How glad he would have been, just to be able picking up the phone and ask Bobby for advice.
Dean was almost certain that even he would've found no significant case of this kind.
It was hopeless, even Cas had no idea what was going on here, and so Dean sat down next to his sleeping brother and began to pray ... he prayed to none other than God himself.

Sam and Gabe sat together at the small dining table in the kitchen, entwined in a heated debate.
"... and again, I wish this ominous "enemy" would finally show up.
I'm tired of this uncertainty! ", Sam declared defiantly.
"I know, Kiddo! "Gabriel replied grimly.
"I feel the same way about this.
And the current circumstances didn't make the whole situation any better. "
He took Sam's hand and crossed their fingers together.
"I'm so terribly sorry, Sam ...", his counterpart looked at him puzzled, "that you are in trouble because of me."
Gabriel's features got a sad expression as he continued to speak.
"I wish I had the strength to get you out of here .I don't want to be responsible if something happens to you.
Sam, as I said earlier, I would rather sacrifice myself than being the witness of how you put yourself in mortal danger."
Gabriel then fell silent for a while, his eyes fixed on his fingers, which brushed over Sam's back of his hand , lost in thought.
The hunter knew that there was no appropriate response to this statement without ending once more in discussion.
And so he was silent too.
He wanted to cry out, cursing God and the world, and challenge Fenrir (if they were actually dealing with the Nordic Wolf) to finally attack them.
But at the same time, he also wanted to make it clear to Gabe, that he had volunteered (more or less) for all of this.
Damn it, he was a grown man, a hunter not to mention. He and his brother had already gone through so much that he would hardly throw in the towel.
Sam got up, gave Gabriel a long, passionate kiss, and without another word stepped out onto the porch.
Gabriel didn't follow him, his body just wouldn't move.
He tried to get up, but his legs didn't obey him.
The archangel panicked.
The more he fought against his paralyzed condition, the worse it got.
He was caught! He could not even turn his head to see if he was in any sort of trap.
But why should there be a trap in his own universe ?!
That wouldn't make any sense!
While he was thinking about it, he heard the front door slam shut with a loud crash.
Sam had disappeared, and Gabriel had the uneasy feeling that he wouldn't see him again so soon.

Sam stood outside in the rain.
The salvage yard in front of him looked somber, cold and alien.
He made a decision.
He wouldn't sit around idly and wait for something to happen.
No! he would search until he found something, whether good or bad no longer mattered to him.
And so the younger Winchester set out to explore this darned universe.
Unaware how close he was to his adversary, unsuspecting what he would trigger with it, and in what great danger he brought them all.
Love turns you blind!
People have done the stupidest things in the rush of emotions, but for a hunter, these stupid things could end up deadly.
He was already wandering for 3 Days through nowhere, always chasing the sound of thunder.
Something had to be there!
Sam was glad that he wasn't hungry or thirsty in the dream world. He could continue on his way without any inconvenient interruptions.
The rain didn't bother him anymore.
He had already lost his shoe and left the other one several miles behind him.
And so he waded barefoot through the small torrents that had formed on the paved road.
The whole thing was quite a bit strange to be honest. He hadn't seen a single car yet, let alone another person. Why would Gabe want to maintain the illusion of meeting someone on the highway?
Or did this part of the universe still belong to Sam's comfort area?
At this thought he had to smile, it would be quite typical for the archangel.
After all, he had once hounded Sam and Dean across TV- Land , proving that Gabe had a great amount of imagination.
What Sam was supposed to find, would even leave Gabes ingenuity in the shade...
