Author's note: I love Alice in Wonderland and I love Supernatural so I've always wanted to create a story combining them and was inspired even more so by the upcoming film with Johnny Depp who I am a HUGE fan of. I haven't seen the Tim Burton film yet, but I've read the books and seen the Disney movie. I wanted to start the story before I see the new film and put my own supernatural ideas into it beforehand. I hope you all enjoy it and are not offended this is just my take it I'm not trying to copy the other versions, but I can't help being inspired by the show and the Alice in Wonderland stories. So this is just my weird take on it so I hope you enjoy and please feel free to leave comments.

Chapter 1: Beware the Jabberwocky
Date: March 5, 2010
Scene: Allen Park, Michigan
Alice Cooper walks through the park before his concert in Detroit.
Alice sings:
"I used to be such a sweet, sweet thing
Until they got a hold of me
I opened doors for little old ladies
I helped the blind to see
I got no friends 'cause they read the papers
They can't be seen with me and I'm getting shot down
And I'm feeling mean
No more Mister Nice Guy
No more Mister Clean
No more Mister Nice Guy
They say he's sick, he's obscene"
A little blonde girl about ten years old walks through the park skipping along singing a poem to herself.
"Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch"
Alice stops he recognizes the poem and admires that the little girl knows it. He finds her to be adorable looking in her little blue schoolgirl uniform.
Alice Cooper: "Hello, little girl."
The little blonde girl: "Hello, Alice."
Alice Cooper stares at the little girl in shock and confusion.
Alice Cooper: "How do you know my name?"
The little blonde girl laughs then smirks, suddenly her eyes turn white.
The girl holds out her hand and a bright white light glows from her palm.
Alice Cooper screams and disappears into the light
Scene: On the Highway to Hell.
Sam: "Turn that music down will ya!?"
Dean sings
"I'm gonna sign my name
to full confession.
It seems the woman I loved last night
belongs to another man.
They like to take you home;
they like to purr and tease you.
but I'm a passionate man,
and I couldn't leave her alone.
'Cause you are damned if you do,
damned if you don't;
damned if you will,
damned if you won't.
Sometimes they look so good,
But don't you let' em deceive ya.
'Cause then you find out that they got
some kind of a venomous mind.
And the thing that's worse
is that it all seems worth it.
I'm still a passionate man,
and she wouldn't leave me alone.
If you think that being a stud is easy,
well, now don't ask me, boys;
I wouldn't know.
I'm a little slow.
And you are damned if you do,
and damned if you don't;
you are damned if you will,
and your damned if you won't.
If you think that being a stud is easy,
well, now don't ask me, boys;
I wouldn't know.
I'm a little slow.
Gonna sign my name
to full confession.
It seems the woman I loved last night
belongs to another man.
They like to take you home;
they like to purr and tease you.
and I'm a passionate man,
and I couldn't leave her alone.
'Cause you are damned if you do,
damned if you don't;
damned if you will,
damned if you won't.
damned if you do,
damned if you don't;
damned if you will,
damned if you won't.
Dean: "I'll be damned Sam."
Sam shakes his head in annoyance with his brother.
Sam: "You will be damned for sure if you don't turn that damn music down!"
Dean turns the rock music down a bit.
Dean frowns
Dean: "What crawled up your butt and died?"
Sam: "Look, I'm just tired okay and I'm trying to work here."
Sam yawns as he flips through their dad's journal
Dean sighs
Dean: "Well we'll be there soon just another hour or so to Detroit."
Sam: "You sure it's a good idea to be heading this way? What about Lucifer isn't Detroit the last place we should be going for a hunt right now?"
Dean: "That son of a bitch could find us anywhere if he wants to Sam; I'm not going to stop doing the job because of him, besides the devil is usually in Georgia this time of year anyway."
Sam rolls his eyes at his brother's bad joke.
Sam: "Well Bobby said a shape shifter that fits Lilith's M.O. is there so we at least need to check it out."
