The story takes place right after the season 10 finale, after Dean killed Death, the Mark of Cain was removed and Darkness was released into the world. I mentioned before, new characters will be added and thrown in the story and I will bring back several former characters from the show in the upcoming future.
Chapter 78 A Capture and a Rescue
Dean woke up and found himself lying on the hard and rusty floor. His body ached from his face, his shoulders and back from the brawl he had with that dragon and he began to wipe some of the blood from his bruised face with his hand. He looked up and saw the crate above and realized where he was, which was the exact same place he and Sam found those virgins locked up which was some kind of dungeon below. He then looked around and saw that he was alone in this prison and he suddenly thought about Ava wondering what happened to her. Did she get away or do those dragons have her and if they do what are they doing to her right now? Dean quickly sat up and felt the more throbbing pain in his head as he rubbed it a bit. Then he heard footsteps which prompted him to quickly stand up despite his legs aching a bit. He kept looking up to see the dark-haired dragon who he fought with approach the crate and look down at him glaring right into his eyes with that same sinister look.
"Oh good, you're awake, I'm glad, I was beginning to get a little worried" he said with a sarcastic tone and a grin on his face.
"Hey, didn't know you cared" Dean retorted sarcastically himself.
"I'm afraid your little lady friend went AWOL on you but no worries, we'll find her yet and have her join you then the fun can really begin" said the dragon.
Dean just shrugged his shoulder trying to act unphased although he was really glad Ava got away.
"Well, that's chicks for you up and bail" said Dean with smirk.
"She couldn't have gone far, my comrades are out looking for her right now, and I have you right where I want you" said the dragon.
"So, what's the plan, we play a game of dungeons and dragons before you have me for supper?" asked Dean sarcastically.
"Let's say I'm not going to kill you yet, I have plans for you. You see, this is payback for killing my brother the last time you were here and releasing the virgins we captured. After I'm through with you, you will wish I just killed you. You really shouldn't have come back you know, that was your fatal mistake" said the dragon now a stern tone.
"Well, you know I what can I say, I couldn't resist guess I always have to learn the hard way" said Dean sarcastically tying to act like he isn't phased by any of this although he was quite scared, scared for himself.
As for Ava, he just hoped that she doesn't get captured and comes through for him.
"By the way, seriously, why the hell did you come back here for anyway?' asked the dragon with a scour look on his face.
"Well, seriously, believe or not we came here on a mission in order to help stop the Darkness, you know the sky going black and all" said Dean.
"Yeah, we're are aware of what is happening all around the world with no daylight and chaos all over and we are prepared for the worst by taking precaution and rarely venturing outside, remaining here safe in these sewers cut off from all of that" said the dragon.
"So, you think you can protect yourselves shut up down here, hate to break it to you buddy, Darkness affects everything, nothing is immune not even this dungeon" said Dean.
"Let us worry about how to take care of ourselves from this Darkness alright then" said the dragon getting impatient.
"Fine, just wanted to give you the heads up there" said Dean smirking.
Suddenly there was more footsteps and then the second dragon appeared.
"There still no trace of the woman yet, some of the others are still out looking for her now" he told the dark-haired dragon.
"Good, she can't be far, just keep an eye on this one for now" said the dark-haired dragon looking at Dean.
Then he stepped out while the other dragon remained behind. Some time had passed, Dean didn't know how much but he has been sitting there in that dungeon locked up for a quite awhile now and was growing quite bored. There was no use in trying to pry open the crate as it wouldn't budge as he had tried when the dragons stepped out of the area and he was now growing more worried about Ava and what happened to her. Have the other dragons caught up to her did they kill her. Of course if that happened he would have known about it by now. Dean just looked up and stared at the other dragon who was now posting guard.
"Hey, Skippy you got the time?" asked Dean trying to be sarcastic since he was bored and just wanted to rile this dragon's chains.
The dragon just ignored him.
"Hey, I ask a question here, what's wrong dragon, cat got your tongue?" Dean remarked smirking.
The dragon still kept ignoring him not even looking in his direction.
"Oh, I wonder do you dragons eat cats by the way?" Dean remarked again trying to be sarcastic.
The dragon turned and glanced down at him for a brief second then turned away walked away a bit.
"Hey just trying to make some conversation there Skippy" said Dean in his typical smart-Alec tone.
