A/N - I hope everyone is enjoying this story so far. And this is the part of the pilot that made everything fall into place
OOOOOOOOOOOO
The Impala tore down the road with one headlight busted. Inside Sam had their dad's journal and a map open on his lap and was trying to find coordinates with a ruler and a flashlight tucked under his cheek.
"Okay, so here's where dad went, it's called Black Water Ridge, Colorado." Sam said, after finding out where the coordinates would lead them to.
"Sounds charming; so how far?" Dean replied
"Oh, about six hundred miles." Sam answered, while still looking at the map.
"Hey, if we shag ass, we can make it by morning" Dean mused, looking at the time which showed 11:17 AM.
"Dean, umm..." Sam hesitated after what Dean said.
"Let me guess you're not going?" His brother asked disappointed, but not showing it.
"The interview's in like 10 hours. I gotta be there, plus I promised Jessica I'll be back by then." Sam said looking at him.
Dean nodded disillusioned "Yeah, yeah, whatever, I'll take you back home."
OOOOOOOOOOOO
A few hours later they pulled up in front of the apartment with Dean still frowning. Sam got out and leaned over to look through the window.
"So call me, if you find dad. And maybe I'll hook up with you later and dad can meet his granddaughter. Oh and Dean, I think you should also fix the busted headlight" Sam said
"Yeah, alright and I will once I have time." Dean replied. Just as Sam started to walk away, he spoke again. "Sam, you know, we made one hell of a team back there."
"Yeah, we did." Sam agreed.
"Hey, Sam tell my niece happy birthday" Dean said with a smile on his face.
"Yeah, I'll tell her and you're more then welcome to stop by, whenever you want to visit her and oh I forgot to give you this." The younger man said, handing Dean a picture of Gracie.
"I'll think about that, so thanks for the permission Sammy and hey thanks for the picture." Dean said as Sam walked away into the apartment. He waited until his brother disappeared inside then drove off.
Once inside the building Sam walked up the steps to the apartment. Upon entering, he realized how quiet it was.
"Jess, you home?" He yelled.
He saw a plate with a piece of cake wrapped in plastic wrap sitting on the table with a note attached, saying "Missed you! Love you and saved you a piece of Gracie birthday cake." He picked up the plate and the fork and started to eat it as he crept towards the bedroom in order to not wake up Gracie. He walked past the closed door to her room and entered Jess and his bedroom with a smile on his face. Sitting on the bed, he shut his eyes and flopped down onto his back.
Suddenly, something wet dripped onto his face. He flinched and opened his eyes, gaspping in horror at what he sees, as it will haunt him for the rest of his life - Jessica pinned to the ceiling, staring down at him, bleeding from a gapping wound on her belly.
Sam let out a scream of terror for her, "Nooooooo…!"
At that very moment Jessica, the love of his live burst into flames, the fire spreading across the ceiling in a matter of seconds.
Unaware of what was going on inside, Dean knocked at the door, opening it, when he didn't get an answer. Looking around, he called out "Sam, where you at?", when he heard his brother's screams coming from what has to be the bedroom.
"Jess!" Sam screamed.
Dean ran into the bedroom and saw Jess pinned to the ceiling on fire, just like their mom twenty-two years ago. Dean let out screams of his own for his brother "Sam! Sam! Come on, we got to go"
He started to pull Sam out of the room, the kid struggling against him and screaming all the while.
"Jess, Jess, no…! Noooo…!"
Both of them stumbled and fell down the stairs and out the front porch onto the grass, as the building burst into flames. Sam was back on his feet within seconds, heading back towards the flames. Dean tackled him to the ground, pinning his arms behind him and wrestling him to stay down, while Sam continued screaming and yelling.
"Let me go, Dean, man please, I need to go back inside pl..."
He was cut off by the sound of sirens and blue-red lights blazing through the neighborhood towards them. Fire officers trained their hoses at the burning windows, while police officers tried to assist Dean in restraining Sam.
"Son was there anyone else inside with you?" the officer asked, trying to keep Sam from running back inside the burning building.
The young man screamed at the officer, trying to tell him to go back inside for his fiancée and daughter, yet the officer only kept telling him it was too late, no one could have survived this fire.
"Sam you need to calm down, they are trying their best." Dean said, trying to calm Sam down and at the same time worrying about Jessica and Gracie. Just then Sam looked at him with hatred and anger in his eyes.
"Why didn't you come sooner?" Sam looked at him, tears streaking the soot on his face. "Why did you come here at all? If I hadn't left …, if I had been there...This is all your fault, if you didn't come here at all to get me Jessica and my little girl would still be alive, its all you fault!" Sam screamed at him, at the same time also realizing, it was his fault just as much. If he just would have said no to dean things would have been fine.
Dean could feel the hate radiating off Sam and for a split second it was directed at him. He hates himself, his actions responsible for ruining his brother life. And then it was gone and there was despair and pain for his brother and what he lost.
Dean just stood there, feeling guilty for what happened. Sam was right he, shouldn't have come here in the first place. Now instead of just missing his daughter birthday, he lost her and Jessica forever. His brother's sobbing and crying broke Dean's heart. Not only did his brother loose a daughter and a fiancée, he lost a niece, which he never even got to know. Just then Dean heard a voice calling Sam name and he looked around till he spotted a figure running towards them.
"Sam! Sam! Oh my God, what happened? No, no, this can't be happening again!" An unknown voice called out
When Sam heard the voice, he looked up; his vision blurry with tears. What he saw shocked him and if possible broke his heart even more.
Authors note: dun dun Ok, so who do you think Sam is seeing to make him feel like this?
