ANYWAY enough rambling from me! Hope you all enjoy and much luv! 3

Sam didn't know what to do with his life now. He had no school, and apparently no friends. Also his brother is out hunting, so that meant Dean was out of the question, unless if he decided to text him. Although.. What if Dean got distracted because of Sam, and he got injured? Or.. Worse?

Bobby watched Sam sit quietly at the couch in his living room, and he rolled his eyes at the obvious bored look on the teenager's face before he walked over.

"Sam, go do somethin' like a normal kid and go bug yer parents or somethin'. Go throw a ball around." He advised and Sam looked up at Bobby.

"Is Dean gonna be alright?" He asked, curious for Bobby's opinion. Bobby snorted, and sat down at his desk.

"Dean has gone against much scarier monsters than a simple ghost and gotten much worse injuries than you can imagine, boy." He huffed and Sam frowned.

"Like?" He investigated into it, and Bobby fidgeted slightly.

"I ain't the one you should ask, boy." He told him and Sam grunted and started to look around the house. He found a picture frame that was face-down on one of Bobby's shelf's and he flipped it up to see a picture of not only a grumpy looking Bobby, but also a grumpy looking Dean and Cas!

His eyes widened and he looked at the back again and saw that this picture was taken two years ago. When he looked back, he realized this was probably the period of Dean going through the thickest part of puberty.

Dean didn't look too much different in this picture, but he was shorter, and had more of a depressed look on his face.

"Hey Bobby, what's wrong with Dean in this picture?" Sam decided to question Bobby on it and held the frame up to show Bobby.

The seasoned hunter hummed softly at it before he shook his head.

"That was a time where your brother was going through tough times." He nodded at the sad look in Dean's eyes.

"How come?" Sam grimaced, not expecting Dean to have depression, but it could be possible.

"He had seen a lot of shit that year, so it brought him down. Plus apparently he was having a tough time with some kids at his school or something." Bobby explained as he rubbed his short beard and Sam took back the picture to keep staring at it.

Bobby knew Sam wanted more of a story, but Bobby didn't want to go into detail about Dean's nightmares. He knew he'd get a strong and hard kick to the groin for that being spilled.. Well he already did but Dean didn't know that.

So instead Bobby left the boy to his thoughts to grab himself a beer. Little did he know, Sammy had an idea, and it involved leaving the salvage yard alone.


Dean stared at the article, but his eyes never drifted along the text. Instead he was stuck on one word, not because he didn't know it. But because his mind was else where.

"Dean, I suggest you give your brain a break." Castiel's voice came from the other side of the room, and Dean looked up from the paper to see Castiel cleaning Dean's guns.

Honestly, Dean will never understand Cas. He always told the angel he didn't need to clean the guns and his weapons since that was usually considered as an easy punishment from Bobby. But Castiel insisted that he wanted to clean the weapons.

It made it easier on Dean though, so he didn't object about it too much.

"Cas we got an hour before we can go see the police station. Damn their rules for opening up at nine." Dean grumbled as he tossed the papers onto the desk and lounged back in his chair.

Castiel stayed silent and went on to Dean's shotgun and ran the damp cloth over it before he stood back up again to wet it.

"Hey Cas.. What do you think would be safest way to keep my family safe?" Dean asked, wanting the angel's opinion on all this.

"I suggest you lock them in an angel, demon proof room until you meet your doom." Castiel stated flatly his tone never breaking or lifting, which meant he was dead serious. The blue eyed vessel lifted his head.

"Why?"

Dean picked his jaw up and frowned before he turned away and scratched his suddenly warm neck.

"No reason. I'm gonna go grab a six-pack." He said quickly before he left the room.

As he hopped in the Impala, he pulled out his phone and scrolled over to Bobby's name and number. He ghosted his thumb over the call button but stopped himself. He didn't need to talk to him right now. What he needed right now was a girl on his lap, and a beer on his lips.

Although, he knew Cas would be pissed if he skipped the job by going to a strip club so he just drove to the general store nearby and bought what he said he would. A six pack, and added some beef-jerky.

When he was walking out to the car, his phone vibrated in his pocket and he growled shortly and rested the six-pack on the trunk and fished his phone out. Bobby's name was popped up on the screen. Well that saved him calling Bobby.

He answered, and was met with a distressed tone from Bobby that he's rarely ever heard.

"Dean, we don't know where Sam is!"

Well Dean got his shit in the Impala fast and was already starting the engine.

