Hallucifer, C2C, 2025’s Thanksgiving
Sam bit his lip as he turned the info over in his head, sitting in the parking lot of a motel, this doesn’t make sense.
“What doesn’t?” At the look, Lucifer shrugged, “What? I can be helpful sometimes.”
“I just…” Sam let out a breath, before turning to half-face the passenger seat, “Why would something that can make itself look like anyone, try to get me to a second location to kill me? Why not try and kill me right there in the bunker? And,” He shifted in his seat, brows creasing, “How’d it even get into the bunker? That thing is warded against stuff we’ve never even heard of! How’d some run-of-the-mill shifter get in?”
“Is that why we’re here?”
Sam nodded, “There might be more waiting for me to come back, I couldn’t risk it.” He brought his hands up, bringing his fingers together before tapping the bottom of his chin, “I can’t believe another holiday- oh shit!” Sam leaned back against the driver’s seat, letting out a loud groan, “I left the stove on!”
“… So?”
“All the food! It’s ruined!” Sam closed his eyes and shook his head against the back of the seat, “Fuck.”
“I’m sure the food’s fine. Your brother said Cas was gonna take care of it.”
“Yeah, but that wasn’t Dean, so the chances he actually called Cas are probably in the negative thousands.”
“Well… why don’t you call him.”
“And why would I do that?”
“Cas, you idiot.” That got the giant to crack an eye open, “He has his angel power back now, right? Get him to smite the shifters then go find your brother.”
Sam opened his mouth to rebuttal, but stopped himself a moment later, shit, that’s actually a good plan. Why didn’t I think of that?
“I mean, technically, you did.”
