(Dean Winchester)
Yeah, I said it out loud and I watch Ruby's new face as it goes through a bunch of different expressions ending up with the bitchy one staring at me. "I could care less if you go to hell, go directly to hell, do not pass go, do not collect two hundred dollars, Ruby," I tell her "but I sold my soul to the devil to keep Sam alive so no all encompassing demon exorcism."
"You know?" Sammy asks me his voice so low I can barely hear him.
"About the demon blood? Yeah, Castiel told me," I tell him and Ruby's hand goes to her throat.
"Castiel's here?" she wants to know and I see that the little bitch is actually scared.
"No," I tell her and add, more for Sam than for her, "He's the angel God sent to get me out of hell because 'they have work for me to do'."
"Do you think that work might be me?" Sam asks, his face a blank slate without his eyes.
"I don't think so," I tell him but I'm only guessing and add, "You were pretty well off the radar until you killed one of the Galearri, so I don't think Castiel knows it was you."
"I thought angels knew everything," he says and so did I until I found out that they're on a need to know basis and I tell him so.
"But he sent you to kill whoever killed the priest, right?"
"Not gonna happen, Sammy," I say in my best Dana Carvey doing George Bush voice.
"Even if he sends you back to hell for disobeying?" Ruby wants to know.
I'm flashing back to some godawful pain and fear but I made the deal and I'll live...okay, I'll die by it, again, if I need to. And besides, just because Sammy was force fed demon blood when he was a baby, it doesn't mean he's a demon now but I'm not gonna take any chances. "Disobeying? You think I'm on a short leash, like you?" I ask her. She sneers, definitely her best feature, then she feels it at the same time I do and we both look over at Santiago.
He's just staring at us like he's a million miles away and my brand is suddenly burning red hot and he smiles and his eyes turn black. I try and reach for the nail but suddenly I'm sailing through the air and into the wall where I'm hung up like a portrait of somebody's grandmother. Ruby goes for him and she's knocked on her ass and Santiago starts to move toward Sam.
I yell out but Sam's already turned toward the tow truck driver and he just holds out his hand. Santiago gags a couple of times then starts to puke up demon. When it's all over, there's a smokey, slimy, black pile of shit that burns away to nothing and I know that I'm right to be worried about Sam and that Castiel did send me to kill my brother.
