Dean stopped the Impala in front of the old house and looked at Sam .
Sam decided that it's worth another try ." I really can't .Dean . Please ? "
"I wish there was another way Sam . But you know there's not ."Dean said seriously "At least you know that she can't -"
"Shut up ." Sam stopped him , knowing what Dean was gonna say . He took a deep breath and left the car .
"Hey .. Sammy ." Dean called out ."She's waiting for you . I told her about you , it's not polite to surprise a girl like that , you know."
Sam cursed under his breath and walked toward the house .When the door got open , Sam saw an old lady , already dressed in a night dress , smiling at him ."Sam Panowski . Right ? "
"Ah , yes . Mrs. O'Brian ." Sam forced a smile .
"Ms , honey .Ms . And you call me Patricia .Oh ,I can see that your brother described you very well , I'm still a little confused about the whole things , though . I can't understand when did you see me that I wasn't aware . "
'You're so dead , Dean .' Sam thought and smiled uncomfortably . "Well , Umm -"
"It's OK honey . Now I just need to take my purse , then we can go . What do you say?"
Sam sighed and smiled again ."That's just great . I'll wait here for you ."
"As you wish sweetheart , I'll be right back ." she said and disappeared from his sight .
Dean approached Sam and passed him the keys . "Sam , I'm dead serious here , I don't care you're mad at me for this . You lash out at her , and I'll kill you myself .Hell even a scratch - "
"Alright Dean , calm down .. I swear , I'll unload my rage just on YOU . I'll take care of your car . I promise . Now go and hide ." Sam tried not to laugh .
...
"They left. We can go inside ." Dean said to Bobby , who was sitting behind the house.
"Good , let's go then . Straight to her bedroom ? " Bobby asked .
Dean looked confused ."What ? Why her bedroom ? Why not the basement ?"
"Because she doesn't live in a basement and she's gonna be the victim ,you idjit . I don't think the creature would go to the basement to kill her while she is up there in her room ." Bobby stated .
"Ah.. right ."
Bobby rolled his eyes ."Dean , he'll take care of your car , would you please forget about her for some minutes? "
"NO . I can't forget about her . But .. I can concentrate , if that's what you want ."Dean replied.
"Well, thank you then . Let's go ."
"How long do you think we should wait . Cuz I'm not sure Sam could keep that lady away for a long time ." Dean asked .
"I'm not sure . Not like we can do anything about it ."Bobby answered .
"So what ? We gotta play the ' Little Red Riding Hood ' ? ... Huh , I guess now I like the wolf better ."
"And I always just liked the hunter . " Bobby chuckled .
"Oh , you better don't follow the story and kill the little bitch instead of the wolf . " Dean mentioned .
Bobby laughed . "Don't count on me ."
"Thanks man . Next time , remind me to keep Sam beside me."
...
"Damn it , I'm starting to doubt if we followed its steps right . It's almost half past eleven , and nothing ? They'll be back any minutes ." Dean looked nervous .
"I know . But I don't think we missed anything this time . We need to be patient ." Bobby said back .
"I could wait for the rest of eternity ."Dean paused and thought "Well , maybe not that long , but long enough . The problem is if they come back before the -" he stopped suddenly .
"What ?" Bobby looked up .
"Shhh.. what was that ?" Dean tried to listen carefully .
"What was what ? I didn't hear anything ." Bobby whispered .
"Be quiet , and then you can hear ." Dean whispered and put his hand on Bobby's mouth ."You better go .. I think it's here ...go ..hurry up ."
Bobby didn't hesitate . Though he hadn't heard anything , he trusted Dean's instinct and words completely .
...
Spriggans got a little surprised when it found the room empty .
"Looking for someone special ? " Dean came out of the dark side .
"You ? I told you I don't have time for your little game ." she said .
"At least it doesn't hurt eyes when we look at you in that poor woman's body . I get why you don't want me to take it from you .But sorry little fugly , your time is up ." Dean smirked .
"I see now you know the truth about me . That's better . How much do you know ? I'm just curious ." she smiled showing her yellow teeth .
"I know what you really look like , and I know how to kill you . that's enough I guess ." Dean said and dragged out a big silver dagger .
She burst into laughter "So you think you can actually defeat me ? That's adorable .Acting bravado makes your blood taste better . "
Dean started to walk in a circle , in order of changing her position and giving Bobby the chance to get out and shoot her in the neck .
"I'd wait for the conclusion , if I were you ." he said .
"Alas and alack . You're not me ."
"Alack ? This reason , alone, would make me thank God for the rest of my life . I wouldn't hesitate to kill myself if I were that ugly .It should be damn hard for you , isn't it ? " Dean said wryly , and as he expected his words made her angry .
"You think you're funny ?"
"Uh , everyone keeps asking me that . I think I'm adorable ." Dean smiled artificially .
