Spoilers: None. This takes place at the end of season 2, post-death-of-Azazel but is AU from season 1 where Castiel saves Dean, John, and Sam from the wreck. Because of Castiel's aid, Sam never dies and Dean never sells his soul. 
Summary: In October of 2007 Castiel brings a case to Sam and Dean that takes them to Pike Creek, Delaware and in all appearances seems like a case that was never fully solved when they were in town in October of 2000. They settle into the town and their cover roles easily enough, though the hunt itself is puzzling and elusive. However, Sam's edgy and secretive and Dean's not exactly thrilled to be back in the town where Sam first got it in his head to go to Stanford. At least they have the generous help of John's old Marine buddy and closest friend outside of the supernatural world--who Sam seems to have an inexplicable problem with. Dean will find, just as Sam did when he was sixteen, that the supernatural aren't the only horrifying things that stir in the coldest hours just before the dawn.
