Just the continuation from The Hunters. Hope you all enjoy!
Chapter One
The Winchester brothers were sitting around a bar at the Roadhouse while their sister was off with Jo, playing an arcade game that was in the corner. Sam had a nightmare of a older man walking into a gun section of a store and shooting the cashier before himself. Sam had noticed a sign for a bus company in upstate Washington. He winced slightly as his recently but luckily sprained wrist had to be adjusted in the cast his brother Dean had picked up for him.
"So, you going to take a few swigs of Tequila tonight before you head out?" Jo asked Christina who was focusing on the game as her tongue was poking out of the side of her mouth.
"You know I don't drink Tequila. Not since the last time, Jo." Christina said doing a fist bump when she had beaten the high score by just a few points. "Besides, I'm an adult now and they wouldn't slap my wrists if the same thing happened again. They'd throw my happy butt to jail."
"You are such a party pooper." Jo teased as they both headed back to where Christina's brothers were, now talking to Ash. "How about I make you a sandwich?"
"Grilled cheese?" Christina asked her eyes lighting up.
"For a shot of Tequila." Jo offered with a sly smirk and a hand on the hip.
"You're a bitch." Christina hissed taking the small glass of clear liquid and taking the shot. She coughed a few times before gently placing the shot glass on the counter and sticking her tongue out. "Now, may I order a grill cheese please? Extra cheese."
"Coming up." Jo said and headed back into the kitchen as her mother Ellen, who picked up the shot glass that was in front of Christina.
"You wanting another?" Ellen asked, seeing how the young woman in front of her was starting to go cross-eyed.
"No, thanks." Christina said glancing over at her brothers and Ash at the other end of the bar. "I was kind of cornered with it... all because of a grill cheese sandwich."
"Well, as long as you keep your clothes on this time, I think we'll be all good." Ellen said setting a small glass of water in front of her.
"Thanks for this." Christina said looking up to the woman who was like a mother to her for a few short months. "How are things going?"
"Been good. Lost another couple of retired hunters a while back. Luckily died in their sleep."
"Lucky them." Christina said pointing to a bottle of Whiskey. "Want to join me in a toast?"
"Don't mind if I do." Ellen said pouring two shot glasses and carefully set one in front of Christina. "Lucky bastards." she said before slamming the glass back.
"Lucky indeed." Christina said and slammed her shot glass.
Jo returned to set two grill cheeses and a large plate of french fries covered with cheese. "Enjoy. You did ask for extra cheese."
"You know it." Christina chuckled. "Thanks Jo."
Dean and Sam walked up after Ash stood up and headed for the hallway. "Okay so it is in Upstate Washington where we're needing to head to." Dean said snagging a small handful of french fries.
"So we're dealing with a monster that can make people do something against their will?" Christina asked grabbing one of her grill cheeses and taking a large bite.
"Not sure if it was against their will." Sam said looking over his laptop of the area from his nightmare a few nights ago. "It was like he got a phone call, something or someone told him to go into that shop and kill that man then blow his brains out."
"I know I shouldn't be squeamish about this stuff but don't say anything to make me loose my appetite." Christina said glaring at Dean who snagged another small handful of fries.
"What?" He asked with his mouth full of fries.
"Regardless of this current affair, we should check that out. Maybe it's someone like me." Sam said, sitting up and suddenly looking interested with the thought. "I mean, we know there's more kids, from the research from when Ash did it the last time we were here. Also there was Max..."
"So this idea," Dean said, giving his brother a look. "Is it a monster or a person?"
"Well there is a person of interest." Sam said, sliding a piece of paper that Ash had handed him. "Andy Gallagher. Best lead for now."
"Great," Dean clapped his hands before swiping yet another, maybe slightly larger handful of fries. "Lets get going."
Christina looked sad at the still large plate of food but Ellen had walked up and handed her a couple of to boxes. "Thanks." Christina said tossing a couple of twenties on the bar and dumped the food inside the boxes before following her brothers out of The Roadhouse.

The small quiet town seemed to be busy as the Winchesters pulled up in front of a small diner. Sam and Dean stepped out wearing nice suits while Christina stepped out in flats, a knee length skirt and a nice dark blue blouse.
"So Andy likes to frequent this place." Sam said pulling out a sheet of paper with Andy's driver's license on it.
"He doesn't look dangerous." Christina said looking at the picture then spotting him coming out of a small apartment duplex. "He does however seem too into himself."
Sam and Dean both spotted Andy walking out of the duplex wearing a silk robe waving at a girl that was in the window.
"So he's a lady's man." Dean stated sounding a bit jealous. "How are we going to approach him?"
"We don't yet." Sam said licking his lips and hoping he knew what he was doing. "We're going to ask those around him what they think of him. Get to know where he's staying at."
Christina and Dean followed Sam into the diner. They found an empty table and took a seat flipping over their coffee mugs. A young girl with shoulder length brown hair and a friendly smile walked up and filled their mugs up.
"You're not going to get much out of him." She said and the Winchesters saw the name tag say Tracey.
