Summary: That door shut hard behind him and now standing on the brink facing the end of the war Sam hears the one thing that could make him stop.
Sam stood before the alter heart pounding with deafening clarity in his ears. The demon blood roared through his veins sending jolts of electricity down every nerve as he easily held Lilith pinned against the rough stone. He felt invincible now that the end was finally within sight. His entire life had been leading to this moment, whether he'd been aware of it or not and no amount of running had pull him away.
In the year before Dean's deal came due Sam had come to realize this was what he wanted. If he couldn't escape then he was going to see this battle through to the end. He was going to make sure they came out on top; he was going to use this curse to save the world.
Sam drew in a shaking breath, unable to slow the racing of his heart. It was as though all sound faded away as he glared down at Lilith. She smiled up at him mockingly through the face of an innocent woman; some poor girl who would never see her family again, never be normal.
'Normal'
That was something Sam could never be.
He stared down at Lilith with cold determination. All he had to do was kill her and the apocalypse would be stopped. He'd do what no one else could, not even Heaven's favored son, Dean. The thought of his brother sent a knife of guilt and anger through him causing his blood to pound all the harder in his ears. He could still hear the hurt in Dean's voice, the disappointment and later the disgust.
Sam tried to use the rush of emotions to refocus himself gripping tightly the demon within the girl and begin shredding Lilith without mercy. He was doing the right thing, this was for the best; it absolutely had to be done. But the doubts crept forward again; Dean's voice pleading with him to see reason.
"SAM!"
The sound of his name pierced through the high that he was drowning in, and Sam stopped dead in his tracks.
"SAMMY!"
The thought of how Dean had found them didn't occur to Sam as he turned surprised towards the door. "Dean?" Vaguely he saw Ruby shout something at him, but he didn't care to hear it. Dean continued to shout his name.
"SAM!"
He listened intently to the sound of Dean's gruff voice. It wasn't at all what he'd expected. His brother's tone was desperate, not angry or disgusted, not at all like he'd heard in the message. Sam felt the demonic blood recede a fraction clearing his hearing as Dean shouted for him through the door, fist pounding against it sharply. Dean was trying to reach him and it surprised Sam just how relieved he was to hear his brother's voice.
Maybe they would do this together.
Lilith's laughter shattered the moment pulling him back into focus, as she sneered up at him. "You turned yourself into a freak, a monster," she laughed in his face, "and now you're not going to bite? I'm sorry but that is honestly adorable."
The roar of blood over took him, 'freak' and 'monster' he'd been one his entire life. But he could at least do one good thing with his life; he could save the world from the apocalypse. With renewed determination Sam crushed Lilith with his mind tearing her out of existence with a fiery light. All he could hear was the pounding of his heart, as the light faded from Lilith's eyes.
It was done.
