The Winchester Three (S1): The Beginning

Ch 6 Section 2

Burkittsville, Indiana...

Dean pulled over to the side of the road and shut the car off. He looked over to Angel and noticed she had her cell out and open to Sam's contact.

Regret filled his eyes as he watched her, "Think we should call him?"

"Maybe..." Angel sighed before closing her phone and putting it in her pocket, "Not right now though. Let's just get to work."

They both get out of the car and walk over to Scotty's Cafe where a man sat in a chair on the porch.

"Let me guess..." Dean gestured to the sign above them then to the man, "Scotty."

"Yep."

"Hi, my name's John Bonham." Dean introduced, "This is my sister Deborah."

Scotty raised a brow, "Isn't that the drummer for Led Zeppelin... and his sister?"

"Wow. Good." Dean laughed off his shock, "Classic rock fan."

"What can I do for you, John and Deborah?"

Angel pulled out two missing persons flyers for Holly and Vince Parker and handed them over, "We were wondering if you might've seen these two around?"

"Nope." He shook his head as he studied the flyers, "Who are they?"

"Friends of ours." Dean answered, "They went missing about a year ago. They passed through somewhere around here, and we've already asked around Scottsburg and Salem-"

"Sorry." Scotty quickly dismissed as he handed the flyers back over to Angel, "We don't get many strangers around here."

Dean and Angel each nodded stiffly as they watched him.

Dean smiled, "Scotty, you've got a smile that lights up a room, anybody ever tell you that?" Scotty stared at him strangely making him chuckle, "Never mind. See you around."

As they walked away Angel scoffed, "Okay, Mr. Creepy over there is definitely hiding something."

"Oh, yeah." Dean shook his head, "Question is, what?"

Jorgeson General Store...

Dean looked between the older couple, "You sure they didn't stop for gas or something?"

The older man, Harley, showed the picture to his wife Stacy before they both shook their heads, "Nope, don't remember 'em. You said they were friends of yours?"

Angel nodded as a younger girl their age, Emily, came downstairs carrying some boxes, "Yeah, that's right."

Emily looked over, "Did the guy have a tattoo?"

Dean nodded, "He did."

Emily put the boxes on the counter before coming over to them and looking at the picture of Vince, "You remember?" She looked to Harley, "They were just married."

"You're right..." Harley nodded as if recognition just came to him, "They did stop for gas. Weren't here more than ten minutes."

"Okay..." Angel pierced his eyes, "You remember anything else?"

"I told 'em how to get back to the Interstate." He shrugged, "They left town."

"Mind pointing us in the same direction?"

"Sure."

Following their directions, Dean drove through a back road next to an orchard.

Angel looked around at the trees tensely, "Is it just me or is everyone in town giving you Children of the Corn vibes?"
