Chapter 4
Harry POV
After one month of training, Ashley became better and better. She's a quick learner I gave her that and she's got a pretty amazing stamina and strength for a woman. Looks like she's ready for a graduation and became a full fledge hunter. Right now she read the newspaper and tried to find some freak accident, Ashley mumbled something and put a streak of her auburn hair behind her ear. Her eyes are emerald green right now and focused on the newspaper in front of her.
"Harry, why are you staring at me like that?" Ashley suddenly asked and she looked right in to my eyes.
Crap, she caught me red handed staring at her, I clear my throat awkwardly "So found anything?" I decided to change the subject.
"Looks like I find some" Ashley said and bit her pen "Here" she pointed at one article.
I took the newspaper and read it "What about it?"
"Shape shifter" Ashley said confidently.
"So the suspect found at the two places at the same time huh? That's impossible unless you get some evil twin" I read it again "Maybe you right"
"We should check this out right?" Ashley asked me hopefully.
"We will" I said "But if there's nothing, we will skip town, okay?"
"Fine with me" Ashley said and drank her coffee.
"Hey Ash" I called her "I you can finish this job, I'm going to bring you to my friend, Yamato Tanagawa"
"Yamato Tanagawa?" Ashley cocked her head.
"He is the one who always give me some information, and his family is the one who made this katana. He has the blue print and the only clan who can imbue it with power and magic" I explained.
"So are you saying that they are witch?" Ashley stared at me.
"No, they use um, chakra" I said.
"Whoa, chakra, sounds really cool" Ashley leaned towards me "What is that?"
"Is more like use your inner power, everybody have that. But Tanagawa clan is excel on that thing, they even can do magic or control something, but not with demonic power" I explained.
"Wow, that's cool" Ashley eyes sparkled when I finished my explanation "Can I do that do?"
"Yes you can. But you have to train your body and mind; you have to focus like really focus. My sister Hikari, she can do that but not as powerful as Tanagawa Clan" I answered.
"That's pretty cool" Ashley admitted "Even I want to try that"
I laughed at patted her head "It's hard, even I cannot master it"
"Come on, don't looking down on me" Ashley pouted.
"You are powerful Ash, I can fell that. But looks like you still need a lot of training before you do that" I said.
"Enough of talking" Ashley said and she stood up "We get some work to do"
Sam POV
"It's still a no" Dean said and shook his head.
"Come on Dean. I can't leave him alone, he's my friends" I begged.
"You said your friend, Zack didn't kill his girlfriend. But the police said they got decisive evidence against him. They got his fingerprints, DNA, even his footage when he entered his girlfriend house. That' seemed solid to me" Dean argued.
"Zack would never do that" I insisted "I know him"
"Maybe he's hiding something from you. You know the dark side of him that you don't know" Dean said and yawned.
"What if there's something else?" I raised my eye brows and looked at my brother's eyes.
"Ugh, fine. We'll go to St. Louis" Dean rolled his eyes "Just stop giving me those puppy eyes"
"Thank you Dean" I said and quickly entered the car.
"But if there's nothing we'll skip town okay" Dean reminded me.
"I promise Dean" I said "Just let me handle this okay"
-Line Break-
Finally we arrived at Zack house, but I saw something strange, a black Honda civic parked in front of Zack house. But Dean and I got down from our car and walked towards the front door, when I wanted to knock the door, the door swung opened and I saw an America-Japanese guy stood there. He had sea blue eyes and black hair, and his height is almost same as mine. He just stared at me with confused look, and suddenly a familiar woman appeared behind him. The woman gasped when she saw me but she quickly changed her expression and avoided eye contact with me.
"Sam you here" a blonde woman pushed through and hug me.
"Hey Becky" I said and hug her back "Long time no see" I knew the woman, it' Rebecca, Zak little sister.
"You can drop the Becky Sam" Rebecca laughed "I'm not a little girl anymore"
"Then Rebecca excuse us" the American-Japanese guy nodded slightly towards Rebecca and walked towards his car.
"Wait a minute" Dean said and stopped the guy "And who might you be?"
