Title: Those Who Wander
Fandom(s): Dark Angel/Supernatural
Characters: Ben (DA), the Benders (SPN)
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: People-hunting. Whumped little Ben. Wee!Ben + Benders should tell you most of what you need to know, I think. Not really a happy ending, but if you've seen Ben's fate in Dark Angel that shouldn't be too shocking. NOT a deathfic, though, for what it's worth.
Timeline/Spoilers: Pre-series for DA, anytime before
The Benders for SPN. Handwaving the timelines; pretend they match up.
Disclaimer: Not mine, not for profit.
Words: ~3,384
Summary: They come barreling through the dead, black trees firing gunshots into the air and whooping like wild apes, gleeful and brazen in a way that says they aren't prey, but obnoxiously overconfident. Amateurs, Ben thinks.
A/N: Written for the 12 Days of Dark Angel challenge @
jam_pony_fic, and fills wish #2M:
What happened pre-show with/to any of the other escapees? Um. Especially Ben. I know it's late so it doesn't count toward the challenge anymore. Still, that's what spawned it. Unbeta'd and written kind of quickly. Feel free to point out mistakes.
( He's in the woods somewhere in the middle of what he thinks might be Minnesota, looking for a suitable place to go under, deep cover, like Zack said: that's an order. )
