May 2009
Car. Night.

Dean was driving fast after they mysteriously were transported from their spot in the church to an airplane. There had been a huge aftermath of the final seal breaking, and of Lucifer's cage opening, including a tidal wave and hurricane. They'd gotten off the plane after it made an emergency landing at the closest airport, got a rental car, and started driving. They were hoping to find Cas. There cell phones weren't on either, making it difficult to call Bobby or Bela.

lllllllllllll

Highway. Bobby's Car.

Bela sat in the passenger seat of Bobby's car. She didn't really know where he was planning on going at the moment. They had headed to the location of the church, but all the radio stations pointed to it being the sight of a 'nuclear' type explosion. Bela had this horrible feeling about Dean, and Sam. She had tried calling a hundred times, tried spells. She couldn't even figure out if they were alive. Her and Bobby had gone quiet a few minutes before.

Bela broke the silence finally. "Where are we going."

Bobby shrugged. "Keep trying to find them. Chuck called you right, well we head there."

"Castiel is dead." she said. "If he broke the rules to help Dean...we really have no idea what the angels are up to now."

Bobby stayed silent, driving fast.

lllllllllllllll

Chuck's House.

Dean and Sam enter Chuck's home, and see the messy state the house is in. The boys pulled out guns and quietly walked around. As they walked into one of the rooms, the heard a noise at the same time Chuck jumps out of a corner. He hits Sam over the head with something, but it didn't hurt Sam much.

"Ouch what the hell, Chuck?" Sam asked.

"Chuck dropped the object he was holding.

"Sam!"

"Yeah, what's going on?" Sam asked him.

"You guys are okay?"

Dean gave Chuck a weird look. The boys nodded though.

"Well yeah, minus the headache." Sam said.

"You're sure, because I saw everything...in my vision. You went full on Vader or something, I could feel your pulse quicken, and your eyes were black."

Dean's face fell. "Your eyes went black?" Dean asked him.

Sam looked down. He didn't want to talk about it now. He couldn't look Dean in the eye. "I don't know."

"Where is Cas?" Dean asked Chuck.

"Well as I explained to your girlfriend..." Chuck started. "the Archangel came, blew Castiel to pieces. As you can see made quite the mess around here, like a bomb went off."

Dean gave him a questionable look at the word 'girlfriend' but didn't say anything. "You're sure, he didn't just vanish?"

"No, like I said, blew up. It was gross."

"Damn it. Cas you stupid son of a bitch."

"Stupid, he helped us." Sam tried.

"Yeah...I know, exactly." Dean replied. He turned to Chuck. "You talked to Bela? What about Bobby?"

"Yeah, a while back ago. They were trying to reach you, pretty freaked out actually."

Dean checked his phone. It was dead...seemed to have been that way for a while. "Crap. It's dead." He looked to Sam.

"Mine's gone." Sam shrugged.

Dean was about to say something else when they heard someone call out Dean's name. They all looked over to see Zachariah.

"Well thought we'd find you here." the angel said. Dean glared at him

lllllllllllllllll

Motel.

After using the symbol Dean learned to send Zachariah away they boys had gotten out quickly and went to the motel, after stopping to grab a charger for Dean's phone.

They heard a knock on the door a few minutes after they'd settled in. The held their guns, and Sam raised his as he opened the door to find some overly happy girl at the door. She hugged him. What the hell?

"Uh, who are you, and are you okay?" Sam asked.

"Sam, it's really you." She touched his chest with her hand. "Wow.." she trailed off. She couldn't stop grinning.

He looked at her strangely.

"Hi, I'm Becky. I've read all about you." She said, smiling."Mr. Edlund...I mean Chuck...he said I'd find you here."

"What does he know?" Dean asked.

"Well he has a message for you, but he couldn't come because he's being watched."

"What is it?" Sam asked. Becky smiled.

"Oh, right. He said the Michael sword is on Earth. It's in a Castle on a hill of 42 dogs."

The boys looked at her like she was crazy.

"Huh?"

"You sure you got that right?" Sam asked her.

"Yes, I memorized everything he said. It's crazy I know, but that's what Chuck said."

"Right. Okay tell Chuck thanks I guess." Sam said. Trying to push her towards the door.

llllllllllllllllll

Gas Station.

Bela waited for Bobby to come back out of the gas station. She stared at her phone, for some reason still thinking it would ring. She was surprised however when Bobby's rang. She picked it up, checking the ID. She let out a breath of relief.