The American-Japanese guy looked at Dean, his eyes flashed for a moment and he handed Dean a card "Attorney at Law, Jeremy Kitaki"
Dean just stared at the card and Jeremy put the card in his pocket again "And you are?"
"Dean" Dean answered "Detective at Chicago, but I'm off duty right now"
"Ah, I see" Jeremy nodded his head and he turned towards the woman behind him "Alice, let's go. We need to talk to our client"
The woman behind him looked a bit startled when Jeremy called her "Yes sir"
Alice quickly followed Jeremy and she having a hard time followed him in her hells. I just stared at Alice and cocked my head; she seemed awfully familiar to me. Look like I knew her somewhere but I cannot remember who it is.
"Sam, come in please" Rebecca said.
I turned to her and nodded, I walked in but Dean didn't follow me. He still stared at the road where Jeremy and Alice just leaved.
"Dean, are you coming in or not?" I asked.
Dean turned to me and he nodded slightly "Yes"
Dean walked towards me and he whispered to me "That Jeremy guy, looks like I knew him. I don't know but I think we have meet somewhere before
"Really?" I raised my eyebrow at him.
"Maybe it just my imagination" Dean waved his hand "Beside I didn't focused on him, I focused on Alice"
"She looked familiar right" I asked Dean.
Dean stopped and stared at me like I'm losing my mind "No, of course not"
I looked at Dean and finally I got what he meant "Dean, please tell me you not thinking about that"
"I can't help. I mean she's totally hot Sam" Dean defended himself "A little nerd but still hot"
"You know what, for now let's focus on our case" I said and rolled my eyes.
"Not our case, your case" Dean said and pointed at my face.
-Line Break-
After I listened to Rebecca said I decided to visit the crime scene, I wanted to see it with now own eyes. I still believed Zack is innocent; he would never kill his own girlfriend. When I arrived there, again I met Jeremy and he talked to Alice in front of the crime scene. When Jeremy noticed me he stopped talking and stepped in front of Alice, hid her behind his back.
"Ah, we meet again" Jeremy forced a smile.
"What are you doing in here?" Dean asked.
"Collecting evidence" Jeremy answered "I need it for the upcoming trials. I believed Zack is innocent, his finger prints and DNA in his girlfriend house didn't prove anything"
"How do you explain the video tape?" I asked him.
"Maybe someone fabricate that, or he indeed come here but the attacker knocked him out cold before killed his girlfriend. Because if Zack is the killer why would he call 911, if it were I, I would run away as far as I could, and not leaved my fingerprint or DNA behind." Jeremy explained.
Dean glared at Jeremy "Oh really smartass? Where did the killer come in?"
"I don't have to explain everything to you. You may be a detective, but you off duty now. So I have right to keep silent" Jeremy glared back at Dean.
"Jeremy, we have to go now" Alice said "We don't have much time here"
Jeremy sighed "Okay Alice, sorry"
Alice just smiled a little "You always like that"
Jeremy laughed and patted Alice head "Let's go now"
Alice nodded and followed him towards Jeremy car, when they already disappeared Dean clicked his tongue in disappointment.
"Tsk, that guy, he really gets on my nerve" Dean grumbled "Act all so high and mighty"
"You mean Jeremy? Nothing wrong with him Dean" I said and entered the house.
"Also why Alice ignore me completely" Dean continued "Every woman always admire me when they meet me but she didn't even look at me"
I shook my head "Seriously Dean? You really want Alice notice you?"
"Who wouldn't? She's hot man, what a waste" Dean pouted.
"Maybe you're not her type" I shrugged my shoulder "I think she liked her boss"
"That geek?" Dean raised his eyebrow "Come one man, nothing special about that guy"
I eyeing Dean with disbelieved looks.
"Okay, he's rich and smart, but come one ain't I much better than that guy?" Dean folded his arms.
"You sound like a 5 years old kid" I said and started to examine the house.
