AN: Okay, so I got an idea for this story about a year ago & it all came very fast… surprisingly. Although, I intended the fic to be a short one, it started to grow wings… and an engine! So, I split it into individual stories, which I was going to post separately but they have a common story line and a common character which I didn't want to lose.
So, here it goes. There are six stories, all set at different times. It started off with four stories but like I said, it grew an engine! I'll specify at the start of each story the approximate time they're set in, according to the show. Each story has a title and a number of parts.
Really hope you like it… feel like it's my baby… Enjoy!

Summary: A female hunter knows more about the Winchester boys than they do themselves. She's also holding a few secrets which she's reluctant to share.
OoooO
Prologue – a long, long time ago
The full moon shone in the cloudless night. John threw the last piece of wood onto the flames. It's a terrible night for hunting, he thought. There are too many shadows. The burning flesh tickled the inside of his nostrils and entered his lungs. It was a smell he was normally used to but these were his friends and it was his fault they were burning. They shouldn't have died. He should have gotten to them quicker.
He reached into his cooler box and pulled out a beer bottle. He twisted the cap off and threw it back into the box. Then, taking a mouthful, he stepped beside the young girl. She had watched him pile the wood into a heap and place the wrapped salted bodies on top. She watched him throw lighter fluid over it and set it alight.
"I know what you're thinking, pebbles," John said taking another swig from his beer bottle. "You're thinking their deaths were your fault but they weren't."
"Are you sure?" she mumbled, "because it certainly feels like it."
He looked over at her and sighed. She was too young to be feeling this. It was too much anger for one child to bear. He decided then and there that he would help her. Not only would he help her get revenge but he would also train her to be a better hunter. The possibilities are endless, he thought. He could introduce her to his sons and together they could fight the supernatural. And, maybe in time, they could be her family. But for now, he just stood beside her and together they watched the flames.
OoooO
