The Winchesters were in the Impala driving to the resort before Sam, burning with curiosity, asked Dean, "So Maggie went with you to get coffee. How was that?" Sam was suppressing a smile.
Dean glanced sideways at Sam before answering dryly. "Uneventful. Not a single person was harmed on the coffee run."
"When this is over, do you think we are going to see her again?" Sam pressed.
"Who knows," Dean replied noncommittally. "Let's just get through today."
"There is a side road just past the resort. We can park there and walk in." Sam told Dean. Dean nodded.
"Dean look!" They were five miles from the resort. A clearing had opened in the middle of a forest for power lines. Two large black dogs were running full out after a person, gaining ground rapidly. They disappeared into the dense forest.
"Looks like the party started without us," Dean said dryly.
Dean drove past the resort. Sam pointed to a side road up ahead. Dean turned, he parked at the side of the road out of sight of the main road. The Winchesters climbed out and went to the back of the car. Dean opened the trunk, and Sam grabbed a bag and emptied it inside.
Together they filled the bag with stakes, machetes, a shotgun and extra rounds.
"Let's go."
"Liam gave me these." Sam removed two silver balls from his pocket and handed one to Dean.
"What is it?" Dean said examining the ball as he walked.
"Liam called them problem solvers. Slide that button, toss it and get the hell out. Problem solved. Those were the only instructions Liam gave me." Sam grinned
"Really? Huh." Dean inspected the ball with interest then pocketed it.
They had reached the driveway. "It's show time," Dean said
They walked up the drive and in the front door.
The reception area was large and gracious built in a rustic stone and wood theme. There was a sizeable staircase in the middle of the foyer.
"Well hello again." said a sexy voice when they walked in.
Dean and Sam walked to the front desk. Dean smiled charmingly. "Thought we'd get a room for the night. Take you up on your invitation for a drink."
The redhead eyed the Winchesters like a three-course meal. "I have just the room for you. You'll love it you might even decide to stay longer than a night." she looked at Dean with a knowing smile.
"Sam why don't you go get us a drink at the bar. I'll be right there after I check us in."
"Sure thing," Sam said as he wandered down a short hall, tucked behind the staircase was a doorway with a sign hanging outside that said Bar.
Sam had just come even with the door he counted six people inside the bar when there was a commotion from upstairs. There was a massive crash, and Sam looked out the window to see Liam and another man fall to the ground and roll a short way down the grassy slope.
Sam activated a problem solver and tossed it in the bar. He turned and ran back toward Dean.
The redhead behind the desk hissed dangerously and launched herself at Dean.
The bar room exploded in a fireball. The vampire was caught in the explosion and thrown backwards. Dean ducked in anticipation of the attack and missed being hit with debris. He opened the bag, grabbed a machete and stood up. The redhead vampire, at least parts of her, had been pinned to the wall behind her. "Well, that was easy," Dean said out loud. He looked around for Sam. Sam was face down on the floor. Dean ran over to Sam and turned him over.