Dean: "You don't think it's really her do you?"
Sam: "Nah, I bleed her dry there's no way she'd have survived what I did to her."
Dean: "I hope your right Sam; I hate to think she escaped hell again."
Sam looks a bit worried, but decides that it just can't be Lilith it must be some kind of shape shifter or some other creature posing as Lilith.
Scene: Bobby's house
Timeline: 2am, Saturday
Bobby wakes up in a cold sweat after having a terrible nightmare.
Bobby sits up in bed and breathes heavily trying to process it all.
Castiel appears in Bobby's bedroom, but hides in the shadows because he doesn't look like himself. Bobby can't see him clearly because it's too dark, but he can hear noises.
Bobby: "What the hell!? Whose there?"
Bobby pulls out a gun from under his pillow and fires into the open room in the direction of the sound terrified its some sort of evil creature come to kill him.
Castiel is hit but it doesn't hurt him one bit.
Castiel: "Bobby it's me. Don't shoot!"
Bobby: "What the hell Castiel! What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Castiel: "I need your help Bobby. Sam and Dean are in terrible danger."
Bobby rolls his eyes
Bobby: "They are always in terrible danger what is it now?"
Castiel walks over closer to Bobby's bedside.
Bobby turns over to turn on the lamp on his nightstand to see the angel better.
Castiel: "No don't!"
Castiel uses his power to blow the light bulb out so it doesn't come on, but sparks fly out of the lamp as it shatters in pieces.
Bobby: "Are you nuts angel? What was that for?"
Castiel: "You can't look at me I'm not in my human vessel right now. You have to come with me before it's too late."
Bobby: "Too late for what?"
Castiel: "I'll explain it all when we get there."
Bobby: "Get where? What are you blabbering about angel?"
Castiel: "Wonderland!"
Bobby stares into the darkness totally confused by this.
Castiel reaches out a finger to touch Bobby's head and Bobby notices right away that it is not a human finger, but a strange tentacle fuzzy looking finger like that of a bug or creature. Bobby becomes incredibly scared for a split second of what Castiel has become, but before he can speak or react to his appearance Castiel touches Bobby's forehead and they both disappear to Wonderland.
Scene: The Queen of Hearts Castle
The Castle looks like it is made of a giant metal deck of cards and is surrounded by a gigantic maze of gardens stretching out across her kingdom for miles and miles.
The Queen of Hearts is wearing her long red dressing robe with black and gold hearts all over it. Her bedroom is covered in mirrors and she sits on a fluffy cushioned stool in front of the vanity mirror brushing her long dark hair.
The Queen of Hearts: "Knave!! Knave!!"
The Knave of Hearts comes into her room at her request.
The Knave of Hearts bows to her.
The Knave of Hearts: "Your majesty how may I be of service to you?"
The Queen of Hearts: "Bring me the King! I want to speak with him now."
The Knave of Hearts doesn't speak to her, he just nods and stares at her for a moment longingly. He desperately wishes he could touch her beautiful hair and caress her supple skin. Instead he steps backwards quickly and exits the room.
The Knave of Hearts is dressed in a suit of arms, his bronzed chest plate has the symbol of the Jack of Hearts on the front and he carries a long sword one capable of killing anything in Wonderland even angels and demons.
The Knave of Hearts quickly makes his way down the long corridor, down the stairs past the great room towards the fireplace where he changes the time on the clock above the mantle of the fireplace. When he does this the fire goes out and behind the hearth opens a secret door leading down a passageway. The Knave of Hearts enters the passageway and heads towards the dungeon. He can hear the loud roaring of the Jabberwocky as he approaches its underground cave near the dungeon.
He reaches the guardroom in front of the dungeon and finds two lazy guards, a pair of threes that have fallen asleep while playing poker the night before.
The Knave of Hearts groans and rolls his eyes angry that they are asleep on the job.
The Knave of Hearts: "Wake up you fools! Let me in! The Queen is waiting!"
