Chapter 5 (by teamfreewillangel)
"Where is he?" Dean asked. Cas didn't answer and just grabbed Dean's arm. Five seconds later, they were in the middle of a forest. A light mist had fallen over the area, making the land around them look mystical. Dean pulled his arm out of Cas's grasp and began to walk around. The earth was muddy beneath his boots.
"Where are we?" Dean asked.
"Lakeland Forest." Cas said. "It's a park not far from where you were staying."
"I thought Gabe said he was taking Sam someplace where we'd never see him again. I don't think a forest far from the motel is considered in that catagory." Dean said. Cas began to walk towards an old tree. It was a Weeping Willow, and something about it seemed to give Dean the creeps.
"Dean!" Cas yelled, running forward. Dean was right behind him. That's when he saw what Cas had.
"No!" Dean yelled. He ran forward and slid in the mud by Sam's body. "No! Sammy!" He yelled out. Cas raised his hands over Sam's chest, but instead of the cermony that had happened at the warehouse when Sam died, Cas just looked up at Dean.
"Dean." Cas said. Dean, who now let the tears fall, looked up at him. "He's not dead." Cas said.
"What? He's not breathing! His hearts not beating!" Dean yelled. "He's cold." He whispered.
"His soul may be gone, but the body's not dead." Cas explained. "He's in a coma." Dean wiped at his eyes and looked down at Sam's face. How was it that he looked so young right now. Cas looked around at the forest. The grey skies that hung over it, the mist, the silence. That's when it hit him. "This is a protected forest." He said.
"What?" Dean asked.
"This place is protected by angels." Cas said. "You know how most forests are said to be protect by Pagan Gods?" Dean nodded his head. "Well, there are some that are safe havens for angels and forces of good. Sam must have been drawn here by that fact. So Gabe knew it was safe for him, so a demon couldn't possess him again and say yes to Lucifer in his place."
"So Gabe was watching out for him." Dean said. Cas nodded. "Hey Sammy, it's me." Dean whispered to Sam. "I'm here. I'm not leaving you. I want you to come back home baby. I miss you. I need you. I love you." He whispered. That's when he heard clapping behind him.
"Guess you aren't as dumb as you look." Gabe said. "But I'm afraid Sam doesn't want anything to do with you anymore."
"You asshole!" Dean yelled, letting go of Sam and charging at Gabe. Gabe disappeared and reappeared behind Cas.
"Watch your tounge." Gabe laughed. "We'll, I'll be seein' ya...not!" He laughed. He was about to vanish when Dean grabbed a hold of his arm. Cas grabbed Dean's arm. The three vanished at once.
