Sam was quiet, lost in his thoughts as he sorted through their belongings. Dean had gone out a few hours ago and just came back with clothes and other things for Mary. He wasn't sure where Dean had gotten everything but didn't bother to ask.

Mary was slowly coming back to her body, sitting up at least and even able to move her fingers and hands to look through the collection Dean had brought her, managing a laugh at some of the things.

Her laugh was rough, like her throat was dry and caked with dirt, muscles that haven't moved in ages, and almost like it hurt her to even sound.

It was the most beautiful sound they'd ever heard.

Sam watched her for a few moments before he looked back at the book that they had managed to find the spell to bring her back, slowly leafing through the rest of the book just to see what other spells there were. He had done this before, when they had first managed to find the spell, but only to make sure that there had been nothing else in there that they could use.

Now he was going into depths into it, wanting to know what else the book contained. Most of the spells had to deal with death and life and bringing them back to life. Cracking open the Empty to pull open a soul.

There were even a few spells that said they could open purgatory and release some of the monsters in there, apparently there were even spells to control them.

Sam was interested to see if that was true but at the same time not willing to see what would happen if the spell failed.

Having a pet Leviathan would be interesting though.

The rest of the spells were about heaven and Hell, just the single spell for breaking into the Empty. Some were even about caging and controlling angels, which would be interesting if the angels ever returned to earth and not hid away in heaven.

He marked those spells to be looked at later.

"Alright so I think I speak for all of us," Dean said, getting everyone's attention. "What do we do now?"

Sam closed his book and turned so that he could face his mother and brother, leaning back in his seat. "Mom? Anything you want to do specifically?"

Mary thought for a moment, clearing her throat to try to speak. "No." she managed to get out.

Nodding Sam looked at his brother. "Part of me kinda wants to find your dad and kill him for killing you." he said, watching Mary make a face at that. "You don't want us to?"

Mary tried to speak, a small frustrated growl escaping her when she couldn't talk as much as she wanted. Dean walked over to her and took her hand in his so that she could tap out whatever she wanted.

"She says that she sold her soul for her dad, she doesn't want to kill him then because it feels that she wasted a deal." Dean translated for her.

Sam breathed out at that, not sure of what he could say to change her mind. "Why did you go see him anyway?" he asked instead, waiting for her to tap her message.

"She said she just wanted to check on him." Dean told for her. "Said that after her mom died on a hunt she'd just check in on him to make sure he was alive. She just got too close to him last time and he caught her in a devils trap."

"Did he know who you were or did he think you were just a regular demon?" Sam asked, wondering what exactly had happened.

Mary tapped out her message to Dean. "She tried to convince him by telling him things only she knew but he didn't care." Dean said for her. "He didn't keep her long, she even tried to tell him about us, but he didn't listen to her."

Sam closed his eyes and breathed out slowly, fingers twitching slightly. "Back to what we should do." he said slowly. "The Princes did say that they'll be in touch so we have to keep that in mind. Otherwise, anything else is game."

Mary stared at them for a long moment before she tapped out a message to Dean, causing his eyes to widen.

"Mom, no." he protested. "Why? There's no point to it."

"What?" Sam asked. "What did she say?"

Dean turned to look at him. "She said that she wants to talk to Winchester." he said, a tone of disgust in his voice.

I do not own Supernatural.
