A/N: Oh Yeah, here you go!
Sam and Dean arrived early. They wanted to scope the place out first, and place themselves strategically across from the witch when she arrived. The only problem now was that she was late. Dean looked at his watch before looking back up at the door. He couldn't explain why he was suddenly anxious.
"She's not here" Dean said looking over to his brother. "You think she bailed on us?"
"I don't know" Sam replied with a shrug. He looked at his brother curiously. He'd been acting strange for a while now. "What's it matter, you've wanted her out of our hair since we met her" Dean shook his head. "That hasn't changed has it?" Dean sighed. He hated when his brother played these head games.
"What do you think?" Dean responded the irritation clearly in his voice. "I don't trust and definitely can't stand her, I want the information she got from Alison's head before we're finding another dead body soon" Sam looked at his brother who turned away from him as he took a swig of his beer.
"Sure" Sam said turning and spotting a familiar face coming through the door. "Wait, there she is" Dean followed his brother's eyes and spotted Katie as well. Unknowingly the eldest Winchester sat his beer down and seemed to sit up a little straighter as she walked toward them. He shook his head when he realized what he was doing and he slouched back down. He mentally kicked himself as he repeated, 'she's a witch you idiot' in his head. She walked over and smiled at both of them and he couldn't deny that for a witch she was kinda cute.
"Sorry I'm late" Katie said taking the empty seat across from the brothers. "I had to change and then grab this book" she pulled a large brown book from her bag. "This is where I saw the symbols on our victims" Dean scoffed and both Katie and Sam turned to him.
"Our victims?" Dean repeated. He knew where this was going and was going to stop it before it even started. "So they're our victims now?" Katie furrowed her brow before turning to Sam who seemed to shake his head.
"Why, yes Dean, I figured I could call them that since we are now working together" Katie said placing the book on the table.
"Whoa, whoa princess" Dean said gaining a glare from Katie at his nickname for her. "I think you have this all mixed up, we—" he pointed between he and Sam. "Are not working with you" he pointed to Katie who tilted her head. "You have info we need and once we have it you can go on your way and do whatever witches do, Got it?" he reached for the book, but Katie was faster and pulled right from under his fingers.
"Oh" Katie said with a nod. "That's how this plays out, huh?" she shook her head again. "Well that plan doesn't really work for me, so how about I take my handy answers to everything book here, and all that nifty information I got from Alison and I just go about solving this case myself and you go do what meat headed hunters do" she shrugged. "I don't know shoot something or burp" she tucked the book back into her bag
"Wait!" Sam intervened. He gave his brother a glare before turning back to Katie. "Look my brother has problems trusting people, especially people like—" he didn't realize how wrong this was coming out.
"People like me?" Katie asked and he nodded a bit. "What, women?"
"No, I meant—" Sam shook his head. This was definitely uncharted territory.
"I know what you meant" Katie said with a smile. "I guess the whole witch thing takes a lot to get around"
"That's an understatement" Dean muttered and Katie rolled her eyes.
"Right, but look we're here and we can work together on this" Sam said looking over to his brother. "Right Dean?"
"Yeah" Dean said turning back to the pair. "What the hell?"
"Fine, well as I was saying the symbol on our" she stressed the last words looking right at Dean who only shook his head at her. "Victims are called the mark of the Gosagos" she opened the book to the marked page and slid it in front of Sam and Dean. "Lore says it's a demon who feeds on the soul of humans, and well then they're mutilated afterwards, the only visible markings is that symbol"
"So why are these people chosen?" Dean asked and Katie looked over to him. Was he actually making an effort? "What's so special about them?"
"Nothing really" Katie said and both Dean and Sam looked to her confused. "That's what I got from Allison. Her sister and brother we both members of this book club or at least that's what they were calling themselves"
"What were they really?" Sam asked.
"The town local cult" Katie replied. "Apparently worshipers of our demon friend here, which is all fine and dandy for those deemed worthy"
"Which I'm guessing Lisa and Kevin weren't" Sam said. "Or Carol"
"So they're deemed unworthy and voted America's next sacrifice" Dean added.
