
"Nope. Not really" Dean said simply taking a sip of his beer that Ellen had given him. Ellen glared at Dean in response.
"No offense. Just kind of a family thing" Dean added, slightly scared of Ellen.
"Not anymore. I got this stuff from Ash. Andrew Gallagher's house burned down on his 6-Month birthday, just like your house. You think it was the demon both times, don't you? You think it went after Gallagher's family?" Ellen asked curiously, placing the folder she was reading when they first walked into the bar, onto the counter in front of the boys.
"Yeah, we think so" Sam muttered softly when he realised Dean wasn't going to answer.
"Sam" Dean snapped, not wanting his little brother to be labelled a freak by Ellen and Jo.
"Why?' Ellen asked quickly.
"None of your business" Dean snapped frustrated but instantly regretted it.
"You mind your tongue with me, boy. This isn't just your war. This is war. Something big and bad is coming, and it's coming fast, and their side holds all the cards. Now, at best, all we got is us. Together. No secrets or half-Truths here" Ellen demanded firmly making Dean and Sam share a look.
"There are people out there Like Andy Gallagher... Like me... And, um... We all have ability" Sam explained softly while Dean watched Ellen carefully.
"Ability?" Ellen asked confused.
"Yeah. A psychic ability. Me, I have, um... I have visions... Premonitions. I don't know. It's different for everybody. The demon said he had plans for people like us" Sam explained as Dean brooded silently.
"What kind of plans?" Ellen asked worried.
"We don't really know for sure" Sam explained.
"These people out there, these psychics, are they dangerous?" Ellen asked.
'No. Not all of them" Dean said speaking for the first time to defend his brother.
"But some are. Some are very dangerous" Sam added quickly, not wanting to leave anything out for Ellen.
"Okay, well how many we looking at?" Ellen asked.
"We've been able to track a clear pattern so far. They've all had house fires on the night of the kid's 6-Month birthday" Dean explained before being cut off.
"That's not true" Sam muttered making Dean look at him confused.
"What?" Dean asked not understanding.
"Webber or Ansem Weems or whatever his name is… I looked at his files, and there was no house fire. There's nothing out of the ordinary" Sam explained as Jo walked back up to the bar with beer.
"Which breaks pattern. So, if there's any others like him, there would be nothing in the system, no way to track them all down" Ellen concluded.
"And so, who knows how many of them are really out there?" Dean muttered, stressing out and wishing Kaylee was here with them.
"Jo, honey? You better break out the whiskey instead" Ellen said looking at the brother's knowing they had a lot of work to do.
Meanwhile….
"How'd you trap him?" Kaylee asked Kane as she stood next to him in a dark, empty warehouse. They were looking at a devil's trap on the floor and inside was a white, middle-aged man. He was wearing a nice suit, shoes and looked completely normal except for black demon eyes.
"I did learn a couple of things from you while we hunted together for that brief month or two" Kane teased before looking at the women he considered a sister, worried.
"I figured you could release some of your power on him and that should keep you normal until we come up with a more… permanent solution" Kane explained softly and Kaylee looked at him, her white demon eyes were shinning brighter than normal as the power built up inside of her. Kaylee smiled weakly and nodded to Kane in thanks.
"You should go. To use as much power as possible I'm going to need to… play with him a bit first" Kaylee said to Kane before turning her attention back to the demon tied to the chair in the devil's trap. Kane placed a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm not going anywhere sis" Kane said firmly before going and pulling up a chair and taking a seat. Much to Kaylee's amusement he pulled out a newspaper and started reading it as if she wasn't about to torture some poor demon and kill the human he was possessing. Kaylee shook her head at her brother before stepping forward, her eyes glowed white as she felt herself grab onto the demon inside the human and give a little tug letting him know that she was in control.
"Let's have some fun, shall we?" She said to the demon, grinning wickedly.
