∞ Jorgeson General Store, Burkitsville, Indiana, Day ∞

"You sure they didn't stop for gas or something?" Dean clarified

The old man showed the flyers to his wife. His wife shook her head.

"Nope, don't remember 'em" the old man reasoned "You said they were friends of yours?"

"That's right" Dean said

" Did the guy have a tattoo?" A girl's voice asked, Dean looked up and saw a girl coming down the stairs carrying a couple of boxes on her hands.

"Yes, he did" Dean confirmed as he watched the girl put the boxes down on the counter.

She looked at Vince's flyer before turning to the old couple, "You remember? They were just married" She said.

"You're right" the old guy said "They did stop for gas. Weren't here more than ten minutes"

"You remember anything else?" Dean asked

"I told em how to get back to the Interstate. They left town"

"Could you point me in the same direction?"

" Sure"

Dean was driving in the direction the old man pointed him to. As he came across an orchard he heard a strange noise from the backseat.

"What the hell?" He commented as he pulled over near the entrance of the orchard. He reached into his duffel bag and pulled out his EMF meter which was frantically beeping.

He got out of the car and started exploring the orchard. As he walked around he saw a scarecrow. He walked over to it and stared at it.

"Dude, you're fugly" Dean said. He noticed a sickle in the scarecrow's hand and a design on it's arm. He grabbed a ladder from a nearby tree and placed it below the scarecrow before climbing on top of it. He moved the tattered clothing from it's arm and saw it was a tattoo. He pulled out Vince's flyer and compared it to it. He looked at the scarecrow's non-exist eyes.

"Nice tat"

Dean pulled up in Burkitsville's gas station and got out of the car.

"You're back" said a girl's voice

Dean turned to her, it was the same girl from the store "Never left"

"Still looking for your friends?" She asked

Dean nodded, " You mind fillin' her up there..." He looked at her necklace "Emily?"

She nodded before she grabbed a pump and put it in the Impala's gas tank.

"So, you grew up here?" Dean asked.

"I came here when I was thirteen. I lost my parents. Car accident. My aunt and uncle took me in" Emily explained

" They're nice people" Dean commented

" Everybody's nice here" Emily said

"So, what, it's there, uh, perfect little town?"

" Well, you know, it's the boonies. But I love it. I mean, the towns around us, people are losing their homes, their farms. But here, it's almost like we're blessed" Emily pointed out.

Dean nodded "Hey, you been out to the orchard? You seen that scarecrow?" He asked

" Yeah, it creeps me out" Emily admitted

Dean laughed, "Whose is it?" He asked after a moment.

"I don't know. It's just always been there"
