Here's the next part in Dean and Jess's point of view! Oh and I'd like to correct a mistake I made two chapters ago. I said Dean was 25 when in reality he would actually be 24 right now and Sam would be 20 since this is before their birthdays the year before Sam started his visions. Just wanted to clear that up, I wanted to get their ages right! Anyway, thanks for all the reviews from earlier on today! I know you guys are anxious to know what happened, so here it is! Leave a review to let me know what you think! Thanks so much!


Dean didn't even realize he was being dragged away by Jess into the bathroom. His eyes were locked on the face of his abuser. John's eyes were wild and full of hate and his face was set to kill. Finally he was pulled away from the face as Jess pulled him into the bathroom and locked the door behind them. But there was something wrong with this scene. Where was Sammy?!

"Sammy!" Dean called and leapt for the door, reaching to unlock it. Jess grabbed him before he could even get to his feet and Dean struggled to get out of her grasp.

"Gotta get Sammy!!" Dean cried, arms and legs flailing all over

Jess sighed at how Dean would do anything to protect Sam but hardly cared about his own well being. "Sam's distracting him Dean, so he can stay away from you."

"But he's gonna hurt Sammy! I gotta save him!" Dean cried harder, his whole body wracked with sobs

"Dean, Dean, listen to me okay? You've protected Sam your whole life, now it's Sam's turn to protect you. He's going to be alright Dean. Let him do this for you, he wants to." She soothed him, running a hand through his hair and holding him close. It somehow seemed to work, Dean's breathing evened out but Jess knew that he was still worried.

Now that it was quiet they could both hear Sam and John screaming at each other, and then they both jumped a bit when they heard John scream. Jess held Dean tighter against her, as if willing to shield him from the horrible sounds. She screamed when she heard a loud thud against the door. Please let that be John that got thrown, please.

Neither of them was expecting what came next, a shot rang out and Sam screamed in pain, blood quickly flowing underneath the crack of the door.

Dean felt his world shatter right then.

"SAMMY!!" He screamed and struggled harder to get out of Jess's hold. His whole body was violently thrashing, kicking out against Jess, willing to get to his brother...

Dean screamed his brother's name over and over, but when he heard John laugh and didn't get a response from Sam he felt his world falling to pieces beneath him.

Sammy was dead. His little brother was dead. He died from the thing Dean had tried to protect him from his whole life. Dean had failed his little brother. His reason for living was gone forever. He felt himself vomit, his body sagging, already the will to live was gone.

Jess cried out when she heard the gunshot, but she had heard John speaking after he shot Sam, unlike Dean who had been blocking everything out around him.

"Now move!" She heard John yell

"No." It was Sam's voice, it was pain-filled and she could barley hear it.

John then laughed and Jess heard a hollow thunk. He must have knocked Sam out. Sam wasn't dead. But her relief was quickly swept away when she felt Dean heave and vomit. His body drooped against the floor and he was shivering although he was sweating. And then it hit Jess, Dean thought Sam had died.

"Dean, Sam's not dead! I just heard him talking! Dean!!" She shook his shaking body and got no response. She held his face in her hands and gasped when she saw Dean's eyes. They were devoid of all emotion, staring blankly ahead, seeing nothing. Dean had given up, hid away somewhere in his mind, cut himself away from the rest of the world. His lips were moving quickly but no sound was coming out. Jess could see the word he was forming over and over again, 'Sammy.'

She knew that John was going to break in and try to kill Dean. She was defenseless against a man with a shotgun. They stood no chance unless...

She thought of her plan quickly. It was risky but it was their only hope. She wasn't going to let that man touch her soon to be brother-in-law. A few loud kicks to the door later and John was standing in the doorway fuming.

"Move out of the way and I won't hurt you." She growled at her

Jess put on her best scared helpless girl impression and got to her feet. "O..okay..." She said and started slowly moving towards John and the doorway. But as soon as she got close enough to John she let down the act and her expression changed to anger. John wasn't expecting the change and he didn't have time to react as Jess kneed him in the crotch, his gun dropping as he doubled over in pain. This was exactly what she was hoping for as she swiftly picked up the gun and aimed it at John.

John looked up slowly and his eyes held amusement. "What are you going to do with that pretty little girl? You don't have a clue how to work that thing; you'll blow your own head off!"

Jess paused for a moment, never keeping her eyes off of John. She wanted to kill him so badly, but she knew that Sam and Dean would never want her to commit murder, even if it was their psychopathic father. So she aimed the gun down.