"Shut up Sammy!" Dean huffed
I just rolled my eyes, I hated it when Dean called me that, because I'm not a kid anymore, but Dean loved to tease me about my nickname. So, after we investigate the house we didn't find anything strange or odd. Everything just liked Jeremy and the police said, so our only clue left is the security tape that recorded the moment when Zack entered this house.
"What's wrong with that dog?" Dean grumbled "He's already barking non sop since we came"
"He was a sweet dog" Rebecca said and looked at the dog sadly "But he's change since this incident"
"You mean when Zack girlfriend murdered?" I asked.
When Rebecca nodded I quickly realized that something strange did happen, that dog must be see something strange or unusual and he's afraid of it. I looked at Dean and looks like he had the same idea with me.
"Uh, Becky can we see the security tape?" I asked.
"Sure" Rebecca answered me "Jeremy gave me one when we finished talked, he told me to keep it for him"
"What a strange lawyer" Dean said "But that's good for us"
"Rebecca can we see it?" I asked.
-Line Break-
There's no mistaking it, a Shape Shifter. I noticed it immediately when Zack eyes on the video flashed, and that's not camera flare. Even now Dean decided to stay in town until we killed this thing, and now we need to kill this thing quick before anyone died again.
"We have to warn those guys" Dean stated "That Jeremy and Alice, we have to make them drop the case or they died"
"Oh so now you care" I smirked at him.
"Sam this is serious" Dean glared at me "I hate Jeremy guts but that doesn't mean I will leave him die like that"
I looked at Dean with surprised looks; it's rare to see Dean like this. He rarely worried about other human being especially the one who rubbed him the wrong way, and Jeremy already rubbed him the wrong way and now he still concern about Jeremy wellbeing?
"Who are you? And where's my brother?" I teased him.
"Shut up Sam" Dean rolled his eyes "Now let's find where this geek stay before he get killed"
Ashley POV
I yawned and threw myself at the bed in front of me. I'm so tired today because Harry dragged me anywhere he pleased while I still tried to adjust myself with the stupid hells he bought me. I hugged my pillow while my mind went back when I met Sam again. It was surprising for me; I mean I couldn't believe it that I will meet him again. Luckily for me Sam didn't recognize me if he did, well everything will be a mess, a big mess. Suddenly the door swung opened and Harry came in, he already loosened his tie neck, his tie already gone and he still use that eyeglass. I admit Harry looked very cool with that, I even couldn't take my eyes off him when he closed the door and put the book on the table. Harry sat down and ran his hand through his black hair; he sighed deeply and rested his head on his hand. I stood up from the table and walked towards his direction.
"Are you okay?" I asked and sat across him "You looked like a crap"
Harry lifted his head and smiled tiredly at me "Just a bit sleepy. Never thought that a lawyer job can be this stressful"
"Your fault to go undercover as a lawyer" I said.
"Maybe but, that's the only way we can get close to the truth. If we went in as FBI Agent what will we say to Rebecca. She will never tell us anything because she believed that we will prove his brother guilt" Harry explained.
I patted his hand "Just, don't push yourself to hard okay"
Harry laughed "Since when you worried about me? Are you started to like me?"
I blushed at his words "Shut up! I just…if you dead nobody will teach me to become a great hunter."
"Sorry about today" Harry said "I never thought that we will meet Sam"
I shook my head "Not your fault, it just a coincidence. Beside Sam didn't recognize me at that time"
"He will soon" Harry said "That guy name is Dean, I met him once. His name is Dean Winchester, a great hunter. I met him when I track yellow eye demon it about 1 year ago and I also met his dad, John Winchester, another great hunter."
"That's why Dean eyeing you like he knew you somewhere" I smirked "I thought he fell for you"
Harry hit my head with a book gently "Baka"
"I'm not an idiot" I pouted.
Suddenly I heard someone knocked the door, Harry stood up and opened the door slowly. I almost lost my jaw when I saw Sam and Dean stood there in front of the door. Even Harry couldn't hide his expression; Harry just stood there and stared at Sam and Dean.
"Hi Jeremy" Dean said and smiled "We need to talk, it's important"
"Okay" Harry said carefully and leaned on the door frame.