The guards stir from their slumber and see him standing before them.
They both become terrified of his presence knowing he has the sword capable of cutting their heads off which is the only way to kill someone in Wonderland by removing their head from their body other than that everyone lives forever here. There are only three swords like this in Wonderland. The Knave has one, one is with an angel and the other is being protected by the Bandersnatch.
Both guards stand up in attention and put their hands to their heart decorating their chest plates. The Knave of Hearts grows restless and more inpatient.
Knave of Hearts: "Open it now before I kill you!"
One of the guards fumbles with the keys as he quickly tries to find the right one to open the dungeon's massive bronzed door.
The door creaks open and the Knave of Hearts removes his sword from its holster around his waist and starts twirling it as if he were a Samurai
The guards stand in fear of what he will do to them.
The Knave of Hearts slices the sword through the air getting closer and closer to them, but before he cuts off their heads he stops and says
The Knave of Hearts: "You're both fired now get out!"
The guards don't hesitate they run away immediately back out to the gardens to join the other demonic cards that spend most of their time pruning the Queen's garden, painting the flowers with their own blood and guarding the castle.
The Knave of Hearts walks through the door and down another rocky stairwell that leads underground until he arrives at the King's throne room.
The Knave of Hearts opens the door to the throne room and there is John Winchester dressed in a fancy robe and kingly attire tied to the throne with several golden ropes.
King John: "Leave me alone Knave!"
The Knave of Hearts smirks at the King then regrettably bows to him.
The Knave of Hearts puts his sword back in its holster then stands up to speak.
The Knave of Hearts: "Your majesty, the Queen has requested you to her chamber."
King John: "I don't give a shit! Let me out now!"
The Knave of Hearts wants to rip John's head off with his sword, but knows the Queen would kill him if he did so the Knave tries to smile at the King.
The Knave of Hearts: "I must take you to her; she is ready to tell you why you are here and what she wants from you."
King John: "I know why I'm here. I don't need to see her! That bitch is using me as bait. She thinks she can use me to get to Sam. She's wrong and I will kill her myself for this you go back and tell her so!"
The Knave of Hearts feels his blood boiling and suddenly his eyes turn totally black.
King of John: "Demon!"
The Knave of Hearts: "Yes. My name is Jack. I am the Jack of Hearts and I am here to serve the Queen. I love her. I have always loved her and I would gladly kill you and your son if only to have her, but she doesn't want me right now she wants you! You will come now!"
The Knave of Hearts takes out his sword and swiftly cuts King John's rope.
John doesn't hesitate he just barrels right into the Knave knocking him over. John swiftly punches him. The Knave of Hearts quickly gets the upper hand wrestling and punching King John until John is knocked unconscious.
The Knave considers for a moment plunging his sword right into John's chest just to hurt him, but instead picks John up over his shoulder and drags his limp body all the way back to the Queen of Hearts Room.
Scene: The Queen of Hearts Bedroom
John wakes up in pain. His head hurts, but he manages to sit up and realizes he's lying in the Queen's huge bed. John pulls back the curtains around the Queen's bed to look out into the room for her.
John looks around the dark room, but sees no one at first. He considers trying to escape, but when he reaches the door he finds he is locked inside her chamber. He tries a window, but it also doesn't budge.
John goes back over to the bed and sits down he feels a soft breeze on his neck which he finds startling since none of the windows are open and there is no fan in the room then he feels the Queen's lips at his ear whispering to him.
John turns his head, but she is invisible he can't see her in the bed though she whispers into his ear as her wind tingles the hair on the back of his neck.
Queen of Hearts: "Don't be afraid of me, I am your Queen."
John: "I don't want you! Get away from me!"
Queen of Hearts: "But, you want your son?"
John: "You leave Sam out of this!"
Queen of Hearts: "I can't. He is coming here. He will be here soon to find me."
John: "That's impossible! No one just comes to Wonderland they have to be taken. That's how I got here. Have you kidnapped him too?"
