What Was Left Behind

Warning: Spoilers from all fifteen seasons of supernatural.

~~~~~~

Lost: (verb) something was no longer kept, won or held onto.

You could lose a lot of things.

A game.

Your keys.

Your way.

A family member.

But how does one handle losing someone they never met?

Yearning for the softness of a touch they've never felt.

Straining to remember the sound of a voice they've never heard.

Missing a heartbeat that never had the chance to echo against their own.

Dean Winchester was lost for a while, gone. His name turned into a story told over cheap whiskey and quieter grief.

His story now a closed chapter.

Only chapters don't always stay closed.

He's back... confused, wary and just as lost as the life that unfolded without him.

Dean's resurrection isn't a miracle. It isn't random.

It's tied to a life that grew up in his absence.

To someone who learned to fight before she ever learned how to trust.

Someone who carries his blood but none of his answers.

And whatever dragged him back into the light didn't do it for him.

It did it because the fate of the world is tangled up with what he left behind.

See what happens in What Was Left Behind.