"What do you mean you don't know?" Dean snapped as he weighed his options. Leave the job and let others get hurt or worse, or let his little brother venture the world where any demon or monster could get his claws in him.

"Dammit Bobby what do I do?" Dean gritted his teeth, and he waited for Bobby's response, but instead he heard curses on the other side and the phone was being struggled around, before Dean heard his father's voice.

"Dean get back here now. We need you searching." Dean ground his teeth together, and he glanced at some of the left over article papers left in the passenger seat. It was said there was huge numbers of people hanging themselves, but the people were perfectly sane, happy, and hard workers.

"Dad I can't just drop everything and go!" He cried, unable to figure out what to do.

"Dean." A new voice came from behind Dean and the hunter whirled around to see Cas sitting behind him in the backseat.

"I can finish this job, don't worry. Go find Sam." Castiel explained and Dean felt all the relief crash on him.

"Thanks Cas." He put every ounce of relief into that word before he returned the phone to his ear.

"Okay John. If you can get a car running, start going up and down the highway. He couldn't have strayed far and if you find anything, call me." Dean said quickly before Cas flew out of the car and Dean rolled out of the parking lot and immediately made his way out of the city.


Sam walked, and he walked. He never expected the highway to go this long, but he was asleep when they passed this last. Plus it was dark.

When he began to get thirsty and hot, he'd take a break and sit but then he stopped doing that whenever someone would pull over and offer a ride. He didn't want a ride. He wanted to be like his big brother and keep going.

Sam had been walking for what felt like a hour when he noticed a girl with long blonde hair sitting on the ground. She seemed to be Sam's age and he approached her easily.

"Hey." He said and her head moved to him and he was surprised by how pretty she was. She had dark eyes but a beautiful face.

"Oh wow, I'm not the only one out here then." She laughed and Sam felt his legs shake a little at her voice and laugh.

"Uh yeah.. What are you doing out here?" He asked curiously, and she stood up and Sam felt annoyed that she was about his height. She began to dust off her jeans as she answered.

"Parents ditched me on the side of the road because I was apparently too loud on my phone." She grumbled as she looked at Sam and offered a smile.

"So what about you?" She asked and Sam fought back a blush. What was he doing out here again? He had decided he had enough in the house but that sounded wimpy, so he decided to lie.

"I'm in the same boat. My brother and I got into a fight so he dumped me and left. I'm hoping he'll come pick me up soon." He said, and got annoyed when her eyes flickered with interest.

"Who's this brother of yours?" She asked, but Sam grunted.

"An ass." He muttered and the girl laughed. Sam was instantly cheered up by the voice, and he yearned to hear it more.

"Well I say we make our way to the nearest town, buy ourselves a hearty meal and ditch our families. They can't just do these things to us." She said and Sam nodded, but felt a little uncomfortable. He honestly hoped that his brother would come and pick them both up right now so he doesn't have to go through the embarrassment of letting her know he doesn't have any money.

They began to walk, and they chatted but Sam noticed she asked a lot of questions about his family. Like how old his brother was, what his parents did for jobs, where they lived, and what he was going to do in the future.

She asked really hard questions, and he was pissed at his family for being so difficult.

"Oh look! Two miles until we reach town!" The girl exclaimed and pointed at the green sign, and Sam suddenly realized what he never asked. It must've been the heat or something.

"What's your name? I never asked it." Sam smiled at her and the girl looked to him before she smiled in return.

"My name? It's Ruby."


Dean came to Bobby's salvage yard a couple hours later and found his parents were gone but the owner of the salvage yard was still home.

"Hold it son, yer exhausted and can't go back out yet." Bobby tried when Dean ran in and looked around the house, and was about to race back out.

"I don't give a damn right now, Bobby! My brother could be out there, laying in a ditch for all we know." He growled and had to wonder why Bobby was just sitting here, when he was the best searcher out there. So he voiced his question and Bobby squinted at him.

"Yer parents asked me to stay here in case you came here." He explained and Dean growled.

"Well then come with me now." Dean said as he started pulling Bobby to the door, but Bobby resisted easily.

"I need to also wait and see if yer good fer nothin' brother comes around." He corrected and Dean glared before he nodded and ran back to the Impala. The heat in her was beginning to get to a new level but Dean couldn't give a rats ass at the moment. He needed to find his brother.

He drove out of the salvage yard but paused when he came to the highway. Which way should he go?

Then he thought of who he was looking for, and turned right. Right was always Sam's favorite for some reason. It would always be too simple to track Sam when he was younger though, and he hoped this hadn't changed because otherwise he was heading in the complete opposite way.

