The first word that came to Dean's mind when he woke up: Dark.
That was all there seemed to be, stretching on and on forever. Obviously, it couldn't go on forever, but the darkness combined with the silence made the space seem like it could. He shifted, sitting up, only to find shackles on his wrists binding them to the wall above his head. How he'd missed that until now, Dean didn't know. Maybe the pounding in his skull had something to do with it.
"Hello?" he called. His breath hitched in his chest as he started to panic. What if he was alone here? What if whoever had chained him up had decided to leave him to starve to death? What if? What if? What if?
He was saved by a deep, gravelly voice calling back: "Dean?"
"Cas?"
The angel shifted, his own chains clanking at the movement, "Dean, are you injured?"
"Not badly," he answered. "Is Sam there?"
"No, but he's probably fine. He was at the motel," Cas reassured. Dean heard him whimper. "Dean, while you were unconscious, I think whoever is holding us captive did something to my wings."
"What do you mean?"
"I am in immense pain."
Suddenly, fluorescent lights flooded the space with harsh white light. They revealed a small room, like a storage unit, with a long rail extending around the perimeter. What was really terrifying, though, was Cas.
His wings were visible.
If wasn't so scared by the whole situation, Dean would've found them beautiful. They were jet black with an iridescent sheen. Each feather was a slightly different colour, though. Some were dark blues and purples, others were completely black or grey.
This was wrong. Cas had already told him multiple times that his wings existed in a whole other dimension. They weren't supposed to exist in this one, and the fact that they seemed to have been forced out was worrying.
The unit's door raised up. It was nighttime?
"Hello boys."
Hello my darlings!
Unfortunately, I'm having a large bit of writer's block with my two main stories, so this is kind of an "I'm not dead" piece. It will be a two-shot at least, maybe a couple more parts than that, but this one won't go on forever like Stay and Wayward Child. I'm about halfway through chapters for both of them and they're just not coming out the way I want them to, so please please please bear with me! I'm trying.
As always, don't forget to favourite, follow and review! Reviews make me happier than a snail with a jetpack! (ya know, so they can go faster)
