Chapter 7: Eighty Acres of Hell
Five Years Ago…
Adam sits in the cage with his arms limp and breathing heavily, he has many scars on his face and is sweating profusely. He had been fighting with Lucifer for the past month, non-stop until finally they both gave up. Lucifer is not tired, but he figures he is going to be stuck in this cage with Adam for an eternity might as well give him some breathing time. Suddenly Celine comes out of nowhere with bread, water, and a wet towel. She goes up to the body guard and gives him some money to be let in for a few minutes.
"Well, well, well. Look at what we have here! So, Peaches did you bring me some bread and water." Celine looked at Lucifer and rolled her eyes.
"Hey, Adam I only have a few minutes. How are you feeling?" He scarfed down the bread and gulped the water as Celine tended to his wounds.
"Oh I'm great. I've just been fighting Lucifer for the past month…" He smiled, making Celine blush.
"I've been trying to find a way out, but there aren't many demons who are willing to bargain their life for a mortal's."
"It's fine, we found out away to get Michael out of my head. I think we can find a way out of here."
"Ugh, young love… I hate it. You know Adam, Celine is the baddest and bitchiest demon of them all when she doesn't have her humanity. We've had some great times together, isn't that right peaches?"
"Can you stop calling me that!"
"Why, I thought you loved it when I called you that!" She rolled her eyes and cleaned the dried blood off of Adam's face. "Hey, where did you get that bread anyway? Was it from Mary? No not the Mary you are thinking of, Adam. I should really get Crowley to kill that baker, especially if she won't make any bread for me." He smiled. "Crowley, Crowley?" He looked around for Crowley. "Hmm a shame maybe he's too busy. Now Peaches why are you helping out this sorry son of a bitch?"
"Because I have a soul, unlike you!"
"No, you have half a soul. Your mother was a whore and your father was a bastard!"
"Don't talk about my mother like that, I could care less about my father!"
"Do you know where your parents met?" Celine looked straight into Lucifer's eyes. "Oh you don't. They met at a strip club, and one night your mother went the extra mile and well we all know what happened next." Celine was getting frustrated and threw the empty plate at his face, Lucifer caught the speeding plate with his bare hands. "There she is! There's my peaches!"
"Alright times up!" The bodyguard yelled.
"I have to go, but I'm going to find a way out of here for you!" She kissed him and was pulled away from the bodyguard.
"Alright I'm bored and you have some food in your belly! Time to kick some ass!" Lucifer jumped right on Adam and they began fighting, Celine looked back disgusted at the demon.
Present…
Adam woke up startled; seeing that his phone was ringing, he looked down at his friend Celine who was sleeping on his shoulder. Jacob was the only one awake as he was driving the car and listening to The Killers.
"How long was I asleep?"
"Five hours. You must've been dreaming because your eyes were moving like crazy."
"More like having a nightmare." His phone started ringing again and he finally answered it. "Hello?" Adam asked annoyed.
"Wow sorry to bother you, didn't think you hated me that much."
"Hey Dean, no I don't hate you I'm just tired of being stuck in this car."
"Yeah try being a hunter for ten years, then you can start complaining. Anyways I was calling to ask how that hunt went with the Erikson's? I also have another job for you four." Adam rolled his eyes because he knew that they were falling more and more behind on finding Lucifer. They didn't have a lot of time because they never really knew when Celine was going to change back into her demon side. "Hello you still there?"
"Yeah, yeah I am. What's the job?" Jacob looked at Adam through the rearview mirror. Adam took notes as Dean was telling him about the job in Chicago. A couple of teenagers died at the old shutdown penitentiary in Chicago. There has been a lot of folklore about it being haunted by the old death row spirits. Back then a lot of the death row inmates would die before they went in the chair because a deadly sickness going around, shutting down the jail. Sam thinks it's just the ghosts viruses killing these innocent teenagers. "Alright thanks Dean, we'll get right on it!" He hung up and finished writing the address of where the murders were happening.
"So where does Dean want us to go next?"
"Chicago." He looked straight down at Celine debating whether or not they should go there. It was pouring rain in Chicago, Illinois, they parked at an old motel close to the shut down jail and near the subway. Celine was all too familiar with this place and she didn't want to be here.