"Pretty much" Katie said." At least it explains Allison's becoming mute, I mean to witness something like that happening to your family" she shook her head. "I can't imagine going through something like that"
"Yeah, who could function after seeing someone you've spent your whole life with just die like that" Sam said looking over to his brother.
"Yeah" Dean said clearing his throat. This was border lining on chick- flick moment and he wasn't going to have that. "So what about the guys, where they come from"
"Well it's the tell- tell ritual, man and woman, there's so much out there about the whole man woman symbolism thing, but if you ask me it's all a crock, but to the followers of the Gosagos it's the truth so they choose a man and they chose a woman, neither knowing they're signing away their lives.
"So all we have to find is Carol's death buddy" Sam said. "You wouldn't by chance know where we could find him, would you?"
"Yes and no" Katie said. "I don't know the guys exact location, but I think I know where to look" she grabbed the book and slipped in his bag. "Allison followed her sister, so I was able to see where her sister's death occurred before they dumped the body, I guess we could start there"
"Where's is that?" Dean asked.
"There's an abandoned cannery right on the edge of town" Katie said. "Seems like the perfect place to hold your demon worshiping meetings, right?"
"Maybe, I guess we could check it out" Dean said as they all stood to their feet and headed for the door. Sam looked over to Dean whose eyes were on Katie's backside. The youngest just Winchester shook his head. They walked outside and Katie headed for her bike.
"Hey" she turned to Sam's voice. "Maybe you could ride with us" he turned to Dean who was glaring at him. "You know save time"
"No way" Dean said shaking his head furiously. There was a lot he was bending on with this case, but he wasn't bending on this. Not with his car. "That witch is not stepping a foot in my baby" Dean didn't leave room for an opposition before turning and walking over to the impala.
"Thanks Sam, but I'll be fine with my bike" Katie said looking over to her bike. "Plus, I wouldn't want to give Dean's baby my witchee cooties!" Dean glared at the woman before getting into his car. Sam only nodded before watching Katie walk over to her motorcycle. He turned and headed to the car already aware of what was waiting for him. Sam got into the car meeting the angered look of his brother.
"What?" Sam asked.
"What do you mean what?" Dean asked starting the impala's engine. "You know what, what were you thinking inviting that witch in my car" Dean pulled off, glancing up to see the headlights from Katie's bike behind them. "I mean I get the whole 'hey I'm a good witch' thing is new, but it's also weird, a little too weird to be true, so maybe we can at least keep some distance between us"
"Dean, I was just being nice, you know at least civil since we're working with her on this" Sam replies shaking his head. "Unlike you who's went above and beyond to be the world's biggest ass toward her"
"Well I'm sorry for hurting the poor witch's feelings, hell I didn't even know they had feelings" Dean shook his head. "Who cares, it just looks like I'm the only one here using their brain."
"Since when did that start?" Sam asked and Dean glared over to his brother before turning back to the road. "I swear it's like you're actually trying to hate her, even though she hasn't done anything that would suggest she's anything else than what she says"
"And the following, and the lies about knowing we're brothers" Dean said. "You can't be forgetting all of this Sammy"
"I'm not but I'm also paying attention to the fact that she seems to want to genuinely help and stop this thing before someone else dies" Sam replied. "Yeah, I've never seen a witch do that, hell I don't know many humans who would do that, but she is, at least give her that"
"Yeah, well something still isn't right with her" Dean said. "I can't put my finger on it, but she's hiding something"
"Everyone's hiding something Dean" Sam said and Dean looked over to him. "We're hiding something, so what is this really?"
"What the hell are you talking about?" Dean asked.
"It's just I've never seen you this worked up about anything" Sam replied. "If I didn't know any better I'd say you—" he stopped knowing it couldn't be true. But he knew his brother, he was acting strange.
"That I-?" Dean asked glancing over to his brother. He knew the words out of his brother's mouth were going to upset him, but he just had to hear what it was this time. "C'mon say it, I gotta hear this" Sam sighed and turned to Dean.
