I Promise You

Chapter 20

Elena's POV:

It's been weeks since we have accidently opened the gates of hell and Sam and Dean have been hunting non-stop. Yeah, they let me help every now and then, but when it comes to certain things, they just won't let me help. Since then, we have figured out that we have let out the seven deadly sins, among other horrible things. I mean seriously, the seven deadly sins! I cant even fathom that. Right now, Sam has tracked a streak of killings in Cicero, Indiana. So we are on our way right now.

"So what type of killings are happening exactly?" I asked Sam, who is more of the researcher of the family.

"Honestly, I see no pattern whatsoever. But it's worth a shot. And your boyfriend over here seems to really keen on taking this case." See that's what's confusing me. Dean has been basically going on a joy ride since Sam found out he sold his soul. He's been drinking, staying out all night, and in all honestly Sam and I are sick of it.

"Hey! It seems like a case. I mean a person doesn't just land on his own power saw."

"Yeah, ok. Whatever you say." We have just stopped trying to figure out his antics and have decided to just let him do his own thing. We arrive in Cicero late that night and decide to just immediately crash in a room. The next morning while Dean is still passed out, Sam and I decide to go check out the town and see if there is any good diner around here.

"So we have to figure out how to get Dean out of this demon deal." Sam started explaining to me how he kept talking to Bobby and seeing if he could translate any of some weird demon language crap.

"We can't Sam. You know that. We try to worm our way out of this deal and you die. Period."

"But I'm supposed to be dead anyways Elena! Don't you want Dean to live?"

"Of course I do Sam. But that doesn't mean I want you to die either. There has to be some other way."

"And that's what I'm trying to figure out Elena. But right now that's our only choice." Before I could respond, Dean starts to walk in and we basically have to shut up.

"What up guys. Find anything useful yet?" Dean saunters up and decides to steal some of my food.

"What up Dean. Decide to do anything useful yet?" I say, messing around with him.

"Haha, very funny Lena" he says, but he smiles at me.

"Hey, so I am going to go investigate some of the things happening here so I'll be back later ok? Don't wait up." Before either of us object, he walks out of the diner and is gone.

"Well ok then. That was weird." Sam and I decide to go back to the motel and just look into all of this random crap. Before we can even leave the booth, some blonde chick slides into the booth next to me and across from Sam.

"Hi there Sam." Sam's face looks like he has just seen a ghost.

"You. You have been following me. Why?" I am so confused.

"Wait, is this the girl who basically saved your ass?" He doesn't answer me but by the way he just looks at me tells me that it is.

"Oh I know some things that you may or may not want to know. Like about your mother's friends."

"How do you know about that?"

"I'm a good hunter. Just look into her friends. When you decide I am right, just call me." With that she writes a number on Sam's hand and walks out.

"Well ok then." When Dean calls, we decide to meet him to talk about the case. He didn't want us to but we wanted to find out what this guy was up to. We pull up behind his Impala and see it in front of a house that looks like it is having a party. We knew Dean liked cake, but really, crashing a kid's birthday party? Was that really necessary? We hop out of the car and walk up to the door. A beautiful brunette woman answers it and I just get this feeling in the pit of my stomach.
