A familar face

I'm slightly a taken back by Deans sudden eagerness to get back home, but I try not to question it, I don't want him to change his mind. I follow him back through the damp and dark alleyway. Without much warning, it starts to rain, and quite heavy too. I look down at the old slippers I'm wearing to see just how badly I've soaked them. Yep. They pretty drenched. I wasn't really paying attention to the alleyways state on the walk up, but now I can see that it kinda looks like the perfect place to be murdered. Wonderful.

Dean doesn't seem phased by the heavy rain, he hasn't even picked up his pace. But for me whenever it rains, it's like my eyes just automatically try and defend themselves by constantly squinting.

"Hey kid how'd you even find me?" Dean says, swinging him self around to look back at me.

"Oh well, I uh- we've just been looking everywhere, so I suppose I'm the luck winner." I snicker a little, trying to ease any tension from our conversation.

"Hmph." He turns back around, waving his arms out to gain balance. "I guess we should call off the search party."

"Uh." I yell out to him, over the heavy downfall. "I don't think anyone brought a phone."

"Well," Dean shouts back at me, "Guess we'll just have to find them the old fashion way." He turns to me and smirks. I lowkey hate when adults say things like that, but it's easier to smile and nod than to tell them I'm aware there's more to life than my phone.

"Hey Dean?" I yell out to him, hoping he can hear me, "What do you want us to tell Sam and Castiel when we get back?" He doesn't reply. "Dean?" I repeat. He stops in his tracks, lifting one hand in the air to signal me to stop. I scrunch my nose in confusion. Before I can ask why, he swings around and grabs me by the arm, urgently.

"Did you see that?" He whispers to me.

"See wha-" I can hardly finish my question before Dean is thrown violently through the air and over to the brink wall behind us. He hits it and bounces to the ground, causing a lot of water to come splashing up. I become extremely alert on my feet. I spin around, whilst slowly making my way back to Dean.

"You ok?" I ask, pulling him off the ground rather easily. He puts his hand up to the back of his head and winces.

"Yeah." He growls. "lucky me cause just I doubled my double vision." I swing his arm around my shoulders, guiding him out of the alleyway and back to the main road. "Hang on kid." He flings his arm away from me, and stops to lean against the shopfront window. "I think it's the same ghost." He sounds incredibly out of breathe. "We gotta get you out of here ok, don't worry about me. Just run ok?" I stand there, not knowing how to react to that. "Just GO." He shouts, waving his arms around. But instead, I don't move.

"Don't worry sir, I'm not gonna leave you. Specially not in this state." I walk up to the window Deans at, it has 5 vertical bars attached. I rip one off, really hoping it's made of iron. "OK GHOST!" I shout. "COME OUT COME OUT WHEREVER YOU ARE!"

"Peter are you insane?!" Dean says, somewhere between a whisper and shout.

"Don't worry." I say jumping on the spot, whilst stretching every joint in my body to relax it. "I got this." I start running back down the alleyway, both praying to and praying not to see the ghost.

"Peter." I hear a distance surrounding voice. I can't quite locate it but I turn around.
I've come face to face with the ghost. I'm suddenly paralysed with shock. I drop the rod, right into a puddle below me, but I don't squint my eyes, for what I'm seeing now has them pealed right open.

"Uncle Ben?"...
