Summary: It's just Dean's luck to meet a witch with a penchant for cute testudines.


Sam was frantic. It had been over an hour since Dean had disappeared. Although the water-witch had been most emphatically dead when Sam had found her, there was no sign of his brother.

At the edge of the lake, Sam ran a hand through his hair, close to despairing. An odd rustling sound in the dead leaf mulch attracted his attention. He moved towards it, more cautious than hopeful.

On its back, its four legs kicking futilely at the air, was a small turtle. With Dean's furious eyes.

Well, crap. Another curse.

Righted, the turtle snapped angrily when Sam laughed.
