Dean had been walking for what felt like forever. His feet actually ached and his clothing was torn in various places from brambles, errant tree branches and who knew what else. He wasn't sure when he'd started walking but his eyes were slowly becoming accustomed to the light creeping across the treetops above him. It was still somewhat dark down there between the dense trees but he could see something ahead of him. A great, gleaming circle rising up into the air through the foliage.

Frowning, Dean ran a hand through his hair and a few dried and rustling leaves fluttered to the ground around him. He was all but trudging, dragging his feet at this point. It occurred to him with sudden clarity that he had no idea where he was or why he was there. He felt like he was trying to pull himself out of a long and sticky sleep that wanted to keep him buried in some fog of numbness. Something about that wasn't right and he knew it but his head was fuzzy. So damned fuzzy. He became aware of the fact that his stomach felt nauseated the further he slid forward on lazy feet. Perhaps whatever was up ahead had water somewhere inside. Or maybe there were people.

No. Not maybe. Somehow he knew there would be people somewhere. He didn't know how but that seemed stamped as a fact directly on his sluggish brain. He groaned as he stepped from the edge of the forest into a clearing filled with colorful booths and sunlight. The sun seemed to burn into his mind and he closed his eyes, rubbing them. "What the hell is going on?"

Dean watched her eyes go slightly wide as something dawned on her. Or at least that's what it seemed to be happening. She apparently knew the Doctor and he laughed at her description of the man. "I wouldn't say vomitously but he was something else, that's for sure. I remember him real well but me? Not so much. I guess I could be Dean but I'm not sure."

With a grunt he scratched his bicep, this time a lot less absently than he had been doing before. Fumbling with the sleeve of his shirt, he tried to lift it above the place that was agitating him but was unsuccessful partly because the material was so tight against his muscle and partly because she had come to kneel down beside him and her voice was piercing his ear drums.

He blinked several times as she spoke and leaned away from her. "Sorry," he apologized, still struggling with his sleeve. "My head is full of wool and I'm still kinda dizzy. I don't remember much at the moment other than waking up with the Doctor in the woods and trying to stop him from running headfirst into danger. That guy is seriously either a head case or a very brilliant man. Who are you, by the way? Should I have a metal rod to defend myself against you?"
