New Day, New Town

Chapter Nine

The fact that her heart could give up on her at any moment scared the hell out of Anna, she had always expected to die young but not from a heart condition. She was supposed to go out fight some bad-ass creature that seven people knew existed. The look on Dean's face hurt more then anything she had ever experienced in her life. They were in love once, it was only a few weeks but she had never felt that again not until she and Dean had found each other again. Anna didn't want to do anything to hurt him, but not telling him about her being sick had. It scared him knowing she could go to sleep one night and not wake up the next. But in all honesty, when would she have told him? They fought first, laughed a little later, drank and played pool, then had sex after. Maybe before she ordered her sixth beer should have said something? She was going to tell him, she swore she would, but not their first night together.

After the talk the two had they went back other to their siblings room to figure out where else to look for the vampires nest. With the four of them splitting up and meeting up in the morning to trade info they were able to eliminate all places they could be hiding. Unfortunately there was no sign of a vampire or any other supernatural creature in any other the barns.

"Wait." Anna said staring at the map Sam had opened out on the bed. "What's that there?" She pointed to a large open spot on the map.

Sam leaned in giving it a closer look. "Looks like a saw mill." He moved over to the table where his laptop sat open and on. He stated typing in a few things before look back to Dean, Ellie, and Anna. "It was shut down 15 years ago, there was a huge accident. Beam fell from the ceiling killing 6 of the working, put 2 in a wheel chair for life and 5 more into the hospital for 3 months."

"Whoa." Was all the came from Dean.

"Yeah. It's the only place we haven't looked, seems like the perfect place for them. No one goes there because the memory of what happened is still pretty fresh in the towns minds, it's cold and dark, and it's outside town but close enough where they only have to drive 15 to get to a bar or into a large group of people."

"Let's go then, before we're too late. They'll probably be going out soon, we wanna get there before they walk up and get going for the day." Ellie moved over to the table, grabbing her black sweatshirt.

"Agreed, we need to get moving." Anna picked her black leather jacket up off the bed and threw it on.

Sam and Dean nodded and followed the sisters out of the motel room, Dean walking behind Anna. He gave Sam a glance and a quick nod to tell him to go ahead as he reached for Anna wrist to pull her back. She turned to him in confusion.

"What is Dean?"

He paused for a moment, gathering his thoughts. "Look…Is this really a great idea?"

Anna tilted her head, keeping her self calm by taking a deep breath and closing her eyes for a second. "Dean, if this is about the heart thing just drop it right now."

"Too much stress can't be good for you, maybe you should just sit this on out." Dean saw the anger wash over her face.

"Seriously? I've been doing things like this and worse since I was 8. Dealing with all this stuff since I found out about my heart condition 8 years ago! It's not like I don't know how to deal with it Dean! I can take care of myself!"

"I'm just looking out for you Anna! I don't want to see something happen! I don't want to see you drop to the floor right next to me as a vampire charges you!" Anna clenched her jaw, turning on her heel to walk away but Dean took two long strides to get in front of her. "Will you Just listen to me?"

"I am listening! You want me to stay locked up in a motel room while Sam, my sister, and you all risk your own asses! Sitting in a motel room isn't any safer then running in to a warehouse with guns blazing! I'm at just as much of a risk in there as I am facing off some vampire! Now, drop it and let go!" Anna turn to Dean's car once again, going to the back door and climbing in besides her sister.

"God damn it." Dean grunted as he got behind the wheel, Sam sitting next to him in the passenger seat. Dean looked in the rear view mirror at Anna, who's head was turned out the window with her arm across her chest.

The four comrades drove in silence for the half hour it took them to get to the saw mill. Pulling up Anna was the first to get out of the car and move to the trunk, Dean following suit. Anna didn't say a word to Dean as he opened the Impalas trunk to pull out their weapons. He glanced at her as he pulled out his and Sam's machetes while Anna reached in front of him to grab her own bag. Once in her hand she turned her back to Dean and walked to her sister, handing her the long sharp blade.

Ellie took her blade then walked over to Dean. "Look I completely agree with you, I've been telling her to take it easy for the longest time. But she won't, there's nothing I can say or do that will make her back off hunting. This whole thing has made her more reckless then ever, but telling her all this just makes things worse. If it's not really brought up she kind of forgets about it, forgets about what she's leaving if something happens. It's more stress for her if it keeps getting brought up."

Dean rolled his eyes. "She needs to be taking care of herself, not killing monsters. Isn't she going to feel stressed when she see you get thrown across the room?"

"Not as much as not being able to have her eye on me will. Just trust me Dean, I know my sister. Neither scenario is going to benefit her more then the other. I know you're worried about her but yelling, fighting, and getting her all worked up isn't going to help." Ellie smiled lightly then walked over to Sam.

The four walked to the mill softly, making as little noise as possible. Dean moved swiftly to the main entrance first, staying tight against the steal wall of the run down building. He side stepped to the door, looking in the 6 inch opening and shining his flash light into the front hall. Seeing knowing he took a step inside taking another look around before motioning that it was all clear. Anna entered first, followed by Sam then Ellie pulling up the rear.

The four moved through the mill, checking ever room before entering the main working area which was fully open. Old rusted machinery place throughout the gigantic space, the beams that had caused the tragic deaths of 6 innocent people lay in the middle of the room.

"Well, what do we have here?" Dean's head shot up, his body instinctively moving in front of Anna's. On the catwalk about was a man who looked no more then 32 wearing a long black leather duster. The had shaggy blond hair and a hungry look in his eyes. "You know I've been wait to see when you hunters you walk in here."

Anna detected a small Australia accent in his voice. She took a quick glance to find Ellie, who had Sam stand protectively in front of her. "You didn't have to wait too long."

The man above them let out a cold heartless laugh before leaping into the air and landing ten feet from where the small group stood. "True, it took you a lot less time to find me then I had expected."

"You?" Dean questioned, taking a step back. "You're alone?"

The man just nodded with a sickening grin. "I don't play well with other you see. They never see eye to eye with me and usually end up dead." He shrugged nonchalantly. "It doesn't matter, I work better alone. Although, if you really would like me to have a friend I'll gladly take that pretty little thing behind you." He smiled once again letting his second set of teeth descend.

Dean's body went rigid. "Yeah, over my dead body."

"I figured you'd say something like that." In a flash the man in the leather duster charged Dean, who brought his arm back ready to strike but was thrown back into a support beam.

The vampire grab Anna by her throat and pulled her into a death grip against his chest. Dean scrambled to his feet and lunged forward to attack but was stopped when he saw Anna in the mans arms. "Let her go you son of a bitch!"

Sam and Ellie stood just feet away from the deadly vampire and Anna with their blades ready. Ellie made a move forward but the vampire tightened his hold on her sisters throat making her gasp for air and gab at his hand. "I won't do that if I were you now, sweetheart." He turned his head to Dean when he saw him moving. "Hold on now boy, don't you like seeing your girlfriend alive with rosy red cheeks?" He leaned his head closer to Anna's, breathing in deeply. "You smell…Fantastic sweetheart."

All of a sudden Dean charged the Vampire, who had clearly not expected the move. He released his hold on Anna, throwing her to the ground to defend himself against Dean's attack. But before Dean was close enough to feel a blow from their opponent, Anna was back on her feet with her blade in hand and swung with out hesitation, hitting her mark clean.

The vampires head hit the floor and his body fell soon after. Dean. Sam, and Ellie stared at the dead vampire in amazement, barely noticing that its body wasn't the only one on the floor.
