E/O Challenge: Line. Little tag scene to "Malleus Malificarum."
"You wanna kill me, bitch? Get in line."
Ruby looked at Dean. Down, wrenched in pain, coughing up blood. Still managing to insult her.
It would be so easy. Wouldn't have to do a thing. Walk away and *poof* … no more Dean Winchester.
Sam would be distrught. Broken. Vulnerable. She could use that to her advantage. Turn him now, just like they'd planned.
But Lilith had insisted. It wasn't time. Not yet. They had to make absolutely sure Sam would come to them on their terms. And overwhelming grief could jeopardize that.
So Ruby would save Dean. This time.
