"Okay, this little boy, Peter Sweeney, vanishes and this is all connected to Bill Carlton somehow." Sam starts as we drive back to Bill's house.

"Yeah, Bill sure as hell seems to be hiding something, huh?" Dean points out.

"Again, I hate to agree with you but, yeah. Something was off about him." I agree.

"And Bill...the people he loves...they're all getting punished." Sam adds.

"So what if Bill did something to Peter?" Dean thinks.

"Maybe he didn't just do something to him...maybe he killed him." I suggest.

"Peter's spirit would be furious." Dean says.

"Exactly. He'd want revenge. I guess Peter's way of doing that is by taking away the people Bill loves first, then him."

"It's possible." Dean agrees.

We quickly make it back to Peter's house, but it seems like nobody was home.

"Mr. Carlton!" Sam shouts. I look towards the dock, thinking he'd be in the same spot like the other two times we've been here.

"Um...you guys might wanna see this." I tell them, watching Bill Carlton take his boat deep into the lake.

They follow my eyes and see Bill on the boat. The three of us rush down towards the dock in a flash. Sam and Dean run onto the wooden boards and it creeks again, causing me to stop.

I stare down at the wood with shaky hands as I think about how the boards could snap any second, how I'd end up falling right through and into the water below it.

I snap out of it though when Sam and Dean start shouting for Bill to turn around, and I move again, running towards them. I reach Sam and Dean just in time to see Bill and his boat go flying in the air.

"Holy crap!" I scream, jumping away from the near end of the dock. I watch Bill and his boat sink down, never resurfacing.

"I thought I was afraid of water before? I'm never going near it again." I whisper.

"We gotta call the station." Sam tells us. I nod rapidly, turning around and walking back to the Impala. I cling to Sam the whole time, eyes watching the water like it was gonna jump out, grab me by the leg, and drag me to the bottom of the lake as well.

"Jennifer, you need to relax." Sam coaxes me.

"I'll relax when I'm off this damn dock, Sam." I bit out, causing Dean to chuckle next to me.

"I can't believe you're afraid of water." He shakes his head.

"Um, did you not just witness what happened to Bill. Do you realize we're on a job where a spirit is causing people to drown." I exasperate.

"Trying to drown the Carlton's." He rephrases.

"I don't give a damn." I drag out.

We call the station, and they sweep through the river for a body, but of course, they couldn't find one. Jake tells us to come back to the station to report what we saw, so we follow him back.

The four of us enter the station and there waiting is Andrea and Lucas.

"Sam, Jennifer, Dean. I didn't expect to see you guys here." Andrea gets up from her seat. I smile towards her in a friendly manner. My eyes go to Lucas, face turning to one of concern when I see him rocking back and forth.
