Summary: After the events of Red Meat (11×17), Sam finds out that Dean lied to him about what he did when he thought Sam was dead. Dean offers the truth in a way that changes them forever. 8.5k words. Explicit.
Sam groans heartily through his nose, squirming in his bed as he tries to find a comfortable position. He hates to admit that Dean is right about his mattress, but the thing is like a brick, pushing rudely up against his tailbone as he tries to sink into it. He can’t lie all the way down, either, because– well. Because he’s in a considerable amount of pain, despite the good stuff they gave him at the hospital. The pain is nothing, though, comparatively, because he’s supposed to be dead. He should be dead, floating aimlessly in the great big Empty, thanks to the gut-shot delivered by Murderous Werewolf number 3, and his ability to aim with deadly accuracy. Instead, that werewolf is dead, and Sam is miraculously, unbelievably alive.
Sam closes his eyes, flashes of Dean’s face imprinted on the back of his eyelids, laughing as he dug the bullet out of his little brother’s spilled guts. Dean had tried to smile and joke through it, tried to keep Sam’s blood pressure from skyrocketing in panic so the red-hot liquid wouldn’t pour out of the wound any faster than it already was, but Sam could see the truth, the fear in Dean’s eyes. The crystal-green was so bright, shining with the horrified tears Dean was holding back, because they both knew how dangerous it was for a bullet to enter where it did. They both knew that it would take a miracle for Sam not to bleed out, right there on that cold floor in the middle of nowhere.
But, well. Dean is a damned miracle in and of himself, so it’s no small wonder Sam walked (crawled, stumbled) away from that place.
Michael looked down at the pathetic creature while his vessel tried to scream out and reach the other one. He only had to expend a fraction of his power–a fraction of a fraction, due to his true vessel–to hold Sam Winchester down. Sam struggled against his invisible bonds, but it was useless.
Inside him, his vessel pounded at him, enraged by the disdain Michael felt for Sam. “What was the point of this little adventure?” Michael asked.
“I know you,” Sam said.
Michael laughed. He gave the mortal a brief taste of his true power–wings of light, rings orbiting like satellites, the bloom of flowers growing from multiple dimensions, and several concepts too complex for the human brain.
It should have made Sam cower. It should have made him wet himself, submitting to madness. At the very least, he should have averted his eyes.
Sam didn’t look away. Inside Michael, his vessel went quiet.
“You don’t know me,” Michael said, tucking his wings away. What he felt was not fear. It couldn’t be. “You cannot hope to know me. Even as I destroy you, you will not know me.”
Sam smiled and cocked his head. His vessel recoiled at the sight. “Look me in the eyes,” Sam said. “I do know you.”
Sam’s words compelled Michael to look, and upon searching Sam’s soul, he felt genuine shock. The creature staring out at him from within this weak, withered human, this pathetic mortal wearing itself thin out of idiocy, was almost as old as he was. Had lived for a millennium.
“How?”
Sam rolled his shoulders, straining against his bonds. “I lived with you and your brother in the furthest pit in hell, where time doesn’t exist. You ripped me apart and pieced me back together more times than I can count. I saw you, Michael. I knew you better than your own brother did. And I am not afraid of you.”
Michael recoiled when Sam stood, shaking off his restraints. No. It was impossible. It was all impossible. “I know every piece of you,” Sam continued. He looked past Michael’s gaze, staring directly at his brother while he spoke to Michael with cold determination. “I know how to destroy you.”