Queen of Hearts: "I won't have too, he will come and he will try to rescue you. I will let you be together for awhile give him some time, but then I will introduce him to the Jabberwocky and he will not be able to resist me."
John: "No! I'll kill you!"
John feels the faint brush of the Queen's lips on his face he tries to move away, but he fears the worst! He fears the Jabberwocky and what it will do to Sam or worst yet what his son will do with the Queen.
The invisible Queen disappears from the room leaving John trapped and alone.
Scene: The Winchester's Hotel Room
Dean is rummaging through his bag taken out used weapons preparing to clean them.
Sam opens the window and takes a deep breath as the cool wind blows on his face a bit.
Dean: "Close the window its cold in here."
Sam rolls his eyes, but he closes it and locks it back. Then he grabs a bottle of salt and pours it along the window sill.
Dean doesn't know why, but he can't seem to get his temperature regulated ever since he came back from hell. Now he feels either too hot or too cold most of the time even during nice weather days.
Dean thinks to himself, I don't understand why I am so cold all the time it sucks really, but at least there are plenty of blankets at this hotel.
Sam: "So what are you doing tonight?"
Dean: "Probably get a drink down at some local pub."
Sam sighs and puts his hands in his pockets.
Sam: "Yeah that's what I figured you'd say."
Dean: "Well there's not much else to do until Bobby calls with more information about the shape shifter. He'll probably call early tomorrow morning."
Sam: "It's just when I stopped to use the bathroom in the lobby some lady gave me these."
Sam pulls a pair of tickets out of his pocket.
Dean looks at the tickets and reads the name Alice Cooper and today date's.
Dean puts down the gun he's cleaning and excitedly grabs the tickets from Sam.
Dean: "Are you serious? Alice Cooper tickets! I love No More Mr. Nice Guy! Hell Yes! Someone just gave these to you?"
Sam shrugs not sure why.
Sam: "Yeah well I thought it was strange. I was going to throw them away, but I figured you'd want to go maybe take some chick from the pub."
Dean: "No way dude! You're coming! You got see Alice man, he's awesome live!"
Sam: "Dean, you know you and I don't really have the same taste in music."
Dean: "Yeah I have good taste and you don't, but nevertheless you're coming!"
Sam: "I don't get it, why do you want me to come so badly? I figured I be doing you a favor giving you these tickets and telling you to take a girl. If you pick up some girl at a bar and show her your extra ticket you'll probably get laid after the concert. If I go I'll just be bored. My ears and head will be ringing from all that smoke and loud noise. I don't really want to go."
Dean frowns
Dean: "It's not noise you goober, its Classic Rock! It'll be Awesome and the only reason I'm taken you is because I'm broke and you have the last of the money. I can't take some girl to the concert with no money she'll think I'm a total loser that I can't even buy her a t-shirt or drink or something. Besides you're the one who got the tickets in the first place so you should come Sammy."
Sam raises his eyebrows.
Sam: "So you want me to come so I can pay for everything too after I just gave you free tickets to see him?"
Dean smirks
Dean: "That's the plan! Now come on lets get ready the concert starts in an hour."
Dean goes into the bathroom with the tickets very happy to take his shower and get dressed to rock out.
Sam sighs and goes back over to the window and reopens it letting in some cold Detroit air.
Sam thinks to himself, I must honestly have the most dysfunctional relationship with my brother ever; this codependency of ours is getting really weird now. I mean first he doesn't want to go out and get laid on Valentine's Day or even eat much anymore, now he wants to take me to a rock concert instead of a hot girl. Yeah well maybe I can sneak out during intermission or something and go sit in the car. I better bring my laptop just in case. This is going to be so boring.
Sam takes another deep breath of fresh air then closes the window again as he turns away from it, fog appears on the window leaving a word etched in fog that Sam fails to see as he prepares for the concert the word is B E W A R E.
Scene: A sunny side beach in Wonderland.
Bobby wakes up on the beach feeling pretty groggy and sickly as this is his first time being orbed by an angel so he wasn't really prepared for it.
