The Most Important People in the Universe

by it-will-be-anarchy

Castiel pulls Dean Winchester from hell with only one notion: this man is destined to be the Most Important Man in the Universe. Meanwhile, the Doctor gets a message from the angels (and not the weeping ones): they need his help to contact the woman who was once the Most Important Woman in the Universe, even though she's forgotten now.

11. Chapter 11

I don't know where I am. It's like I'm breaking into a million pieces and there is only one thing I remember: I have to save the Doctor. He always looks different. I always know it's him. Sometimes I think I'm everywhere at once, running every second just to find him. Just to save him. But he never hears me. Almost never. I blew into this world on a leaf. I'm still blowing. I don't think I'll ever land. I'm Clara Oswald. I'm the impossible girl. I was born to save the Doctor.

River's grip slid on the hilt of her knife as it became soaked in blood. She couldn't afford to stop, not a single second. Every nerve ending was on fire. What she had become, she didn't even know. But she was untouchable. This must be what she was meant for. She had always been destined to become this.

I don't know where I am. I just know one thing: follow her. The impossible girl is shattering, and it's my job to pick up the pieces. She's the only thing that matters to me, just as the Doctor is the only thing that matters to her. She was born to save the Doctor, but she can't do it if she's broken apart. So that's just what I do. She's born. She lives. She dies. I put her back together so she can do it again. I'm Sam Winchester. This is my mission.

Jack laughed every time an enemy struck a fatal blow. Within moments he would be up again. Their confusion was his entertainment. They never suspected that a human could not die. They never suspected that he was invincible. His bitter, unending life was his asset. They could do nothing but fall before him.

I don't know where I am. I don't think she does either. She's not careful. She's uncertain. So I follow her trail. She makes everything wrong. I just remember one thing: I need to make her stop. I'm the only one who can find her. I'm Dean Winchester. I'm a hunter. I was raised from hell. I'm meant to fix this.

Cas hacked at his own brothers and sisters. It felt so wrong. He knew no other way, though. He had given up his old life for a broken man. A broken man he could only ever dream of fixing completely. His allegiances had changed, ever since the day he had raised that man from perdition.

I don't know where I am. I just know I'm running. Sometimes it's like I've lived a thousand lives in a thousand places. I'm born, I live, I die. And always, there's the Doctor. Always I'm running to save the Doctor. Again and again and again. And he hardly ever hears me. But I've always been there. Right from the very beginning. Right from the day he started running.
