New chapter! Yay! Shit's about to go down. That's all I'm saying. Enjoy! Thanks for the reviews! I loved reading them. I've got to get better at replying back to them as well. Sorry. I've made it my mission to reply to every one, even if it's just to thank you.
Dean was outside the building behind some junk that was lying around, waiting for the Ekimmu. His instincts were on overdrive, watching everywhere with careful eyes, watching for the slightest hint of danger. He was getting tired of waiting for his target to leave the building. He and Cas had seen the Ekimmu enter the building about a half hour ago and it had yet to leave the building. He just wanted to yell and scream at it to get it's ass outside, but he knew he couldn't. He had to stick to the plan. If he made one wrong move, then the whole plan could fail and Sammy would be in even more danger or could end up dead. It didn't help him to calm down when he kept hearing Sam' screams from inside the building. He could only imagine what that bastard was doing to his baby brother in there. He only knew one thing and that was was that that son of a bitch was going to pay. He was going to make it's death as slow as possible. Make it suffer for what it was doing to Sam, but he knew he couldn't just barge in there guns-a-blazin'. It would be suicide and that would only end up getting everybody killed. Dean knew he couldn't take any chances with this thing, but Sam' screams were getting worse each time they were heard.
He almost couldn't take it anymore and was ready to barge in, screw the consequences.
'I can't. Ignore it, ignore it,' Dean thought, while trying to calm himself down.
The screaming had finally stopped. Apparently Mr. Monster was done with today's torture session.
At first Dean was worried that Sam was dead and this made Dean all the more determined to get his little brother away from here. He didn't have time to worry about that because at the moment, the plan was staring to come into play. He saw the Ekimmu calmly walk out of the building. Dean was shocked by it size. It was over 6 feet tall and was absolutely ripped. It looked much worse than the lore described it and Dean felt himself involuntarily shiver. Dean was almost glad Cas was going to provide backup because for once, he felt that this was a battle he couldn't win on his own. He watched it walk closer to where he was hiding and then stop. It looked like it was listening to something and it started to turn around and head back towards the building.
Dean knew Cas was going to be in there, helping get Sammy out, so in a moment of panic, he got up and yelled, "Hey ugly! Where do you think your going! The fights over here!"
The beast turned and locked eyes with Dean. A small smile spread across it's face, sending shivers up Dean's spine. Dean blinked and the next thing he knew, the Ekimmu was almost directly in front of him.
"Dean Winchester," it hissed. "I knew you'd come to save your brother. I was starting to get impatient and your brother decided to stay tight lipped. He wouldn't say a word to me, nor would he help me find you, although he did use a few choice words, that would make a mother cry. I almost feel bad for the stuff I put him through, but it was just too much fun breaking him!"
Dean realized that Cas was right. This thing was definitely not something he could take on by himself. He just needed to distract it enough to give Cas the time to get Sammy out of the building and to somewhere safe. He only hoped he could last long enough for the plan to come together. Dean was knocked back into reality by the Ekimmu' sneering.
"I wish you could have been there Dean...to hear your poor brothers screams. It was like music to my ears! To watch the blood running down his body, creating pools of blood on the floor. It was euphonious! Your brother here, was a tough one to break, but I guess in the end, he just wasn't tough enough," it purred.
"What did you just say?" Dean seethed.
The Ekimmu looked at him with an evil grin sketched across his face.
"About what?" it mocked. "About the blood? Or was it the screaming part? Or maybe it was about your brother not being tough enough!" it roared, laughing obnoxiously.
"What did you do to my brother!" Dean screamed, anger clouding his judgement.
All Dean saw was red in his vision and a very deep desire to rip this monster limb from limb, relishing in its screams as he tore it apart.
"Oh, just that your brother wasn't looking very good when I left him after my little visit. He was...," the Ekimmu trailed off as Dean cocked his gun, took aim and shot the monster in the face.
Dean watched as the thing fell to the ground with a scream. He couldn't believe it. The big tough Ekimmu went down with one shot? It felt too good to be true.
That's when Dean noticed Cas appear next to him. Cas looked relieved to see Dean alive and then his focus landed on the beast. He looked at Dean and then back at the Ekimmu.
"Is it dead?" he asked.
"I don't know," Dean said. "But we should really get out of here. How's Sammy?"
Cas could hear the tremor in Dean' voice as he asked about his brother and could tell that something had happened between him and the Ekimmu because Dean looked like he had just been told that someone he cared about was dead. With dread tearing him up, he realized that the Ekimmu might have done just that and told Dean that Sam was dead. Cas wanted to tell Dean that Sam was fine and well, but he knew he couldn't lie to him. He could at least tell him he wasn't dead at least.
"Dean," Cas said softly. "Sam isn't well. I did what I could, but...,"
That was all Cas managed to get out before Dean looked at Cas with a face full of remorse. A tear trickled down Deans face as he looked at Cas and choked out, "Is he...Is he dead?"
"No. He is alive."
Dean then grabbed Cas' arms and said, "Take me to him."
"I don't think..."
"Now!" Dean growled.
Cas let out a sigh and gave up trying to prevent Dean from seeing the state Sam was in. He grabbed Dean and silently teleported Dean to where Sam was. Cas knew Dean wasn't going to like what he saw.
Thanks for reading!
...til next time
