"Back in 1835, when Halley's Comet was overhead, same night those men died at the Alamo, they say Samuel Colt made a gun. A special gun. He made it for a hunter. A man like us, only on horseback. Story goes, he made thirteen bullets. This hunter used the gun a half dozen times before he disappeared, the gun along with him. They say... they say this gun can kill anything."
It has been four months since that very same gun was used to open the Hellgate, unleashing hell on Earth. Demons were freed, able to roam the world disguised as humans; hunting down each Hunter as they saw fit. With the death of the Yellow Eyed Demon, they believed it was over.
But it had only begun.
A year ago, Dean Winchester made a deal with the devil; something no hunter should ever be forced to do. He sold his soul to bring back his brother. With a year to live, Sam was running out of options. He could kill the Crossroads demon but then he'd drop dead according to Dean. He could use a number of rituals but the consequences would all be the same. He'd be dead before he finished.

That had left him only two options.
He could have followed in both the footsteps of his brother and his father and sold his soul to save Dean. Or, he could have waited till the year was up before following Dean into hell and drag him back out killing anyone who got in the way.
Sam chose the latter. He followed Dean into hell, staying sane only thanks to the demon blood that ran through his veins. With the help of the spirit of his hell bound father, he dragged Dean back to the world above where he belonged. But the price was more than anyone imagined.
Sam Winchester lost his humanity; giving in completely to his demon side which had manifested during his time in hell.
Dean, angst-ridden by what his brother had lost because of him, seeks out the aid of old friends. In the meantime, he is found by a blonde demon who claims she wants to help Sam. But what does Ruby have to do with Sam’s humanity and the new evil? How does she know his brother?

Gordon Walker, having managed to make enemies of nearly all allies of the Winchesters and the other hunters, is on a killing spree. His determination to rid the world of these 'soldiers' is surpassed only for his obsession with seeing Sam dead. He knows what the yellow eyed demon said to Dean that night almost four months ago when all hell broke loose. There isn't a hunter in America who hasn't heard the story or how Sam clawed his way back from hell with his brothers help.
"Are you sure what you brought back is one hundred percent... pure... Sam?"
So maybe he's not 100% human but at the end of the day, he's still Sam. Rumour's are he's working with a demon and that's good enough for Gordon and his band of renegade hunters. Bella Talbot, esteemed thief, is now determined to get her hands on the Impala. One of her customers wants it and is willing to pay a hefty sum of money but the one thing standing between her and the car isn't the Winchester's as she'd have thought.
No, it's her newest enemy.
Ruby.
With the hunters now squabbling amongst themselves, the demons have full run of the cities. They could be anyone. Your neighbour, your teacher...hell even one of your parents.
So which side are you on? The Winchester's? Gordon's? Are you even human?
How far are you willing to go to win this war? How much will you sacrifice to stay out of hell?
It doesn't matter...either way; we're all in hell now.
"The war has begun.
And we're all smack bang in the middle of it."
