At a crossroads, Samuel Winchester collapses to his knees and begs a demon to make a deal.

The demon says no.

The demon tells him that he has nothing they want, nothing to offer, nothing left with which to bargain.

The demon laughs and pats the top of his head.

The demon smirks.

At a crossroads, Samuel Winchester looks up, determined and wrathful, and commands a demon to return his brother.

The demon says no.

The demon tells him that he is nothing, just a little boy who shouldn’t play with Daddy’s weapons in case he gets hurt.

The demon coos at him, chortles a platitude that means nothing.

The demon smiles, sashaying around him, eyes as crimson as the blood that welled in Dean’s mouth and spilled over his lips, down his chin.

At a crossroads, Samuel Winchester rises to his feet. He stares at the demon and demands to speak with someone who has the authority to grant his wish.

The demon says no.

The demon tells him to go back to the impala and wear Dean’s necklace because his brother is gone, too far away to return.

The demon mocks him by commenting that Dean’s too warm to want to leave.

The demon caresses his cheek and gently kisses the tears that rest there.

At a crossroads, Samuel Winchester whispers that there is but one chance left.

The demon says no.

The demon tells him there are no chances left at all.

The demon reveals that all is going according to plan, his brother burning and him alone on Earth, ripe for the plucking.

The demon cackles, hands gesturing to the world around them, waiting for a plunderer.

At a crossroads, Samuel Winchester bows his head and is done trying to deal.

The demon dies saying no.

There's something interesting in this, especially read alongside "There is not another like you in the world" where Sam embraces his innate powers after the Michael and Lucifer. This Sam is a bit scarier, and I can't see his story ending in the sunlight with Dean, but I like reading him.

Thank you!

God, Sam. Ouch.

Thank you for reading!

Poor, poor Sam. And poor Dean too. Things didn't go exactly as Dean planned, did they? And to think that Dean thought Sam would have the better chance of living a normal life without the other brother. He was so, so wrong ...

[tigriswolf]

They could never live normal lives.

Thank you!

so Dean's still gone ?
Oh poor Sammy *pets him*

[tigriswolf]

Yup, Dean's dead and burning in Hell.

Thank you for reading!
