[Doesn't answer that, a girl's got to make a living and it isn't always happy and pretty]

We could try and cut it off at the treeline, or wait until it heads back to the cottage?

Treeline. Gives us a bit more time to take the damn thing down.

Good move, you take left?

[Dean salutes her with the sawn-off and starts clambouring as quietly as he can down the embankment towards the creature, flicking his gaze to it and it's means of escape]

[Kate takes the less steep path down to the clearing, checking around her]

Com'on out ugly, Mama's got a titanium bullet with your name on it...if you have a name...

[Dean whistles sharply to draw her attention to the creatures movements, pointing to his right where he's lurking]

[Kate's head snaps up, and she looks to where he's moving on the other side of the clearing, she moves quickly and quietly to his side, feeling at her belt for an extra clip.]

Think it's spotted us?

[Keeping his voice low so the thing can't hear them] Nah, it's sort of - does that thing look like it's feelin' its way around to you?

[Also whispering] Like it can't see or something? Yeah.

[The creatures' head snaps up]

...Which might explain why it's hearing's so good.

Shit. [The thing moves fast and comes barrelling towards them. Dean brings up his shot gun and fires at it but that only makes it pause, turning to race down the side of a building.] Hell. C'mon.

[Damn, it's faster than it looks, Kate bolts after him, firing off a round over her shoulder, it BOUNCES OFF the thing's skin]

Shit is right, get cover!

[Dean barrells himself down behind a crate, swearing to himself as he searches his pockets for another weapon.] Y'got a Plan B?

You were my plan B. [Peeks over the crate, pistol aimed.]

[He scans the small area around them and nods at her] Door, three o'clock. Think we can lure the thing in there? Trapping it might me our best option right now.

[Thinks about it for a moment, before grimly loading a clip of armor piercing rounds into her gun]

Worth a try, but we need bait, I'm faster.

There's a window round the back, get in, get out an' we deal with it once it's trapped, yeah?

Fine, but I'm putting a hell of a lot of faith in your aim here, so do me a favor and don't miss the ugly sucker.

Darlin', just do what y'have to do and I'll keep y'right.

[Okay, that would be a little insulting if he wasn't pretty damn cute.]

[Peeks out]

Okay, cover me in one...two...

[Dashes out, firing one shot into the air to get it's attention, she did, oh shit run.]

[Dean waits a split second until it's following her before he's jumping out from behind the crates and sliding after it. Once they're both firmly in the warehouse, Dean fires twice into the soft part of the creature's knees and watches as it falls to the ground with a thud. It's not dead but it's slowed down enough to give her time to make a break while he slams shut the huge metal doors]

[The creature's clearly up on it's feet again fast, because they've barely got the doors closed before it's throwing itself against them. Kate drags a heavy crate over to help barricade the door]

Nice shooting.

Told ya, been shootin' since I was a kid. [grin] What do we do with big an' nasty in here? Can't jus' keep shootin' out it's knees.

Yeah, bullets just seem to piss it off, any better ideas? [Leans her full weight, aka not much into the door to help hold it.]

It like brains, right?

Yeah, likes 'em real nice an' juicy. [Shrug] I don't have a spare one lyin' around.

Have you seen this town? Surprised it found any.
