(Follows this. Sammy to tag in later if he wishes.)
She'd been in Atlantic City for a day, trying to distract herself the best she could. She was pissed. More than pissed. She didn't know how to begin addressing what she felt. Betrayal. Stupidity. Hurt. Stupidity. She'd promised herself she would never let herself be deceived again. She wouldn't let someone that close, close enough to hurt her.
And here she had done it again.
She didn't trust easy, so how was it the people she began to trust...fucked things all up? She hadn't thought she trusted Dean. She thought she was keeping him at a distance. A friend. A casual lover. And Sam...Sam who she had thought was so sweet and kind in the briefest moments they'd met. She told herself not to give Dean her trust, but obviously she had without knowing it. Or else this wouldn't have hurt like it did.

Days before, bored at CONTROL, computer before her, she decided to check up on this man of slight mystery. She really didn't know who he was or what he did. She knew he and his brother traveled the country by car doing the odd job here and there, but she assumed it was legit work. Construction here and there. She hated when she was stupid enough to be naive.
When the computer blinked and beeped before her, her jaw tightened. Her eyes hardened into a glare as each line popped up for Dean and Sam Winchester.

Deceased.
They were dead. She pulled up their photos. It was them alright, but they were most certainly not dead. Her eyes scanned the descriptions of cases, witness reports, interrogations. She read about their deaths and the deaths of all those other people.
Disgust rose like bile in her throat. Her eyes closed and she was finding it difficult to breathe. Her fingers shook over the mouse as she closed the system down.
She had been deceived by some sick assholes before, but this was new. This blindsided her. In a matter of several long, agonizing seconds, she had lost the guy she'd known as Dean and seen him for what he truly was.
A dead man.

So she had called him and told him she wanted to see him. She wanted to see him and didn't want him to leave his brother behind this time. She knew what he figured he would be getting in the visit, but he was wrong.
She stood in her hotel room carefully going through the facts in her head as she waited on his call. She was still hurt, yes, but now there was much more anger. The sonovuabitch tried to play her and get away with it. Bastard had no clue who he was fucking with, and she planned on showing him that. And since he had seemingly faked his own death to continue his psychotic ways, she had no problem bringing him in with a bullet through the skull.

"Hello?"
He wasn't sure what Beth needed to talk to both of them about, but he wasn't going to push it much. At least he was seeing her, which was better than not seeing her at all.
"Did she say what she wanted?" Sam was setting up his laptop on the desk, checking for a wireless signal.
He paused for a minute, before shaking his head. "She's been acting a little weird."
The hotel's internet connection sucked. And he needed it to get up so he could get in touch with Allison to let her know they had arrived in AC and she was welcome to come down and join them.
She stepped over and brought her knuckles up, rapping gently.
"Hey," he said with a grin.
"Hey," he grinned easily, sitting on the edge of the desk. "You have a good trip down?"
"Dean, you're one slick, disgusting, sonuvabitch." She kept her focus on both of them, making sure she had a handle on her surroundings.
(retcon - her gun at her ankle not thigh cause whoops, she be wearin' pants)
He had no idea what he did. Really. For once he had absolutely no clue, and he glanced back over at his brother, before looking over at Brenda, trying to figure out the best way to disarm her without the gun going off.
"If you guys are going to have some kind of lover's spat, at least let me get out first."
He didn't think that was what this was about, but it was a moment of humor that might just give them a second to react and get a handle on the situation.
He did as the woman with the gun said, sitting down on the edge of the bed and waiting for Sam to join him. "Look, I can explain all of that -- "
Law school helps sometimes.
Her eyes crossed both men slowly and she relaxed on her feet, still aiming the gun at them. "You have five minutes to convince me. Make it good or there will be holes."
Sam added the geek portion of the explanation. He also looked around carefully to try and figure out where the weapons were, just in case.
He really, really hoped that wasn't pushing it.
"I don't know about you two, but I can really use a drink right about now..."
