Authoress Note: Welcome to Chapter 19. This was a fairly interesting episode to write. I mean Aeron is going to feel out of place really. But it's worth a go. I can't say when Sam and Aeron will begin their relationship. Sadly it won't be in this episode. It would be kind of hard for it to be put there. But it will be a surprise. They do have some things to work out. After all Sam did do something that he should've never done. But their feelings will be out in the open soon. I do promise that. I got it planned out. Can't reveal too much. Spoilers. Would hate to give spoilers away. Without further ado Chapter 19.
Chapter 19
Somehow Dean had succeeded in getting Sam and Aeron to go to Los Angeles with him and on a tour no less. Dean wanted to treat this like a vacation and try to get Aeron to stop being so prickly with Sam. He wanted to try to fix the relationship that he saw forming between the two of them. They were both just too hard headed to notice.
Aeron and Sam sat next to one another looking uncomfortable sitting on a tour.
Aeron shifted a little bit in the seat. She fiddled with the fraying edge of her green shirt. This was going to be a long day.
"First opened in 1927, the lot has been in continuous operation for eight decades." The tour guide said.
Dean looked at the kid that was next to him who was eating an ice cream cone. "Hey, you know this is where they filmed Creepshow?"
The boy looked at him like he was insane and said nothing.
"Now, to the right, here is Stars Hollow. It's the setting for the television series, Gilmore girls. And if we're lucky, we might even catch one of the show's stars." The guide told them cheerily.
Sam looked back at his brother.
Dean gave him the thumbs up.
"Come on." Sam told his brother. He had enough of this. He wanted to get to work.
"Let's finish the tour!" Dean whined. He really wanted to finish it.
Sam hopped off the trolley with Aeron right behind him.
"Dean." Sam gave him the warning tone.
Dean got off of the trolley as well. He stuck his hands in his pockets.
The three of them walked around the lot.
Dean looked excited. "Sammy, check it out, it's Matt Damon."
Aeron rolled her eyes. "I don't think that's Matt Damon."
Sam nodded his head in agreement.
"No, it is." Dean said, narrowing his eyes at Aeron.
"Well, Matt Damon just picked up a broom and started sweeping." Sam said, rolling his eyes.
"Yeah, well, he's probably researching a role or something."
Aeron groaned. "Really come on. We're working aren't we?" Aeron said, looking at Dean.
Sam noticed a sigh. "Hey, this way, I think Stage 9 is over here."
"Come on, guys, let's keep going this way."
"Dean." Aeron crossed her arms giving him a look.
"Come on, we've gotta work." Sam said, shaking his head.
Dean sighed.
"Dude you wanted to come to LA."
"Yeah, for a vacation. I mean, swimming pools and movie stars. Not to work."
"This seems like swimming pool weather to you, Dean? I mean, it's practically Canadian."
"Yeah, I just figured that, you know, after everything that happened with… Madison, y-you could use a little R-and-R, that's all."
"Well, maybe I wanna work as Dean. Maybe it keeps my mind off things."
"Okay, okay, alright. So this crew guy… what did he do, he died on set?"
"Yeah, uh, rumors spreading like wildfire online. They're saying the set's haunted."
"Which isn't uncommon. Not really." Aeron said with a shrug of her shoulders.
"Like Poltergeist?"
"Could be a poltergeist." Sam said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"No, no, no. Like, the movie Poltergeist."
Sam shrugged his shoulders.
"You know nothing of your cultural heritage, do you?"
"Oh come on Dean. Not everyone is a movie buff like you are." Aeron said, putting her hand on her hip.
Dean rolled his eyes. "It was rumored that the set of Poltergeist was cursed. That they used real human bones as, uh, as props. And at least one of the three actors died in it."
"Well, yeah, it might be something like that." Sam said, letting out a sigh.
"Alright, so this crew guy… What's his name?"
"Frank Jaffey."
"Frank Jaffey… he got a death certificate or a coroner's report or anything?"
"Well, no. But, uh, it's LA, you know? It might not even be his real name."
"Sam, it might be his real name. He might be a ghost." Aeron said, shaking her head.
"But the girl who found him said she saw something… a vanishing figure." Sam said looking over at Aeron who he was beginning to get tired with. Ever since Madison Aeron had been prickly towards him.
"What's the girl's name?"
"Uh, Tara Benchley?"
