AN: This here serves as a sneak peek for the sequel to Falling Inside the Black, but I genuinely don't know when I will have the entire plot worked out in my head. And when I don't know exactly where I'm taking the story, well- Falling Inside the Black happens, where I'll update twice in one week, and then not again for three months, and I hate doing that to people. But I'm posting this as a promise to y'all and myself that I'm going to clean up (some of) the plot holes that I created with my last fic. That said, I hope you enjoy this small glimpse into my future story!

"Take it easy, Jack." Castiel said gently.

"I've got this, father." Jack said without even realising what he'd called Castiel, but Castiel had of course noticed, and it warmed his heart to see his boy learning who his true family was. Jack shut his eyes in concentration, and imagined himself being where Castiel was, and when he opened his eyes, Castiel was mere inches from his face.

"I now understand why this makes Dean so uncomfortable." Said Castiel.

"Sorry." Jack said, stepping back.

"Well done, Jack." Castiel praised. "Do you think you could go somewhere else in the bunker?"

Jack nodded, and closed his eyes again.

"Son of a bitch, Jack!" Dean yelled at the nephilim's sudden arrival in his room. "How did you-"

But Jack vanished before Dean could finish yelling at him, and Castiel was laughing when he returned. "You may want to refrain from popping in on Dean unexpectedly, in case you wish to avoid- certain things."

Jack tilted his head in confusion. "What kinds of things?"

"Um…" Castiel quickly became uncomfortable. "I'll explain it to you when you're older."

"But, Castiel-" Jack whined.

"Let's just focus on your training for now. Now, think of somewhere far away, and try to go there. It may be more difficult since you can't picture it vividly, but I believe in you."

Jack nodded and shut his eyes in concentration once more. "Far away." He thought. "Far, far away." It was much to his dismay when he opened his eyes that he was still in his room with Castiel, and he sighed in frustration.

"It's alright, Jack, I didn't expect you to get it right a-"

"Guys?" Came Sam's worried voice from the bunker's main room. "You better come see this!"

Frantic footfalls rushed towards Sam, and soon they were all staring at what looked like a frozen solid lightning bolt.

"Why does this feel so familiar?" Castiel muttered.

"Because we've seen this before." Dean answered. "The night Jack was born this same thing appeared in Kelly's backyard." He stepped towards it, but was stopped by Castiel grabbing his arm.

"And now I recall advising you from touching it last time as well."

"Where did it come from?" Sam asked.

"I-" Jack stuttered. "I think I did this. Castiel was training me, and he was trying to help me fly, but I think instead I- made this."

"Any idea on what it is?" Mary asked.

"Nothing good." Answered Gabriel, and everyone turned to look at him. "That there's a portal to another world."

"What, like, outer space?" Asked Dean.

"Try alternate universe." Gabriel replied. "Risky business, other worlds. No idea what could be on the other- Jack!" Everyone turned back around, but it was too late. Jack had already stepped through.

"Dammit, come on!" Dean ordered, and they all followed through behind him. They all stepped through and found themselves in an unfamiliar set of woods in a world that just felt- darker.

"Jack!" Sam called out.

"Nobody move!" Came a gruff voice from behind everyone. They all turned around to see a man with a scarf hiding his face, but more importantly, he held Jack in front of him with a gun to the kid's head. Of course they were only there for three seconds before running into trouble.

"Okay, take it easy." Dean said as calmly as he could. "We don't want to hurt you, just let the kid go."

"You all step through some magic glowing light, and expect me to trust you. How do I know you ain't angels?"

"Wait," Sam said, starting to think he recognised the voice. "B-Bobby?"

The man stilled, narrowing his eyes, but then he lowered the gun, and Jack darted forward to the safety of his family. The man then pulled down the scarf, and oh God, it was really him. "How the hell do you know my name?"

Oh. That hurt. "Bobby, it's us. Sam and Dean Winchester."

Bobby scowled. "Am I supposed to know who that is?"

"Jack…" Sam breathed out. "Where the hell did you bring us?"

AN: Bet y'all thought I forgot about the alternate universe? Well you were kind of right, because I definitely did for the duration of Falling Inside the Black, but when I did finally remember it, I thought it would be way too much to try to fit into just one fic, so I decided to set up just a little bit of it so you know where the sequel will be headed! It's gonna feel so good to mark complete on this story, and I sincerely hope you have enjoyed it. Thank you all again for your kind reviews!
