Okay so we were screwed on fighting the ghost thanks to the ghost jacking our crap. I still wanted to know how it had managed to do it in the first place. I was seriously pissed about the fact that the family couldn't leave. Last thing I wanted was one of them to get hurt or killed plus them being there made it harder on us to complete the hunt. Kate was outside on the porch asking, "What's going on? What's going on?" Didn't we already make it clear that there was a ghost? Kate then screams before yelling, "She's there! She's there!" I whipped around looking, but didn't see the ghost. "Where?" Susan asked. The boys and I wanted to know the same thing; none of us like being weaponless. "She was right there in the woods!" Kat answered. Wait what that's not possible. "What's a ghost doing outside?" Dean asked. "You want to stay and find out?" Sam replied.
The answer of course was, no we didn't want to find out since we didn't have any of our weapons. "Everybody inside," Dean said. Yes because inside is so much safer, but really what other choice did we have? "Are you crazy? We need to get the hell out of here!" Ted said. "In what?! This ghost is hunting us! Everybody back inside now! Move!" Dean replied. I looked at Ted and said, "Seriously we have no other options or trust me we would take them." We all went back inside the house freaked out and not really knowing what to do. Sam, Dean and I searched the cabinets until we found salt. "Bingo," I said pulling it out. Dean made a circle big enough for everyone to stay in.
"Whatever's outside, it can't get in this circle. As long as the salt line is unbroken, this is the safest place to be." Dean told the family. "Safe from ghosts?" Brian asked. "Yes as a matter of fact." Dean replied. "Don't be condescending we know what we are talking about." I said. Brian clearly thought we were all crazy and had no intentions of listening to us. "Okay. I'm not listening to this anymore. Come on. I got to get my family out of here. Let's go." Brian said to his family. I let out a sigh not knowing what to say. "Nobody's going anywhere until we kill this thing." Dean said. I highly doubted they would listen though. "Sir, please. This is what we do. Just...trust us." Sam said. Sam was hoping they would listen and Dean was just hoping no one would die.
"You hunt ghosts?" Danny asked. "That's right," Dean said at the same time I said, "Sure do kiddo." Danny's eyes lit up a little despite the fear the whole family felt. "Like Scooby-doo?" he asked. I chuckled because the monsters on Scooby-doo are never real like the ones we face. "Better," Dean replied. Sam pulled out the photos Mrs. Curry had given us and walked over to Kate. "You saw her outside, right? Okay. Does she look like either one of the girls?" Sam asked showing her the photos. "Her. She was paler and a lot dirtier, but that was her." Kate answered pointing at one of the girls in the picture. "That's the girl in the walls." Danny said. Well then we have our ghost but how she is leaving the house is still in question. "So it's the daughter?" Sam asked.
"Makes sense considering how ghosts come to be." I said. Susan was freaked out so bad you didn't need my powers to know. "That girl in the picture...She-She's dead?" Susan stuttered out. "She killed herself inside this house." Sam told her. "So, what...the maid got her story wrong? Rebecca wasn't cremated?" Dean asked. That was possible, but there was one other explanation. "Unless her spirit's just attached to something inside the house." Sam answered. "Even so how's she leaving the house?" I asked. Sam grabbed my hand not knowing what to say, but knowing I was a little freaked out about the whole situation. "She hung herself in the attic, right?" Dean asked. Sam nodded. "You want to babysit? I'll check it out." Sam said.
Go with Sam without a weapon or stay with the crazy family in the circle? I thought about it but Sam gave me a look and I knew in the circle was where I was staying. "Look...I don't care who hung themselves where. Maybe something is going on here, but..." Ted started. "It's a spirit, man." Dean interrupted. "No, it's just some backwoods hillbilly bitch, and I'm not about to sit around here waiting for her to go all Deliverance on my ass." Ted said. I looked at him and wanted to laugh at the movie reference, but didn't instead I said, "We all wish that was the case, would make things easier but trust us we know what we are talking about. I've been doing this sometime and them way longer than me and it is never some chick."
Ted just looked at me like I was stupid before he looked at Dean and said, "Stop me." Dean was starting to get pissed at how no one wanted to listen. I was pissed and confused while Sam was confused and worried about all of us. "Listen, man. I've got a gun. You don't get your ass back in that circle, you're gonna have yourself a third hole." Dean said. I looked at him even more confused we didn't have our guns. "Dude, you don't have a gun." Sam said. Oh okay I got it now Dean was bluffing; good thing Sam said that quietly. "And? I'm not letting that bastard or anyone else die tonight." Dean replied. "You cool?" Sam asked. "Go," Dean replies. "You okay here?" Sam asked me before leaving. "I'll be fine although someone might get their ass kicked before you get back." I told him. Sam shook his head laughing at me and headed up the stairs.
