Advertisement
(Based off Season 3x10)
Calliope pulled her car up to the address Dean had sent her, seeing the Impala already parked down the street. She parks her car and steps out, heading for the hospital she spots the two boys waiting.
"You got here quick" Dean remarks.
"It's Bobby" is all she says as they head inside. Dean went ahead of his brother and Calliope flirting with the nurse to find out which room Bobby was in. After a few minutes and exchange of numbers Dean gets the room number and they follow him.
Entering the room, they go in to see Bobby hooked up to machines, and Calliopes heart hurts for the old man. After a few minutes they hear footsteps and see the Doctor enter.
"So, what's the diagnosis?" Calliope asks.
"We've tested everything we can think to test. He seems perfectly healthy" the doctor tells them.
"Except he's comatose" Dean says straightforward.
"Mr.Snyderson you're his emergency contact. Anything we should know? Any illnesses?" The doctor asks.
"No, he..he never gets sick. I mean, he doesn't even catch a cold" Dean tells the doctor.
"Doctor, is there anything you can do?" Sam asks him.
"Look, I'm sorry, but we don't know what's causing it...so we don't know how to treat it. He just..went to sleep, and didn't wake up" the doctor explains.
"Umm, Thanks Doctor" Calliope says as the doctor leaves the room.
She walks over to Bobby and takes his hand, "Bobby what did you do?" She says when something suddenly happens. She gasps as she sees a room, and sees Bobby. He's walking into a kitchen when a women starts to scream at him before attacking him. Calliope gasps again as she's brought back to the hospital room.
"Calliope, you okay?" She hears Sam ask.
"Uh, yeah I need air" she says as she lets go of Bobbys hand and rushes out of the room. Calliope leans against the wall outside the room, taking a deep breath, she was shaking from what she had just experienced. She's never gone inside someone's mind before and it scared her.
"Hey, you okay?" She hears Sam's voice and looks up at him.
"Uh, yeah sorry" she says refocusing on the situation.
"So,what's the next move?" She asks not wanting to answer any questions.
"We're going to check Bobby's motel room" Sam tells her.
"Alright hopefully it gives us some answers" Calliope says and she starts to walk away and leave the hospital.
The three of them finally arrive at the motel and Dean opens the door.
"So, What was Bobby doing in Pittsburgh?" Sam asks as he closes the door behind them.
"Unless, he's taking a lame vacation" Dean says as they go into the middle of the room.
"He must have been working a job right?"Calliope says as they look around the room for clues.
"Well, you think there'd be some sort of sign of something, you know" Dean says to them as the brothers open drawers.

Calliope walks toward the closet, "Research, news clippings" she hears Dean say as she opens the closet door.
"Not even a friggin pizza box or beer can" Dean says as Calliope pulls on the light and begins to move the clothes around.
"How about this" she says to the boys as she steps back showing exactly what they had been looking for .
There's maps, news clippings and pictures of different plants and seeds. One of the maps Bobby had written Pittsburgh in big letters and underlined it. There's a bunch of post it's, addresses and numbers.
"Good old Bobby, always covering up his tracks" Dean chuckles as he looks over Calliopes shoulder at the not s.
"You make heads or tales of any of this?" She asks them as Dean grabs a paper and reads it.
"Silene capensis, which of course means absolutely nothing to me" he says to them.
Calliope then notices a clipping, "Here, an Obit" she then reads it over, "Dr.Walter Gregg, 64, university neurologist"
"How did he bite it?" Dean asks bluntly.
"Umm, actually they don't know. They say he just went to sleep and didn't wake up" she explains as he takes the obit from her and starts to read it.
"That sound familiar to you?" He asks his brother.
Sam just shakes his head, "All right..so let's say Bobby was looking into the docs death. You know hunting something"
"That starts hunting him" Calliope says to Sam.
"Yeah" he says to her.
