"Every Rainbow is a promise kept by GOD."

WARNINGS: SPOILERS for Season 10.. Going straight to 'The Cure" and what I think that will be like.. P.S. Demon Dean is NOT.. Repeat NOT nice or good.. In fact he is barely redeemable and he makes 'curing' him, mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally, damaging, difficult and exhausting.. Dean is going to be Hell to deal with (Literally and Metaphorically) throughout most of the time.. And DEMON Dean isn't even going to feel bad about it when 'The Cure' starts finally 'taking hold', 'The Cure' is not permanent either, Sam will have to go through eight hours of draining himself to give Dean his purified blood every day until Sam can figure out how to get The Mark of Cain off of Dean.. And DEMON Dean doesn't care how sick this ordeal is making Sam, in fact he's kind of almost hoping Sam will just die so he doesn't have to deal with Sam anymore.. Because Dean is happy being a demon (or at least he THINKS he is..) and he wants Sam out of his way, wants Sam's interference to no longer be an issue.. And at some point Sam will get so weakened by what he's doing to try to save Dean, that DEMON Dean one ups Sam and Sam ends up tied to a chair in the bunker's dungeon.. Where Demon Dean is just going to leave him.. A certain someone decides to teach Dean a lesson or two.. Trickster Style.. GABRIEL IS BACK, BABY!

OTHER WARNINGS.. BLANKET WARNING.. For anything and everything that could be considered as Offensive or Triggering Contents.. Lots of Hurt/Limp! Sam and Angsty/Guilty/Remorseful! Dean to come!

Jumping right into the middle of the action..

Now… Onto the story.. Please read, enjoy and review..

Chapter 1.

Eight needles are lined up and ready to go. Dean is not a happy camper about this. Sam guesses that the Iron in the chains must burn like a bitch. Plus Dean was never one for having a lot of patience. Never really could sit still very long.

Dean rants and raves and honestly it's all to be expected.. Sam's never seen a demon that actually wants to be eradicated… Well, this isn't exactly eradication of this particular demon.. But he's pretty sure that Dean doesn't see it that way.. That Dean can't see it that way, not while he's like this.. Dean is still Dean and he will still be Dean even after this.. Sam just has to make him remember that.. Make Dean remember that there is still a choice in all this and he knows that once Dean is past the halfway point that Dean will make the right choice.. He just has to give his brother that chance. The chance to make that choice, with a clear and level head that's not influenced by the seduction of sweet, sweet power..

But Dean's words cut and burn like a razor's edge. Dean definitely isn't going holding back.. And maybe that's a good thing?.. Maybe this is all stuff that Dean needs to get off of his chest before the cure can finally begin to take hold..

But that doesn't mean that it doesn't still hurt like a million daggers to the heart and soul..

Dean calls him a failure.. Tells him he's selfish and ungrateful.. And finally Dean starts to say what's true and real and what Sam has always known.. That Dean resented him growing up, that Dean STILL resents him even now, in fact it's worse now than it was then.. Sam already figured this stuff out a long time ago, he's known Dean resented him back when he was about eleven and he's carried that with him for years.. Now Dean talks like he pretty much hates him.. Sam figured that one out a while back too.. But he doesn't say anything.

He just sits quietly, getting the next syringe ready, as Dean yanks on the chains and writhes in the chair and yells and screams obscenities all involving Sam and some very inventive forms of very painful deaths, as Dean spouts hate filled accusations of how Sam has never done anything but lie to him, how Sam has never done anything but abandon him. How all of this is somehow Sam's fault.. And Sam doesn't say anything, because he believes that Dean is right about all of it..

Three hours in, the only change that Sam can see is that Dean is getting more violent, more hateful. Sam wonders if The Cure will even work, even just a little the way it did for Crowley.. Dean is a different kind of demon than anything he's ever dealt with.

Dean's words start cutting into the things Sam has had to do in the pursuit if trying to find his missing brother.

Words like "Sammy's little Demon Blood Addiction" get thrown around like fodder for the fires of Dean's rage and still..

Sam stays quiet through what all Dean shouts and screams and hisses and growls at him..

Sam is doing his best not to have any kind of reaction. He thinks that pisses Dean off even more, but he'd rather live with Dean's anger now than come to find out he's caused Dean's guilt later, if Dean should look back on this, remember any of it and remember seeing a crushed or haunted look in Sam's eyes.. Sam wants to start over again on a clean slate.. If there's any guilt from this for either of them then that can't happen.

So Sam rides out the storm, wearing a stone faced façade and he doesn't say anything, doesn't give this demon the satisfaction of seeing him react, because his brother will be back and he doesn't want him dealing with more even more guilt from all the things his demonic self, did..

The Cure will take hold.. It has to.

Sam doesn't know what to do.. What he will do, if it doesn't..

Six hours in and still, the only change is the increase to how aggressive Dean is becoming.. Sam's beginning to wonder if the chains will be able to keep containing him..

Six and a half hours in…

Sam lets out a relieved sigh.. Dean is starting to cry.. The sobbing is angry and violent, but it's crying just the same.. Sam hopes and prays that this means the cure is starting to finally take hold. Dean is still spouting angry accusations of how many times Sam has failed him, how many times Sam has abandoned him.. But now there's more than just anger there.. Sam can hear how much pain those moments caused Dean.. He can hear how disappointed Dean was with him through all of those difficult and trying times..

He thinks that maybe, just maybe a piece of the Dean he knew is starting to make its way back to him..

Eight hours in.. He never got to give Crowley the eighth syringe of purified blood and Crowley had still become basically human.. well.. with a few additives.. But he doesn't want to run the risk of not giving the eighth syringe to Dean now.. The battle for Dean's soul is depending on how long the cure will keep its hold, because Sam still doesn't know how to get The Mark off of his brother, which means that as Sam works to cure Dean's demonic side, The Mark will just be working to condemn every single part of Dean all over again.. So Sam plans to inject Dean with his own purified blood each and every day until he can find a way to get the damned Mark off of Dean and he doesn't care what sorts of risks he'll be posing to his own health in all of this.. He has more important things to worry about.

Like keeping Dean from ever having to go back to Hell again.

Besides he already knows his own end is nigh.. He just hopes DEATH will give him long enough to do just this one last thing before he has to leave this world….
