The further they walked the worse Matt started to feel. He really did want to find out more about his powers and what was in store for him. And he also wanted to find the other people who had demon blood in them. But was leaving Dean alone while they go out really the right answer?
He didn't think so.
Matt knew he would be so upset if Dean and Sam left him alone, even if it was for a good reason. Matt hated being alone, his downward spiral after his parents died proved that. Matt remembered how Dean had talked about when Sam went away to college. He also remembered how Dean said he'd missed him. But it was more than that, one look into Dean's eyes and Matt could tell that Dean was terrified when Sam was gone. Dean seemed to hate being alone as much as Matt did.
And if Sam left Dean again….well…Matt just assumed that wouldn't be such a great idea. Especially if both of them left.
Sam said that Dean wouldn't let them go out finding answers, that he wouldn't understand and they had to do this alone. Well, that might be true but if Sam really wants answers he can go out alone because Matt's not going.
"Sam, I can't do this."
Sam turned around and looked at Matt with a weird expression. "Why not?" He asked
"I do want to find answers Sam but….I think it's too cruel that we leave Dean here alone." He explained
"But Dean wouldn't understand if we tell him we need to find answers. He wouldn't let us."
"If we explain it to him maybe he will. It's better than leaving him here alone."
An expression came on Sam's face that Matt couldn't quite read but it was gone before he could say anything.
"Listen Sam, Dean just doesn't seem like the type of guy that likes being left alone. I think he would be pretty hurt if we did this. I know I would be and you probably would be too." Matt told Sam
Sam just stared at Matt for a second before he shook his head. "You're right. I don't know what I was thinking. God, I can't take out my problems on Dean even if I don't mean to."
"So are we going to talk to him about this?" Matt asked
"Yeah. Man, why didn't I think of that! Dean hates being alone, he thinks everyone he loves will abandon him and here I am about to do the one thing he fears most." Sam sighed
"It's okay. You still know Dean better than I ever will. Sometimes we know someone so well that we think they won't be upset by our actions. We think that they'll understand why we did what we did. I was that way with my parents. I did things that hurt them thinking that they wouldn't feel upset because they know that I love them." Matt explained to Sam
Sam nodded. "We should go back inside before he wakes up and notices that we're gone."
"Yeah." Matt replied and they started walking back to the motel. Before they walked in the door Sam stopped him.
"Hey Matt…thanks."
Sam woke up the next morning to find Dean and Matt eating something for breakfast at the little motel table.
"Morning sunshine." Dean chuckled and threw the inedible looking food at him.
And just like that, just from hearing Dean's laugh, Sam knew he made the right decision in not leaving last night. All thanks to Matt.
The thing Sam did not expect was for Dean to actually allow him to try to find some answers about his powers. But after some yelling, arguing and explaining Dean seemed to understand. He told Sam that they could take a small break off of hunting for Sam to figure things out. Because after all this was a shocking revelation to Sam and he needed some time to think. Matt was right after all, Dean did understand.
So that was how they ended up in a new motel room with a girl named Ava bursting in, telling Sam that he was in danger. Of course Dean and Matt were out eating at a diner, bringing food back for Sam because he wasn't hungry and really just felt like researching.
The girl ended up being a physic too, just like him and Matt. She had a vision of Sam dieing. Sam tried to explain to her that she was like him, and that they all might be in danger but the girl freaked. He couldn't calm her down.
"You see this?" She pointed to the ring on her finger. "I'm getting married in a week! I don't have time for this!"
Man, where was Dean when you needed him??
"Okay, I don't know about you but that food was disgusting." Matt groaned to Dean.
"Tell me about it. And that's saying something if I didn't like the food." Dean laughed as they stopped at the gas station across from the motel they were staying at.
Dean got out of the car and paid. As he came out of the building he noticed Matt was leaning up against the wall smoking a cigarette.
"Is that only your first one today?" Dean asked happily
"Yeah." Matt told him and took a drag. "I'm down to two or three a day now."