"All right, you two stay here" Calliope points at the closet, "See if you can make heads or tails of this"
"What are you gonna do?" Sam asks her
"I'm gonna look into the good doctor" she smiles at Sam.
"Not without me" Dean tells her.
"I think I can look into this on my own" Calliope says clearly not wanting Dean by her side.
"I want to see how you work in the field" he says to her.
"Fine, but we take my car, and no your not driving it, nobody drives my baby" she says to him as she walks toward the door.
"At least I get to ride in it" he says happily, and Calliope rolls her eyes annoyed, as they leave the motel room.
Dean was a giddy little boy riding in Calliopes 69 Camero, as they arrived at the doctors office. "Follow my lead" Calliope says to Dean as they get out of her car. They enter the office to see a women inside and many boxes, "Umm can I help you" the women asks.
"Detective Green and Geller, we want to ask you a few questions about Dr.Gregg." Calliope asks her.
"Uh, Okay" she replies to them.
"So, your Dr.Greggs lab assistant?" Dean asks her as they look around.
"That's right" she replies.
"His death must have come as a shock to you"Calliope says as she walks around the room.
"Yeah It did, But still to go in you ur sleep, peaceful..That's what you wish for right?" The assistant says as Calliope notices a book seated on a desk.

"Yeah right" she hears Dean say.
"Dr.Gregg studied sleeping disorders,dreams?" Calliope asks as she picks the book up showing the assistant.
"I don't understand. I went over all this with the other detective" she says clearly not wanting them there anymore.
"You already spoke to another Detective?" Dean asks the women.
"Yes, a very nice older man with a beard" she tells them, Calliope and Dean look at each other, both knowing she's speaking about Bobby.
"Well, we'd like to hear it again if you don't mind" Dean asks the girl.
She seems really nervous, "thing is I'm sort of busy, maybe we could do this later"
Calliope takes a step closer to her, "Sure, yeah we could just bring you down to the station this afternoon, you know get your statement all official like" she says making the girl think this over.
The girl sighs, "look, okay, I don't know about Dr.Greggs experiments, not until I was cleaning out his files"
"His experiments uh.. the ones he was conducting on..sleeping" Dean asks her trying not to sound confused.
"Look, no one knew okay. Not the university, not anybody" she steps forward. "I already spoke with a lawyer and he told me I can't be held liable for anything"
"Maybe you couldn't, but that was before the new evidence came to light" Calliope lies,and Dean gives her a quick look.
"New evidence" the girl asks, "what new evidence?"
"We're not a liberty to say" Dean quickly tells her.
The girl sighs, feeling like she has no other choice,"look I'm just a grad student. This gig was to cover tution"
"Maybe, But still this could go on your permanent record, unless" Calliope steps closer placing a hand on the girls shoulder, "you hand all the doctors research over to us. All of it" she looks the assistant in the eyes
The women thinks this over for a second, "okay, I'll give it to you" she says moving away and gathering everything for Dean and Calliope.
Calliope and Dean left the doctors office, heading back to her car, files in hand.
"You did pretty good" Dean says to her.
"Thanks, I guess" she replies not sure if that's a compliment or not.
"I mean it, you were impressive, the whole new evidence thing" he says as she unlocks the car.
"Yeah, well I figured that was the only way to convince her to hand over the files." She says as the climb into the car.
"So what is the next move?" Dean asks Calliope, closing the door behind him.
"We should check out this Jeremey Frost" she hands Dean the file, "he recently dropped out of the study, and his address matches one I saw on Bobby's wall" Calliope turns the car and starts to drive away.
Pulling the car up to the address, she slowly stops the car and parks, they both then step out of the car. Heading up to the house they get to the door and Calliope knocks. The door slowly opens and they both flash the badges, saying they worked for the local police. The young man they assume is Jeremy, steps back allowing them inside.
"Look I don't know what the RA said, but, ah, I was growing Ferns" he says.
"Take it easy" Dean chuckles, "That's not why we are here"
"Really" he asks, "Oh thank God, okay"
"We wanna talk about Dr. Gregg's sleep study" Calliope says looking at him, while Dean glances around the house.
