SuperPotter 3

Chapter 4 Sin City

Sam, Dean and Hermione are staying at Bobby's place. Bobby is working on the Colt, while Dean melts metal into bullets. Bobby looks at a magnifying glass at the Colt, and looks at a diagram of parts. Hermione is seated at another table looking through different books about symbols and spells.

Sam walks into the room. 'Hey,'

Dean looks up. 'Hey, what's up?' He asks.

'Might have found some omens in Ohio. Dry lightning, barometric-pressure drop,'

'Well, that's thrilling,'

'Plus, some guy blows his head off in a church and another goes postal in a hobby shop before the cops take him out. Might be demonic omens,'

'Or it could just be a suicide and a psycho scrapbooker,' Dean points out.

'Yeah, but it's out best lead since Lincoln,'

'Where in Ohio?' Hermione asks.

'Elizabethville. It's a half-dead factory town in the rust belt,' Sam responds.

'There's got to be a demon or two in South Beach,' Dean suggests.

Sam smiles. 'Sorry, Hef. Maybe next time. How is it going, Bobby?'

'Slow,'

'Eh, I tell you, it's a little sad seeing the Colt like that,' Dean points out.

'Well, the only thing it's good for now is figuring out what makes it tick,' Bobby responds.

'So what makes it tick?' Sam asks. Bobby looks up, not amused. Sam holds his hands up in amusement.

'So, if we want to go check out these omens in Ohio...' Dean starts with a straight face. '...you think you can have the thing ready by this afternoon?'

Sam chuckles. Bobby stares at him incredulously. 'Well, it won't kill demons by then, but I can promise you it will kill you,'

Dean smiles. 'All right, come on, we're wasting the daylight. That means you Granger,'

Hermione was still writing something down. 'Hold on just this one,' Dean walks over towards her but gets stopped by a sudden force. Hermione had her left hand up holding Dean back while writing down the last thing. 'And....I'm done,' She lets go of Dean and gets up.

'See you, Bobby,' Sam tells him as he, Dean and Hermione start to leave.

'Hey! You three run into anything—anything—you call me,' They nod and head out.

Sam, Dean and Hermione are in suits standing in a church. Talking to Father Gil.

'There's not much left for the insurance company. It was a suicide—I saw it myself,' Father Gil explains.

'Well, this shouldn't take long, then,' Dean points out.

Father Gil sighs. 'That's where Andy did it. It's the first time I'd seen him in weeks. He used to come every Sunday,'

'When did he stop?' Sam asks.

'Probably about...two months ago? Right around the time everything else started to change,'

'Change how?'

'Oh, let's just say this used to be a town...you could be proud of. People...cared about each other. Andy sang in the choir, and then one day, he just...wasn't Andy anymore. It was like he was...'

'Possessed?'

'You could say that. Gambled away his money, cheated on his wife, destroyed his business. Yes, like a switch had flipped,'