Bobby looks around and squints his eyes from the bright hot sun beating down on him. He sees the bright blue waves crashing onto the shore in front of him as far as the horizon. On one side of the beach he sees a large rock wall very tall about 8feet high and on the other side of the wall the sky is dark, the moon and stars shine brightly. He also notices his wheelchair is no where around though there is an axe lying not too far away from him and a tool box.
Bobby is totally confused, angry and about to curse for being left stranded in this strange place by Castiel when he hears whistling coming from the other side of the rock wall.
Bobby: "Castiel?"
No one answers, but the whistling continues and gets closer.
Bobby tries to move and notices for the first time in a long time he can feel his legs moving for they are no longer paralyzed while he's in Wonderland.
Bobby: "What the?"
Bobby pauses and wriggles his feet then he finally stands up all on his own and marvels at how this can even be possible.
Bobby grins as he stares at his legs and begins to walk. He smiles.
Bobby: "I can't believe it I'm healed!"
Bobby looks up and sees the whistler come around the corner it's a huge fat 6ft tall walrus wearing a waistcoat, top hat, knickers and the walrus's gigantic tail is split in two as the walrus waddles along the beach holding a cane. The walrus looks at Bobby and smirks at him.
Bobby screams!
The Walrus: "Take a chill pill with that. Now allow me to introduce myself."
Bobby grabs the axe near him and is prepared to attack the beastie, but the Walrus starts singing.
"Angels we have heard on high
Welcome to my nightmare Welcome to my nightmare Welcome to my breakdown Welcome to my nightmare
I think you're gonna like it
I think you're gonna feel... you belong
A nocturnal vacation
Unnecessary sedation
You want to feel at home 'cause you belong
Welcome to my breakdown
I hope I didn't scare you
That's just the way we are when we come down
We sweat and laugh and scream here
'cuz life is just a dream here
You know inside you feel right at home here
Whoa
You're welcome to my nightmare
Yeah
I think you're gonna like it
I think you're gonna feel... you belong
We sweat laugh and scream here
'cuz life is just a dream here
You know inside you feel right at home here
Welcome to my nightmare
Welcome to my breakdown
Yeah"
Bobby: "What the hell kind of nightmare is this?"
The Walrus: "The locals called it a Wonderland, yeah right wonder I hate it then, angels don't belong here."
Bobby: "I'm no angel are you?"
The Walrus: "Duh, you may have heard of me, the name is Gabriel."
Bobby stares at Gabriel in disbelief for a moment then he busts out laughing.
Gabriel the Walrus frowns and rolls his eyes.
Gabriel: "Well howdy to you too Bobby."
Bobby: "You're Gabriel? You're the one that's been given the boys so much trouble! I remember they called me about a trickster you had them acting all crazy going in circles over at that school then how many times did you kill Dean?"
Gabriel smiles at the thought of his tricks on the Winchesters.
Gabriel: "By the end it was 173 kills. Yeah I set a record with that one it was some of my best work!"
Gabriel chuckles
Bobby doesn't find him killing Dean funny.
Bobby: "I should rip you apart and sell you for lipstick blubber face!"
Gabriel: "Oh don't be like that, I may be a walrus in Wonderland, but I can still turn tricks and we can help each other."
Bobby scoffs then frowns at him.
Bobby: "Why the hell would I help you?"
Gabriel: "Well if you ever want to get out of here you will. See we're both trapped here, but I figured out a way of escape I just can't do it by myself. The locals are complete morons and no amount of tricks I do will get them to help me, it's like they enjoy them the freaks, especially that weirdo mad hatter."
Bobby stares at Gabriel not sure what to even think.
Bobby: "Where's Castiel? What have you done with him?"
Gabriel: "Nothing, I haven't seen him, but if he's here then he's no doubt a creature now like me."
Bobby recalls Castiel's creepy tentacle finger and starts to think Gabriel may just be telling the truth about him.
