Something evil is afoot in a small rural town in Midwestern America, and it’s up to Sam and Dean to find out what. With the help of a small woman named Zepheera, they’ll do their best to save the town and Zepheera’s time-travelling alien friend from the greatest evil the Winchesters have ever faced.

This is a contest entry for @nightmares06. It features characters from my Doctor Who/Borrowers crossover series ‘Borrowed Time (and Space)’ with a little tweak in Zepheera’s size to put her to Sam’s scale. This is not canon for BTAS and takes place sometime before Taken in Brothers Apart.

The
silence between them was broken by Zepheera, who peeked around the console at
the brooding men. “Sorry,” she piped up, “But I think I have something that’ll
help.”

Without
waiting for permission to share, she approached Dean and thrust a pair of
glasses onto his face. Dean blinked in surprise. The square lenses were fake,
but it was certainly the last thing Dean expected Zepheera to do.

“How
do you know it’s the Star?” asked Dean, voice rough from sleep. Sam sat on
his shoulder, looking just as disheveled as his brother and slightly more
alert. But not by much. Zepheera had just shown them as much footage from the
scene as she could find on the local news sites.

“The
guy spontaneously combusted.”
Zepheera emphasized. “Blew up, out of nowhere. No other damage to the
apartment, so it couldn’t have been a bomb. And the poor kid was on the phone
with his sister when it happened.”

“So
we have a possible witness,” Sam chimed in.

Zepheera
had recently been plagued by nightmares so hellish they’d wake her up several
times in the night. Sometimes she dreamt of the terrible things the Wage Star
was making the townspeople do to each other; she had a childhood encounter with
an alien to thank for psychic dreams such as these. But often, she dreamt about
the Doctor…about waking up to find him not breathing. Dreams like this were
much too similar to the other kind, and they either kept her awake or brought
her sleep to a screeching halt.

But
for the first time in days, the borrower woke up the next morning feeling
well-rested. Ordinarily, she would be so groggy that she could barely function
without a cup of tea. Last night’s events must have alleviated more stress than
she thought, because as she sat up and stretched herself fully alert she
couldn’t recall one time her sleep had been interrupted.

Zepheera
combed her fingers through her tousled bob, and her gaze dropped down and over
to find the Doctor. “Morning, old man,” she mumbled as usual.
