You don't have to read The Truth about Dean Winchester but it really would help.

CHAPTER 02

Previously: Now all he had to do was send Dean Winchester back to Hell where he belonged.

Elkins decided that he would start the next morning always being careful not to tip off any of the Winchesters. First of all he needed to be their friends, he needed to be the wolf in sheep's clothing so starting the very next morning he made friends and it was so easy. He soon realized that Dean wanted to help, in fact every time he needed something Dean would seem to magically appear and easily find what he wanted even though Dean had only been in the house a few days, he had already memorized where the books where, and their titles. John seemed pleased that Dean and Elkins seemed to be getting on very well to the extent that he would allow Elkins to watch Dean practice some of the time while he was busy making silver bullets for the werewolf hunt in a few days. Elkins had also done a lot of background digging so he was pretty sure that he knew who the werewolf was and all John needed to do was make sure and then on the night he transformed kill him. A simple job that Elkins made sure would keep John busy for at least a week getting there and back of course after doing the job. So Elkins prepared for the week with meticulous care, encouraging Dean that he could soon take on solo hunts say simple ones for starters and much to John's dismay Elkins suggested to him that a certain water demon might be a good start. Now what John did not know until later was that Elkins had made sure when he mentioned it that Dean was within earshot in the kitchen so when John said that he was not sure that Dean was ready yet, Elkins had expected Dean to come in and argue the point but he didn't. Elkins was sure he had heard but didn't dare suggest the hunt again for fear that John would decide not to take the werewolf on and if Elkins wanted one thing it was for John to go on that werewolf hunt - It would give Elkins all the time he needed to dispose of Dean.

So about the forth day Elkins was right up there, the plan was on the go and while John the night before had been cleaning guns, unbeknown to John, Elkins had been cleaning his knives. Now Elkins knew that to kill a dhampir the knife had to be blessed and made of solid silver and it also had to go straight though the heart actually cutting the heart in two. Then the body had to be salted and burned with the head separated from the body. He also knew that Dean was good so he would have to wait a few days so that he trusted him instead of watching his every move. Here Elkins believed that Sam would be of help, Dean spent a lot of time with Sam and that would leave Elkins time to prepare. His plan was simple he would wait about two days, then make a nice supper and make sure that the children's meals had a sedative in them enough to put them to sleep for a few hours. In that time he would kill Dean and deal with the body, then when Sam woke up he would play the part of a kind adult helping Sam look for his brother. Elkins would have to remember to leave some of Dean's items washed up on the lakeside to give the impression that Dean had gone to deal with the water demon alone. Of course he expected John and Sam to grieve and he would appear at least very very sad and try to help them understand that sometimes hunts go wrong, very wrong. He happily thought that one day they might understand how much he had really helped them, why he thought he was saving their lives, it was obvious to any vampire hunter that Dean was learning all he could and then he would kill his own father when he could teach him no more, and turn his brother into his slave. Elkins decided that he really was doing the Winchesters the best favor ever by killing Dean.

One had to admit Elkins planned well and none of the Winchesters thought anything was wrong. So it was really lucky that the day after John left on the werewolf hunt, a nest of vampires decided to move into what they thought would become their territory. Of course they realized that first they would have to remove the guy who they giggled thought he know about vampires i.e. Elkins. Now to a strange twist of fate instead of jumping straight in and tearing Elkins throat out, their leader decided to watch him a little, since Elkins seemed to have company. The Leader of this particular nest was a old vampire, nearly 500 years and he had survived that long by being careful. So after realizing that Elkins had the company of Dean and Sam, he paused to study. This attitude did not please his second in command who wanted to get things done with quickly. Both vampires decided to settle the argument by watching the cabin for a night together. The second in command Rachael was not happy, she like to kill and children where a specialty of hers. While the leader Charles was carefully, too careful for Rachael's taste. Rachael was about to tell him so when Dean on one of the many chores Elkins set him to keep him busy but more to keep him tired, came out of the cabin to fetch some wood and Rachael saw him and suddenly all she could see was a future mate. Unfortunately for her, Charles saw a new second in command, maybe even a son when Dean looked straight at them and hurried into the cabin.

Yes suddenly both Rachael and Charles agreed (rare as it was), that Elkins would die but that child would become a part of the nest, so they watched and waited and draw up a plan to kill Elkins, and capture Dean. The vampires soon realized that the way to Dean was as Elkins already knew though Sam. So they decided that the simplest way to get Dean to come to them and agree to join them would be to capture Sam, so the vampires began to plan a new idea while Elkins who was so busy planning Dean's death had not noticed the new nest moving in, was also planning. It appeared that everyone wanted Dean and this was only the first day after John had left.

Dean himself was trying to make Elkins feel OK, mainly because he felt that Elkins was hiding something from him. Figuring things out was Dean's specialty, and he could feel that Elkins was hiding something like he could feel what Sam wanted or how he was, but even he on the night he went to get wood realized something was watching him and he could not shake the feeling that something was very wrong, so he sharpened his knives and cleaned his guns. Dean figured if anything was coming such as the water demon, he would be ready. Of course this had the reverse effect on Elkins who figured he had slipped up and would have to move his plan to tonight instead of tomorrow, Yes Elkins decided right after Dean told him he thought something was out there watching, that he would have to prepare tonight's supper very carefully.
