Chapter 3

They crossed the state line to Montana. It doesn't take long until Morgan recognizes the sign Red Lodge. They arrive at a bar called the Roadhouse. They knock on the door and walk in. She stays behind them and someone comes out with a shotgun.

"Hello boys." Ellen puts down the shotgun. "What can I do for you?" She walks behind the bar."Is Ash in?" Dean asks as he sits down at the bar and takes the shot glass and drinks from it. Morgan is still behind Sam hiding.

Jo comes up and walks behind Sam. "Hello, I'm Jo." She sticks out her hand and Morgan looks up at her and shakes her hand. "I'm Morgan." Jo looks up at Sam. "Why don't you come with me Morgan and we'll get you something to drink." Jo gently grabs her arm and pulls her to a table. She walks to the bar and pulls out a soda from the fridge under the bar.

Ellen looks at Dean and Sam. "So who's the girl?" Dean motions for another shot. "We don't know." Ellen raises an eyebrow. "Dean sort of hit her with the car." Ellen walks over to Dean and slaps him on the back of the head."You could have killed her." Dean puts down the shot glass. "I barely touched her."

Dean gets up. "We need Ash to help us see if he can find out who she is." Ellen motions her hands to follow her. "He hates when I wake him, but he'll have to deal with it." Ellen goes to the back room and knocks on the door. It takes about four minutes and he opens the door. "What?" Ellen smirks. "Ash get dressed, these boys need your help."

Morgan looks at Jo and notices how pretty she is in person. "So Jo, do you like working here?" Morgan asked. "It's not too bad." Morgan looks over and notices Sam and Dean talking to a guy. She recognizes him as Ash. She takes a drink of her soda. Jo notices and asks her. "How's your head?" pointing to the band-aid. Morgan touches it. "Better."

Morgan really didn't feel like talking to her. Jo was nice, but she wanted to meet Ash. Ash was cool. "Can you introduce me to Ash?" Jo stands up and motions for her to follow her. They walk up to Ash and he smiles at her and then back at Sam and Dean.

"Hi, I'm Morgan." She sticks her hand out. Ash shakes it. "I'm Ash." She let's go of his hand and turns to Jo. "Can you show me where the bathroom is?" "Sure." Morgan follows Jo. Dean watches and then turns to Ash. "She told us that she only remembers her first name, but I have a feeling she isn't telling us everything."

Morgan goes into the bathroom and shuts the door. Once she finishes going to the bathroom, she washes her hands. She wonders if she's going to go with them on a case while they figure what hers. She wonders what the case would be if they took one. The first time Dean and Sam go to the Roadhouse they weren't driving the Impala, because of the car was being fixed.

The second time they were in the Impala but that was in the episode where the kid had powers and could control people. She wondered if this was considered a lost episode for season 2. She leans in and looks in the mirror and into her eyes. "Would it be so bad to stay in this world?"

"Would anybody even miss me if I didn't go back there?" "In this world Dean and Sam weren't married and weren't having any kids and they weren't even with anybody really, but who was she kidding, Dean or Sam could never love her, they only loved beautiful women, not someone like me or someone like Becky. The women they loved are always tall and beautiful. Even the actors who played them had beautiful wives."

Morgan thought to herself as she looked in the mirror one last time. She walks out. She walks out of the Roadhouse and sits on the steps by herself.

She didn't see Sam sit next to her. "Are you okay?" Sam asks bending his long legs and setting his elbows on them. He rests the side of his face on them. She looks up at him. "Sorry, I'm just a little bored." "It's okay; we're just in-between jobs right now." Sam told her with a smile.

Morgan decides to tell him something that she already knows about them. "Look, I know you are hunters and I know what you hunt. You hunt demons, vampire and all the other evils in the world." Sam clears his throat. "How did you know that?" Morgan rolls her eyes. "Are you serious?" Morgan gets up and walks back into the Roadhouse.

"Hah." Sam gets up and walks back in the Roadhouse. "Dean we have to talk." Sam pulls Dean's arm so that they are in a corner. "She knows that we are hunters and knows what we hunt." Dean glances over to Morgan sitting at a table looking out the window. He looks back at Sam. "How does she know?" Sam shrugs. "How should I know?"

Dean walks over to Morgan. "You got a minute?" Morgan gets up. He gently takes her arm and opens the Roadhouse door and leads her outside so that they are standing next to the Impala. He looks down at her. "Okay how did you know we were hunters and what we do?"

Morgan looks up at him. "Duh, like it was hard to figure out." She rolls her eyes and walks away. Dean grabs her arm and turns her around. "Hey, I'm not done talking to you." Morgan tries to pry her arm away from his strong grip and instead she does the next best thing, she kicks him in the ankle as hard as she can with her boots.

Dean yelps in pain and let's go of her arm. "Hey!" Dean shouts as he holds his sore ankle. Morgan shouts back. "Hays for horse, grass is free, unless it's the kind you paid for!" She slams the door when she walks back into the Roadhouse.

Sam looks over at Morgan and then walks outside. "What happened?" Sam asks as he notices Dean is sitting on the steps holding his ankle. "She kicked me." Sam folded his arms across his chest. "What did you do?" Dean sighs, "Nothing." Sam shakes his head. "You had to have done something for her to kick you that hard."

"Okay I grabbed her arm and wouldn't let it go." "Nice going Dean." Dean glared at Sam. "Whose side are you on anyways?" Sam chuckled. "Nobody's, but you have to remember that just because she's smaller than you, doesn't mean she won't try to kick your ass if you deserve it."

Dean walked back into the Roadhouse limping slightly. He glared at Morgan and she glared back at him. They stopped at a store so Morgan could get some clothes and other personal items she needed. Sam bought her a nice green duffle bag to put everything in. Morgan didn't speak unless Sam spoke to her. When she ate supper at the Roadhouse she talked to everyone except Dean.

It was late when they checked into the motel room. Morgan took out what she needed and went into the bathroom. She uses the mouth rinse first and then brushes her teeth. She stared at her reflection in the mirror. She couldn't stay mad at Dean for very long, but she wasn't going to let him know that.

She stared at the mirror and then at the huge band-aid on her forehead. She looks down as she is putting on the nightshirt at her smooth bare legs, which she was glad to have shaved. She finishes and takes her dirty clothes and puts them in a plastic bag that some of her new clothes came in.

She comes out and slips the plastic bag into the duffle bag. "Sam if you want I can sleep on the couch." Sam doesn't look up from his laptop. "No it's okay, I'll sleep on the couch, and you can take the bed." Morgan climbs on the bed closest to the bathroom. She covers up and leans against the headboard with the pillow behind her.

Dean drinks a beer while they watch TV. She yawns and finally decides to go to sleep. She pulls the pillow down, takes off her glasses and sets them on the nightstand and turns to her back. Dean glances at the bed where she's sleeping and then back at the TV.

Sam closes the laptop and goes to the couch and looks at Dean passed out. Sam sighs and goes to the other bed. He is a sleep as soon as his head hits the pillow. The sound of steady breathing is all you can hear.
