Return of the Dragon Slayer.

Chapter Five.

Dean watched as the boy shuffled over and climbed into his mother's lap, the toy dragon held tightly to his chest, as Finn's arms went round him,

"Morning, kiddo. You sleep alright?" she kissed the top of his head.

He nodded, looked over at Dean, cocked his head then turned to his mother "I told you he was coming"

She smiled "Yeah, you did. And I told you, you were smarter than me"

He giggled "I am" he looked at Dean "Don't be angry with my Mamma"

Dean just stared at the boy. His heart was pounding in his chest and he figured that if his legs didn't feel like jello and his ass wasn't glued to the steps, he'd have done what Sam had said you did when in a 'fugue' state…run. Run like the freakin' wind. This was his son, there was no doubt. And he was seriously freaked out. And it was something else Finn had kept from him. He wanted to yell at her, scream at her…shake her until she told him why…why had she done all of this to him? But he didn't want to scare the boy, it wasn't his fault, it was his mothers.

"Don't be angry with my Mamma" he said again.

"Aaah, I'll try" he croaked. He cleared his throat "So, umm…what's your name?"

"Elderick Attacus Icabod Jacobs" he said seriously and held out his hand.

Dean stared at the boy, the poor kid, what had Finn been thinking? He reached out and watched as his hand seemed to move in slow motion towards the boys. He took the small hand in his "Nice to meet you. That's an…umm…interesting name…"

The boy giggled and shook Dean's hand, pumping it up and down dramatically and Dean smiled "Okay, you got me. Now hit me with your real name"

"Caleb"

Dean smiled at him "Phew…and nice to meet you, Caleb Jacobs" he stifled a laugh, it was like a bad rhyme.

Caleb giggled, looked at his mother and she nodded "Caleb Jacobs Winchester"

Dean nodded…Caleb Winchester…Jesus Christ.

Finn could see that Dean was trying to hold it together in front of the boy "You want some breakfast, little man?" he nodded "Come on then" she stood, picking Caleb up with her.

"Are you staying, Dean?" asked Caleb.

"We'll talk about it later, Caleb" said Finn "Let me get you some brekkie okay?" he nodded and she carried him inside, Caleb watching Dean over her shoulder.

He gave the boy a small smile as he disappeared inside and turned to look out over the fields surrounding the cabin. Jesus Christ…a son. He had a son. He shook his head…he didn't want a son…he didn't want any children, let alone one he'd been tricked into fathering. The boy seemed nice enough…he smiled to himself…and a smart ass, what a surprise. But if Finn thought he was gonna hang around and play 'Daddy' she was in for a rude shock. He didn't do that. Dean Winchester was no father.

He didn't look up when he heard the screen-door open but he took the coffee she handed him.

"How old is he?"

"He turned five a few months ago" she sipped her coffee "I know you're pissed at me and you've every right to be but don't take it out on him. He's a good kid"

He finally looked over at her "Does he know who I am?"

She nodded "He's always known you were his father. I've explained to him about why you're …not around. He doesn't blame you…" he glared at her "shit…that came out wrong"

"You knew didn't you? When you took my memories, you knew you were pregnant" she nodded slowly "Fuck me, Finn! What were you thinking?" he laughed "You told me you couldn't get pregnant…" he shook his head "you're quite the liar aren't you?"

"Dean, I didn't lie about that…I…"

"Stop it!" he put his cup down and stood, walking down the steps and pacing in front of her. He stopped and turned to her "I had a right to know! I had a choice! But again you took that away from me! How fucking selfish are you? You steal my memories! You left me to believe I was going fucking crazy! And now I find out you tricked me into getting yourself pregnant and I have a son I had no idea existed!" he laughed again "You're a real piece of work, Finn" he shook his head at her "You've really managed to fuck me over good haven't you?"

The screen door flung open and Caleb came out "Don't talk to my Mamma like that!"

"Caleb, go inside and finish your breakfast" said Finn

"No! He don't talk to you like that!"

