( Part 2 of 4 )
Dean whipped around at the voice. A woman stood there, her face passionless as she stared back at him. Red eyes glimmered at him.
A crossroad demon. The maker of deals.
Dean practically threw himself at her, grabbing her shoulders. “Bring him back!” His voice practically begged her. His brother, his partner, the person who relied on him above all others. “Bring Sammy back to life!”
The demon pulled herself out of his arms effortlessly. Pure demon strength showed through in the movement. Nothing Dean did could keep her still.
“Well what do we have here,” she clucked as her eyes changed back to the darkest brown orbs he’d ever seen. “A kicked puppy that lost his best friend.”
“Please,” Dean begged, his voice hoarse. “Please, just bring him back. You can have my soul, just bring back Sam.”
She crossed her arms and started to pace around the circle. “You Winchesters. You’re all the same, so willing to give themselves up for each other. But no.”
His heart pounded in his ears as he tried to blink away a sudden surge of anger. “No? What do you mean, no… I give you my soul, and you give me what I ask, that’s how it works.”
Red lips painted with luscious lipstick curled into a smile. More like a snarl. “I can only bring him back if he was actually dead. Now, try again.”
Not dead? Dean’s mind focused right on that thought. But he’s been gone for–
How long?
“What do you mean, he isn’t dead?” Dean snapped. “He’s been gone for…”
“Six months,” the demon supplied helpfully. “Your little Sammy hasn’t been around for six months now.”
