Castiel lay in the hospital bed staring at the bright red cast on his arm, Mary walked in and smiled at him. "Hey kiddo how are you feeling?" she asked .

He smiled up at her wincing at the pain of his busted lip "Good" he said looking at his arm. "It's heavy" he said lifting his arm as high as he could (which wasn't very high)

Mary laughed "well you'll get use to it." she said and he nodded. "you get to leave tomorrow" she said hoping to cheer him up.

Castiel frowned "wheres my mom?" he asked looking up at her like she held the answers to everything.

Mary sighed "Shes in the other room recovering from the crash" she said and sat in the chair next to him. "honey do you... remember what happened before the car crashed?" she asked watching how dark Castiels face got.

He started shaking his head "No I don't want to" he whispered tears filling his eyes.

Mary gabbed his hand "Castiel sweetie you need to tell me what happen if you remember" she pleaded.

Castiel pulled his arm away from her "NO!" he sobbed " I don't wanna!" he cryed.

Mary put a hand on his chest "Okay honey you don't have to okay" she said trying to calm the boy down. "Hey Dean will be here soon okay and you brothers and your father
she said and he stopped crying and looked up at her.

"My dads home" he said fear in his eyes Mary opened her mouth to asked something.

"Cassie!" Lucifer yell running over to the side of the bed, Gabriel behind him. "Hi Mary" he said looking up at her.

Mary smiled "I'll leave you guys alone" she said "Is John here?" she asked.

"In the waiting room" Gabe said, she made her way to the waiting room to see John standing there talking to Zack Castiel's father. Mary smiled at her husband who smiled back, Zack turned to see who it was.

"Hello Mary" Zack greeted as she stood next to her husband. "How is my son doing" he asked.

She smiled "Fine he just has a few bumps and bruises" she explained " and his broken arm should heal just fine there maybe a scar but we won't know for sure until it he..."

"Scar!" he interrupted frowning "this should have never happened in the first place" he mumbled to himself looking towards the floor.

Mary grabbed Johns hand " I am very sorry but there is still the chance that it will heal with no scarring" she said looking puzzled " Would you like to know how your wife is doing?" she asked.

"No!" he stated blankly "I'm sure she will be fine just tell me where my son is" he demanded.

"Down the hall room 212" she said and jumped when he stormed away. "There is something not right with that man." she said then turned to John. "Wheres Dean?" she asked looking around.

John sighed " Poor kid was up all night worried." he said "I just got him to sleep Ellen agreed to watch them while I was gone."

Mary nodded then wrapped her arms around the back of Johns neck and lightly kissed his lips "And who's Ellen?" she asked John smiled.

" Why are you jealous?" he teased.

"Maybe." she smiled.

John laughed "well if you must know she owns the roadhouse down the street from our house." he explained.

"Ooh okay well if she's just a friend I guess I'm okay with it"

"Oh you have to agree on my friends do you" he said squeezing her sides making her squeak with laughter, he kept tickling her.

"J..John AH! S...stop" she gasped for breath "I AH! I g...give I give." John stopped tickling her and laughed holding her by her waist.

"Mary I..." Tom said looking at the two of them. John cleared his throat and let go of his wife.

Mary cleared her throat "Yes Tom?" she said smiling.

"Well I took Mrs. Novak in for a brain scan and fond something the may have cause the crash but I need you to verify the results." he explained.

Mary nodded and kissed her husband goodbye and followed Tom to the results lab. He bought up a picture of the scan, "see anything out of place?" he asked. Mary leaned close to the picture to examine it.

"There" she said and pointed to a dark spot " Blood clot which caused her to have a stroke while drive then causing the crash" she said looking to Tom.

"True" he said in a 'your right but so very wrong' tone.

Mary sighed "alright what did I miss?"

Tom smiled "Okay first the spot is on the right side of the brain so it won't of caused a stroke and it's not a clot"

Mary looked at him "It can't be" she said

"Oh it is "

"a tumor... is it cancerous?"

Tom sighed "unfortunately yes, but we caught it early so we should be able to remove it" he said.

"Alright lets go get her approval to cut her head open shall we" Mary said"

They walked into Sofia's were she was sitting up looking worried. "Mrs. Novak" Tom said and her head snapped around to see him and Mary.

"Mary" she breath "is Castiel okay?" she asked.

Mary smiled "Castiels doing fine we need to talk about you though" she said and Sofia nodded. "Okay this is your doctor Sofia Dr. Tom"

Sofia smiled at him " Mrs. Novak I'm sorry to tell you, but you have a cancerous tumor in the right side of your brain" he said and she place her hand over her mouth muffling her gasp. "Now we caught it early so we will be able to remove it but in order to we will have to do brain surgery and we need you consent" he said

Sofia Looked them both thinking hard about her dissension

Dean was furious at his father for not waking him to go visit Cas and Ellen wouldn't drive him to the hospital, telling him " you need more rest" Dean didn't like Ellen but Jo her daughter was nice he liked her. Dean was still very angry and determined to see Cas , so Dean went to his room and climbed out his window and Carefully climbed down the tree.

Once he got to the side walk he looked both ways and tried to remember which way they went. He remember his mom first saying the directions on how to get there. First go right he remembered then looked both ways again and then at his hands, which way is right? He groaned to himself Cas would know he thought. Dean hated himself ' I'm so dumb' he thought. He was a horrible friend, first he's to tired to see his friend, and now he doesn't know which way to go. He took his best guess and started walking hoping he would get lost.

~o~

John arrived home a five thirty, Ellen was rocking Sam in her arms and Jo was asleep on the Couch "Hey" Ellen John whispered. "Is Dean awake now I could drive him to see Cas now" he said.

"He's in his room" she told him. John smiled and started to climb the stairs, when he got to Deans door he knocked and slowly opened the door.

"Dean I can drive you to see Cas if you'd like" he said and looked around the empty room "Dean" he said walking to the other side of the room. "Dean no more games" he said his heart in his throat. His heart stopped when he saw the window was open.

He raced down stair and fanatically looking around. Finding nothing he combed a trembling hand through his hair. "John?" Ellen said walking toward the worried man "John, John whats wrong?" she asked.

John looked at her tears threatened to fall but he was trying to be strong. He cleared his throat "Deans not in his room" he whispered. Looking up at her "I... I have to go find him" he said "he might not have his coat on he'll catch a cold" he said and ran out the front door starting the car as fast as he could.

~o~

Dean wrapped his arms around himself, he was shaking from the cold. He was so scared he, he was lost and it was dark out now. "Hey kid" came a voice from behind him, Dean knew not to talk to strangers so he kept walking. "Hey I was talking to you" the voice said as a hand twisted Dean around. Dean was meant by a kid about Gabriel's age. "What the hell do you think your doing here you little shit" he said pushing Dean back a few feet, "Snot nose brats don't belong here" he said and smacked him across the face. Dean fell to the ground and looked up at the older kid.

The boy towered over him as Dean tried his hardest to be strong and not cry. "Whats the matter you r mommy not here are you gonna cry" the boy mocked laughing then kicking Dean. Dean cried out in pain unable to take it, the boy leaned down "I will make you sorry you ever crossed my path" he said and Dean felt his stomach flip.

He was then pulled up by his hair and thrown back to the ground, then everything went black.
