Some more fan-fic. (Should've posted this a while ago)
Title: Burn me away
Rating: T
Pairing/Characters: Dean, Sam
Notes: 264 words. I haven’t seen the Christmas special for season three, but I have read about it. I know Sam gave Dean the amulet, so…Well, that’s all I really need isn’t it?
Disclaimers: I don’t own, I don’t claim to own :D
Summary: Dean’s in hell, clinging onto his humanity for dear life. But it gets a little harder each time.
Time had no meaning in this place.
There was no point in time that he could remember that didn’t have this intolerable pain, this bone shaking terror. He tried to think back to when he was alive, when he was in the world above, and only one thing stood out. A small boy, shaggy-haired and slightly sad looking, handing him a gift.
An amulet.
The amulet that was even now burning, sinking into his skin once again. The metal glowed a feverish red, then a brilliant white, making him scream as it shattered and embedded itself in his skin. The pieces sizzled through him like sand through a sifter, melting through flesh and bone and sanity all in a few moments.
Then time would stop, reverse, mending the pieces together unblemished and whole, before starting all over again.
He was almost sure, almost positive, that the amulet had been given to him out of love. Love from….Someone. Who was getting a little fuzzy, but he was certain it was love.
But if it was, why would this be happening?
What had he done?
His mind had changed, full of fear and confusion. He didn’t understand what he’d done to deserve this. But he did know something. He had to endure, but keep that feeling of confusion. He could not harden himself against the pain. He didn’t know why this was so important, but he knew that to continue being himself, to continue being human, he had to feel alone, lost, senseless.
And so he felt the pieces of metal burn into him like embers.
And he screamed
