House of Wax belongs to Warner Brothers and Dark Castle Entertain and Supernatural belongs to the CW and Eric Kripke. Both series slightly AU.

"Man, I can't believe we came back here," Carly stated.

"I'm gonna burn this place to the ground. You guys can leave," Sam told her.

"No we can't. Whatever else you may think of me, you should know that I'm loyal to my friends," Nick responded.

"Man. You and Dean--you're both like Pitt Bulls," Sam muttered. Nick was about to make a retort when they heard the door open. Sam quickly motioned for them to hide, and the three did so. Vincent walked into the museum and looked around. Where were they? Hearing a slight shuffling, he spun around. His eyes perused the room. There was something in here that didn't belong, but what? Then, he saw it: the trapdoor leading to his and Bo's bedroom was opened. Eyes flashing, he went down. Hearing the footsteps, Carly shrank even more into her hiding spot and listened as Vincent came into the room. Please don't find me, please don't find me, please don't find me, she thought. The footsteps came closer and Carly tried not to make a sound. The door opened and Carly gasped. Vincent bent down to grab her and she lunged at him with the knife, striking him in the wrists. The man howled in pain and she dashed past him. He spun around, grabbed one of the poles attached to the bed and started after her.

"CARLY!" Both Sam and Nick ran from their hiding places to come to the girl's aid. Nick reached her first and jumped on top of her as the man struck. The boy screamed as the pole went through his shoulder blade.

"CARLY, RUN!" he urged. Still holding the knife, Carly did as she was told. Sam came out with the rifle in his hand and shot at Vincent, who threw Nick aside. Nick looked at Sam.

"What are you--?" he began to ask.

"Get Carly to safety. I'll be right behind you," Sam interrupted. Nick scrambled to his feet and did as he was told. Sam let out another shot and Vincent went down. The hunter pulled the trigger again. However, this time, there was only a click. With a curse, he threw the gun aside, and yanked another pole from the wall. He and Vincent continued fighting; resulting in some candles being knocked over and the room was soon filled with flames.

"Where's Sam?" Carly wondered when she saw Nick.

"He's coming," was Nick's answer. The twins hurried through the labyrinth, until they reached what appeared to be a solid wall of wax. Frantically, they began digging.

"Faster, faster!" Nick encouraged.

"Nick, I smell smoke!" Carly cried.

"Keep digging!" Nick yelled. Vincent lunged at Sam, pinning him to the ground. Sam strained under the weight and raised his weapon just in time to keep himself from being decapitated. After a few minutes of struggling, Sam knocked Vincent's pole away and then quickly drove his own bar into the man's chest. With a gurgling sound, the man fell to the ground. Sam pushed the man off of him and hurried in the direction that Nick and Carly had fled. He quickly found them clawing at the wax and joined them.

"Faster, faster!" Nick urged. Finally, the hole was big enough for them to get through. The trio jumped out, and once they were on the ground, watched as the House of Wax melted into oblivion. Minutes later, paramedics and police were there, and tending to the trio's wounds.

"How could anyone not know about this?" Carly demanded.

"This town's been abandoned for ten years. In fact, if we hadn't seen the smoke, we wouldn't have even known you were here," an officer answered. Sam shook his head in disbelief. How could anyone be so clueless? He was about to voice the question when he heard a familiar engine pull up.

"Bobby," he sighed in relief, sliding down from the ambulance. As he hobbled toward the truck, he faintly heard Nick saying something about Dalton's camera.

"Sam?" Bobby Singer questioned as the boy came up to the man.

"Bobby. Man, am I glad to see you," Sam stated.

"What the heck happened to you?" Bobby wondered.

"Couple of freaks stranded us in the town. Only me, Nick, and Carly made it out," Sam answered.

"It was humans?" Bobby asked in surprise. Sam nodded. Then, "I've already been checked out. Just let me say good-bye to Nick and Carly and then we can bolt." Before Bobby could respond, Sam turned on his heel and limped back to his friends. As he did so, he noticed something in Nick's hands.

"What's that?" Sam asked.

"Dalton's camera," Nick replied.

"You stole it?" Carly questioned.

"More like liberated it," Nick responded.

"You crazy sneak thief," Sam fondly accused. The trio laughed.
"So…is it over?" Carly wondered.

"Yeah, it's over," Sam replied.

"I guess that means you want this back," Carly stated, starting to hand him the knife.

"Nah. Keep it. You handle it better anyway," Sam told her. She chuckled and hugged him.

"Thank you…for everything," she whispered in his ear. The hunter scoffed.

"Don't thank me. I nearly got you guys killed. I got your friends killed," he retorted.

"Hey, if it wasn't for you, we'd both probably be dead…and we're not gonna forget that," Nick responded. He put out a hand and Sam took it. "See ya 'round, brother," he said, drawing the hunter into a half hug.

"Yeah. See ya guys," he answered. Then, he pulled out of the embrace and headed for the truck.

"How you holdin' up, Kiddo?" Bobby questioned.

"Let's get out of here, Bobby…and never come back," Sam replied as he got into the truck. Bobby got in, started the engine, and drove off. Nick and Carly were silent as the ambulance started down the street. Through the doors, Carly saw the guy that had given her and Sam a lift. He waved eerily and she leaned into her twin as the ambulance went down the road.
