Chapter Fourteen - The Moment

He sucked in a breath, locked eyes with me and grinned…

Called me a wuss…

Then he laughed.

My soul froze as I swung my blade.

My actions sense-memory.

I've taken so many vamps' heads.

Never felt a thing.

Until now.

My heart stuttered as Benny's head rolled.

Gut clenching, I stood there trembling.

Guilt poisoning my insides.

Thoughts twisted and bent.

Benny's blood soaking into the pavement.

I closed my eyes to the sight.

Remembering other times.

Better times.

Purgatory.

Our ride out.

My adios…

Benny deserved better.

I did this for Sam.

My friend did this for Sam.

The End

All standard disclaimers apply.

What a powerful scene that was, two actors embracing the moment, living it and making it memorable for all. Ty surprised Jensen and they both went with what was happening, capturing a special moment and making it palpable. We feel for these guys and we care. That comes from awesome character definition from both the writers and the actors, realizing the truth of who these guys are and how they relate. I say, give us more Benny and Dean in S9!

Comments? Thanks for reading.
