AN: This drabble is my response for the first day's promt purity in this years Midam Week.
Michael watches the boy, who sits surprisingly calmly on the bare ground considering that he had only a few hours ago being dragged down into the depts. of Hell.
Adam Milligan certainly is a much more fascinating creature than one would think. Being killed by a monster mimicking his mother just because he was related to a man he barely knew. And even still, with a mere mention of his mother, he had instantly been ready to abandon his personal Heaven and join the war that had nothing to do with him.
And the stubbornness which he had stuck to his decision. The Winchesters surely had done all they could, but nothing had managed to make him doubt himself. Not until he was lying on the ground spiting blood just because he was related to a man too stubborn for his own good.
And even after that, after being left behind by his brothers, after witnessing Michael himself in his true form descend from Heaven, he just stood there regarding the vessel Michael had taken after realizing his mistake. He had reached as if to touch but then withdrawn and asked nervously: "So you are Michael?" Nod Michael gave was followed by a moment of silence and then, with a surprising conviction, he said one word: "Yes."
Even now, when he has been dragged into the Pit just because he had given his body to the angel, he stays calm and collected, as if this would be only a temporary setback.
"Well," Adam says shaking Michael from his thoughts, "are you just going to sit there staring at me or are we going to get out of this hell hole?"
Michael hides his smile. Adam certainly is a fascinating creature, so full of hope, faith and innocent that perhaps even Hell can't suffocate it.