Bobby: "How do you plan to escape?"
Gabriel smiles glad to see Bobby's interested in leaving too.
Gabriel: "I'm an angel not a walrus, we fly. We don't swim! You see that ocean over there see that one spot there covered in seaweed and foam?
Gabriel turns his head towards the water and Bobby then turns to look at it too.
Bobby: "Yeah, so?"
Gabriel: "Oysters live under there. You need to build us a boat carpenter out of driftwood and row out to that spot, then use those new sea legs of yours to swim down and grab us an oyster with a pearl inside. The pearl here are magical, we can use it to wish ourselves out of this godforsaken place."
Bobby looks at Gabriel for a moment then back at the water.
Bobby laughs in disbelief.
Bobby: "You're out of your damn mind; no way in hell I'm doing that!"
Gabriel: "I'd figured you say that you're just like those boys are stubborn, but look here Bobster you ever want to see them again you will do it cause it is the only way out of this hell hole."
Bobby grabs a rock and throws it at Gabriel's face.
Gabriel catches it in his mouth and crushes the rock with his big walrus teeth.
Bobby glares at him
Gabriel: "Okay I knew talking to you would be like talking to that rock wall over there, so here's my offer you do this and I will make sure Sam and Dean never have to become Lucifer or Michael's vessels."
Bobby: "What? How?"
Gabriel: "My brothers may be strong, but they have always underestimated me I'm not just any angel. You may think of me as a Trickster, a low level god, but I'm an archangel capable of defeating those two moron brothers of mine easily. I even have a sword that can kill them both."
Gabriel holds up his cane and reveals the angel sword inside of it.
Bobby frowns
Bobby: "Then why haven't you used it before?"
Gabriel: "Because I never wanted to kill them this much before, they use to just be annoying now their downright tiresome. I don't like to be bored. This place is boring as hell, and so are my brothers. That is why I abandoned the heavenly mission a long time ago. I don't play for either team, I like to work alone. I do my own thing always have, but they are about to ruin my playground. Earth is messed up and that's how I like it, Lucifer wants to make it his own heaven and Michael wants to kill him, but in the process he has no problem seeing the earth destroyed because he believes its God's will and daddy will create a new better earth with new less sinful humans. Well I don't want any of that shit to happen! I want the world to stay the way it is so I can keep doing my thing. I'm good at it, besides our world's not so bad. There are a lot worse ones like this one trust me. So we have something in common Bobster."
Bobby: "If I build this boat, and find an oyster. How do I know you want just kill me once we return back to our world?"
Gabriel smirks
Gabriel: "How do you know I won't just kill you now?"
Bobby stares at him a bit fearful.
Gabriel: "Life is about second chances my friend it is not about cabbage and kings don't be lazy don't give up, be all that you can be. I know you can build it, if you build it they will come."
Bobby rolls his eyes at Gabriel's jokes.
Bobby thinks to himself, I am going to clip Cas's wings for this! How could he just leave me here with this idjiot brother of his? I am glad my legs are working again, but this is too weird. Where the hell is that angel? I've got find him fast! I don't trust this walrus more than I could throw him, he's always full of tricks well he's not going con me. If I have to build this stupid boat I will, but only so I can throw his behind in the ocean to drown him as soon as I get the chance. If he's really a walrus then he'll be able to swim if not well bon voyage Gabriel.
Bobby: "I'll build the boat just stay out of my way angel until it's done!"
Gabriel nods and smiles.
Gabriel takes out some sunglasses from his jacket pocket and puts them on his walrus face, his whiskers twitch as he settles into the sand to watch as Bobby works his butt off building a boat for them while he does nothing, but whistle.
Bobby grabs the toolbox and gets to work.
Scene: Outside of Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan
Dean closes the car door and smiles excited to see Alice Cooper in concert.
Sam sighs as he gets out feeling totally the opposite.
Dean palms the tickets with his fingers as they approach the doors to the arena.
