Men In Black - complete

Chapter 32

"So what's the cover?" asked Sam.

"Basically a hunt gone wrong. Since for some reason the supernatural set hasn't figured out we're not Winchesters, I want you to spread the word I broke my leg or something. That should keep people from asking why I'm not with you for a while. Remember to give me a year before you call Crowley asking where I am. The less attention you draw to the fact I'm not on Earth, the easier it will be for me to slip past them," said Dean.

Dean had decided not to put off his trip into hell. Crowley said that two months would be more than sufficient to complete his contract, which was how long Sam had to fool everyone. And to help that, Dean had contacted Loki and told him to 'go nuts' with pranks.

As far as anyone would be concerned, Sam had opted to go into a prank war with the pagan while Dean was laid up with a pair of broken legs.

Crowley had given Dean the location of the hell gate, and Dean had given it to Sam just in case. If only so Sam would know where to go when Crowley (or Mort) told him when Dean left hell.

Bear was going with him, if only to keep the demons from looking too closely at Stitch.

As far as they were concerned, Dean's creature form was some bizarre hell beast.

Crowley said he had seen freakier things in the pit.

Sam was unhappy Dean was going to hell at all, but realized that it was better to do this now when the contract hadn't even been two months old than to wait and make the chances of the demons realizing what Dean had done too early.

Loki had promised to keep Sam safe until Dean's return. He seemed very amused Dean trusted him to do something like that.

Dean hugged his brother tightly. He took a deep breath and turned into Stitch. The longer he took to go into the hell gate, the more likely he was to put it off. Bear immediately leaned down so Dean could climb onto his back.

Dean gave his brother a salute, to the amusement of Loki and Sam. Then he and Bear disappeared.

It would be months before Sam saw his brother again.

It was hot. It was filled with the most tortured screams. And it was full of pain.

Bear was completely unconcerned about it. Stitch left a small charm at the opening so he could find it later. It was nothing really, most demons were likely to ignore it entirely. But the active magic would make finding his way back so much easier.

"Well Bear, let's check out hell," said Stitch. His voice always sounded warped in this form.

It made it that much harder to pin things on him. Well, unless it was Sam because let's face it, he always knew when it was Dean's doing.

So Dean decided to see where ol' Johnny boy landed.

It took him a full week on Earth, but ten years in hell. Loki wasn't joking about the time difference, and the only reason Dean knew about how long it took was because of the charm most people used instead of getting a damn watch. (The more advanced application could also tell the date.)

Dean took one look, and then left.

John Winchester was an asshole, and Dean had only come here out of curiosity. He found it hard to pity someone who caused so much harm with his damn paranoia.

Pleased to see John getting exactly what he deserved, he went to see where Dumbledore and Voldemort ended up. If only so he could piss on their decaying and tortured bodies for all the crap they put him through. Maybe if he was lucky he would run into Snape.
