[AU] dark gonna catch me here

Not two seconds after the door closed, Dean started demanding answers. Sam explained pretty much everything, although he glossed over the part where Wynonna'd threatened to shoot him, and for the most part Dean took it pretty well.

Until he made the suggestion of bringing Wynonna - and Peacemaker - to a crossroads and forcing the demon there to give up Dean's contract.

By the time the fight's over, Sam's certain of two things. First, that Dean's not willing to listen to reason because he doesn't want to risk Sam. And second, that he's not going to let his brother go to hell.

He makes sure Dean thinks he's asleep first, and waits until he hears his brother start snoring... then waits another half hour to make sure. Once he's certain Dean's not faking, Sam sneaks out and borrows the Impala.

There's a crossroads three miles north, an isolated one with an abandoned gas station nearby that he can use to get to the bar.

It'll do.

Dean passes it over. "Never known a witch that did."

Wynonna shrugs, folding the photo up and sliding it into her pocket once more. "The Seven first," she says. "I'll figure out the Stone Witch after, if Doc hasn't found a way by then."

"One thing at a time," Sam confirms.

They've all got a lot to do.

She lifts her glass to them. "One thing at a time."

One after the other, the brothers lift theirs in turn, and Dean reaches for the bottle to pour them all a new round.
