A nightmare to remember - Prologue
Dean was fourteen the first time he killed someone, the end result messy and bloody. The victim was his father's friend; a guy who practically lived in the bar and constantly drank with John. Dean had gone inside the bar to search for his father on the fourth night he was missing and the man followed him out after John had pretty much expelled Dean from the building.
The man was tall and thin like a twig, but had a bruising and strong grip. Unfortunately for him though, Dean's dad had been a marine and had taught Dean everything he knew about weapons and all forms of fighting.
The guy hadn't stood a chance.
Dean watched the puddle of blood grow beneath the man who had tried to touch him, the rugged face unrecognizable. And a smile touched Dean's lips before he turned around and walked away.
Sammy was waiting for him back home.
The first time Sam killed someone, he was twelve years old. It was perfect but bloody. Dean taught him everything he knew about how to turn the knife inside the body, which places he should cut to draw more blood, and when to stop before the person passed out from the pain he inflicted.
Sam did all of that, his chest swelling with pride every time he felt the weight of Dean's approving eyes on his back.
When the cops found their dad's body, they were miles away with nothing but the open road and the world at their feet.
Just Dean and Sam against the world.
