[h1] AnnaBeth and Cason [/h1] 

Annabeth’s eyes were the size of saucers, staring at Cason.  She didn’t understand why he couldn’t move.  But he seemed to know why, and was extremely angry.  Her fear and shock turned into nervous tears as Natalia snapped at her.  Her body flinched before she narrowed her teary eyes, causing a tear to fall, “A what?  Demon?!  Demons are real?”

“Kitten…listen.  I can explain.”, Cason calmly muttered, holding a hand out in front of both women, mostly to try and keep Natalia for throwing anything at him…or as the Winchesters seemed to be keen to do, stab him, “Stay back!”

Annabeth positioned herself almost behind Natalia as Cason spoke, terrified of the man she had been dating for the past two years.

[h1] Dean Winchester [/h1]

Dean took the water from Mika, cracking it open and nearly drinking the entire bottle in one long gulp.  Sighing in relief, he placed a hand over his eyes, “He must have made a deal.  Whatever dug me up or rode me out…it’s nothing good.”

He glanced up at Mika, taking in all of her features.  Good terms…bad terms.  He was good to see her, “I’m glad to be back.  But, don’t get too excited.  Look at this.”

He then unbuttoned his sleeve, and pulled his arm from his shirt, showing Bobby and Mika the handprint left on his upper arm.  This caused Bobby to stand from his chair, his eyes wide, “What the hell?”

“Exactly. What do you think we’re looking at here?”

Bobby brushed his fingers across the scared tissue, and shook his head, “I have no idea.  That seems like a good question for Sam.”

“Wait…Nat’s not with Sam?  Do we know where she is?”, Dean asked, glancing from Mika to Bobby.  Bobby simply shook his head, “Great.  Two needles in two different piles of needles.  I’ll activate Sam’s GPS.”

Dean sat down behind Bobby’s desk carefully, his body still sore from the walking.  He noticed all the empty bottles lying around and raised an eyebrow, “Hey guys?  What’s up with the liquor store?”

When Bobby didn’t answer him, he shifted his gaze to Mika.
