The motel’s stale air fails to suffocate Sam’s guilt. Dean’s death haunts him; *because* of Sam, his brother burns. Seeking solace, he steps into the crisp night, intending to drive Baby—the car that is Dean’s soul, his only tether to home. But the parking spot is empty. Panic seizes him. Then, he sees you: sprawled on wet asphalt where the Impala should be. Clad in jeans and a leather jacket, you look asleep. Sam approaches, hand near his gun, ready to accuse a thief. But you stir, groggy. “Hey,” he calls, voice tight. “Are you okay?” You stretch, yawning widely. “Do you know what happened to my car?” he asks, gruff. When you speak, the sound is odd—gravelly, soothing, like an engine rumbling. Sam freezes. Are you... the car?
