Both Dean and Skylar were sitting in silence for a while before Dean decided to finally speak up.

Dean: so are you gonna tell me what the hell that was?!

Skylar: uh, the thing we crossed, I think that was a stop sign.

Dean: (serious glare) very funny smart ass, why the hell would you set fire to your chem lab?

Skylar: I don't feel like talking about it.

Dean: ya? And I didn't feel like driving thousands of miles to pick you up, so I guess we are all making sacrifices! Now talk!

Skylar: like I already told you at school, it was a mistake, I was trying to do a chemical reaction and things went haywire.

Dean: that's a really big mistake don't you think?

Skylar: (mumbling under her breath) whatever

Dean: what'd you say!?

Skylar: I asked why dad isn't the one who came to get me

Dean: oh you should be thanking your stars he isn't the one who came to get you.

Before Dean could proceed to give Skylar a lecture the phone rang and it was Sam. She had never been more happy to see him call.

Dean stopped the car at a gas station and got out of the car.

Dean: Don't move.

Skylar nodded in response

She waited for about 10 minutes before Dean came back.

Skylar: oh good, I was starting to think you ran away.

Dean: oh come on sky, you know I would never do that.....to my car.

Skylar rolled her eyes at that response.

Skylar: what was so important you couldn't talk about it in front of me anyway?

Dean: nothing.

With that remark Dean started the car and they drove away. After what seemed like years they arrived at a crappy motel.

Skylar: is this really where we are staying.

Dean: yup.

They both walked in and Sammy was sitting on the bed.

Sammy: hey sky.

Skylar threw her arms around her gigantic brother (or as far as she could reach).

Sammy: so suspended huh?

Skylar: can we talk about anything else, like why we are staying in a crappy motel in the middle of nowhere?

Both Dean and Sam exchanged looks. Skylar knew something was up, she just had to find out what it was.

Dean: oh we thought we'd show you where you would be working in the future, you know after u fail high school and go to some cheap sack collage and then drop out from there too!

Skylar: geez, sorry i asked.

Sam: Dean can I talk to you for a minute?

Both Sam and Dean left their little sister and walked outside.

Dean's p.o.v

Sam: how are we supposed to hunt with her around?

Dean: she's just gonna have to come with us.

Sam: are you out of your mind?! There's a reason she was sent to a boarding school when she was seven Dean, dad doesn't want her to do anything with this stuff.

Dean: you gotta better idea Sam? Cuz I'm not leaving that little arsonist alone in our room.

They both exchanged a glance and Sam knew Dean was right. They both walked back into the motel.

Skylar's p.o.v

Sam and Dean walked in with serious looks on their faces and stared at me and then back to each other.

Skylar: uh , what!?

Dean: we gotta go

Skylar: where?!

Dean: first rule: no questions!

Skylar: what why, and where are we even going? We literally just got here.

Dean: Skylar, all those....they are questions

Sam: look we need you to trust us okay? You think you can do that?

Skylar: ya, ya ofcourse I trust you guys.

•later in the car•
Sam's p.o.v

Dean: alright so what did this chick say?

Sam: right so, He checks in every day by cell. He emails, photos, stupid little videos—and they haven't heard anything in over three days now.

Dean: Well, maybe he can't get cell reception.

Sam: He's got a satellite phone, too.

Dean: Could it be he's just having fun and forgot to check in?

Sam: says he wouldn't do that.

Dean looked back at his little sister, she was clearly uncomfortable with the whole situation and had questions and he decided to throw her a bone.

Dean: alright sky, you get one question. Ask wisely.

Skylar thought about which question she should ask anxiously.

Skylar: why the hell do you guys care about some missing person?

Sam and Dean stared back and forth at each other, they knew couldn't hide their secret from her much longer. But they decided to take it as far as they could.

Sam: we are concerned about how and why he went missing.

Skylar: why?!

Sam: that was one question sky.

Skylar: ya with the most vague reply.

Dean: oh well I didn't exactly get a detailed reply as to why you decided to burn your school down.

Skylar went quiet again as Dean knew she would, he could see she was trying to avoid that conversation for as long as possible, and for now that was an advantage for Dean.

Sam: So, Blackwater Ridge doesn't get a lot of traffic. Local campers, mostly. But still, this past April, two hikers went missing out there. They were never found.

Sam opens John's journal.

Dean: Any before that?

Sam pulls out newspaper articles to show Dean.

