042. worried kids

It's been a few days and Jody hasn't heard from any of the Winchesters. She's tried to call them countless times, never getting an answer back. The three Winchester kids have started to pick up on her worry even though she insists everything's fine.

"Hey. Sam, could you call me back?" Jody asks as there's a knock on her door. "I just need to know that you're okay." She hangs up, going to the door and answering it to find Patience.

Jody leads the teenage girl into the living room where the kids now are.

"Oh, hey, kiddos." Jody gives them a small smile. "Um, kids, this is Patience." She informs and Patience waves. "Patience, this is Carly, Wyatt, and Serena. They're Sam and Miranda Winchester's kids."

"Hi." Patience greets.

"Um, why don't you guys go play in the room?" Jody suggests.

"But we just came out here." Serena pouts.

"Go to your room." Jody orders.

The kids groan, but do as she says.

"Tried Donna, Walt. Nobody's heard anything." Alex tells Jody.

They hear the door open, all turning to look in the direction, watching Claire walk in.

"Surprise. Hi, Jody. Alex. You miss me?" Claire asks Alex.

"Not really." Alex shrugs before smiling a little.

Jody motions to the injury on Claire's lower lip.

"Oh, it's just a werewolf. No big deal." Claire says and Jody hugs her. "Whoa." Claire says after a few moments. "When did we become huggers?"

"I'm just glad you made it home safe." Jody tells her. "There's somebody I want you to meet." She tells Claire as Patience walks in. "This is, uh, this is Patience."

"Hi." Patience greets.

"Hi." Claire says.

"Patience drove up from Atlanta. She's been staying with us for a few days." Jody informs.

"Are you a hunter?" Claire asks.

"Psychic." Patience corrects.

"Cool. You're wearing my sweatshirt." Claire points out.

"Uh, Jody..." Patience tries to explain.

"Is she sleeping in my room too?" Claire asks Jody.

"Actually, the guest room is storage now. So..." Jody says.

"It's fine. I'm the one who left." Claire says. "So, Sam, Dean, and Miranda. What do we know?"

"Hey, Jody, thanks for your help earlier. So listen, we're looking for someone, Kaia Nieves. She might be the key to saving mom. So if you hear anything..." Sam's voicemail says.

"Gotta go, call you later." Dean says before the voicemail ends.

"Ow." Claire mutters as Alex cleans her cut.

"Baby." Alex scoffs as Claire swats her hand away.

"That was three days ago, we haven't heard anything since." Jody says.

"What about the girl? Kaia?" Claire asks.

Carly hides in the kitchen, leaning against the wall, and listening.

"Yeah, I ran her name through the system. She was picked up for possession in Minnesota and then she escaped from court ordered drug rehab three days ago. Warrant out for arrest." Jody says.
