Running. Can't stop running. Have to keep running.

"Come on Sammy, where you running to?"

Can't stop. If he stops...

Run. Run. Run. Where is he? nothing looks familiar. How did he get here? Where is here?

"Sammy!"

Sam fell to his knees and gripped his head. He could hear sirens getting louder and louder and someone talking to him. What were they saying? Someone else was talking now. Someone new. It took Sam a few minutes to realize it was his own voice he was hearing. What was he saying?

"You can't keep running Sam."

"Get out of my head!"

The sirens were louder now, the lights flashing all around him. Sam felt hands on him and a prick in his beck, and then everything faded to black.

"Where the hell could he have gone?" Dean said angrily, pacing back and forth.

"We'll find him Dean," Ash said, attempting to sound reassuring.

As soon as everyone realized Sam was missing they'd gone into hunter mode.

Gabriel and Balthazar were out looking anywhere they could think of from up high while Bobby and Ellen were out driving around, asking other hunters if they'd heard anything. It had been two days ago.

In the mean time, Ash was listening to his angel eavesdropping device to see what the non-friendly angels were saying and to see if Sam's name came up. All the while Jo had been tasked with keeping the kids busy so they wouldn't think anything was wrong..

Dean had been instructed to "stay put" incase Sam returned. Really though Bobby didn't want Dean running all over town while he wasn't thinking straight.

Dean cursed and stomped off into the kitchen.

"Dean..." Cas followed slowly. "I know you are worried about Sam, but I'm sure he will be fine. You two have been through a lot in the past and-"

"And what Cas? We always come out on top? We made it through all this other crap so we'll make it through this too? Well what if we don't, huh? At what point does the Winchester luck run out? I thought angels were supposed to protect their charges? Lot of good it's done so far."

Cas said nothing. In these past few years he'd learned about and felt a lot of emotions, but this... This one was new. It was like something was breaking inside him.

Ash sat quietly in the other room, unsure what to do. He was saved from having to say anything when Dean's phone rang.

"Hello? ... This is him. ... When? ... Where? ... Yeah I'll be right there." He hung up.

"Sam's at a hospital in Indiana, the police took him there after they found running all over the city."

"That's great!" Ash exclaimed, "I'll call Ellen."

Cas made as if to follow Dean when the other man picked up his keys, but Dean stopped him.

"You should stay here," Dean said.

"But-"

"Cas, I don't know what condition Sam will be in so I think it's better if you stay here." Dean sounded almost remorseful when he said it, but Cas didn't notice. That feeling inside was getting worse.

"I'll let you know when I know something," Dean said. "Get some rest." And with that, he was gone.

Cas turned to face Ash.

"He's just stressed," Ash said, "He'll apologize for yelling as soon as he sees Sam is fine."

Cas didn't say anything, he couldn't say anything, as a pain tore through his abdomen and then there was nothing.

For the record Dean isn't being a huge asshole on purpose he's under a lot of pressure and is stressed out and unfortunately Cas was in the line of fire here.

Also, sorry this wasn't up Wednesday. Writers block + Babysitting = late updates.

However, even if a chapter is late I can guarantee I will be posting a chapter every week because I'm almost at 100 chapters!

I'm very excited about this and have something exciting (at least I think so) planned to celebrate which I'll talk about when it gets closer.

Something else I'm excited about is the Supernatural convention in a couple weeks. Let me know if any of you are going cause that would be amazing!

Thanks so much for reading and let me know what you think!