"Funny you say that. Here's a little something no one knows about me. Not even Sam." She cocked the gun to reload it. And smiled as she watched John's face fall in disbelief. "My dad took me deer hunting when I was a kid, I'm an excellent shot."

John started back up quickly, but not quick enough as Jess aimed the gun at his knee and shot, hitting it dead on. John tumbled to the floor and let out a wail of pain.

"That's what you get for breaking Dean's kneecap." She spat at him and finally she heard footsteps rushing down the hall. She sighed with relief when she saw police and ambulance fill the room.

"About time." She panted


The first thing Sam realized when he opened his eyes was that the police and firemen were finally here. But had they gotten here too late?? He spun his head around quickly, causing a flash of pain throughout his head. He groaned.

"Hey there buddy." A paramedic said at his side "Just take it easy. You were shot in the shoulder and received a pretty big knock on the head. But you're going to be alright." The man then looked at his partner "Get this one loaded up into the ambulance, he needs blood, how's the other one?"

"He doesn't seem to be injured, but he's still non-responsive." The other man answered back

Sam's mind went wild. Dean. What was wrong with Dean? Sam turned his head to find another paramedic and Jess huddled around his brother, who was shaking on the floor. He seemed to be having a panic attack.

Jess turned around and caught Sam's horrified expression. "Sam! He thinks you died! We can't get him to stop!"

Dean thought he died?! "Bring him to me." Sam panted between labored breaths.

"No way kiddo, you need a blood transfusion, we'll fix him up." The paramedic at his side said, already trying to move him.

"Didn't you just hear what she said?!" Sam seethed "My brother thinks I'm dead! No one can fix him expect for me! I need to be there for him, to let him know I'm okay."

"But sir..."

"Bring me my brother!!" Sam yelled it this time and the paramedic realized Sam wouldn't be going anywhere unless he knew his brother was okay. A few seconds later a shaking Dean was placed onto Sam's lap.

"Dean, it's me. It's Sammy. I'm okay Dean, I'm not dead. He didn't kill me, I'm alright." Sam told his big brother and used his good arm to hold Dean close to him. "Come back big brother, I need you here with me. Come back Dean, I love you."

The doctors and policemen watched in amazement and Jess smiled as they saw Dean stop shaking and look up at Sam.

"Sammy..." Dean breathed and his hand reached out to touch Sam's face, as if to feel if he was really there and not his imagination.

"I'm right here Dean." Sam smiled and the next thing he knew he was getting crushed by Dean hugging him with all his strength.

"I love you too Sammy" Dean whispered and then realized Sam was bleeding. "You're hurt." He pointed out, looking up at Sam again.

"I'm going to be fine." Sam reassured him

"We need to take your brother to the ambulance now." One of the paramedics spoke up, seeing that Dean was better.

"Okay." Dean said and reluctantly let go of Sam, knowing he needed medical attention

But before they led Sam away on the stretcher they put him on Dean had one more thing to say. He looked at both Sam and Jess. "Thank you." He told them. John hadn't killed him, they had saved him, and it almost seemed unreal.

"No problem Dean." Sam smiled as he was being led away and watched Jess come up and hug Dean tightly. They would have to stay back to answer some questions.

As Sam was being pulled into the ambulance he saw John being pulled into another one. He saw that he had gauze wrapped around his knee. Had Jess done that? Cool. But then Sam looked up into John's now one eye and shook under the gaze he was giving him.

"I'll be back. I'll find away out, you'll see." John seethed at him and then the doors of his ambulance closed. Sam could feel the truth and determination in those words. Maybe John would come back. But Sam knew that if he did, he wouldn't be leaving in an ambulance, he'd be dead by the hands of Sam himself.

Sam tried not to dwell on the fact that John might return to haunt them and the fact that this demon that killed their mother was still out there. Right now all that mattered was John was going to jail and Dean and Jess were safe. He smiled as he realized he had kept his promise to Dean, he hadn't let John lay a finger on him. Dean was alive and safe and now that John was going to be locked up, they could move on with their lives and continue the process of healing Dean.


Yay! I got this chapter up today too! I hope you liked it! Tell me your thoughts and feelings on this chapter! Did you like the way it turned out and how they stopped John? Did you like how I didn't kill Sam? Was Dean's reaction realistic to thinking Sam died? Oh, and just to let you know, this isn't the end of the story. It may seem like it, but it's not. I've still got to heal Dean more and Sam's vision of Jess on the ceiling had yet to happen! And John might not be gone for good... Still much more to write!