"Can we talk inside?" Sam added "It's confidential"
Harry sighed and moved from the door frame, he let Sam and Dean came in. As soon as Dean stepped his feet on our room, he's eyeing me like I was some kind of exotic animal. So, I glared back at him and finally he stopped eyeing me.
"So what is it?" Harry said and sat on his bed "Please be quick, I don't have much time. We're tired and need a rest"
"We need you to skip town as fast as you could" Dean said deadly.
Sam glared at Dean and cleared his throat "What he meant is, drop Zack case"
Harry laughed "And why is that?"
"It's too dangerous" Dean said "You could be dead if you pursue this case further"
This time I laughed, if what Harry said about them is true than Sam and Dean indeed Hunter, and now they tried their best not to involve normal human into their affair, but not me. I'm a hunter and I'm the one who found this job, I'm not running away.
"We used to it" I said and grinned "A lot of people wanted our head, because our job"
Dean looked at me a bit surprised "This is different, trust me"
I leaned towards him "Humor me, Detective"
Dean looked away from me and stared at the window, looks like he didn't have anything to say or ran out of idea.
"Jeremy if you value your life and Alice, please drop Zack case" Sam insisted "This is far more dangerous than anything you ever face"
Harry jaw tightened "Oh, really? Then tell me what is it about?"
I could sense that Harry became tired of this cat and mouse game, and I could understand that a bit. Harry whole life a hunter never been easy, you have to fight monster while tried not to attract police or FBI attention.
"I suggest you two leave now" Harry said and glared at Dean "Or I will do something that you will regret'"
"Is that a threat?" Dean stood up and leaned towards Harry.
Harry didn't say anything; he just glared at Dean harshly. I didn't know why, but when these two meet they always wanted to tear each other head apart.
"Fine, do as you want" Dean hissed "But don't you dare run to me if anything bad happen"
After that Dean turned and stormed out from our room, Sam sent apologetic looks towards me and followed Dean. When those two already gone Harry closed the door, more like slammed the door and started to curse in Japanese.
"Take it easy Hero" I said and chuckled.
"Who they think they are?" Harry said frustrated.
"Well, they don't know that we are hunter too" I said and moved towards my bed "I think they just didn't want us to get hurt"
Harry took a deep breath and started to calm down "Sorry, it just I'm tired"
I threw my pillow at Harry "Get some rest Harry. I didn't want have a zombie as a partner tomorrow"
Harry caught my pillow and threw it back at me "At least I will be a hot zombie"
I caught my pillow and hugged it "Hey, just remember your promise okay"
"Which one" Harry said and started to change his clothes.
When Harry did that, I quickly buried my face with my pillow. I didn't want Harry catch me red handed, stare at his bare chest again.
"You will introduce me with Yamato" I said "And you will teach me how to use your katana"
I heard footstep and a hand ripped my pillow from my face. I looked up and found Harry already changed into his army green T-shirt.
"I can't hear you" Harry said while hit me in the head with my pillow "Beside if you hungry just tell me, I don't want to pay extra charges because you try to swallow the pillow"
I blushed at his words "I'm not trying to swallow it I just…"
Crap, I almost fell into his trap. So I didn't finish my sentences and looked at Harry sea-blue eyes.
"You just what" Harry looked at me with winning looks on his eyes.
"I just, um, I…"
"'I didn't want you to catch me red handed staring at you'" Harry mimicked my voice.
I hit his chest with my pillow "I didn't sound like that!"
"Aha, so that's why you're trying to swallow a pillow!" Harry snapped his finger.
"I didn't!" I yelled at him and pushed him "Just go away and sleep!"
Harry grinned at me "You're so easy to tease Ash"
I glared at him "Sleep."
"Geez, mom" Harry rolled his eyes "You started to sound like my mom"
"Baka" I mumbled and rested my head on the pillow.
"I heard that" Harry said back to me.
"Geez, just shut up and sleep will ya" I hissed and turned my table light off.
