Chapter 14

After making sure Sam wasn't seriously injured and both Dean and Harmone were okay, Bobby sat down in the armchair with a beer. Harmone perched on the armchair and Sam and Dean took the couch.

"You remember my wife Karen."

Dean signed as Bobby talked and both boys nodded. Eventually John came in the living room to hear the story as well.

"You told us she was possessed by a demon and that you had to kill her. That's what started you on the path of being a hunter," Dean said.

Bobby sighed and nodded, "That much was true. The thing was…we tried for so long to have children and we couldn't. We found out later that Karen was infertile."

So what happened?

"Karen had this friend. She discussed the situation with her friend and she agreed to let me impregnate her." Bobby dragged a hand over his face, "She told us that we had to wait until a certain point for it to work. Neither of us understood that what she meant was that we had to wait for her to go into heat. But we agreed and after…after I impregnated her…it only took her a month to start showing. When Karen asked her about it, she told us. She was half human half jaguar."

"I bet that didn't go over well."

Bobby chuckled bitterly and shook his head, "Definitely not. Karen went ballistic. Called her a bunch of things and told her to leave. She said she didn't want a child who was half human half animal. So she left and I never saw her again. After Karen died, I managed to contact her and ask her about the child. We kept in contact for years but then three years ago, I stopped hearing from her."

Harmone sniffed, "A demon."

"A demon?" Bobby asked.

Harmone nodded, "Three years ago a demon came into our home and killed her. I don't know why. I mean I didn't know it was a demon at first. I had done a lot of research and asked around. Someone told me that there was this man named Bobby Singer who would be able to answer any and all of my questions. At first I kept wondering why that name sounded familiar. Until I saw an email from you to her and that's when I realized who you were."

Sam looked at Bobby and Harmone. He still couldn't believe Bobby had a child. He always called Sam and Dean his boys. Bobby smiled at Sam seeming to know what he was thinking.

You're still my boys. This doesn't change that.

Sam blinked. But…

Harmone chuckled. That just means we're like siblings. I mean I already saw Dean like my brother the first time we met.

You mean I didn't turn you on?

Please. You wish.

Sam laughed. John looked on as if he were intruding on a private conversation. He cleared his throat and looked at Dean and Harmone.

"You said Sam saved your life?"

Dean nodded, "Well with Harmone's help, but yeah. If he hadn't recited the exorcism, we'd all still be stuck in there and who knows what those demons would've done."

Harmone shook her head, "I was just the muscle. I mean when we approached Sam was already starting to say the exorcism."

John frowned, "But I thought he doesn't talk."

Dean sighed, "He's deaf dad. That means he can't here. He can still talk, he just doesn't like too. But you really think he's just going to hang there and wait for someone to rescue him? That's not Sammy."

Sam smiled at Dean and Dean chuckled, ruffling his hair. John sat down and frowned.

"These demons are really up to something."

Dean chuckled, "Or maybe they're just being stupid, annoying demons doing what they do best. Wreak havoc on the world."

Bobby nodded, "John could be right. I mean think about it. A demon killed your mother, Harmone's mother, and now they kidnapped Sam."

Sam looked up and tugged on Dean's shirt. Dean frowned, "What Sammy?"

The demon said something to me. He said something about us causing them a lot of trouble and how it's about to end. He wanted me, you and dad, but I don't know why.

"It's okay Sammy," Dean said before translating what Sam said.

"Something tells me that this has to do with the demon that killed your mother," John spoke.

Harmone shook her head and slipped off the chair, "Sam, wanna help me cook dinner and let these boys do their thing?"

Sam nodded and followed Harmone into Bobby's kitchen. After a minute Bobby frowned, "Hey, don't go touching stuff in my kitchen! I got things that aren't food in there!" he yelled, running after them.

John glanced at his oldest and saw Dean watching the others in the kitchen and knew that he wouldn't be getting anything into him. John walked over to his side and watched the scene in the kitchen. No words were spoken between the three but there was plenty of laughter as they cooked and teased each other. Just like a real family.

After a minute Dean sighed, "Sam's a good kid dad. One of these days you're going to see it but it will be too late."

Dean then walked into the kitchen leaving John to ponder over what that meant.
