Final chapter


Minty heard Sjin scream and she ran to their bedroom. When she reached the doorway, she saw her lover's body on the floor, his throat slit. She gasped, dropping on the floor next to him. "S-Sjin?" She said, putting a hand on his face. His blue eyes stared at nothing.

Tears filled her eyes and they fell on the dead mans body. "No… please, Notch, no!" She yelled, the tears now coming off her face in streams.

"Minty, you okay?" She heard Sips's voice down the hall. She didn't say anything. When the gray man entered the room to see his friends dead body on the floor, he gasped. "What happened here?!" He asked, looking at the blonde woman, also crouching down next to her. She wrapped her arms around his neck.

"He's… he's dead Sips." Minty cried. Sips blushed slightly as he put his arms around her.

"I know… it's okay…" he tried to comfort her. She looked up at him with sad blue eyes. He gave her a comforting smile, reaching down and pecking her cheek slightly. Minty put her head on his shoulder again.

"I wish he wasn't dead…" she said, her voice getting shaky again.

Dean loaded a pistol as Sam talked with Xephos. "Iron bullets? The closest thing we have to a gun is a mining laser" the spaceman said.

"Really? Wow. But yeah, we use iron bullets to destroy evil spirits" Sam replied.

"And how might that work? Pure iron destroys them?"

"E-yup. And rock salt wards them off"

"Interesting"

"Hey, you guys gunna chitchat all day, or are we going to try to figure out what's killing people?" Dean asked, putting the last bullet in the gun.

"Yeah, we should get to work on this case." Sam said, dismissing the conversation between the two.

"Okay. Hope you find out who did it" Xephos said, smiling. Sam smiled back as he followed Dean out of the shed. When the brothers passed SipsCo, they saw a blonde woman, crying. Dean nodded to Sam as he walked up to her.

"You okay, miss?" He asked, putting a hand on her shoulder.

"I-I don't know… my- my boyfriend just died last night" she managed between sobs. Dean's expression softened.

"What happened?" He asked, motioning Sam over.

"I-I heard him scream… I ran to our room and found him dead with his throat slit…" she said. Sam's eyes widened, as did Dean's.

"Really now? That's a shame" said Dean, getting up. "I hope you feel better" he said, turning and walking away from SipsCo.

"Bye" said Sam, following his brother. The woman waved after them.

"Damn it! Another guy, dead!" Dean cursed, kicking the dirt.

"Dean, it's okay. I guarantee this will be the last person this thing kills" his brother reassured him.

"Yeah? And what if it isn't, Sam?! What if we don't find this thing?! What then?! Go home and forget about all this?! That's sure as hell what I'm gunna do!" Dean snapped, clearly annoyed.

"We'e gunna find it, Dean! Don't talk like that! We have to find it for these people's sake! Do you expect me to just leave these people to die?!" Sam snapped back. They fought like that for a while before Xephos spotted them and broke them apart.

"Hey! Hey!" He said, getting between them. "You guys are fighting like kids!" He finished. That's when the Winchester brothers realized they were fighting like Sam and their father. Sam took a deep breath.

"Yeah. Your right. Sorry" he said.

"I'm sorry too" said Dean. Xephos nodded and walked back to the Jaffa Factory. "You're right Sam. We have to find this thing before it kills anyone else" Dean said.

"God, my head hurts" Sam said, rubbing his temples. Dean put his hand on his brothers shoulder.

"Migraine?" He asked.

"Gah, no… like I'm gunna…" the younger brother gasped as he got a vision.

"I'll be there in a minute. Night, Lomadia" Xephos said, kissing his girlfriend on the forehead.

"Night" she said, walking to their room. He turned to finish crafting a diamond sword when he felt and arm around his neck. The arm covered his mouth so he couldn't say anything.

"Hey Xeph. Long time no see" said a familiar voice in his ear. Xephos growled into the sleeve of the mans waistcoat. It chuckled slightly. "I like you, Xephos. Too bad I have to kill you" he said before slitting his throat.

Sam let out a breath he didn't even know he was holding out. "Sam! What happened?" Dean asked, patting his shoulder.

"Vision. I know who's dying next" he said, blinking. He saw Xephos walk into his house where Lomadia awaited.