I heard Harry laughed before finally I could have my sleep time again, I sighed happily and pulled my blanket a little higher. Within a minute I only could hear Harry soft breathing and sometimes he mumbled in his sleep. I turned and looked at Harry face while he was asleep, it's cute like watched a little boy sleeping. He looked so peaceful, without worry at all.
"Good night Harry" I said quietly and decided to close my eyes.
-Line Break-
The next I day I woke up earlier than I thought, even Harry still asleep. I yawned and stretched myself; I quickly got down from my bed, prepared a fresh pair of clothes and took a shower. After I finished, I quietly exited our motel room and headed towards nearby gas station. Because I woke up first, it's my turned to buy or cook some breakfast. I decided to buy some sandwiches, energy bar and two bottle of mineral water.
"Well, well"
I turned and found Dean stood behind me. I sighed and quickly walked to the cashier and tried to ignore Dean, which is pretty hard because he's behind me.
"Morning Alice" Dean greeted me cheerfully.
"Morning" I said without looking at him and focused myself on the cashier in front of me.
"Where's Jeremy?" Dean asked "It's rare to see you alone"
"He's still asleep" I answered.
When I wanted to pay, Dean held my hand and gave his credit card to the cashier.
"Let me pay for you" Dean said and grinned at me.
I rolled my eyes at him "Are you trying to impress me or what?"
"Half of it yes" Dean said "But half of it as a 'thank you' for your information about Zack case"
The cashier gave me my groceries and I took it quickly "So, you are not trying to kick us out of town again?"
Dean followed me "I'm still trying, believe me it's far more dangerous than you think"
I stopped and turned to face him "Why? Why are you trying to save us? We are stranger"
Dean avoided my eyes "It just my job you know. It's my job to keep people safe"
I sighed and looked at my feet "Just stopped bothering me and Jeremy okay? We knew the price that we have to pay when we took this job and we willing to take the price"
I quickly turned and leaved Dean, but Dean grabbed my wrist and forced me to stop.
"You didn't sound like a lawyer" Dean said "Just who the hell are you? And tell me the truth now"
I turned and glared at him "Just someone looking for redemption because she cannot protect person that she care the most"
Dean looked startled a bit when he saw me right in the eyes, I bet my eyes already turned crystal blue and it's glowing right now. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, when I opened my eyes Dean still stood there in front of me and he looked at me with curiosity.
"What?" I barked at him.
"It's me or your eyes just glowing?" Dean asked me in disbelieved tone.
I rolled my eyes "And if I say yes?"
Dean folded his arms "Then what are you, normal human don't do that kind of shit"
I almost laughed at his question "Tell me Dean, what you see on me? Am I a human or something else?"
Dean leaned towards me "A hot woman, that what I see"
"Flattery doesn't bring you anywhere" I looked at him "Again, what do you want from me?"
Dean tilted his head at me "Just saying hello, is that against the law now?"
I looked up at the blue sky "How did you know that I am here? You are not stalking me aren't you?"
Dean laughed at my questioned "No, no of course not. I'm just passing by and saw you walked towards the minimarket with serious expressions. And I thought why not I stop and said 'Hi', beside I got couple thing I need to buy"
I looked at his empty hand "Yeah, great reason Dean"
Dean shoved his hand on his jeans pocket "What? I didn't see anything I want at that store"
Before I could retorted I hear something like Police Siren, I froze in place along with Dean.
"What happened?" I said to myself.
"So, I guess this is good bye" Dean said and pulled his car key from his pocket.
"Whoa you are not going to leave me there" I glared at him "I'm coming with you"
Dean glared at me back I saw a hint of fear in his eyes because of my glowing eyes, but he tried his best to hide that fear "No, you stay here and leave town while you can"
I grabbed his wrist "I'm coming with you" I said stubbornly.
"This is got nothing to do with you" Dean insisted.
"I'm Zack Lawyer" I growled at him "It is my duty to prove his innocence, what if this accident could prove his innocence?"