He drove along, and it came to be fifteen minutes when he finally saw Sam and another girl. He didn't care about the girl right now. Instead he parked on the side and stormed over to his brother and smacked him on the back of the head angrily, but knew his concern was just melting into that.

"Dammit Sam! Why can't you just keep your ass at Bobby's?" He didn't care if he was embarrassing his brother in front of a girl right now. He needed his brother to be taught a lesson.

Sam's face was red as he took Dean's lecture with his head bowed and ignored the stare of Ruby.

Finally, the girl stepped up.

"You can't just boss him around when you treat him like shit!" She snapped and Dean blinked, as if he completely forgot she was even there, before he narrowed his eyes.

"Excuse me but this doesn't concern you. This is my little brother, and he didn't listen to me. Heck, he should just walk home." He turned his gaze back to Sam who looked like he wished the earth would open up and swallow him.

"Like hell it doesn't concern me! You ditch him on the side of the road, and now you're shouting at him for leaving you?" Ruby sized up to Dean and the older brother looked confused for a couple moments, before he realized why she thought he ditched Sam, and he sent a short glare at Sam before he looked back to the girl.

"If he doesn't want to come back with me to the house, where it's safe-" He paused for meaning in his words before he continued "or if he wants to come with a complete stranger, then fine." He stared at the girl suspiciously, his supernatural radar going off but he doesn't know yet what the monster is, and how to handle it. All of his weapons are behind him in the trunk, and he knew the monster would stop him first if he made a dash for it.

Sam squirmed under the pressure, and he felt that he wanted to go with Ruby. Badly actually, but he knew Dean wanted him to come home with him.

"Uh.. I'll go with you Dean." He mumbled and looked at Ruby.

"As long as we drop her off in the nearest town." He added and Dean rose an eyebrow and looked between them before he reluctantly agreed.

"Fine. Let's go." He said to them and led them to the Impala. In around five minutes they reached the nearest town and dropped the girl off in front of a liquor store.

"You're welcome." Dean grunted and looked back ahead and winced when she slammed the door. She rolled her eyes at Dean, before she leaned over to Sam's window and leaned in. Sam tried to avoid looking at her obvious cleavage now in her low cut shirt that was now showing off a lot more.

"See you Sam. You should text me." She winked at Sam and he eagerly pulled out his phone and exchanged numbers with her.

Dean had his hand against his cheek as he waited for them, and he rolled his eyes at Sam's geeky laugh and the girl obvious flirt attempts. Luckily, his brother is still innocent enough to not pick up on it.

When they pulled out, Sam was silent in the back and his phone was already going off. Dean turned around to tell Sam off to silence it, or Dean will throw it out the window. However before he even opened his mouth, a new scent filled his nose and he instantly crinkled it. He stopped on the side of the road for a moment and noticed light dust on the ashtray right where the girl was sitting.

That wasn't normal dust though. He jolted when he realized it was sulfur and he cursed as he quickly did a large U-turn and ignored Sam's confused protests and questions. He just drove back to the town and went back to where he dropped off the girl, but he saw no one there. The town was small, but there was nobody on the streets. He half expected a tumbleweed to roll out.

"Dean what's wrong?" Sam demanded as he climbed into the front seat. Dean barked at him angrily for dirty shoes, but was glancing back at the sulfur again.

"Okay you need to get back home." He ground out and set out to the highway again. He played loud music the entire way, no matter how many times Sam complained, he always slapped Sam's hands away when they made movement to the volume dial.

When they were about to pull into the salvage yard, he made a call to Cas.

"Hey Cas." He greeted when Castiel greeted from the other side.

"How's the hunt going?" He asked as he parked and watched Sam get out immediately and stride away quickly. He knew he was going to have to give Sam another lecture for just running away, but right now he had bigger issues.

"I'm closing in on the ghost. Did you find Sam?" Castiel asked and Dean quirked a lip slightly.

"Yeah and he's being difficult. I uh actually won't be able to join you on the hunt though. Something else has popped up." He explained and Castiel stayed silent for a couple moments.

"Do you need help for it?" Castiel asked and Dean looked ahead at the road.

"Nah. You finish your job first." He told Cas before he ended the call and went back into the road. He sent a quick text to John that Sam was home before he headed back to the town where the demon girl would hopefully still be.