"Yeah, Dr. Gregg died didn't he?" Jeremy asked as they follow him into the kitchen.
"You were one of his test subjects, right?" Calliope asks wanting to get all the details.
Jeremy opens the fridge, "Yeah" he says as he takes two beers out of the refrigerator and offers them to Dean and Calliope, "Unless you're on duty or whatever" he asks them.
"No, thank you" Calliope declines. Dean looks at the beer, then at Calliope, she just rolls her eyes, "he can make an exception" she says, and Jeremy hands the beer to Dean. Both men open the beer and clink their bottles together, a smile forms on Deans face.
"Now, Dr.Gregg was testing treatments for 'Charcot-Wilbrand' syndrome, which is means?"Calliope asks bringing them back to why they were there.
"Uh, I, uh..I can't dream" he explains. Dean looks at him confused, "I had this bike accident when I was a kid and banged my head pretty good and I haven't dreamt since. Till the study. You know sort of" Jeremy explains.
Calliope senses that there is something he is holding back from them, or he doesn't want them to know the truth.
"What did the doc give you?" Dean asks him, taking another sip of beer.
"It's this yellow tea..it..it smelled awful, tasted worse" Jeremey tells them.
"What did it do?" Calliope asks.
"Just passed right out. Like a bad acid trip, you know" he says to them.
"Totally" Dean says earning a look from Calliope, "I mean no"
"That was is. I dropped out of the study right after that. I didn't..like it. To tell you the truth..it kind of scared me" he tells them.
"Thank you for the info, if we need anything else we will be in touch" Calliope says as she shakes the mans hand and heads off to leave. She gets the door and realizes Dean wasn't following her, "Umm detective" she calls out getting his attention. Dean drowns the rest of his beer down, thanks Jeremy and they then finally leave the house.
"I'll let Sam know what we found out, meet us at the hospital" Dean tells her as they head back to her car.
"Do you always drink on the job?" Calliope asks him as she unlocks the car and they get in.
"Always" he smirks at her as she turns the car on and drives them back to the hospital.

Eight
His name is Eight. Not really, but that’s what the System decided after a slip of the tongue. One moment, he was stepping out the office door on the way home, and the next waking up on a hillside below a town wall. Oh, and the gate guard drove him off, because he thought Eight was a monster. Life’s tough when you’re trapped in an eight-year old body on another world. The first book focuses on Eight's survival on a dangerous new world. If you're a fan of Gary Paulsen's Hatchet, you'll enjoy it. The story is one of discovery, bushcraft, and finding one's way. Note that, while this is very much LitRPG, progression is slow, and Eight spends much of the first book alone. The second book recounts what happens when Eight and friends head east to the village of Voorhei. Expect a blend of fantasy adventure, ghost story, cozy mystery, and family drama. Books one and two make a complete story, while book 3 has just gotten underway.

The Shattered Circle
Aleyr Frostborn has survived a hundred prophecies of her defeat, breaking each one by slaying the champions of light sent to kill her. Amongst the forces of good, her very name is a curse, and with good reason. Beyond her own evil, it is said that so long as she lives, the reign of the Godslayer himself will last: the lich king who the terrified masses call the King in Black. While the kingdoms and empires that surround the blighted lands of the undead lands struggle to survive and beat back the tide of evil, the machinations of the Eternal Kingdom's dark court barely contain the bitter struggles for power between the forces that have made it what it is. With one foretold hero brutally snuffed out, another will inevitably arise. For Aleyr, the cycle only further embitters her towards the gods of good and all those who serve them. But the truth is that her downfall might be something much closer to home than their prophecies, those last dregs of mortality beating inside her own chest. With a thoughtless intersection between cruelty and mercy, she begins a chain of events that threatens to tear the Eternal Kingdom and her own loyalties into shreds. After all, many things can be broken, not just prophecies.
