[[File:Amara_and_dean.jpg|thumb|left|350px|Amara and Dean.]]
They continue to argue about it in [[11.09 O Brother, Where Art Thou?]], when Dean finally agrees to try and find out if it's even theoretically possible to safely talk to Lucifer without opening the cage. When they ask Crowley, he tells them that there might be a way. He captures Rowena and they convince her to help them. Sam stays with Rowena while Dean goes to investigate a massacre at a church. He tells Sam over the phone that he suspects that Amara was behind it. Sam gives Dean updates on the research to find a way to contact Lucifer, and Dean tells Sam not to do anything without him there. As Dean leaves the church, a strange sensation comes over him, and the sounds around him become muffled. He looks around but doesn't see anything, so he goes to a park. Sam calls him and he is about to answer, when the sensation happens again. This time, he turns around to find an adult Amara standing behind him. She touches him on the shoulder, and transports him to a remote wetland. There, she tells him that the things she has been doing has been to get God's attention. She says that she only has a bad reputation because God was afraid that she would make a better creation than his, and that was why she was exiled. Dean asks her what she wants, what her plan is. She replies that she was the beginning, and she will be the end. She will be all that there is. When Dean compares her with God, she says no - he is the Light, and she is the Dark. Dean then tries to stab her, but the knife's blade shatters instead. She tells Dean that she can't be resisted, and moves forward, her hands cradling his face. She opens her mouth as if to suck out his soul, and Dean just watches, once again in a trancelike state. After a few seconds, she either changes her mind, or is unable to consume his soul, and kisses him instead. After the kiss, he pulls back, confused and slightly alarmed. Amara tells him that is the future, that he is the one who set her free, and they are bonded. Dean protests, saying that it was an accident, but Amara insists that it was destiny. He had the Mark of Cain, and she is the original Mark. She tells him that they will be together, that they will become one. A horrified Dean tells her that that is not going to happen. Several angels arrive then, and tell Amara that she must surrender to Heaven. If she resists, every angel will smite her in a single, unified blow. Dean tries to dissuade them, due to the fact that a lot of people would die, but they do not care. Amara kills the angels, and as the skies darken with the impending wrath of the angels, she transports him back to the park, to safety.
In [[11.10 The Devil in the Details]], just after the angels’ smiting attempt, Dean drives back toward the spot where he and Amara had been, to check and see for himself if it had worked. However, when he gets close, he starts to feel ill and is forced to pull over and get out of the car, where he promptly vomits. Castiel finds him, and after a quick examination informs Dean that he has [[smiting sickness]] - he cannot get any closer. If he does, it will only get worse, and he will die. Castiel insists on going alone, as angels are not susceptible to smiting sickness. Dean goes back to the Bunker, but Sam isn’t there. Crowley calls him, and informs him that Sam is in Hell, with Lucifer. He tells Dean to go to a warehouse in Nebraska. Billie lets him inside, and then opens a door to Hell. There, he meets up with Crowley and Rowena. Dean and Crowley put a [[witchcatcher]] around her neck, forcing her to work on the spell to put Lucifer back in the cage. Not long after, Castiel arrives, with a message (“I AM COMING”) carved into his chest by Amara, who survived the smiting. While discussing this, they start to hear the sounds of Lucifer attacking Sam. Dean bolts for the cage, Castiel right behind him. When Lucifer sees them, he snaps his fingers, and they are instantly transported into the cage as well. Castiel lunges at Lucifer with an angel blade as Dean rushes to Sam’s side. The four of them fight until Rowena finally finishes the spell, and Lucifer vanishes in a burst of bright light.