She smiled at him "Thank you, and its 'doesn't talk'. Now go back inside while I speak with Dean" he stared at her defiantly "Do as I say, Caleb"

He lifted his eyes to Dean's "You be nice to my Mamma"

"Caleb" said Finn again and he turned and went back inside, slamming the door behind him. Finn looked at Dean "You want to yell at me, Dean, I understand that" she got up and walked down the stairs "But you do it away from Caleb" and he followed her toward the far field.

-----------------

Sam woke to the sound of the screen door slamming. He turned and saw the empty bed and got up slowly. He rubbed his hands down his face, stretched and went to the window, he pulled the curtain back and saw Dean and Finn standing in the adjacent field…well Finn was standing, Dean was pacing in front of her, stopping to yell at her …a lot. Ouch. Understandable but ouch. He breathed in deep as the sweet smell of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the half-open door. He smiled, coffee…awesome.

He walked out of the bedroom and stopped when he saw a child sitting at the table eating cereal. He about shat himself when the boy turned his face to him and smiled.

"Hi" said the boy.

"Aaah, hi…" stammered Sam as he walked slowly towards the kitchen, unable to tear his eyes away from the boys face. He went and poured himself a coffee as the boy watched him while he ate. Sam came back to the table and sat opposite him and looked into his brother's face.

"Dean's outside yelling at my Mamma. She said I have to let him"

"Okay" he sipped his coffee. No wonder Dean was freaking out "I'm Sam"

He smiled "I know. Mamma told me about you"

He nodded "What's your name?"

"Mordecai Elazar Abner Jacobs" he grinned at Sam.

Sam grinned back "Your mother has a wicked sense of humour" he sipped his coffee and smiled "I'll just call you…smart ass"

Caleb giggled "You funny" he spooned more cereal into his mouth, put his spoon down and stuck his little hand out and said through a mouthful of food "Caleb Jacobs Winchester"

Sam shook his nephews hand "Nice to meet you, Caleb Jacobs Winchester" he laughed softly.

"I know, but Mamma said I was called after my Gramps" he smiled "She say…she said …they laugh at him too" he grinned "Caleb Jacobs…funny"

Sam sat forward in his chair and rested his arms on the table "So…"

Caleb looked up at him "You stay here…you need to help my Mamma and help Dean"

"Help them how?"

"Help them go back" he said.

"Go back where?"

"Home"

"The blue fields"

Caleb nodded "Dean has to go and…do stuff. You have to help him"

Sam looked up as the screen door opened and Dean came in, the anger clearly visible on his face. He looked at Caleb and tried to smile, he didn't do a very good job. He turned to Sam "I see you've met my… aaahh…"

"Son? Yeah" Sam looked at Caleb "I like him" and Caleb grinned.

Dean nodded "Alright, pack…we're leaving"

Sam looked at Dean then back at Caleb before turning to Dean again "No"

"What?"

"I said, no, Dean.

Finn came in and smiled at Caleb, then looked at Sam "Morning, Sam"

"Morning, Finn"

He watched as she went into the room he had shared with Dean last night. He looked at Dean "Sit down" Dean shook his head as he stared at Caleb.

Finn came back out carrying two swords. She went and handed them to Dean "Here they are" she turned to Caleb "Caleb?" he shook his head "Caleb, it's not yours. Go and get it, please"

He sighed and hopped out of his chair, pulling the back of his pyjamas up as he went to his room. He came out a few minutes later carrying a shield with a dragon on it. It was almost as big as him, but he bought it over to Dean and handed it to him.

Dean took it "Thanks" Caleb looked at him then kicked him in the shin "Hey!"

"Caleb!"

"My Mamma said you a good man…I believed her" he looked at his mother "You lied to me!" and he ran back to his room, Finn following him and closing the door behind them.