Dean grinned. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, Tara Benchley? From Fear dot Com and Ghost Ship, Tara Benchley? Dude, why didn't you say so?"
"So now, you're suddenly on board?"
"Oh, I just… I mean, I'm a fan of her work. It's very good."
Aeron rolled her eyes. "A little too into her work if you ask me." Aeron said with a scoff.
"Come on, we 've got work to do." Dean said with a grin taking off without them.
"He's like a child in a candy store. We might want to follow him before we really end up losing him here."
Sam had to agree his brother was too much of a child at the moment. Meaning that they would probably get into some kind of trouble if they didn't keep up with the elder Winchester boy.
The two younger hunters followed Dean to make sure that he didn't get himself into trouble.
SPNSPN
The three of them entered onto the set.
Brad noticed the three of them. "Uh, excuse me, Green Shirt Guy?"
Dean pointed to himself quizzically, not sure if he had meant him or not. Hell Aeron had a green tank top hidden underneath a camo mini jacket. So it was confusing which one he was actually calling.
"Yeah, you. Come here." The actor said, rolling his eyes.
Dean exchanged a look with the two younger hunters. He then walked over to Brad. He wasn't so sure about this.
"Can you get me a smoothie from Kraft?"
"You want what from whom?" Dean asked in confusion.
"He's crashing." Aeron whispered to Sam. "Okay… scratch that. He's really crashing. He has no idea what a PA is."
"You are a PA? This is what you do."
Aeron patted Sam on the arm and quickly walked over to him. "Forgive him." Aeron said with a smile. "He's new here."
Brad looked at her and a smile came to his lips. Now he kind of wished that he asked this woman to get his smoothie for him instead of the new guy.
"Now that was a smoothie from Kraft, correct?" She asked with a fake smile. It looked real enough and thankfully this actor wouldn't notice it was fake.
Brad nodded his head.
"I will go and get that for you sir." She grabbed onto Dean's arm and dragged him away from the actors. "You're lucky that I know what needs to be done."
"What's a PA?"
"Personal assistant." Aeron told him. "Now let's go."
Dean followed her.
She looked at Sam. "Alright come on. Actors can be prissy little fuckers."
"How would you know that?" Dean questioned.
"Trust me. That fucker that asked you get him a smoothie from Kraft he's gonna be pissy if he doesn't get it."
SNSNSN
Dean had left Aeron and Sam alone together. He thought that it was a good idea that the two of them would be together. Perhaps to work together on this case more than the other cases. Dean would never admit it to them, but with how the two of them were acting was beginning to piss him off a lot. it wasn't that hard to admit that they liked one another. What was the problem? It wasn't like she wasn't going anywhere yet. She wasn't leaving them until Yellow-eyes was gone. If he could get them to admit that they liked one another then maybe he wouldn't have a problem.
Aeron groaned. "Did you find anything?" She asked, running her hand through her hair. She had talked to who knows how many people and hadn't gotten very far.
Sam rubbed his face. "No. Not much of anything."
"Let's go and find your brother."
"He is probably at the Craft services table."
"Knowing him, yeah."
The two of them walked over and met up with Dean.
"So?" Sam asked Dean hoping that he had found something. Anything really.
"No EMF anywhere,"Dean said, shaking his head. He really did wish that he found something really. Anything. But zip nothing.
"Great. So, what do you think?" Sam asked.
"Well, I think being a PA sucks. But… the food these people get, are you kidding me? I mean look at these things." Dean said, picking up a sandwich.
Aeron rolled her eyes. Of course he would go for the sandwiches.
"They're like miniature Philly cheesesteak sandwiches. They're delicious." He held out one to Sam.
Sam shook his head. "Maybe later."
Dean held it out of her hoping that Aeron would take it.
Aeron shook her head. "No, thanks Dean."
Dean shrugged his shoulders and took a big bite. "What'd you find out about the dead crew guy?"
Sam cleared his throat a little bit.
"Do you mind Dean? You seem to be distracting us with your… uh…" Aeron shook her head.
"Uh…" Sam rubbed the back of his head. "Frank Jaffey was just filling in for the day. Nobody here knew him or where he lived or anything."
"Oh, great. So you found out about as much as I did."
"No, not quite. I…"
Walter approached them. "Hey, guys."
"Oh hey." Dean said shifting a little bit.
"Sorry." He said leaning between them picking up a sandwich.
"That's alright."
Walter walked away with a sandwich.