"I'd say that you might, kind of like her" Sam replied and Dean scoffed, but Sam noticed his brother slightly turn away from him. He was joking but his brother's reaction was enough for Sam to believe that maybe his joke wasn't too far off.
"Like her?" Dean repeated with a rough chuckle. "Wow Sammy" he looked over to his brother shaking his head. "You've said a lot of crazy things, I mean a lot, but this—" Dean turned back to the road. "This has to take the cake, I mean who could like that pain in the ass, miss know it all, who just so happens to be a witch"
"Well it seems like you've put a lot a thought into all the reason why you shouldn't like her" Sam replied still noticing Dean still couldn't meet his eyes. "So who are you really trying to convince?" The car went silent for a moment.
"You know what, shut up bitch!" Dean said his voice a little less confident than before.
"Make me jerk" Sam replied before turning to look out his window, a satisfied grin on his face.
It didn't take too long to reach the cannery. They all noticed the place was a good distance from the rest of the town it was the perfect location for any sinister activities.
"So this is the place?" Dean asked as he and Sam looked up to the place through windshield to the cannery.
"Yeah" Sam replied looking back to see Katie pulling up behind them.
"I still can't believe that we're working with a witch to find a demon" Dean said glancing back as well. "I swear this is like the twilight zone or something"
"Look Dean, I get you're still on the fence about Katie, but at least try to be nice, because whether she really is good or secretly plotting our demise, one thing remains true"
"What's that?" Dean asked.
"She could kill us with her mind" Sam replied before getting out of the car.
"Yeah, well she tries anything I do like she'll be sorry" Dean said to himself before getting out of the car as well and heading back to the trunk. Katie took off her helmet before walking over to the brothers who'd just opened the trunk. She peaked over to see Dean lift a false bottom and reveal an impressive arsenal.
"Wow" Katie said looking between the brothers. "You sure you have enough guns?"
"Nah we could use some more but this is all we got" Dean said returning the sarcasm, then handing her a shot gun but she just waved it away.
"Uh, no thanks, I don't really do the whole gun thing" Katie said looking over to Dean.
"Well suit yourself" Dean said before loading the gun and handing one to Sam before closing the trunk. Guns in hand Sam and Dean took the lead as Katie followed behind them. Dean looked over his shoulder to Sam and Katie.
"Ready?" Dean asked and Sam nodded. He looked over to Katie who wasn't sure what she was supposed to do so she just gave him two thumbs up. Dean shook his head before turning back to the door and kicking it in. They stood there for a moment.
"Wow" Katie said. "That was dramatic" She walked past them into the building. "Ten bucks says the door was already open" Sam laughed and Dean glared over to him. The building was dark, the epitome of an evil cults layer, only thing missing was the evil cult.
"It's quiet" Sam whispered as they walked further into the building. Katie stopped and turned to them.
"Maybe we should split up?" Katie suggested. "Cover more ground" She turned as Dean took a step toward her.
"I don't know" Dean said. "We don't know what this thing is capable of you since you don't do guns—"
"Wait" Katie said holding up a hand. "Is this your way of showing that you care what happens to me?" Dean scoffed shaking his head.
"No" Dean replied as Katie took a step closer to him. Sam looked between the two suddenly feeling like a third wheel or something. "That's not—" Sam shook his head at his brother stumbling through his words. "I just meant—"
"Don't worry about me Dean, I've been doing this for a long time" she said before wiggling her fingers at him. "Plus I have my witchee powers, so I'll be fine"
"Fine but if anyone finds anything yell and we'll be there." Dean said. "And I can't believe I'm saying this" he shook his head before looking back at her. "But if we're going to be hunting this thing together then I need to know you have my back. Got it?" Dean said looking back at Katie.
"I have your back as long as you got mine." Katie said looking at Dean then Sam. There was another brief silence.
