Wayward Daughters

Chapter Fifteen

They made it back to the bunker in record time, and pounded on the door as if Hell itself was standing behind them.

"Come on, open up!" Greer said sounding almost as frustrated as she sounded.

The door came creaking open with a shot gun pointed at them, but as soon as Ben saw who it was he lowered it. They hadn't been expecting them back so soon.

"It's just us..." Greer said as she pushed past him.

"Are you guys okay?" Ben asked, it was almost impossible to miss his concern as he followed them down the stairs. Neither one of them responded to him.

Clair stood up the moment she saw their faces round the corner. "What happened?" She asked. She looked a lot less threatening in pajama pants and a messy bun.

"Sam and Dean's souls are in that house!" Norah exclaimed.

"What?" Jody stood up and turned to face them. "How do you know that?"

"Because we saw them" Greer said in a low voice.

"That's impossible....they should have moved on..." Jody said.

"Well, unless the crazy gene runs in our blood too, they are there." Greer retorted

"Oh my god." Clair said as she sat down in her chair again, clearly shocked.

"Well, that's good news, if we can just get over there...." Ben said the optimism in his dark eyes drowning out any sadness they had left as a group.

"And what?" Clair asked, seemingly off in the distance. "Bring them back? Lead them to the light? Which heaven are we supposed to return them to?

"There's more." Greer said trying to catch her breath, leaning down on the table. "We were attacked."

"What?" the group seemed to resound.

"By demons." Norah finished off.

"How did they find you?"

"Apparently they had been following us..." Greer said. "Which means they probably know where this place is."

"That shouldn't be an issue." Ben said, he moved around to the other side of the table. "They may be outside the door....but they will never get in here...not that they'd want to. I mean, if they want to spend the night in torture chamber USA...by all means....Be my guest." He said with a little laugh.

Greer had to smile at him.... she kind of liked him. "Wait, what? You have a torture....?" She wasn't able to finish.

"All of that is beside the point." Norah interrupted. "They said the boss was on his way, and I think they may have recognized Greer."

Jody sat down at the table, and muttered a curse word under her breath followed by "Crowley."

Norah nodded.

"Did he see you girls?" Jody asked.

They shook their heads. "Sam and Dean... they uh... they took care of us, made sure we got out before he showed." Greer said.

"Of course they did." Clair said. It seemed her disdain for them grew with each passing day, especially for Greer.

"We have to do something!" Norah said. "We can't let Crowley have them..."

"Yeah, I'm with her... they saved our asses... I think it's time to return the favor." Greer agreed.

The room was solemn again, knowing that in the clutches of Crowley, Sam and Dean were in for a world of pain.

"The only thing we can do, is move forward with the plan." Ben said calmly, bringing everyone back.

"And what plan is that?" Greer asked.

"Well.... First things first.... We trap the devil. There's no easy way around it."

"Can't this wait, until we get them back?" Norah asked...tears starting to corner her eyes.

"Norah, the truth is, them being in that house probably saved their spirits for this long...whoever put them there, but there is no easy way out for them now.... even heaven will be its own personal hell for them." Jody said as calmly and comforting as she could. "The only thing we can do now, is fix the problem. Now, we have all the pieces, we just need to do it."

"Where?" Greer asked, silencing her own demons of doubt and fear. "Where do we trap this son of a bitch....a cave? Do we have armed guards 24/7? How does this work?

"Well..." Ben started. "About that torture chamber...."

The group looked at him. They all knew it was the craziest idea....but really...what else could they do?

"No." Clair started. "That is...a really....REALLY bad idea!" She said what everyone else was thinking but couldn't say.

"Alright, well....I'm open to other suggestions....if you have them." Ben said.

Everyone exchanged a look, knowing there was no other answer...even if it was the worst answer they could think of.
