Dean, Bobby, and Sam had no intention of letting Beck go back to the Black Falls by herself.

Unfortunately, Sam had given her the directions, she had thanked him, and left before any of them could protest.

"Should we go after her?" Sam asked the other two.

"What d'ya think, boy? The last time she was near that place we had to save her from drowning." Bobby snapped, irritated with Sam for giving Beck the directions in the first place.

"Well, let's get loaded up and go after her." Dean said impatiently.

Meanwhile, Beck was making her way back to Black Falls Pool. As she cleared the old orchard, she entered the clearing where, in her world, she and Kyle had met up with the others. Recognizing the clearing Beck sped up her pace to the spot where she, kyle, and the other had greeted each other.

If she had hoped to find any trace of them it was quickly extinguished as the tall grass looked totally undisturbed. Still hoping there would be at least some sign of Kyle and his friends, Beck scanned the area and walked around.

Every now and then she called, "Kyle! Eva! Jesse! Luke!"

No answer.

As Beck sighed and headed towards the Black Falls and its Pool she heard "Beck!"

Beck whirled around.

Coming towards her was Dean's Impala. Beck's face slightly fell at it not being Kyle or his crew, but her disappointment was quickly replaced with confusion at seeing the Winchesters and Bobby Singer again.

The Impala stopped a few feet in front of Beck and Dean Winchester got out.

"What are you doing here?" "What the hell are you doing?" Beck and Dean asked simultaneously.

Beck couldn't help but smile, she answered, "Besides what I mentioned earlier, hoping I can find a way back to, my own reality."

"And we were looking for you." Dean returned.

"Why? I'm not your problem." Beck stated, feeling suspicious and straightening her spine just a bit.

"No one said you were a problem and the last time you were anywhere near that pool you nearly drowned!" Dean shot back.

"The last time I was at that pool was early last night during a lightning storm. I was knocked into that fucking pool by a falling tree branch, that had been struck by lightning! So it's not like I'm a klutz or something!" Beck yelled her temper rising.

*In the Impala*

"What's goin' on now, boy?" Bobby demanded.

"Uuhhnn. they're fighting again." Sam groaned.

"Are you kidding me?!" Bobby groused.

"Nope." Sam replied.

"Aww jeez, boy just kiss her and git it over with." Bobby grumbled.

Sam turned in his seat and gave Bobby a funny look.

Bobby noticed the look, rolled his eyes, and slightly turned his head.

Great another one who liked the girl! Just what they needed!

"Blow the horn, kid." Bobby instructed.

"That'll piss Dean off." Sam replied.
