If I could, I'd also tag this under NCIS... either way it's heavily focused on Supernatural and Criminal Minds with Tony here sometimes. I don't own anything except whatever creativity is in here. P.S- A note about my other fics is at the bottom.
"Why is it always me?" Tony thought to himself…and it was true. Bad luck seems to follow him everywhere but he supposed him and his cousins couldn't be more alike. After all, bad luck runs in the family. As Tony lay in the hospital bed, he couldn't help but think of his cousins- Dean and Sam Winchester, and Spencer Reid. Reid is definitely unlucky but Dean and Sam are worse off. All of them are missing a parent but at least in Dean's case his mother died naturally whereas Reid's parents are just divorced. Dean and Sam's mother was killed by the Yellow- Eyed- Demon… compared to that, him and Reid were probably lucky. "Then again better me than them…though I suppose this is nothing compared to what's out there." Tony mused.
"You're damn right this is nothing!" A voice yelled from the door.
"How'd you get in here? Better yet, who told you what happened?" Tony asked the man.
"Dude…you should know." The man said once he was next to the bed.
"Right. Forgot. So tell me Dean…you spoken to your brother or are you still ignoring him?" Tony smirked.
"I'm not the one that's doing the ignoring. He's the one that's not picking up," Dean argued rubbing his neck. "And he is the one that walked out on us."
"You of all people should know how much he wanted a normalish life like what me and Spencer have." Tony said trying to reason with him.
"I know but it doesn't mean ignoring ever single demon as if it doesn't exist at all! Even you guys are at least on the look out!"
"You know it's because we have to make sure it's nothing supernatural and we are making sure no innocents were killed because of it."
"Right….so tell me… pneumonic plague? Really?" Dean was trying hard not to laugh but it was becoming harder by the minute.
"Shut up! I thought it was one of my ex looking to get back together."
"Hahahaha….oh man…I know I'm a ladies' man but you? You take it to the next level!" Dean chuckled.
"I'm just that irresistible." Tony grinned but suddenly coughed.
"Take it easy man…you did manage to get the plague. This will definitely go down in history. How long til you're out?"
"Doc says a month but I'll make it happen within a week… tho knowing Gibbs, he'll give me two months off."
"Good. You can help me with the next hung. Have they come by yet?"
"No but I'm sure they will within the next two days. Just go back to my place. God knows I need someone to mother me. I'm just glad Kate's out."
"That is one feisty girl you have."
"You know there's nothing going on."
"Just keep telling yourself that. Just remember. I know you." Dean said as he left, leaving Tony to his thoughts…but after ten minutes when he was sure Dean was really gone and out of hearing distance, Tony yelled into the room. "You guys can come now!" And soon enough Sam came out from the wardrobe and Reid came out from the bathroom.
"Seriously you guys didn't have to hide from Dean."
"Not on speaking terms." Sam stated
"It was the timing. I just happened to go in when he walked in." Reid stated as if it was the most logical thing ever
"Alright but Sam….the silent treatment has gone long enough." Tony sighed. "You guys are family, brothers. In the end you guys are all you'll have left."
"I have you guys!" Sam argued.
"You know that's not the same…" Reid started. "Brothers do have a stronger bond than cousins. Yes you have us and we'll always consider you guys as our brother but you mustn't forget that we are just cousins. We can't replace what you have with Dean. Talk to him before going back to school."
Sam sighed before saying "I'll think about it…" but knowing Sam, he wouldn't consider it.
Weeks turned into several months and life soon returned to normal…ish. Once Tony left the hospital, he took two months off knowing Gibbs would make him…that and the head slap was a reminder of who he was dealing with. At least he was able to go hunting with Dean, albeit he was forced to wait in the car unless Dean really needed the backup. Still it was better than nothing. When he got back to work, life returned to normal, or as normal as it can get considering Kate is no longer there, but no one is talking about that. At least not for awhile anyway…though on this particular day he received a call from Reid. It was quite unusual for him to call Tony considering it was usually Sam who calls him but everyone agreed to keep the calls to a minimum. It would really complicate things if people were to figure out the four of them were family. As Carry on My Wayward Son rang out in the bullpen, Tony ignored his phone but as it kept ringing, Gibbs eventually said, "Well, are you not going to get that?"