"Alright so I think we should eat first, we've been driving for 20 hours and we need some fuel in our belly." Stephanie offered, Celine grabbed her stuff and went straight to the hotel room. "What's up with her?"
"This is where she was born." Adam said, following Celine to the hotel room, Stephanie and Jacob looked at each other. "You alright, Celine?"
"How do you think I am Adam?" She threw her stuff on the dirty bed. "This is where I was born; every house, every subway station, every hot dog stand… all bringing up memories. I honestly don't know if I can help with this case."
"You'll be fine, we'll be here to help you."
"Adam you don't get it! I know I said before I don't remember when I turn into a demon, it just happens spontaneously. But now that I think about it I always black out when something sparks up a memory of my parents. A song, a certain smell, or food… I think being here in Chicago might spark those memories back up."
"You think those memories will change you." Celine was now sitting on the dirty bed, a cloud of dust floated around her as she sat down. She nodded rubbing her hands through her hair.
"I think I might just stay in this dingy hotel. If you guys need help with researching I can probably use my laptop in here. But I don't think I can do any of the investigative stuff."
"It's alright, you were a big help with the Erikson case. I'll go tell the others." Adam kissed her on the forehead and went outside to meet back up with Jacob and Stephanie.
"So is she coming?" Stephanie asked with her arms crossed, tapping her foot.
"No, I told her she can take a rest."
"All we've been doing is taking a rest in the car for 20 straight hours. How do we know we can trust her, maybe she'll try to run away."
"I know Celine, alright she won't run away and trust me, she's more safe in that hotel room than out in the streets of her hometown." Stephanie was very frustrated and went straight into the mustang. They were now sitting at an old diner in busy downtown Chicago, it was a very popular diner. There were a lot more older single widows trying to meet someone at the bar, watching The Chicago Bulls. The waiter named Jill came back with the food; Stephanie had ordered a giant hamburger with extra bacon, Jacob ordered Chicken Fried Steak and mashed potatoes, and Adam ordered a Cobb salad.
"A Cobb salad, really?" Adam was in mid-bite as Stephanie made the rude comment.
"Yeah a Cobb salad, I'm trying to eat healthier considering I won't really be able to work out that often being in a car all day!" Stephanie ate her burger realizing how true this was, but she didn't care. It has been a while since she last had a juicy burger, with perfectly cooked bacon. Jill came back with Stephanie's Grasshopper pie milkshake, decorated with red and white curly straw.
"Well you enjoy that Cobb salad, you don't get burgers and milkshakes like this just anywhere." Jacob laughed.
"Ok back to the important stuff. Since Celine can't help us, I was thinking you and Stephanie can research on the jail and I can investigate the bodies and jail."
"I want to investigate the bodies!"
"I don't think you are ready for that?"
"Please, I saw my mother die right in front of me. I think I can handle a diseased teenager!" Stephanie lowered her eyes as she said that, immediately regretting it and continued eating her burger. Things got real quiet, so Jacob tried to think of something to say.
"Well if you want to help, we're going to have to change your wardrobe." Adam got a text from Celine asking about how things were going. Stephanie could tell it was from her, by his body language.
"So, Adam. You never actually told us how you know Celine so well? Like how you knew she was a Halfling and that this is where she was born!" Jacob was curious about this as well.
"It isn't a very interesting story. I knew her in Hell, she helped me out, that's about it!" Stephanie could tell he was hiding something.
"Please, that can't be it. I see the way you look at her; you look at her as if she is the last woman on Earth. You look at her as if you are in love with her!" Adam blushed and continued digging at his salad. "Oh my god! You are in love with her, does she know?" Jacob remembered Celine saying that humans and demons can never be in love with each other, much like how angels and humans can't be together. He understands where Adam is coming from and tries to cut the tension. Because clearly anything said about Celine goes in one ear and out the other for Stephanie, or else she wouldn't be asking these questions.
"So, Stephanie are you almost done with your burger? We should start shopping soon, you do still want to investigate the bodies with me right?" Stephanie smiled and hurried up eating her burger.
"Oh wait but I also ordered some pie!" Jacob smiled and blushed at the girl he loves.