"They're wonderful."
Aeron rolled her eyes. "Only you would say that Dean."
"Listen, I did dig up some stuff about Stage 9's history."
"Yeah?"
"This hopefully is good news." Aeron said, sticking her hands in her jean pockets.
"Yeah. Four people died here over the past eighty years. Two suicides and two fatal accidents." Sam told them.
"Huh. Well that might be vengeful spirits?" Aeron questioned.
Sam nodded his head. "Yeah. We've just gotta narrow it down more."
Dean smiled and saw Tara walking on the set. "I'll get right on that." He said walking away from them.
Aeron groaned. "Off he goes again."
"Leaving us with the research."
"Isn't that always the case." She shook her head. "Maybe he will come up with something good from talking to Miss actress over there."
Sam nodded his head. Perhaps Aeron would be right about that. Maybe just maybe his brother wouldn't do something stupid.
"Come on you two." Dean said, moving quickly.
The two of them shared a look. What the hell was going on. The two of them followed Dean quickly.
SNSNSN
Dean knocked on the door.
A man opened the door seeing the three hunters on his doorstep.
"Gerard St. James?" Dean asked, looking at him.
The man nodded his head. "Yes."
"You're still alive. And you're not Frank Jaffey." Sam said, putting his hands in his pockets.
"Uh, no?"
"You were Desert Soldier Number Four in Metalstorm: The Destruction of Jared-Syn?" Dean asked, looking at him.
"I was."
Aeron closed her eyes and shook her head. Of course Dean would go off on a talking spree with an actor no less.
"I knew I recognized you. I am a huge fan. Heh heh. I mean, your turn as a tractor crash victim in Critters 3…"
"Critters 3!"
"Wow. Yeah."
"Well, please, come in."
The three hunters come in and Gerard brings three cups of coffee for them.
"Yeah, it was the producers. They brought me up for the day to play Frank." He said handing them the coffees.
"Just to fake your death?" Dean asked.
"Well, rumors of a haunted film set, free publicity, especially when you're making a horror movie. I mean, uh, it's already all over the Internet."
"Yeah. We know." Sam said, looking at him.
"These days, it's all about new media, building buzz. They say I'm the new lonely girl."
"Who?" Dean asked in confusion.
"And the ghost Tara saw?" Sam asked.
"Projected on a screen of diffusion."
"Isn't that kind of cruel? Messing with their heads like that?" Dean questioned.
"Hey, I just played the part. I don't write the script."
"Seems a bit cruel to me." Aeron said, shaking her head.
Gerard didn't seem too bothered by what Aeron had said. "Speaking of, I'm playing Willy in a dinner theater production of Salesman at Costa Mesa, all next month." He handed Dean a flier. "You get a free pepper steak with the coupon."
Dean laughed. "Now, wait a second. If you're, if you're seen in public, wouldn't that ruin the hoax?"
Gerard scoffed. "Oh, please." He looked at Sam and Aeron. "Frank and Willy. Totally different characters."
"You know what? Thanks very much, Mr. St. James. It was just nagging at us , you know? But we're… we're very glad… you know, you're alive and well."
"Absolutely."
Gerard shook their hands.
"Hey, I wanted to ask you… what was it like working with Richard Moll?"
Sam looked at his brother in confusion.
"Metal Storm." Dean told Sam. "He was Hurok, KIng of the Cyclops people."
"Gentleman's gentleman."
"Yeah?" Dean chuckled. He put the theater coupon in his pocket. "Alright. Pepper steak."
Aeron rolled her eyes. "Alright. Let's go."
SNSNSN
The three of them walked down the stairs.
Aeron shook her head. "Could you be any more of a nerd Dean? Really fawning over actors. What's next for actresses?"
Dean chuckled. "Come on Aeron. We're in LA. Hollywood. Come on, at least let me enjoy myself a little bit."
Aeron rolled her eyes. "Come on. I think that there is still something going on at that studio."
SPNSPN
Dean, Sam, and Aeron had returned the next morning. They had found out that Brad had gone and gotten himself killed. That meant that there was something big going on there in Studio 9.
Dean and Aeron had to pretend to be PAs which well wasn't going to be that easy. Not when they had whiney actors and actresses bothering them to no end.
Aeron shook her head.
"Sorry." The actor playing Mitch apologized to Tara.
Tara let out a sigh. "Can we… Can we cut it or something?"
