Summary:
“You know what we need? Shore leave.”
Having just finished up an emotionally-taxing case in upstate New York, Dean decides that the Winchester brothers deserve a little ‘quality R & R’, so he talks Sam into a pilgrimage to Vegas. A road trip along scenic, historical Route 66 lands them in a ‘living Ghost town’ in northern Arizona, but what started out as a short layover to enjoy the local entertainment quickly develops into something more sinister when a couple of teens go missing. The Winchesters join in the hunt for the missing kids and soon find themselves on a case that’s bizarre, even for them; a case that could’ve come straight out of one of the sci-fi movie matinees that Dean used to drag Sam to as a kid.

Thank you:
Thank you to missevelina for beta reading and comma wrangling. We appreciate you taking time out from studying for the LSAT to be our beta reader. Good luck and just remember; Sammy scored 174. No pressure. J
We offer our endless gratitude to cassiopeia7 for her boundless enthusiasm for this project, for just *getting* the B-movie feel we were aiming for, for her hours and hours and hours of painstaking animation work (on Live Journal the maps actually move!!!), and for sharing our love of casually slipped-in Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Tremors and Dune references. Deb, you were an absolute pleasure to work with and your artwork is simply stunning! Please, everyone check out the Art Masterpost and tell her how awesome her art is! J
Thanks are also due to reapertownusa for giving us a challenge specifically for stories that don’t focus on a romantic pairing. There seems to be less and less gen every year, so thank you for providing this outlet.

Ridiculously Beautiful Art by cassiopeia7
