Being Alone (D. Winchester)

2.87 "You Don't Want To Kill Your Brother"

Next day. At the sheriff station.

We walked around the crime scene.

Dean" Ten bones says Deputy Doug had an axe to grind with his boss. "

Garth "How can you be so sure? "

Dean pointed to green goo on the Sheriff's tape dispenser.

Garth "Ah, what the hell? "

Dean " Maybe we torched the wrong redneck. "

Sam " Or maybe not. Maybe an object was removed from the grave, something the spectre's attaching itself to."

Me "Like dad's flask? "

Garth "Um, I don't know, guys. You saw what I saw. Those kids didn't take anything. "

Sam " Or they did."

Dean " And this spectre hitched a ride with it. "

Sam "And whoever has the object gets possessed. "

Garth nodded "Okay. So, who's got the object, and, more importantly, who do they got a grudge against?

We were in the holding cell with Deputy Wallace. The Deputy was pretty beaten up. I mean, he shot his boss with a shotgun into the stomach.

Sam"All right. We need you to focus, Deputy. Other lives depend on it. Tell me what happened after you shot the Sheriff. "

Deputy "I was on the ground. I think Karl tackled me, and I asked him what happened."

Dean" And? "

Deputy "He didn't answer me. He just took my gun and walked away. "

Dean"Did he say where he was going? "

Deputy "I guess... I must have hurt him, too. He said he was going to the hospital."

We walked out of the cell.

Dean "The threw of you find out what you can about the unknown soldier. I got the hospital. "

Dean walked away.

At the library.

Sam, Garth and i got out of the car.

Garth "Hey, uh, Elena, Sam. If you ever need to talk, I just want to let you know that I'm here. About anything – you know, life, uh, Dean, you, or you. "

Me "I'm fine"

Sam"I'm okay. Thanks. "

Garth "I mean, it just seems like you and you and Dean are talking but nobody's listening to each other. I had this cousin once – well, he's gone now – but his name was Frank. Frank and I used to build... "

We walked into the library. I looked around and saw that Sam stopped at the door.

Garth looked at him "Hey, you comin'?"

A librarian was leading us through the library" You do know there is a good reason he's called the unknown soldier, right? "

Sam nodded "Right. Uh, we were just hoping maybe a theory or two had been a floated around over the years – something local, maybe?"

Librarian "There is one."

She took a book from the shelf and started to flip over pages"Corporal Collins of the Union shot and killed his brother, Vance, who fought for the Confederacy. Local boys. "