"Um… uh, yeah, cut. Cut!" The director said.
"That's a cut!" Dean yelled before going back to his taquito.
Aeron looked at him, narrowing her eyes at him.
"Only I can say cut." He walked up to Tara. "Hey, what's up?"
"I'm sorry. I'm just a little bit upset."
Aeron moved over to Dean. "You need to watch what you say." She told him. "They are gonna find out if we aren't careful."
"Alright alright. Sorry."
"Yeah uh huh. Sure you are."
The actor that played Mitch walked over to her. "Hey. You."
Aeron looked over at him in confusion. "Me?"
"How about you come by my trailer later?" He questioned. A flirtatious smile was on her face.
Aeron closed her eyes. Why was it always like this? This guy wasn't even her type. "Sorry, sir. But isn't there a rule against PA's going into actor's trailers?"
"No, not unless we get caught."
"Sorry… I love my job."
The man threw his hands up and walked away.
Aeron scoffed and rolled her eyes.
"These people are idiots." Walter said, irritated , leaving the set in annoyance.
Aeron blinked in confusion. "What the hell…."
Sam came up to the two of them.
"Walter's a little testy for a PA, huh?" Dan said, shaking his head.
"What was he so testy about?" Aeron questioned, clearly confused. Now she wished that the actor didn't hit on her. She missed some clear points that Dean had caught onto.
"How's it going in here?" Sam asked, hoping that his brother and Aeron had caught onto something. Anything to help with this case that they had.
"It is going really well, man. Tara's really stepped up her performance. I think it's probably from all the sense memory stuff she's drawing on."
"Sense memory?"
"Yeah."
"Dean, you, you know when I asked how it's going in here, I'm talking about the case, right? We don't really work here. You know, I thought you hated being a PA."
Dean shuffled on his feet. His face looked uncertain.
Aeron rolled her eyes. "Well I dunno about him." She took the headset off that she had and placed it down on the table. "I am quite done being a PA."
Dean rolled his eyes. "I don't know. It's not so bad. I kind of feel like part of the team, you know? It's good. Of course Aeron doesn't like it because she was just hit on."
Sam looked over at Aeron and saw the murderous look that she gave his brother. Someone had flirted with her?
Dean held out his plate. "Oh, taquito? They're wonderful."
Aeron rolled her eyes.
"No…" Sam said, shaking his head. "Um. Listen, I conned my way into the morgue."
"Copy that." Dean said into his headset. He looked at Sam. "I'm sorry, what?"
"Copy that?" Sam asked in confusion.
"What did you say?"
"The news reports were right. Brad's a doornail…"
"They are aware." Dean said into his headset again.
Aeron scoffed. "Might as well tell me. He's too into this."
Sam let out a sigh. "I thought so." Sam ran a hand through his hair.
Dean looked at his brother again. "I'm sorry, what were you saying?"
"The newspaper's right. Brad's a doornail, no question about it."
"I guess it's a good thing we didn't skip town"
"Yeah."
"Oh, come here. I want you to hear something. Copy that." He said into his headset. "On my way."Dean took the two of them over to Dave. "Hey Dave. Can you play them like you were playing for me earlier?"
"Sure." He handed the headset over to Sam.
The two young hunters made it work so they both could listen to what was being played to them.
"Thanks." Sam said softly.
"Doesn't matter. We're not leaving till… We found Wendy and your sister."
The recording cut out with static through the middle of the saying.
Sam and Aeron looked at Dean. He did come across something. So that was a good sign that they had a case and no case at all.
SNSNSN
They went backstage a lot later after filming had finished. They decided to see what they could find.
"EVP." Sam said, looking around.
"From the night of Brad's stage dive. All of a sudden, I'm getting electromagnetic readings up the wazoo. For some reason, it's a legit haunting now." Dean said in confusion.
"Well, who's the ghost, Dean? What's it want?"
"I don't know. I think we should take a look at Brad's death scene."
"That would make things clearer. Perhaps we can find out who the ghost that killed him is." Aeron said, looking at the brothers. "But I think we should go and get some rest for the night and come back in the morning."
The brothers nodded their heads in agreement to what Aeron had said. It was a pretty long day.
SNSNSN
The next day Dean led both Sam and Aeron into one of the trailers. Dean quickly went to the DVD player and put the dvd in that he had on him.
