A couple hours later, after a delicious meal, the four friends walked around town, enjoying being together. A while later they returned to the hotel, and after hanging out for a bit they went to bed. The whole evening Dean couldn't stop thinking about his meeting with Hunter. He knew it had been a mistake agreeing to do it, but what choice did he have? He maybe going alone, but he wouldn't be going unarmed! He'd take his gun as a percaution, but he had a feeling he wouldn't need it; like Hunter said he was a man of his word!
Soon it was time to go, Dean carefully untangled himself from Roman, before he got up. He quickly dressed, before he grabbed his gun and keys, once he was ready he gently kissed Roman's head, before he left.
As he drove he hoped that he could convince Hunter to let them go! He knew it wouldn't be easy, but he had to try at least! When he arrived he stayed in his car, he looked around, it was dark and there were many places Authority idiots could hide! His senses were on high alert for any sign of danger, but so far there was nothing. He didn't see Hunter or his car yet, so he decided to wait; if Hunter didn't show up in 10 minutes he was leaving! As soon as he thought that he saw headlights coming towards him, he tensed up as the car parked directly in front of his, and Hunter got out alone! Still unsure if this was a trap or not, Dean got out too and joined Hunter at the front of the car, Hunter smiled.
"Hey Dean, man you're looking pretty rough!"
"Yeah, that happens when you're beaten down by two Fairy Princesses, and their giant bodyguards!" Dean replied bitterly.
"Don't sound so bitter Deano!" Hunter said smiling. "We're family!" He added, as he put a hand on Dean's shoulder, Dean quickly knocked it off.
"Not anymore we're not!" Dean said angrily.
"Wrong Dean! We'll always be family!" Hunter replied.
"You got a hearing problem old man?" Dean asked visibly tensing. "Hunter, we're done with the family! Accept it Helmsley, and move the hell on! We've got a new life with two people we both love, this is our chance at a normal life and I won't let you screw it up for us dammit! We've given you years of our lives, our past and present...and now you're going to give us our future back!" Dean said angrily.
"Dean, it's you that has the hearing problem! You two betrayed your family, you turned your backs on the people who made you who you are...and for what? Two idiots who promise you a better life?"
"I'm only going to warn you once Hunter, stay the hell away from us! If you don't then I promise you we will go to war!" Dean said angrily.
"I'm sorry we couldn't come to an agreement Deano! Just remember the blood of your precious Agents will be on your hands, not mine!" Hunter said angrily. "You better know what you're doing Ambrose, cause we're going to war!"
"Don't worry about me Hunter, I've never lost a battle yet!" Dean said smiling, as he turned and began walking to his car.
"We'll be in touch soon Dean...very soon!" Hunter yelled, as Dean got into his car and drove away without looking back.
**Two Weeks Later**:
As the days passed, Dean continued to keep everything a secret from the others; believing that if they didn't know anything he could somehow keep them safe! He tried to act as normal as he could, but Roman, Paige and Seth all knew something was going on with him. He was always tense and on edge, but whenever they'd ask him about it he'd lie, giving them some bullshit story.
Of course the three of them never noticed The Authority members stalking them, but Dean did and he was getting angrier with each second that passed! He knew he had to do something to end this before one of his loved ones got hurt! He had vowed to keep the three of them safe, no matter what he had to do...even sacrifice his own life for them!
Finally two weeks later, Roman, Seth and Paige had gone out for dinner, while Dean stayed at the hotel. As Dean paced the room for the 100th time, trying to figure out a way to stop The Authority, Seth called, Dean answered his phone just as someone knocked on their door.
"Hey Two-Tones!" Dean greeted him smiling, as he walked to the door and opened it to find Hunter standing there.
"Dean, we've got trouble!" Seth said quickly.
"Seth, what's going on? Are you three okay?" Dean asked, his eyes never left Hunter.
"We're okay...but I don't know for how long!" Seth answered fear in his voice.