"On it boss….Very Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo how may I help you?" Tony asked.
"It's Spencer. Listen, has Dean called you within the last two weeks or so?" Spencer asked getting to business.
"Not at all. Is something wrong?"
"Well…he called me two days ago…" Reid started.
"And…?"
"He sounded worried."
"Tell me everything Spencer Reid." And it was never a good sign when Tony uses someone's full name. Definitely never.
"It's like this…"
Two days ago was like any other day for Reid. Spending time in the bullpen, writing up reports, you know… the usual. A slow day but definitely better than most days but soon enough Reid's phone started playing making others wonder who's phone it belongs to.
"Whose phone is it?" Morgan wondered.
"Mine." Reid said while looking for the phone.
"Pretty boy knows Carry on My Wayward Son? Thought you were a classical kind of guy…" Morgan mused. Sure they were profilers but that doesn't mean they know everything about each other. If they did, then Reid would definitely panic.
"I do enjoy a good rock every now and then…Dr. Spencer Reid speaking." He said when he found his phone.
"I can't find him Spence. He's never been gone for this long. Tried tracking him but I'm coming up empty." Dean was calm but Reid can still detect the…worry in his voice.
"Where are you right now?" He asked.
"Nevada. Kinda getting close to the border you know." Reid sigh since he knew Dean purposely waited to call until he was close to the border.
"Dean…Sam is only weeks away from graduating. Don't do this to him."
"I won't. All I'm doing is asking him to go on one hunt. Just one and when it's all over I'll take him back to school. I'm telling you there's no harm in that."
"Well at least stay in Nevada for a day…in case something new shows up. You should call Tony and let him know."
"Hell no! You know why I called you!" And Dean Winchester hung up before Reid could say anything else.
"Goddamnit!" Reid yelled into the phone then slamming it to his desk.
"Woah! You alright Spence?" JJ asked as she and Morgan exchanged worried looks.
"I'm fine. Just talking to an idiotic family friend…" And went back to work
"It could be something but it could be nothing…" Tony thought as Reid finished the story." For now, I say we do nothing and wait for them to call."
"I suppose…so how are you holding up?"
"I've no idea what you're talking about." But Reid could tell that Tony was closing off. After all, he didn't want to think about Kate. Too soon.
"You know what I'm talking about." And Tony knew that Reid wouldn't let up on the subject either.
"I just wish I had the chance to tell her you know… how 'bout you come over for the weekend. Like the gold old days?" Reid knew Tony was purposely changing subject but can't really fault him for that…and he knew Reid wouldn't push for an answer. It's why everyone confided in him.
"I'll be there first thing in the morning. Bye."
"Later." But as Tony hung up, he couldn't help but be worried. Of course him and Reid couldn't do much, that much was obvious but still, they would do their best for each other and hope everything works out in the end.

If there's any grammatical errors, let me know and I'll fix it. I'm usually good about it but the lack of sleep is making me see things lol. (Love staying up at crazy insane hours!).
.
I love Supernatural and Criminal Minds is a new love. For the first chapter tho, I wanted to focus on Tony more than the others and I feel that after the episode SWAK and Kill Ari would be a good place to start... as I said tho, this fic is more on Supernatural and Criminal Minds but Tony will definitely be here.
On a side note- I've actually have my other fics written out...it's...just...not typed XD I decided writing it out and completing it first would be easier than write half and type. Sorry for the long wait if anyone is still waiting for it. I'll update those before the year is over XD XD gomennasai!
I hope you like this chapter and please leave a review! It lets me know if you guys love or hate this and it is good for motivations!

~~Ciao for now!~~