"Hello."

"Uh..Bela hey."

It was Sam. Bela hadn't expected that.

"Sam. Dean...is he...?" She said, trailing off.

"He's fine, washing up right now. We can explain everything when you guys get here. Where's Bobby?"

"Inside the station paying for gas and food of some kind I believe."

She wasn't sure how to sound when talking to Sam. Was he normal?

"Okay, well we got a message from Chuck about a weapon, the Michael sword? Not sure."

"I'll tell Bobby on the way. Where are you boys?"

Sam told her their location and then hung up.

lllllllllllllllll

Motel. 2 hours later.

Dean got up at the sound of knocking on the door. He walked over and opening it to find Bobby, and Bela right behind him.

"Hey." Dean said.

"Good to see you in one piece still." Bobby said. Dean nodded. Bobby walked into the room. Bela came in after. Dean smiled at her. She didn't return it though.

"Glad to see your alive...might have been nice to be made aware of that hours ago. Could have saved us the migraine." She said, glaring at him.

"Yeah...sorry. Phone was dead, and you know there was the whole near death thing. Good to see you too Bela."

"Whatever. You should be thanking us that we picked up your precious car on the way. We'll talk later." she said, walking past him. Dean shut the door. Okay, she was mad. Oops.

"Hey..." he said, grabbing her arm. "I am sorry."

She nodded. "What about him?" She whispered.

Dean shook his head. "Not sure what to say at the moment. I'm sure you can tell, he did it. Lilith's gone, Lucifer's been let outta hell, and the world's ending." He rubbed his hand through his short hair and sighed. The two of them then walked over to the other side of the larger motel room to where Bobby and Sam were.

"So, you weren't followed were you?" Dean asked Bobby.

"Nah." Bobby said. "So, she said somethin' about the sword of Michael?" Bobby said, referring to Bela.

Dean and Sam nodded. "You think it's really the archangel Michael's sword?"

"Hope so." Bobby replied. "Here." Bobby threw a book down on the table. "Had her do some research on the way, we picked this up at a local library that had a collection of old stuff."

"Okay." Sam said.

Bela turned the page to one of a photo.

"That's Michael, supposedly." She said.

Bobby pointed out the sword.

"Need to find it."

"And if we do, we can kill Lucifer with it?" Sam asked.

Bobby shrugged. "Start reading."

Bela sat down on one of the beds, and pulled out another book. Dean sat next to her.

"You okay?" Bobby asked Sam.

"Actually no. I did this Bobby. It's my fault, Lilith wasn't breaking the final seal. She was the seal, and I set him free."

Bobby nodded. "We heard, from Chuck."

"You guys tried to tell me, about Ruby, about doing this. I'm sorry. It's all my fault."

"Damn right." Bobby said.

Dean looked up at him. He hadn't expected that

"I really am sorry, I don't know what to say."

"Sorry, that you started the end of the world. Sam you can't just be forgiven for this. So if we survive this, then you need to forget my number. We're done after this." Bobby said, angry.

Sam looked at his feet, upset, but couldn't reply. He figured Bobby had every right to be angry, to hate him. "I'm going to go to the library, check some more books."

Bobby nodded, sitting down at the table. Sam walked out the door. Dean and Bela stared at Bobby. Dean said nothing though, he didn't have the right to. After everything Bobby had said to him though about family, he was just a bit surprised at Bobby's outburst.

"You okay?" Bela asked Dean quietly. She'd obviously given up being 'mad' he hadn't gotten in touch with her faster.

"No, not really."

"Dean." Bobby said. "Sorry...about Sam. Maybe your dad was right, about Sam."

"What about Sam?" Bela asked.

"About someday maybe having to kill him." Bobby said. "We didn't...and now, I'm just sayin', maybe we shouldn't of tried so hard to save him."

Bela sighed. God this was dramatic.

"Bobby..." Dean said.

"Nah, forget it. I was just thinking of what your dad had said."

Dean's face changed as a sudden thought crossed his mind.

"What?" Bela asked him.

"I saw something before, forgot all about it." Dean said. He walked to a collection of his dad's things. He then pulled out a business card from the journal. Dean threw it on the table. Bobby read it aloud.

"Castle storage?"

"Check the address." Dean said. "One of dad's old storage units."

"Well I'll be." Bobby commented.

"Yep."

Bela stood and glanced at the card. "So what, John Winchester had this sword the whole time?" she sighed. "Hmm of course he did."