"Ok" Sam said looking between the two. "Glad we got that cleared up" Dean and Katie didn't move. "So can we do this now?" Dean and Katie turned to Sam who just pointed down one of the hallways. "How about I go this way" and the youngest Winchester was on his way. Katie turned and spotted a door that read stairs.
"And how I about I see where that takes me" Katie said and Dean looked over to the door. "Unless you want to, I don't want to step on anyone's toes with my witcheeness" She smiled. "Especially not a phenomenal—" Dean just turned and walked away and Katie shook her head. "How rude?" she did shine the light on the oldest Winchester's backside before turning and heading to the door. "I wonder where this is going to take me" Katie reached forward and opened the door to see a stairwell that leads down. Katie took a deep breath before taking the first step to see where those stairs lead. The dark stairwell was creepy to say the least, the only light coming from Katie's flashlight. She stopped when she thought she heard something from behind her. It sounded like footsteps. "Hello!" he voice seemed to echo. "Is somewhere there!" still no reply before shaking her head and continuing down the stairs, but soon once again heard the footsteps and stopped. She shinned the light back again. "Hey if someone is there, it's ok, I'm here to help you!" she once again waited for a reply. Shaking her head she turned only to come face to face with a hooded figure. Before she could even react the figure brought a stun gun to her neck shocking her unconscious.
"But who is going to help you" the figure said looking down to Katie.
Dean was shining his light down the hall, when he spotted another light heading in his direction. Soon he saw his brother walking toward him.
"Hey" Sam said as he walked over to his brother. "Anything?"
"Nah" Dean replied shaking his head. "You?"
"Nothing" Sam replied looking around the dark building. "Think we got the wrong place?"
"Don't know" Dean replied. "You see Katie?"
"No" Sam replied looking around again. "You don't think—" A scream interrupted Sam's question and both brother's shared a look, before bolting in the direction they heard the scream. They came to a door and without hesitation went running through and down some stairs. "Dean, look" they looked down to a flashlight that was lying on one of the steps.
"C'mon Sammy" Dean replied as the continued down the stairs to another door. They heard sound from the other side, and slowly opened the door to the cannery's basement. Carefully, both brothers moved to hide behind some boxes. "So I'm thinking this is the right place" Dean whispered as they looked around to the people in hoods that where on their knees as if praying in front of an altar where a large book rested.
"Dean" Sam said and Dean followed his eyes to cages that were on the other side of the cannery. In one they spotted Katie lying unconscious and in the other stood a frightened looking man who screamed again for help.
"There's no need to scream" one of the hooded figures said walking over to the caged man. "No one can hear you, plus it'll be over soon" it didn't seem to help as the man screamed again.
Katie let out a moan as she turned over on her back, her eyes fluttering open to reveal that she was definitely somewhere new and unfamiliar.
"What the—" she lifted her head and found that she was trapped in some sort of cage. "Really?" She placed her hand on her neck as she turned around to see where she was.
"Look who's finally awake" Katie turned to the voice to a hooded figure. She soon remembered the stairwell.
"Uh, yeah" Katie said standing to her feet. "I hope I didn't snore" The hooded man chuckled as he pointed a finger to Katie.
"You're funny" he said.
"Well, I try" Katie said walking to the bars of the cage. "I just don' think you'll be laughing when you're on the ground pleading me for your life" Everyone in the room looked up as the sudden sound of the town's bell clock seemed to ring.
"Midnight" the man said and Katie turned back to him. "It's time" he turned away from her and headed for the altar.
"Time for what!" Katie called after him but he only ignored her as he moved to stand behind the altar. The other hooded figures lifted their heads and looked to the book. The man began reading from the book and the others repeated after him.
"Why doesn't she use her powers to get out of the cage?" Dean whispered over to Sam who looked between Katie and the cult.
"I don't know" Sam replied. "Maybe she has a plan."
"Well whatever her plan is" Dean said cocking his shot got. "She better not get in my way when this demon makes his big entrance"
"Wait" Sam said looking over to Katie who was pointing and mouthing something. "I think she's trying to tell us something"
"I think she was trying to give you the heads up that you've been caught" One of the hooded people said to Sam and Dean.
