Dean couldn't believe what he was looking at. This was unbelievable. After an entire year of misery. After an entire year of Hell on earth, there he was. Sam Winchester was standing right in front of him. The man that caused this all but for the greater good of every hunter to come. Not only that but the future of mankind. The earth had been a better place ever since the demons were sent back to Hell. Dean didn't care about any of that now. All he cared about was Sam and that he was back with whats left of the family.
"Sammy? Is that really you?" Through the year Dean had so many hallucinations and three or four tricksters were pretending to be Sam. Dean felt different about this one because instead of some long lecture he was greeted with a tearful hug. Dean had no further questions. He knew this was Sam. "Yeah, it's me." Sam told him. At this point tears were rolling down Dean's eyes. He couldn't hold them back anymore.
"How did you get out? When I got yanked out of the pit they told me that they wouldn't save another Winchester." Dean said questioning Sam. "Well Dean, they didn't have to. Because I went to Heaven." When Sam said this Dean suprisingly smiled. He was so worried about Sam and then he went to Hell. He knew he would give in soon. But those worries were worthless. He didn't have to worry. Sam's daily prayers showed him the path to Heaven.
"You made it to Heaven? Congrats!" Dean said so happy for him. "Yeah, it was pretty amazing. You know Bobby did get a rocking chair." Sam said referring to the last words of their great friend. "I bet he caused mayhem on that thing huh?" Dean said joking. Sam scoffed. They were both happy. Sam said something that lit up the room and made Dean smile. "Got a case yet?"
"There is the Sam I know!" Dean had waited a year to hear that and Sam waited even longer to say it. Dean found a really interesting case. There was a British man who had brutally murdered 10 people and when the cops showed up he vanished. The case was in Lawrence. They were happy to go back home.
They made the drive to Lawrence and the Impala was blaring AC/DC when they pulled in. Sam and Dean were yelling the words to "Back in Black". They shut off the music at the crime scene and started talking to the county police. "Did you happen to get a look on the suspect?" Sam asked. "Um, yes sir. Here he is." The sherriff showed them a picture of what one of the deputies drew.
They couldn't believe it. The picture depicted, him. The picture was a drawing of, of Crowley.
