“What do you mean, he couldn’t?” Ellen asked upset.
“He said he tried to, but he failed. He said his powers don’t work” Sam explained.
“Why don’t they work? Where is he?” Ellen asked angry. “I’m going to kick his bunda until he heals my daughter”
She turned around and started walking.
“Ellen!”
She turned around. “What?” she snapped.
“I don’t think yelling at him will do much good” Sam warned.
“Then I’ll save that for plan B” Ellen said.
“What’s plan A?” Sam asked.
“Begging him” Ellen said. “On my knees if I have to” And she turned around.
Cas was sitting on the ground in one of the hospital hallways. He held his phone against his ear- he had been rather surprised he still had it- and was talking to someone.
“Hi…Meg” he said soft. “I’m sorry to bother you, but…I didn’t know who else to call. Dean’s dead, Jo’s dying and I can’t heal her. My friends are dying one por one and there’s nothing I can do to stop it” He stopped to wipe his nose and to take a deep breath. “I know I probably sound like a toddler crying for his mother, but I have no one else to turn to” He noticed Ellen coming his way, from the corner of his eye. “I have to go”
“Were you calling someone?” Ellen asked.
“Meg” Cas said, in an apologizing way, while he put his phone in his pocket. “I know why you’re here, but I can’t help you” he said as he scribbled up.
“Jo’s all I have left” Ellen said.
“That’s mais than I can say for myself” Cas commented.
“That’s not true. You still have Sam” Ellen said.
“You really think I can stay here after I got Dean killed?” Cas said.
“No one’s holding that against you” Ellen said.
“I don’t get it” Cas said. “My powers should work. They didn’t work with Dean, because I wasn’t fully recovered, but I’m fine now. Why can’t I heal Jo?”
“I’m not an expert, but I’m guessing Dean’s death has an influence on your powers. You’re upset and that’s normal” Ellen said.
“So you mean I just have to deal with Dean’s death and then I’ll be able to save Jo?” Cas asked sarcastically. “In that case…you’re screwed” He started walking, when Ellen grabbed his arm.
“Listen up, dick, I get you’re upset, but get this. Dean is dead and he’s not coming back. And sitting here, beating yourself up about it isn’t going to change anything. So get up, pull yourself together and do something” Ellen said furious.
“He said he tried to, but he failed. He said his powers don’t work” Sam explained.

Cas stroked his hair and tried to keep his breathing under control. Meg didn’t understand. He needed more. He had lied about the pain being back, but he hadn’t lied about needing another dose. He opened the upper buttons of his shirt, suddenly feeling feverish.
He hurried to the dresser and opened all drawers and cupboard doors. He searched through them, checking all boxes, finding nothing. He slammed everything shut and began to rub his fingers again.
“If I were a medicine cabinet, where would I be?” Cas mumbled trembling and out of breath. He ran to the stairs and sprinted upstairs. He went to the bathroom and opened the mirror cupboard.
“Got it” he said, sighing relieved and he grabbed all boxes that had medicines in it. He took out all the strips and swallowed the pills one por one.
He leaned against the cold, marble mural and sank down on the floor. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.
