Enjoy!

"Where's Sam' Dean asked through gritted teeth as Lilith paced around him in what Dean thought was a creepy way seeing as he couldn't see her properly. Lilith grinned down at him with a pleased look on her face. Dean was still in pain, he could still hear and smell hell; she was sure of that. And that made her happy…and soon Sam would be hers. She opened her mouth to answer but suddenly she froze and her flashed white and it looked as though she was listening to something. Dean struggled to sit up but he couldn't. He had to get to Sam and make sure that he was okay. Just at that moment Lilith's voice broke into his thoughts,

"Damn amateurs…" she said, "They can't even do the simplest of tasks…come on Dean, let's go and get your brother"

Sam didn't know what they were doing to him; all he knew was that it hurt like hell. He struggled to open his eyes but when he did he noticed that the demons had a strange look on their face…they looked worried. He knew then that something was wrong. He tried to say something but the pain was too much, he fell down to the ground with his hands on his head. The demons watched in delight as he writhed about on the ground. They knew that they were in trouble with Lilith…it had taken far too long for them to break him down. But maybe they'd be spared. The boy was vulnerable now that he was in pain. Suddenly Sam stopped moving and the demons froze, was he dead? He couldn't be dead…Lilith needed him for something. They didn't know what and it wasn;t their place to ask, they just had to deliever. They were just about to decide what to do when Sam stood up slowly. The demons stepped back with fear in their eyes. Sam glared at them angrily as he slowly put two and two together, he couldn't believe how stupid he'd been. Why would demons want to help him? It's not like they were with Ruby or anything. Just as he thought that Ruby stormed in,

"What the hell is happening here" she exclaimed when she spotted the demons. Sam ignored her as he continued to glare at the demons,

"You're working for Lilith aren't you?" he asked in a dark voice, his eyes were full of rage and hate and the demons inched backwards slightly. One of the demons shrugged and then chuckled,

"It's not our fault that you're so gullible, Sam…tell me, why would we want to help you? We didn't think that you'd even believe us….you hunters call yourself humans…you all think that you're heroes. But you're no better than the rest of us, we all have the same weaknesses and you…well you weren't that easy to break kiddo, not when we know the right buttons to push…you just want to save everybody, save your brother…but where does that lead you? You're just a selfish bastard Sam, just like the rest of us" Sam stood there for a moment after the demon finished talking then he stepped forward with a menacing look on his face,

"Sam…" Ruby called in a worried tone but Sam held up a hand to silence her. Sam kept on walking until he was a few inches away from the demon that had spoken,

"I am nothing like you but you can say all of your speeches or whatever…lets see what you say when Lilith gets here" he said with a smug look on his face. The demons laughed suddenly and Sam frowned, a confused look on his face. Why weren't they afraid of Lilith? Did they know something that he didn't? Ruby walked over towards him and she said,

"She's got Dean, Sam….and she's bringing him here"

"What? But…but how?" he looked at the demons once more, "Is this true"

"Yep, and we'll be here when she cuts you up into tiny little pieces" the demon said.

Sam's breathing got heavier and he could feel his heart beating faster. He had to get out of here now. He ran out of the room and he kept on running until he found an empty room in Bobby's house. He walked in and closed the door and he sank down to the ground slowly. He wasn't ready for this. He couldn't face Lilith….or Dean. How was he supposed to explain the fact that he'd used the powers even though Dean had begged him not to? How was he supposed to look Dean in the eye when he'd failed to save him. Dean had saved him and Sam hadn't even been able to return the favour. That demon has been right, he was weak….he was selfish. He wasn't a hero, not even close. He was just Sam Winchester, the boy with evil inside him, the guys who's entire family had died because of him. He didn't even deserve to be here. Dean had always said that Sam was the stronger one but he was wrong. Sam was weak…he'd been protected for so long that he couldn't cope on his own. He couldn't make any decisions without guidance. But now was his chance to put that right; he had to decide. Was he going to fight or was he going to give up.