We stood there waiting on Sam to get back quietly or at least we were before Ted spoke up. "Hey. Fonzie. Question for you. This indestructible force field made out of salt... Have to be kosher stuff, or what?" he asked. "I was serious about that ass kicking." I tell him. "Knock it off." Susan says talking to Ted. Hopefully he listens to her. A sound was then made, but it wasn't Sam. "Shh." Susan says. "What was that?" Kate asks. When we turn around the girl opens a door and enters the room we are in. At this point the fear is about to smother me, but I do my best to fight through everyone else's emotions. "Mom," Kate says. "All right, everybody stay calm. She's a ghost. She can't come in the circle." Dean tries to calm everyone. Of course that didn't work because the girl continued to come closer to us. At the edge of the salt she pulls out a knife and then steps over. "I thought you said ghosts couldn't cross the circle." Kate says frantically.
They can't which means that Ted was right as annoying as that sounds. "They can't. She's not a ghost." Dean says. "Clearly Dean now what?" I asked. My question was ignored when Ted said, "Shoot her! Shoot her!" Dean looks over at Ted and replies, "Yeah, about that... Go, go, go! Move!" Everyone begins to run except me. I refuse to leave Dean as he fights the girl. I was about to help Dean when Sam shows up. "Hey," he says before shinning a light in the girl's eyes. It causes her pain and she takes off. Sam, Dean and I then went outside to check on the family. "Hey. You okay?" Brian asks us. "Where is everybody?" Dean asks instead of answering. I looked around not seeing them. "Hiding," Brian replied. "Not sure what good that will do." I say.
Sam wrapped his arm around me in a comforting way. I was so glad to have him I probably would be freaking out if it wasn't for him. I had never faced something like this especially without a weapon it was pretty nerve wracking. "All right go, go get them." Dean says. "Go. Go get them." He repeats himself when he sees that Brian isn't moving. "So it's not a ghost." Dean says turning to Sam and me. "So, it's just a girl?" Sam asks. "Unfortunately yes," I reply. Dean just gives me a look like really now. "It's not just a girl. It's psycho Nell. I'm telling you, man...humans." Dean tells Sam. I kind of shake my head in agreement.
"So who is she then?" Sam asks. "I don't know." I reply. Dean thinks for a minute before saying, "I don't know. Maybe it's the daughter, Rebecca. Maybe she didn't hang herself." I highly doubt that it's Rebecca, but who it could be is still in question. "Dude, no. She'd have to be like fifty years old by now." Sam says. That's true and this girl didn't look very old. "Well, I don't know. What'd you find in the attic?" Dean asks. I look up at Sam wondering if he found anything. "Some old junk. I found Rebecca's diary. That's about it." Sam replied. "Hey maybe the diary has some answers." I tell the boys.
"I wish you'd found a howitzer. Listen, we got to get this family safe. I mean, it's just a human, so they can make a run for it. We just got to hold her off." Dean says. He's right if we can keep the girl from the family they can make it to safety. I really didn't want anybody to die tonight. "We're okay." Susan says walking up to us. "Danny! Ted! We got to go!" Brian yells. Ted then walks up saying, "I'm good." So far it seemed the whole family was okay which is good. "Danny come on," Susan yells. He doesn't seem to be listening. "Danny, buddy, we got to go!" Brian yells. Okay that kid really needed to listen before he got hurt.
"Told you it was some crazy bitch." Ted tells us. I look at him aggravated that he had to say told you so; it was such a childish thing to do. "Yes you did." Dean replies. I hate that Ted was right. but at least with a human we stand a chance of protecting these people. "Head to town. We'll take it from here, okay?" Sam tells them. "Danny, come on, baby! We're leaving!" Susan yells. I was beginning to worry about the boy. Where was he? "Danny, we got to go!" Brian yells. This isn't good why wasn't Danny coming when his parents hollered for him? Had the girl gotten to him? I really hoped that wasn't the case. "Brian, where...Where is he?" Susan asked. Brian yelled for him again, but still no answer.
Brian and Susan were frantic over their missing son. I couldn't blame them though especially with that psycho running around. I just hoped that the girl hadn't gotten to poor Danny. I can honestly say this is the worst hunt I have ever been on. "Danny," Susan yelled. It didn't seem to be doing any good; no matter how much she yelled Danny never turned up. "Suse, Suse, Suse. We will find Danny, I promise you." Brian said trying to reassure her. It wasn't working though she wanted to stay with us even though it wasn't in her best interest. "No," she told Brian. I could understand her wanting to find her son, but we were there and we stood a better chance of finding him if we didn't have her and her daughter to worry about. "No. Take Kate and go now. Now, while you still have a chance." Brian said.
