Dakota Elizabeth Winchester

Chapter 32: Hell House Part 2

Twenty minutes later they arrived at Mordechai's house and found the police already there with crime scene tape set up. Several people were standing around the scene watching the coroner carry a body out.

"What happened?" Dakota asked a man standing around the scene.

"I heard a couple of cops say that poor girl hung herself in that house." The man said.

"Suicide?" Sam asked.

"Yeah. She was a straight A student with a full ride to UT, too. It just don't make sense." The man said before he turned back to watch the police activity.

"What do you guys think?" Sam whispered.

"I have no idea." Dakota said. She looked over at Dean who had taken took a few steps towards the house. I'm thinking maybe we missed something.

They agreed to come back later that night, but the cops were still there when they arrived. Hiding behind some of the dead, brown bushes across from the house, Dakota could see flashlights being pointed around and heard dead grass crunching beneath shoes.

"I guess the cops don't want any more kids screwing around in there." Sam said from his spot on Dakota's left.

"Well too bad." Dakota said.

"Yeah, we still gotta get in there." Deans said.

A twig snapped behind them and they heard to hushed voices arguing back and forth about not making noise. Dakota sat up a bit more, risking getting seen by the cops to see if she could tell who was disturbing their hiding place.

She groaned when she saw Ed and Harry with their night vision goggles and cameras trying to get close to the house.

"Don't tell me. It's our friends from Hellhoundliar.com, right?" Dean asked sarcastically.

"This idiots are going to ruin everything." Sam said.

Dakota smiled widely, "I have an idea." She stood up, but stayed slightly bent over to stay out of sight and waited for Ed and Harry to make it into the clearing where the cops would be able to stop them. She cupped her hands of her mouth and said in a deep voice, "Who ya gonna call?"

She watched as the cops turned and saw Ed and Harry and began chasing them.

Sam and Dean stood up, "Okay, we're clear, but we have to move fast." Dakota said. She took a step, but something snagged her foot and fell flat on her face. Sam and Dean broke out in laughter and Dakota looked down at her shoes to see one of her brothers had tied the laces of her Converse together with military leveling knots while she wasn't paying attention.

"You jackasses!" She hissed. She kicked off her shoes and took off towards the house. Once they made it inside, she began fiddling with the laces while the boys looked around.

"Man, I have seen this symbol before. It's killing me!" Dean said.

"Come on. We don't have a lot of time." Sam said. Suddenly he pressed a shotgun into Dakota's hands, "Forget about the stupid shoes, we have work to do!" He said. So Dakota ended up walking through a haunted house carrying a beat up pair of black Converse and a shotgun while wearing black and white striped socks with holes in the heels.

They went down the stairs to the basement where they heard that the latest victim had been murdered. Inside there were shelves lined with jar filled with unknown substances. Dakota did a quick circle around the room before turning back to see Dean shining his light through one of the jars.

"Hey, Sam. I dare you to take a swig of this." Dean said. Dakota raised an eyebrow at him and lowered her shotgun, realizing that the only threat was her oldest brother.
