This chapter really hit at the core for me! And I think Dean really got the difference between him and Sam... Dean has spent his entire life sacrificing (in part because of John and in part because of who he is) so if he can save someone some hurt he will suck it up. He will suffer. It's something Sam has never had to do, it was never his job so one could say he's a little selfish when it comes to self-gratification. Now that I realized it I saw it in your earlier chapters when he needed some time away from Dean to think and Dean ended up cutting himslf. I am not Sam bashing just pointing out something here (Cause I am very much a Winchester girl! lol!Love 'em both to death!) But like I was saying about Dean, he can handle himself suffering but never wants to be the cause of anyone else's pain no matter how minute. I'm so sorry his daughter did not survive and I love this story!

If I was Bobby i'd have knocked John flat on his ass because of his treatment of Dean. I get it, he's pissed but no sleep, no food, that borders on torture and his psychological abuse...Come on! And I'm wondering what is this thing that's watching Dean and the girls in the park and what does it have to do with his current predicament? Off to read the next chapter!

This girl is seriously sick. One thing to torture but complete isolation for a man as active as Dean... Wow this is a specific kind of torture, Usually if you lose one sense you have the others but she has taken all of the three more important ones for comfortable productive life. Enjoying so far!

Hi Mary! I've been reading some of your older histories and I just finished this one a couple a days and I just wanted to say that I really liked it! It made me cry (a lot) witch is always a good indicator that the history is a good one (at least for me). Poor Dean! You're so mean to him! But I forgive you, only because you make it all better in the end! Anyway, gonna go lurk another history! Dany
Author's Response: Hey Dany Thank you. I hope that you've been enjoying them. I like this story, it's one of the better things that I have written and it means a lot that you liked it enough to tell me so. I am very mean to Dean, just wish I could be the one to make it all better! lol. Mary xx

WOW...........I'm not sure what to say for a second, I think I need to gather my thouhgts...........I have to say that I throughly enjoyed reading this story from beginning to end it was very compelling. I started reading a couple chapters at a time, but last night I started chapter 6 and I don't know what happened, I just kept reading and reading, I couldn't tear my eyes away. Before I knew it my poor old laptop died on me because the fan was going nuts and the power cable came out, it was about 12.45am, giving me an extra cliffhanger in the middle of one of your chapters, hehe. I couldn't wit to pick it up again this morning and finish the story. I really wanted to do a review of each chapter but I just couldn't tear myself away from the story, so i thought I will wait til the end. Anway, to say again I loved it, it was well written, and easy to follw. I loved the pacing and the flashbacks adding more depth to the story. And OMG what you did to Dean was so mean, but you did a good job in capturing the boys, and Bobby's personalities. I loved the tender moments between the brothers and Sam looking after Dean, you really captured their feelings and emotions well, my heart really ached for them all as each had to deal with their own issues, the moment Boobby hugged Dean in the bathroom made me well up. And wow Dean having daughter, what a clever twist, made for excellent angst and more meat on his backstory. I enjoyed the light note you left it on, I think that is needed it and good for Bobby getting the girl that made me smile. Phew that was a bit long. I just wanted to say I enjoyed it and I am looking forward to getting stucking with your other stories. Thank-you for your time and effort you put into the writing, I love reading a good story anyday, and because I am not a writer myself I appreciate those who have this special talent so that I can escape and enjoy other worlds for a little while. Thanks and keep up the good work. :o) Glitterbelle (Gemma)
Author's Response: Hi Gemma WOW indeed. Thank you for the awesome review, made me smile. I'm very fond of this story, it's one of the better ones that I've written and I'm really pleased that people like it so much. I love when you read a story like that and you just can't stop and it thrills me that this is one that caught your imagination that way. Funny enough when I fleshed this out originally there was very little back story in it and the idea for Dean's daughter came to me late in the day, I was actually half way through writing when the thought struck me and I almost didn't use it as I don't normally like stories where to guys have kids but it just seemed to fit and it let me add so much more to the tale. I love the touchy feely bits between the brothers (please don't take that the wrong way! lol) The bits when the open up a bit to each other and Dean was in such a bad place in this one it made sense that he would lean on his brother. I love Bobby too and him and Dean always write well together for some reason. I always like to leave it on a high note, resolve things and let the boys have a happy moment after I've beaten the cr*p out of them :)! The reviewers on this site are great and without them it would be a struggle to keep going sometimes so I appreciate all and any support. Hope you enjoy the others you encounter, some of my stories I love and others I'm not sure about but it's all down to the reader, my best ones are probably this, Play Me and After Midnight - my personal favs! Thanks again, Mary xx