"We're not the one she should've been warning" Dean said then shooting the hooded person. With that shot both brothers stood to their feet, guns locked and loaded before coming out of hiding. The hooded figures all turned in their direction. "I'm sorry are we interrupting something?" They were about to go toward the book when the ground started to shake, knocking them both off of their feet. Both sat up in time to see the ground beneath them crack open and a hideous creature appear.
"So I'm going to take a wild guess and say that's the Gosagos?" Dean said as he and his brother stared at the demon.
"You think!" Katie yelled and both brothers turned to see her flick her wrist and the door to her cage swung open. "I had a plan, but no you had be so—" she through her hands up and glared over to Dean as he and his brother stood to their feet. "So, you!" she walked to the next cage and looked to the frightened man on the other side. "So, hey—" she had no idea what to say to the guy who's been held captive by the evil cult. "I'm sure you want to go" the man just nodded. "Ok, so this won't hurt… I don't think" the man's eyes went wide. "Keeper of those who have been made to disappear, hear me now, please lend me your ears, return him home in one piece, return him home where he will find peace" The man looked around curiously as swirls of light surrounded him until he was gone. Katie turned to the demon staring right back at her. "Uh, you didn't want to eat him" she pointed to the hooded figures. "I think they dropped him on the floor" The Gosagos ran toward Katie grabbing her and tossing her against the wall.
"Katie!" Dean yelled before lifting his gun toward the demon and letting out a shot. The Gosagos turned growling at the eldest Winchester, seemingly unaffected by the shots. Before they knew the demon was heading in Dean's direction. Dean and Sam fired shot after shot to the demon but it didn't stop the thing at all as it ran to them and knocked the guns from their hands and tossed the men aside like rag dolls, Sam one way and Dean the other.
"Guys!" Katie called standing to her feet, grimacing at the slight pain in her arm. She looked over to Sam, who landed closer to the altar. "Sam!" the man sat up rubbing his head, but he brought his eyes to her. "The book, destroy the book and he's gone" Sam nodded before standing to the book. The Gosagos' eyes cut to Sam and was about to charge him, but Katie ran in front of him, swinging her wrist and sending the monster flying. "Sam, the book, it won't stay down long" Sam nodded before turning back to the book. Katie walked over and held Dean to his feet.
"Thanks" Dean said looking over to Katie only nodded before looking over to the demon. Sam was about to grab the book when the cult members seemed to grab him by the arms and pull him away.
"Guys!" Sam yelled and they both turned to see more members of the cult surrounding them.
"Any ideas how to get out of this?" Dean whispered over to Katie as a loud growl sound from behind them. They both turned to see the Gosagos walking toward them. "Seeing as we just became the next sacrifices"
"Well first I do this" Katie said with a flick of her wrists and the hooded figures all froze, but not the demon that seemed to get angrier. She twirled a finger at Dean, who looked around before turning to Katie. "Book, now!"
"What are you going to do?" Dean asked and Katie took off her jacket. "No—"
"No time to argue" Katie said before running toward the demon. "Dean, the book!" Dean stood there for a moment in awe before turning and running toward the altar where his brother and the cult stood froze. He shook his head before looking down to the book. "Son of a—" Dean looked up to see Katie tossed to the ground. "Will you destroy that damn book already!" Katie stood to her feet and charged toward the monster again. Dean dug in his pocket and snaked out his lighter. The lighter flickered a couple of time before a steady flame came and as soon as it did, Dean placed the flame at the corner of the book and it ignited as if soaked in gasoline. Dean lifted his head just in time to see the demon burst into flames. "Well it took you long enough!" Katie yelled out of breath as she lied on the floor. She lifted a hand and with a flick of her wrist everyone unfroze. Dean turned to see the hooded figures release his brother and remove the hoods from their heads. The look on all of their faces was unmistakable. They looked totally and utterly confused.
"What-?" one of the once hooded men asked. "What's going on? Where are we?"