The Woman from her Past
Thirteen Years Ago…
Celine was eight years old; she was very small, wearing pink Elmo pajamas, her tight curly hair twice the size of her head. She was hiding under the kitchen table as her beautiful mother was fighting a man she didn't recognize. It looked like her mother just got back home from her job; she was wearing a short bedazzled jean skirt, a red tank top and her ruby red stilettos. Celine knew her mother had just come from work because her mother always wore those shoes when she came home this late. The man scared Celine as he was yelling at a loud voice, screaming at her mother, the man slapped her face.
"MOMMIEE!" Celine yelled, her mother turned around and saw her scared daughter sucking her thumb under the table.
"Celine! See what you are doing, you are scaring your own child! Do you even care about her, because if you really did you wouldn't be working side-by-side with Lucifer!" The man's eyes turned dark black, Celine knew this man couldn't be human and ran into her arms. "Shhh, shhh, Celine it is alright! Everything was going to be alright. If you cared at all for her you would leave, right now and never come back!" The man was extremely disappointed and stared into his daughter's eyes.
Six Years Ago…
Fifteen year old Celine was walking behind a very handsome Italian boy, he was eighteen, but he had been eighteen for one hundred years now. He had a crush on the young Celine and was a bit shocked that she was back. They were walking down a dark underground hallway, with water falling from the ceiling, it smelled like a sewer system. But the two of them didn't care. The boy was very attractive with perfect facial features, brown eyes, arched eyebrows and very thick wavy brown hair. He was wearing jeans, a black stripped collared t shirt and a black men's trench coat. Celine was walking behind him staring at his ass; she was no normal fifteen year old thinking about Britney Spears or Harry Potter. She was thinking of what she can do with that boy if they weren't about to visit the devil. She wasn't even dressed like a normal teenager; a leather jacket, Gun's and Roses t shirt, tight black leather pants, and knee-high boots.
"I can feel you smirking behind me!" The boy said.
"I was just admiring your tightly fitted bum, is all."
"Celine you know I'm almost a hundred years older than you right?"
"That doesn't stop you from staring at my boobs now does it?" He led her to two large double doors, the handles were red pitchforks. Lucifer was sitting in a gold chair like a king looking down at his servants.
"Lucifer, look who came to join us!" Celine's eyes turned all black.
"Well hello there Peaches! Glad to see your back!"
Present…
Celine wakes up shaking, shivering, and sweating profusely, she is breathing heavily shocked from her dream. She rushes to the bathroom, turns on the faucet and splashes water on her face. She knows only one person in Chicago who can help her stop having these dreams. She runs over to her phone only remembering this number because she has helped out so many times before, when she was a human.
Jacob was sitting in an old boutique in the middle of downtown Chicago, he was sitting in a very fluffy pink couch being stared at by a bunch of women. One was a very blonde lady, the owner, trying to look like she was twenty-years younger than she really was. Another one was in her mid-thirties and very interested in Jacob constantly looking at him, the other was a beautiful young college student who looked like she could be Stephanie's sister. The owner walked up to Jacob asking him if he wanted a cookie, he kindly said no. Suddenly, Stephanie came out of the dressing room wearing a beautiful orange mini dress. Not exactly what Jacob had in mind, but he couldn't take his eyes off of her. The three ladies all covered their mouths shocked at how beautiful she could actually be.
"What? Is it too much?"
"Yeah, I mean, you look…"
"I think the word he is looking for is beautiful! Are you sure this isn't what you are looking for?"
"Yeah this dress actually shows that you have boobs!" Said the twenty-three year old.
"It's beautiful, I mean you look gorgeous…" Jacob was getting very flustered. "But this is far from what we are looking for. Think very important agent and less prom queen."
"Ok I think we might have something in here that may work." Stephanie tried on many looks, some very out landish and extravagant and others just plain weird. It wasn't until the last look, which was very boring, that Jacob had finally agreed. She was wearing a black skirt, black quarter-sleeve jacket, and a blue blouse to bring out her eyes.
"Perfect!" The girls looked around each other wondering how this was the look. It was very simple and boring, so the owner bought the orange dress for Stephanie just in case. Stephanie noticed it in the bag as Jacob was talking on the phone outside with somebody.
"You never know, when you might need this dress!" She looked over Stephanie's shoulder pointing out Jacob. It was obvious Stephanie had feelings for Jacob and Jacob for Stephanie. But Stephanie couldn't tell if Jacob really had feelings for her, he was very hard to read, but apparently the owner of a boutique could tell.