Sam: "Yeah, in 1982, eight different people all vanished in the same year. Authorities said it was a grizzly attack."

Dean reads the headline in The Lost Creek Gazette.

GRIZZLY BEAR ATTACKS!
UP TO EIGHT HIKERS VANISH IN LOST CREEK AREA
HIKERS DISAPPEARANCE BAFFLE AUTHORITIES'
Families continue search and rescue efforts in spite of disappointing [...]

Sam pulls out his laptop.

Sam: And again in 1959 and again before that in 1936.

SAM opens the laptop, which already has a window open to TOM's video.

Sam: Every twenty-three years, just like clockwork. Okay. Watch this. Here's a clincher. I downloaded that guy Tommy's video to the laptop. Check this out.

SAM pulls up the video and goes through three frames of the video one at a time. A shadow crosses the screen.

Dean: "Do it again."

Sam repeats the frames.

Sam: "That's three frames. That's a fraction of a second. Whatever that thing is, it can move."

Dean hits sam. Sam looks up.

Dean: Told you something weird was going on.

Sam Yeah.

Sam: (closes the laptop.) how you doin there sky.

Skylar: oh no please don't worry about me, all this just seems like another Tuesday for the two of you.

They both glanced at each other again, their sister didn't know just how right she was.

•later at the forest•
"Skylar's p.o.v

They all exit the car and Dean opens his trunk. This leaves Skylar shook.

There Is a hidden compartment with weapons. There are multiple types of guns and bullets.

Her brothers look at her as she takes a step back.

Skylar: what the actual hell.

Sam: sky relax.

Skylar: oh I think we are way past that.

Just before anyone could reply Skylar saw a girl come up behind her brothers. Dean saw them and said;

Dean: You guys got room for two more?

Hayley: Wait, you want to come with us?

Roy: Who are these guys?

Hayley: Apparently this is all the park service could muster up for the search and rescue.

SAM heads past everyone.

Roy: You're rangers?

Dean: That's right.

Dean gave his little sister a little nod to tell her to go along with them.

Roy:( looking at Skylar) ain't she a little too young to be a ranger

Skylar: aren't you a little too old to be alive

This made Dean smirk....she was definitely his sister

Hayley: And you're hiking out in biker boots and jeans?

Dean: Well, sweetheart, I don't do shorts.

Dean heads past Hayley and Skylar follows

Roy: What, you think this is funny? It's dangerous back country out there. Her brother might be hurt.

Dean: Believe me, I know how dangerous it can be. We just wanna help them find their brother, that's all.

Dean headed past Sam and Sam gave Skylar a nod to go on in front of him so that she was in the middle of both her brothers.

THE FOREST:-
Skylar grew in frustration....she still didn't know where her dad was or what they were doing here and her brothers didn't seem to care enough to answer any of her questions.

Dean: Roy, you said you did a little hunting.

Roy: Yeah, more than a little.

Dean: Uh-huh. What kind of furry critters do you hunt?

Roy: Mostly buck, sometimes bear.

Dean passed Roy

Dean: Tell me, uh, Bambi or Yogi ever hunt you back?

Roy grabbed Dean and Sam and Skylar look on.

Dean: Whatcha doing, Roy?

Roy grabbed a stick and poked the bear trap Dean had almost stepped in. Skylar could see Haley looked just as annoyed as her.

Roy: You should watch where you're stepping. Ranger.

Roy dropped the stick and retakes the lead.

Dean: It's a bear trap.

They hike on. Haley catches up to DEAN.

Hayley: You didn't pack any provisions. You guys are carrying a duffel bag. You're not rangers.
Hayley grabs Dean's arm.

Hayley: So who the hell are you?

Skylar wanted to know the answer to that question herself because right now the two guys in front of her weren't her brothers.

Ben went past Hayley and Dean. Sam-looked at Dean who indicated with his expression that Sam should take Skylar and go on by; SAM obeyed and shot Skylar a look to follow. She tried to fight it off but then locked eyes with Dean who had an expression that said it wasn't the right moment to be a smartass so she rolled her eyes and followed Sam.

As soon as they had moved down a little further Skylar grabbed sam's arm and stopped him.

Skylar: Sammy what the actual fuck is going on!

Sam: sky we don't have time for this right now.

Skylar: well then make time Sam because I'm don't with the whole no questions thing. You still haven't told me where dad is and now we are in the middle of nowhere with a car full of guns, helping strangers look for some kid. So I ask again what the actual fuck!

