Dean can't come to the phone, he's a bit tied up right now…..those Wendigos are mean like that.
***********
Darkness.
Cold.
Silence.
Broken by a groan as Dean surfaces, briefly; finds himself hanging painfully from the wrists, shoulders nearly dislocated, breathing constrained.
"Hayley…?" rasping, hoarse.
Silence. Almost.
Breathing.
A rhythmic drip, drip, drip of water onto cold stone.
The faint sound creates a raging thirst that nearly drowns the pain.
Sam will stop at nothing to find them.
He knows it and fears it – Sam on his own against the Wendigo - Dean's heart strains with anxiety.
Sam's been out of this life for so long, and has never been so alone.
Dean almost hopes the kid won't come.
