A/N: So, back I go to Dean, I'm uploading late because last time I tried to join the crowd and had thirty seconds to write a summary before the security system at work came back up. I managed it (clearly I am a ninja) but the summary was ... lacking. Anyway, enjoy.

Splinter

Dean winced as he felt the bone splinter in his leg; the demon that had thrown him into the wall was advancing, having heard the crunch and groan that meant it had disabled its quarry.

It was whispering Dean's fate into his ear when suddenly it stumbled and started to cough.

Through a haze of pain Dean could see Sam's figure in the doorway, and someone hovering over him.

'Get lost, Ruby,' he said as he lost consciousness.

He half came to, felt Sam's worried presence and grunted, fading back to black when he heard his brother's huff of relief.

A/N: So I have had WAY too much wine & am trying very hard not to babble. Reviews=love, hope you like it.