Dean shrugged. "Hey can you let Sam know? We'll pack up." Dean said to Bela. She nodded, grabbing her jacket and walking for the door. She didn't really want to go talk to Sam by herself, but she could see that Dean was sort of avoiding him. The library was only down the street in the small town. She walked out the door.

"So, you think this location is it?" Bobby asked.

"Don't know what else what Chuck said woulda meant." Dean said.

"Sounds good to me." Bobby said. Suddenly he turned to face Dean, and shoved Dean into the wall. Dean picked himself up and stared up at Bobby. Bobby's eyes were black.

Damn it. Dean thought. He knew Bobby wasn't acting himself. The motel door opened as two more demons walked in. One of them was female. She walked over as the male demon and Bobby walked forward.

"Wow...Dean. I'm impressed. Here I thought you were so so dumb and unimportant. Now, you're the one supposed to kill the devil? If only I knew before, I woulda tore you apart then." She said.

"Ruby?" Dean tried.

"Nope." she replied quickly. "Try again Deano."

"Meg." Dean said.

'Meg' smiled at him.

"We owe your brother a very large thank you. Our father is among us."

Dean rolled his eyes.

"However, you and your girlfriend...we could do without. Dean, every one of us is lining up to take you out."

"Whatever, when am I not wanted dead? Take a number."

"I already have, and I'm first in line."

Dean stood. He tried to go after Meg, but she yelled for 'Bobby'.

"Mmm I cannot wait to see the only father figure still in your life slice into you." Dean noticed Bobby had the Knife. As Bobby came at him, Dean fought him off as much as he could.

The door to the room flew open and Sam and Bela rushed in.

"No." Sam yelled at Bobby.

Meg interceded Sam and he fought with her. Bela grabbed a bottle of holy water and threw the water on the third demon, but he overpowered her and held her back as Bobby was about to stab Dean.

"Bobby! Come on." Dean said.

Bobby then stopped as his arm was raised up above his head. He noticed what he was doing and struggled with control against the demon inside of him. The demon Bela was fighting looked to Bobby in surprise, giving Bela time to get out of his grab. She took the holy water and poured it in the demons face, making his eyes burn and he choked. Bela moved herself away as Bobby took the knife and brought it down ready to stab himself in the chest. Bela noticed and yelled at Dean. Dean struggled to get himself up and to Bobby. He was just quick enough to grab part of the handle of the knife and the knife landed in Bobby's stomach instead. Dean was hoping to grab the knife away and exorcise the demons but didn't have time. He caught Bobby as he fell.

Bela grabbed the knife from Dean and stabbed the third demon with it, killing him. They both looked to Sam who was struggling with Meg.

"Ah come on Sammy, miss me?" She teased.

"Meg."

She smiled. Sam glared at her.

Dean than stood and stalked towards her, Bela giving him the knife as he advanced at Meg. She noticed, and smoked out of the body she was riding.

"Damn it." Dean frowned.

Dean and Sam went over to Bobby. He had a pulse, but was unconcious.

"Dean?" Bela checked.

"We gotta get him to the hospital. Now."

Dean threw his keys at her, surprising Sam, and Bela went to pull the car around as Dean and Sam got Bobby up.

llllllllllllllllllll

Hospital. Night.

The nurses took Bobby back on the gurney while the three of them stood in the hall.

"Wait here. We need you to answer some questions."

The nurse walked back to the counter to get some things."

"Sam. We need to go."

"What? We can't now." Sam said.

"Demons heard where the sword is, we have to before they get to it."

Sam frowned...but he couldn't disagree.

"Go." Bela told them. "I'll stay here."

Dean looked to her.

"Seriously, go. Lying's what I do remember, I'll come up with something to tell the nurse and call you once they tell me how he is. Just go."

Dean nodded, and he and Sam took off down the hall.

llllllllllllllllll

Bela had made up some dramatic story about how Bobby ended up with the knife wound. All she'd been doing for the past half hour was wait. Dean and Sam hadn't called, Bobby was still being taken care of, and she was impatient. The doctor had came out a few minutes before to tell her that Bobby was holding on and would live, but they weren't sure on the extent of the damage the wound had caused. At least she could tell Dean that Bobby would live. That much helped. She couldn't imagine what Dean would do if they had lost him.

llllllllllllllllll

It was another several hours before Bobby was moved to a different room and she was technically allowed to go in, but she didn't. She spoke with the doctor, but stayed in the hall, figuring Dean should be the first in.