"Hey, where'd you get this DVD?" Sam asked his brother. He was surprised to even see a DVD in his brother's hand.
"They're called dailies. I got it from Cindy. She's kind of got this on-and-off thing going on with Drew. He dubbed me an extra copy."
The three of them watched the DVD.
"Alright, here's where the guy fell through the roof."
"Right." Sam said with a nod of his head.
"Alright, here we go."
"They must have super-hearing." Mitch said.
Brad fell through the ceiling of the set with a noose around his neck.
"Hey, wait, go back, go back."Sam said to Dean.
"What did you see Sam?" Aeron asked as Dean rewinded it.
"Right after. Right aft… yeah right. Wait. There."
Dean paused the frame.
It was something very different. A woman that was ghostly white looked like she had led Brad to his death.
"It's like Three Men and a Baby all over again."
Sam and Aeron looked at him confused.
"What the hell are you talking about Dean?" Aeron asked, tilting her head to the side.
"Selleck, Danson, and Guttenberg. And… I don't know who played the baby."
"What's your point?" Sam asked, looking at Dean.
"There's a scene in the movie where people say that the camera caught a ghost on film. Apparently, in the background of one of the scenes, there was this boy that nobody remembers from the set. Spirit photography."
"I've seen her before." Sam said, looking at his brother.
"Now that I think about it. I think I've seen her too. But… I am not too sure." She said, rubbing her face.
SNSNSN
Dean had his headset on sitting at a table with Sam and Aeron.
Sam handed him a print out. "Here check this out."
"Yeah, go for Ozzy… No, I don't have a 20 on Tara, I think she's 10-100… Okay, copy that." Dean looked at Sam. "I'm sorry, what were you saying?"
Sam shook his head. "Elise Drummond… Starlet back in the thirties. Had an affair with a studio exec. He uses her up, fires her, leaves her destitute, so Elise hangs herself from Stage 9's rafters, right into a scene that they are shooting."
"Just like our man, Brad. So, what, she's got it in for the studio brass?"
"Possibly. I mean, it's a motive. And Brad's death matches hers exactly."
"We're digging tonight aren't we?"
"What kind of question is that Dean. We are doing that." Aeron said, rolling her eyes.
Dean let out a sigh.
SPNSPN
Sam, Aeron, and Dean walked through the cemetery with shovels in their hands.
"Which way?" Sam asked.
Dean looked at the map. "Uh… over here."
They walked a little bit further.
"Hey."
"Yeah?"
Dean gestured to the memorial for Humpty Dumpty. "This map is worth five bucks. Hey, we've gotta go check out Johnny Ramone's grave when we're done here."
"You wanna dig him up too?" Sam asked, rolling his eyes.
"Come on boys. We don't have time for this. We are on a job."
"You know, Dean, what I don't get is why now? I mean, after seventy-five years, Elise Drummond suddenly goes homicidal, you know? Why this movie?"
"Well, maybe she's mad they're making a scary ghost flick." Dean said, shrugging his shoulders.
"Come on, is it really that scary?"
"Here we go." Dean said, stopping in front of Elise's grave.
"Yep. Alright."
"Yahtzee."
The three of them began to dig. They dug until they reached the casket.
Sam and Aeron got out of the grave.
Dean opened the coffin. He got out as Sam and Aeron poured the salt and kerosene on the bones. Dean lit a match and dropped it down into the coffin.
SNSNSN
Sam, Dean, and Aeron watched the police examine the crime scene where someone else got killed.
Sam rubbed his face. "Run-in with a giant fan. Same thing happened to an electrician back in '66, a guy named Billy Beard."
"What the hell guys?"
"I don't know. Doesn't seem like Elise this time, either. It's not her MO."
"No, we already torched her. So, what are we dealing with?"
Sam shrugged. "Maybe."
"Yeah, but these things don't usually tag-team."
"Stranger things have happened Dean." Aeron said, looking at him.
Dean groaned. Of course and this had to be one of the odder ones that they had to have taken.
SNSNSN
The three of them were waiting out on the lot with the rest of the cast and crew.
"Everybody. Gather around, okay! I've got an announcement to make." He handed his keys to a PA. "Hold that for me. Everyone! Huddle in! In light of Jay's accident last night, and in cooperation with the authorities, we are shutting down production for a few days. I know, I know. Look, I'm not gonna lie to you. We've had a few setbacks this week. But we all know what Jay and Brad wanted more than anything. And that was to see Hell Hazers 2: The Reckoning on screens all across America. Now, we owe it to them to go on, and to pull together to make this damn movie, huh?"
