"I don't like this," she said under her breath as not to disturb her niece asleep in the backseat when they pulled up to the Red Springs Motor Inn.

Too many hunters in one place signaled something big was going down. She had been too preoccupied getting out of the city with Nessa that she hadn't kept up with what was happening in her secret world. Surly if something big was going down Allan would have mentioned it. She parked the car in front of room 111 and gently pulled her sleeping niece out. Uneasy about the unknown happening around her and her niece.

"Are we there yet," a sleepy Nessa asked her aunt without even opening her eyes?

"We're there honey," Abigail said sweetly with a smile on her face so to not alert the child of her concerns. Nessa opened her eyes and took in the sight of the motel.

"There are a lot of people here," Nessa observed. Nothing got by the child.

"Yeah there are, maybe there's a festival in town. You know how the city fills up with people during the holidays. Maybe that's what's going on here."

"But these people look dirty and some have guns and knives on them."

Damn the child didn't miss anything! "Maybe their hunting."

"More hunters! Maybe the Winchesters are here?"

The child was obsessed and now excited. Allan would have a hard time getting her to sleep tonight. He had seen them pull up and was out the door taking his now wide awake daughter in his arms.

"What's going on," Abigail asked?

"Let me have a moment with my daughter," he said to his sister. His tone made her even more uneasy.

Abigail nodded and went back to the car to get their stuff out. As she was getting out Nessa's new carryon bag she saw one of their dad's old friends in the parking lot. Allan needed to have Nessa to himself for a while so she put their stuff back in the trunk and went over to talk to Bobby Singer.

Bobby was with a tall, young man. Abigail guessed it was Dean Winchester, since Bobby was closely associated with the Winchester brothers, and she had met Sam years ago in Florida.

"Hi Bobby, you might not remember me but you and my dad use to hunt together," she barely got the sentence out when a huge smile lit across the seasoned hunters face.

"Abigail Colt! My god it's been years! You've grown up. I was telling your brother how sorry I am to hear of your dad's passing."

"Thank you Bobby. So you've talked to Allan?"

"Oh Abigail this is Dean Winchester." Bobby realized that Dean had been silent.

They shook hands. "I know your brother. Sam and I met in Florida several years ago. Him and your dad were working on a case involving a banshee. How is he?"

"You knew Sam," Dean's voice choked? Here was someone who could tell him something about his brother that he didn't know. Fill him in on a part of Sammy's life that Dean wasn't part of.

"Knew? Oh I'm sorry. I didn't realize." She was taken off guard.

The pained look on Abigail's face let Dean know all he needed. He definitely needed to talk to Abigail.

"He was a great hunter. He'll be missed," she said softly before changing the subject.

" So what's going on? My brother mentioned nothing to me."

"Sidhe. And a lot of them. Hope you kids have a hell of a lot of bullets. We're going to need them."

"Hope my brother does. We had an incident at the house a few days ago. That's why Nessa and I are here. We lost a lot of equipment and weapons."

"Yeah, Allan said a demon tried to get Nessa. Caused a fire."

"Understatement, but yes. Bastard blew the house to bits."

"Aunt Abby," Nessa's voice came from behind her. "Daddy wants you." Nessa was standing by the car.

"Get back inside honey. I'll bring our stuff in in a minute." Sidhe loved to take children but she didn't want to alarm Nessa. Turning back to Bobby and Dean she said her goodbyes.

"Nice seeing you again Bobby. Nice meeting you Dean. Sorry about Sam." She walked away determined to give Allan nine levels of hell for bringing Nessa into a situation as dangerous as this.

Dean got his duffle out and went into his room. Abigail knew Sam, he wanted to talk to her but she was in no state right now. His cell phone rang, it was Ben.

"Hello," Dean said.

"Dean something took mom. She's gone," the kid was frantic!

"Where are you?"

"In the house."

Dean had a very bad feeling. "Ben I want you to get out of the house now."

He was already out the door and in the car. "Ben are you out of the house?"

"Yes." Just then Dean heard an explosion in the background. "BEN," he screamed into the phone!

"I'm alright, the house just exploded!"

"Go to Jim and Sally's. I'll be there as soon as I can."
