Plains, Kansas
Anna walked out to her car, heading to work. She unlocked her car and sat down, throwing her purse into the passenger's seat. All of a sudden, this wave of uncertainty washed over her. She felt very strange and had a flash of Sam getting into her car. A moment later, the feeling vanished. She just shrugged it off, planning on calling Sam at her lunch hour.
---------------------------
Just outside Cowley, Wyoming
"Are you okay?" Dean glanced at Sam, concern clearly written on his face. "Sam?"
"I wish these things would just STOP." Sam said angrily, looking down at the car's floor.
"What exactly is going on here? This seems deeper then just two brothers going on a hunt." Sam heard Chase say and he looked up at her in the rearview mirror. He gave her a smile, not wanting to worry her with anything and then he was thrown into another vision. This time it was when he first met Anna, sitting at that table in the steakhouse…..and then his body fell back against the car seat, his head falling back and his eyes on the ceiling.
Sam shut his eyes tight, trying to block out the pain that was now coming. He had no idea why it was happening and he was worried.
------------------------------
Anna was just a little unsettled about what had happened in the car, so as she walked into the steakhouse that day, she decided to have a coffee and a slice of cake beforehand. She sat down at a table. It was just a table, chosen at random, but as soon as she sat down, she realized just what table it was. She could see Sam sitting across from her, just like when she first met him, except this time he was on the phone with Dean, and she could hear everything Dean was saying.
Her head began to throb and her arm spasmed and she knocked the coffee over, the mug falling to the floor and shattering. What was happening to her?
Anna walked back out to her car, the pain in her head slowly going away as she slid into the front seat and stared at her steering wheel. All this going through her head…..she had to know why. She picked up her phone and punched in Sam's number, praying he would answer. She held the phone to her ear, listening to the ring, and breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Sam's voice.
"Anna?" He said. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I was just worried about you guys and I had to check up on….AHH!" Anna put her head against the steering wheel, the pain coming back as she got an image of Dean. She placed a hand to her head. "Sam, I don't know what's happening to me. I keep seeing you and Dean. How long have you been driving, anyway? And are you okay? Is Dean okay?"
"We are all…….fine. We have been driving for almost five hours." Sam paused. "What do you mean? Visions?"
Anna shook her head, even though Sam obviously couldn't see that. "Well, it's like, I sit or touch a place you were at, and I just start seeing things. Flashes of you getting in my car, which I didn't see because I had to tell my boss I was taking the rest of the day off, and then seeing you talking to Dean and hearing everything you talked about. I've tried to rest my head on the steering wheel twice, and both times I've seen Dean, and he looked like he was very lost in thought. I could hear you and Chase asking him if he knew where he was going."
She glanced at her watch, and this time had a flash of when she was on the roof and Dean had been trying to get her down. This time she forced herself not to cry out, even though her head was throbbing.
"I don't understand this. What's happening to me, Sam?" She asked him, tears coming to her eyes.
"I'd like to say I know, but sorry, I really don't." Sam said, sounding worried. "I don't know, Anna, but I think somehow we're connected. Just try not to touch anything we have touched."
Anna couldn't help but grin at that. "Yeah, I'll try not to. So, you keep seeing what I see?" She ventured. "If that's the case, is Dean okay? Because I saw him, too."
She held her head and closed her eyes, thinking about how she messed up. With her in Kansas and them in Wyoming, they couldn't just come down and help her. Maybe if she had been there they could have figured something out.
"Dean is okay, Anna, you don't need to worry, we have been through worse and we'll get through this, okay?" There was a pause from Sam's end and then, "Hey, Anna, is it okay if I call you back later when we stop?"
"Okay, sure. Be careful."
Anna clicked off the phone and tried to remain calm. She got out of the car to go in and tell her boss she had to take today off, too. There was too much going on for her to work.