Apparently she wouldn't be, because when Dean asked the locals, they all answered and told her that they never saw her. Or.. One man thought he saw a blonde but Dean was instead led to yes, a blonde but not the right one. The one he found was pressed up against a wall making out with another girl.

His patience was running low and his energy was following it quickly. Deep inside he knew the girl wasn't around but he was stubborn to the very core.

One day, he knew that stubbornness would kill him.

He sat on the trunk of the Impala and was looking around the streets when he got a text message.

Digging into his pocket, he brought out his phone to see John's number.

"Hey John." He answered, and he was answered with an annoyed grunt.

"Call me dad." He grumbled and Dean laughed as he slid into his car.

"What's the issue then?" He asked as he leaned back in the seat.

"Sam misses you." John chuckled and they both heard Sam shouting at John. Dean rolled his eyes but couldn't keep the small smile off of his face.

"Well just tell him I'll be back in a couple days." He said and winced when he could practically feel John's piercing eyes watching him from miles away.

"Dean, I miss you also. We all do and we'd like you to be here for a dinner for a once." John tried, but Dean was already disagreeing.

"Dad there's a reason why hunters hunt things. We'd much rather just sit in the world of oblivion like the rest of you do, but we can't have that luxury. We have to save and kill." Dean explained as he played around with the small amulet around his neck.

"Look Dean, I'm not asking you to give up hunting. I'm just asking you to come visit us for dinner." John affirmed and Dean sighed.

"Yeah, but how many people could get hurt, or worse when I'm clinking beer drinks with you? John I'm sorry, but I've never been able to sit around and sit with the thought o someone getting murdered, and I could be doing something about it... Ask Bobby." He added at the end as he remembered Bobby literally handcuffing him to the couch and left him there for Dean to unlock the cuffs himself.

"I already did and I'm gonna say it's not healthy. So I'm not suggesting it anymore Dean, I want your ass home now or I'm coming out there and dragging it home." John threatened, and Dean was nervous that he'd really do that. He didn't need his dad out in the world right now when Sammy was so close to going with a demon. What would John do? Accidentally hire a demon stripper?

He laughed lightly at the thought, then remembered he was still on the phone with John and so he stifled his laughs.

"Look John, don't come looking for me because you won't find me. Now goodbye John, I'll be back in a couple days." He said quickly, and was about to end the call when he heard John speaking again and he put his ear back on his phone.

"What was that?" He asked and heard John's smug tone.

"Bobby already taught me how to track you through your phone." He bragged, and Dean fumed silently at the older hunter. The earful the geezer was going to get when Dean got there...

"Good for you, dad but I'm not coming home yet. So do me and the family a favor and stay home." He said before he ended the call before John could say another thing.

Tossing his phone to the passenger seat, he rubbed his face with his hands and realized how much his old man took out of him just from talking.

Pulling back onto the road, he decided to go assist Cas since this job right now seemed dead in the water for now.

On the way, he tried to figure out how in fact, his father had turned on his GPS, and tried to turn it off repeatedly but it never worked. Once again, he was going to give Bobby his colorful words when he gets back.

So he dumped his phone back on the seat and continued to drive. If his father actually came after him, then hopefully he'll learn a lesson that'd keep him in the house for a month.


Sam sat on the couch, rereading a book and ignoring his parents anger and disappointment

He honestly really cared about his parents opinion but right now he just wanted to do things he wanted to do for a once.

"Sam do you want some lunch?" Mary called from the kitchen, and Sam curled his lip at her tone. It sounded like she was trying to sound normal, but there was a sink to her voice.

"No thanks mom." He called back before he grabbed his book and walked outside to go sit on the porch.

"Don't leave Sam." Mary cautioned and Sam nodded but rolled his eyes once he was turned away. He walked out onto the sunny porch and squinted as his eyes adjusted to the light.

Basking in the direct sunlight, he smiled to himself and sat down on the first step and reopened his book. He didn't stay focused for long however when he heard footsteps coming towards him. He peeked over his book and to his shock, Ruby was walking towards him with a smile on her face.

"Ruby?!" He exclaimed as he stood and stared at her with a slack jaw. He was wondering how the hell she knew where Bobby's was, but Ruby was already speaking.

"Hey Sam. I thought I'd come stop by because I want to hang out." She smiled brightly at him and Sam glanced at the kitchen window, but didn't see Mary.

"Sure. We can just walk around here or something." Sam said and so that's what they did. They joked, pushed each other lightly, and even made out a little in an old ford car.

That was, until Sam realized how very wrong this was all.

