Chapter 100

Bryan didn't understand. "Why the hell would he do something like that?'

"To save Dean," Brad answered again.

"Well, how the hell is handing himself over to the Immortal going to save Dean? That just don't make any since." Tony was beside himself. How could Sam do that? How did he think Dean was going to feel when he did that? They didn't know a lot about the supernatural but they knew about kidnappers, which was what this was in the beginning. Kidnappers wouldn't let one hostage go to get another one to stay. "Damn it!"

"Tony, just calm down ok?" Bryan put a hand on his partner's shoulder and could feel him quivering.

"I don't know," Brad muttered. "Before all this happened, Sam said he knew how to kill the Immortal or else he thought he did. Maybe this was what Sam had in mind. Brad sneered. Sometimes that kid can be the most stubborn person in the world. Suddenly, urgently, Brad said, "Come on. We've got to go. We need to get there now. We only have two and half hours left before we're stuck here permanently."

"Shit," Bryan said. "Thanks for reminding us of that Brad. It's not like we don't have enough to worry about."

Brad grinned and they all took off running.

"I don't understand," John said. "Why would he do something like that?"

"To save his brother," Jack replied.

"That's not going to save his brother, Jack."

"I know John. I don't know. Sam said he knew how to kill the Immortal. Come on. Let's get there. We don't have much time left." John nodded and the two men took off running toward the enemy's lair.

"Sammy, come on," Dean said. "This wasn't a smart thing to do. You've got to snap out of this."

Sam continued to grin. Dean was standing between his brother and the Immortal and had no intentions of moving. He wasn't going to let this happen. Sam grabbed him and shoved him out of the way.

"Sammy, damn it!"

Nemesis grinned. "Very good Sam, now what you need to do is kill your brother and then you and me will live together happily. You'll be my son and I'll be your father. Sam nodded and turned to Dean.

"Sam, no." Dean shouted and then he just gave up. If that thing had his brother then there was no reason for him to live. He didn't want to, not without Sam. All he could think was that he had failed him. He'd promised him to always protect him and he failed, and so there was no reason to fight anymore. He didn't want to live. Not without his little brother.

Dean sighed. "Ok Sam, fine. If this is what you want then go ahead. Kill me. I'm sorry. I failed you." Sam just looked at him as John and Jack came bursting into the Immortal's chambers.

"Sam!" John stopped in his tracts. "What have you done?" Sam didn't reply. Bryan, Brad and Tony came running through the other hallway and Ethan came in the back. Nemesis grinned, sadistically.

"The gangs all here." He said, sarcastically. He looked at Ethan who shrank back. "I'll deal with you in a minute." He turned his attention to the others. They all charged at the same time and Nemesis raised both hands, throwing them all back.

They all crashed against the back wall. It seemed like Nemesis was stronger.

"Sam, looks like you get to kill them all." Nemesis glanced over his shoulder at the kid behind him. "Want that be fun?"

Sam didn't say anything. John jumped up. He would not let the bastard have his son, either of them. Jack and Brad faced the Immortal, and threw their minds at him but it didn't even phase the creature. He just laughed. Somehow, taking Sam had made him strong and the fact that Sam gave himself, made him virtually unstoppable. Jack and Brad were wearing down and Nemesis was standing tall. Tony and Bryan would have done something but they were using magic and that could be dangerous, so they just waited until they could help.

John grabbed the tranquilizer gun that Jack had dropped, and while the two doctors were busy keeping the Immortal busy, he pointed it at his son. "Don't worry Sammy. I'll get you back. I won't let him have you." He looked over at Dean, who wasn't even trying to fight. He just gave up and stood there passively. All Dean could think was that he didn't protect Sam and it weighed down on him. That was his only job in this miserably life and he had failed.

John shook his head. Dean would be ok, as soon as he got his brother back. Jack and Brad were falling and finally had to stop. This made the Immortal ecstatic.

"Sammy," Nemesis said, facing the young hunter. "This is it. Kill your brother and your friends and we'll live together forever." Sam just stood there. If Nemesis hadn't been so full of himself and so triumphant, he would have realized that Sam wasn't doing what he was being told to do, but he didn't. He thought he had won. He was wrong.

"We're going to get you back Sam." John pulled the trigger and Sam pivoted away, the dart missing him by mere inches. He snarled and raised his hand. The tranquilizer gun flew from John's hand and into Sam's.

"Sam!" John screamed, while the others just watched. Bryan picked up the other gun but Sam sensed it. He raised his other hand and Bryan's tranquilizer gun flew into Sam's other hand. This one was still loaded so he dropped the other one. He aimed it. Right at John's head. John froze. This was it. It was over and the Immortal had won.

