After his rounds, Dr. Dean Morgan went to his office to make a phone call. The officers in Sam's case wanted answers about John's whereabouts. So to clear the father in order for him to see his son, he had to make the call explaining the father had no involvement in his son's abuse.

Morgan had been a Doctor for so long, he could tell if the parents were lying or telling the truth. This one, he knew, that John was telling the truth just from the shocked look he gave and the anger when he mentioned the abuse to his son. He knew that John didn't have any involvement in this matter, and he wanted to help clear John's name so he could visit his boy.

Immediately he called his brother over at Aztec Memorial Hospital, who supposedly was John's Doctor. He asked the Officers to hold off in calling CPS until he acquired the information. Once CPS was involved, it would take a whole lot longer for John to see Sam, or if at all. He knew that Sam needed his family now if he was going to survive this ordeal. He was grateful the Officers agreed to call John's physician. Morgan decided to leave out that the doctor was his brother.

"Jeff, this is Dean calling. I need to ask you a couple of questions…no, it's not about that bro. It's about one of your patients. I'm calling because I have a John Winchester here…yes he did take a flight here…I know what happened to him…yeah, I know, he is supposed to be resting…if you please let me finish, I'll tell you." Dean waited until his brother calmed down.

"His son Sam was in an accident at the National Park, and he's in the Intensive Care Unit as we speak. I need to clear John of any abuse charges. That's right, his young son was sexually abused and the police believe it was John. That's why I need his records of his stay there. He wants to see his son, which I can totally understand, but the officers won't let him. So can you fax me his records now, so I can show them he wasn't involved. I want these bastards out of here, so John and Dean could see their youngest. Thanks bro for sending those to me. It'll get them off John's back. Yeah, I'll let you know how things go. And is John on any medication that I should know about?" After he received all the information he needed, he went to the Nurses' station to retrieve the paper work.

After obtaining the records he needed, he put them in a folder and headed down the hallway, stopping in front of his office where the Officers waited. He showed them all the records of John's admittance for five days. After looking over the information, the Officers were satisfied that John wasn't involved with the abuse.

Walking into the office with the Doctor, they wanted to let John know they were sorry, and wanted to personally tell them how bad they felt for doing this. As they entered the room, they were saddened at what they saw. John was comforting Dean, who was still shaken up from the news and could see he was quivering. They walked up to John and smiled sadly. They needed to tell them what they knew, but wasn't sure if it was a good time to do so.

"Mr. Winchester, we are sorry for keeping you from seeing your son. But we had to make sure it wasn't you that did this to your boy." Officer David informed John.

John could understand why they did this, but he was still angry at them for thinking he would. "I don't agree with it, but I do understand your situation. The first person you guys blame are the parents no matter what. I could never do anything like that to either of my sons, no matter how upset I get; and believe me, there are times I want to strangle them, but they are my world."

"I do know what you mean Mr. Winchester. I have sons of my own, and there are times I want to do the same as you do. I'm very sorry for what happened to your son with the abuse and the fall. We hope that he will pull through this and survive." Officer Steve said.

"D-Do you kn-know who did this to my brother? W-why would anyone want to hurt him like this?" Dean asked in a small voice

."The only thing we know at this point in the investigation is that a group of teens saw him fall from a cliff. When they looked up, they saw a person, they think a man, walk away from the area. They couldn't get a good look at the person since they were focused on your son. We are waiting for some more info from the sheriff's office. One of the Officers was called to the Hospital by the accident scene with some information. As soon as we learn anything, we'll let you know right away Mr. Winchester." Officer David answered Dean's question.

After they were finished speaking with the family, the officers left to finish the paper work. They both hoped that Sam would survive and help them find the person or persons responsible for this heinous act.

Watching the officers leave the room, Morgan looked over at John and Dean. He knew they wanted to see their youngest, so he wasn't going to make them wait any longer.