"Wait." He panted as he separated his lips, but Ruby was needed and chased after him and gave him one more peck before she rose an eyebrow.

"Is everything okay?" She asked and Sam edged away a little so Ruby wasn't practically sitting on his lap.

"I dunno.. This seems rushed. I'd never even made out with a girl before today." Sam mumbled, and he knew he still looked and acted like a kid in many ways. Maybe making out with a girl he didn't even know was really fast. His brother would be proud.

"It's fine Sammy.. You want to leave with me though?" Ruby asked as she rested her head on his chest and he frowned and fidgeted.

"Leave?" He echoed, curiously. She spoke of this before, but he wasn't sure.

"Yeah, you know. Leave your good for nothing family. Come with me and we can travel the world without any limits." She smiled at him and he squirmed slightly, uncomfortable at her leeching smile.

"I dunno.. My family.. I mean I just got my brother back from school and now I want to see him more but.." Sam had honestly never felt more conflicted and he didn't even know why. He suddenly realized he was thinking like a crazy person. Not even on his most stressful day would he consider leaving with a stranger, but now it felt oddly right.

"It's okay Sam.. Dean can come with us if you want. We would need an adult around so we could get out of situations if they come." Ruby reassured and Sam was suddenly excited by the idea as it all clicked into place. Moving around the world with Dean, and his possibly new girlfriend. It seemed perfect, and he wanted to call Dean right now to tell him of his plan.

"C'mon.. How about we see if any of the cars are working around here, and we can go find him?" She suggested as she pulled him out of the dead car and they went off to find one of Bobby's cars.


Dean had found Castiel in their motel room. Cas had apparently found a liquor store, and had apparently been feeling stressed lately so he drank.. A lot.

The hunter shook his head in disapproval at the state his best friend was in when he found him and dragged him to bed.

"Just sleep it off buddy." Dean reassured the drunk angel and Castiel made a quick grab for Dean's coat sleeve.

"You feel scared, don't you?" Castiel's usually focused eyes trained on Dean's, and the teenager felt uncomfortable.

"Uh.. Cas just go to sleep, okay?" He tried to pull Cas's hand off him but the angel was unrelenting.

"Dean you don't need to feel scared, because I'll be there for ya the wholee way." Cas cracked a grin and Dean frowned.

"Okay Cas that's good." He said as he finally peeled the angel's fingers off.

"Wait Dean." Dean was surprised by the desperation and fear in Castiel's voice as the angel practically lunged for Dean and wrapped his arms around him.

The hunter awkwardly tried to keep his balance with Castiel wrapped around him but found the angel was actually really heavy with all his drunk dead weight so he fell back on the bed, Castiel falling on top of him and landing them in a.. compromising position.

"Cas!" Dean squawked as he struggled to roll the angel off him, and once the angel fell back giggling, he sat up and breathed in heavily before he stood again.

"Look Cas.. Just please do me a major favor and go to sleep, okay?" Dean pleaded and helped the angel get tucked in before the hunter sighed heavily as the angel just stared at him blankly. Right. He forgot angels don't sleep.

"It's been a long day, okay?" He snapped at Castiel for no reason before he turned away and went to sit at the table and look at the information Castiel had gathered.

It wasn't much for a hunt, but there was name so he'd go burn the bones. Grabbing his car keys that he ditched on the table, he paused when he looked back at Cas and he wondered if he should just leave the angel here..

"He's got sigils on him so he can't be tracked.." He reasoned with himself before he made sure nobody could look in and see Cas.

"Dean where are yah going?" Castiel asked as he sat up and blinked at him through unfocused eyes.

"Just out, okay buddy? Just stay here." Dean explained before he left the room and made a beeline for the Impala. He rolled out soon after and with the information he needed in his pocket, he found the cemetery quickly and did another salt and burn after digging up the grave.

By the time he buried the grave, his back ached and his eyes hurt from tiredness.

When he had gathered everything, he made his trek back to the car which was fortunately not far. However his night took a swan dive when another car pulled up and he wasn't impressed when he saw the demon girl from earlier, but also Sammy riding shotgun.

he pulled his holy water and gun from his bag and calmly walked over to the parked car. He remained playing coy with the girl however, and just acted like an overprotective brother.

"Heya Sammy.. What the hell are you doing here?" He asked as he kept his tone laid back, but his eyes were sharp and cold.

Sam felt uncomfortable under Dean's gaze but he had already spoken to Ruby how to confront his brother.

