One of the best Sam-going-darkside fics I've ever read.
Title : To The End
Author :
esohpe
Summary : The world is ending, Sam has turned, and Dean stops running.
When Dean finally gets tired of running, he stops. It’s a Thursday and outside the sky is blue, the air chill, and he’s sitting on the flimsy lid of a toilet seat in some grungy bathroom in some grungy diner in Wisconsin, staring at spidery red graffiti on the door of the stall that says “I did ur mom.” Four and a half minutes later, when he leaves the diner, doughnuts and chips tucked up under his arm and the last of his change jangling in his back pocket, the sky is still blue, the air still chill, and everything else has changed. He gets into the car he hotwired two states away and drives and drives and drives. He heads for dense forest and a place he knows.
The title says it all. Sam turns darkside and there's only one thing left that can still save him. The brothers' love for each other. Gripping right from the beginning, it terrified me at first, because it seemed that Sam was really evil. That there was no more Sam left inside. I *almost* stopped reading it. Almost. But not quite.
Because of this.
Afterwards, Sam manhandles him back into the car, and uses another piece of rope to loosely tie his wrists and ankles together. Dean can’t bring his hands up much higher than his waist, but it’s a hell of a lot comfier and he’s thankful for small mercies. He’s even more thankful when Sam brings out the contents of the carrier bag: cheese and ham bagels, two bottles of water, a bag of peanut M&Ms. “I figured you’d be hungry,” Sam says, with a shrug, and Dean has no clue what’s going on because peanut M&Ms for fuck’s sake. He stays silent.
Evil!Sam giving Dean peanut M&Ms? I knew then I that could read this story. Yup, right to the very end. And it's brilliant.
It's very dark, yes, but it's full of love, too. And I love Dean's conclusions on why Mary and Jessica just had to die.
And there's a vid to go with the fic as well!
