Chapter 5
"Because, you two are the cure." James said.
"The cure to what?" Mel asked.
"Demons."
Sam tried Dean's cell for the millionth time. One ring. Two rings. Three rings. Sam ended the call in frustration. He sighed and looked at Bobby. She shook his head.
"Dammit! Where the hell are they?" Bobby asked no one in particular.
"Did you try Mel?" Sam asked.
"Yeah. Nothin'." Bobby stated.
"You know what we're gonna have to do, right?" Sam asked.
"Yeah." Bobby growled.
"Do you want to tell her team or do you want me to?" Sam asked sullenly. He couldn't imagine facing that one agent.
"I will. The FBI ain't got me on their hit list." Bobby said. Bobby parked in front of the hospital where the agent said he'd be. He turned to Sam. "You stay here. I don't want to give them a reason to shoot you."
Sam nodded. Bobby got out and walked into the hospital. Sam stared at nothing and thought about Mel and Dean. What if they were just getting grub? Both of their phones wouldn't be off. What if their phones died? Dean's, possible, but Mel wouldn't be so careless. What if they died? Sam stopped.
"They are not dead." Sam said aloud to try and convince himself they were alive. Sam took a few deep breaths and tried not to think about them. But he had nothing else to think about.
Finally, Bobby came out. He looked pissed. Sam had a feeling the agents gave him an earful. Bobby opened the door and got in. He slammed it and huffed.
"Well, they are tracking Mel's phone and are going to get her. They said for us not to interfere since it was our fault she's missing." Bobby said, starting the car.
"What about Dean?" Sam asked.
"They are actually delusional enough to think that Dean kidnapped her."
"What? Seriously?" Sam asked in disbelief.
"Yeah."
"Where are we going?"
"There's a place near here a lot like the Harvelle's. Just for hunters. We're gonna flash Mel and Dean's picture around, see if we can't get a witness." Bobby said.
Sam just nodded. They drove into town without saying a word. Sam thought about Dean. They were with Bobby when the agent called him. Once Bobby told then what happened, Dean stormed outside. Sam went after him, but couldn't find him. He was somewhere amongst the hundreds of cars on Bobby's property. About an hour later, Dean showed up.
"What took you so long?" Bobby asked him.
"Nothing. Are we going or what?" Dean asked. He had that steely look that told Sam not to say anything about it.
"Let's roll." Sam said. They packed a overnight bag just in case. Before they left, however, Bobby remembered something.
"Boys, I think there's a spell that can bring her memory back." Bobby said.
"Really? Will it work?" Dean asked. Bobby nodded. "What do you need?"
"I have most of it here, but we'll need to pick up a few things along the way."
Sam was brought back to reality when Bobby parked the car. As Sam got out, he looked at the bar in front of them. It was called Skully's.
Bobby and Sam walked inside and Sam automatically tensed. Most of the men in there looked brutal and strong. Some were cleaning guns and others were playing with knives. A few were doing casual things, like, hitting on girls or playing pool and darts.
Bobby took out a picture of Mel and Dean after they had gone fishing last summer. They walked up to the brunette bartender. He looked at them warily. Sam guessed he wasn't accustomed to newcomers.
"Can I help you?" The bartender asked.
"I'm Bobby Singer-" Bobby started.
"Ah, yes, your friend told me to look out for you and a...Sam, I think. Is that right?" He asked. Bobby and Sam looked at each other warily.
"What did my...friend say?" Bobby asked.
"He said to meet you at a warehouse at 7 pm. Mullen's Creek Warehouse for your, uh, get-together. Is it a party or something?"
"No. Just hanging out. Can I ask you something else, uh...what's your name?"
"Cliff. And sure."
"Well, Cliff, were these two with my friend?" Bobby asked, showing Cliff the picture.
"Yes, they were. Didn't say anything, though. Kept shoving dirty looks at your friend. Dunno why."
"Thanks for your time, Cliff, we appreciate it." Sam said. They shook hands and left.
"You thinking demon?" Sam asked as they walked towards bobby's car.
"What else would have the power to shut Mel and Dean up? Possibly a witch, considering there was no smell of sulfur."
"And the fact that the other hunters didn't attack it. Did you see those security cameras?"
"Yeah, can you hack 'em?"
"I just need my computer."
Sam pulled out his computer as he sat in the car. He turned it on and waited. Once it was on, he logged in and started pulling up the security feed from the bar. He looked around to make sure no one was watching and set it on the dash for Bobby and him to see.
"Pause it." Bobby said. Sam paused it and he and Bobby both exchanged looks.
"We should've told Dean." Sam said.
"Damn right we should've. Dammit! If we had told him, he never woulda fallen for whatever lies James told him."
"We gotta either tell Mel's team, or haul ass to that warehouse."
Bobby gave Sam the look. "To the warehouse it is." Sam said. Bobby started the car and they sped out of the bar parking lot.
