Ruby frowned when she realized what she was doing. She was placing her trust in humans. In humans that were absolutely useless, the very being she hated. It wasn't exactly hatred, this feeling that stirred within her. Well, maybe it was hatred but there was something else too. This feeling she had was too big to be just hatred.
Maybe it was anger, because they could easily fall apart. Humans tend to not think too far into the future, not think at all, and when they did it was only to see how it benefited them. They never looked at the big picture.
Sure, she was looking out for herself as well. At least she had a plan, always thinking of the best way to solve the problem. She never made things harder than they had to be, trying to save everyone like those two did. Sure, that made Sam and Dean edgy around her but her way was best. If she could get out as quickly as possible, then it was worth the risk.
When they succeeded, she'd come back, reassured that she had placed her faith in a secure spot. Not the best but it had potential. They would have tired but relaxed faces, carefree for that small moment, and she would think that maybe they had a chance.
Sometimes, though, when she saw them fail and lose everyone, that feeling would come back. It wasn't admiration; they were still stupid. It wasn't joy—they still haven't won the war—and it wasn't relief. They were just Sam and Dean after all.
If anything, when she saw disappointment cloud their eyes and loss paralyze their strength, she felt envy.
They still had each other.
