Hello again! Wow, I think this is like the fastest update I have ever done! But, I think I fibbed a bit, it will be more than five chapters. Oops!

I should have mentioned previously that there will be references to events from Seasons 4 and 5.

Thanks to all of you who sent such lovely reviews and added this as a favourite or on your alert list, I appreciate it very much! I would love to hear your thoughts on this one. Thanks again for checking this out! :)

"Dean?"

"Yeah?"

"You look a little zoned out, what's going on with you?"

"I'm fine Sam. Nothing is going on. I'm just tired. Just the regular, well, regular as in the worn out and in desperate need of sleep tired from tangling with that stupid, stinky, and have I mentioned wrinkly old hag? Nothing curse related dude so just chill. Quit hovering man, you're creepin' me out."

"Sorry, I'm just… are you sure you feel okay?"

"Yes, I'm fine, just like the other twenty freakin times you've asked me that in the past ten minutes!"

"Alright, geez, just wanted to make sure."

"Look Sam, it's been what, over an hour already? I think it's safe to say this so called curse from Mrs. Powerful Witch is a dud. Believe me, I've been cursed enough times to know that we've surpassed the witchety window of opportunity and are pretty much in the clear."

"I don't know man, this wasn't your garden variety kind of witch."

"Whatever. All I know is that I can't just sit here and watch you watch me, it's kinda unsettling and awkward. So, I'm gonna take a shower and wipe away all this skank residue. It just creeps me out and makes me feel dirty, and not in a good way."

"Dean, I really think we should…"

"No more waiting Sam. Look, I appreciate your over the top brotherly concern but… I. Feel. Fine. Can we just drop it and get some shut eye, I'm beat."

"Okay, maybe you're right, but just leave the door unlocked."

"Sam…"

"Can't help it bro, got a bad feeling about this."

"That makes one of us dude. Look, it's a good day. The witch is dead and we both walked away without a scratch. Look, I just need ten minutes dude, that's all."

"Okay."

"Wow, that was like the fastest shower ever, and hell, did you even bother to dry yourself off before coming out of there? You really must be tired. Dean? Dude, what's wrong?"

"Um…"

"What's going on?"

"Um… you're sure you ganked her right?"

"Yeah, I'm sure. Why? Dean, talk to me, you're freakin me out."

"What? No, it's okay. Just forget it. Probably… I'm just tired. Imagining things."

"No Dean, you need to tell me. What happened?"

"Huh, well, maybe I just got some water in my ear or something but I thought I heard… but no, can't be…"

"Spill it dude."

"I thought I heard her voice whisper in my ear."

"Damn it. Do you remember what she said this time? Just take your time and concentrate."

"She… it's… shit."

"Dean?"

"Crap, I, please, I don't know if I can do this. Sam, please, don't make me go through this again. Please! Stupid witch, how did she know? Damn it, uh, what time is it?"

"What?"

"Quick Sam, what time is it!"

"Um, it's a couple minutes to midnight. Dean, why, what's happening? What did she say!"

"No, oh God, no."

"Dean, look at me and focus. Calm down alright? Remember how I told you how you're gonna have to ride this out?"

"Yeah…"

"Okay, good. So I need you to take a few deep breaths and tell me so I can help you."

"It's… please Sam, there has to be another way, I… don't let this happen!"

"Dean, you're okay man. We'll get through this together like always. Whatever it is I can help, just please, let me in. Tell me."

"But that's the thing Sam. You can't help. Couldn't… I mean you tried, I know you did, but you couldn't last time, so you can't this time."

"You're not making any sense Dean. I don't know what you're talking about, of course I can."

"No Sam. The voice… she said…three, four…."

"Okay, and?"

"God I… I can hear them Sammy. They're coming for me. They're coming…"

"Dean, who's coming? Dean, who is coming!"

"Son of a bitch… they're here."

"Dean? What do you hear? What, do you see something over there? Dean!"

"Three, four… hellhounds at your door."

"Shit."