"Oh, well done, dude. Way to alienate your son"

"Shut the fuck up" he looked a the closed door then back to Sam "Pack"

Sam shook his head "Nope. You want to run, go ahead. I'm gonna hang round for a bit. Come back and get me when you start acting like an adult"

"Are you shitting me? You know what she did to us! And now…now…"

"Now you have a son. Suck it up, dude. It was bound to happen sooner or later what with you randomly bang anything in a skirt; and he seems like a nice kid" he grinned "He kicked you, I like him"

"You're an asshole"

Sam looked at Dean's swords and shield "Well you've got what you came for didn't you? And you have all the answers you need haven't you? So hit the dirt track, Dean. Go back to hunting demons and poltergeists…you got some wicked looking swords to do that with now. I mean everything's back to normal now right?"

"How can you not be pissed at her?" asked Dean incredulously.

"I am pissed at her. I'm not pissed at the kid though" he sighed "Whether you like it or not, Dean, that's your son in there" he pointed to the door "It's not his fault Finn lied to you"

The door opened and Caleb came out, he'd changed into jeans and a t-shirt and he walked in front of his mother and went and stood in front of Dean. He looked back at his mother

"Go on"

He looked up at Dean "Mamma said I have to say sorry for kicking you"

"Caleb"

He sighed "Sorry for kicking you…Dean" he turned to his mother "Better?"

"Not really, no"

"Well I'm not sorry!" and he kicked Dean again.

"OW!"

Sam was cracking up, the kid had attitude and then some. If there was any doubt he was Dean's son, it had just been dispelled.

"Caleb!" he turned to his mother and she sighed when she saw the hurt in his eyes "Go outside and feed your animals. We'll speak about this later"

He glared at Dean one more time before going outside.

Sam laughed "Oh, I like him, Finn" he looked at Dean "Wonder where he gets the attitude..."

"It's not freakin' funny! He had boots on that time" and he rubbed at his shin.

"Wait here, Sam" and Finn went back to her room and came out with a sword and shield and passed them to Sam "These are yours. I grabbed them before I left …home"

He stood and took them; there was a Phoenix on the shield and a Phoenix carved into the handle of the sword "Mine?"

She nodded "I can't give you your memories back, Sam and even if I could, I'm not sure you'd want them"

"Well that's not your decision to make, is it?" said Sam.

"You're right, it isn't. And I'm sorry I can't help you with them. If they decide to come back on their own, get in touch" she went to kitchen counter and wrote her number on a piece of paper and gave it to him "I'll help you if I can"

He took the piece of paper "Caleb said I have to stay. He said I need to help you and Dean go back home"

"Can't go back home, Sam. Caleb knows that. I think he just wanted you to…stay around for a bit. I've explained that you need to go look after some things…"

"No" said a voice from the doorway, they turned as Caleb came back in, a wolf at his heels.

"Jesus Christ!" said Sam as he backed away.

"Don't worry, Uncle Sam" he smiled "'Wolf' is a good boy" he patted the wolf's back "Aren't you Wolf?" the dog 'woofed' and went and sat near Finn's feet. Caleb looked at his mother "You tell them, Mamma"

Dean shook his head and turned to Finn "Something else you're hiding? What a surprise"

Caleb looked at Dean "No, you didn't let my Mamma explain to you. You yell too much. She's sorry she didn't tell you about me. But she was 'tecting you and 'tecting me."

"Protecting?" asked Sam.

Caleb nodded. He looked at Dean "Mamma wouldn't tell them who my Daddy was 'cause she know they try and kill me if they know. They think my name Caleb Jacobs, not Caleb Winchester"

Dean crouched in front of the boy "Why would they want to kill you, Caleb?"

"You know"

"I don't"

"Yes, you hear them. They talk to you. They tell you to come help them"

"I don't understand. Who talks to me?"

"The dragons, of course"

"And why would 'they' want to kill you"

"Not the dragons. Them. The bad men"

Dean felt his anger rise "Why? You're just a little boy"

Caleb looked at him, confusion on his face "'Cause I'm your boy and you the 'Dragon Slayer'. You the one that stop the bad men and help the dragons be free.
