He can’t find Sam. Left alone for a minute—just a second, not long at all—and he’s gone. Lost. Dean can’t find him. 

Dean searches the parking lot and the street, scours the car. Sam’s gone.

Last time they were apart, Sam met up with an evil bitch. Sam needs him, to stay safe.

Doesn’t he? Dean sure as hell needs him—doesn’t feel complete without him. The Stanford years sucked. Out loud.

He can’t find Sam. Where the hell’s he gone? He knows better than to wander off while they’re working a case.

So he didn’t wander off. Something took him. Snatched him up and vanished without a trace.

Shit. Sammy’s gone. The missing people are never found, not even bodies…

… Sammy. He needs to find Sammy, right the fuck now.

He asks everyone inside and out, walks a mile in every direction, calls Sam’s phone a hundred times.

Dean knows, though. Sam’s gone. The thing that took Jenkins, the monster with a whining growl, has Sam.

It’s personal, now. Dean will find this thing and kill it dead. Destroy it, utterly and forever.

He needs help, though. He notices the traffic camera and gets an idea.

So just how many ficlets have you written concerning the Benders? ;)

This one's a delight, too, though. Oh, poor, poor Dean...how does your facade fall when a member of your family's in question!

[tigriswolf]

More than a couple. It's not even my favorite episode, but just something about it... I've been there, you know? When tigris_lilsis wasn't where she said she'd be, and wouldn't answer her phone... I think JAck did a wonderful job portraying the terror.

Thank you!

*hugs*
Pesky things, them siblings?

I presume she was found not really worse for wear?

Thankfully, our 'missing persons' have been all along the lines of "the armchair's snoring".
Though I've managed to scare the dear hubby by wandering off a few times. ;)

[tigriswolf]

Oh, yeah, she was fine. Just wandered off with a friend and forgotten her phone.

*hee* Armchair snoring?

[sadelyrate.livejournal.com]

Friends are a distraction sometimes. Good thing the story had a happy ending, though. :)

Our eldest slipped from our sights a few years back, and the whole extended family was mobilized until someone realized one of the armchairs was snoring. Turned out he'd fallen asleep, curled up and under a blanket. So, yeah... considering how close we are to the sea, it served as a scare, certainly.

[tigriswolf]

Oh, good point about being close to the water. I can see where that would be scary.

Dean sure as hell needs him—doesn’t feel complete without him. The Stanford years sucked. Out loud.

I think this part pretty much nails it. Without a Sam, there really can't be a Dean.

Excellent job. :)
