Thank you for your reviews. I hope this update is good enough for you. I really got my arse in gear for this one, suddenly got some ideas lol. There's one word in this chapter which I have wanted to use but thought it sounded too formal, but I still used it, it's quite an obvious word. I reply to all reviews when I update.


Chapter 4: Banking On Theories

Sam and Dean were now back outside the trio's apartment complex about to go in. They had driven all the way back while Sam and his buddies were 'going' to the bank.

"Come on Sammy, we've done this hundreds of times." Dean said grinning to his little brother.

"But don't you think that for such an expensive looking place it will have better security?"

"Nothing harder than usual. Now which floor does he live on?" Dean said.

"Why don't you ask at the desk?" Sam suggested.

"Fine." Dean said as he walked away to the man behind the desk.

Sam stood further back as he watched his older brother pull out his fake badge and ask him a few questions. He then turned backwards to face his little brother and signalled for him to follow. The men went in to the elevator as the shorter one pushed the button for the level the group lived on. After making it up the levels they searched along the corridor for the room and found it further around the corner from the lift. Dean bent down and quickly picked the lock. As soon as the door opened they triggered a silent alarm, unbeknownst to the brothers.

"Can you see it?" Dean asked.

"Over there, on the counter." Sam quietly spoke.

"Gotcha." Dean grinned as he picked up the box.

"So what is it, Sparky?"

"Well it doesn't look like any cursed box I've ever seen."

Sam began looking around the room, gun poised and ready, when he spotted something flashing, "Uh Dean? We may have a slight problem."

"What now?" Dean groaned.

"So much for there not being extra security."

"Oh crap!" he swore angrily.

The eldest brother quickly grabbed the box as they made their way out of the building. They made their way down to their car where Dean quickly threw the box in the trunk, before they headed away. Luckily they were in their suits still and had their badges to fool people with.

At the motel Dean placed the box on his bed and opened it, only it was empty.

"So what's in it?" Sam asked grinning after seeing the disappointment on his brother's face.

"Shut up." He mumbled in reply.

"So that was a complete waste of time."

"Well it must've held something so we just follow Sam."

"We better be more careful then, he knows what we look like."

"He's not exactly that bright, he didn't know we were following him last night."

"Yeah, I suppose." Sam said with a slight smile.

"Well lets go then."

"Do you think they know?" Ben asked Sam.

"I think so, so we better keep an eye out." The man replied.

"So...can you see the soul anywhere?"

"No, but that person, Sandra Fuller, used to work here when Dwayne got caught so she'll most likely be a target and also she was one he held a gun to the head of."

"Well if I was some psycho killer soul I would want to end her life. I mean he didn't get a chance in his life and now he's got the chance again." Sock said.

"Fine, we'll keep an eye on her." Sam said to the group.

The boys tried their best to act natural and keep an eye out on Sandra, but they weren't the most subtle people around. They waited around for a while when she exited the building to go on her break. As carefully as they possibly could, they followed Sandra, but at a closer distance than the Winchesters would've done. Going down the street they saw the two men in suits. Quickly they ducked down an alleyway until they'd walked past.

"...If they're as stupid as last night, they'll still be there..." They heard the shorter of the two say as they casually walked past.

"Who do you think they were talking about?" Sock said to his two mates.

"Maybe us?" Sam replied, "Come on." He said signalling his two mates to follow as they carried on down the street behind Sandra.

As Ben came out he turned to watch them for a moment and saw them going across to the bank. Quickly he caught up with Sock and Sam as they carried on down the street.

"I think you're right Sam. They've just gone in the bank." Ben told him.

"Who are those guys?" Sam puzzled.

"I think they may be bad and in need of avoiding."

"If they don't find us first." Sock said.

The boys had decided to park further down the street from the bank and walk up there.

"Why would they still be here, Dean?" Sam asked his older brother.

"Like I said earlier, if they're as stupid as last night, they'll still be there, they're not exactly bright."

"But that was ages ago now, they probably got hungry and left."

"Well we'll just go and have a look."

They made their way to the bank and peered through the door and windows and couldn't see the trio of idiots anywhere. The brothers both sighed before turning away from the building and walking aimlessly down the street.

"They couldn't've gone too far." Dean said, keeping an eye out down the street.

Just then he spotted the heads of the 'three stooges' walking down the street. Nudging his brother, they then headed down after them, making sure they were a reasonable distance away. By the looks of it they must've come out of a shop or an alleyway. So the brothers followed them down the street when they noticed they were following a woman. He looked at how close behind they were and thought that the distance was a bit close if they were trying to be inconspicuous. Knowing they weren't the best hunters they continued down the street behind them.

Sam was taller than most people there so he could peer across their heads to keep an eye out. The three people had followed the woman right to the end of the street where she went in a cafe to get something to eat. They stood around like idiots, not blending in which the Winchesters sighed at. How could they've lasted this long without being better at sneaking around? The brothers stood across the street pretending to be looking at something in a shop and talking to each other about it even though they were saying how sloppy the boys were.

"Who is she? And why would they be following her?" Sam asked.

"Maybe they've figured out a plan by now. Who knows what goes on in their small minds?" Dean grinned on the last part.

"Well hopefully we'll find out." Sam said as he headed over to the trio.

Catching Dean off guard, he quickly followed his brother across the road.

"Mr Oliver, what a surprise." Dean quickly stated after catching up with his long legged brother.

Quickly the smaller man turned to the brothers slightly shocked, "Uh hi, what are you doing here?" he asked nervously.

"We were about to ask the same thing? We noticed you were following a woman down the street."

"Yeah we, uh...we were coming down here and didn't notice that she was there." He stuttered with his lie.

"It seemed a bit unusual to us, coming from the bank and all. You wouldn't know anything about these killings that have been happening now, would you?" the taller brother asked.

"Nope, no, we were just going to get something to eat." He rapidly replied.

"Be sure it's just that, if we find you know something and are withholding information from us, you'll be in some serious trouble." Dean warned him as he lied.

"I swear I don't know anything, I would've told you."

"See you around." Sam ended giving a quick glance at them all.

The two hunters walked away down the street, subtly catching glance back to make sure they weren't leaving.

"Now I think there must be something, I think we should start with who that woman is. See if she's been linked to anything." Sam thought aloud.

"Good plan Sammy." Dean grinned.

The brothers headed back to the Impala to go back to their motel room. They had an inkling that she had come from the bank and worked there and with Sammy whizzing away on his laptop it shouldn't take too long to find out something.


Thank you for reading this far and being patient. As you may be able to tell they are going to see the connection that Sam already has so will be getting to action quite soon. Thank you for your reviews so far, they really make me get my butt in gear to write up the rest.
