Feb. 26th, 2009 06:56 pmooc: next in the series after this.
“The policy of being too cautious is the greatest risk of all.”
-Jawaharlal Nehru
It was in battle that Sam saw Dean again - the first time in almost a year. Sam had been fighting against Lilith's forces, trying to block a seal from being broken. It wasn't a short fight - knife to the gut, demons gone and rushing off before someone notices the bodies - but instead one that lasted days on days, wearing down Sam's forces while Lilith's just kept growing.
That was when the Calvary showed up. The hunters and the angels, over a dozen of them rushing in with weapons high. Sam's army instantly pulled back, not wanting to be caught up in the confusion, gathering around their general and keeping the parameter secure.
Sam was leaning on the shoulder of a warrior, exhausted from little sleep and a lot of fighting. With the break, he was able to just breathe and watch a moment, searching through the cemetery plot for the shape of his brother.