Suddenly there was sound coming from some distance off and both Dean and the dragon heard it and their heads turned at the same time. The dragon looking suspicious suddenly walked off to check it out. Dean was worried that it was Ava and she could be in danger if that dragon catches her but Ava is tough and capable, he's sure she can handle herself if that's her especially if she has the sword or least he hopes she has the sword. Dean just listened and heard the dragon's footsteps get lighter and lighter as he assumed the dragon left. After several seconds had passed, Dean heard the dragon's crying out in pain then a slight thud. Then after several seconds he heard footsteps again but these footsteps sounded a bit different. The footsteps were getting closer and just as he stood up staring out at the crates, he saw none other than Ava now standing near the crates looking down at him in one of her hands was the sword which was now bloody at the end.
"Ava!" cried out Dean his face lit up as he was glad to see her and that she was okay.
"Sssh" replied Ava as she placed her finger to her mouth.
"I'm glad you got away" he told her.
"Yeah well I ran as fast as I ever ran was able to lose that dragon who was chasing me and I was hiding out planning my next move which was to rescue you. I could hear them looking for me but I didn't make a move even held my breath" she said.
"Anyway, you're a sight for sore eyes that's sure" said Dean smiling.
"You too, I was afraid that they had killed you, I felt so guilty leaving you behind but I didn't know what else to do, I didn't think I could take the both of them by myself, they're stronger than I expected" she told him.
"Don't worry, I'm just glad you got out, but you better hurry, Skippy there and his pal might show up any minute" said Dean.
"Yeah, I saw the dark-haired one take off and had to hide somewhere so he couldn't find me. Then I saw your watch dog guarding and I decided to distract him to lure him out I came up from behind and slit him, he didn't know what hit him so you don't have to worry about him anymore" said Ava.
"God, you're wonderful" said Dean now really impressed.
Ava just smiled but then the smile faded.
"Anyway, I got to get you outta here" she said.
Then she bended over hoping to pry open the crate.
"I already tried it won't budge" said Dean.
"I'm never giving up, I'm getting you outta here" she told him.
Then Ava used the skinny flashlight that was small enough to fit between the crate bars and attempted to pry the crate open with it. It was quite hard and it took several attempts as Dean was growing impatient.
"Hurry, that that other dragon might return any minute" he warned her.
"Just give me a sec" said Ava as she kept trying to pry open the crate.
Finally, after few more attempts she manage to loosen the crate a bit as she pulled it open but before she can finish, she heard footsteps and Ava turned around in time to see the dark-haired dragon standing some distance from her.
"Well, nice seeing you again, I knew you would return eventually to try to rescue your little boyfriend here" he said with a sinister look on face. Then he went on. "But you are not going to succeed dear" he said.
"Well, I don't know I manage to gank your partner afterall" Ava fired back.
"Yeah, that you will pay for that dearly luv" he said.
"Ava run!" cried out Dean.
"Running isn't an option" said the dragon and then he lunged towards Ava.
Ava dodged out of his way as he made his attack and she stood a few feet from him holding up the sword. The dragon wasn't afraid and lunged towards her again and managed to knock the sword out of her and as she prepared to slit him with it. Now unarmed, the dragon pounced on Ava with and with his glowing hand he raised at Ava and burned her on the left shoulder as Ava screamed and shoved him away and backed away from him. He lunged at her again and soon they engaged in a fight as she started throwing punched and karate kicks at him but the dragon retaliated throwing some punches and smacks of his own and Ava was able to dodge some of them but she got struck in the face a couple of times. Then swinging back his arm he was able to strike Ava with all his strength knocking her down the ground, and soon he was on top of her as he tried to burn her again with his glowing hand but Ava managed to grab a hold of his arm and was trying to wrestle it away from her face but he was too strong and she was losing.
Around this time, Dean managed to jump up and attempt to open the crate which was loosened and he finally was able to open it and he jumped up made his way out. He looked up to see that dragon on top of Ava and without a moment to lose he looked around for the sword which he saw on the floor a few distances from the dragon and Ava. Dean ran for it, picked it up and ran to where the dragon was who hadn't even noticed that he had gotten out and ran over to him and from behind, he stabbed him in his back real hard. The dragon let go of Ava and howled in so much pain before he fell on top of Ava now lifeless. Ava just sighed in relief as she had been so scared she was a goner for a moment.
"Hey, you okay?" Dean asked.
"Yeah, I alright" she said as she pulled the dragon off her. "But I had better days" she told him half jokingly.
Dean then bent over and reach out for her arm and helped her up off the floor. Then they both looked at the dragon's dead body.
"Well, we slayed ourselves a dragon or dragons" said Ava.
"Hey, we better hurry up and get out this dungeon before his cronies start showing up" said Dean.
