A/N 1: Sorry I'm late with this one. I haven't been able to access the internet all weekend.

As always, thank you so much to everyone who has reviewed my previous drabbles. They always make my day and considering all the drama in my life right now that's wearing me down, it's so uplifting to see such kind comments.

Again, I hope that even though these drabbles form one story, I hope each 100 word chapter can be a story in of itself.

A/N 2: Has anyone ever set out to write something, only to find that the story has developed a mind of it's own and took off in a direction you didn't expect? Well, that's what happened in this one. What started as a simple hurt Dean and protective/badass Sam story, (because I can't resist - I love my Dean bloody and a protective Sam is, dare I say it, downright sexy) turned into a tag for "Sex and Violence". I had no intention of writing a tag to that episode at all, but theses drabbles had other ideas so I guess this is my warning that there's mild spoilers ahead.

Also, I realize that episode has sparked a controversy amongst the fans and there are "Sam versus Dean" debates all over the place, but keep in mind that I simply adore both brothers and I will not take sides even though this fic may or may not say otherwise.

Disclaimer: "Supernatural" isn't mine, but a girl can dream, can't she?


Ambushed

Dean's not asking for trouble, but when he leaves the bar, winnings in hand, he's unexpectedly face to face with a group of sore losers with a grudge.

"You cheated," the biggest guy hisses. "We want our money back."

Suddenly ambushed, Dean puts up a good fight, knocking two of them out before someone swiftly plunges a switchblade into his gut. Startled, he doubles over in pain and they beat him while he's down, showing no mercy.

Defeated, bloodied and alone Dean needs Sam's help, but he's not there and that's what hurts the most.

Sam's right, I am weak.
