A Mess It Grows ~ Supernatural Fanfiction

The Van Allen's vs Cupid

Karoline followed Dean into the St. James Medical Center. She adjusted the collar of her blouse, looking around. They had driven up last night after catching wind of what the papers called a 'sexual suicide.' What that meant... well, they were about to find out. But Karoline was pretty sure the word 'cannibal' had come up in Sam and Alayna's briefing. She ran fingers through her blonde hair, letting out a soft breath.

"Yeah. Agents Marley and Ford," Dean was saying. Karoline flashed her ID, not giving them enough time for them to properly inspect it. "We're here to see, you know?"

"Ah yes. My name is Dr. Corman. Come right in." The man ushered them farther into the building and down several white hallways. Karoline faintly smiled. He looked like a nice man.

She followed them into the morgue. "I'm not really sure what to make of it myself," the doctor admitted. "It's... unusual, to say the least." With that, he pulled open one of the cold chamber compartments, sliding it out. He pulled back the white sheets, and both Karoline and Dean visibly recoiled. The man's body was mutilated. Chunks of flesh were missing from several parts of the body, and blood stains around the mouth the mouth, chunks of flesh still caught in their lips.

Dr. Corman opened a second cold chamber, pulling back the sheet. It was a young woman with the same type of wounds, ranging down to the stomach. "Are those bite marks?" Karoline looked over at the doctor, who shared their disgust.

"Uh, yeah."

"So let me get this straight. They ate each other. Seriously?" Dean seemed just as disturbed.

"Yes. That's what it looks like." The doctor moved over to the first body. "The autopsy showed that their stomachs were completely filled with flesh. It's like they literally ate until they were stuffed."

"That's, that's..." Dean started,

"Yeah," Dr. Corman agreed.

"What were you thinking caused it?" Karoline asked.

"Drugs, maybe."

"Like PCP? Kind of like Big Lurch."

The coroner just stared at Karoline in confusion, so Dean broke in. "Okay. Well, thank you." Dean nodded in farewell. "Uh, if we have anymore questions, we'll call."

"Okay." The doctor began putting the bodies away, and Dean and Karoline left.

"That was disgusting." Karoline said when they finally left. "Why didn't I go with Sam and Alayna again?"

Dean snorted in agreement. Then he looked down at the blonde. "Big Lurch?"

The girl shrugged, "it makes sense."  Dean didn't protest. "Hey, do you think you can stop and get me a pack of cigarette's on the way back?"

Dean stopped at driver's side of the car, looking over at her with startled eyes, "I haven't seen you touch those things in... I don't know how long."

"Yeah, well, I'm falling off the wagon," Karoline snapped, rolling her eyes at the look he gave her before ducking into the car. Dean frowned, what just happened?

He drove her to go get her pack of cigarettes and then back to the motel they had checked into last night, and Karoline immediately changed back into jeans and a t-shirt. She exited the bathroom, pulling on a large grey sweatshirt. "Ugh finally," She grabbed the 7/11 bag off the table and pulled out her pack of special blend Marlboro's. She pushed open the sliding window and took a seat on the ledge as she shook the package, smacking it repeatedly against the palm of her hand. Feeling eyes on her, she turned slightly to see Dean watching her. "What?"

Dean shrugged, "nothing."

At that moment, the door opened, and Sam and Alayna walked through. Sam dropped two fast food bags on the table as Alayna slipped off her blazer, leaving her in a light blue blouse and a pair of dark skinny jeans.