Celine was dressed in very dark clothing and put her hood on over her hair so that it wouldn't grow excessively from the rain, but also to hide herself. She knew a lot of people in this district and she couldn't be spotted by people from her past, because it might bring up unwanted memories. She walked up to a small, what looked to be a floral shop on the outside, but was actually a spiritual healing center. It was in between a deli that she used to always go to with her mother and a hair salon. She hesitantly went inside the shop, inside it was very smoky from strong smelling incents and perfumes. There were voodoo dolls and dream catchers hanging from the ceilings, crystals and dimly lit candles everywhere. The owner was helping out a customer who was buying a sexual enhancer for her husband. Celine went over to the back and saw beautiful pink crystals above a bowl of pink heavily scented liquids.
"They are very strong love potions my dear and they actually work!" She turned around and right away the ethereal woman recognized the lost girl, but she was frightened. Immediately she sprayed holy water onto Celine, but nothing happened.
"It's me, Jasmine! It's Celine." Jasmine frightened face turned into relieve in a matter of seconds, her eyes were beginning to water, she went up for a hug. They were now in the back sipping on some tea.
"But how, my dear, how are you here? The last rumor I heard you were…"
"In hell as a demon! Well that was true, but I was able to escape, I was able to escape as a human."
"How were you able to escape a human though? The only thing powerful enough that can switch off your demonic side is… is…"
"Love, yeah well I think that was what happened. I think I might've fallen in love."
"With who, a demon? An angel?"
"No, a human. His name is Adam."
"Wait! Adam, Adam Mulligan? The Winchester boys half brother, the one who was sent to Lucifer's cage as the arch angel Michael?"
"Yes, that's the one."
"Well does he know? That you are in love with him?"
"No, he doesn't. You and I both know that I can never be with him."
"You and your mother, always trying to break the rules." She smiled, taking a sip of her tea. "So Celine what brings you back here to Chicago?" She told her everything; from escaping hell, to Stephanie and the crossroads, to being reunited with Adam, and to meeting the Winchesters. The reason why Celine came to this old witches shop was because Jasmine was a dear old friend of her mother's. Celine's mother always got into trouble with demons and angels and Jasmine was always there to help her out. She was hoping Jasmine would help her out as well, even though the last time they saw each other Celine had almost killed her.
"This is Celine Kane, if I don't answer my phone I probably won't get back to you. So please don't call back again, you obviously aren't important enough for me to answer my phone..."
"At the tone please leave a message…" The automatic voice operator instructed.
"Dammit Celine! It's me Adam, I'm at the motel and brought you some food yet you are nowhere to be found! Please call me back when you can, and PS I think your voicemail was made when you were a demon, you should probably change it. Anyways, please call me back!" Adam was standing in the middle of the old motel room carrying a bag of greasy Chicago style pizza, wishing Celine was here.
Jacob and Stephanie were in a pristine white hospital, Jacob was all decked out in a suit and tie and Stephanie was wearing her new outfit from the boutique. Jacob held out his fake Center for Disease Control ID badge in front of the young doctor. Stephanie had her ID around her neck, the doctor couldn't tell if they were being real or not.
"You are trying to tell me that she works for the Center for Disease?"
"She's an intern." Stephanie looked sternly at the doctor to make her look older than she was.
"Alright."
"So what can you tell us about the bodies?"
"Well when we got the call about the kids dying at the old jail, I honestly wouldn't have figured that they were teenagers." They started walking to the coroner room.
"What do you mean?"
"I thought, just like everybody else, they were teenagers who died of the infection that killed the prisoners in that jail in 1863. But when they were brought here they didn't look like teenagers. The only way you could tell they were teenagers were by their id's." Both Stephanie and Jacob were confused, the doctor had pulled out the three teenagers found at the crime scene. Their bodies were extremely dirty and infected, but they looked like 80 year old men instead of two teenage boys and a girl. Jacob and Stephanie covered their mouth from the horrible stench and disturbed by the bodies.
"What the hell?"
"Pretty cool huh. What we thought was an infection that killed these teenagers actually wasn't. They died of old age; heart failure, kidney disease, high blood pressure…" Jacob and Stephanie looked at each other again extremely confused at what had killed these students. They thought it was an infection from ghosts but now they have no clue what had killed them. "It's the case of old grandma and grandpa Johnson." The doctor seemed so amused by this, but now this seemingly easy case just got more difficult for them.