"When you two are ready, I'll take you to see Sam. I got to let you know that he's going to be hooked up to machines. It's going to look scary at first, so prepare yourselves for what you'll see. Let me know when you two are ready and we'll go." Morgan didn't want to rush them.

John looked at Dean who nodded to his dad that he was ready. He was scared as Hell to walk through the door to see his brother. He didn't know if he could prepare himself for what will be in store for him, and he couldn't stop feeling how Sam would react to him when he knew that he was there.

With John's help, they rose off the couch and walked to the elevator, pressing the button five. Traversing down the hallway, Dean couldn't stop the horrible feeling he was having. It felt like someone was stabbing him in the heart with a hot blade over and over again. Walking through the doors, they followed Morgan to the last door, which scared John to no end wondering why his baby boy was in the last room.

"The reason why Sam is in the last room in this unit is because he's in solitary confinement. It's only for precaution because of his injuries and his age. I only allow two people, besides myself, in the room with him at a time. He has around-the-clock care and we have to be very careful when we are with him. When we walk into the room, you'll see another door. Before we go in and see Sam, you need to wear protective material just for precaution. One little sneeze or someone with a temperature will have a bad effect on Sam. He's so weak, the slightest thing could kill him. I'm not trying to scare you two. I'm just telling you how it is right now. We want to do what's best for Sam at this stage of recovery." Morgan wanted to stress how important it is to follow these rules.

Entering the room, they changed into the provided scrubs, washed their hands, and sanitized them before putting the gloves and mask on. Morgan waited a moment more before he opened the door. They both weren't ready for what they were about to see.

~~~000~~~

Officer Jean walked into the Sheriff's station to let her boss know how the situation had become. She was more scared now for Jill and Jack than before. They needed to get them to a safe place quicker then she thought they would. This Brian is one crazy person who needed to be found, and Jill and her son needed to be safe from him.

Walking into his office, she saw the two Police Officers from the scene where Sam had his accident. They were taking notes and getting the info on what's been going on. They needed to be updated on this Brian to keep Sam safe. With him out there, Jill, Jack, or Sam won't be safe with Brian on the loose.

"Jean, this is Officer David and Officer Steve. They were on scene. They're here for more information on Sam. Did you learn anything more about Brian and on Jill and Jack? I don't like the look on your face. Jean, what's going on?" Chief Anderson asked.

"I just got back from seeing Jack and Jill and it's worse than we thought. Brian was stalking Jill before Sam came to visit. He showed up the day Sam called her and threaten to kill her and Jack, so she had no choice but to have him stay there out of fear for her and her child. Jack told me that Brian molested Sam at Jill's house the day before they left, and that Brian tried to get Sam alone with him, but Jack stopped him every time. He saw Brian beat Sam before he stopped him and told Sam to run. Brian stabbed him and ran after Sam and tried to kill Sam by throwing him off the cliff." Jean told them what she learned.

"That is one sick bastard, if you ask me." Officer Steve said.

"Yeah, you're telling me. He is one sick bastard for what he did to Sam and Jack. Thank goodness Jill found her son in time to save him. Now we are going to have to put them in protective custody until we find Brian. So what did the Doctors say about us moving Jack to a safe place?" Chief Anderson asked.

"He said that Jack can be moved in two days. They want to keep a close eye on him. They want to make sure he doesn't get an infection or have a bleeder. I don't like that one bit, but we have to follow the Doctors orders. I'll have one of the officers posted by his door to keep watch."

"That's a good idea. Jean, let one of our plain-clothed officers know and have him stay there. This way Brian wouldn't know that they are being watched and we can have someone close by."

Giving Jean the okay, Anderson turned his attention to the Officers again, giving them all the information they needed on Brian. When they looked over the file, they both were sick on what they read. They would have to make sure that no one knew about Sam. They would keep a lid on Sam's location until Brian was caught. At least Sam had his father and brother to protect him, unlike Jack who only has his mother. All three hoped that they will find Brian before he found Sam, Jill, and Jack. Leaving to give the information to their office, they headed back to the hospital. This is the one time they didn't want to inform the family members. How can you tell a family that a psycho who tried to kill your son is still free?

