Temptation to Cure

Chapter 4 "The Video"

It was a lot to take in. Sam wasn't sure if she was telling the truth, but it was his only hope.

"So what happens next?" Sam asked.
"We need to find Dean." Sage replied.
"So what's the spell?" he asked.
She hesitated at responding.
"It requires a lot of ingredients. Luckily, I have the majority on the list."
"So when do we perform this spell?"
"The first of December."
"So we better get started," Sam said eagerly.

They moved over by the desk where they brought out their laptops and looked up different ingredients together. They needed things like snake eyes, frog tongue, and ironically sage brush. Getting the ingredients wouldn't be hard, but finding Dean would be.

"Do you have any leads?" Sage asked.
"On Dean? No," he shook his head.
"I looked at a report from a missing persons file and I found something suspicious."

Sam looked interested.

Sage started again. "I read that the video camera saw a man with black eyes. It's not much but it's a start"
"Alright tomorrow we can go check it out," Sam said.

They continued research until Sam started drifting asleep. Sage moved his laptop and put a pillow there. She brought over a blanket and placed it over Sam. If he would have woken up he would have wanted to do more research. This was the only way.
Sage moved to her bed and got some shut eye. She had a tough month ahead of her.

The morning soon rose and Sage was the first to awake. She hopped in the shower, got out, got ready, and put on her shoes. Her stomach growled and she decided she needed breakfast. Ten minutes later she opened the door to see Sam half naked in his towel.
Sage, astonished and embarrassed, immediately said "Oh! Uhm wow. Sorry about that!"
Sam giggled and replied "No worries, it's just a towel."
"I brought breakfast," she said as she put the coffee and donuts on the table trying not to look at Sam.
"Thanks I'm starving," Sam said.
They ate their breakfast and was ready to leave.
"Your car or mine?" Sage asked.
It was between Sam's stolen blue Mustang that was so poorly restored that you couldn't tell what year it was. There was Sage's car on the other hand. She drove a red 1969 Camaro which was beautiful.
Sam laughed and went for her car.
They drove in silent with music on in the background. They finally reached their destination.
"We're here." Sage stated.
They got out of the car and walked into the Sheriff's office.
"Hi I'm Agent Smith and this is Agent Stone. We're from the FBI and they sent us over on the Lawrence case," Sam said.
The sheriff looked confused.
"The FBI is on this case? Well alright then follow me."
They all three walked into the main office. There were thousands of files stacked alphabetically. The sheriff handed Sage and Sam a copy of the report.
"May we see the video?" Sam asked.
"Sure thing," the sheriff replied.
Watching the video was horrible. A man beaten brutally by possibly Dean was just barely keeping the donuts down.
The end of the video showed a man looking into the camera. Zooming in on the camera showed exactly what they needed to see. Dean Winchester.
Sage looked over at Sam who was too hurt to even look.
Sage looked at the sheriff.
"Thank you sir, I believe we have everything here."

She looked at Sam who couldn't take his eyes off the screen now. He looked like he was going to cry.

"Agent Smith? You coming?" Sage asked.

Sam got up, shook the sheriff's hand, and walked to the car quietly.

"Well at least we know where to start," Sage said hoping to break the silence.
"Yeah I guess we do," Sam said.

Back at the motel they did nothing but research. They did this for the next two weeks. They gained more ingredients, looked for more Dean clues, and worked together. Sam had no idea what was ahead of him.
