Summary: 'Genesis': noun, the origin or coming into being something: the process or mode of origin.



Slipping unnoticed into the police station is easy, finding the 'Closed Cases' file cabinet easier. Dean doesn't bother locking the door, just opens the file and. Black. Ashes, residues, carbonated pieces of furniture. Nothing to distinguish the sofa from his childhood toys, picture after picture of identical waste.

Turning the pages, looking for something, anything until bits of grey-ish white catches his eye. Fractured and worn, and it could just as well be his baseball bat (wood burns down) or a kitchen knife (metal melts).

He leaves the file and turns back, uncaring about the evidence he's leaving behind.

(Bones don't.)

Dad's waiting for him.