"I've noticed." Dean smiled "That's great; you'll be smoke-free in no time."
Matt chuckled and Dean went to fill up the Impala.
They were about to get into the Impala and drive the few hundred feet to the motel when Dean noticed something.
There was someone on the roof of a building across from the motel. And he had a sniper aimed right at their room.
"Shit! Matt come on!" Dean yelled and took off
The next thing Dean knew he was waking up tied to a chair and gagged. Matt was lying across from him tied up on another chair. He was so worried about Sammy that he barley registered what he was doing. He remembered beating up the person that was about to shoot Sammy. He remembered that the person was Gordon and also being knocked out by Gordon. Matt must not have fared any better.
"Well, well well…." Gordon slowly stepped into the room snickering. He walked up to Dean and took the gag off.
"What the hell do you want!?" Dean growled at the sadistic hunter
"I just can't believe it you know. Matt here is your brother too? So strange." He shook his head
"How do you…"
"I've been following you guys around for a while." He answered simply
"Here for revenge? Because it was me that beat you up last time. Don't take it out on my brothers." Dean spat
"Don't worry Dean. I forgive you for that. We all make mistakes don't we? No, I'm here for your brothers. You see your brothers aren't ordinary people. They've got something evil inside them and they need to be stopped."
"Leave them alone."
"No can do Dean. Sammy will be coming here son to try to save you. And when he does….." Gordon tossed a grenade in his hand. "Poor little Sammy will trip on the wire and….well you know the rest."
"Sammy won't fall for a simple trip wire." Dean laughed
"Yeah. I know that. That's why I have two." He laughed as he watched Dean's face pale. "And for Matt here….well I'm going to have some fun with him before I kill him. You know he watched his parents get beat up right in front of him? Powerless to stop it? Well he's going to watch it happen again, but this time he'll watch his big brother get tortured."
"You sonuva bitch! Leave him alone!" Dean screamed and struggled uselessly against his restraints. Gordon placed the gag back over his mouth.
"Wakey wakey Matt." Gordon said and slapped Matt's face, making him jolt awake.
"What the…." Matt shook his head and then he noticed Gordon. "You…"
Gordon turned back to Dean. "I know a lot about Matt here too. Met up with him at a bar once, right after his parents died. Kid was a wreck, still is. Addicted to cigarettes and anti-depressants." He stopped when he saw the look of shock cross Dean's face. "What? You didn't know about the drugs?"
Gordon then turned to Matt. "That's not very nice. Can't confine in your own brother? That's sad. I wonder how you'll react when I do this…" Gordon spun around again and punched Dean across the jaw, Matt gasping in horror, his eyes wide.
"Let him go! Stop it!" Matt screamed and it was obvious that the kid was terrified. This was his worst fear, watching his family gets mutilated right in front of him.
"I don't think so." Gordon smiled and with that he punched Dean again and again before he slipped on some brass knuckles. "This should really do the trick, shouldn't it Matt?" And Gordon slammed his fist into the side of Dean's face, blood splattering from his mouth and onto the wall.
"Looky here at what I've been warming up for you." Gordon smirked at the both of them and pulled out a metal rod from the fire he had lit in the old fireplace. The end of the rod was glowing from the fire it had been sitting in. Gordon walked up to Dean, lifted up his shirt and touched the rod to his bare skin.
Dean screamed through the gag and Matt freaked out so bad the he toppled over in his chair, still attached to it.
Gordon slowly moved the burning rod up and down Dean's skin. Tears sprung from Dean's eyes and bile came up in his throat. However, it seemed as though Matt was the one getting tortured. He was hyperventilating and his eyes had rolled to the back of his head, his body jerky in wild spasms.
Gordon pulled the rod away and laughed, looking at Dean's bloody and horribly bruised face. "Aww poor kid, that brother of yours. Doesn't help that he doesn't have his drugs with him either. Probably going through withdrawal. And what kind of brother were you not to notice he was addicted to those things?" Gordon stopped when he heard a noise from outside. "And speaking of brothers, here comes your other one right now."