There is cheers and applause from the crowd.
"But… but but but not today. Go home. Someone will call you."
Aeron looked at the brothers. "Looks like we will be able to do this without much problems."
SNSNSN
Sam was in one of the trailers with Aeron watching more of the dailies.
"Ugh… they really need to pronounce latin better." Aeron said, crossing her arms.
Sam shook his head.
Dean came into the trailer. "Hey."
"Hey. So, did you find out where the electrician's buried?" Sam asked, hoping that his brother came up with something. Anything at all.
"He wasn't. Billy Beard was cremated." Dean told them.
"Oh that is just fucking perfect." Aeron said, rubbing her face.
Dean let out a sigh. "No idea. Any more ghost cameos in the dailies?"
"Not for the first six hours. You know, maybe the spirits are trying to shut down the movie cause they think it sucks. Cause, I mean, it kind of does."
"Sam." Aeron said, pushing his shoulder.
He looked at her.
"Rewind it."
Sam rewinded it a little bit.
"Listen."
Sam listened to it. "Listen to the invocation. Dean, that's the real deal… a necromantic summoning ritual. What the hell is that doing in a Hollywood movie?"
"Let's find out."
SNSNSN
Marty was busy on a phone call when he noticed Sam, Dean and Aeron at the door. "Guys, we're all shut down. What are you still doing here?"
"Yeah, uh," Sam began.
Aeron shoved him a little bit because he was stumbling over his own words. "We couldn't help ourselves. We just had to tell you that we read the script."
"And?" Marty asked, looking at them.
"Yeah…" Sam nodded his head. "It's uh… it's awesome." Sam said with a small smile.
"Awesome." Dean said.
"Really awesome." Aeron said, offering a small smile.
Marty smiled. "I know, it's pretty rockin', right? I'm glad you guys liked it."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I really liked, uh, all the attention to detail." Sam said, looking at Marty.
"Dude, right on, that's my thing. I mean you know, color me guilty, but that is me. I'm, I'm, I'm a total detail buff."
Aeron raised an eyebrow. Something wasn't right.
"No, I can tell. I mean, the way you worked in all those, all those Enochian summoning rituals and all the authentic language."
His smile faded. "What, you mean that Latin crap? No, man, that's Walter. Walter Dixon, the original writer. You like that garbage?"
Aeron crossed her arms.
"Wait, Walter the PA. Walter?" Dean asked, looking at Marty.
"No, he's not a PA. He's got a clause in his contract that allows him to come on set." Marty explained to them.
"But he wrote the invocations?" Aeron asked, looking at Marty, her eyes narrowed at the man.
"He wrote a whack-job screenplay. There's no pace, there's no love interest, it's all wackadoo exposition. I had to cut, like, ninety percent of it to make it readable, the other ten percent to make it good."
The three of them laughed.
SNSNSN
They ended up getting the script to read. It was called Lord of the Dead.
"Should've kept Walter's original 's actually pretty good." Dean said as he continued to read it.
"Yeah. And it reads like a how-to manual of conjuration, like a textbook on how to summon ghosts and get them to do whatever you want." Sam said, rubbing his face.
"Yeah, I like to kill people."
"Yep. So, let's say somewhere down the line, Walter learned some pretty black magic."
"Yeah. And let's say he's pissed at these people for wrecking his movie."
"Motive and meaning."
"Alright let's go." Aeron said standing up. "It seems like it is worth a check out."
SNSNSN
Dean blasted the ghost that almost killed Marty.
Sam turned off the fan.
"You are one hell of a PA." Marty told Dean.
"Yeah, I know." Dean said, rolling his eyes.
"What are you doing?" Walter questioned the three hunters.
Aeron hoisted Marty up onto his feet.
"I could ask you the same thing, Walter." Sam said, looking at him.
Walter began to climb up the stairs onto the scaffolding.
"Raising these spirits from the dead? Making them murder for you? That's playing with fire, Walter."
"You don't understand." Walter told them.
"You know what? You're right, I don't understand."
"Just… wait, look. You put your heart and soul into something, years of hard work. It's years, and then they take it! And they crap all over it."
Dean looked at Marty.
Marty shook his head.
"And then… and then they want you to smile and say, thank you."