~~~000~~~

After waiting until dark before he came out of his hiding spot, Brian started to walk down the road to the cabin. He knew it would take him a couple of hours or more to get there, knowing that the cops would be out looking for whoever killed Sam. So he took his time to get there and hid every time a car went by. Finally after two and a half hours of walking, he made it back to the cabin.

As he approached the cabin, he saw several of the Sheriff's cars parked out front. He hid in the bushes and waited for them to leave. As he watched them take things out of the cabin, his anger boiled inside of him. He knew it was Jill who told them where they were staying. He cursed at her because now he won't be able to get his gun. If the cops find it, they would confiscate it for evidence.

He didn't have to wait too long before they left with their belongings. He made sure that both cars were well out of sight before he stepped out from his hiding spot.

Walking into the cabin, he looked around for his belongings, finding them in his room; which means they only took Sam's, Jill's, and Jack's belongings, and also that they'll be back to watch the place. Thinking they may be watching the place right now, he grabbed his gun and hunting knife and went to the window. He looked around before he climbed out the window facing the woods. As he jumped to the ground, he heard voices coming from the front of the house. He ran into the woods before the two officers got to the back of the house. Leaving his stuff behind, he ran to find his sister and nephew and kill them both.

As Brian walked through the woods, he saw lights on in another cabin. He walked up to the window and peered in to see a young couple. Looking around the place, he saw their car out front. Noticing that the car was unlocked, he looked for the keys. He knew that some people would hide their keys in a special spot. Finding nothing, he walked to the back of the cabin and snuck inside a back window.

