Dead Man's Blood
Dean held the letter in his hands, starring at the two initials it was labeled too. Adam and Matt leaned over the seat.
"Think it could be Dad?" asks Adam, "it makes sense J.W. John Winchester?"
"Maybe," says Dean.
"Should we open it?" asks Sam.
"I don't know," replied Dean.
There is a sudden knock on the driver's side window making them jump.
John Winchester looks in the window at them and grins.
"Dad?" asks Matt.
"Scoot over," John tells him, Matt moves the middle closer to Adam.
"Are you okay Dad? Are you hurt?" asks Adam immediately scanning his father over.
"I'm fine, I just heard the news about Elkins and I came here as fast as I could," states John.
"And your son almost dying wasn't important enough for you to come?" Adam snaps.
Dean sighed before turning to give Adam a look. John looks away not answering him.
"Give me the letter,"
"Really-
"Adam I'm fine aren't I?" Dean reminds him handing John the letter.
Adam scoffs and folds his arms flopping back and starring at the window. Dean starred at Sam and then at Adam, wondering which would get into a fight first.

"Matt?" John tapped at his shoulder, "I want to talk to you, Dean I'll meet the rest of you guys at the motel we'll be right behind you,"
Matt gulps, he was afraid of being alone with him. In his rush he missed the step for the truck, John's arm grabs his son's preventing him from pummeling to the ground.
"I gotcha," John pulls Matt onto his feet, "you ok?"
"Fine,"
The first few minutes of their ride was in complete silence. Neither looked at each other, Matt's focus was on the Impala a few cars ahead of them making sure it was still there.
"Matt? I'm sorry for treating you like I did. I'm pretty sure your mom would have kicked my ass if she saw what I was doing with you,"
Matt turned to look at his father, that was the first time he heard John mention his mother. The only woman he usually mentioned was his wife, Sam and Dean's mother. He never could picture his parents being in a loving relationship, he could picture them Kate in her scrubs and John in his leather jacket on two ends of the sofa watching some boring infomercial, not muttering a word to each other. He knew at one point that they must have been close, he wasn't stupid. But he'd never seen them together.
"Matt? Fiona's mom told me how much you helped them…..I can't believe it, while Dean, Adam and I were out hunting a Wendigo you were alone hunting a vengeful ghost all by yourself,"
"Yeah. No big deal just anther case right?"
"No. It was your first case, Matt and you did it all by yourself,"
Matt smiled, he'd never heard his father praise any of them like this before.
"I should have learned ASL a long time ago, Matt I'm sorry,"
"It's okay really,"

All four boys are sleeping on the beds. Sam and Matt on one, because it would be easier to shake both of them awake at the same time. Dean and Adam on the other. John stared at them, they looked so peaceful when they slept. The police scanner beeped and buzzed.
"Dean, Adam up," both stirred almost immediately.
"Hmm," states Dean.
John shook Sam and then Matt's shoulders, both fluttered their eyes open at the same time. It was almost freaky, how much the two were alike.

"I don't see why we couldn't have gone over with him," states Sam.
John was talking to the police, Dean and Sam were standing by the Impala, Matt and Adam sat crossed legged on its hood.
"Don't tell me it's starting again,"
"What?" asks Sam starring at Dean.
John walked over.
"Watcha got?" Adam called out to him.
"It was them alright. It looks like they're heading west. We're gonna have to double back to get around that detour," John tells them.
"How do you know?" Sam questioned.
"Sam….-Dean trails off casting his father an uneasy look.
"I just wanna know if we're going in the right direction that's all," Sam defends himself.
"We are,"
"How do you know?" Adam chimed in.
John starred at his two middle sons, shaking his head just what he needed. He pulled a tooth from his pocket.
"Found this,"
"A vampire fang?" Dean asks.
"Not fangs – teeth. A second set descends when they attack. Any more questions?" John turns to stare at Sam and then Adam in turn, "Alright, let's get out of here. We're losing daylight. Hey, and Dean, why don't you touch up your car before you get rust? I wouldn't have given you the damn thing if I thought you were gonna ruin,"
"Dean does a damn-Adam's words become muffled due to Dean's hand covering his mouth.
Adam pushed Dean's hand out of his mouth.
"You take very good care of that damn car," Adam states.
"I know,"
"Then why do you take his crap?" Dean opens the car door slamming it.
Adam opened the door and climbed into next to Matt.

Sam jumps on the gas and speeds past John's truck. He pulls ahead and then turns the car sideways in the road, forcing John to stop. Sam jumps out of the car. Dean groans.
"Oh crap," he mutters.
Adam and Matt exchange a glance before getting out of the car. Matt didn't need anyone to decipher John and Sam's livid expressions.
"What do we do?" Matt looked up at Adam who shrugged.
Dean stood in the middle of them, Sam and John standing off.
"Sammy, come on, we can Q & A after we kill all the vampires," Dean states.
"Your brother's right. We don't have time for this," John tells him and it seems he's already forgotten to sign.
"Last time we saw you you said it was too dangerous to be together. Now, out of the blue, you need our help. Now, obviously something big is going down and we want to know what!" Sam roars back.
"Get in the car,"
"No."
"Get in the car,"
"And I said no!"
"Alright, you made your point, tough guy. Look, we're all tired, we can talk about this later," Dean pushes Sam away, "come on Sammy I mean it this time,"
Dean and Sam start on their way back to the car. Dean motions for Adam and Matt to follow.
"This is why I left in the first place,"
John walks forward and grabs Sam's collar, knowing full well talking to his deaf son's back would have no affect.
"What did you say?" and he lets go of Sam's collar.
"You heard me,"
"Yeah, you left. Your brother and me – we needed you. You walked away, Sam!" he shoves Sam in the shoulder, "You walked away!"
"Enough!" Dean cries out, "both of you!"
"You were the one who said 'Don't come back.', Dad. You're the one who closed that door, not me! You were just pissed off you couldn't control me anymore!" yells out Sam.
John grabs Sam and Dean gets in between them to break them up. John and Sam both stalk off in other direction to their cars.
"Terrific," Dean tells Adam and Sam.
"And to think me and Dad were bad," Adam signs to Matt.
"The two of you aren't much better,"
A/N: If anyone of you want to know, there is an Alarm clock for Deaf people called Shake-Awake, it's similar to an alarm clock and its placed underneath your mattress, you set a time and quite literally shakes you awake. Similar to a cell phone when it vibrates, I kind of like waking up to vibrates rather than sound…..anyway have a good night