"Walter, listen. It's just a movie. That's it."
Walter scoffed. "Look… I've got nothing against you, man. You're not part of this. Just please, please, just leave. But Martin's gotta stay."
"Sorry, can't do that. It's not that we like him or anything, it's… just a matter of principle." Dean yelled.
"Then I'm sorry, too." Walter raised the talisman.
"Walter. Walter, pl… Don't." Sam pleaded with him.
Walter chanted.
The set shook and four ghosts appeared.
"Sam! Red!" Dean raised his shotgun.
The ghosts began to walk closer.
"Come on, come on!"
They disappeared.
Sam was knocked onto the floor.
Aeron pulled him up to his feet. "Come on."
"Come on, come on! Move!"
The four of them began to run away. The lights began to short out sending sparks flying. They ran into another building.
Dean reloaded his gun. "Come out to the coast! We'll get together, have a few laughs." Dean said, quoting Bruce Willis.
"Oh come on Dean. There is no time to quote Die Hard." Aero said, gripping her gun a bit tighter. Dean then realized the building that they had entered was just a set for the abandoned house. "Oh man."
"I can't believe this. Ghosts are real!" Marty yelled in shock.
"What makes you say that?" Dean questioned, rolling his eyes.
The three hunters looked around on high alert.
"But I don't understand. How is Walter controlling them?"
"Probably that talisman." Sam said. Sam took out his phone.
"What are you doing?"
"I mean, if film cameras pick these suckers up, then… maybe, uh." Sam used his phone camera to scan the room. He watched his screen. He saw one of the ghosts heading towards his brother. "Dean! Right there!" Sam pointed .
Dean shot the ghost.
"Got him." He saw another. "Hey! Right there!"
Dean shot again.
They saw Walter walking around on the upper level.
Sam handed the phone to Marty. "Here, you get the idea?"
"Yeah."
"Alright, you hold them off. I'm going after Walter."
"You be careful Sam." Aeron told him.
Sam nodded his head and left the set.
"I cannot believe there's an afterlife."
"Oh, there's an afterlife, alright. But mostly, it's a pain in the ass.
"You don't say Dean." Aeron said, narrowing her eyes at him.
"There." Marty said.
Aeron fired the gun and Marty ducked."Come on. Let's get the hell out of here."
The three of them ran out only meeting up with Sam and Walter.
"Yeah? So why not?"
Aeron turned away when he was screaming in pain.
Marty brought the phone up and saw the ghosts tearing Walter apart.
Aeron looked at the brothers. "Well, I think we are done here."
Sam and Dean looked at her and nodded their heads.

A few days passed. Sam and Aeron were on the set making sure that everything was alright. They were watching what was being filmed.
"You find out there's an afterlife, and this is what you do with it?" Sam questioned Marty.
Marty looked up from his phone with a grin. "I needed a little jazz on the page."
"You know that this probably could be dangerous if someone found out that it was real." Aeron said, crossing her arms.
"Well I am sure that they will only think of it as movie magic. Thank you for what you guys did."
Aeron and Sam smiled.
"It is part of our job." Sam told him.
"It's what we do best. We save people." Aeron said with a nod of her head. "Shall we go and find your brother Sam?"
Sam nodded his head. "Yeah."
The two of them went out and walked among the trailers. The two of them passed Tara's trailer and Dean came out disheveled.
Aeron and Sam looked at one another.
Dean smirked.
Tara came out only wearing a robe. She smiled at Dean. "You're one hell of a PA."
"Thank you."
Tara saw Sam and Aeron. "Hi."
The two young hunters looked awkward. This was too strange even for them.
Dean walked over to them. He grabbed a sandwich on their way out. "God, I love this town."
Aeron rolled her eyes. "Only you would like this town. I think that this is the worst town that we could have ever been in."
"At least we got the job done."
Aeron scoffed. "Yeah. But Walter died."
"He brought it upon himself."
"I know."

This is the end of Chapter 19. I hope that you enjoyed it. Please leave a review. The next chapter there won't be much happening in the next chapter because Aeron isn't going with the boys. So it is going to be a little bit shorter than any of the other chapters, but I will try my best to make it a decent length. I wouldn't want to fail my readers in making a short chapter for Folsom Prison Blues. But I will try my best. Also for a relationship between Sam and Aeron. I am getting close. They still need to make up in order for something to happen. I won't reveal when that will be. Until next time.
