Fic: Blood Runes - Supernatural/The Death Gate Cycle
Title: Blood Runes
Author(s): zelda_addict
Artist: aragorn
Crossover: The Death Gate Cycle
Word Count: 30,215
Characters/Pairings: Dean, Sam/Ruby, John, Castiel, Azazel, Haplo/Marit, Alfred, various others
Warnings: violence, blood drinking, off-screen nookie--nothing worse than what you'd see in an episode of Supernatural, really
Spoilers: The entire Death Gate Cycle book series and all aired Supernatural are fair game, though since this is set in the Death Gate world, it's heavier on that.
Summary: Patryn Hunters and brothers Sam and Dean were separated when Sam left the Labyrinth to join Lord Xar in the Nexus and Dean chose to remain with their father, fighting the monsters of the Labyrinth. After Xar's defeat and the closing of the Death Gate, the evil dragon-snakes need another way out. Sam's unique bloodline gives him the potential power to open a new way out of the Sartan's prison world, and they hope to use his anger to manipulate him to their cause. The forces of good hope to use his brother to help stop them, but Dean doesn't feel much like cooperating...
Author’s Notes: Thanks to chosenfire28 for hosting the challenge again so that I could participate. I seem to show up late to every really great party... Thanks also to aragorn for the lovely art accompanying this fic and for putting up with my woefully vague descriptions and the terrible dearth of source imagery for The Death Gate Cycle! Last, but certainly not least, thanks to Margaret Weis, Tracy Hickman, and Eric Kripke for creating characters and worlds I love deeply.
The Prologue occurs several years before Chapter 1.
Also, there are a few lines of dialogue that are lifted more or less verbatim from Supernatural. They don't belong to me, but to be fair, even had I not seen the episode from which they come, they would have been essentially the same.
