General Wee!Chesters training fics, with maybe a specific story  
I remember YEARS ago reading a search for Wee!Chesters who´d been "abandoned" by John in the woods with hardly any supplies and practically no prior notice. Just, all of a sudden, "'Bye kids, you'd better make it back home by this certain time."

I dont know if this was a story or if someone was describing what they'd like to see in a story.

I would really love to read this, or any variation of this, if it exists.

I would also love any recommendations for similar types of stories where John's training tactics go beyond what the rest of us might feel is safe or rational.

If John is abusive, that's fine.

I'm thinking of really cruel scenarios too, like burying them alive or tying them up and leaving and saying he wont return so they need to escape on their own.

No wincest, please.

Thanks so much!

Are you sure that was a fic? I remembered that being from one of the official novels? Or am I mixing things up again

You know what?

I think you may be right. It's been a really long time since I read it. I remember being slightly dissatisfied with it, wanting SOMETHING more.

Now I realize that I wanted the fanfic writers' version of it!

But I'd still enjoy reading it again.

Do you know which book it was?

I'm still looking for fanfic training stories, if you have any to rec!

Thank you.

:)

This is a little like what you're describing: http://archiveofourown.org/works/465040/chapters/802862

It's called The Road Goes Ever On & it's about John dropping teen!chesters off on the side of a highway for "training."

Oh man, I remember that one.

Now that I think, back in S1 or S2, there was one where Dean had been dropped off on his own along the Appalachian Trail, and fell through a time warp. He went missing for months in this time, and was walking the trail back when the area was being settled--ran into a child's ghost, and got him back to his home and folks and put him to rest, and eventually stumbled into a town months after he'd gone missing.

There was another one, too, where he stumbled back in time and discovered the YED possessing people in that area though history.

Unfortunately, I can't remember either title or author on either of those. I'm no help. But maybe this will tickle someone's memory.

Ooh, those sound interesting!

I hope someone's memory does get stirred!

Not sure if this is the Appalachian Trail fic but it sounds similar:

Trail Magic
Author: Bella Temple
Summary: Dean hates camping. There's a very, very good reason for this

and the remix;

You'd Better Go in Disguise
SUMMARY: Dean's been lost on the Appalachian Trail for three months, and John is close to giving up when he gets the call.

Nice!

Thanks so much. I can't wait to read them.

Trail Magic was indeed one of those I was remembering. Bookmarked, and thank you! The remix is tabbed to be read.

Impala Conversations (http://archiveofourown.org/works/673522/chapters/1232331) by alex_l_kerr: "Sam and Dean joke, banter, bicker, and reconcile some rough truths."

Ways We Stay Alive (http://archiveofourown.org/works/2327414/chapters/5127230) by yet_interpid: "'Gotta be just like the real thing, son,' Dad says, tightening the rope against Sam's bare skin. 'So you won’t panic when it happens someday.' Sam's tied up in a shed in the woods. Dean's stuck back at home with a pile of research to get through before he can take out the monster and get Sam back. And Dad? Well, Dad's the monster. That's just how training goes. Summer 1995."

Awww!

I just read "Impala Conversations," and it was so sweet and sad.

Thank you. The training part of it fit right in with what I was looking for.

:)

I'll read the second one in a bit.

I absolutely have to rec the Sparta verse by lovesrain44

http://archiveofourown.org/series/11750

It's not precisely what you're looking for, but if you like asshole!John (while still feeling very realistic and canon, not an over-the-top monster), fucked up training, ANGST, and some hurt (but not quite enough comfort), this is perfect. It's Sam centric series in which John takes the boys (12 and 16) the spend the summer training in the woods and Sam hates every single second of it.

Author summary: Sam finds out that winning a soccer trophy won’t change his Dad’s mind about how the summer should be spent. Dad wants the boys in training, Dean can’t wait to try out that new crossbow, and Sam, he doesn’t want anything to do with any of it. Trouble ensues.

i think you are looking for this
http://archiveofourown.org/works/3416087/chapters/7481375

it is an excellent fic and there is a scene where Sam and dean are left in the woods by John and told to meet him when they make their way out. It's one of my favorite fics EVA!

I'll just throw this one in here, fits kinda in your request.

Also: thanks for asking this! I always wanted more fics with the boys left somewhere in the woods, so I'll be happily picking out the fics here :-)
