john Winchester jolted awake in his chair when he heard the scream. he looked at the TV and when he saw he had fallen asleep to sports and not some horror movie he bolted upstairs he heard a tinkling of glass coming from the nursery and ducked inside. what he saw would scar him for years to come the window was broken open with glass in his baby son Sammy's crib he picked him up and cooed at him trying to calm him down he brushed the glass out of his hair then he smelled a cross between burning hair and barbeque and turned around he saw his wife Mary on the ground dead. her white gowns stomach red from the blood of her slashed stomach her throat cut and her nightgown and hair on fire. just then his four year old burst into to the room.
"daddy is something burning?" john kept the four year old facing him but eventually he saw his mother
"MOMMY'S DEAD!"
"yes dean take Sammy and go to the mailbox remember our fire drills? I'll be right there"
"yes daddy" dean took his little brother and ran as fast as his little legs could carry him he had to protect Sammy that was his job.
called the 911 while rushing around grabbing the essentials throwing them into a bag: handfuls of clothes from Sammy's dresser, a Norse story book, diapers and Mr. Cuddles the moose then he moved on to deans room grabbing similar items and his room he grabbed the brand new leather jacket mary had gotten him for his birthday their wedding pictures all the pictures he could find and some clothes for him he grabbed his wallet and keys. he had a moment of calm it was all too surreal and all he could think of was that breast milk is healthier than powder to he cleaned out their supply. Marys job took her away at a moments notice for weeks at a time so they always had a two month supply of it around for when she wasn't there. john broke down clutching the bags in his hands sliding down the fridge and sobbing.
fire fighters eventually pulled him out the fire never reached him but he could never go back in the house they hired people to go in and clean it out and clean it up then they rented it out never to return. the police officers informed him that the mob had most likely killed her but they didn't know why.
