"Killing her is the best thing I can do for anyone right now," Sam snapped, nostrils flaring. Why was he trying to protect her? Had Castiel not heard what Ruby had just told him? She was planning on freeing Lucifer! With him! That was entirely what the angel stood against! Was he COMPLETELY out of his mind?! "Especially myself. I'll keep coming back for her if she's still alive, Castiel. I'll keep -" He tried to fight away the thought. Blood. He needed it. He didn't. He did. Fuck. "She has to go," he finally repeated, forcing himself to warily look at the angel in the eyes.

Make things right. How was he supposed to be able to face them all now?

"They don't want me back," Sam muttered, eyes darting back to the building. "This is the only thing I have left. Don't you take it away from me."
