SPN Drabble Challenge

A/N: Here are my much, much delayed drabbles from the past month or so, combined into a four part story. I know I should've written, but my brain refused to comply. The past few weeks have been pretty stressful. Inspired by the Powerpuff Girls, obviously...

Prompt: Lock

Word count: 158

Disclaimer: I lay no claims to the adorably cute Cas, puppy-faced Sam, or spunky Dean.


• 11 AM •

Alarms blared overhead as civilians screamed and ran for their lives, desperate to escape the animals sprung free from their once-locked habitats. Amidst the melee, a small boy calmly stood in the man-made jungle of a curious black cat.

"Hello."

The young panther slunk closer.

"You're very black," the child observed.

Following a tentative sniff, the feline allowed itself to be pet by the small, out-stretched hand, the boy smiling as he stroked the silky fur with deliberate, yet awkward pats.

"Dammit, Cas." An irate Bobby approached the young pair.

"Why the hell would you release an entire zoo?!"

"Sam told me they kept the kitties in cages."

A feral snarl reverberated from behind them and they turned to see a massive cat baring glistening fangs at them.

"H-hello," Castiel gulped, eyes wide.

The panther crouched low, ready to pounce.

"That's no kitty... I hope you've got enough juice to zap us outta here."

Thankfully, the cherub did.
