Supernatural Series Rewrite- Season 10

Dark Dynasty: Final Part

Justin told you he got one of the Styne's numbers and handed it over to you immediately. He went back to looking for your kids while you set up a meeting with one of them. You're sitting inside a restaurant in the back waiting for one of them to arrive. A single man walks in and sits directly across from you in the booth.

"Scarlet Witch."

"Styne. I'm assuming you're not here alone?"

"Call me Eldon, and you'd be right to assume. Are you here alone?"

"I am. Don't try anything. You know I'd kill you in a second if you do."

"I'm not here to do anything. I'm here to talk."

"So talk." You shrug out of your jacket and Eldon notices the Mark on your collarbone. He chuckles at the irony of the situation. "What?"

"I see you have the Mark of Cain. My sympathies. I get now why you want the book. You want to remove it."

"Quite the opposite. The only reason I want the book is so I can tap into its power. The problem we have--yes, I used we--is that the Winchesters are hell-bent on getting this thing off me. They don't want you to have the book because it's their mission in life to put guys like you out of business."

"Let me tell you something about my family's business. My family is spread out all over the world, and that power that you mentioned doesn't come from the book. It comes from intelligence and will. The book facilitates. Stock market dive, recession, 9/11... Does any of them ring a bell?"

"Okay, I'll bite. Why?"

"Well, you got to be in it to win it. You see, chaos breeds fear. Fear breeds panic, and panic breeds desperation, and there's always profit to be made from desperation. Since we've been in the fix-it business for a thousand years, business has never been better. Now, for the last eighty years, we haven't had the book. With the book, we're unstoppable."

"I like what I'm hearing so far. I'm a bit of a junkie when it comes to chaos and fear. So, answer me this. Why did you take that poor girl's eyes when you killed her? Yes, I make it a habit to know everyone's business, especially when people like to keep things from me."

"Yes, that whole situation was unfortunate. We normally never leave a body when we harvest."

"Excuse me?"

"It's a family specialty. Bioengineering. Surgical enhancement. I'm not talking about nose jobs. See?" He leans back and lifts his shirt to show off his long vertical nasty scar. " I have two hearts in here and a bunch of extra muscle, especially in the legs. Every man in the family has a little something. Pretty much what you'd expect, though, given the family tree."

"The Stynes?"

"The real family tree. The name was altered out of necessity. You have chanced upon a lineage with a long and proud tradition and some unwanted notoriety. One of Europe's oldest families. The House of Frankenstein."

"You're saying Frankenstein is real and not just a bedtime story?"

"Yes. Unluckily for us, we had a family friend named Mary Shelly who spent a few nights in Castle Frankenstein, stumbled upon our secrets, and forced us to change our name and go underground."

"Why didn't Shelley go public?"

"She did. She wrote a book. It doesn't get more public than that. Doesn't matter because no one believed it just like no one is going to believe you."

"That's funny you think I actually care enough to spread your family secret around town."

"Which brings us to why I agreed to meet you here."