"Hey Dean.. I didn't like staying at Bobby's.. I missed you." Sam turned on his puppy dog eyes, and Dean's gaze immediately, unwillingly softened and he frowned.

"Sammy you know we gotta stay at Bobby's.. It's safe." He said, but Ruby broke in and interrupted the boy's touching moment.

"I know somewhere that's even safer. You will never be found by another supernatural being. I promise." She swore and Sam turned and looked confused.

"Wait, how do you know about the supernatural?" He asked and Dean smirked internally at her mistake.

Although, she was much better at coming up with lies than Dean thought she could.

"Okay Sam.. I'll be honest I know about the supernatural. I also know about Dean." She glanced at him who sent an icy glare in return.

"He's well known, and I didn't want to tell you, since I was scared you'd leave me." She let her eyes lower, and Dean would've been convinced, if he already knew it was a big flat lie.

"Sorry but we're not interested in whatever you're selling. Sam, toughen up. I swear, Bobby is a good guy. He's always been there for me." Dean swore and Sam's eyes flickered with something Dean didn't understand for a second. It seemed like uncertainty, or something so he knew he was getting through to the boy a little.

"But.. I want you to be around me more." Sam grumbled and Dean sighed.

"Look Sam, I've already given this chat to dad like.. what feels like four times. Just go ask him why I can't stay. Now we gotta leave here because it's a little suspicious so you're going to hop in the Impala and come pick up Cas with me and go to Bobby's." Dean explained his plan to Sam, who glanced at Ruby.

"What about Ruby though?" Sam asked innocently and Dean narrowed his eyes at the girl.

"I'm going to talk to her, just get in the car Sam." He said to his younger brother before he guided Ruby away. As soon as they were far enough, he turned and sprayed her with Holy water.

She hissed loudly and her eyes flickered black and Dean took a defensive stance.

"What are you doing around Sam?" He demanded as he cruelly spilled more water on her and she fell to her knees but glared up at him harshly.

"I'm protecting him from Yellow Eyes." She snarled but Dean let out a harsh laugh.

"Yeah right. I'm sure that's what every demon would tell me. Sorry bitch, but you're not fooling me." He smirked darkly and she spat before she got up and raced. Dean was about to pursuit after her when he heard his name being shrieked. Not by just anyone though, and Dean felt his heart beat faster when he recognized Sam's pained yell.

He raced back to the Impala to see a man standing over Sam who had a bruise forming on his cheek. Sam had a wrist being held restraint by the taller man, and Dean didn't recognize him until he spotted the Yellow Eyes.

"Let him go." Dean put every ounce of hatred into his words and curled his lip.

"So nice of you to join us, Dean-o. I was just getting to the fun part." Yellow Eyes smirked and twisted Sam's wrist who tried to turn as well to lessen the tension and pressure, but from where Dean stood, he could hear the snap of bone.

"Damn you!" Dean shouted and pulled out his gun and fired an entire clip into Azazel but the demon barely flinched.

"Good aim Dean-o, but you know those don't affect me." He stated smugly and Dean growled darkly in his throat.

He hated not having many options, but he opted for speaking. Maybe distracting the demon for Sam to get away.

"You don't want him. You want me, so let him go." Dean ordered, and the demon shook his head, grinning wildly.

"Dean, how many times do I gotta tell you that I need both of you for this grand plan. Maybe I should just take little Sammy right now, and then let you come to me. You will, won't you?" Dean stayed silent but his muscles all shook with hatred for the demon.

Sam blinked away the tears as best as he could, before he ground his feet properly.

"My name isn't Sammy!" He shouted and gave a mean right hook to Azazel's cheek.

The demon was so shocked that the demon completely let go of Sam's wrist and the younger brother flew into his older brother, sobbing and holding his wrist.

Dean immediately pushed Sam behind him and sized up as much he could, but trembled when he saw Azazel become pissed off quickly.

"You little brat." He hissed at Sam who hid his face in Dean's back.

Yellow Eye's was just about to come forward when a knife stabbed into his shoulder from behind. The two Winchester's froze as Azazel screamed in pain and the knife withdrew and he turned to see Ruby holding a special knife.

She waved it dangerously with her eyes flickering to black threateningly and they both seemed to have a staring contest until Yellow Eye's black smoke exploded from his vessel's mouth and left the corpse.

Ruby watched with satisfaction until she let her eyes return back to normal and she looked at the Winchester's baffled expressions.

"What?" She asked, curious and grew annoyed when they continued to stare at her.

"What?!"