"You're the one with Mr. Shafer?" asked the Doctor.

She nodded. "Well, I'm waiting on the others."

"Right, his sons. Should I wait to speak about his condition.?"

"No that's alright." She said.

"Right. Well, we stopped the bleeding and any further injury, but it severed part of his spinal cord. Right now from what we've seen he has lost any mobility from the waist down, we don't know if it's permanent or not yet. He should be awake soon though. I assume it would be best to have his family with him when we tell him."

Bela let out a breath. She hadn't expected that, wasn't sure what Bobby would do with the news. Damn.

"Miss?"

"Wha...yeah, please wait." She nodded.

The doctor agreed, and left her alone in the hall. A few moments later she noticed Dean and Sam walking towards her. She smiled sadly as Dean reached her.

"Did you get it?"

"Um...long story, there is no actual sword. How's Bobby?"

Bela stayed silent for a moment, not sure what to say. "Bela? God please don't tell me that..." Dean started. Sam's face fell.

"No, he's alive...and probably will be awake soon. You can go see him."

"Then what is it?"

She sighed loudly. "He...well he may not be able to walk. He's lost all feeling from his waist down, according to the doctor."

Dean looked to Sam.

"Come on." Dean said to him. He walked to the room Bobby was in. Bela followed, but stayed outside the door once they reached the room.

llllllllllllllllllllll

Hospital Room. 20 min later.

"Not likely to walk? Bullshit you son of a bitch, just you wait til I get out of this bed I'm gonna..."Bobby was yelling at the doctor. The doctor decided he'd had enough after 15 minutes of yelling, and fled the room. Bela stood in the corner of the room while Dean and Sam were closer.

"Seriousy? That idiot." Bobby mumbled.

"Ah don't listen to him. You're gonna be fine." Dean tried.

"So...question is, what now?" Sam asked.

The two brothers had filled in Bela and Bobby about what had went down with the angels, that Dean was supposed to be Michael's vessel. That Cas was alive, the whole plan about Michael fighting Lucifer.

"Well, either way whether Heaven or Hell wins, we're screwed." Bobby said.

"What if we win instead?" Dean suggested.

"Huh?" Bobby asked, at the same time as Bela questioned him.

"I don't follow." she commented as well.

"I'm saying, screw the friggin' angels and demons, screw the apocalypse. Let's take them all out, kill them, kill the demons, kill Lucifer. We do it ourselves, and they can go find another planet to destroy."

"You serious?" Bobby asked him.

Bela looked to Dean as if he was insane.

"How?" Sam questioned.

"No idea yet. But if we don't succeed we might as well go for it, because either way we might die, so might as well die fighting."

The all stared at him, he just shrugged.

"Alright, you keeping getting better, we'll see you soon." Dean told Bobby. He motioned for the others to leave with him.

They got to the door when Bobby called out to Sam.

"Hey. Look, I know what I said when I was possessed, or what that demon said to you. Just so you know, I'm not done with you Sam, I'll forgive you."

Sam nodded. He just wasn't sure he'd forgive himself.

The three of them walked out and headed for the impala. They were about to get inside when Sam spoke.

"Guys...what about the Colt?" Sam asked, looking to Bela.

"I checked a few times...haven't located it yet. I can try again."

"What difference would that make?" Dean asked them.

"We could attempt to use it on Lucifer." Sam said. "Dean, you just said in there that we fight."

"I said that for Bobby, I mean sure we'll fight, but we both no we don't stand a good chance."

Bela gave him a look, but he wasn't paying attention, he was looking at Sam.

"Dean?" Sam questioned.

"No don't, okay? I tried to ignore it, but I'm done pretending. You chose a demon over me. I can't just forget that."

"I know, and I wish I could just keep saying I'm sorry, but I can't take it back no matter how many times I say it."

"I get it, I get you're sorry. But I can't just forgive and forget right now."

Bela got in the backseat. This was between the brothers. Sure, she agreed with Dean too, Sam made an irreversible error. But right now? Not the best time to be talking about it. Too much to deal with.

"Dean I don't know what to do, what I can do." Sam said.

"You can't do anything Sam. Not right now. I'm not sure I can trust you anymore. We can hunt...push it down, but don't expect things to be how they were before."

Sam nodded. Dean got into the driver seat and started the car. Sam finally got in the car as well.

End Chapter.
