A few hours later we left heading over to the nearest hospital as we head inside as Dean was escorted to a room with us following closely behind him "so, you really feel okay?"Sam asked him with a smile on his face "I feel fine, Sam." He replied as the door opened revealing the doctor as he made his way towards us "well, according to all your tests, there's nothing wrong with your heart. No sign there ever was. Not that a man your age should be having heart trouble, but, still, it's strange, but it does happen." The doctor said.

"What do you mean, strange?" Dean asked him "well, about an hour ago, a young guy like you, twenty-seven, athletic. Out of nowhere...heart attack." The doctor explained "thanks, doc." Dean said "no problem." The doctor said before turning around to leave "that's odd." Dean said to Sam as he turned to look at him "maybe it's a coincidence. People's hearts give out all the time, man."Sam replied with a shrug of his shoulders.

"No, they don't." Dean said while shaking his head "Sam, I'm happy he's okay now too, but you have to admit that it seems a little weird." I said looking up at him "I'm not going to worry about that, Dean's fine, and that's all that matters." Sam replied "you can't just ignore the fact that something is off about that place just because we got what we wanted." I said looking at him "there is nothing to ignore, Addie. That man is saving people, not killing them." Sam replied as he turned to look at me with a smile on his face.


"Come on, Sam, you're a logical person. If you weren't so caught up in Dean being better, you would question it too. I mean, really? A guy about Dean's age dies of exactly what he was cured of on the same day? That doesn't seem strange to you?" I asked him "look, do we really have to look this one in the mouth? Why can't we just be thankful that the guy saved his life and move on?" Sam asked me "we've looked into less." I replied while crossing my arms "Addison..." Sam said with a frustrated sigh.


"Sam, stop. She's right. I can't shake this feeling, either." Dean chimed in "what feeling?"Sam asked him with a hint of concern in his voice "when I was healed, I just...I felt wrong. I felt cold. And for a second...I saw someone.
This, uh, this old man. And I'm telling you, Sam, it was a spirit." Dean explained "but if there was something there, Dean, I think I would've seen it, too. I mean, I've been seeing an awful lot of things lately." Sam said as he looked at him.

"Well, excuse me, psychic wonder. But you're just gonna need a little faith on this one. Sam, I've been hunting long enough to trust a feeling like this." Dean replied as Sam sighed "yeah, all right. So, what do you wanna do?" Sam asked him "I want you to go check out the heart attack guy. I'm gonna visit the reverend." Dean said "I'm going with Dean." I said as we all parted ways.

Arriving at the reverend's house we get out of the car and head up the walkway and inside his house "so, how are you feeling?" Sue Ann asked him "I feel great. Just trying to, you know, make sense of what happened." Dean said with a smile on his face as she smiled at him "a miracle is what happened. Well, miracles come so often around Roy." She said "when did they start? The miracles?" I asked her.

"Woke up one morning, stone blind. Doctors figured out I had cancer. Told me I had maybe a month. So, uh, we prayed for a miracle. I was weak, but I told Sue Ann, 'You just keep right on praying.' I went into a coma. Doctors said I wouldn't wake up, but I did. And the cancer was gone." Roy said as he took off his sunglasses as I look up noticing his eyes were white "If it wasn't for these eyes, no one would believe I'd ever had it." Roy replied "and suddenly, you could heal people?" Dean asked him.

"I discovered it afterward, yes. God's blessed me in many ways." Roy said as he put his sunglasses back on "and his flock just swelled overnight. And this is just the beginning." Sue Ann said with a smile on her face "can I ask you one last question?" Dean asked them "of course you can." Roy said as he nodded "why? Why me? out of all the sick people, why save me?" Dean asked him.

"Well, like I said before, the Lord guides me. I looked into your heart, and you just...stood out from all the rest." Roy explained "what did you see in his heart?" I asked him "a young man with an important purpose. A job to do. And it isn't finished." Roy said with a smile on his face "well, thank you, again." Dean said "oh, no. Don't thank me, it was gods work." Roy replied.

Once we're back at the hotel we sit down on the bed as we wait for Sam to get back as we look up seeing him walk through the door "what'd you find out?" Dean asked him "I'm sorry." Sam said softly as he looked up at us "sorry about what?" I asked him "Marshall Hall...died at 4:17." Sam said with sadness in his eyes "the exact time I was healed." Dean replied "yeah. So, I put together a list of everyone Roy's healed, six people over the past year, and I cross-checked them with the local obits. Every time someone was healed, someone else died. And each time, the victim died of the same symptom, LeGrange was healing at the time." Sam said.

"Someone's healed of cancer, someone else dies of cancer?" Dean asked him "somehow.....LeGrange.....he's trading a life for another." Sam said "wait, wait, wait. So, Marshall Hall died to save me?" I asked him with fear in my eyes "Ads...the guy probably would've died anyway. And someone else would've been healed." Sam said "you never should've brought me here." Dean replied "Dean, I was just trying to save your life." Sam said "but, Sam, some guy is dead now because of me." Dean retorted.


"I didn't know." He sighed "the thing I don't understand is, how is Roy doing it? How's he trading a life for a life?" Sam questioned "oh, he's not doing it..something else is doing it for him." Dean said "what do you mean?" Sam asked him "the old man I saw on stage...I didn't wanna believe it, but deep down, I knew..." Dean said.