"Fine" Dean gritted his teeth "You can come but I cannot let you wondering by yourself, you have to stay by my side all the time. And that's final"
I huffed and nodded, I hate this but I had no choice. I quickly pulled my phone from my jeans pocket and called Jeremy…er I mean Harry, while Dean called Sam. When Harry picked up his phone, he said hello in hoarse voice, looks like he just woke up. I quickly explained the situation, at first Harry didn't respond at me he just said 'What?', I cursed and explained for the second time, thank goodness his respond this time is 'I will be there, in 10 minutes' and he ended the call. I glared at the screen, he didn't even respond when I told him I'm with Dean.
"What? Is Jeremy still asleep?" Dean asked.
"He already woke up but looks like his soul still stuck somewhere" I grumbled "And he already missed a few details"
Dean laughed at me "See I'm better than him" he humming to himself.
I just looked at him with the corner of my eyes "Anyway let's get going"
Dean nodded and ran towards his Impala, while I ran behind him. I quickly entered his car and sat on the passenger seat; Dean quickly started the engine and drove quickly to the Police car direction. It's a small town so if anything happen we can find the place real quick; it's hard to miss all that police cars in this town. We finally found the place of incident; I quickly got down from the car and started my way to the front. I saw an ambulance and a woman on a stretcher and a man inside a police car. I asked a man beside me and he turned me what happened.
"I don't believe it. They used be a very nuickly made my way back to Dean car; there I found Harry, already with his suit and his tie, but his hair is a mess and still wet. Harry talked to Sam and Dean, well more like arguing over something.
"…not happening" Harry glared at Sam "I'm not leaving"
"Why don't you understand that you only put yourself, and more importantly Alice in danger" Dean hissed
"And now you care about her" Harry looked at Dean harshly.
"Whoa, stop there" I quickly put myself in front of Harry.
Harry looked a little bit surprised when he saw me there, but he shook his head quickly and looked at Dean.
"I'm not leaving" Harry insisted "Me and Alice, we could take care of ourselves. We used to it"
Dean growled at Harry "You…"
"Dean enough" I growled back at him "Just stopped okay. I don't want any trouble here"
Dean quickly backed down, probably because my eyes, he looked at me and Harry with angry looks, and he threw his hand up in frustration. After that he walked to his car angrily and yelled at Sam to move his ass. When they are disappeared I sighed and turned to Harry.
"Why are you always fighting with Dean?" I asked started to get annoyed by their attitude.
Harry rubbed the back of his neck "I don't know, it just, I couldn't trust that guy. Something about his attitude bothers me"
I looked at him "Fine, whatever. Just don't make everything more complicated okay?"
"Okay" Harry nodded "And I already asked around, I heard some rumors that when the incident happened, the husband is in the airport not in the home"
I crossed my arms "Shape shifter"
"You right. Now we just have to find where's it lair and killed it, before it hurt anybody else" Harry said.
"We should look around the apartment" I said "Maybe we missed something"
Harry nodded and we walked to the back of the apartment, we investigate the area and found trails of blood leading to the sewer. Harry opened the grate and we took a peek inside.
"Why every creature always picks some shady and dirty hiding place" I grumbled "Why don't they pick somewhere nice and luxurious?"
Harry patted my head "You can ask him later when we get him"
"Are we going to enter it now?" I asked.
Harry already climbed down and pulled a small flash light from his pocket and a gun that he hid under his suit. He looked up at me and flashed the flashlight on my face.
"Come on down Ash" Harry said "Good thing you used T shirt and jeans, we are going to do some field work"
I rolled my eyes and climbed down the sewer "It smell like sewer"
Harry hit my head with the flashlight "It is a sewer Ash, now you handle the flashlight"
I glared at him and grabbed the gun "I found this case, so I'm the one who handling the gun"
"Whoa take it easy there Ash" Harry said and let me took his gun "You can shoot me there"
I check the gun, it's still full and I readied myself "Ready?"
Harry readied his flashlight "Anytime you ready to move Ash"
So what do you think?
Give me your thoughts on review okay, whether you love it or hate it
And maybe some ideas might be good for me
And see you on the next chapter, bye bye
