When they arrived at the entrance to the cave a few minutes later, they all piled out of the car. Dean and Sam grabbed some weapons from the backseat.

"Here, man." Sam tossed Clark a gun.

Clark caught it easily and looked at Chloe.

"That's what people that can't bench press tractors use." She whispered, grinning.

He nodded his head and returned her smile.

"Let’s go." Dean said, walking towards the entrance to the cave. Sam ran to catch up with his brother and fell in step beside him.

"So, you actually saw this thing?" Clark asked, glancing at Chloe, as they followed Sam and Dean into the cave.

"Yeah. I did. Clark, it looked like Freddy Krueger. It was creepy." Chloe answered, as she walked beside him.

"The glove guy from the horror movies?" Clark said, looking at her in confusion.

"Yeah." Chloe sighed. "Dean said it can take any form it wants to." She looked around at the walls of the cave. "I've been in here tons of times with you, but it has never frightened me before."

Clark stopped and allowed the others to pull ahead a few steps. Placing a hand on Chloe's arm, he stopped her from walking. "I'm not going to let anything happen to you." He whispered, glancing at the cut on her head from the night that Dean and Sam had saved her.

"I know that." Chloe smiled at him.
