Hey guys! I really enjoyed writing this chapter and I hope you enjoy reading it just as much! LOTS OF BAMF SAM!

Sam drove like a man gone mad. He was so close he couldn't slow down now. The fire up ahead of him shone like a beacon of hope. That's where he would find Gabriel. He was sure. He had to be.
Sam sped up to the barrier of police cars. He turned sharply and slammed on the brakes. A few of the cops jumped at the harsh squealing of his tiers. The rest of the cops reached for their guns. Sam jumped out of the car and didn't even take the time to shut the door. He walked straight up to them and flashed his ID because he didn't have time to deal with making nice. He bounced anxiously like a kid waiting in an amusement park line.
One cop took his ID and said, "You're not meant to be in the field." Sam felt anger rip through him. This man was delaying him from saving Gabriel and that could not be tolerated. Sam snatched his ID back and snapped, "I have clearance to any crime scene." The officer opened his mouth but Sam interrupted. "My agent is in that building so you will let me pass or I will force you to move."
He would normally feel bad for abusing his status as part of the agency but, right now he didn't care. Sam itched to grab his agent and pull him close. Sam needed Gabriel safe now. He need to see that smirk, hear that laugh, and watch those bright eyes shine with mischief. He was prepared to do anything to get to Gabriel.
The knowledge that Gabriel was in danger had driven Sam to near insanity. Everything he did revolved around his agent's safety. He had once been patient but, knowing Gabriel might be just out of reach made waiting not an option. Every second waisted could be the second Gabriel turned into a casualty. The officer nodded and lifted the tape quickly. He shivered from a phantom chill at the deparation in Sam's eyes. He'd seen similar looks one a victims family and a serial killer that just couldn't stop.
Sam smiled and ducked under the tape. Then, he ran through the forest. A person can never know how fast they can be until their everything depends on it. Sam's feet pounded against the forest floor. He stumbled to a sudden stop at the sight of a dead body.
The man was tall and his face was unrecognizable. He'd been shot in the back of the head and the bullet had exited from his face. Sam's attention was drawn to a piece of blood spattered paper with his name written on it.
He felt relief slam into him like a punch to the gut. His knees felt weak. Gabriel's scribbled writing almost made him sob. Proof enough that Gabriel had written this. He'd been alive. He could still be alive. Gabriel wasn't lying dead next to the tall man. Sam tucked the letter into his jean pocket and started to run again. He pulled out his gun and as he heard others crashing through the forest.
They were frantic and ungraceful. Sam had no trouble in shooting the first person that came into view. The others didn't even slow down. It was every man for himself in their world. Sam grabbed the screaming man and asked, "Is Gabriel Novak alive?" The man's brown eyes widened and he gasped for air through the pain of Sam's bullet. Sam shook him. "Tell me!" The man nodded frantically muttering nonsense. His eyes rolled back in his head.
Sam dropped the now limp man and ran after the noises of snapping twigs and panicked cries. He followed the running men into a clearing. It was filled with cars and Sam felt helpless as he looked around. His eyes scanned the clearing. Gabriel could have been in any one of those cars. Sam stood there completely lost for a few minutes before he realized the cars were moving down a dirt road out of the clearing.
Sam swore so bad Dean would be proud and chased after the nearest car. He ran as fast as he could and just barely managed to grab hold of top of the car. He stumbled as the car started to pick up speed. "Not good. Oh Sh*t!" With a grunt he pulled himself up. His feet found the grove where the trunk met the bottom of the car and he sighed in relief.
Sam had a moment to steady himself. He searched for a better hand hold on the top of the car and exclaimed, "Sh*t!" when the glass in front of him shattered suddenly. He looked behind him and jumped as another bullet whizzed past his head. There was only one car behind him and the passenger had noticed Sam wasn't supposed to be there. That was just his luck now wasn't it? He shot again and Sam cried out and tightened his grip as the bullet skimmed his side and caused blood to run down his leg in scarlet rivers.
He forced himself to let go of the car with one hand leaving only one shaking arm holding him to his ride to Gabriel. With the other hand, Sam grabbed his pistol and shot at the driver. He was frantic but forced himself to take a breath as Gabriel's voice from a distant memory entered his mind. "Don't rush it. You get one shot in battle. That is if Im not around to save your nerdy little behind. Close one eye." Sam closed his left eye and forced himself not to flinch as another bullet blew past. It hit the car mirror and caused the driver to shout.
"Good Samzilla. You could almost pass for one overgrown way hot agent. Hold you breath and fire kiddo. Destroy that target!" Sam could almost feel Gabriel's fingers on his arm helping him to keep it steady and Gabriel's warm chest pressed up against him. Sam held his breath and as he pulled the trigger. As the other car swerved off the dirt road and into a tree Sam could hear Gabriel's praise. "Bang! You shoot better than James Bond. That target sure knows who's boss. Maybe I should take you out into the field. That is if you weren't such a girl." Sam swung his shooting arm back to the top of his ride and pulled himself through the broken window.
The driver was now frantically trying to not to crash and glancing fearfully at Sam. It was almost too easy for Sam to knock him out. He shoved the man over and took the wheel. He took deep breathes and followed the rest of the cars out of the forest. "The things I do for that jerk. Gabriel owes me so bad."