So glad that Dean fixed up Mags and Bobby. Had to have a laugh though at the boys' reaction to the mental image.... And so terribly saddened by, but not completely thrown by, Dean deciding that Audrey and Jane's bones had to be salted and burned. He knew that they couldn't stay for too long before becoming angry spirits. And even though it was so hard for him, it was something he had to do. For them. Great story, Mary. Sorry it took me so long to find it again. Jules
Author's Response: Hi Jules What a lovely suprise to find in my inbox, all the alerts for these reviews, starting here just to thank you for taking the time to review as you went, it means a lot. I'm glad you liked this story, it one of my favourite things that I've written. So sad for Dean to have to do the SNB but I kinda left him with no choice, and he always does the right thing by others. I needed a little happy note to end on and Bobby and Mags fitted the bill nicely. Thanks again for all the reviews, off now to reply to all the others!! Cheers Mary xx

Hmmm....did Audrey or Jane possess Mags for just a wee while? Her eyes changed colour. And she's sweet on Bobby! Hope Dean goes through with his plan and gets them together. I like Mags. Wonder what Dean needs help with, and why they need to go for a drive for him to ask Sam. Jules
Author's Response: Hi
Yeah, Jane possessed her for just a moment.
Mags and Bobby will make a lovely couple and Dean will make sure of it!
Dean last thing to do is quite sad but it needs to be done to give closure to the story.
Cheers Mary x

Whoa! Somehow the crossroads demon must have raised Audrey and Jane as well. Great move of Sam's to get the demon to let Dean go. He really can do mightily pissed very well - even fools demons - lol. This confrontation is going to be messy.... Jules
Author's Response: Hi there
Yep, I messed slighty with the lore there as Marion didn't get to seal her deal I let the demon bring them back to help her...albeit a little late.
Sam does pissed off majorly well doesn't he...I love it.
Cheers Mary x

Damned crossroads demons!!! That was a low blow aimed at Sam - bringing up the fact that he ran from the madman but hells' bells, he was just a kid. Hope there isn't going to be any fallout over that little revelation. I think there's going to be enough over the fact that the demon has now grabbed Dean. Jules
Author's Response: Hi there
Xroad demons...tricky suckers and nasty too. Poor Sam but he'll get his payback. Dean always manages to stray too close to the fire doesn't he??
Cheers Mary x

Such a bittersweet memory, Dean meeting his daughter. And such a wrench for him to finally leave, and know that he shouldn't come back, because it would only make things harder. And Sam's 100% right - Dean would make a great dad. Jules
Author's Response: HI
I liked writing Dean in this one, I love vunerable Dean that we don't get to see very often.
Dean would make a great dad.

