The Righteous Man

Chapter nine

Dean woke up in a basement much to his surprise, the last thing he knew was that he was in the car and this black smoke appeared.

"Where the hell am I?" He asked, looking around trying to figure out where he was. The walls were rocky and the room itself looked like an old dungeon cell. He tried to get up but someone or something kept him from going anywhere.

"Going somewhere?" A voice asked. Dean backed away as he heard heavy footsteps come down the stairs. He wasn't stupid and had a feeling that whoever was coming down the stairs was the demon who wanted his head. Dean tried to get up a second time but this time a chain around his ankle prevented him from getting up. A man stepped into the dark and damp room and Dean couldn't see much of him, but he was able to make out a scar. "I'm afraid I can't let you go," the figure said, turning on a small light from the ceiling. "Pleasure to finally meet you Dean, I'm B," the demon said to him. Most would think that seeing a bald man dressed in all black with yellow eyes would cause someone to look away but Dean could do nothing but stare, especially at the scar along his face. It was faded but it was still visible, and Dean wondered where it came from.

"Let me go," Dean said, trying to be brave. But B only laughed at him and pushed him to the ground roughly. Dean panted as he tried to calm himself down, his heart hadn't been prepared for a scare like that.

"Oh come on this is the boy who has been avoiding my grasps," B taunted. He couldn't believe Michael would choose a scared kid like this as his true vessel. He didn't even know how to fight so what threat could he be? "He just seems like a scared little kid to me," he continued.

"I am not afraid of you," Dean declared and those words seemed to anger B. He forced Dean against the wall with his demonic powers and grabbed his throat.

"You will be," B said to him. Despite the fact that he was being strangled Dean noticed the chain and vial across B's neck. Call him crazy but he figured it was Sam's grace, and there was only one way to get it.

"Don't hurt me please," Dean said, staging himself to look as helpless as possible. "I'll do whatever you want," B liked that and let Dean go. However he didn't notice that when Dean fell to the ground coughing, he had the vial hidden in his hand.

"Anything even if I want to use you as a vessel?" B asked in a mocking manner. Dean only nodded, not wanting to say anything, he had to make this look real until Sam and Castiel came to rescue him. He didn't know how long that would take so he needed to stall until they got here. "Such a good boy," B said, grabbing Dean by the chin. "I have plans for you," Dean wondered what the demon was going to do to him, especially if it meant possessing him. The demon stepped away from Dean letting go of his chin.

"I know your brother and that angel are coming for you Winchester," said B. "But I'll let you know this now, if you try anything, I will have to be forced to hurt the ones who care about you,"

"Leave them out of this," Dean said finally speaking: "they have nothing to do with it,"

"On the contrary, they do," B responded "they've been keeping you from me, but now after all these years I've finally found you," before the demon could say anything else upstairs he had heard someone locking picking a door and entering the house a smirk appeared on his face as he turned back toward Dean. "Looks like it's showtime kid, you did say that you'll let me do anything to you," Dean backed away until he was against the wall and B flashed his golden eyes at him. At the sametime Sam and Castiel had broken into the house, even without his grace Sam could sense the high amount of demon activity. He also knew that something was off, not only with the house itself but with Dean.

"Something isn't right," Sam said to Castiel.

"No kidding this place is a demon's playground," Castiel answered, taking out his demon knife and holy water. Sam tried to tell the hunter that wasn't what he meant but then the two were surrounded by four demons.

"Look at this," one of the demons taunted. "You two came to join the party," Sam took out his angel blade wanting to stab the demon. He had lost his grace, and recently lost his charge so he was done playing nice.

"I'd rather crash it," Sam said killing the demon instantly. Two other demons tried to attack Sam to get revenge on him for killing one of their siblings but Castiel killed them both before Sam even noticed them. "Thanks," Sam said to him.

"Don't mention it," Castiel responded using his flask of holy water on the last demon present in the room. Sam however wanted answers so he grabbed the demon and pushed him against the wall. The demon struggled but Sam prevented him from moving by placing his angel blade to his throat.

"Look at you? Not so nice without your charge are you?" The demon mocked.

"Shut your mouth!" Sam screamed not caring if another demon heard him, he would kill every single one of them for daring to take Dean away. "Where is he?!" Sam demanded.

"Sam," Castiel said, trying to stop the angel from doing something he would regret. But Sam didn't listen, there was nothing more dangerous than an angry Guardian angel if their charge got taken away from them. However, before Sam could do anything the demon was pulled out of his host.

"Oh my gosh please don't hurt me," the frantic mortal begged once he saw the expression on Sam's face. Sam let the mortal go and turned around to see what appeared to be Dean.

"This is your guy's idea of a rescue?" Dean asked and Castiel forgot all his training to run to his brother. The two embraced and Castiel apologized for not arriving sooner.

"Dean I am so sorry, but I promise that once this is all over you will not get taken again," Castiel said to him. He was holding a lot of emotions and Dean made a joke about the few tears he thought no one could see.

"Well look at you? Not going to drown in your tears are you big brother?" Dean teased. Sam tensed up because he knew that this wasn't Dean, he could see the demon's face and knew it was B.

"Castiel step away from him," Sam said, breaking the tender moment.

"Sammy come on let us have our moment," B responded. Sam had to hand it to him, he was an incredible actor but Sam was still able to see right through his act because of his ugly demon face.

"Don't call me that and just so you know your ugly face gave you away," Sam declared. Castiel stepped away as if was registering what Sam was saying. B tried to convince Castiel that he was Dean, but the hunter threw holy water in his direction causing his cover to be blown.

"Guess the cat is out of the bag," B said, letting his golden eyes glow. "Hello Samuel," he said, referring to Sam. "Lose something?" He mocked.
