There was only pain, as long as she could remember. The kind of pain where she would scream, and scream as the flames engulfed her and nothing made it better. Nothing gave her relief. Pretty soon she knew she would succumb ...she might even break and end up doing the torturing instead...
The first time she saw him in hell, she knew he would break - knew it, but hoped, deep down, that they would not do that. Especially to someone with such pretty green eyes. Green, she thought, which was a little bit like the color of grass. She wished she could remember what that smelled like. But down here, there was only the rotten stink of sulfur and blood. Screaming.
Oh yea gods, that she could get away from that sound! How long had it been? A hundred years? Fifty? Nothing made sense here. And as they cut into her flesh, she got a sense of the name of the man with those green piercing eyes:
Winchester.
The name struck a chord in her heart. She got a feeling of things that weren't hers. Sneakers in the dust. A mud-covered vehicle. Carry on, my wayward son. Cassette tapes and sex with pretty blondes, killing monsters and drinking booze. The family business. Oh, what sweet vengeful silence was in that gaze. In hell's line of suffering, he was right next to her...then soon, without her knowing how many days, years, or endless moments had passed, his knife would cut her flesh and she would scream, and recognition and terror, and sadness would fill his eyes as he tortured her as a demon watched on, giggling at the mercilessness of it all.
Yes they finally broke him. A Winchester. A man who once saw himself as unbreakable. She knew this from his mind, as well.
Then, silence. A ringing in her ears. The beat of wings and a flash of light so bright it burnt her flesh almost as badly as the fires, and she was clinging to an arm, her shackles breaking and demons and jaded human souls shrieking behind her as they were lifted up into the cosmos. No, past rock and stone and sulfur, and the fresh air hit her nostrils like a train. A voice spoke, but not to her. This rescue was not meant for her, but him. The one who broke. The angel spoke, but not now. She saw the future. Of his shadowy wings spreading against a stone and concrete background.
"“I'm the one who gripped you tight and raised you from perdition.”
Before the angel noticed her, the witch (for that is what she was, a being who was once human) rolled over in the grass and quickly scribed a symbol in the dirt with a trembling hand. She looked at her palm, and noticed it had been sliced open from a rock on their way up from hell. Perfect. She slapped her hand down on the symbol and teleported away, not even knowing where she was sending herself. Anywhere at his point. Away from the angel, whose brightness hurt her skin and made her soul crawl.
Rachel didn't know. All she knew was that she was away from the endless suffering, and for the first time in ages, under the shade of many trees dripping wet with rain, she rolled on her back and laughed hoarsely, clutching mud in her hands, screaming with relief and delight.
