Gamble Everything For Love ~ rp for [info]jstliketherifle and [info]likely_evil

shooting
(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.

Desecration of graves

credit fraud

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.

Dean was completely oblivious to Beth's plans for him for the evening. If he had been, he probably would have high tailed it, and decided to have this conversation by phone. However, being oblivious, he and Sam were the ones pulling up to a motel in Atlantic City, for Sam to get a room. He pulled out his phone while Sam was checking in and dialed her number, waiting for her to pick up.

When her phone rang she picked it up and looked at the number. Dean. Perfect.

"Hello?"

"Hey," he said with a small grin. "I'm in town. Where are you?"

His voice usually made her smile, but this time she shuddered. "My hotel room, but I was just about to leave. Where are you?"

He rambled off the name of the motel. "Sam's checking in. Where do you want to meet?"
[info]failuretotrust wrote:

She nodded, already grabbing her purse. "I'll come there. I need a word with both of you, actually."
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Dec. 31st, 2008 01:35 am (UTC)
"Oh," Dean blinked, before shrugging. "O-kay. Will see you when we get here."
[info]failuretotrust wrote:

"On my way." She hung up and slid into her black pumps to accompany her black pants, white shirt, and black jacket. She made her way out the door and across town to where the boys were staying. She didn't want complication, so she was going to take care of the situation before calling anyone for back up.

Dean stayed where he was on top of his car, waiting for his brother to come out. He would hang out in his room for a while while he was waiting.

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.

Sam came out, tossing him the spare key card as they made their way over to room 17. Two beds, and Sam had made sure there was a second room available in case he needed it.

"Did she say what she wanted?" Sam was setting up his laptop on the desk, checking for a wireless signal.
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Dec. 31st, 2008 06:15 am (UTC)
"Nope," Dean said with a shrug. "Said she wanted to talk to both of us, though."

He paused for a minute, before shaking his head. "She's been acting a little weird."
[info]likely_evil wrote:
Dec. 31st, 2008 05:17 pm (UTC)
"I haven't really seen her online lately. What do you mean, 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.

"I don't know," Dean said with a shrug. "She just sounded a little off on the phone."

When 99 arrived at the motel, she pulled her rental car to a stop. She climbed out of the black, unsuspecting vehicle and moved to find the number for the boys' room. Her eyes landed on it and she breathed deeply. Her agent badge was tucked inside her clothes and her gun was against her thigh.

She stepped over and brought her knuckles up, rapping gently.

Dean looked up at the knock on the door, tilting his head to the side slightly as he moved over to answer the door. He left the chain in the door, pulling it back enough to check who it was, then closed it and quickly opened it the rest of the way.

"Hey," he said with a grin.
[info]failuretotrust wrote:
Dec. 31st, 2008 10:05 pm (UTC)
"Hi," she said softly, offering a small smile. Of course she didn't feel like smiling at him, but she had to get in the door after all. "Gonna let me in?"
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Dec. 31st, 2008 10:32 pm (UTC)
"Sure," he said with a nod, before stepping back, holding the door open for her. Something was still off with her. He didn't know what it was, but it was going to make a point to find out.

Sam looked up at the woman who walked in. He had talked to her many times online and seen in passing from the car, but never really spent a lot of time around her.

"Hey," he grinned easily, sitting on the edge of the desk. "You have a good trip down?"
[info]failuretotrust wrote:
Jan. 1st, 2009 12:32 am (UTC)
She nodded and shoved the door shut. In a flash of movement, she leaned down to grab her weapon from her ankle and held it out in their direction. She stepped aside to have them both more in her range and her eyes narrowed.

"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)

Dean's hands came up instantly at the sign of the gun. "Whoa. Whoa. Easy, sweetheart -- let's just talk about this alright? No need for bullets."

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.
[info]likely_evil wrote:
Jan. 1st, 2009 10:12 pm (UTC)
Sam also jumped up, confused and looking at the gun, then Brenda.

"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.
[info]failuretotrust wrote:

"Don't call me sweetheart," she said with a shake of her head. She glanced at Sam. "Sit down. Both of you. Next to each other." She breathed slowly. "You know Dean? Fancy thing about my job? I can search government files."
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 12:15 am (UTC)
Then it hit him. Hit him like a brick wall. "Fuck."

