Set six months after Dean died and Sam needs to find away to move on with his life until he can bring dean back.
The cold winter breeze sent a chill down Sam Winchester's spine. He sat on the hood of the impala and wrapped his arms around his chest. It had been six months since Dean's death and the hurt just wouldn't go away. Lilith's trail had run cold and Sam was running out of options. There was nothing he could do short of walking into hell himself, but he needed the colt for that. He still had Ruby's dagger but it wouldn't be enough. Sure it helped him kill all sorts of creatures ranging from demons to vampires. All in all Sam had saved a lot of people but the whole in his chest was getting deeper.
Sam reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out Dean's necklace. He traced its outline with his index finger and sighed. He clutched the necklace in his palm and stuffed it back into his pocket. It was the one thing of Dean's he could bear to keep, that and the impala. Everywhere he went something reminded him of Dean and it was slowly eating away at him.
"Dean I know you can't hear me but I'm lost... okay man seriously I don't have clue what to do, this life it's... It's getting to me. There is so much evil in this world I'm practically drowning in it. I can't do this on my own. I can't believe you did this, you're my big brother," Tears welled up in Sam's eyes. He fought them back and hopped into the driver's seat of the impala. It was time to see Bobby.
It was midnight when Sam reached Bobby's house. He pulled up in the driveway and turned off the ignition. Sam brushed his fingers through his hair and pulled himself out of the impala. He hadn't talked to Bobby in Months. In fact he hadn't talked to anyone in months. The last time he and Bobby had spoken it hadn't gone well. It was around the time Lilith's trail had gone cold. 'Wonder if he'll even want to speak to me' Sam thought. This hadn't been the easiest thing, to admit he needed help. The lights in Bobby's house flickered to life as Sam walked up the porch steps. Sam saw the curtains in the living room move ever so slightly. A smirk worked its way across his face. Bobby opened the heavy wooden door but kept the screen door locked. His face was contorted with a mixture of anger and sadness.
"Come on Bobby let me in," it irked Sam how desperate he sounded.
"Boy, I thought you were dead... the whole self destructive pattern you had going. I thought the next time I saw you would be at your own funeral." Bobby was trying to resist giving in to Sam but the look in the poor boys eyes was killing him.
"Yer, I'm sorry Bobby... It's just so hard, you know. First with Dean, then we can't find Ruby, then Lilith's trail running cold and the job. Man it just all got too much and I can't do this on my own. Bobby what I'm trying to say here is can you help me?" With that Bobby broke and opened the screen door.
"Sam I can't stay mad at you, but if you ever get like that again I swear to god I will shoot you. You hear me?" Bobby cracked a smile but Sam knew he was serious.
"I hear you Bobby" A small smile flickered across Sam's face. He felt like maybe he wasn't alone after all. "So, any ideas on what I should do next?" Sam took a swig of beer as Bobby thought for a minute.
"Well, Sam I think if you're ready... there's this job up in Wisconsin. A shape shifter is wrecking havoc on the locals. Bank robberies and murders and someone has to stop it. Sam you've dealt with your fair share of Shape Shifters. Do you think you can handle it?" Sam nodded. A shape shifter was easy, simply silver bullet to the heart and boom.
"Yer, sure. Where a bout's in Wisconsin is it?" Bobby gave Sam all the information in the case folder. Turned out a hunter was already working the job but was making no progress. Sam felt bad about taking this hunters case but they needed result's. The hunter was an amateur, a young woman about 23-24, same age as Sam. 'Hopefully I can teach this girl a thing or two,' Sam thought. The job should be easy but with an amateur tagging along maybe it wouldn't.
