Getting snatched and dragged to some alternative reality had been one thing, but the whole body swapping thing was beyond crazy. Why did this crazy place feel the need to make him live as Charlie Bradbury? It was odd and he didn’t like it. He wanted his body back, but he would have to bitch and moan some other time. Sam was somewhere out there in a body that wasn’t his own. Not just any body, either, but a vampire’s body. Nobody should have to deal with that. Being a vampire sucked, literally.

He had waited long enough, thinking maybe Sammy would come back to the house, but he hadn’t. And he also waited long enough to hear something back from Alaric, but he never came back with the information he needed for the vervain. So, no more waiting. He’ll wing it and do whatever he needed to do to get Sammy. That’s when he contacted Charlie over the network. He was going to need her help especially if he had to be stuck in her body. Not that he thought she was weak, but yeah, not his body. And after a few replies between the two of them he told Charlie to get to the house and from there they’d make their way out into the city and look for Sam.

Charlie was still adjusting to her new body. Her very male body. The new appendage had taken a little to get used to, in fact, she wasn't sure she would ever get used to that. There was a reason Charlie was a lesbian and by its very definition, it didn't include enjoying the male anatomy. Especially when it tended to be...awake before she was in the morning and it was just gross. But, on the plus side? Girls really liked Dean's rugged good looks and Charlie had seriously considered taking a little test drive. Just for you know, scientific purposes. Why not see what it was like? But, unfortunately, before she was able to do that, they had to go look for Sam. Dean had talked to someone named Alaric, who was apparently a vampire with serious control issues, who was currently inhabiting Sam's body. Which lead them to the only conclusion.

Sam was a vampire.

Neither Dean or Charlie had heard from him and she could only assume Cas and Adam hadn't either. They had to find him, this could go really, really badly. If it hadn't already. After talking to Dean, Charlie made her way back home to meet up with him so they could go out looking for Sam. Charlie wasn't sure even where to start, but she knew Dean would know. He knew his brother, probably better than Sam even knew himself. But that was just it, right now, Sam wasn't himself. Pushing open the door, Charlie called out.

"Dean? I'm here!" She hadn't exactly told him she'd taken the Impala when she'd gone out. But, hey, the car had been here and Sam had been using it, way before Dean showed up. It was totally fair game! Plus, she was technically wearing Dean's body, so she could drive Baby if she wanted to! Maybe.

While Dean waited for Charlie to get to the house, he grabbed his tablet and started to look at a map of Portland. If Sam had any control of himself he might actually try and hide in places that were less populated. At leas that’s what Dean was hoping. If Sammy wasn’t controlling himself, he had a feeling that he and Charlie would be following a trail of bodies.

“I’m over here,” he called out from the dinning room. He had written down the last area he thought they might be able to find Sam in. He grabbed the pad of paper and stood up just as Charlie walked in. Yep, it was still bizarre having to stare at himself. He really did hope this body-swapping episode ended soon. Like, tomorrow. “I wrote down possible places we might be able to find Sammy. We should check is usual haunts too. That’s where you come here. You’ve been here longer. You’ll have a better idea where he would go when things weren’t all messed up.”

Charlie followed the sound of Dean's, or...her own voice (that was never not going to be weird) into the dining room. She lifted her hand in her usual greeting, realizing yeah, that probably looks totally weird, but oh well. Just because she was in Dean's body didn't mean she wasn't still her and she had certain mannerisms that seemed to be carrying over. And, obviously this was not the time for this stuff. They had more important things to worry about. Like Sam. Who knew what he could be out doing.

"He really didn't do much, to be honest. Work, sometimes the store, but mostly here. Especially when all the stuff showed up. If Sam's nose wasn't in a book, it wasn't anywhere." Charlie wrinkled her brow. That made much more sense in her head. Anyway. "But yeah, let's just check around. Maybe he's hiding out, Dean. So he won't hurt anyone." She said, as they started towards the front door. She knew her friend was worried and she hated it. Dean and Sam were like brothers to her, Adam too now, since they'd been here. But her and Dean, well, they'd always been close.

Pulling open the front door, Charlie fished the keys to the Impala out of her pocket and held them up with a sheepish grin, which probably looked really out of place on Dean's face. "You probably want these, huh?"

“You’re not going around and greeting people like that, are you?” Dean wasn’t even sure why he asked. He almost didn’t want to know the answer to his question. Charlie doing her normal geek thing was fine, that was who she was, but not when she was in his body!

“So what you’re basically telling me is that Sam is a big bore and has no life. I guess that could be a good thing right now.” It just meant there were fewer places to check out, which could be a good thing or a bad thing. “That’s why I think he’ll head towards areas where there aren’t a lot of people.” He didn’t want Sam to do anything he might regret once this swapping business was over with. And he sure as hell didn’t want some lynch mob coming after him either.

“I do,” he said as he grabbed the keys from Charlie and made his way to the Impala. If he could hug the car, he probably would. It had been way too damn long since he got behind the wheel of his car.

If they didn’t have to go and track down Sammy, he could seriously just sit there for a while and listen to the purr of the engine, but he couldn’t. And once Charlie was in, he was pulling out of the drive way and heading down the road. “Here,” he handed over the paper with all of the places he thought they could find Sam, “If you can think of anywhere else, let me know.”

Charlie gave a sheepish grin, which probably looked funny on Dean's face, but hey, what did he expect? It wasn't like she asked to be in this body! She liked hers just fine, thank you very much! But Dean glaring at her, in her body, made her chuckle a little. She couldn't help it!

She decided to just nod her agreement at his comments about Sam and hand over the keys, even though she really wanted to drive. He hadn't really had a chance to, since he had barely arrived when he suddenly found himself in her body and she in his. Portland definitely kept things interesting, if nothing else.

Taking the paper, Charlie looked over it and stared out the window for a few minutes trying to think of where Sam might be. Something caught her eye, a flash of flannel heading into the woods and she swore it was Alaric. Or well, Sam, wearing Alaric's meat suit anyway. "Wait. Stop! I think I saw him. Right over there. See that smoke coming up through the trees? There might be like, a cabin or something."

It was a good thing that Charlie had been there with him or he would have missed Sam completely. It wasn’t easy trying to look for his brother, in a different body, while trying to keep his eyes on the road. “I don’t see him,” he said as he glanced in the direction Charlie had said she’d seen Sam in. Just because he didn’t see anything, it didn’t mean she didn’t see him. He made a quick u-turn and drove up to he edge of the trees and stopped. There was no road going into the woods and he wasn’t going to damage the car by driving through there. “Looks like we’re walking.”

With Charlie by his side they started walking. Hopefully it was Sam that Charlie had seen and hopefully they weren’t too far from him. He didn’t want to run around after some hyped up vampire version of his brother. “Sam,” he called out, “you need to stop hiding.”
