Chapter Thirty
New Year’s Day 2013
“How long did you seriously think you could hide from me Sam? I mean really, you Winchesters are so damn predictable it’s adorable.” The hand reached out towards Sam’s head as Isabel and Liz stared on, screaming for Sam to say no while two men wrapped their hands around their throats. Sam couldn’t tear his eyes off of them. Lucifer frowned, “I know it’s awful, isn’t it? They’re just too beautiful to waste Sam. Let’s just end all the nastiness, shall we? Just say yes and it will all be over, they will be free and all your other friends can go on living their lives.”
Isabel and Liz’s screams were cut off as the hands around their throats squeezed tighter. Sam closed his eyes, “Yes.”
Liz shot up in bed, her arms attacking invisible enemies around her. Dean woke coughing from a punch to the gut. His eyes immediately went to Liz who was sitting up, drawing in air like she was suffocating. “Liz?” She turned wild eyes on him then started crying quietly. “Shit.” He sat up and pulled her to him. “It’s okay.” With her head buried in his neck, he felt her wrap her arms around him and grip like she had no plans of letting go anytime soon. He waited patiently for her breathing to go back to normal then spoke softly. “You need to talk about it. You need to tell me. I can’t help you if you don’t tell me. You’ve been going crazy recently.”
She slid down slowly to rest her cheek on his chest and started talking. “He takes him. Every time.. he takes him and there’s nothing I can do.”
He buried his hand in her hair and massaged her head. “You’re stressing way too much about it. You said yourself you can’t force it. You want another premonition so badly but haven’t gotten any more information so you’ve just been freaking out anytime something resembles the little information you have. It’s getting out of hand.”
“But it’s all I have, it’s the only way I can..”
“You tensing up and becoming the watcher anytime we are having a good time isn’t going to change anything. All you’re doing is stressing yourself and everyone else out. Hell, last night once you realized everyone was laughing and having a great night you freaked and started checking the windows and taking walks outside to check out the perimeter. You somehow thought no one would notice and then you almost got sick because you were worrying that last night would be the night. How can we fight anything when we’re so run down we can’t see straight? You were the one that taught us that. We got this far and I think we’re still one step up, so if that’s the best we’ve got then good. One more middle finger at him. Maybe we can stay under long enough that we simply outrun him so to speak. His vessel will break down at some point and he won’t be able to get another one. Hell, that could’ve happened all ready.”
Liz stayed quiet listening to him rant on with his concern over her. She thought about how Isabel had been holding Sam tighter, making touches last longer. She simply never wanted to let him go anywhere without her recently and Liz couldn’t blame her. She listened to Dean’s concern for her and mourned the fact that Isabel was going through the same thing except her concern, her fear was far worse. They would all lose Sam when Lucifer found him but it would be the hardest on her. Liz knew what that pain felt like and she didn’t want Isabel to have to go through it again but all the premonitions she’s had say that it will happen at some point. Dean’s logic may have sounded great but she felt deep within her that Lucifer probably already took on a few different vessels making his way towards Sam. It was only a matter of time that he would find him and take him. So why was she wasting all this energy on figuring out the when? She needed to figure out how she would get him back. “I guess if anyone could pull that off, it’s the Winchesters.”
He chuckled, “yeah, the Winchesters with the help of fucking aliens. Don’t forget that. Okay half aliens whatever but it’s a pretty important part.”

MARCH 2013
Liz, Dean, Michael, Kyle, Ava, and Zan sat around the dining room table playing poker. At least trying to play poker as they were all messing around. Maria and Serena walked into the room with popcorn on their way into the living room to watch a movie. Maria glanced at the cards in Michael's hand as she strolled through. She smiled then continued towards the doorway to the living room, "what's taking Sam and Isabel so long? They were just supposed to pick up some movies."
Serena glanced at Kyle's cards then whispered into his ear. Michael tapped the table as Dean fixed Serena with a glare, "no cheating!"
