Youâd learnt a lesson from this hunt, at least. Even a hunt that seemed simple could pose a risk if you were careless. Youâd figured it was a simple job; youâd had no problem tracking down the ghoul that was taking the form of deceased residents of this town, and youâd set out armed with your machete to hunt the creature down. Youâd been too confident, turning down offers to help from your surrogate father Bobby and from your brothers, the Winchesters. âNah, I got this. Itâs gonna be an easy one.â
Now you were in the graveyard youâd tracked it to, struggling to drag yourself out from underneath the decapitated body of the ghoul, your skin and clothes damp with what was mostly your own blood. The creature had already got the jump on you once, almost tearing you to shreds, and adrenaline alone had kept you standing long enough to fight it off. On its second attack, you had been fast enough to defend yourself, but only just; the creature was so close to you as you sliced off its head that its body had fallen on you, knocking you onto your back.
For a few minutes, you feared that this was the place you would die; trapped beneath the body of this ghoul, slowly bleeding out. It took the last vestiges of your strength to haul yourself free. For a moment you lay there, panting, blood soaking into the grass, and gazed up at the stars. They seemed to spin around you, and you took a moment to relax. The pain hadnât kicked in yet. A cool night breeze toyed with your hair and chilled your skin, filling your lungs. Your damp clothes clung to you, and the pitch black sky sparkled.
As your racing heart began to slow and the adrenaline started to fade, you became aware of several areas of your body beginning to sting and throb with pain, reminding you that perhaps now was not the time to be stargazing. You started to sit up, and cried out; maybe your injuries were worse than youâd first imagined. Fresh blood spilled down your stomach, drawing your attention to the ragged gashes there. The thing had practically tried to rip you in half and had damn near succeeded. Your left leg appeared to be almost shredded, and if you hadnât been so out of it with fading endorphins and blood loss, you might have been sick. This was definitely worse than youâd initially realised, and now it was beginning to hurt.
Think logically. Your hunterâs brain was finally kicking in.
Tearing off your jacket, you used the sleeves to roughly tie it around your leg, gritting your teeth at the pain. You had more bandages and supplies in your car, but you had to get to it quick, before you lost too much blood or were in too much pain to walk.
You hauled yourself to your feet, letting out a soft, choked cry at the pain. Slowly you began to make your way towards your car, stumbling occasionally, forcing yourself on. Get to the car. Just get to the car, that was your only goal for now.
By the time you reached your destination, most rational thoughts had faded, wiped out by the fog of agony. You grabbed the first aid kit out of the trunk and then crawled into the back seat, using the spare jacket inside to press it to the wounds on your stomach, slowing the bleeding.
No chance of hiding this. You reached for your phone. Bobby was probably closest to you at the moment, and youâd prefer his gruff bluntness and honesty to Sam and Deanâs angst and worry right now.
Hearing Bobbyâs voice had never been such a relief. You struggled to keep your emotions together as he spoke. âHey, kiddo. Howâd the hunt go?â
âUm...â you stammered for a reply, fighting the unexpected tears welling in your eyes. âI killed it,â you finally croaked, your voice rough with pain.
Bobby picked up on your tone. âBut?â
âBut Iâm kind of bleeding a little bit,â you admitted, looking down at the bloodsoaked clothes and seats beneath you. You spared a moment to briefly mourn the loss of your favourite denim jacket, now scarlet instead of blue. âAnd I canât really drive... can you come get me?â
âDammit. Why didnât you call to ask for help?â When you stayed silent, he sighed, âwhere are you?â
You gave him the location of the graveyard, a little concerned by the black spots beginning to dance in front of your eyes. âIâll be there in thirty minutes. How serious is it? Scale of one to ten?â
You looked down at the damage. Nine, perhaps? âUm... seven?â
âAre you kidding me? Should you not be calling an ambulance?â
âYou know Iâm in trouble with the law right now, Bobby,â you reminded him. Ah, the perks of the job. âJust... get here, please?â
âOk, hang on in there, kiddo. Iâm coming.â
The next half hour was possibly the longest of your life. You felt like you were practically holding yourself together. As time went on it became harder and harder to keep firm pressure on the wounds, as dizziness began to set in, your limbs feeling heavy and numb. When Bobby finally arrived, you were struggling to keep your eyes open, a horrible cold feeling settling over you.
âShit. You call this a seven?â Bobby leaned into the open back seat, cupping your face in his hands, giving you a semi harsh slap on the cheek. âY/N, wake up. Donât fall asleep on me, ya idjit.â
âWasnât sleeping,â you murmured as Bobby gingerly peeled back the jacket covering your stomach. âThe legâs worse.â
âIâll take your car. Donât wanna risk moving you too much.â Bobby gently adjusted you so that you were sitting up, and you let out a strangled cry. âIâm sorry, kiddo. Deep breaths.â
With the help of the items in your first aid kit he swiftly tied a tourniquet around your leg, then wrapped the jacket firmly around your stomach, and you finally felt tears spilling free. âIâm sorry, Bobby...â
âItâs ok, kiddo. Just keep breathing and stay awake for me,â he told you as he shut the door, before getting into the driverâs seat. âI should really be taking you to the hospital,â he commented as he started the engine.
To your relief he didnât take you to the hospital, instead speeding back to his house. He carried you inside as gently as possible, setting you down on the couch.
Thankfully, Bobby was the most organised and prepared man you knew. He instantly had morphine on hand to help you with the pain, and was moving onto your wounds before the painkiller even had time to kick in; as much as you would have liked to wait, your injuries needed seeing to now. Bobby was quick and efficient, splashing alcohol over your wounds, holding you while you thrashed and screamed at the burning pain. Though so often gruff and almost grumpy on the outside, he knew when his softer side was needed, and he eased you through it calmly. âBreathe, Y/N. Deep breaths,â he instructed as he threaded a needle.
By the time he was about half finished, the morphine had kicked in, and while the pain was still there, aching and burning on your skin, it was lessened and easier to cope with. Soon you were almost relaxed as Bobby moved onto your leg. âIâll see what I can do here, but no promises. This is a mess,â he commented, referring to your shredded thigh. âIf I canât fix it, Iâm taking you to the hospital. You donât want to be losing your ability to walk, trust me.â
Almost an hour later, your leg was pieced back together better than you had imagined it would be. The pain had dulled to a gentle throb. You lay back, closing your eyes as Bobby pulled a blanket over you. âDonât know what you were thinking. You should have called for help.â
âIâm sorry,â you whispered as you closed your eyes. âI wanted to prove I could handle it.â
Bobby sat down on the edge of the couch next to you. âNothing wrong with needing some help, you know,â he told you. âYou idjits are all so stubborn, you and Sam and Dean. All I care about is that youâre safe, you hear me? Iâd much rather have a call from you telling me you needed some help than a call from one of your brothers telling me youâre...â he tailed off. âUnderstand?â
You nodded, closing your eyes as sleep tried to claim you. âGood,â Bobby finally said gruffly, in that Iâm still trying to be mad at you but just canât tone. âYou get some rest now. Donât go scaring me like that again.â
