Fight Fire With Fire

88. Gone Too Soon

[Absence]

Dean, Natalia and Sam came back to the bunker looking for Mary and Jack, wondering if they were back home.

"Yo, Mom! - Mom! Jack? Mom? Hey, Jack?" Dean called.

"Jack? Jack?" Natalia and Sam said.

"Yo, anybody here?" A door opened and closed.

"Mom? Mom? Jack? Dylan? Nothing," Sam informed.

"They probably just stopped for a bite on the way back. You two know how Mom gets after a hunt."

"Yeah," Natalia agreed. "True."

"Well, hey, here's to another miraculous Sam and Natalia Winchester survival. Got to say, man, sis, if Jack hadn't have healed you two..."

"Yep," Sam and Natalia stated.

"You know, lately, it feels like we'd be up the creek without that kid. I mean, first, he takes care of Michael and then Nick."

"Kind of sounds like you're bummed about it," Sam noted.

"No. "Get out of jail free" card? I'll take that."

"Gonna try Mom?"

"Yeah." Dean tried calling Mary again though the cell phone on the other table was going off as if she left it there with her bag. "Looks like they left in a hurry."

"Try Jack."

Dylan walked up and Natalia asked, "Where's Mom and Jack?"

Dylan shook his head. "I'm not sure. They just left. Twins are sleeping."

"Yeah. Thanks. Okay. All right, thanks," Sam said.

"What did Jody say?" Dean asked.

"She hasn't heard anything."

"You three?"

"Nope. We left voicemails for Donna, Charlie, Bobby," Dylan answered.

"Rowena?"

"Yeah Just got off the phone with her. She says she has a spell that might track them down," Sam informed.

"Okay, well, that's good." Dean's phone was ringing and he answered it, hearing Castiel on the line. "Hey, Cas."

"Azrael and I got yours and Natalia's message. Nick was trying to raise Lucifer?"

"Yeah."

"Where is he now?"

"I don't, uh -- Kid said he took care of him. So, right now, we're just trying to find Jack and Mom."

"Are they together?"

"Yeah."

"A-Alone?"

"Y-Yeah. W-Why do you -- Yes, Cas, they were together, alone. What's he saying? I don't Cas? I, um -- If you have something to tell us, now's the time."

"Azrael and I saw Jack. He -- He -- He did something when we got home with Sam and Dylan. I went to check on him, and Felix was sick."

"Felix? You mean the snake?"

"Yes. Jack used his powers. He killed the snake. I think Jack considered it a mercy. I-I was gonna tell you. She was gonna tell you."

"...but you just wanted to wait until we were already freaked out."

"I'm sorry. I don't think Jack is well, Dean. Dean?"

Dean hung up on Castiel.

"What?" Sam, Dylan and Natalia asked.
