Apotropaic (Gen | Dean, Bobby)
This is a sequel to Axis Mundi which is a sequel to Daystar Ascending
Bobby lowered his beer bottle and stared at Dean for a moment before saying,"So, what do you need me to do?"
"I need you to find a tracking spell..." Dean looked down at his fingers. This whole plan made him uncomfortable, but he was completely out of ideas, except for this. Dean swallowed, looked Bobby in the eyes and said "I need you to find my amulet...the one Sam gave me."
"Why? You gonna try to find God again?" Bobby asked.
"Actually, you're not that far off." Dean cleared his throat, "Look, Bobby- Cas is pretty sure Heaven's going to collapse completely from all the infighting if we don't do something. He thinks we can use the amulet to uh...to make a call, so to speak."
"Uh-huh." Bobby stood up, "Well, ok then." He walked towards the fireplace and opened the small panel under the mantle where he kept his journal. He walked back over to Dean, and put an envelope on the desk, in front of Dean "Dont' need a tracking spell."
Dean opened the envelope and let the familiar weight of the horned amulet fall into his hand. "How did you-"
"Sam gave it to me, right before we went to find Lucifer. He said you didn't want it anymore, but maybe you'd need it again some day." Bobby took a swig of his beer, "Guess he was right."
"Bobby, I uh...thanks." Dean paused and slipped the worn cord over his head. "I don't know how this is all gonna end, but it- it looks pretty bad right now. All these angels fighting each other- I don't think they even know why they're fighting anymore, half the time...anyway Cas and I are gonna try this one last thing. If I don't make it back, can you-"
"Dean, where's Sam, in all of this? I don't get it. He was helping you, right? I mean, no matter what he can do now, he's still your brother."
Dean stood up, "Sam is complicated."
