Deans POV


I'm driving down the road when my cell phone rings. "Yeah?" I answer once I pick it up. "There's a cop car outside." Ana tells me on the other end. "You think it's for us?" I ask her. "Don't know." She says a bit nervously.

"I don't see how. I mean, we ditched the plates, the credit cards." I tell as I hear her sigh. "They're leaving. False alarm." Ana says relieved. "Well, see. Nothing to worry about, baby." I tell her.

"Yeah, being fugitives? Frigging dance party." Ana says sarcastically and I chuckle a bit. "So you got anything yet?" She asks me. "Are you kidding me? How could I? You and Sam got me sifting through like 50 square miles of real estate here." I say. "Well, that's where all the victims disappeared." She replies.

"Yeah well, I got diddly-squat. What about you guys?" I ask them. "Just one thing. We're pretty sure of it now...we're hunting a Djinn." She says. "A freaking genie?" I ask shocked. "Yep." Ana replies.

"What? You guys think these suckers can really grant wishes?" I ask. "I don't know. I guess they're powerful enough. But not exactly like Barbara Eden in harem pants. I mean, Djinn have been feeding off people for centuries. They're all over the Koran." She explains. "My god. Barbara Eden was hot, wasn't she? Way hotter than Bewitched chick." I say exasperated.

"You remember you're talking to your girlfriend right?" She asks and my eyes widen. "Sorry baby. You know your hotter and sexier than any of them." I tell her. "Hm-mmm." She says unamused and I clear my throat. "So, uh, where do the Djinns lair up?" I ask her. "Ruins usually. Uh, bigger the better - more places to hide." She replies. "You know, I think I saw a place a couple miles back. I'm gonna go check it out." I tell her. "Wait - no, no, no, no. Come pick us up first." Ana says. "Nah, I'm sure it's nothing. I just wanna take a look around." I tell her before I hang up.

I pull the Impala to a stop in front of an old factory. I climb out of the car before walking into the factory, with a flashlight, swinging open a squeaky door. I walk through what appears to be an abandoned office, with a typewriter, file cabinet, etc. There's a dripping water sound, but otherwise it appears empty.

I look back and forth in it a few times and start walking back in the same direction I came from but this time in the hall. I don't see anything so I walk on. Suddenly, something attacks me, pinning me against the window wall. I drop the flashlight and the Djinn slams my right hand the wall, forcing me to drop my knife.

The Djinn opens his left hand, which begins to glow blue, and the same time it's eyes begin glowing. The Djinn puts it glowing hand on my forehead and my eyes start to roll back.

I wake up, bare chested, and wearing an necklace that's not my amulet. I look around seeing the TV on, playing some old movie. I look to my left seeing a woman next to me, but she has her back to me. I lean over to look at her and see it's not Ana, making me panic.

I get up quickly, then look around for a moment before I get dressed and begin to walk around the apartment.

I grab my cell phone and call Sam. "Dean?" He answers. "Sam?" I say worried. "What's going on?" He asks. "I don't know. I don't know where I am." I say frantically.

"What? What happened?" He asks, concerned. "Well, the uh, the Djinn. It attacked me." I tell him. "The gin? You're...drinking gin?" Sam asks confused. "No, asshat. The Djinn. The...scary creature. Remember? It put its hand on me and then I woke up...next to a woman...where's Ana?" I ask.
