"Excuse me?" Ballard asked

"Claire's not killing anyone. She's trying to warn them. You see, sometimes spirits, they don't want vengeance, they want justice. Which is why she led us here in the first place. She wants us to know who her killer is." I looked at her wearily "Detective, how much do you know about your partner?"

"Oh my god,"

"What?"

"About a year ago, some heroin went missing from lockup. Obviously, it was a cop. We never found out who did it. But whoever did it would need someone to fence their product,"

"Someone like a heroin dealer." I looked at Claire's body "Somebody like Claire," I looked up at Ballard "You have to get me to Sam and Dean...now!"

Detective Ballard was on her cell as we drove down the highway, I wasn't paying attention to her conversation as I was trying to look for Sam and Dean "All right. Thanks,"

"What is it?" I demanded

"Pete just left the precinct. With Sam and Dean,"

"What?!" the radio fizzled out before going normal

"He said the prisoners had to be transferred, and he just took them. Dispatch has been calling but he won't answer the radio,"

I closed my eyes

"Selina?"

"I'll try my best to keep myself slow for you," I told her as I got out of the car

"Selina...what..."

I transformed into a wolf and began running.

Dean and Sam noticed the armored van pulling off the road and stopping "Pee break? So soon? You might want to get your prostate checked,"

"Dean..." Sam warned as he saw Sheridan circle to the back

"Son of a bitch,"

Sheridan opened the van

"Hey, we're cool in the van, you go do what you gotta do,"

Sheridan hauled the two and threw them on the ground. "You're a cocky son of a bitch. Do you think those people in St. Louis are gonna buy that crap you're peddling? Here's the thing. You're not gonna make it to St. Louis. You're gonna die trying to escape," He pulled out his gun and pointed it at Dean's head

"Wait!" Sam shouted "Wait. Let's, let's talk about this. I mean, you don't want to do something that you're gonna regret later."

Sheridan cocked the gun

"or maybe you do,"

"Pete!" Detective Ballard shouted "Put the gun down,"

"Diana? How'd you find me?" Pete questioned

"I know about Claire,"

"I don't know what you're talking about,"

"Put the gun down!"

"Oh, I don't think so. You're fast. I'm pretty sure I'm faster,"

"Why are you doing this?"

"I didn't do anything, Diana,"

"It's a little late for that,"

"It wasn't my fault. Claire was trying to turn me in, I had no choice,"

"And Tony? Karen?"

"Same thing! Tony scrubbed the money, he got skittish, and then he wanted to come clean. I'm sure he told Karen everything,"

Dean glanced at Sam

"It was a mess; I had to clean it up," Sheridan told her "I just panicked,"

"How many more people are gonna die over this, Pete?" Diana questioned

"There's a way out. This Dean and Sam are a friggin' gift. We could pin the whole thing on them. Right? No trial, nothing. Just, just two more dead scumbags,"

"Hey!" Sam and Dean shouted

Sheridan raised his gun causing the two to back off "No one will question it. Diana, please. I still love you."

Diana lowered her gun

"Thank you. Thank you," When he turned away she fired hitting him in the stomach.

"Then why don't you buy me another necklace, you ass?"

Sheridan tackled Diana's legs, knocking her down, losing her gun.

Selina came out of nowhere and jumped for the gun but Sheridan got to it first.

"Selina!" the boys shouted as Sheridan pointed the gun at her. But Selina didn't show fear...

"I have a friend who's been wanting to see you..." Selina looked passed Sheridan and saw Claire's ghost, a gunshot went off and Sheridan went down.

I was standing with Sam and Dean as Detective Ballard approached us

"You doin' all right?" Sam asked Ballard

"Not really. The death omen Claire. What happens to her now?" Ballard wondered

I shrugged "Should be over. She should be at rest,"

"So, uh. What now, officer?" Dean asked her

"Pete did confess to me. He screwed up both your cases royally. I'd say that there's a good chance that we could get your cases dismissed,"

"You'd take care of that for us?"

"I hope so. But the St. Louis murder charges? That's another story. I can't help you. Unless...I just happened to turn my back, and you walked away. I could just tell them that the suspects escaped,"

"Wait, are you sure?" Sam asked

I elbowed Sam "Yeah, she's sure, Sam,"

"No, it's just, I mean, you could lose your job over something like that,"

"Look, I just want you guys out there doing what you do best. Trust me, I'll sleep better at night." She turned to leave "Listen, you need to watch your back. They're gonna be looking for both of you right now. Get out of here. I gotta radio this in,"

"Hey, uh, you wouldn't happen to know where my car is, by chance?" Dean questioned

"It's at the impound yard down on Robertson." She noticed Dean's calculating look "Don't...even think about it,"

"It's okay, it's all right, don't worry. We will, uh, we'll just improvise. I mean, we're pretty good at that," Sam stated

"Yeah. I've noticed," we began to walk off down the road

"Nice lady," I said

"Yeah, for a cop. Did she look familiar to you?"

I shook my head and looked to Sam "No, why?"

"I don't know. Anyway, are you hungry?"

"No,"

"For some reason, I could really go for some pea soup,"

I looked to Sam "Is that code for something?"

Sam laughed and stopped in front of me "Come on,"

I smiled jumping onto his back and hit him as he huffed

"I'm kidding," Sam laughed

"Hey Dean," I called out

"Yeah," Dean turned around

"I'm taller than you now,"

Dean laughed "In your dreams short stack,"
