Chapter 7

Scream

Sam raised his gun and fired blood sprayed across the rooms walls and the girl in the bed screamed at him.

Earlier that week the brothers had taken turns to sleep briefly while the other watched Demi's house. After a couple of days with no signs of any trouble the local police had changed their officers from permanent watch to drivebys.

They believed Sam and Dean as FBI agents(with Bobby's verbal backing)were sufficient to watch her while they continued their investigation into the killings.

"Dean this is no use the thing probably knows we're here we need to do something else." Sam was getting frustrated there had been no movement on the monster front. Their research had come up with zip and there had been no sulphur or emf signals.

"Yeah alright how about we head off then one of us goes into the house stealth mode and just hides till our slasher shows up." Dean replied.

"We can give it a try, so who's staying?" Sam asked

"Rock, paper scissors." Dean answered, Sam smiled and nodded the contest played out as usual even as a demon Dean still went for the sharp objects. Sam smirked as Dean grumbled and drove off leaving Sam to sneak into the house.

"Oh Christ! Agent Keitel what are you doing here?" Poor Demi had almost fainted at the sight of Sam popping quietly into her kitchen.

"I'm sorry to startle you Demi just trying a new tactic to catch the murderer, I'll be hiding in your house see if we can draw him out that way. Oh and please call me Sam." Sam was speaking softly hands held placatingly.

"Oh well ok Sam um do you need anything a drink or something to eat." She asked getting back some of her equilibrium.

"No I'm fine but we better let your parents know I'm here, don't you think." Sam replied with a smile.

After explaining the situation to Demi's parents, who were happy with the extra protection for their daughter, Sam settled in to watch for the night.

It was about 2 am Sam had nodded off when his demonic senses woke him, there it was, that bad feeling he'd had before. Something nasty was coming he was getting a powerful sensation of evil, he snuck quietly in to Demi's room lying low.

As he looked up he realised his eyes had demoned out he could suddenly see everything clearly in the darkness. Hmm that's pretty cool he thought to himself demonic night vision, he let his other senses take over.

As he did he caught a glimpse of colour coming from the girls bed light blue and green with some touches of orange and violet. He scooted silently and realised she was surrounded by a glow he thought maybe something was attacking her. She seemed fine in no distress then he understood, it was her aura he was seeing, trippy he had never heard of demons having that ability.

He studied her aura with fascination he felt almost mesmerised by its beauty when something by the window caught his eye. It was black with flecks of red and yellow, he could not tell what it was but he felt the evil radiating from it.

He stood very still as he watched it move then he saw a glint of shining metal, a knife coming close to Demi Sam fired his gun, hoping that the silver bullets might in some way slow whatever it was down.

He heard a guttural yell and a scream form the young woman he was trying to protect, he flicked on the light switch dreading what he might see.

With the lights on and his eyes back to normal Sam could no longer see Demi's aura, and he realised that the blackness was gone from the shape he had seen. All that was laying there was a teenage boy quite nice looking apart from the big hole where most of his chest used to be.

"Jason, oh god what happened!" Demi yelled her parents were in the room now and everyone was staring accusingly at Sam.

"Right I don't know who this is but he definitely was planning on killing you, look at that knife that is sure to be the murder weapon." Sam spoke with conviction.

At that moment Dean entered waving his gun until he took in the situation and put it away, he looked down at the body and at Sam who shrugged.

"I can't believe that little bastard did all this because one of those girls dumped him, what the hell Sammy makes me wonder why we bother to protect people from monsters when shit like this goes down."

Dean was taking another swig on a bottle of scotch he had been nursing, the brothers had spent the day dealing with the police and helping wrap up the now solved murders.

"You know not many people are like him Dean, we just help the good ones." Sam replied trying to convince himself as much as his brother that humanity was worth saving.

"Yeah well fuck it Sam I say with your new aura spotting mojo we get rid of a few human monsters too, the ones too clever for the cops." Dean was slurring his words slightly after all this wasn't his first bottle tonight, but Sam knew he was serious as well.

Sam mulled it over in his mind there was definitely something to it, sending a few bad seeds to hell a bit sooner than they should go appealed to him. He wondered if pre demon Sam would have agreed, but that guy had not seen that dark evil aura coming off a human teen. And the dumping well that was just an excuse the kid wanted to kill and he would have kept on doing it.

"Yeah ok Dean between supernatural hunts we'll sort out a few bad guys as well." Sam finally replied.

"Alright bro." Dean smiled and raised his bottle, he was still super pissed about poor little Jenn, and something in his demon side really wanted to do this and he didn't feel like fighting it this time.

Starting the trail down now, sorry to be slow with updates school hols on watching my own little demons. The title is from the movie scream as the idea of someone ordinary seeming like a super killer was what I wanted to make the boys go all badass on humans.
