Chapter 20

"Monsters?"

Judy whispered to her cousin. The seven and twelve year old were hunkered in her bedroom listening to John and her father talking to each other. John Winchester had shown up late at night when the girls had been sleeping, but due to the arguing both of them had awoken.

Nikki placed her finger to Judy's lips making her keep quiet as they listened.

John was going on about some type of monster that was apparently within their area and he was hunting. A Wendigo. They were apparently popular around the small town country area where they lived. And Judy's house was one of John's stops on his hunt.

"My wife can watch the kids. My niece is spending the night, but my wife can handle the three by herself."

They heard Judy's father mention. The two just looked at each other. They didn't know what was going on, but they knew something was up and it made them curious. Nikki quickly ushered the both of them back to bed when she heard the heavy boots of both men.

Diving to the floor as Judy shot to her bed both girls were under the blankets just as the bedroom door opened.

Hearts racing as they both pretended to be asleep with their backs to the door. Hearing the door close slowly and then the both of them shuffle out the front door Judy and Nikki heard Michael's truck start up, along with John's Impala, and they pulled out of the driveway.

Nikki and Judy glanced at each other confused. Their only light being the tv that played a random show.

Their shadows dancing around in the background of the darkness.

"This is the place?"

Laura questioned after climbing out of Tim's Chevy Impala. Tim looked at the old bunker. Michael climbed out with Judy. Jennifer had returned to her home to be with her children and husband, but had told them to call if they needed her.

"Yeah. This is it. The Men of Latter's bunker. Top secrete."

She went onto explain as she walked toward the front door. Using her key she inserted it into the door and unlocked it allowing everyone to descend into the bunker.

Judy walked in nervously seeing Sam and Dean standing across from one another in the library their eyes on her as she walked over to the side of the balcony and stood there as her father, aunt, and uncle all entered the bunker behind her.

She watched as Sam and Dean both straightened their posture slowly their eyes on her uncle.

"Sir?"

Dean greeted though Michael was barely older than the boys. Michael narrowed his eyes, his hands on his belt as he stood there looking down at them.

"What the hell has been going on?"

His powerful voice echoed through the bunker. Laura and Tim just looked around taking it all in while Michael demands to know what had happened.

Both Sam and Dean glanced at each other looking worried.

Hours passed as Sam and Dean explained what all had happened. They told the three adults all about Nikki and Judy hunting with them. Angels and Demons. Crowley and Castiel. The trials. Nothing was left untouched.

Judy sat in her spot in one of the library chairs looking at her hands the whole time. Her body stiffening once they explained the angels and Castiel to her father.

She feared for Cas at that point in time.

"She never told us."

Laura said looking at the boys. Dean shrugged.

"Yeah, well that's Nikki for you. Bottling up all her emotions and fears until it finally explodes."

Time snorted and shook his head knowing that Dean was correct about his daughter. Laura and Tim were both sitting at the table, Michael stood. His body projected anger as he went and paced back and forth. His hand rubbing his chin as he chuckled and shook his head.

"Michael -- "

Laura warned knowing the signs of her brother. Michael shook his hand, his head tilted down as he looked at his boots.

"You two have put my daughter in harm's way since day one. Hunting is fine -- it's what we do -- but closing the gates of heaven and hell, turning demons human, dying -- since when did you ever think that was okay for my girl!!"

He shouted so loud both boys winced and their eyes shot to the floor. Sam swallowed hard before he spoke.

"We didn't mean for it to happen -- "

"But it did and you never once thought to have my kid come back home! If she would have died -- "

"We made sure she -- "

Dean tried to intrupt but Michael stormed over to him and went to grab the man by his shirt. Dean shot his arms out right as soon as Michael had lifted Dean clear up off the ground and slammed his back down onto the library table.

"Michael!"

Laura shouted watching as her baby brother held the Winchester flush against the table.

"You should have made her come home! You were responsible for her!"

"Dad!"

Judy shouted. It wasn't true. Sam and Dean weren't responsible for them. At one point in time, yes, but since they had turned eighteen the girls were free to do as they pleased.

"I let you teach them to hunt! But once this is all over that's it! She's coming home! Once we get Nick, she's done! They're done! This -- this is done!"

He growled in Dean's face. Nobody dared move as Dean could barely nod his head. Michael pressed down hard on his chest before he let the younger man up from the table. Dean gasped a little as it became easier for him to now breathe.

Michael took a few steps back as he looked at Sam.

"Show me to my room."
