Chapter 11 Scarecrow

The three of them are in the motel. Sam, Dean and Hermione are sleeping. Dean's phone rings but he does not wake up.

'Dean,' Hermione tries. But Dean still doesn't wake up. 'Sam,' Sam also doesn't wake up. Hermione answers the phone. 'Hello?'

'Sam, Dean, is that one of you?' Hermione doesn't know what to say.

'No, I'm Hermione Granger,' It's quiet on the other side of the phone.

'Give me one of my sons please,' Hermione moves towards Sam and slaps him. Sam's eyes open in shock he looks at Hermione who passes him the phone.

'Hello?'

'Sam, is that you?' Sam sits up.

'Dad? Are you hurt?'

'I'm fine,'

'We've been looking for you everywhere. We didn't know you were, if you were okay,'

'Sammy, I'm all right. What about you and Dean?' Dean is waking up.

'We're fine. Dad where are you?' Dean sits up in bed.

'Sorry, kiddo, I can't tell you that?'

'What? Why not?'

'Is that Dad?' Dean asks.

'Look, I know this is hard for you to understand. You're just gonna have to trust me on this,'

'You're after it, aren't you? The thing that killed Mom,'

'Yeah. It's a demon, Sam,'

'A demon? You know for sure?'

'A demon? What's he saying?' Dean asks.

'I do. Listen, Sammy, I, uh...I also know what happened to your friend. I'm sorry. I would've done anything to protect you from that,'

'Dad, she's not dead. You know where it is?'

'Yeah, I think I'm finally closing in on it,'

'Let us help,'

'You can't. You can't be any part of it,'

'Why not?'

'Give me the phone,' Dean commands but Sam doesn't listen.

'Listen, Sammy, that's why I'm calling. You and your brother, you got to stop looking for me. Alright, now, I need you to write down these names,'

'Names? What names, Dad—talk to me, tell me what's going on,'

'Look, we don't have time for this. This is bigger than you think, they're everywhere. Even us talking right now, it's not safe,'

'No. Alright? No way,'

'Give me the phone,' Dean tells Sam again.

'I have given you an order. Now, you stop following me, and you do your job. You understand me? Now, take down these names,' Dean grabs the phone from Sam.

'Dad, it's me. Where are you?' Dean listens. 'Yes, sir.' Dean grabs a pen and paper. 'Uh, yeah, I got a pen. What are their names?'

The three of them are in the impala. Sam is driving.

'Alright, so, the names Dad gave us, they're all couples?' Sam asks.

'Three different couples. All went missing,'

'And they're all from different towns? Different states?'

'That's right. You got Washington, New York, Colorado. Each couple took a road trip cross-country. None of them arrived at their destination, and none of them were ever heard from again,'
