[The Heroes' Journey]

"You know, I hate missing my favorite show," Chuck said.

A gunshot sounded.

"Aah!" a man cried as a dog barked. "Aah!" There was another gunshot.

"Who are you?" the man asked.

"We're the guys and girl who save the world."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Garth cried. "Hey, guys."

Bess hissed.

"Don't hurt her," Garth told them.

"You're married?" Sam asked.

"To a werewolf," Dean added.

"Garth."

"You still think that you're the hero of this story," Chuck said.

"We'll take Chuck down," Sam told them.

"Exactly what we're gonna do," Dean agreed.

"Ohh! No. Oh, that was just the beginning. No. This is the rest," Chuck said.

There was cheering, heaving breathing, and grunting. "Yeah! Come on! Come on! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!"

The werewolf growled.

BUNKER

A smoke alarm beeped and Sam sniffled. "Oh, no. Oh, great. Oh! "

Sam coughed.

Nadia coughed. "Mommy, I don't feel good."

Kennedy sighed, holding her head. "I know, baby."

"My tummy hurts," Robert whined.

"I know, dear."

Dean was at a Kwik Mart getting supplies. He pulled a couple packs of beer from the fridge and walked around the store a bit before walking up to the register.

"Hey, Teddy. Hey. What's new?" Dean asked.

"Uh, my psoriasis is back," Teddy replied.

"Oh."

BUNKER

Sam grunted as he spilled noodles and boiling hot water and glass shattered.

Kennedy started sweeping up the broken dishes and slipped on the wet floor.

KWIK MART

"$40.32," Teddy said.

"Um right. There you go." Dean handed over the credit card.

"Thank you."

The card machine beeped twice after Teddy swiped the card.

"Oh. Oh, God. Okay. Aah!" Sam cried.

The machine beeped a third time and Teddy said, "Uh, declined."

Dean frowned. "What? No, no, no, that's No, that card's worked for like five years. I-"

"Sorry."

"Aah!" Sam and Kennedy cried.

"Wha -- Seriously? Thanks, Teddy. Whoa!" Dean walked out, seeing a parking ticket on the window. "Seriously?! Seriously? Sammy!" Dean made his way back to the bunker and the door closed. "Sammy! Kennedy!"

"Dean? Hey!" Sam greeted, tripping over a step.

"Was that a trip?" Dean asked.

"Yeah. Weird."