Kyle winked at Serena and grinned at the guys, "please, she was just implying that we might take some time to get lost like Isabel and Sam later tonight." He wiggled his brows as Dean and Michael laughed.
Liz and Maria made gagging sounds. "Come on! Kyle we don't need to hear that!" Maria shrieked throwing popcorn at him.
Zan turned to Ava with a mischievous grin. Zan said in a high pitched voice, "but Sam we were supposed to get movies.."
Ava smirked as she put her cards face down on the table and jumped in his lap. Ava deepened her voice, "nobody will even notice we’re gone baby."
Dean frowned, "my brother doesn't talk like some cheap porno woman!"
Michael cleared his throat, "ahem. There are children present."
Everyone's curious gazes turned to Michael who tilted his head towards Liz. Laughter broke out as Liz realized he was gesturing towards her. "What?! YOU'RE THE CHILD, GUERIN!"
Dean's hand snaked under the table to her thigh giving her a squeeze. Her eyes snapped to his and he winked. A grin slipped onto her face as she got off her chair and mounted dean’s lap knocking his cards to the floor. Her lips took his possessively as her hands went into his hair. Once over his shock, his hands slid up her back into her hair as the cat calls went off around the table. Maria quipped, "child nothing. That's how you make a child, chika!"
"Alright alright, we get it! Come on we're playing a serious card game here!!" Kyle banged the table with his fist unable to hide his large grin.
Maria heard the front door swing open and stuck her head into the living room yelling towards the front of the house, "about time guys!!" But when Isabel stumbled through the front door the mirth dropped from Maria's face. "Oh my god."
Those three words changed the air in the dining room immediately. Chairs clattered to the floor as bodies stood abruptly, Liz and Ava awkwardly jumped off their partner’s laps in haste to see what had Maria so shaken. Maria and Serena were the closest to the living room and made it to an ashen Isabel first. They moved her over to the couch as Kyle looked out the front door. "Where's Sam?"
Dean froze at his words and his eyes snapped to Isabel catching her terrified gaze and getting his first good look at her face. Blood dribbled from her forehead and lip and she shook like a leaf even though she looked like she was trying to hold it together as best as she could. Dean saw the apology in her eyes and moved to her slowly, kneeling in front of her he quietly spoke, "what was it?"
Her lips trembled as her head shook side to side slightly and her eyes dropped from his, "not what.." Her blue eyes came up to his filled with tears, "who."
Liz’s back stiffened at her words, knowing immediately that she would confirm her fears. A movement that was missed by everyone fixated on Isabel. Dean’s eyes widened, "Lucifer?"
Isabel’s lip quivered again as she quickly inhaled air, "he didn't have a choice. Lucifer had a demon.. one hand on my head and one hand on my throat. He said if Sam didn't say yes I'd only be the first he'd watch and he wouldn't make it fast. Then he'd move on to the rest of us.. one by one.." A few tears slipped down her cheeks, "he gave this address.. said he'd rip all of us to pieces until Sam said it. I tried my best against the demon but Lucifer was faster, his ability surprised me." Her eyes found Castiel, “how does he still have any power? I don’t understand?”
The room fell into silence as they stood transfixed by Isabel's story. Kyle whispered into Cas’s ear who stared at Isabel in apology. Dean laid a steady hand on Isabel's shaking one bringing her eyes to his. His eyes burned confidence while his insides were screaming. Liz laid a hand on Dean’s shoulder then sat next to Isabel. "It's okay Izzy. We're going to get him back." Her eyes turned to Dean, fierce and determined. "We will get him back." She looked into his eyes and knew he was taking it all on his shoulders. Exactly what he had been telling her not to do for months. He was the one who told her they could beat it, that she had no reason to worry, had gotten her to relax, at least a little. But she wasn’t worrying about staying a step ahead, she may have wondered off into that territory once or twice but recently her focus was set on the one thing she knew they could beat. She knew there was a way to save him and that’s exactly what they were going to do. No matter what.