Soon after, in [[11.11 Into the Mystic]], Dean goes back to the Bunker during a case to retrieve gold blades which are needed to kill a [[banshee]]. He is surprised to find Castiel there, going through all the files. Castiel tells Dean he is looking for a spell that can draw Amara out, adding that he had her in his sights and he should have killed her. Dean then admits that he has had two opportunities to try and kill her, but he couldn’t do it. Castiel tells him that he and Amara are connected because of the Mark, but Dean argues that it’s more than that. He admits to feeling a sort of attraction to her. He doesn’t know if he can resist it, and that scares him. Castiel promises Dean that they will figure it out. Later, after they finish the case, Dean mentions to Sam that he thinks there was something a little off about Castiel. Sam doesn’t think it’s anything too serious, but suggests they keep an eye on him.
In [[11.13 Love Hurts]] they head to Ohio to work a case involving a curse that is transmitted by kissing. Once a person is cursed, they are killed by a creature called a [[qareen]], which takes the shape of a person's deepest desire. Dean curses himself to distract the qareen from killing its other victim, and while he and Sam look for the creature’s heart (which is not located in its body), the qareen approaches Dean in the form of Amara. The qareen tells Dean to give in to the love he feels for Amara. She tries to kill him until Sam is finally successful in stabbing its heart. Later, Dean confesses to Sam that the qareen had appeared to him as Amara, and is surprised when Sam isn’t surprised. Sam tells him it isn’t his fault, he never had any choice. Dean then admits that although he wants to kill the Darkness, he can’t. Sam tells Dean that it’s okay.
While researching ways to kill Amara in [[11.14 The Vessel]], they come across what is known as the [[Hand of God]]. It is a piece of the original Ark of the Covenant, touched by God himself. They track it through history to a WWII submarine that went down in 1943, and convince Castiel to time travel with Dean to the submarine to retrieve it. Dean successfully gets on board, but Castiel is unable due to the angel warding on the hull. Dean gets the Hand of God, but right before he gets teleported out and back to 2016, the Hand of God is used by [[Delphine Seydoux]]. When Dean lands back in 2016, he finds out that Castiel has in fact been possessed by Lucifer. When Lucifer takes the Hand of God and realizes that its power has all been used up, he starts to punish them, stopped only by Sam, who uses an [[angel banishing sigil]] to blast him away. Dean vows to hunt Lucifer down and save Cas. They work a few more cases in [[11.15 Beyond the Mat] and [[11.16 Safe House]] when they have no luck finding anything useful that will help them in their fight against Amara, or the search for Lucifer.
In [[11.17 Red Meat]], while hunting werewolves deep in the woods, Sam is shot in the torso. Along with two others, they try to make their way back to where the car is parked, miles away, but Sam’s injury is severe enough that he is slowing them down. They find an empty cabin, and Dean leaves Sam with the two hikers while he looks for sticks to make something to carry Sam back on. When he comes back in, he finds Sam on the floor, all signs indicating that he is dead. Devastated, Dean at first refuses to leave Sam’s side, but ultimately, the pleas of the hikers convince him to help get them to safety. He leaves, promising Sam he’ll be back. The trio find their way to the road, and Dean flags down a Sheriff. He tries to leave and go back to Sam, but the Sheriff won’t let him. Dean punches the sheriff in an attempt to escape, but is tased and brought to the hospital. There, he becomes desperate and decides to talk to a reaper. In order to do so, he downs a handful of barbiturates, overdosing. He collapses on the floor and starts to seize. Dean, in ghost form, watches as the doctors surround his body and attempt to save him. Billie the reaper arrives and refuses to make any deals with him. She tells him that Sam is not dead, but that Dean’s time is up. However, the doctor is able to bring Dean back to life. Soon after, to his great relief, Dean gets a phone call from Sam. Later, Sam asks Dean what he did when he thought he was dead, but Dean avoids answering, saying that he knew he wasn’t dead.
