THE COLOURS OF A NIGHTMARE

WOW: stream. Spoilers for 10.17. Those with the Mark of Cain never sleep easy.

How I would have liked to see Dean's nightmare unfold ...

Disclaimer: Do I own him? No I do not!

Red

A gushing tide of crimson, streaming around the hilt of the first blade; staining Dean's hand; staining his soul.

Wet.

Hot.

Sam's life blood pouring away.

Black.

Horror and despair.

A terrible realisation of what he's become.

Dean's broken and corrupted heart.

His desperate cries disappearing into the night.

Grey.

The end of everything.

An empty world.

White noise:

Heart pounding, pulse racing, the rasping cadence of desperate, gasping breaths.

A voice.

Sam's voice; coaxing, comforting.

Drawing Dean back.

Back to wakefulness. Back from the darkness.

Back to the best colours of all

Blue and gold

His brother's eyes
