Another good chapter. But why did it take so long? You can't keep us hanging ike that - that's just mean! So dundunduuuunnn, what on earth is wrong with Dean? Loving how you captured Bobby. Making Dean feel like a little boy again. And you are not dragging this on....you're covering all the bases and writing a great story. More! Soon!

Author's Response:

Thank you so much for letting me know it's not droning.  Sorry for taking so long to update, but you know how it is this time of year with out of town guests, graduations and all.  One more week of craziness and maybe I can breathe a little...oh, and let that bomb poor Dean is carrying around with him explode!

Glad you liked Bobby's no-nonsense attitude with Dean.  Just wanted to give him a little spotlight before the proverbial poop hits the fan.

Thanks so much for reading and I'll do my very best to hurt Dean some more really soon!!

Okay we've had enough without Dean! Please make the next chapter about him. I'm dying here!

BTW - I love this story!

Bambers...more! More! More!

I look forward to updated postings on this story almost as much as I do to my Thursday night episodes! You're awesome! But poor Dean. I can't wait to see what you do and how John reacts when he sees Dean call Dominic Father for the first time. Interesting...

If you're doing this right? Yeah right! More, more, more! Poor Dean how painful is it going to be for all to get him back. Papa Winchester to the rescue. Love it! The only thing that would be better is if you could write faster and non-stop!

Yep way too short chapter! Dirty though - killing off both girls. Can't wait for the next chapter....Dean, broken, pissed off wanting his father, not dad. Interesting...I imagine Dominic is going to be coming for his son - Dean. Hmmmm.....MORE MORE MORE!!!

Bambers, you did it again. This is very angsty and awesome. Poor broken boys. I just wish Sammy wasn't afraid of Dean or that he wasn't so injured. You've got to save them. Wonder why Dean isn't throwing a fit being called Dean - his name is now Dominic? Can't wait to see what Father does for his son Dominic. I hope you can update soon and not keep us hanging!

As usual - awesome! Poor babies. Hmmm, what is the Father up to? Is he gonna cause problems for Dean? I want Sammy better! Hurry, hurry, more, more!!!!!!!!!!

Bambers thanks for updating so quickly on this chapter. But so much angst. I'm not sure how you're going to bring our little Sammy outta this one. He's hurt so bad. Did you have to hurt him so bad?

Loved the dialog between Bobby and John. Oh yeah, been waiting for a long time for someone to tell him like it is! Way to go Bobby! Gotta love him.

Back to Dean now?

More! More! More! You really are an awesome writer, Bambers. Keep it up and update soon. We're all hanging.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was an awesome chapter. As always I read them twice through. This is my first read through and I loved it. Lots of angst but there's a light that they're reaching Dean. The interaction between John and Dean was so poignant. I'm left speechless. I do love Bobby. You've written him to the tee. I imagine the next chappy is about Sam and how he's doing. He's got to be getting better because Dean needs him! Seems like he's the only one that will bring Dean home. Bambers you are #1!

Wow - another great (but short) chapter. I like how you're easing them back together. Poor Sammy. Poor Dean. We need a little more Dean whumpage though hmmm...Dominic back in the picture to get his "son" back? Poor John too. He's really trying and it's surprising how you're writing Dean being so honest and open with him about what a crappy dad he is. "Can't we all just get along?" Please update soon. This is my favoriate story of all time - don't know why except you keep me on the edge of my seating wanting more emotion, more Winchester whumpage!

Wow - some surprises in this chappy. Thought you were going to drag out the encounter a bit. Darn! I was looking for lots more Dean (aka Dominic) whumpage! Thought for sure the brainwashing would return when he heard the voice and some of the taunts - darn! Love the angst. Still looking forward to where we go from here!

OMG!!!!!! This story really has been a favorite of mine. Your writing is awesome and the story line is riveting. i always want more! Don't worry about jumping some in the story...just a new "chapter" in the story and where Dean is at. Poor Sammy though. Yes, he should have called. Loved how you wrote a caring, loving John. Write more soon!