"Uh?" Dean started sharing a look with his brother. Both turned to Katie who was now sitting up on her elbows looking over to them.
"Ok, people this way!" Katie yelled and everyone turned to her. "Keeper of those who have been made to disappear…"
Later that night, Katie leaned against her bike, gripping her arm watching as Dean and Sam packed up their trunk. After a moment Dean closed the trunk and both brothers turned to her.
"So none of them will remember what happened last night?" Sam asked and Katie shook her head.
"They won't remember what happened any night" Katie said standing from her bike.
"How's the arm?" Dean asked and Katie looked over to him to her arm and shrugged.
"It's fine" she replied before bringing her eyes back to his. "Don't worry about it"
"I'm not, I just—" Dean said before shaking his head. "Never mind" he turned and headed toward the driver's side of the impala. Sam watched his brother get into the car before turning back to Katie.
"You sure you're ok?" Sam asked and Katie nodded.
"I'm fine" Katie replied turning and sliding on her bike. She looked back over to Sam. "Goodbye Sam" He waved bye before watching her pull off into the night. Sam stood there for a moment before turning and getting into the car as well.
"What?" Dean asked looking over and noticing the look on his brother's face.
"Nothing" Sam replied shaking his head before turning to his brother. "It's just, that—" Sam pointed in the direction Katie had drove in. "I mean I've seen a lot in my life, but nothing like that"
"I know what you mean" Dean replied and turned and cranked up the impala's engine.
"Makes you think huh?" Sam said and Dean looked over to him. "Maybe everything isn't as black and white as we think" Dean just looked at his brother before turning and pulling off.
The next morning found Sam and Dean sitting in the diner once again. Dean looked out the window while Sam looked down to his menu before glancing over to his brother, who seemed in deep thought.
"Hey" Sam said and Dean turned to his brother. "How's your head?"
"I'll live" Dean said running a hand over his head before turning to look back out the window.
"So" Sam said. "You think we'll see her again?" Sam asked and Dean turned back to him. "Katie, I mean?" Dean shrugged, before turning his head a small smile creep to his face.
"I can say for sure, yes" Dean said. Sam furrowed his brow before following his brother's gaze to the familiar face that was sitting in the corner. Sam turned back to his brother. "What the hell?" Dean stood to his feet and Sam did the same as the both headed in Katie's direction. Katie was looking down to her menu, before getting the feeling that someone was walking toward her.
"And here I was thinking you had turned in your stalker cap" Dean said and Katie looked up to them as they sat across from her in her booth.
"Oh, don't flatter yourself Dean" Katie said holding up her menu. "A girl's gotta eat" Katie looked back down to her menu, what about you guys , I thought you would've put this place in your rearview by now"
"Yeah, well like you said" Dean said and Katie looked over to him. "We gotta eat" Katie shook her head before looking down to her menu.
"So where are you headed next?" Sam asked and Katie looked over to him and shrugged.
"I usually go wherever the road leads me" Katie replied. "What about you guys?"
"We heard about these strange disappearances a couple of towns over" Sam replied. "Thought we'd check it out" Katie nodded.
"Well good luck with that" Katie said before looking over to Dean who looked as if he had something to say. "What?"
"Nothing" Dean said shaking his head. Sam elbowed him in the side and Dean glared over to him. "I mean—" Dean turned back to Katie. "I mean thanks" the last part was mumbled, so Katie leaned forward a bit.
"What?" she asked. "I didn't hear you"
"I said thanks" Dean replied a little louder. "For your help, back there"
"No problem, it's what I do" Katie replied. "Just don't tell anyone, if word gets out that me, the evil witch of the US is helping people, it could really take a hit to my rep"
"Funny" Dean replied snatching the menu from her hand and looking down to it.
"Wait?" Katie asked and they looked over to her. "Are you two really dining with witchee ole me?"
"Is that a problem?" Dean asked and both Katie and Sam looked at him with genuine surprise.
