A few days later, Jack and I were scrounging up what was left in the fridge to make food. My phone started ringing and it was an unknown number.

"You got this?" I asked Jack.

"Yeah," He said, nodding. I gave him a thumbs up and went out of the room, answering the phone.

"Who is this?" I asked.

"Ash," He said.

"Oh," I nodded, "Why the encrypted number?"

"We can't be too safe now a days seeing how you were almost caught by the FBI a month ago."

I continued nodding, then sat down, "What's up?"

"I have a case for you guys. I'm sending the files through now."

"Alright, thanks." I got my computer, "How are you settling in?"

He sighed, "I'm settled, just trying to get back in the swing of things."

I nodded, "We'll try and drop by as soon as possible, okay? Hold in there."

"Alright, boss."

I continued nodding, then hung up before starting to go through the files. Something caught my eye when there was a red notification for Vincent's emails. I went in and read through the invitation to the funeral, then breathed heavily and took down the information before leaving to find Vincent.

I went to Jack's room and saw him and Vincent playing video games. I grabbed Vincent by the back of his shirt and he choked slightly, "Come on," I pulled him out of the room and started going down the hall with him.

"You can't make me." He told me.

"You're going, goddamn it." I kept dragging him along with me down the hall.

"No! I'm not going." He continued fighting me.

"You have to."

"No I don't."

"Too bad! I'm making you." I flashed us into a hotel room in Germany and he looked around.

I took a suit bag off the bed and shoved it at him. He looked at it, then to me.

"Really?" He asked.

"Yes, Vincent, do this one thing, just once in your life, just do this one thing for your father." I told him, "He'd want you to be there."

He breathed out his nose, "Fine."

Jack...

Cas had just kind of dragged Vincent out of the room, so I got up to look. The hall was clear. I started wondering the rooms to search, and found Guy sitting in his room, listening to music and drawing.

"Hey," I spoke up.

He looked up to me, then took out his headphones.

"Hi," He smiled at me, "What's up?"

"Do you know where Cas and Vincent went?" I asked.

He shook his head, "No,"

I nodded, "Okay, thank you." I pat the doorframe slightly before starting to leave.

"Hey, Jack?" He asked.

I went back and looked at him.

"Do you think we could hang out today?" He asked, "Just go to get ice cream or something?"

I nodded, "If you want, sure. I'm going to find out where Cas went, and we'll leave in twenty minutes."

He nodded, "Okay." He smiled.