With that, Dean pulled out his knife he had in his pocket and then he bent down and unbuttoned the dragon's shirt and began using the knife to cut out his heart. Ava was kind of grossed out by it a little but she was used to seeing gruesome things as a hunter. Then, Dean opened Ava's knapsack pulled out a little box and placed the heart inside it and put the box back in the knapsack closing it up.
"Okay, lets split this place" Dean said to her.
They both started to leave and as they walked out they found the body of the other dragon who's throat had been slit.
"Good job" said Dean as Ava nodded and soon they walked off and were back strolling in the sewer as they looked for their way out.
They walked for awhile looking around their surroundings hoping not to run into more dragons. Their hopes were dashed because in no time, two more dragons showed up both creepy looking young men who appeared in front of them preparing to attack. "You two aren't going anyway now" said one of the dragons as they walked closer towards them preparing to attack. Dean turned and nodded to Ava and she nodded back and then he cried out, "Now!" Within seconds, Dean and Ava were fighting the two dragons as much as they could not holding back at all. Dean managed to cut one of the dragons with the sword on the arm and he staggered back and after a few more punched and a kick to the head, Dean managed to slit the dragon killing him. Ava was holding her own with the other dragon and Dean intervened to help and stabbing him in the neck with the sword. Not waiting to see if they had killed him, Dena and Ava soon took off running as fast as they could, stopping for anything.
After awhile, they slowed down and stopped running now both nearly out of breath. They then kept walking again looking around the sewer praying there wouldn't be any more dragons popping out for them to fight or kill. Luckily, they didn't encounter anymore of those creatures and though it took some time that felt like forever, they managed to find their way out of the sewer and were outside once again neither of them having ever been any more relieved.
"Oh God, we made it" said Ava still out of breath a little as the two of them soon started running again until they found the van. "I will say this I hope I never see another sewer again" Ava told Dean after they stopped near the van.
"Well, all I got to say is we make a good team there" said Dean with sly look on his face.
"For sure" said Ava grinning right back at him.
In no time, they entered the van and this time Dean decided to drive and they drove off. Over an hour later, they were sitting at a bar having a couple drinks and supper listening to good music unwinding after their little adventure despite both of them receiving some light bruises their faces a few scratches they were now in good spirits. They had already rested a bit at the motel before deciding to head to the bar for drinks and some food. After they were finished eating, the two of them went the pool table and started playing some pool. Dean was gloating that he was winning this time.
"Oh I so kicked your ass" he bragged after their game.
"Well we both kicked good ass tonight" said Ava grinning back at him.
"That we did" Dean replied knowing what she was referring to.
Ava just shook her head a bit. "You know this night is so weird that we slayed some dragons that actually look like human beings and just like us and now, we can just be here and chill, playing a game of pool" she told him.
"That's the life a hunter you know" he said.
Ava nodded. "Yeah, I know, sometimes I feel our lives are so surreal that if I wasn't living it, I would be totally not believe any of it" she told him.
"Yeah, I get it" Dean replied.
The two continued to glare at each other and soon the music changed to fast-dancing to smooth slow-dancing song. The song suddenly made Ava think about the time she and Dean had that slow-dance when they were in that parallel world and a part of her felt like slow-dancing with Dean right there and now. Dean was thinking about the same thing as they kept glaring at each other. Dean turned to look at the dance floor which was empty and although a part of him almost wanted to take Ava out onto the dance floor right now and start dancing with her he didn't do it.
Instead he just turned back to Ava and asked, "Hey, you wanna get out of here now, it's getting kind of late?"
Ava just nodded her head and said, "Sure".
Real late that night, they were back at the motel. Ava took a shower before going to bed and changed into a long pajama shirt and unpinned her hair. Dean had taken off his shirt and shoes and had on a white undershirt. His eyes couldn't help but light up when he saw Ava in her pajamas now with her hair dangling down on her shoulders, she really looked hot right now that she doesn't always look hot. Both of them acted like it was no big deal over the two of them sleeping in a motel room in double beds like a couple of roommates but a bit of awkwardness was there.
"Well, I'm think we should get some shut eye right now, since we have get up very early tomorrow" said Ava.
"Yeah, well night Ava" said Dean as he got into his bed.
"Night Dean" Ava replied back and she turned off lamp and crawled into her bed.
The two both laid in bed awake for a while thinking about everything that happened to them that night and thinking about one another before finally both going to sleep.
I know this took a bit long but I said before I may start posting chapters monthly from now on, I still hope to receive some reviews even possibly suggestions on few chapters. Thank you.