Sam kind of lost his temper at this point. He was trying to protect his sister but she was starting to get on his nerves with the constant whining.

Sam: you wanna know the truth we don't know where dad is HE IS MISSING! And we're here because we are hunters! not animals but we hunt things like ghosts....because they are real, we know this because mum was killed by a demon. A demon dads been hunting since then....it's the reason we became hunters in the first place. And u aren't allowed to ask questions because for the past 14 years we've been trying to keep you away from all this....let you be a kid....but we're clearly way past that.

Dean: SAMMY! What the hell man

Sam just glared at dean and before Dean could say anything else they heard a scream

Skylar was brought out of shock by the scream.

Roy: Haley! Over here!
Hayley ran towards ROY's voice, followed closely by the others. They came to a halt.

Hayley: Oh my God.

The tents are torn open and bloody and all the supplies are scattered.

Roy: Looks like a grizzly.

Hayley Tommy?

Hayley takes off her backpack and goes through the campsite.

Hayley: Tommy!
Sam moves to catches up with Hayley

Skylar watches dean as he closely examines the dirt she goes and kneels next to him and dean shoots her a sympathy glare.

One that said sorry you had to find out like this kid but also a look that said we have bigger issues right now so I can't be your big brother and you gotta get a hold of yourself.

After this dean yelled at Sam to come check out what they had found

Dean: Sam!The bodies were dragged from the campsite. But here, the tracks just vanish. That's weird.
I'll tell you what, that's no skinwalker or black dog.

Skylar just thought to herself a who and a what!

She made her way back to the campsite with everyone else.

Someone: Help! Help!

ROY leads the way as everyone runs to the aid of the shouter.

Someone: Help! Somebody!

But they found no one.

Sam: Everybody back to camp.

Back at the campsite, all of the supplies are missing.

Sam: It's smart. It wants to cut us off so we can't call for help.

Roy: You mean someone, some nutjob out there just stole all our gear.

Sam went up to dean.

I need to speak with you. In private.

They made a little way away from the group and Skylar decided to follow.

Sam: Skylar.

Skylar: just stop! You said yourself you are supernatural hunters or whatever and I'm guessing this thing isn't an animal so just tell me what we are doing so I at least know what's going on.

Sam and Dean exchanged a look that said they didn't like this but they didn't have time for a teenage tantrum

Sam: Let me see Dad's journal.
Skylar: journal
Dean: ya, it's where he recorded all the things he's killed till today.

Sam: All right, check that out.
Sam points to a First Nations–style drawing of a figure.

Dean: Oh come on, wendigos are in the Minnesota woods or, or northern Michigan. I've never even heard of one this far west.

Skylar: what's that?

Dean: it's a monster that feeds off human flesh

Skylar: oh....okay (slightly uncomfortable with how easy this is for dean)

Sam: Think about it, Dean, the claws, the way it can mimic a human voice.

Dean: Great.

Sam: We gotta get these people to safety.

Back at the campsite, Sam addresses the group while Dean And Skylar watched.

Sam: All right, listen up, it's time to go. Things have gotten...more complicated.

Hayley:What?

Roy: Kid, don't worry. Whatever's out there, I think I can handle it

Sam: It's not me I'm worried about. If you shoot this thing, you're just gonna make it mad. We have to leave. Now.

Roy: One, you're talking nonsense. Two, you're in no position to give anybody orders.

Dean: Relax.

Sam: We never should have let you come out here in the first place, all right? I'm trying to protect you.

Roy steps right into Sam's space.

Roy: You protect me? I was hunting these woods when your mommy was still kissing you good night.

Sam: Yeah? It's a damn near perfect hunter. It's smarter than you, and it's gonna hunt you down and eat you alive unless we get your stupid sorry ass out of here.

Roy: You know you're crazy, right?

SAM
Sam: Yeah? You ever hunt a wen—

Dean pushed Sam away before he could complete his sentence.

Hayley:Stop. Stop it. Everybody just stop. Look. Tommy might still be alive. And I'm not leaving here without him.

Dean: It's getting late. This thing is a good hunter in the day, but an unbelievable hunter at night. We'll never beat it, not in the dark. We need to settle in and protect ourselves.

Out in the woods at night....this might be a regular thing for her brothers...but for her...Skylar couldn't help but think about every single horror movie that started out just like this.

Hopefully they would make it our alive.
