who: Dean and Sam Winchester what: Sam got his soul back and he's finally waking up when: Tuesday, Nov 3 where: The Bunker rating: probably low, except for language?
When he woke up, it wasn't the normal yawning, bleary-eyed, stretching of limbs that hadn't been really moved in a long time. When Sam woke up he blinked at the lights around him for a few seconds before the memories of his last few days hit him and he jumped to his feet ready to attack whatever or whoever had captured him.

It felt more and more like a place he knew, somewhere that maybe in his dreams he had been with Dean.
"Dean?" he said to an empty hallway he was in, not too loudly. Seeing him had to be just a dream. The last time he saw him... Sam knew that was going to be the last time he saw him. Hell didn't seem like it had taken though, and maybe -