Dean scowled as Lilith glared at him from the passengers seat and said, "Can't you drive any faster" she asked through gritted teeth. She would have driven herself but somehow a 12-year old driving a flashy sports car would attract people's attention. Normally she wouldn't have minded but she needed to get to the Winchester Boy with no hassle, no distractions. Dean, meanwhile was having issues of his own. He hated the car and he hated the fact that he was the one who was taking Lilith to get Sam. But at least he was here, Lilith needed him for something he was sure of that. Why else would she insist on him coming along?

"What do you want you want from Sam anyway?" He asked curiously.

"It's none of your business" Lilith said in her child like voice, Dean turned to look at her, a dark look on his face,

"Anything to do with Sam is my business" he replied in a cold voice. Lilith laughed quietly,

"And that just makes my work easier…you and Sam….it would be cute if I didn't despise you so much" she said. Dean just shook his head and averted his eyes back to the stretch of road in front of him. A while ago he'd still been in hell and now he was with the demon who'd sent him there and he was taking her to see Sam. The whole thing just seemed unreal to Dean but the only thing that he could think of was Sam and whether or not he was okay.

****

There was a knock at the door and it was followed by someone calling his name; it was Bobby…Sam hadn't seen him since the demons had arrived. He stood up quickly and he threw open the door.

"Bobby, hey are you okay?" He asked as soon as he caught a glimpse of Bobby. Bobby nodded quickly,

"I take it that you've heard about Dean?" Bobby asked.

"Yeah…" Sam answered his eyes unable to meet Bobby's.

"And?"

"And what Bobby? What am I supposed to do?" Ruby appeared alongside Bobby with an angry look on her face. Sam knew that she probably thought that he was being weak again but what he could he do? She was supposed to have helped get him ready instead she'd run off after the first sign of trouble.

"How could you be so stupid?" she yelled, "I don't care if you're ready or not, either you fight or you die and lose Dean all over again" and she walked off. Bobby gave Sam a sympathetic look,

"She's right kid, you gotta get out there and fight Lilith" he said.

"Is it…is it really Dean this time…cause…"

"I don't know Sam, let's hope so…" Bobby replied. Sam sighed and his muscles tensed as he felt some sort of presence nearby. It was her; Lilith was nearby. He took a deep breath and told himself that he was ready for this. He was going to stop Lilith once and for all and get brother back where he belonged. Tonight he was going to be a hero; or so he thought…

****

"So what happened that night, I thought that you were going to kill Sam? Your demon gun ray run out of batteries of something?" Dean said with a smirk. But beneath that smirk lay fear. Fear that Sam had used something else to stop her. He knew that he'd begged Sam not to but he also knew that Sam would have tried everything and anything to get Dean back and in order to do that it'd mean that Sam had to stay alive. Dean just hoped that Sam hadn't used his psychic whatever.

"It seems as though your brother is immune to my 'demon gun ray' as you put it….probably why Azazel picked him, but that doesn't mean that he is strong. All of you humans are weak….then again…is Sam even human?" Lilith replied with a teasing look in her eyes. Dean's muscles tensed as he gripped the steering wheel tighter. What the hell was she saying here??

"What do you mean is Sam even human?" he queried but all Lilith said was,

"Ask your brother" Dean frowned as he wondered what it was that Sam hadn't told him. They'd been so preoccupied with Dean's deal that they hadn't even stopped to talk about Sam and whether or not he was still going 'dark side'. And then there was what John had said to him…'If you can't save him then you have to kill him' He'd saved Sam from death but somehow Dean knew that his Dad hadn't been talking about that. Even Gordon Walker had wanted Sam dead and there had to be some sort of reason. Perhaps there was something inside Sam, something evil. But surely if Sam knew about something like that he wouldn't keep it from him would he? Dean just didn't know anymore. Sam had changed a lot over the last year and sure it was down to him mostly but Dean couldn't help feeling as though they were on some sort of rollercoaster; there was only one direction they could go in and it led to one pathway and one destination. Dean didn't think it was a good one.
