That afternoon did not end nearly as well as the previous hours. Sam, reluctantly, continued sitting in Dean's lap as they watching random shows on TV. Neither paid full attention to the show, mainly just taking in each other's presence. From his peripheral vision, Sam watched John moving around; he could almost feel the man's anger from across the room.

John stopped his rapidity, and Sam saw him turn slowly toward them.

"Hey, boys, enough TV. Sitting on your lazy asses won't get us anywhere." Sam let out a small groan, whether his father heard it he was not sure. His father has been looking for Mary, Sam's mother, ever since she died in the fire. She had died when he was young, so young he remembers nothing about her, only getting fragments of her life from pictures. She had died above his crib, killed by the monster that was essentially after Sam.

This was one of the many reasons he believed John hated him. He must have believed Sam had killed her. In reality, when all the dust has settled, it was his fault. The monster was after him, having no need for his mother. However, However, he had done nothing for the monster actually want him. Though he could have done nothing to stop it, he still, to a degree, blames himself for her death.

Sam got off Dean as he trudged toward their father, not once looking him in the eye.

"All right, you two, we're going to try something different today."

Shit.

"Finally, almost everything we do it's the same thing over and over and o-"

"Dean."

"Right."

That shut Dean up quick.

"Okay. I feel you all are old enough to try and take me on-"

"Hell yeah! Ain't that right, Sam, we can take him!"

Sam continued watching. Dean seemed cocky, obviously thinking it would be a a walk in the park to take his father on. John just stood there, a small smile on his face. Evidently, whatever was going through Dean's mind was not going through John's.

"Now, Dean, calm down. You only have it half right." John walked outside, expecting the two Winchesters to follow. They walked a ways until they strode into a broad, expansive field, filled with monkey grass, giving it the look of a meadow.

"Okay, what I meant was, you two will fight me separately." Dean stood there, quietly pondering the restriction of his little brother. It very possibly could be an equal fight. The two would just throw punches until the pass out, probably dropping around the same time. Dean likes to think that he and John are now on the same level when it comes to brawns.

Sammy, however, he wasn't so sure. He was only fourteen, and quite small. He was, without a doubt, the brains of the family. His research ability was stupendous. Though he was very strong for his age, he wasn't sure he could take on his father. Actually, now that he considered it more, his father could knock the shit out of him within minutes. Dean didn't like the idea in the slightest; however, if their father thought it was a good training technique, then it must be very effective.

Even if reluctant, Dean accepted playing by their father's rules. Dean's mind was now set on the game, while Sam's was elsewhere. This was most definitely John's plan to get his head on a platter, stuffing his mouth with a red, juicy apple. He could see where this game ended, and it wasn't a pretty sight.

Oh Jesus.

"So, what do you think? Is it a deal?"

"Hell yeah!" Dean said, pumping his fists in the air, his hyperactive body begging for a fight. John caught a quick glance at Sam as their eyes locked, even if but for a moment. In that moment, Sam saw malice, a furiousness so big he thought it would engulf. He had to have done something to deserve that look, and it scared the shit out of him. He recounted the day's events, not finding anything he particularly screwed up in. He gulped. Not knowing what he did was even worse.

"You know, Dean, I'd like to start out with Sam this time."

He whined. "Oh fine!" Sam watched as Dean deflated, but knew his turn would come eventually, and headed over to his little brother.

"All right, Sam, you know what to do. Size doesn't matter. What for an opening and strike hard." Dean gave Sam a small smile. He could see how Sam could be frightening to go against their father, who is probably Sam's size tripled. He could also see himself having to break up the fight, their dad getting so into the moment he would forget it was his son he was fighting.

Dean gulped, he had to stay mentally prepared, just in case Sammy got himself into a bit of trouble along the way.

Dean watched as Sam stepped forward hesitantly, subconsciously biting on his lower lip. Dean eased him forward, muttering words of encouragement.

Sam's eyes hardened as he locked onto his father's once more, which were looking impossibly scarier than last time. This was his chance. He could finally get back at his father for all the thing's he'd done to him. All the physical abuse had taken its toll on him, his body now seeming weary all the time, which caused him to move slower on hunts than the rest of them, which, in turn, created more punishment for himself. How much longer he could take the hard treatment, he was not sure.

How he would win this fight, he was not too sure either.