"That's great! Who?" Dean asked.

"The man that just went into that house" Sam said, pointing to where Xephos just went in.

"Okay. What do we do, tell him he's gunna die tonight unless we help him?" Dean asked.

"Exactly" Sam said, trying to think out what he was going to say to the spaceman.

Sam knocked on Xephos's door, knowing what he was going to say about his vision. When the spaceman opened the door, Sam silently took a deep breath. "Hi… this is hard to say… I had a vision, and your the next to die" he said. Xephos cocked his head.

"What..?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.

"What my brothers trying to say is, that the killer? He's after you next." Dean said.

"How would you know?" The spaceman asked, crossing his arms.

"I had a vision where-" Sam was cut off by Xephos.

"Vision? How in the name of Herobrine do you get visions?" Xephos asked, rolling his eyes.

"I just do, okay? This happened months ago. And unless you let us, you're going to die" Sam said.

"That sounds like a threat" Xephos said, pulling out a sword. Sam put his hands up in defense as Dean got in front of him.

"Hey, hey! My brothers not threatening you, he's serious! If you don't let us, your going to die, tonight! I'm sorry, but that's the truth!" Dean said, glaring at the spaceman. Xephos rolled his eyes.

"Like I'm gunna believe the two of you! You haven't been here a day in your life, and you wanna protect me?!" He said, glaring at the brothers.

"Hey! We've dealt with stuff you can't imagine!" Sam snapped, almost growling out the words.

"Shut up!" Dean yelled. The two men looked at him in surprise. "Look, If you let us help, this'll be over. No more mysterious murders." He finished. Xephos let out a sigh through his teeth.

"No! Get out of here!" He said, taking a swing at them with the sword. Dean grabbed Sam's wrist and ran.

"Damn it! And to top it all off, the suns going down!" Sam cursed, kicking a rock, making it fly across the field. Dean put a hand on his brothers shoulder.

"Hey, we'll just go there and kill the damn thing that's killing people before it kills him" the older brother said. Sam sighed.

"Well, too little, too late! How're we gunna get in?! He has a iron door, Dean" Sam said.

"We break in. He said there are axes for breaking wood easier. We get one of those and break in" Dean said, pointing to a tree. It didn't look at all like a tree. It just looked like… blocks.

"You want me to punch that down?" Sam looked at his brother with a look that wasn't impressed.

"If you're too scared to, I'll do it" Dean said, smirking slightly. Sam pushed his shoulder as Dean let out a small laugh. "Fine, fine, I'll do it. Wuss" Dean finished, walking to the tree. He curled his hand into a fist and punched the tree down.

Once they had an axe, they went to Xephos's house. When the were certain he wasn't in the room they were planning to break into, Sam broke some of the wooden planks. Sam picked them up and put them back into place once they were in. "This world is so weird…" he thought out loud as Dean handed him a gun filled with iron bullets.

"Well, we may get out of this joint tonight" Dean said, readying the gun. Sam did the same, loading it and pointing it at the ground. Dean saw a shadow pass in his vision and he whipped his head to it. The same events from Sam's vision happened just then.

"I'll be there in a minute. Night, Lomadia"

"Night"

When everything was quiet, they heard grunting noises. The Winchester brothers jumped out from their hiding spot and pointed their guns at the person. The guy- as they found out- turned to them. Xephos's eyes widened as he realized who it was.

"Ridgedog?!" He asked in surprise, staring at the red-brown haired man. He just chuckled.

"Who else? And you got these two goons to take care of me? How stupid" Ridge mocked, looking at Sam and Dean. He dropped Xephos, making the man gasp for breath in a crumpled heap on the ground. "So, Sam and Dean, was it?" He asked, inspecting the men closer. Dean took a shot at him, witch hit him in the shoulder. He made a painful somewhat of a grunting noise as the pure iron bullet hit him.

"Shut up. So, you've been killing people?" Dean asked. Ridge rolled his eyes.

"Keep up, pretty boy! Yes, it was me who killed Rythian, Lalna, and Sjin" he said. His diamond sword still had dried blood on it.

"You don't even care about wiping off the blood of your victims, eh Ridgedog?" Sam asked, suddenly feeling cold. Dean heard a whisper in his ear.

