Chapter 32: Maybe there is

House of the holy 2

Alexis shines the flashlight at the dead body that had been dug up.

"So much for the innocent chruchgoing librarian." Sam says.

"Well, whatever spoke to Gloria about this knew what it was talking about, I'll give you that." Dean agrees.

"We just gotta find out what told her." Alexis stands up, wiping her hands on the thighs of her jeans.

"Would you stop with the sad puppy looks? Its depressing." Alexis tells Dean.

Sam walks in the door. Vivian rolls her eyes at his arrival.

"Did you bring quarters?" Dean asks Sam.

"You're not getting any quarters." Alexis shakes her head.

"I'll give you some quarters. I got quarters." Vivian offers.

"You will not give him quarter's." Alexis points at her.

"Dude, I'm not enabling your sick habit. You're one of those lab rats that pushes the pleasure button instead of the food button until it dies." Sam sits down.

Alexis laughs. "He called you a lab rat."

"He sure looks like a rat." Vivian mutters to herself.

"What are you talking about? I eat. And I got news."

"Me too."

"Alright. You go first."

"Three students disappeared off campus this year. All were last seen at the library."

"Where Carl Gulley worked."

"Yup."

"Sick bastard."

"So Gloria's angel--"

"Angel?" Dean asks.

"Okay, whatever this thing is."

"Well, whatever it is, it struck again."

"What?"

"I was listening o the police radio. There was this guy, uh, Zach Smitt. Some local drunk. Be went up to a strangers door last night, stabbed him in the heart."

"He went to the police and confessed?"

"Yeah. He did." Alexis nods.

"Roma Downey made him do it." Dean adds. "Now I, uh, got the victims address."

~~~

Sam, Dean, and Alexis break in the victims house and start searching.

"Find anything?" Sam asks the two as he stares at the computer.

"Well, Frank liked his catalog shopping. That's about all I got. You?" Dean asks as he flips through the pages of one catalog.

"Not much here."
