The amulet
given to dean a long time ago . It was a basis of their brotherhood . A symbol of their trust. Over the years , in times of distress n pain , it had ended up becoming a source of comfort to dean . Dean loved the amulet . Sammy gave it to him . Though initially meant for their father , it had ended up being a base for their love . While Sammy was away at Stanford , the amulet was the only thing that kept dean grounded to the earth as he was consumed in grief of separation from Sammy.
When they had been reunited it seemed as though the amulet too seemed to be overjoyed . Then Sam was killed and dean was left with nothing but memories of Sam and a symbol of their relationship - the amulet. it comforted him through it all . Then the damned deal was made that eventually ended with dean burning away in hell . Even in hell , dean felt that a ghost of the amulet was still a part of him that couldn't be destroyed by any no. of blades or fires . It gave him strength to hold on. Reminded him who he was while hell burnt away at his humanity . Reminded him why abstaining from torturing was important . Made him remember Sammy and gave a reason to his denial towards Alistair .
Then Castiel flew in and plucked him out of hell and dean expected everything to go back to normal . However it wasn't . Hell changed both him and Sammy . Made him weaker and Sammy stronger . It was in times of these when memories of hell threatened to take over that the amulet became a source of comfort through tough times .
Then the bond between him and Sam started getting chipped away . Trust became as thin and light as dust . They became more like strangers than brothers . Lies , mistrust , excuses charred away the once strong bond between them that was feared by demons and humans alike . Until they day came when dean became so broken and tired of it all that he chucked the thing into the dustbin . He could feel Sam's questioning gaze on him and tears rolling behind his back . But those tears had lost their value a long time ago thought dean bitterly . He felt tears welling up in his eyes and he brushed them away .
then the amulet was picked up by Sam n hours were spent crying over it under the covers of coarse sheets in different Motels. After the war was over, with Sam gone, dean no longer had the amulet to get him through it all . As dean buried Sam a bulge in Sam's pocket caught his eye . All waterworks started escalating as he held the piece of metal - the basis of their brotherhood that he once threw away . All his time away from Sam , with Lisa , dean had an odd sense of relief feeling that familiar weight settle on his neck . His neck had been feeling bare from a long time now as his heart had been without Sam's love .
Then Sam returned and the bond between though not perfect was once again reformed and the familiar trust returned . Now as time went by the trust became as strong as it ever could . The amulet stayed on dean's neck as it was a sign of the unspoken love , trust and unity between them . and it will continue to stay the same way as time goes by . It will still provide a sense of relief n comfort when a hunt goes bad , when bad memories take over , when pain numbs the entire being . It will still be there for years to come n will become a memory , a souvenir or their love their trust n comfort . The amulet defined who they were . and was a symbol of their unity away from the rest of the world
The end
