Chapter 115-Simon Said

September 19th - September 21st, 2006

Guthrie, Oklahoma
Heading back to the Roadhouse to see if Ash had found out any information about the demon and also because Sam had another vision of a man killing someone then turning the gun on himself "I don't know, man, why don't we just chill out, think about this." Dean said as Sam turned off the radio "what's there to think about?" Sam asked "I don't know if going to the Roadhouse is the smartest idea." Dean said "Dean, it's another premonition. I know it. This is gonna happen, and Ash can tell us where." Sam said "yeah, man, but-." Dean sighed.

"Plus, it could have some connection with the demon. My visions always do." Sam said "that's my point. There's gonna be hunters there. I don't know if-if-if going in and announcing that you're some supernatural freak with a a demonic connection is the best thing, okay?" Dean said "so, I'm a freak now?" Sam asked, hurt "you've always been a freak." Dean said as he smiled weakly and then faced the road again.

When we arrived at the Roadhouse, it was night, and the building was surrounded by cars. Once we walked in, we could see that it was filled with hunters, drinking, laughing, and cleaning their rifles as Dean was walking he nearly ran into Jo making her turned around, a huge smile spread across her face when she looked up and saw Dean "just can't stay away, huh?" Jo quipped "yeah, looks like. How you doin', Jo?" Dean asked her "where's Ash?" Sam asked hurriedly "in his backroom." Jo answered, surprised "great." Sam replied "and I'm fine.." Jo said.

Giving Jo a quick smile before following after Sam "sorry, he's-we're...kind of on a bit of a timetable." Dean said as I chased after Sam turning the corner to the back as Sam and I approached a closed door with a sign hanging on it that read, DR. BADASS IS: IN "Ash? Hey, Ash?" Sam asked as he knocked while Dean came up from behind us and knocked as well "hey, Dr. Badass?" Dean asked as the door unlatched and opened a crack to reveal a shirtless Ash making me quickly look down at the ground in embarrassment.

"Sam? Dean? Addison?" Ash asked "hey, Ash. Um. We need your help." Sam said "well. hell then. Guess I need my pants." He said shutting his door as Sam, Dean, and I went back out to the bar to wait for Ash. The boys sat down at the bar while I sat beside them looking up seeing Ash talking to my brother's "well, I got a match. It's the logo from the Blue Ridge bus lines in Guthrie, Oklahoma." Ash said as he typed on his laptop "okay. Do me a favor...check Guthrie for any demonic signs, or omens, or anything like that." Sam said "you think the demon's there?" Ash asked "yeah, maybe." Sam replied.

"Why would you think that?" Ash asked him "just check it, all right?" Dean said "no, sir, nothing. No demon." Ash said as he looked up at him "all right, try something else for me. Search Guthrie for a house fire. It would be 1983, fire's origin would be a baby's nursery, night of the kid's six-month birthday." Sam said "okay, now that is just weird, man. Why the hell would I be looking for that?" Ash asked him as Sam pulled a beer bottle out of his bag and set it next to Ash's laptop "cause there's a PBR in it for ya." Sam replied as Ash looked at the beer and cleared his throat.

Dean sang as we drove away from the Roadhouse. "And even as I wander, I'm keeping you in sight. You're a candle in the window on a cold dark winter night. And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might-." Dean said "you're kidding, right?" Sam asked "I heard the song somewhere. I can't get it out of my head. I don't know, man." Dean said as I laughed and rolled my eyes
Dean glanced quickly glanced at me in the rear-view mirror "what do you got, Sam?" Dean asked him while Sam flipped through the stack of papers on his lap "Andrew Gallagher. Born in '83, like me. Lost his mother in a nursery fire exactly six months later, also like me." Sam said "you think the demon killed his mom?" Dean asked "sure looks like it." Sam replied "how did you even know to look for this guy?" Dean asked him.

"Every premonition I've had, if they're not about the demon, they're about the other kids the demon visited. Like Max Miller, remember him?" Sam asked "yeah, but Max Miller was a pasty little psycho." Dean said "the point is he was killing people, and I was having the same type of visions about him. And now it could be happening all over again with this Gallagher guy." Sam said "how do we find him?" Dean asked him "don't know. No current address, no current employment. He still owes money on all his bills... phone, credit, utilities..." Sam said "collection agency flags?" Dean asked "none in the system." Sam replied.

"They just let him take a walk?" Dean asked "seems like it. There's a work address from his last W-2, about a year ago. Let's start there." Sam said.