Celine was back at the healing center with her old friend Jasmine; who was singing an old Gaelic script from her coven and splattering holy water on Celine. It was very dark and there was smoke all around them, they were sitting in a yoga position, with their eyes closed. Jasmine blew out the candles and Celine's eyes opened.
"It is done, any horrible memory you have of your father is now gone. Is there anything else you would like for me to do?"
"No Jasmine, thank you for all of your help! I appreciate it!" She bought a few things from the store and headed outside in the cold rainy city of Chicago.
"Wait, Celine!" Jasmine came running up to her in the pouring rain, holding a raggedy old black journal. "I know you wanted to forget about all the bad memories of your parents, but I think this journal may help you in getting what you want." Celine stared at the old journal and recognized it from her past, her mother was always reading from it but she never knew why. She heard her phone beep as Jasmine gave her one last hug, she had eleven missed calls from Adam, five from Jacob, and one from Stephanie. She knew they were probably pissed at her for leaving with no warning, but she had to figure out something on her own.
She went to a coffee shop a few blocks away from Jasmine's witchery shop. She ordered a coffee and sat in the corner on a comfy red velvet seat next to a bookshelf. She hesitantly opened the journal; she wasn't surprised at all, it looked exactly like the Winchester's handbook of all things weird and creepy. She wasn't surprised that her mother had this, she was more surprised that her mother was a hunter just like the Winchester's. Every case was exactly like the one's Sam and Dean had been a part of. Except there was one that seemed very familiar; in January of 1994, her mother had worked on a case similar to the "Eighty Acres of Hell" only in that case the victims had died of infections. She continued to read the journal entry until she felt a sudden presence in the air, one that reminded her of old times. She looked up to see a familiar face walking in the coffee shop, he noticed her as well and looked as if he had seen a ghost. She looked back down, packed her stuff and ran right past him. He immediately knew who she was and ran after her.
"CELINE?" She continued to run and without a trace she was gone, the boy in disbelief.
Adam was pacing around the hotel room, Jacob and Stephanie were sitting down gritting their teeth hoping that Celine would walk through those doors again. Finally Celine, drenched in water came into the hotel room, slamming the door. Adam was relieved, Stephanie a little bit pissed.
"Oh she's here! Where the hell have you been? You go straight into the hotel room telling us this city will remind you of your past and then you go off running in the streets by yourself!" Stephanie was clearly annoyed only because Celine had Adam extremely worried. Adam ran up to Celine and hugged her.
"You ok?"
"Yeah I'm fine, I just had to see somebody. I think I know what killed those teenagers, my mother had worked on a case before exactly like this. There are ghosts, that are infecting the children."
"Except if you were here you would already know that, that is not the case. Because we found out it was old age that killed those teenagers."
"What?"
"Yeah; Adam here researched on the jail and found out that there was an exterminator obsessed with the aging process. He apparently found out that you can kill people by rapidly speeding up their cell growth, making them die faster. However the government found this out and ended up putting him on death row, because he was using the death row inmates as test runs."
"So it's something completely different?"
"Yes, your mother may have had a similar case in the same place, but the killers are much different."
"Wait hold on can we rewind a bit… Did you say that your mom hunted ghosts, was she a hunter?" Jacob asked.
"Yes apparently so, shocking right?"
"Well we can talk about your mother later, let's go kill this bastard!" With that they got ready to kill the ghost, packed their bags, and waited till dark. The old blue 'stand pulled up to the extremely run down jail of the 1800s. Stephanie and Celine were on the hunt wearing very sexy leather outfits, Adam and Jacob were a little bit intimidated. "So you guys ready?"
"We don't know where this guy's lab was, I think we should split up? We can cover more ground that way!"
"I agree with Jacob, Adam you and Stephanie can be together, I'll be with Jacob." With that Celine led the way, she wanted this case to be over with.
"Did we agree to this?" Adam shook his head. They were all inside the creepy old jail, no one saying a word because they were all a bit freaked out. The jail was dark, water running everywhere, spider-webs on the corners of the walls. Jacob lit up a lamp getting close to Celine.
"So where were you all day? You almost gave Adam a heart-attack."
"I just had to take care of some business."
"Really is that it? How did you find out about your mom?"
"Shhh… I think I heard something."
"It was probably just Adam screaming like a little girl."
