404. Devil Town.
Supernatural Universe.
In a dilapidated town in Colorado, thick smoke billowed everywhere.
"Dean, I'm afraid we won't make it out," Sam whispered as he crouched by the window, holding a shotgun. He was secretly watching the people roaming the streets outside and spoke quietly to Dean, who was next to him.
"Quit being so pessimistic. We're definitely getting out of here. Hiss—" Dean's mood beca agitated at Sam's words. But as soon as he exerted himself, blood started to pour from the wound on his thigh, and he sucked in a sharp breath from the pain.
Peering his head out again, Sam looked at the people outside who moved like zombies, and his face beca grim.
Although these people appeared human, their pitch-black eyes told Sam that none of them were truly 'human.' They were all high-level demons possessed by evil spirits.
Two years ago, Sam and Dean had personally put an end to the Yellow-Eyed Demon, avenging their father and mother. But what they hadn't expected was that their actions had unintentionally opened the gates of Hell.
Since then, countless demons trapped in the deepest parts of Hell had begun to erge, forcing the brothers to take up the path of hunting high-level demons once again.
At first, things weren't so bad. Although they faced many dangerous situations, they always managed to survive by relying on their bond and experience.
But that didn't last long.
After Sam killed Lilith, the White-Eyed Demon who had been sealed by Lucifer, one of the most powerful beings in the world, Lucifer himself—the ultimate fallen angel who had created countless demons—was finally free and returned to the human world.
"Lucifer's escape opened the apocalypse. Dean, you know this. I'm the most suitable vessel for Lucifer. They're after ," Sam said, staring at the demons outside, then glancing at Dean, who was tending to his thigh wound. He sighed deeply.
"I know, but I won't give up on you. I won't let that freak take your body!" Dean replied without hesitation. He seed to have sensed that Sam was considering giving up and couldn't help but continue, "Listen, Sammy, we're brothers. We'll never be separated. Understand? Don't give up, and don't hand your body over to the demons. We'll figure sothing out."
Sam nodded slightly, forcing a smile, but anyone could tell that, given the current situation, they were likely facing a grim outco.
Noticing Sam's mood, Dean decided not to dwell on the topic further. Instead, he changed the subject.
"By the way, how's Ellen doing?"
"Ellen has taken the remaining people into hiding. They're safe for now, but we can't be sure how many demons are around, and Jo has been possessed by a demon. We... we're in big trouble," Sam replied.
The brothers had received information from the Harvelle's Roadhouse recently and had co here thinking it would be a normal hunting mission. However, when they arrived, they realized the situation was far more bizarre than they had imagined.
Ever since Alex gave Jo the Storm Ring, Jo, along with her mother, Ellen, had started hunting demons. With Jo's powerful abilities, they quickly beca well-known.
Because the other hunters didn't know that Jo's powers ca from the ring, they had given Jo the nickna "Lightning Girl" and assud her powers were derived from witchcraft and magic.
Two weeks ago, Jo and her mother, Ellen, had tracked signs of demonic activity to this area and decided to investigate.
But what they didn't expect was that this town was even more sinister than they had imagined. Before they could uncover any trace of the demons, the demons ca for them first.
What they saw was terrifying—almost everyone in sight had pitch-black eyes, and their expressions were twisted as they tried to attack the people around them. To protect themselves, the mother and daughter had no choice but to kill demons while hiding in a church.
If it had only been a few demons, Ellen and Jo wouldn't have been scared. But the problem was that there were just too many demons outside. It felt as if the entire town had been transford into a city of demons.
With no other choice, Ellen sent out a distress signal to nearby hunters. The first to respond was Bobby, but because he had been injured and was paralyzed from the waist down, he thought of the brothers.
Dean and Sam had co to help after receiving the signal.
"I still can't believe Jo got possessed," Dean said, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth.
Jo was like family to Dean. He couldn't understand how soone like her, a skilled hunter, could be possessed by a demon. After all, hunters were supposed to be marked with special magical symbols to prevent possession.
As a hunter, and from a family of hunters, Jo should have been marked from a young age, which made it nearly impossible for her to be possessed.
"I can't imagine it either, but that's the reality. Ellen told us herself. Rember? Jo nearly shocked her to death," Sam said, shaking his head in frustration.
"So what do we do now? This Devil Town is clearly not sothing the two of us can handle, let alone with Jo possessed. You've seen the power of that ring," Dean sighed, continuing, "To win this fight, we need stronger firepower. The most important thing right now is to get back to the church and join up with Ellen and the other survivors."
"But your leg—"
Sam furrowed his brow. When Dean went to grab his weapon, a demon had shot him in the thigh, and now moving was difficult.
"I'm fine, just a mosquito bite," Dean said dismissively. "The church isn't far. As long as we can get there, Ellen will help us, and we'll be safe. Help up."
Dean said as he struggled to rise.
Sam, seeing this, hurried to support him, afraid he might fall.
anwhile, on the other side of town...
In the backroom of a convenience store, the hunter Rufus was loading bullets while stealthily glancing at Jo in the distance.
Rufus had been in this line of work for a long ti, but it was the first ti he had seen a fellow hunter as stunning as Jo, a young, beautiful blonde.
Though Rufus was a loner, he was in his forties, and often drank and chatted with other hunters. They would sotis drunkenly confess that if they could sleep with Lightning Girl for just one night, they would trade ten years of their life.
At the ti, Rufus had scoffed at this idea. But now, after eting Jo in person and working alongside her, he found there was so truth to that sentint.
"If you can't control your eyes, I can help you with that," Jo suddenly said, sensing his gaze. The aggressive look in his eyes made her feel deeply uncomfortable.
"I was just admiring—alright, alright, I'm done looking," Rufus stamred, quickly backing off.
But when he saw the electric sparks dancing on Jo's fingertips, he imdiately raised his hands in surrender.
After a pause, Rufus let out a deep sigh and changed the subject.
"Don't misunderstand. I just want to tell you that the situation outside is very dangerous. Your mother, Ellen, has been possessed by a demon. Like the rest of the town, she's beco a puppet of the demons. It's going to be hard for just the two of us to escape."
"The other hunters know about the situation here. Once they get the ssage, they won't just sit by. I'm sure they're on their way," Jo said, not even turning her head.
"You don't understand, little girl. The situation here is more complicated than you think. We've never seen so many demons gathered in one place, and we've never seen demons capable of possessing hunters," Rufus said earnestly.
"Plus, the demons have blown up the bridges connecting this town to others. How can you be sure the hunters will get here in ti to save us instead of just showing up to collect our bodies?" Rufus added.
Jo frowned, about to say sothing, when suddenly, a purple light appeared through the gap at the bottom of the door.
The light was brief and vanished as quickly as it ca.
Both Jo and Rufus shuddered at the strange sight and imdiately chambered their firearms, their gazes fixed on the door.
Then, the next second, a sharp knocking sound echoed.
Knock, knock, knock—