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 -- "
[info]likely_evil wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 02:25 am (UTC)
Sam looked at his brother, then tilted his head with the dude, really? look before going to sit on the bed next to his brother.

"I'm sure you can spout some bullshit, but I don't want to hear it. I don't have a high tolerance for murderers. Especially not when they try to deceive me. Did you have some kinda ulterior motive?"
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 02:46 am (UTC)
"I'm not a murderer, I swear," he said looking up at her. "It's just a whole big misunderstanding."
[info]likely_evil wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 02:59 am (UTC)
"We've never murdered anyone." Sam knew that wasn't exactly true to what she would believe... but it was. "And we can't help what other people will put into our files based off their deductions and speculations."

Law school helps sometimes.

She hesitated, but not enough to drop her guard. She remembered back to when she thought Max had lied to her. He'd had explanations and they had proven him innocent. But this was so very different.

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."
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 04:44 am (UTC)
Dean glanced over at Sam for a minute before turning back to her. "I didn't kill those people. Those three murders were a shapeshifter creature. They just looked like me, they weren't really me."
[info]likely_evil wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 04:47 am (UTC)
"There were witnesses in all three accounts, none of which were ever believed. But if you pull up security tapes we can show you how their eyes glow in response to the camera when no other person in the shot does."

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.
[info]failuretotrust wrote:

Her eyes narrowed. "Shape shifter? Glowing eyes?" Oh this was right up 84's alley. He was always trying to convince the company that certain things were real and 'out there'. She still wasn't so sure she beleived though.

"I know it sounds crazy," he said slowly. "But it's true. All of it. I swear."
[info]likely_evil wrote:

"We... we hunt these things down before the kill people. And we've saved a lot of people, Brenda."

[info]failuretotrust wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 05:35 am (UTC)
She was listening to Sam, but her eyes were on Dean. "And why should I believe you?" she asked quietly.
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 05:45 am (UTC)
"Because it's the truth?" Dean said softly, looking up at her pleadingly.
[info]likely_evil wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 01:53 pm (UTC)
Sam just let Dean have that one, because really, it was.
[info]failuretotrust wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 05:48 pm (UTC)
She wanted to believe him. She really did. She just didn't want disappointment again. She didn't want to be an idiot. She kept her position, unable to come up with words or actions.
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 05:52 pm (UTC)
Dean just looked up at her with pleading eyes. "C'mon -- you've been around all kind of creeps with your job. You've got instincts. Do I really strike you as the mass murdering type?"

He really, really hoped that wasn't pushing it.
[info]likely_evil wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 05:56 pm (UTC)
He turned on the puppy eyes. "You've talked to us, Brenda. Spent time with Dean. Have we ever even acted like you couldn't trust us before you read whatever is in that file?"
[info]failuretotrust wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 06:33 pm (UTC)
No. They didn't strike her as killers. At all. And those eyes Sam was giving her didn't help the hard edge whatsoever. After another moment or two, she shook her head slowly. "I swear to God, if you make me regret this moment...I will kill you." She slowly let the gun fall down to her side.
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 06:35 pm (UTC)
Dean exhaled slowly, collasping back on the bed slightly. "We won't -- I promise."
[info]likely_evil wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 07:46 pm (UTC)
Sam relaxed as well, lowering his arms. He looked at Dean, then Brenda.

"I don't know about you two, but I can really use a drink right about now..."
[info]failuretotrust wrote:
Jan. 2nd, 2009 10:34 pm (UTC)
99 nodded slowly as she sat down on the other bed. She was still hesitant, but she brought her leg up to put her gun back on her ankle.
[info]jstliketherifle wrote:
Jan. 3rd, 2009 06:19 pm (UTC)
"Hell yes," Dean muttered, watching Brendeth carefully as he did. He didn't like being surprised like that -- and he especially didn't like it when other people pointed guns at him and his brother.
[info]likely_evil wrote:

Sam carefully reached into Dean's bag and pulled out the bottle of whiskey there. He took a quick sip, then just held it out to them.
[info]failuretotrust wrote:

She sighed and reached for the bottle, taking a very long sip, before looking at Dean and holding it out to him.
