Continued from last chapter. Thanks for reading.
Bobby's House.
Dean walked in 15 minutes later after talking to Castiel outside. Bela noticed something was different.
"Dean...what happened out there?"
He sighed, walking past her and into the living room to where Bobby was.
"Dean." Bela called out. She followed him.
He finally spoke up when all three of them stood in the room.
"I called Cas down here, talked to him."
"What? Can he do anything about Sam?" Bela asked.
"No...he's still rigid. Look...I asked him if Sam could really stop Lilith. He said Sam wouldn't be Sam if he did. But it's supposed to be me, and that if I do what they ask Sam won't have to. So I said okay."
"I'm sorry?" Bela asked. Bobby just stared at Dean.
"I told Cas I'd do what needed to be done if it meant saving Sam from this. So we can get him fixed up now. They're supposed to find me when it's time for whatever it is they need me to do."
Bela shook her head, she had a hard time believing what Dean was saying. Bobby however was the one to speak up about it.
"So, you just what, signed up to be the angels' bitch?"
Dean glared at him.
"Sorry. But after what you said about them, you just start trusting them?"
Bela looked to Dean as well.
"Come on guys, give me some credit. I don't trust them, in fact I probably trust them less."
"Than why?" Bela asked him. "I mean, they say I was brought back to be a big part of this and that's not really true, I'm just here to help. I know coming from me this doesn't mean much, but I think this is a bad idea."
"Look it's either I help them, trust them, or I let Sam trust a demon. Not an option. I don't care what he thinks about her, if she wants him drinking demon blood then her goal is for him to turn into a monster. I'm not letting that happen."
Bela sighed. She turned around and walked over to the sofa and sat down. Dean watched her...he could tell she wasn't happy with his decision.
"I see your point Dean." Bobby said. He walked into the kitchen to get more beer.
"You're mad." Dean said to Bela.
"No, I'm not. I just don't agree that you should be making some committment to angels. If Castiel was himself I think he'd agree, something isn't right."
"I know that, I just don't see another way."
She shrugged. Bela didn't have any other big plan either.
"You're right...I just, I don't know anything about this family thing you all have going on. The bond you have with Sam, I have no idea what that's like. Maybe I've been selfiish my whole life though."
He sat down next to her. "Bela..."he started.
"No, it's fine. You're doing this for Sam, it's something I've come to know about you very well. You went to hell for him, and you're willing to give up yourself for him again. I get it."
"Bela..." he tried again.
"I don't disagree because I think it's wrong what you're doing for your brother, it's that I think the angels are going to use you. I know not a lot about emotions, I've hid from mine for a long time, but what I do know is that I'd rather not see anything happen to you. I guess you could say I'm worried you won't come back after they finish with you."
"Huh...thought you weren't going to get attached to me? Strictly phsyical right?" Dean said, goading her.
"Dean." She warned.
"What? You just admitted that you care about me." he teased.
"I did not say that."
"Yeah, you kinda did." he said again, playing bumping his shoulder into her. She glared at him. He continued. "Oh don't worry, I won't tell anyone else that the big bad Bela has feelings."
She shook her head. "You're impossible."
He only nodded. Dean then placed his hand on hers. "Look, we don't know what they want with me. Thing is if Lilith does break that seal, maybe none of us will survive. Either way something's going to happen, and if there's an option where only one of us has to die, I think I'd rather go with that option."
"Self sacrifice for you...again?"
"We don't know that. Maybe I'll be fine and we all survive this. Then we can go back to being each other's pain in the ass."
She smiled. "If that isn't the way this goes down, then I will contact the spirits and bring you back somehow only to kill you myself."
"Sure you will." he said. He then reached over and kissed her forehead, staying in that position for what seemed like forever. They finally heard Bobby clearing his throat.
"Well, that's new." Bobby commented. "And wierd."
Dean pulled back from her quickly.
"Just outta curiousity...do you guys hear anything?" Bobby said.
"Um not, it's quiet." Dean said.
"Yeah, I think that is his point Dean." Bela said, motioning downwards towards the basement. It clicked.
"Too quiet?" Dean asked.
Bobby headed towards the staircase, Dean and Bela followed.
They went downstairs to find Sam going crazy again, and being flung around the room. Bela looked on in horror as Bobby and Dean tried to get ahold of Sam. They managed to get him on the cot, and tied him down to it. That there was enough to send Dean over the edge.
The three of them were now back upstairs.
"Alright, while we wait this out I am going to go get some food and coffee. I'll be back in a bit." Bela told them. She brushed her hand down Dean's arm and headed for the door.
Bobby tried to talk to Dean about what they were doing to Sam, but Dean wouldn't listen. Bobby had doubts locking Sam up was the right idea. Dean wouldn't change his mind, he couldn't. He was too worried about what Castiel had told him, about Sam becoming the next thing they'd have to hunt when all this was over.
lllllllllllllllllllllllll
Gas station. Bela's car.
Bela heard her cell phone go off as soon as she opened the car door. She reached in quickly and answered it.
"Dean, hey. I'm heading back now, it'll probaby be about 15..." she started.
"Bela, Sam is gone."
"What?"
"He got out, somehow. The door to the panic room was open. We don't know if Ruby came and did it somehow...or if Sam did himself. All I know is he's gone."
"Okay, I'm leaving right now. I'll be there soon okay?"
"I'm going to need you help find him. Do your thing or whatever it is you do to find locations, I don't care."
Dean was panicked, and pissed.
"Okay, my stuff is at Bobby's alright...I'm on my way."
Dean hung up.
lllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
Bobby's
Bela arrived shortly, Bobby was on the phone and Dean was pacing. She quickly made her way to her stuff to try to locate Sam.
Bobby hung up the phone and walked over.
"Okay police found the car Sam drove outta here."
"So he switched cars. Any stolen in the same place?" Dean asked.
"Yeah." Bobby showed him what was written down.
"That one." Dean finally said.
"You sure?" Bobby asked. "That don't look like Sam's style."
"He's trying to lose me, so that's exactly the one he would take. Alright, I'm headed that way, you guys stay here and work on an exact location."
Dean picked up his keys and headed for the door. Bela continued searching.
llllllllllllllllllllllllll
Jamestown. ND
Dean sat in his car, having no continued leads on Sam's location. He felt his phone vibratee a few moments later, and flipped it open.
"Yeah."
"I have something." Bela said.
"Okay hit me with it."
"Well Bobby said police found the car Sam stole about an hour from your location, I'm sending you the the name and coordinates now. However, from my intel there's a town near there that seems to be a hot spot for demon activity."
"Sounds about right. Can you just send me to the town instead? Seems to be most likely where Sam would be."
"Sure. Check your phone in a few seconds. Be careful."
"Yeah, thanks."
He was about to hang up when she stopped him.
"Dean, Bobby wanted me to tell you...so do not take this wrong okay? He just said to be careful, that you needed to get Sam back not push him away, even if you are angry. He says you need to get through to him."
"Fine." Dean said. "Got the message."
"Yeah well, I'm not so sentimental, so I say if you need to knock your moron of a brother out to get him back that may be a good second option."
"Right. Thanks for the location, I'll call you guys when we're headed back."
He then hung up the phone.
