Tuesday - An abandoned farm outside Dublin, Georgia

[single_man_tear]

Between dealing with the local sheriff’s office (with only Dean impersonating a FBI officer because that’s illegal and no one on Reddit should find out) they were and a tour of the local library; Dean and Jane pulled up in front of an old abandoned farmhouse.

“Okay, so my guess is that this isn’t a ghost but something called a raw head,” Dean said as he got out of the car and headed to the trunk. “Sort of like an Irish Boogeyman. They supposedly live in drains under the sink and steal away kids who are bad and don’t listen to their mother. Given this area was a settlement for Irish immigrants, one of them probably snuck over with one of them. And since this place has been abandoned for years…. Well, it’s as good a place to start looking than anywhere else. Not to mention that the local lore says the place is haunted. ”

"That's one word for it," Dean teased as they stepped out of the house. He looked over towards the Impala and felt a tiny bit of tension go away seeing the two kids in the backseat of the car. "We should probably start acting responsible and adultish."

Well Dean could at least try.

Jane offered him a smile and a quick squeeze of he hand with her's. "Hero, remember."

"I haven't forgotten," Dean said squeezing her hand back. "Doesn't mean we act like adults."

That's really Dean's issue, not Jane's.

"You do better with them than me," Jane said before putting on a smile to look approachable.

"That just comes from being the big brother," Dean said as he unlocked the car. He put on a big smile for the little ones in the back seat. "Hey kids? You hungry?"

Dean reached down in the supply of road food and pulled out packages of Doritos and pork rinds and tossing them into the back seat. Bottles of water were also handed back. The kids were too shell-shocked to do anything but tear into the food.

"They'll be fine," Dean said quietly to Jane as he started the car. "Some food and home and therapy and they'll forget all about this."

"I hope so," Jane said, looking at them with a worried expression. Then, in a quieter voice asked, "Is this how it always goes?"

Dean paused a moment before replying.

"This is the better of the outcomes," he admitted as he checked the rear view mirror to look at the kids. They were too busy devouring the food to and not paying attention.

"Most people don't believe in the weird. They may have some nightmares for a while. I've seen people forget these things. I've seen others... go down another road."