What the girls needed to do was hide some place safe till we found Danny that way we could get them all out of there safely. "Not without Danny." Susan replied. "Ugh I swear," I said under my breath. This conversation kept going in circles and I was about fed up. "We will find him." Brian said. "I am not going out there with Mom alone." Kate said. "I don't blame ya kid." I told her. "She's right. Until we find your son, the safest place for you right now is in the shed." Dean said. "Yes I agree it will be easier to look for Danny if we aren't worried about you guys." I tell them. Of course what we want and what they want differ. "I am not going in there either." Kate says. "Yes, you are. It is the best defense. The windows are boarded up. It's got one door. It's our best shot right now. Trust me." Dean tells her. I look at her pleading with her to listen to us. "Suse. Kate. Go. Go." Brian tells them and they finally listen.
"All right, you, Cassidy and me will take the outside. You two take the house. Let's go." Sam says looking at Brian and I before looking at Dean and Ted. Unfortunately or maybe fortunately I'm not entirely sure, we didn't find anything so we went to the shed with the girls and barricade the door. "Look, why are we just standing here? Let's go in. Let's check the house." Brian said. "Dean and Ted are checking it we need to stay with the girls till they get back." I say. "We have to wait for those guys to get back, okay?" Sam says reinforcing what I had said. We then hear what sounds like a knock. "Sam Cassidy it's me." Dean says. Sam looks at me and Brian saying, "Help me." We begin to move what we have blocking the door so that Dean can come in.
Dean walks in, but Ted isn't with him and it doesn't look like he found Danny either. "Did you get Danny?" Susan asks even though the answer seems pretty obvious. "No," Dean replies. I can feel sadness coming from him and it makes me wonder what happened in the house. "No? Well, where's Ted?" Susan asks. Dean's sadness grows at the question and I know what happened without him having to say it. "He's outside." Dean answers. I wish he would quit beating around the bush and just tell her. "Well, why doesn't he come inside?" Susan asks. I'm beginning to wonder if she is always this daft or if her stress is just making it hard to pick up the clues. "Because I had to carry him out. I'm sorry." Dean tells her. I shake my head now that he confirmed what I already knew.
"You're...what does that mean? What does that mean, you're sorry?" Susan asked and if I hadn't felt sorry for her because of her loss and her son missing I would have rolled my eyes at her. "Are you saying that he's dead?" Brian asked. Their fear had turned to sorrow and I felt for them, but we still had to get out of here. "Unfortunately Brian that is exactly what he is saying," I tell him at the exact same time Susan says, "No. No, he's not saying that he's dead. You're not saying that, are you?" She must not of heard me though because when Dean starts, "We were in the walls and she attacked." Susan's eyes grow wide and she cries out, "Oh my God." I lowered my head upset that we lost someone. I had been hoping that we would be able to save them all. Dean then finishes with, "And I couldn't get to him in time."
Dean was really hating on himself right now so I reach over and grab his hand. He was my best friend and I wanted him to know I was there for him. "Uncle Ted is dead?" Kate asked. As sad as the situation was it took everything in me not to snicker at the rhyme; I'm an awful person. "I shouldn't have left him alone I'm very sorry." Dean said before letting go of my hand and walking outside. I felt more sorry for him than I did the family because of everything he had been through; now one more loss for him to have on his shoulders. It wasn't fair how much Sam and Dean had been through. Wasn't losing their mom enough? The answer was no obviously since they lost their dad as well and Dean went to hell and Sam got manipulated by a demon whore and now another innocent life gone. Hunters really got the shit end of the stick, some more than others. I wish I could take the boy's pain away, but I couldn't plus I had my own to deal with.
Sam began reading Rebecca's diary hoping to find some answers on who the girl was. "We'll find him, Suse. We will," Brain tells Susan. I assume they are talking about Danny since there was no one else to find. "Where else is there to look? Danny's dead, isn't he?" Susan asked. I looked at her trying to convey my condolences for her loss as well as my hope that her son was still alive. "No, Suse." Brain answered. She didn't look too reassured though. "He is. Why not? She killed my brother. Now she killed my son." Susan told Brian. I could understand why she would think that, but we hadn't found his body so there was still hope. "No, Danny is alive." Brain said. Susan shook her head not believing him. "No, no, he isn't." she argued. "Yes, he is. Do you remember what he said about the girl who lived in the walls? She said he could stay." Brian told her.
