Salt of the Earth Chapter 20

Dean awoke to the sunlight beaming into his bedroom. His hand went immediately to his torso. It was flat again, the muscle had reappeared and the pain was gone. He was tired and sore, but otherwise, he felt good.  He could breathe again, and his back didn’t hurt anymore.  His legs weren’t swollen, either.  Really?!?  ( Read more... )

Salt of the Earth Chapter 19

"Oh, shit. Oh, shit, oh, shit!" Sam paced the deck and his coffee fell outside the porch and onto the flowers and he didn't even try to pick up the cup.

"Easy, Samantha. They're ten minutes apart, and I'm fine. Okay?"

"How does it feel?"

"Like a bad poop cramp. And it burns like when you lift weights. And my pelvis ( Read more... )

Salt of the Earth Chapter 18

March came and went, and Sam noticed his brother's pace slowing a little. He hadn't started to "waddle," although Sam teased him about it-nothing changed his physiology-his chromosomes were still xy and his pelvis had not widened as a female's does. The babies wouldn't pass through it, so there was no reason. Dean, ( Read more... )

Salt of the Earth Chapter 17

"I feel violated," Dean grumbled. "That was just all sortsa weird."

Sam looked at the carpet. "Yeah. I get it. Sorry."

"Knock it off, you're my brother. I'd die for you, remember? It's all good, just…intrusive." He said the last word like it tasted bitter…

"If it's any consolation, I thought it was kinda 'off', too ( Read more... )

Salt of the Earth Chapter 16

Dean made a valiant effort for the remainder of the morning to stay awake, as did Sam. While it's true that adrenaline can induce much-needed strength and energy in a crisis, when it dissipates and the body begins to settle, it's much like coming off a methamphetamine high-the body reacts to the expended energy and ( Read more... )

Salt of the Earth Chapter 15

A/N So-imagine how cool it was when I was thinking of how to reunite Sam and Dean, coming home from working a midnight on a Sunday morning, and I heard the lyrics of this song. I like the acoustic version the best. Then, it all became clear…

You won't find him trying to chase the devil
For money, fame, for power, or ( Read more... )

Salt of the Earth Chapter 14

As Sam heard the chanting become more audible, a strange haze originated from the fire and filled the field and surrounded the volunteers. It was odd. No one panicked, no one coughed, and no one made an effort to wave it away, although they looked about themselves and each other with their curiosity piqued. The Indian ( Read more... )

Salt of the Earth Chapter 13

A/N: Some of the information used here has actually been part of the history of my own family, although I am not of Native American descent. Any misuse of Kiowan history is just the result of my own ineptitude, ignorance, and creative mind. A BIG THANK YOU to my beta cmsserenity-you are the fuel to my fire, the syrup ( Read more... )

  Salt of the Earth Chapter 12

Sam found himself becoming more and more concerned with Dean's absence as the time passed, and he was damn near panic when the sun began to take its winter  nap at 5pm. Dean wasn't answering his phone, and as he approached others on the farm for anyone who had seen him or Fred, more and more volunteers began to ( Read more... )