Walking quietly through the kitchen, he snuck up to the unsuspecting couple and stood behind the couch, reaching down and slicing their throats in one easy stroke. Watching as they bled out, he went to look for the keys. Finding them, he walked out the front door and looked around, making sure that no one had seen him leaving or entering the cabin. Climbing into the car, he pulled out the driveway and headed down the street.

~~~000~~~

Sam felt like he was floating in the clouds. His body felt so light and heavy at the same time. To him, it was a very strange feeling and it scared him. Opening his eyes, he saw he was looking up at the blue cloudless sky. Sitting up, he saw the mountain that he, Jill, Jack, and Brian was at before he got hurt. Getting up from the ground, he looked over his shoulders to see if anyone was around. Seeing that he was alone, it occurred to him that perhaps he was dead and was in heaven.

"No Sam, you're not dead and this isn't heaven. You're in limbo, between life and death, and I'm here to show you the way." A person said.

Turning around, Sam saw a man standing right behind him. He was about John's height and had dark hair and icy blue eyes. He noticed the man standing there was wearing a suit and a coat. He wondered if this is how an Angel is supposed to look.

"Yes Sam, I'm an Angel from God who came here to show you the way. I'm only going to take you on a journey and it's up to you if you want to live or die." The Angel said.

"What do you mean? What kind of journey am I going on? Why should I believe you?" Sam stepped away from the Angel.

"Sam, I am an Angel that God sent to you to show you the way. I'm here to help you in your decision to stay with your family or come with me. This is your choice to make. I'm merely here to lead the way and help you. So if you're ready, let's get started and see what's going to happen on what you choose." The Angel reached out for Sam.

Stepping further back from the Angel, Sam looked around to find a place to run. He didn't know who this person was or what he says was true. He only knew one thing is that Dean hated him, so what's the point in living. Yes, he did care about his dad and how it will affect him if he died. But his whole life was wrapped around Dean. Everything he is today was because of Dean. Now he has nothing to go back for. So what's the use of trying?

"Why would I go with you to show me the way, to what? A life without my family? What kind of life is that? Dean doesn't want me anymore, so what's the use? I do love my dad, but that's not the same as Dean's. Give me one good reason why I should go with you, and are you really an Angel? How do I know that you're not a Demon trying to get me on your side?" Sam stepped back some more.

The Angel stood there and gazed down upon Sam with his icy blue eyes. The look made Sam very uncomfortable. Next thing Sam saw was a pair of wings spanning out from the back of the Angel. He spread his wings like an Eagle would when landing. Sam stood in shock when he saw the big black wings. Now he knew that he was talking with an Angel.

"Does that show you that I am indeed an Angel Sam? And that I am not a Demon as you say? Come to me and I'll take you on a journey. There are some things I have to show you and we don't have much time." The Angel walked up to Sam and touched his head.

Next thing Sam knew they were standing inside a hotel room. He didn't recognize the room they were standing in. He saw his dad and brother in bed wrapped in one another's arms. It broke his heart to see that they were so peaceful without him around; then he heard Dean calling him in his sleep and saw that he was crying. He stood there shocked to see Dean crying and calling out for him. He saw his dad wrap his arms tighter around Dean to comfort him. Sam looked at his dad and saw tears in his father's eyes, 'Dad doesn't cry, so why is he crying? It isn't because of me?' Sam said to himself.

"Sam, your brother and father are crying because they miss you and want you back. Dean had a breakdown before your dad got here, so he's comforting your brother. This shows you that your father and brother love you very much. They need you back to them Sam, more than you'll ever know." The Angel said.

"This only shows me that they are tired and frustrated. They are not worried about me at all. They even told me that I'm not a part of this family. So why are they crying over someone they never wanted?" Sam stood his ground to the Angel.

"Did you know that your brother got on a plane to come and see you? That's right Sam. Dean got into a plane just to be with you. Does that sound like a brother who doesn't care about you?" The Angel touched Sam's his eyes Sam knew they were on a plane and right in front of him was Dean and his dad. His brother was really on a plane heading for Billings where Sam was currently hospitalized. Sam saw the terror in Dean's eyes and had to laugh at his look, before he saw how scared his brother really was and it wasn't because of the plane.

"See Sam, Dean does care about you. If he took a plane to see you, your dad had to comfort your brother through the whole trip."

Sam saw bright lights and next he was standing in a Doctor's office with a doctor speaking with his dad and brother. He heard the doctor explain to them all of his injuries and what happened to him. He saw how his dad and brother paled at his condition. When he heard that he was on life support and could die, he saw how upset Dean got. He never saw his brother lose it like that and cried like he did. He watched as his dad comforted Dean and heard Dean's heart-wrenching words. He watched as Dean collapsed in his dad's hold and cried into his dad's arms. He couldn't believe that his brother, who supposedly hates him so much, cry like that. He looked at the Angel in disbelief and saw the truth in his eyes.

