E/O Drabble Challenge: word count 100
Challenge word: strike
Warnings: none
Summary: Dean tries to find ways to cope now Sam’s at Stanford, and John is off who knows where doing who knows what.
***********
Dean works the job like always, except everything’s different now.
Sam isn’t the only one to strike out that September. Dad takes off too. Says he’s got something to attend to, that Dean’s old enough to work cases alone – Dean can’t argue.
Sam’s in California and Dean’s everywhere Sam isn’t.
He kills two black dogs and gets his leg chewed up bad, spends two weeks in a fever-dream while infection rages and nearly sweeps him away. Dad checks on him while he’s out of it; he never knows.
He survives, but the Impala’s as empty as the long road ahead.