Lucifer was having a shitty day to put it lightly. Of course his little brother would find a way to burn the whole f***ing building down! Only Gabriel. Lucifer would bet good money on his little brother not even being human. Of coarse Gabriel would find a way to make a friend while being chained up waiting for execution. Was it just Lucifer, or did the whole damn world bend over backwards for his little brother? His oldest prisoner had stabbed him to let the little creep live!
Lucifer looked down at his bandaged wound and grimaced as the car hit a bump. It took every ounce of self control he had left not the murder his little brother who was unceremoniously dumped in the backseat and shackled to the car seat. Lucifer tried to think happy positive thoughts like Michael's reaction to finding Gabriel's broken body and the way he wouldn't be able to run his little agency. Lucifer couldn't wait to barge through those weakened doors and burn it to the ground.
He smirked and glanced at Gabriel in the backseat. He tisked and shook his head. "Oh little bro you've made one big mistake." Lucifer couldn't let his men think of him as a liar. So, he would wait until tomorrow to paint the walls with his brother's blood. He always thought the house needed more color...

Dean was furious. No, of coarse he couldn't get a few days off to watch over Castiel like Cas did every single day for him. No some son of a bitch had to start a fire and Dean had to be the one to sort it out. Dean was now speeding down the high way with a police siren on top of his car. Dean didn't think it could get any worse but he needed backup and now Balthazar was in the passenger seat. Sometimes he swore his family had to be cursed.
Balthazar rolled his eyes and said, "Dean will you stop looking out the window like a pissy teenage girl. Little Cassie can look after himself. You and I are stuck in the truly marvelous car ride the least you can do is talk to me.' Balthazar gave Dean a smile and waved one hand with flourish in a go on motion.
Dean glared. "Shut up you stupid brit or sam and I-" Balthazar cut him off and said, "Oh yes Sam. Running off to save his lover. So romantic and tragic. I didn't even know they were dating." Balthazar actually looked hurt that no one had told him.
Dean raised and eyebrow. "Are you trying to gossip?" Balthazar pretended to think before shrugging and exclaiming, "Yes you moron!" Dean shook his head and refused to answer.
Balthazar stared to sing one direction and Dean snapped, "Fine! Fine. They weren't dating are you happy now?" Balthazar smiled and said, "Poor Sam hummm. Does Gabriel even like him? Chasing after someone that doesn't love you is such a tragic fate. Is Sam perhaps turning into a desperate stalker?"
Dean couldn't believe he was having this conversation. "Gabriel doesn't let his real feelings show that often." Balthazar nodded and said in his best diva impression, "Don't I know it!" Dean raised his eyebrows and his eyes widened in a, 'Are you freakin' serious right now?' expression. Balthazar cleared his throat and said in his normal voice, "I got a bit carried away. Do go on Deano."
Dean sighed and said, "Listen all I really know is Sam is head over heals for the little jerk and if Gabriel hurts my little brother I'll rip his lungs out." Balthazar nodded seriously and there was blissful moment of silence. Balthazar crushed the brief peace. "But really have they even kissed yet?" Dean choked on air at the image that put into his head.
Balthazar smiled smugly and commented, "That's one nasty cough Dean."
Dean didn't think he had ever turned up his music that loud but even having his eardrums explode would be better than gossiping about Sammy's romantic life. Anything would be better than listening to Balthazar a moment longer. Sweet ACDC was his rescue.
Balthazar smugly leaned back in his chair and smirked at Dean.

I think gossiping Balthazar is my new favorite thing to write. I was listening to Marina and The Diamonds and it put the diva in me. PLEASE let me know what you thought about this chapter! Gabriel will be awake in the next one. He's so fun to write but I wanted to focus on some different characters this chapter. Let me know if you have any ideas, comments, or want a character written more in the story. I'll try to update soon. : D .