The Angel touched him again and he was in the room and saw himself lying in bed. He was hooked up to a lot of wires and machines. He watched as his dad and brother walked into the room where instantly Dean's knees went weak. He saw his dad place his brother on a chair next to his bed. Dean immediately began carding his hair like he did when they were younger. Seeing the tears in his eyes and the anguish on his face, Sam knew Dean felt responsible. 'Which he should be,' Sam said bitterly to himself.

The Angel watched as Sam took this all in that was before him. He could still see some doubt in Sam on how his family was left behind. Knowing that he had to do something, he closed his eyes and mumbled some words. Looking up, a figure came into view and Sam knew it was his mom.

"Sam, you need to stay with your brother and father baby. They need you more than you'll ever know honey. I know you feel like you're alone and no one loves you, but Sam that's further from the truth as you can see. Yes, your father and brother hurt you very much, I know that. I felt your heart break when they said those things baby. You got to know how much they love you Sammy, just like I do. I love you very much and you'll always be my baby boy, my precious gift. Right now, Sammy, you need to be there with them. Always remember you'll be in my heart." Mary hugged her son.

"Mom, I wanted to see you for a long time, now I get to and you want me to go back to them? Do you hate me for what's happened to you all those years ago? Is that why dad blames me for what happened in my room that night?"

"No Sammy, I don't hate you at all, baby. I could never hate you darling. The six months I spent with you was full of joy and love. Spending the time with you and Dean was the greatest joy I've ever felt. My heart was filled with love for the two of you. I wouldn't change that for the world Sammy. I cherished every moment I spent with you alone, just the two of us. You're my pride and joy baby. Just like Dean is your dad's pride and joy." Mary laid her hand on Sammy's cheek.

Sam leaned into his mom's touch with tears in his eyes. He wished this would never end being here with his mom. He felt her wipe his tears away with her thumb. That motion felt so familiar to him and the warmth that was behind the touch.

"Baby, I want you to know that no matter what happens I'll always be here for you. I'll always be in your heart Sammy and I'll never leave from there. Don't blame yourself for what happened to me. It's not your fault baby. I did only what a mother would do in that kind of situation: I protected you. I'll do it all over again Sammy and you know why? It's because of my love that I have for you baby. Don't cry Sammy, it's going to be okay. You'll see. Please do not feel guilty for what happened to me. I don't blame you baby." Mary took her son into her arms and hugged him tight.

"Mom, how is it your love feels so familiar to me? It's like I knew it my whole life."

Sam could stay there in his mom's embrace, feeling the love and warmth that was coming from her. He didn't want to let her go, and if he did, he wouldn't feel that kind of love again.

"Cause Sammy, my love comes through Dean when he is caring for you. That is why you know my love so well baby. Every time Dean gives you a hug; comforts, tucks you into bed, wipes your tears away; it's all the things a mother does for her child. I got to go Sammy. Just remember I love you and so does Dean. Give him another chance, honey, and your father too." With that, Mary was gone.

Sam looked around the room and only saw the Angel, his dad, brother, and presumably the Doctor in the room. He looked around for his mom with tears in his eyes. He wanted to be with her and feel the love that was coming from his mom. He finally made his decision on what he was going to do and that is what he wanted.

"How can I trust that what I'm seeing is real or fake? It could be your way of tricking me into going back. This whole scenario could be a ploy to get me to go back to my family, so you can make yourself look good for your own father. How do I know that you are not playing with my mind? That you are making me see what you want me to see? As far as I'm concerned, none of this is real to me. It's all made up to make you look like you care for me." Sam questioned the Angel.

Sam turned his head when he heard the machines going off very loudly. He saw his father and brother being pulled away from him. He could hear Dean screaming for him to stay with him and not to leave him. Watching as his dad held Dean down, preventing him to run away from the area. Listening to Dean's cries for him not to leave, and how much he loves his Sammy, broke Sam's heart. He didn't know what to do at that moment with Dean. What if it's just a ploy to get Sam back so he can leave him for good? Could Sam deal with that kind of rejection from the only person he loved more then life itself, and to have his dad look at him like he's some kind of excuse to have around?

As he watched his family, he could hear the Doctor and Nurse yelling at the others, telling them to get the paddles to restart his heart. He could hear Morgan saying he's flat-lining and that he's going into cardiac arrest. The staff worked frantically on him to keep him alive. He could hear Dean crying for him to live and not to leave him.

"Sammy! Please don't leave me. Not like this. Not after what I said to you. I'm sorry Sammy…please, don't leave me. God, dad I can't lose Sammy…please come back to me! Don't leave me alone Sammy. I can't live without you. Please don't die on me."

What Sam heard next really tore his heart out for his family. He felt sorry for them. The doctor called out the time of Death. He could hear Dean scream his name out.

Sam looked at the Angel and nodded his head. The Angel touched Sam's shoulder and they both disappeared into thin air.
