Two months later

Bobby was out of his league right now. The cemetery was supposed to be haunted by the ghost of a young woman who had been murdered inside the gates 30 years ago. However once he stepped through the wrought iron fence he realized that not only was he dealing with Ms. Duvall's angry spirit but half a dozen others as well as a host of other revenants. Way to many to take on himself. The only thing he could do was get the hell out of Dodge and he fought tooth and nail to escape. Relief washed over him as he stumbled into the road, beaten and bloody. A car skidded to a stop and he collapsed on the hood. It was just supposed to be a routine salt and burn - the Winchester luck must have rubbed off on him he thought as he blacked out.

Sam's phone rang at 3 in the night. Never a good thing. The first thing he did was look over to make sure Abby was beside him and breathing. When he saw she was ok he looked at the ID it was Dean.

"What's wrong?"

"A hospital in Ohio just called. Bobby was brought in in serious condition an hour ago."

"Hunting accident?"

"Yeah, he called yesterday saying that there was a salt and burn he was going to Ohio for. A job for a friend. It turned ugly apparently. The EMT went through his cellphone and found me listed as an emergency contact. I'm on my way to Ohio."

"You sure it's legit?" These days they couldn't be too careful. Creatures loved using those they cared about as bait to lure the boys into traps. Monsters had always known that Dean and Sam were each others weakness. Now as they grew up post end-of-the-world, monsters realized that there was new blood to mess with to get the boys attention.

"Positive," Dean's voice was trying to sound calm, Sam knew it was anything but. There was so much strain in it. Bobby was family, the father they desperately needed and he was in trouble.

Dean regained his composure on the phone. "We have a job Sam. We owe Bobby that much."

"Yeah, I agree. I'll meet you there. What's the address?"

After Dean had agreed to let Sam say yes their relationship had changed. Before then it was strained; and had hit rock bottom when Sam left him for Ruby. Dean only had a few hours with seeing his brother as an equal before Sam wasn't Sam anymore. Getting his brother back made Dean aware that they were indeed equals and that was simply how it was now. Sam would make choices that affected them both.

Sam sighed as he told his brother goodbye. They found that they weren't so co-dependent on each other anymore, but they were still there for each other, and definitely there for Bobby. Though for the past two months Sam had stayed with Abby in New York.

As he drove Dean mental checked off all the precautions he had taken before he left Lisa and Ben. Nothing should get through his defenses. Bobby needed him and after all he had done for them he wasn't going to let Bobby be alone.

"What's wrong," Abby asked as she rolled over and wrapped her arms around Sam?

"Bobby's been in an accident in Ohio. Dean's on his way."

She rolled away from him and flicked the lamp on and got out of bed. Sam's eyes followed her as she turned the computer on.

"What are you doing," he asked as he got up? He knew what she was doing, the hunter in her was strong. "Research?" God he loved her!

"I'm not letting you go running out to Ohio on some job that you know nothing about? My baby's got to have it's daddy," she joked.

He had just finished packing and gone downstairs for some coffee when Nessa walked into the kitchen. They were watching her while Allan was taking care of some Colt family business. Nessa was 11 years old going on 30 years old. She sat down at the kitchen table.

"Don't worry Sam. I'll take care of her."

He wanted to laugh but he knew that at 11 Nessa Colt was in training to be just as lethal a hunter as her father and aunt. The child had no other choice in the matter, she was a Colt. Nessa was excited about the baby and wasn't going to let anything hurt her aunt.

Two hours later Sam was on his way to Ohio. Abigail had Nessa to watch and wouldn't be joining them on this hunt, which relieved him. She had just started her second trimester and thought the doctors said everything was fine he still worried. She definitely shouldn't be hunting...too risky.


John Winchester didn't know why he was back on Earth, and why especially he was in New York City until he saw Sam walking down the opposite side of the street. His youngest was alive, but where was Dean? Why was there a little girl holding Sam's hand? Lots of questions remained unanswered but he used what he was best at to figure out a lot of things. He now knew Sam was living with a girl in New York City and that she was a Colt. John also knew that she was carrying his son's child and the possibilities of what that might create bothered him. Was Sam still marked? Was his youngest still chosen to lead a demonic army? Those questions weren't answered yet because he didn't let himself get to close to them. However today he had seen Sam leave and overheard him talking to his brother as he got into the car. Dean was alright thank goodness! However it sounded like Bobby Singer was not doing well. John also heard Sam tell his brother that he was worried leaving Abigail alone. John decided that he would stay in the city and watch out for Sam's girl. After all he had always watched out for Sam, even if Sam didn't know it.


Lisa had tucked Ben into bed and had settled down on the couch with a book. Dean hadn't called in twelve hours and all attempts to get him went to voicemail, until the latest attempt and then that was just static. She read for an hour, putting the book down long enough to try to get Dean. Finally she decided to go to bed. Dean would call her. She had just gotten to bed when her bedroom windows were shattered! Two human-looking figures crashed in with fangs bared!

Her first thought was disbelief that two vampires were in her house! Even knowing what Dean had told her about them it never really dawned on her that vampires were actually real. And these mothers weren't the sparkly kind. The salt line really didn't seem to bother them as the slowly crossed. Hissing they came closer.

They seemed smug in the fact that Dean was out, leaving Lisa and the baby alone. She prayed that Ben was alright.

The two vampires were sent to bring the Bradens back to the nest. There they would be turned. If all went well then final revenge would be visited to Dean Winchester. Their fatal mistake was underestimating Ben Braden Winchester. Dean had taught him how to shoot the Colt Abigail had given them. He had heard the crash coming from his mom's room and quietly slipped through the hallway taking the gun out of the closet. Equally as quietly he came up behind the hissing vamps. His mother was in trouble but she didn't let the vampires know that her son was behind them. She kept on her game face – something she learned from her husband.

Ben aimed and squeezed the trigger taking one down. Upon seeing his brother falling the second vampire whirled around to face Ben. He saw the young boy steadily holding the killing machine and knew the steely determination, the calm in the boy's eyes that said the next shot would take him out. He quickly grabbed his fallen brother and jumped through the broken window into the night.

Lisa ran to her son and hugged him. A minute later however she went into premature labor. Ben had thought nothing of facing down the vampires, now he was terrified and panicking at his mother's situation! He called 911 first, next he called Dean but got voicemail. He tried Sam and voicemail again. He called Abigail and almost cried with relief that she answered.

Ben was a smart child, Abigail quickly realized. The questions he was asking her on the phone were those of a hunter. He had the instinct. He told her he had shot one vampire and the other had left. He asked her if Christo would really work and then recited an exorcism back to her to make sure it was perfect. He was going to keep his mom safe, do what Dean taught him. It made him feel better that Abigail said she was on her way.

After he hung up with her he tried to get Dean. This time his phone was just static, Sam's too. The paramedics were at the house now so Ben just held his mom's hand to the hospital. He hoped his dad was ok, but he had to be the man of the house now. He wouldn't fail his parents.
