ratherastory
Artist name:naisica
Genre: Gen.
Rating: R
Word count: 73,219
Warnings/Spoilers: Season 3 AU, although there are spoilers through Season 5, up until 5.18 to be on the safe side. AU from that point. Warnings for Show-levels of violence. Illness, angst and time travel (sparing amounts of the latter). Secondary character death. Highlight the text for warnings that will spoil the plot. Major character death. Although I encourage you to give it a try in spite of this: sometimes endings aren't as unhappy as they seem.
Summary: Whatever you do, you will always end up... here.
In May of 2007, Sam Winchester wakes up in his own grave, but digging himself out is the least of his worries. He's plagued by the psychic visions which have returned with renewed intensity and which all but threaten to cripple him. He reunites with Dean, only to find that the Yellow-Eyed Demon is still at large, about to put his world-ending plans into motion. A mysterious figure who know much more than he ought dogs Sam's footsteps, hinting at darker things to come. Soon Sam and Dean find themselves on a path that feels frighteningly familiar: toward Lilith, Lucifer, and the Apocalypse. Unable to shake the certainty that he's seen all of this before, Sam knows that this is his one chance to set things right, or die trying.