There is a huge crowd of Alice Cooper fans outside making lots of noise and looking pretty pissed off.
Dean leads the way as Sam follows closely behind while they make their way through the crowd. Dean notices people are frowning and complaining all around, some chicks are even crying. He becomes concerned about it so he finally taps a fellow on the shoulder to find out what is wrong with everybody.
The guy turns around and frowns at Dean.
Dean: "Hey pal, what seems to be the trouble? Are the doors not open?"
The guy: "The concert's been changed only special guests are invited, the rest of us hard working hardcore fans are up shit creek, these tickets are totally worthless unless it's got a special barcode or something you can't get in they just announced it over the loud speakers."
Dean frowns now also upset.
Sam hopes this means they can go home, but doesn't speak.
Dean: "That is ridiculous, how can they just cancel the show on people like that!"
A young woman standing near by in a Lynard Skynard t-shirt speaks up.
The young woman: "Because there is no show I'm telling you Alice Cooper is dead!"
The guy: "You're lying! He ain't dead, he's probably drunk though or sick or something so his management just doesn't want us to see him like that. I mean what do they care they already got all our money."
Sam frowns he doesn't like to hear of people being taking advantage of even if he has no interested in seeing Alice Cooper.
Sam: "Surely, they plan to reimburse ya'll for this."
The guy: "No, they told us all to wait here and in about a half hour they will start passing out new tickets for another show next time Alice is in town. What a croc! I've waited for months to see this concert, saved up my money and now they expect us to wait even longer to see him. This is a bunch of bull!"
Dean immediately checks their tickets and notices the barcodes on the back of them. Dean wants to smile and jump around excited they have the special tickets. But, he knows that will only piss off the crowd and he doesn't want to get jacked for his tickets so he plays it cool.
Dean: "Well this is an outrage! Come on Sam we're going inside to talk to the management they can't treat people like this!"
Sam nods
The guy: "Good luck though I doubt it will do any good, these sharks don't give a crap about us regular folk we're just a bunch of lowlife obsessed rock fans who they think they can just roll over on. They're messing with the wrong crowd its about to be a riot up in here if we don't get our damn money back!"
Dean frowns then pulls on Sam's jacket ushering him to come along away from the crowd and into the arena before a riot starts. They both go inside.
Sam: "Dean, this is a mess did you here him? They are about to start rioting we got do something."
Dean: "Yeah, we got go see the concert before the cops show."
Sam stares at him confused.
Dean shows him the back of the tickets and the barcode on back.
Sam looks at the barcode then back at Dean.
Sam: "Dude, come on you can't be serious?"
Dean: "Hey it's not our fault we got the special tickets why should we miss a free show! I've always wanted to meet Alice Cooper man!"
Sam: "This doesn't feel right?"
Dean rolls his eyes.
Dean: "Oh please anyone of them outside would do the same if they had these tickets, stop being such a bleeding heart Sam. They aren't going to riot once they get their new tickets most of them will just leave. It's too freaking cold outside and it's about to snow, they're not going to stay out there and freeze to death over a few bucks and the guards will lock the doors to keep the crazies from getting inside the arena so we're safe.
Sam frowns and folds his arms.
Sam: "You would riot. If you paid for tickets to see a rock show and got ripped off. You be the one leading the riot! You'd salt and burn this joint down Dean I know you."
Dean: "Yeah well I didn't get ripped off and I got the special tickets so are you coming or what?"
Sam sighs and follows Dean as he heads for the refreshment stand to stock up.
Sam decides to go to the bathroom before the concert begins while Dean goes to the refreshment stand and orders a bunch of candy, hotdogs and beer for them.
Dean knows he has no money to pay though so he waits for Sam to return from the bathroom.
Sam washes his hands and is about to leave the bathroom when he hears the faint sound of crying coming from inside a stall.
Sam can tell it's not the sound of an adult, but of a child crying.
Sam bends down to look under the stall and he sees two little black patent leather shoes and white tights.