In [[11.18 Hell's Angel]], Crowley calls Dean and tells him that he’s found a Hand of God, and to meet him in St. Louis. Once there, Crowley tells that he possesses the Hand of Joshua, and will give it to them if they expel Lucifer from Castiel’s vessel, and return him to the cage. Dean and Sam tell Crowley they’ll need Rowena to do so, but Crowley tells them that Lucifer snapped her neck. They then argue about whether Lucifer should be dealt with before or after Amara, as he might be useful in defeating her. Crowley quickly gets tired of their arguing and stands firm that he will not give them the Horn of Joshua until Lucifer is back in the cage. Outside, they see the sky is full of lighting and swirling dark clouds. Dean apprehensively says that he thinks it’s Amara. Then, the words “BACK FROM THE DEAD FERGUS” appear on the wall, letting them know Rowena is still alive. They meet up with her in an abandoned church, where they summon Lucifer. When he arrives, they trap him in a ring of holy fire, then use a sigil to bring Castiel out. Dean tries to tell Castiel something, but before he can, Lucifer comes back. When some of the other sigils start failing, Crowley, as a last resort, goes inside Castiel’s vessel to try and talk to Castiel himself. However, it is unsuccessful - Castiel doesn’t want to expel Lucifer. The Holy Fire goes out, and Lucifer is able to get the Horn. He begins to torture Sam and Dean, until Amara comes in. Lucifer uses the Horn against her, but it doesn’t work. Amara is unharmed, and she disappears with him.
In [[11.20 Don't Call Me Shurley]] Sam and Dean become trapped in a police station surrounded by a uncomfortably familiar mysterious fog, which starts to seep in through the building’s vents. Sam accidentally breathes it in and becomes infected. Seeing this, Dean refuses to go on without him, and willingly takes a deep breath of the fog as well. When trying to infect himself doesn’t work, Dean desperately and angrily yells out to God to stop it. Then, Dean notices something glowing in Sam’s pocket. He reaches inside and pulls out the [[samulet]]. Going outside, they see everyone who had died in the street walking around, bewildered and confused, but perfectly fine. They make their way down the street, unsure of what to expect. Then, they see him. They stop, stunned. [[Chuck]] turns around and comes over, saying that they should probably talk. In [[11.21 All in the Family]] Dean refuses, saying that he isn’t going anywhere with him, he doesn’t even know if he is really Chuck. Chuck snaps his fingers and transports them all back to the bunker. [[Kevin Tran]]’s ghost appears from behind Chuck and tells them it’s alright, and to trust Chuck. Chuck sends Kevin’s ghost to Heaven. Dean and Sam watch, flabbergasted, as it finally becomes clear.
Sam is beyond excited to talk to God, who prefers to go by Chuck, but Dean is much more withdrawn, not understanding how Chuck could just have left humanity to deal with everything by itself when he was really needed. Chuck says that he needed to let people find their own way. Being over involved was not helping anyone. Later that night, in the bunker, Dean is on the computer looking for any leads on Amara, when he has a vision of her inside the bunker, telling him that she misses him and that she knows her brother has resurfaced and that he should tell him that Lucifer (and his vessel) aren’t doing so well. The next morning, Sam finds out about another town that experienced the mysterious fog, where thousands of people died, everyone except for one person. They go to the town, where they talk to the survivor, [[Donatello Redfield]], and figure out that he is a prophet. Dean sees another vision of Amara, telling him that she needs to see him. They bring Donatello back to the bunker to see Chuck, then go off to meet Metatron at a bar, who tells them that Chuck has no intention of taking Amara down - he will sacrifice himself. Dean meets Chuck in a park and asks him why he’s giving up. Chuck plans to make a deal with Amara to have himself put in a cage as long as the world is unhurt. He tells Dean that if that doesn’t work, he and Sam will step up - it’s why he saved Dean - Dean is the firewall between the light and the darkness. Dean argues that it’s Chuck who must do it. Back in the Bunker, they agree to let Metatron in on their plan, as his knowledge may be useful. Dean meets up with Amara in a forest, and once again she asks him to join her. However, she quickly realizes that he has betrayed her - this meeting is a diversion to distract her while the others rescue Lucifer. She goes to try and stop them, leaving Dean unharmed.