"No" Katie said with a smile. "Not a problem at all" she looked over to the waitress. "Can we get two more menus, please" the waitress nodded before bringing the menus over. "And here I was getting use to the whole stalker thing, I was going to get the whole black outfit and everything" she shook her head. "I guess that shopping trip is out the window" Both Sam and Dean shook their head as they looked back down to their menus. "This is nice" she thought before looking back down to her menu.
The table grew quiet and after a moment Dean's eyes looked over his menu to the woman across from him, who was biting her bottom lip trying to decide what she was going to order. His eyes trailed back to her lips, but he soon mentally kicked himself before looking back down to his menu.
"Dude!" Dean yelled in his head. "She's still a witch, so it could never happen" Dean thought to himself.
They sat around the table and ate their breakfast, talking like normal people. Soon the brothers forgot that the woman across from them could kill them with her mind, and Katie soon forgot that the men across from her wouldn't hesitate to shoot her if she so much as scratched her nose wrong.
"Boy am I stuffed" Dean said as the three hunters walked outside.
"Well I would hope so after eating the entire left side of the menu" Katie replied gaining a glare from Dean, but she only smiled. Why did she like annoying him so much?
"Ha ha" Dean said. "There you go with that awful humor of your" Katie stuck out her tongue at the mature. "No sense of humor and immature, I feel sorry for the bastard that scoops you up"
"How do you know I'm not already scooped up?" Katie asked and she could've sworn she saw a flash of something in his eyes. But it was gone as fast as it came.
"Not that this hasn't been fun" Sam said interrupting the bickering before it escalated. "Which it has really, but I think we should go, before I end up in another uncomfortable situation" he turned to Katie. "Well I guess, goodbye, or not, I mean we're bound to see each other again"
"Yeah" Katie replied reaching out to shake Sam's hand. "Wait, let me see your phone" Sam looked at her confused for a moment before reaching into his pocket and pulling it out and handing it to her. "I'll just program my number in here, just in case you guys need my help with anything"
"I wouldn't expect too many of those calls" Dean said as Katie handed Sam back his phone. "This was definitely a one-time thing" he shook his head. "This whole thing—" he gestured between the three of them. "Was weird and didn't make any sense"
"Some of the best things in life don't make sense Dean" Katie replied with a smile and she could've sworn there was a smile on his face, but it too was gone in a flash. "But you have the right to your opinion" she turned to Sam. "And you have my number just in case" Sam nodded. "Well it was—" she sighed. "Interesting to meet you guys"
"Understatement" Dean said before turning and walking over to the impala.
"Sam" Katie said and the man nodded before turning and heading to the car as well. Katie looked over to Dean for a moment, whose eyes were on her as well. He gave her a nod before getting into the car, his brother doing the same. Dean started the engine of the impala and glance up to the rearview mirror as Katie turned to her bike. He shook away any impossible thoughts that ran through his mind.
"She's pretty cool" Sam said and Dean didn't say anything before pulling off.
Katie looked over her shoulder to the retreating impala before sighing. She shook her head before turning back to her bike.
"And where do you think you're going?" A voice said from behind Katie causing her to jump a bit. She turned to see a familiar face.
"Son of a—" she placed a hand over her heart. "Good to see you too Gabe" she turned back to her bike. "Well I thought I'd go looking for another demon to kill" she chuckled. "Another ghost to back in the ground" she looked over her shoulder to the man. "You know, same old, same old"
"Well then we have a problem" Gabe said and Katie turned to him fully. "Your jobs not done"
"What are you talking about?" Katie asked. "I helped them with their demon problem and they both came out alive" She shook her head. "What else did you want me to do?" A smile came to Gabe's face that only made Katie uneasy.
"Much, much more" Gabe replying before disappearing.
"That tells me nothing!" Katie yelled into the air. She shook her head. "Great" she turned and slid back on her bike. "Just when I thought my life of stalking was over" sliding on her sunglasses, Katie revved up the bike's engine and pulled off, heading right after the impala.
A/N: Remember when we had no idea who this Gabe person was? For those who still don't, it's pretty crazy, just wait and see!
