Supernatural: Anastasia Steele

Chapter 58. Croatoan

Anas Vision.

Dean walks down a dim hallway, grimly, turns towards a door and pulls out a gun. He slides out the clip, taps it on the gun, then replaces it. Inside the room, there is a Crater Lake poster on the wall. Below it is a young blonde man, Duane, tied to a chair.

Nearby are a young woman, Pam, and her twin brother, Pete, a middle aged woman, Dr Lee, and a tough looking black man, Mark, all standing around, looking around nervously. Duane looks up as Dean opens the door and enters, raising the gun.

"No, no, no, no, no, you're not gonna...no, I swear! It's not in me!" Duane stammers frantically. "Oh god." Pam says fearfully. "We're all gonna die." Pete says panicked. "Maybe he's telling the truth." Mark suggests as Dean advances towards Duane, coming his gun.

"He's not him, not anymore." Dean says. "No, stop it! Stop it! Ask her, ask the doctor! It's not in me!" Duane pleads frantically. "I just...I can't tell." Dr Lee says unsure. "No, please don't. Don't. I swear, I..." Duane pleads to Dean.

"I got no choice." Dean says and Duane starts sobbing. "I swear, it's not in me, it's not in me. Don't, don't. Please!" Duane pleads until Dean fires.

Deans POV

I enter the room carrying a six pack of beer as I hear something crash and I look up seeing Ana on the floor, groaning in pain, the bedside lamp on the floor next to her. Sam is burying his head into the pillows letting out a pained groan.

Ana pants as she starts to sit up and I rush over to her. "Guys?" I ask concerned. "No..." Sam whispers as Ana gives me a fearful look.

I drive as Sam navigates with a GPS device, which speaks directions. "Continue on O-R Two-Two-Four West." The GPS says. "There are only two towns in the US named Rivergrove." Sam says.

"How come you guys are so sure it's the one in Oregon?" I ask them. "There was a poster. Crater Lake." Ana says tiredly and Sam nods. "She's right." He says. "Okay, what else?"  I ask. "I saw a dark room, some people, and a guy tied to a chair." Sam says. "Yeah, me too." Ana says. "And I ventilated him?" I ask. "Yeah, you thought there was something inside him." Ana answers.

"What, a demon? Was he possessed?" I ask them. "I don't know." They reply in unison. "Well, all your weirdo visions are always tied to the yellow eyed demon somehow...so was there any black smoke? Did we try to exorcise it?" I ask. "No." Ana replies. "Nothing, you just plugged him, that's it." Sam says.

"Well, I'm sure I had a good reason." I say. "I sure hope so." Sam mutters. "What does that mean?" I ask a I look at him but he doesn't reply. "I mean, I'm not gonna waste an innocent man." I say and Sam raises his eyebrow at me. "I wouldn't!" I exclaim. "Never said you would!" Sam says. "Fine!" I yell. "Fine!" Sam repeats as Ana sighs.

"Look, we don't know what it is. But whatever it is, that guy in the chair is a part of it. So let's find him and see what's what." Ana says as she looks between us. "Fine." I growl. "Fine." Sam says as Ana shakes her head. "You guys can be such children sometimes." She grumbles as she leans back.

We pull into the town, passing a large billboard advertising Crater Lake. We pull up in front of a wooden shop; out front a black man is cleaning a rifle, wearing a multi pocket brown vest.

The three of us get out and approach him. "Morning." I greet. "Good morning. Can I help you?" The man asks. "Yeah." I say as I pull out a badge. "Uh, Billy Gibbons, Frank beard, Ashley Ethridge. U.S Marshall's." I say and the man looks at us confused.
