A Mess It Grows ~ Supernatural Fanfiction

The Van Allen's vs A Dose of Crazy

All four of them were aware of how crazy their plan was. Still, they had no other choice but to get into that psychiatric hospital to help their father's friend. They had spent over three weeks mourning at Bobby's place. And finally, Sam had decided that he had spent enough time doing research with Bobby. He tried to get his brother and the girls to go back on the road with him, but Dean didn't show any motivation to do anything but work on his car, drink a huge amount of booze and lock himself in the room that had sort of become his over the years. And the girls wouldn't go unless it was all of them, claiming it wouldn't be right to hunt without Dean especially when Dean was in the state he was in now. Sam had tried to be patient and present for his brother, but there were times when it was too much for him.

Sam had nearly found it to be a miracle when Martin Creaser, Tom and John's old friend, had contacted them for help about a case. Sam knew that Dean wouldn't refuse helping that man who had saved their father in the past. Sure, the younger brother was a bit skeptical as to what the case really was about, but he would have taken anything that would get Dean to understand that they had to go back to work. And when Karoline hoped on board with the plan he knew he had won.

And that was how they found themselves sitting across Doctor Fuller in the Glenwood Springs Psychiatric Hospital while this latter read the file Dean and Karoline had given him about Sam and Alayna.

"You were referred to me by a Doctor Babar in Chicago," Doctor Fuller told them, looking back and forth at them and the file before his eyes.

"That's right," Dean confirmed.

"Isn't there a children's book about an elephant named Babar?" The Doctor inquired.

"I don't know... I don't have any elephant books," Dean replied, slightly shrugging. He leaned in. "Look, Doctor, I-I-I think the doc was in over his head with these two," he told him, pointing at Sam and Alayna. "'Cause they are..." He trailed off, circling his finger at the side of his head and whistling to illustrate the craziness of his brother.

Doctor Fuller immediately raised a hand, stopping him, "Okay, fine, thank you. That's-that's really not necessary." He then grabbed his file and notepad as he looked at Sam. "Why don't you tell me how you're feeling, Alex?"

"I'm fine," Sam sighed, playing the role he was supposed to play. "I mean, okay, a little depressed, I guess."

"Okay. Any idea why?" Doctor Fuller asked, taking notes.

"Probably because I started the apocalypse," Sam simply replied.

Karoline had told them that if they told their story straight, they would instantly get admitted to that hospital. And, by the way the doctor paused and then looked up at Sam, it seemed that Karoline was right.

"The apocalypse?"

"Yeah, that's right," Sam confirmed, causing the doctor to look at Dean who smiled to him.

"And you think you started it?" Doctor Fuller asked.

"Well, yeah, I mean... I killed this demon, Lilith, and I accidentally freed Lucifer from hell. So now, he's topside, and we're trying to stop him," Sam replied, doing his best to ignore the slight heartache that saying these words out loud created in him. "Oh, and his girlfriend."

"Lucifer... has a... girlfriend?"

"Yeah," Sam nodded. "Her names Charity. We're trying to stop them."

"Who is?" Doctor Fuller slightly frowned.

"Me. A-and Alyssa," Sam casually answered, pointing at Alayna. "And these two." He gestured back to Karoline and Dean who both offered a small wave. "And this one angel."
