)
Damien let out a dry laugh, nodding as he stared at the machete. His stomach was in knots. The instinctual side of him wanted to run and never look back. He knew John, he knew the hunter's ways. He could elude him for a long time... but then, really
looking at John, Damien didn't want to leave. He wanted to get on his knees and beg forgiveness for a sin that he hadn't committed.
He opened and closed his mouth, wanting to say something. Anything. But the words never came. He stood slowly, moving so he could actually lay on the bed. There was no sense in arguing because John was clear on his standpoint. He would just have to change his mind in the future.
"Why are you keeping me around if you believe everything you're saying, Winchester?" His words were quiet, harsh. He winced as he spoke, knowing full well his own anger was going to get in the way.
