God is

o0o

It's dawn. The sun is not rising. There is a shadow where the sun used to be. There is a shadow, deep and dark and swallowing up the whole wide world, and people are running, people are screaming, people are praying.

It's dawn. It's a cold dawn, blood on the air and in the water and soaking into the ground.

It's dawn, and the only light across the Earth is fire billowing from the deep.

o0o

God is the Father

o0o

Those who survive the first wave don't have long. Without the light of the sun, everything dies. The oceans freeze where they don't burn from hellfire; plants wither and air vanishes into dying lungs.

Everywhere, people beg for salvation. Wring their hands, hold their loved ones. Flee to the churches, to the synagogues, to the mosques, to the temples, to the mountains.

It doesn't matter where they go. A shadow has eaten the sun and Hell is scorching the Earth.

o0o

God is the Father and

o0o

Hunters don't pray. They hunt and they fight and they die, ripped apart by the first of all demons, by the Prince of Lies.

Everywhere, there is Death, on his pale horse, killing with a word and a glance, collecting souls for his lord, the one light left, the glorious and unforgiving MorningStar.

His brothers are by his side, Pestilence and Famine and War. It is the end, dawn with no sun, and a shadow takes the sky.

o0o

God is the Father(why have you forsaken me?)

o0o

Demons do not need air or water or shelter. Demons do not need food or sleep.

Demons take the Earth and rebuild it with the bones of all the life that came before(after) them, fashioned with malice and greed, and in the center, in Hell's gaping maw, there is a palace of black crystal and pale flawless ivory.

The palace is painted red with angelic blood.

o0o

God is the Father and fathers(is it finished?)

o0o

None of his demons dare speak his name. They whisper, mutter, whimper where they think he cannot hear.

He hears everything. He is everything. Earth is a stepping stone from Hell to the sky, and soon he will ascend that final plane and shatter the last of all resistance.

He is the MorningStar, the greatest and brightest, once favored and now feared.

There is no God, he tells his demons and devils and hordes of monsters salivating for Heaven's gold. There is no God. There is only a lie, only an empty throne, no one home and no one to stop me.

o0o

God is (not)

o0o

A new sun dawns, new creatures roam, and the demons plot amongst themselves, hoping to take power and make the world completely their own.

It isn't even a challenge when he turns them to blood and drinks them down.

He still has not taken Heaven. No one whispers anymore, and no one dares ask him why he's waiting.

o0o

God is (nowhere and nothing, Father, my Father)

o0o

He sits on what was once a beach. Water no longer exists, or sand, or salt air. The world is a barren wasteland.

Hell on Earth is nothingness. The monsters he reigns over no longer have any fun because there is nothing and nobody to torture.

The irony would make him chuckle if he remembered how.

o0o

God is (gone, forgotten us, gone gone, my Father why?)

o0o

He leaves the palace. Wanders over dust, searching for something eons gone. Eons out of reach. Too many mistakes, too many false friends trusted, too many wrong choices made and wrong paths trod.

He has not taken Heaven because the souls of those gone still reside there. All the souls not in Hell are in Heaven.

He will not take Heaven because there is hope left, so long as Dean is still there.

o0o

God is the Father and fathers always die.

o0o

In Heaven, he waits.

Sam will come, he knows. Sam will come and Dean will open the gates wide.