"I beg your pardon?" Sam asked clearly taken aback from her statement.
"You guys work for the IRS don't you?" Tracey asked giving them a soft gaze. "You're also looking for Andy."
"Well we are looking for Andy," Dean started as he tried to think of a better excuse then saying they worked for the IRS.
"We're actually lawyers to give him an inheritance he received by an Aunt that recently passed." Christina said softly. "We are just trying to find Mr. Gallagher so we can get him to sign the proper paperwork."
"Oh you three are talking about Andy?" A young man with soft brown hair and a wide smile came running up and standing next to Tracey. "Oh he's the best! He got me back stage access to an Aerosmith concert a while back. He's gifted with a silver tongue."
"That's enough, Webber." Tracey said gently handing him a rag and pointing to some tables which he almost skipped off to do.
"Sounds like a great guy." Dean said giving Sam a soft side eyed look. "Do you have any idea where we can meet him?"
"He's usually just walking around town, but his van is usually parked on Orchars street." Tracey said guessing the three wasn't going to order anything other then their coffee and set out a ticket on their table.
"What does his van look like?" Christina asked already pulling out some money and setting it on top of the ticket, leaving a generous tip.
"It's maroon with a Barbarian Queen riding a polar bear." Tracey said taking the money and giving Christina an 'Are you sure' look then shrugged when Christina nodded yes and the three left.
"So what kind of mastermind killer lives in a van?" Christina asked as they climbed into the Impala. "Why not somewhere stable?"
"That's the thing," Dean said pulling out into the street. "Most killers find a place where they can hide out. An abandoned van might be the perfect disguise."
"Not with that big of a decal." Christina pointed out as they spotted the van sitting alone on the side of the road pointing in the opposite direction. "But I guess when you can basically talk your way out of anything looks don't matter."
"It almost sound like you had experience with something similar." Dean joked only to be met with a dangerous side eyed glare.
"Well, yeah. Have Bobby tell you about the time he broke some punk ass kids' nose after he tried to get in my pants."
Both Sam and Dean shrugged knowing that Bobby was extremely protective over Christina by the way he acted when they first went to the house when their dad had been kidnapped. But now that they were dealing with something else their thoughts went back to the case at hand.
Dean and Sam pulled the handles of the van and were surprised that it was unlocked but they didn't seem to mind. As the door swung open all three were greeted by the heavily smell of drugs and some severe body odor.
"Well," Dean said blinking back some surprise by the sight of the untidy vehicle. "Seems like he's not exactly what you call psychopathic. I mean he doesn't have any John Wayne Gasy or Ted Bundy posters."
"It could be somewhere in there." Sam said already carefully shifting through Andy's clothes. "Keep looking."
"How about you guys look. No offense, but I've lived with you long enough to not trust your clothes." Christina said stepping back but spotting a massive Bong admist the clothes and carefully picked it up, making both her and Dean impressed by the size of it.
"This guys just keeps getting more interesting by the second." Dean said making Christina roll her eyes.
"Let's go. He's obviously not here and we need to go find that Doctor and Andy." Sam said then froze when he turned around. "That's the guy." He said but knew it was too early. "He's with Andy now."
Dean and Christina turned and saw an older man smiling and laughing while he spoke with Andy before they both walked off with a friendly wave. "Let's get out of these clothes and we'll tail Andy." Dean said and all three rushed to the Impala and climbed in.

Christina was carefully scanning the streets for Andy and his unique robe from earlier. She sat in the passenger seat since her brother Sam was walking around the area of the hardware store.
"Can you see him?" Dean asked after he looked over on his side as he drove slowly down a quiet side street.
"Nope. It's not even that big of a town." Christina sighed and leaned back into the seat. "Oh geeze this case is making me have a headache."
"There's some headache meds in the jockey box." He said and Christina quickly opened and grabbed the small bottle. "Do you need water or something?" He asked seeing her dump two small pills in her hand.
"No, I'm good." Christina said and tossed the pills into her mouth. After a few seconds she swallowed and tossed the bottle back into the jockey box. She then closed her eyes as she adjusted to snooze for a few minutes. "Gonna try and nap, if that's okay."
"Yeah, that's fine." Dean said and pulled onto another street. "Look at that, Street vendor hotdogs! Would you like one?"
"Yeah and a Dr. Pepper if they have one." She fished out a few dollars and handed them to Dean who hesitantly took it and parked his car. Christina watched as Dean waited in line until she saw Andy walking up to him. Her mouth dropped when he started to talk to Dean as if they were best friends and was in complete shock when he handed Andy the keys. Her mouth went dry when she saw Andy walking over to the Imapala while Dean went back to buying the hotdogs. Christina took the opportunity, as Andy was busy talking to Dean to see her, pretended to be asleep.
"Hey, wake up and get out of the car." The voice was young and had a weird reverberation that made it sound like it was being spoken through an autotune filter. Christina kept her breathing calm as the car started but it wasn't moving. "I said, wake up and leave the car." But Christina refused to move and it must have not mattered as the car started to move away with Christina "sleeping" in the front seat.
