Per aspera ad astra - SPN_cinema fic. Part 1/2

Title: Per aspera ad astra
Author: Me!
Movie Prompt: Starman
Pairing: Sam/Jensen
Rating: R
Word Count: ~10800
Summary: An alternative to the last third of Season 3’s Mystery Spot. Months after Dean’s final death in a parking lot in Florida, Sam is on the road hunting the Trickster. The last thing Sam is expecting is a genuine alien encounter, but that is what he gets.

Notes: This spn_cinema story originally landed in my head like the Starman on Earth, in an amorphous but promising form. This is not a straight re-telling of the Starman story with Sam as Jenny and Jensen as the Starman – it’s a SPN interpretation, but hopefully it’s faithful to the spirit of the film, and to SPN!
Per aspera ad astra means ‘through hardship to the stars’.

Acknowledgements: Tons of thanks to jdl71 and dollarformyname for a truly last minute beta job. You guys helped tidy up this mess so much! You are both shining stars. Of course, I added stuff after they did their thing, so all mistakes and suckiness are totally mine.

The report mentioned three things that got Victor’s pulse racing - a weird blue light; an apparent miracle; and last but not least, two male suspects taking off from the scene in a black classic car which might have been a Chevy Impala.