"No, I heard something… It was coming from over here." Celine was shivering, her hands shaking as she put the lamp up to a door, it read "Dr. Locke's office."
"Oh well that was easy!"
"Yeah maybe a bit too easy…" Celine opened the door. Down another dark hall, Stephanie was leading Adam not knowing where she was going. She saw something moving on the ground and jumped.
"You ok?"
"Yeah I'm fine. Dead bodies I can deal with, rats however that is whole other ball game!"
"Didn't think that Stephanie Cruz was afraid of anything."
"Didn't think that Adam could ever love anybody, after what he has been through."
"What?"
"Come on we all see it, you and Celine are obviously a bit more than just friends."
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Alright fine if you won't tell me, I'm sure I'll get it out of Celine somehow. Wait, I think I heard something!" Stephanie walked carefully around the dirty water and opened a door. Celine and Jacob heard another door opening in the same room they were in, they turned around and screamed only to see that it was Adam and Stephanie. "What the hell are you guys doing here?"
"This is Dr. Locke's office, how did you guys get in here?"
"Hey guys, that obviously is not very important. We can now finally find a way to kill Dr. Locke."
"Except he is already dead." Jacob replied.
"You know what I mean." Stephanie talked back annoyed.
"Well what do you suggest now?" Celine asked.
"We can either wait for his ghost to show up or find something of his to burn." Adam replied.
"Ok I guess we should start looking around…" The office was very dark and disturbing; there were diagrams of bodies being ripped apart, 200 year old organs in jars, and drawings all over the walls. "This guy is even creepier than most of the death row inmates!" Celine was reading through a journal hoping to find some sort clue that could help kill this bastard. Suddenly they all looked up as the door slowly opened up. The ghost of Dr. Locke was standing right in front of them; he was very tall with a bald head, glasses, wearing dirty overalls and lap coat. He was happy to see someone to kill taking out a scalpel, he went straight to Celine first. He grabbed her by the neck, turning her around in a chokehold. Adam tried shooting the ghost with rock salt but he was too strong, the angry old doctor used force to push him away to the ground, Adam passed out. Jacob tried the same thing, but it didn't work, the ghost was too strong. As Celine was losing her breath she began to have flashbacks; of reading her mother's journal, the pictures of the ghost killing those men with a scalpel and suddenly she pieced things together. "Stephanie! The scalpel, look for the scalpel and burn it!" Celine yelled while coughing.
Stephanie looked around turning the place upside down until finally she found the scalpel. She looked through unconscious Jacob's bag and found a lighter, she lit the scalpel and slowly it melted away. As the object turned into liquid, the Doctor was losing his strength and suddenly Celine's breathing got better. As soon as Adam and Jacob began to wake up again, the ghost had obliterated into thin air. It was now just the four of them completely exhausted and ready to continue their quest to find Lucifer.
And on to the Next
Jacob and Stephanie were loading the car ready to leave to where the Winchester's last saw contact with Lucifer. Of course he was way ahead of them and they lost him, it was basically a game of cat and mouse. Celine was by the vending machine collecting her thoughts longing at the place she used to call home. Sirens were going off, rain was falling, and it was another gloomy day in Chicago. She was smoking a cigarette, eating Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, and reading her mother's journal. It was so strange that her mother was a hunter, she always thought that her mother had hated that part of their life. That was after all the reason why she left her father, because she needed to get them away from demons.
"You ready to go?" Adam snuck up behind her, a little shocked to see that she was smoking.
"Yeah…"
"You alright?"
"I'm fine, just confused."
"I understand it must be hard to find out that your mother was a hunter."
"It's not that I just want to know why she continued to be a part of that life. She hated being around demons, she even hated hunters as much as she hated demons."
"Maybe she thought the only way to save you was to kill the beings that ruined your life."
"I don't know, I just feel like there is more to the story… She wouldn't be around those people unless she had a specific reason." Stephanie and Jacob had finished loading the car.
"Hey you guys ready to go?" Stephanie waved her arms around in a rush to leave this town.
"We should go, don't want to keep them waiting." Celine threw her cigarette to the ground and stepped on it. Jacob got into the front seat, Adam sitting in the passenger seat and the two girls in the back. Jacob turned on the radio and they were onto the next city, not realizing that a handsome boy from Celine's past was following them.