Well then if she wanted him to stay she wouldn't have killed him. This gives me more hope that he is alive and possibly just locked in a room or something. "No. No. I just don't understand why this happens to us. I mean, we're good people. We're a good family." Susan says. I look at her and say, "All who see such things ask the same question, but we never do find an answer. The only thing we can do is move on." I tell her. I honestly believed what I told her. I had asked my self so many times why I had went through what I did and I know the boys had as well. We never really got our answers though and probably never would; that's why we moved on and now hunt things and save lives. "What happened to Andy happened, okay? I cannot change that. But I will find Danny, I promise you. And when I do, we are gonna be fine. You and me, the kids, we're gonna be fine." Brain tells her. That's when I noticed that Sam had been pretending to read while he listened to us. "Okay," Susan replied. Sam then went back to reading when he realized I had caught him. Although I don't blame him for listening to that last bit; who was Andy?
I stepped outside with Brian to where Dean was. It was stuffy in the shed plus I really had no reason to be in there. "Andy your son?" Dean asked. Well that would be an interesting twist. "Oldest. He got himself killed in a car accident last year." Brian replied. That answers that question then. "I'm sorry," Dean told him. "I am to Brian it must've been hard." I said. He looked at me then back at the house. "It nearly tore Suse and I apart. Still could, I imagine. That's why we moved here. Fresh air, fresh start. Not even my line. Marriage counselor. 'Course, she might be right. After all, what could possibly go wrong in the country?" Brain told us. I looked at him and shrugged my shoulders; wouldn't do any good to say a lot apparently.
"I'm getting your son back. If it's the last godforsaken thing I do." Dean tells Brian. I really hope we do get Danny back, but I don't want it to be the last thing Dean ever does. "Why do you care so much?" Brian asked. Before Dean could answer him Sam walks out holding the diary and says, "We need to talk." That's not foreboding at all Sam. We walk away from Brian so that we can talk. "What is that?" Dean asks pointing at the diary. Really Dean, Sam told you what it was when he found it. "Rebecca's diary. I just finished reading it," Sam tells him. "And?" Dean asked. "That girl back there? Pretty sure she was Rebecca's daughter." Sam answers. My eyes widen is surprise before I ask, "Seriously why didn't Mrs. Curry mention a kid?" Dean looked at me then asked Sam, "Rebecca had a kid?"
Okay this hunt was getting weirder by the second. "It's all she talks about. Being pregnant, being ashamed of being pregnant." Sam tells us. I frown not seeing a reason to be ashamed about having a kid. "Jeez, rent Juno and get over it. Wait, why kill herself after the baby?" Dean asks. That is the million dollar question. "Maybe because her dad called her a dirty little whore and said he was gonna lock the baby up." Sam replies. What a horrid man that father was. "Why would he say that?" Dean asks. Sam doesn't say anything and it makes me realize that the kid was from incest. "Ugh what a horrid man." I say at the same time Dean says, "Oh gross." And it was gross beyond anything I could think of. "So the daddy was the babydaddy too?" Dean asks. "Dude was a monster, Dean." Sam replies. I look at Sam and shake my head. "No monsters don't harm their own he's worse than a monster." I say. Dean and Sam look at me before agreeing.
"Wow, a story ripped from an Austrian headline. Humans, man. So she's been locked up her whole life?" Dean asks. It would explain why she acted so feral. "You saw her eyes. Has she ever seen light? She's barely human." Sam replies. I remember the light hurting her eyes like she had never seen it before and had thought it odd at the time; now it all made sense. "Okay, so, what, then, she's been caged up like an animal and she busts out and ganks dear old Dad? Slash Granddad?" Dean asks. Not that I would condone such an act, but it would make sense. "I guess," Sam answers. I'm pretty sure that's exactly what she did. "Well can't say I blame her." Dean tells us. "I'm sure her life was hell, Dean. It doesn't mean she gets a free pass for murder." Sam replies. Dean gets a little angry at that and says, "Like you know what hell's like." I feel so sorry for Dean having gone through what he did, but that wasn't what Sam meant. "I didn't..." Sam started, but Dean interrupted, "Forget it."
Letting it go was probably the best bet. Dean didn't need to talk about his time in the pit anymore and we needed to find the girl. "So where do we find her?" Sam asked. The house was big and we didn't see her when we were there before so who knows where she was hiding. "Kid's gotta eat, right?" Dean asks. Of course she has to eat, but what does that have to do with anything? "What?" Sam asks. I look at Dean wondering where he is going with this. "He kept her hidden, locked up, but he had to feed her, didn't he?" Dean asks. "I guess," Sam replies. "Well obviously he fed her or she would be dead." I put in my two cents. "I think I know where." Dean tells us. I'm glad he has an idea because I want to find this girl before anyone else dies.