"Kill him… avenge me and the other two…" it said. Sam pulled the trigger, this time hitting him in the leg. He growled at the pain.

"You idiot! You can't kill me! I'm immortal!" Ridge yelled, taking a swing at Sam with a sword. Sam dodged just in time.

"I know immortals have the ability to turn mortal! Fight us like men!" Dean yelled, moving to his brothers side. Ridge rolled his eyes once again. The brown eyed man slowly turned mortal as Sam and Dean waited as patiently as they could. Poor old Xephos was slowly making his way to the room Lomadia was in.

"Done. I'm mortal now. Lets fight" Ridge said, cracking his neck. Sam pulled the trigger once more as the now mortal man dodged quickly. The bullet hit a window, shattering it to pieces. Dean ran to him and tried to grab his head, but Ridge was too fast. He managed a stab on Dean's side. The older brother growled in pain, grinding his teeth as blood seeped out of the wound.

"Hope that hurt!" Ridge said coldly as Sam tackled him. The two men wrestled on the ground, but Sam ended up on the bottom, pinned down by Ridge's legs on his shoulders.

"S-stop it. Why are you killing all these people?" Sam asked as a sword was put to his neck.

"Oh, contrary, dear Sammy! I do it cause these people pose a threat to me! If they all rise up against me, they'll kill me if I'm not too careful!" Ridge said, pushing the blade down. Sam tried reaching for the gun, but it was just out of his reach. Dean tackled the man off his younger brother, making the sword slide out of his neck. Sam yelled in pain, blood coming in drops off his neck.

"Fuck you! Don't you ever try to kill my brother again!" Dean yelled, putting the gun to his head. Ridge sighed in slight defeat. He chuckled, witch soon turned into a full-blown cackle.

"Do you really think you can kill me?!" He asked, looking at Dean with insane brown eyes.

"Actually, yes, I do" said Dean as he pulled the trigger. Ridge let out one last dying moan as his lifeless body fell to the side, blood leaking or of his head. "Sam!" Dean called as he hurried over to his brothers body.

"Oh god… my throat hurts like hell, man" he said, sitting up slightly.

"Thank god, you're okay!" Dean said, hugging his little brother. Sam took the hug, breathing in and out slowly. Xephos ran out of the room to see Ridge's body dead on the floor and two brothers hugging.

"What in the name of Herobrine happened here?!" He asked, looking at an overturned table and a broken window.

"Sorry for any damage we did" said Dean, getting up. He was soon followed by Sam, who was a bit slower.

"It's okay, I can fix it later" said Xephos, who was slightly shaken up. Lomadia came running in.

"Xephos, what- oh great Notch, shit went down in here!" She said, looking around. When she saw Ridge's body, she gasped. "R-Ridge…" she said, putting her hands to her open mouth. Xephos put an arm around her.

"It's okay… he's the one who killed Rythian, Sjin, and your brother" he said, looking at her. She looked back with alarm and anger in her face.

"What?! Who killed him?" She asked, looking at Sam and Dean.

"That would be Dean" said Sam, pointing to his brother. He smiled. Lomadia ran up to him and hugged him.

"You, sir, deserve a hug. For avenging my brother, Rythian, and Sjin." She said, smiling. Xephos smiled, as well as Sam.

"It's no problem, really" he said, breaking the embrace. Lomadia let go and walked back to her boyfriend.

"I'm sorry for doubting you. I didn't think you would catch it. But, I know now not to underestimate you two. If you wanna go home, Lalna fixed the machine, I know cause I went to his lab the morning after his death." Xephos said.

"It's okay. And we'll happily go home" said Sam. Dean nodded, agreeing with his brother.

That morning, they buried Ridgedog's body and almost everyone who knew the people who died went and bid Sam and Dean Winchester goodbye from their world.

"Bye!" Minty called, as did Zoey. Sips waved as Honeydew jumped up and down, waving both his hands. Xephos and Lomadia both waved as the brothers said their last words in their world:

"You all are nice people, and me and my brother will remember you guys always. Goodbye" said Sam.

"Bye, everyone!" Said Dean, stepping into the portal first. When Dean had landed in their world, Sam took one last look at all the people around him. He smiled as he stepped into the portal back to his own home.