"No," Nemesis said. Sam stopped and looked over his shoulder at the creature that stood behind him. "You have to kill Dean first. The tranquilizer is a good idea. We can knock him out and torture him before we kill him." Sam grinned. Dean looked but didn't even try to fight. He didn't want to, not anymore. If Sam wasn't in his future, then he didn't want to have a future.

Sam turned and faced Dean. He pointed the gun. Dean closed his eyes. This was it, and it was ok. He was tired but still he spoke. "I'm sorry I didn't save you Sammy," he said and waited for the final blow. Everyone else just stood there and all of them prayed.

If Dean had opened his eyes, he would have seen the tears in Sam's and so would the immortal, but he was still so full of himself, it made Sam sick. The bastard!

Suddenly Sam screamed and whirled around. He faced the Immortal and emptied the gun into him. Nemesis growled and lunged at Sam. He'd kill his ass himself, he thought. How could Sam betray him like that? Sam backed up and Dean's eyes shot opened. What the hell?

The others jumped up and watched. Ethan ran up behind the Immortal and took an ax, hitting him in the back. That, plus the tranquilizer darts, finally took it's toll on the Immortal and he fell. All he could think was that when he healed up, they would all pay and pay dearly. Didn't they know that couldn't kill him? He laughed and lost consciousness. Sam shook his head, breaking out of Nemesis control.

"SAM!" Dean was ecstatic. "Sammy!" Sam looked at Dean and grinned, still he hadn't said a word but that was ok. He had Sam back.

Sam walked over and concentrated on the cuffs which fell off his brother's hands, and finally he spoke. "Finish it." Dean nodded and walked over to the immortal's unconscious form.

"How," Dean asked.

"Jack and Brad looked at each other. Tony and Bryan and John did also. Ethan spoke.

"You have to behead him and then burn him at the stake."

"Hmm, well I can do that." He looked at his brother once again and the two smiled at each other. Dean raised the ax, chopping off his head. Sam took a torch and after pouring lamp oil on him, he sat him on fire.

Sam and Dean stood side by side and watched the Immortal burn. The others stood back. It was another brother moment and they didn't want to interfere. "You ok?" Dean asked him. Sam nodded. Without warning Dean whirled around and hit Sam square in the mouth. He looked on shocked and staggered backwards, as blood invaded his mouth.

"Damn it Dean!" He said.

"Damn it my ass, don't you ever do anything like that again. You hear me! I'll kill you myself!" All the others looked over at John who was grinning from ear to ear. Sam and Dean were back. They were ok.

The Winchesters smiled at each other then and Tony, Bryan and the others stepped up. "Come on. Let's get out of here before we're stuck here forever." They all nodded and headed back to the tear in reality that would take them home. Sam looked back at Ethan. "You can come to," Dean said but he just shook his head. This is my place. Somebody has to guard it."

Sam nodded.

"Thanks," said Dean. Ethan grinned. "Don't mention it." They all left and soon were right back in Jack and Brad's living room. The tear had repaired itself and they had made it home.

When Brad and Jack closed the circle, Sam went to sit down on the couch. Dean walked over. "You ok?"

Sam looked up into the eyes of his protector. The others just waited. "Yeah, I'm fine. For the first time in a long time, I fine." Dean nodded.

"How did you know to do that? Were you really going to give yourself to Nemesis?"

"Yeah I was. I did."

"Why?" Dean wanted to know.

"To save you." Sam replied.

"I don't understand." Dean questioned.

"Sam knew the only way he could fight the Immortal was on his own terms," Jack said.

"Yeah, he had to be on Nemesis level. He knew that we'd tried everything else so that was all that was left," came Brad's reply.

"Yeah, but how did you know it would work?" John said.

Sam just grinned. "I didn't. But Dean's my brother. He's saved my ass plenty of times. It was my turn to save his." He shrugged and looked at Dean who had narrowed his eyes at him, a sure sign that he was pissed. Sam took a deep breath. "If it hadn't of worked Dean, I wouldn't have wanted to go on anymore anyway." He looked at John. "I love you dad, but Dean's my brother."

John nodded, understanding completely. "I know. He's the one that has taken care of you." Sam nodded and looked back at Dean. "You're my brother." And that said it all.

The end.

Well that's it ya'll. Hope you enjoyed it. Sam would have done anything to save Dean, including sacrificing himself for him. There should be more of that kind of thing in the world, don't you think?

Thanks for reading.