Sam is surprised that there must be a little girl in the Men's bathroom and he becomes even more alarmed that she might have been hurt by someone since she is crying.
Sam opens the stall and the little blonde girl looks up at him with tears falling down her face.
Sam: "What's the matter sweetie are you lost?"
The little girl nods and sniffles.
Sam hands her some toilet paper to wipe her face.
The little girl takes it and half smiles at him.
She wipes her tears a bit and Sam notices blood from a cut on her hand.
Sam frowns and becomes more worried.
Sam: "You're hurt."
The little girl pouts: "Help me please!"
Sam looks into her sad green eyes and can feel his body get weaker he doesn't understand why, but he knows he must do all he can to help this poor child.
Sam: "Come with me sweetie."
The little girl takes Sam's hand then he all of sudden hears her scream as something inside the toilet pulls at her and starts to suck her down into it.
The little girl screams louder and Sam grabs both of her hands to try and pull her back out, but he can't the suction is very strong and is dragging him along too.
Sam considers for just a fleeting second of letting her go, but he can't he holds her tightly and they both get sucked down the toilet bowl as bloody water splashes everywhere.
Every other toilet in the bathroom shatters apart as red water rushes all over flooding the empty bathroom.
Dean grows impatient waiting for Sam to return as is just about to go inside the bathroom to find out what is taking him so long when a man taps Dean on the shoulder.
Dean turns around to look at him.
The man: "Can I see your tickets please?"
Dean assumes the man must work for the arena as a guard.
Dean shows him one ticket with the barcode facing upward.
The man pulls out a scanner and scans the ticket, the ticket flashes red.
The man frowns
The man: "Come with me sir."
Dean becomes a bit worried; he doesn't want to get thrown out of here and miss the concert.
Dean: "Is there a problem?"
The man: "You've been granted backstage access."
Dean smirks
Dean: "Really?"
The man nods
Dean: "Well let me just go get my brother, he's in the bathroom."
The man: "No, he's already backstage come on let's go!"
Dean knows he didn't see Sam come out of the bathroom and decides this man is pulling a fast one and must be trying to get his ticket.
Dean: "Let me see you're badge, do you work here?"
The man becomes angry.
The man: "You want to see my badge okay."
The man pulls out a gun, and points it at Dean's lower abdomen.
Dean puts his hands up a bit and nervously backs away from him.
Dean thinks to himself, damn it, I knew this was a set up son of a bitch! Why does this always happen to us? We can't even have one night of peace anymore.
The man: "Let's Go!"
Dean walks ahead as the man follows behind him pointing the gun at his back pushing him towards the stage access door.
Dean waits for the right moment as the door swings open then pushes the door back into the man. The gun goes off and the bullet dents the metal door.
Dean takes off running down the hallway as the man scrambles to get back up after being crushed by the door.
Dean sees another door in the hallway and quickly runs through it locking it from the inside.
The room is dark and Dean searches for a light switch, but he can't find one.
Dean pulls out his phone and tries to call Sam the phone rings, but Sam doesn't answer it instead it just goes to his voicemail.
Dean: "Damn it Sam! Answer your phone!"
Dean hangs up the phone and tries to call Castiel.
Castiel also doesn't answer his phone either.
Dean becomes extremely worried.
Dean thinks to himself, okay I'm locked in a broom closet. My brother isn't picking up, and now my angel isn't either what the hell!
Dean pulls out his gun he always hides in the back of his jeans under his jacket. He prepares to unlock the door and defend himself against whoever is out there, but before he can leave Dean feels another tap on his shoulder. He turns around and sees a cat, a really big cat with bright blue eyes and a huge scary grin perched on top of a shelf in the closet. Dean notices that the cat has a very big head and the light emanating from the cat's eyes makes it just bright enough for Dean to see the cat has no body, but is just a disembodied floating head.
The cat grins
The cat: "Hello Dean."
Dean screams really loud.
The cat touches Dean's jacket and they both disappear to Wonderland.
