It came from Jack's room and it was filled with horror. They rushed to his room and found him on the floor crying and sobbing violently. But his eyes were closed, so they knew that he was dreaming. Dean tried to wake him up and Jack startled and opened his eyes which at first were perplexed in an effort to remember where and when he was. When reality hit him, he saw both Cass and Dean were staring at him with worry. His head fell down with embarrassment. He did it again; he woke up screaming, again! He thought to himself, "why am I so weak?"
"You okay, kid?" Dean asked. Jack nods his head in affirmation and tried to get up from the ground but he didn't have any strength in his legs, so they wobbled beneath him and he felt like falling down but Dean and Cass both caught him before he would hit the ground, again!
They placed him on his bed. His eyes were on the floor but he managed to say, "I'm sorry". Cass immediately replied, "You have nothing to apologize for."
Jack began to say, "It's just that when I close my eyes, every time..." He stopped in the middle of his sentence and started staring at the walls.
"You sensed him again, didn't you? Dean asked him while intently watching his every move. Jack got back his powers. Well, at least most of his powers. He was still physically weak and anybody would have been if they have gone through what Jack has gone through. Anyway, now that he got his grace back, he could sense the presence of other beings who are like him.
Jack nodded and looked directly at Dean, his eyes were full of water, he said, "but I can't find him. I don't know where he is. I'm trying but I am sorry. It's all my fault. Sam's gone because of me." He looked down; he couldn't maintain eye contact anymore.
"Jack", Dean's voice was kind but firm; he sat beside Jack on his bed and continued, "It's not your fault. What Sam did..." Dean paused and then said, "He did it for all of us, his family." He stopped again; Cass cleared his throat, "Dean's right Jack. Sam has sacrificed himself many times before, for his family."
"Yes! But he could have told me. No, he planned it all by himself and with that God damn Death. He didn't bother to at least ask me before he did it. We could have found another way", Dean shouted and let it all out. Then he looked at Cass who was frowning at him. Dean swallowed the words that were coming out of his mouth for the sake of Jack. He just said, "For that, I owe him a serious beat down, but we can figure it out when we find him. And we will find him Jack one way or other. I've talked to other hunters, the hunters Sam had recruited. Mom, Charlie, Booby are all using their resources."
"I have my ears up for the angel radio and few angels who promised me to help. You don't worry Jack, we will find him", Cass said.
Jack looked up at the angel and said, "What makes you think that he would want to come back?" With these words, the room fell silent...