Poor, broken Dean - and that's why we love him so much. Love Bobby's urging. And can fully understand both boys' points of view on visiting Jane. Oh, and Bobby's crack about the Impala's boot lid was classic. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 03:21 AM · On: Dark Day
So the neckace was Mary's - no wonder Bobby recognised it. Those Winchesters and their damned secrets - secrets will tear them apart. I'm glad that John actually showed Dean the whole message, though. And the fact that he kept a check on Jane was a nice thing to do. Hope Dean's not too hung over in the morning to have that talk. Sam's pretty determined, though. I don't think Dean's state would deter him at this point. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 03:15 AM · On: Discovered In A Graveyard
She killed her own daughter and granddaughter!!!!!!!!!!!! Hurry, Sam! Before it's too late. Sooner or later, Marion's going to run out of things to say or taunt Dean with. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 03:09 AM · On: Hey There
Revelations and a mad woman? Sheesh..... Loved the whole "you killed my arm" line. And Dean waking up to find Sam's head pillowed on his arm. That was a sweet moment. Can understand why Sam wanted to knock Dean out. And why he needed to do that alone. Thankfully it worked, but I have a feeling that somehow the necklace Bobby spotted on Jane's neck will come into play somewhere. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 03:00 AM · On: Death Becomes Them
Oh, that wronged person. Sorry, mind skipped off somewhere else for a moment. Oh, gosh - Jane is Dean's daughter. And Audrey killed them both. Dean is going to blame himself for this as well. And what's Marion planning? Nothing good, that's for sure. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 02:52 AM · On: Reasons To Be Vengeful
Huh? I thought we'd found the wronged party - the girls' crazy mum. Hmm. Yikes - Sam almost ended up the same way as Dean. Thank heavens for Bobby's timely arrival. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 02:46 AM · On: Two Halves Of The Whole
A crossroads deal! Never saw that one coming. So, it's Angela's mum all alone - split into her real self and her revenge self. And that explains why her revenge self can get inside Dean's head. Thank heavens for Dean's determination - otherwise Sam would have been knocked out with the chloroform and both brothers would have been in a bad way. Although....they still might... Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 02:40 AM · On: From The Bottom The Only Way Is Up
Those boys need a break. And I can so see Sam being so angry that the fact of the woman being a human wouldn't stop him from getting revenge over what was done to his brother. Poor Dean - so panicked, reliving every moment of that torture session and unable to do anything about it, only to have the ritual fail. And Sam, hurling at the end of it and almost wishing for the knife, becoming as desperate as Dean in their repeated failure. And I know that both boys, and Bobby, can hear that clock ticking... Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 02:32 AM · On: Down But Not Out...Yet.
He's so damned desperate and frightened that he would resort to anything not to have her coming at him from the dark again. Dean's terror in the car was so heartbreaking. And Sam is going to freak when he finds out what Dean has just attempted. Something tells me this ritual isn't going to do the trick. This woman has thought out her plan very carefully. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 02:26 AM · On: Fear Lurks in the Darkness
Yikes! Just yikes! Thank heavens for Mags' timely arrival, followed by Bobby. And this is all part of an elaborate trap, by the looks of it - designed to get Sam on the hunt and lure him away from Dean. Who are these women? Audrey and her mother? Resurrected Angela's spirit in another body and her mother? Too many questions.... Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 02:19 AM · On: Forgive Me
Oh my gosh!!! I bet it's the woman from the basement of that house - she tracked Sam somehow. This is not going to be pretty.... It has to be connected to the events of that summer somehow. I was toying with the idea that it was even Angela back from the dead, but Dean would have recognised her straight away. Who can it be? And was that tourist stuff a trap for Sam after all? A red herring to throw him off the scent. Heartbreaking, that little document of Dean's that he typed up. Always blaming himself. Damn John for raising that boy with so little self-esteem! Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 02:07 AM · On: Remembrance
Sounds like it would have worn a hole in Dean's hand - and in Sam's too, if they'd tried to get that story out in Morse. This is going to be a bit of a roller coaster ride to get to the bottom of things, I feel. And ouch! Dean missing and peeling his own hands instead of the spuds. Yeouch! I've done that, and I can see - hurts like a bitch, too. Worse than a papercut. Got this you-beaut potato peeler that was supposed to be ergonomically designed to help people with joint pain (which is me), and the stupid blades keep flying off every time I use it. That's when they don't bend and slice your fingers.... Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 01:59 AM · On: Heart
Poor Sammy - what a gruesome find. So, it didn't kill Angela - yet.... Oh, and John - how the hell could you do that to your son! I'm surprised Bobby didn't deck him right then and there. But then, they were on a hunt. Perhaps Bobby was saving it up for later. Or perhaps that's when Bobby took a shot at John like Dean mentioned in Devil's Trap. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 01:52 AM · On: Friends, Family, Finds and Feelings
Oh, gosh...Sam's been spotted. I wonder whether the photo was a deliberate thing though. Surely if this woman knew Dean, she'd know Sam would want to investigate and not just run with his brother as far and as fast as he could. Then again, I could be just super-suspicious because I was on the edge of my seat the whole time Sam was at the house. That was a wonderful observation of Mags' about the boys being lucky they had Bobby. It certainly was a great choice, for them and for him. Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 01/02/09 01:44 AM · On: Something Wicked
Really beginning to sound as if the revenge-driven woman might be Audrey. And it sounds like Angela became the next meal for the Tasra or werewolf. Unless it had both Angela and Sam.... Jules
Author's Response: HI there
It looks like Audrey..but is it???
Wait and see!
