HARD-KNOCK LIFE
By: Vanessa Sgroi
Dean hobbled down the stairs of the bunker. Each riser was a conquered victory. Swearing under his breath, he limped across the great room to the kitchen where he all but fell into into a chair with a long groan.
He slowly leaned forward and rested his head on bent arms. "That's it, I'm going on strike!"
Sam shuffled into the kitchen right behind him, laughing cautiously, aware of his own injuries.
"What's so funny?" mumbled Dean.
"Nothing. Just picturing you outside the bunker picketing, carrying a big sign...chanting a slogan."
"Sure. How about 'Hey, hey, ho, ho—this hunting life has gotta go'."
"Catchy. Hey, if I cross the picket line to go hunt, does that make me a scab?" Sam dropped a couple of pain pills in front of Dean and palmed a couple for himself. "Coffee or shower first?"
"Coffee! Lots of coffee. In fact, I might just claim that whole first pot for myself."
"Good. Then I get the first shower."
"Dude, there's like ten different showers in this place."
"Twenty. I counted."
"You counted the showers?!"
"Showered in every one of them too."
"You're weird."
