John may have thought he didn't want Lily as an enemy but now he was sure.

Lily and James had gotten up bright and early they and their guest had a nice warm breakfast. John hadn't had a good home cooked breakfast in 3 years, since the night Mary was killed. After breakfast the 3 headed out to find these witches, the unclean.

It was ridiculously easy with the help of the natural-borns as he began to call them in his head. Almost too easy. John was a cautious man and very suspicious. He was beginning to think the Potter's reactions and offer of help was a trap and they were going to lead him right to the witches.

And they did. Though not for a trap as he suspected. The natural magic that gives them their power is from the earth, and all natural, or earth-bound power hates interference. Mother Earth doesn't care if they are from heaven or hell she didn't want them near those she had blessed. So Lily and James could easily see the black taint on the unclean witches. To them it was like a bright brand or tattoo, and just as damning as the Dark Mark.

John was impressed. Lily had hunted these witches like a pro. James too. He didn't want to be on the other side of these two. He could tell they would be something to be reckoned with alone but together they were unstoppable. He would love to have them at his back when old yellow eyes came knocking.

Lily and James had never purposely killed anyone. Sure some Death Eaters died due to the battles they fought in but that was never their intention. They didn't realize till he had pulled the trigger that John was aiming to kill not capture.

Lily screamed out when the first witch fell out of the full body bind she had them in stone dead with a bullet hole in the center of their fore head. Before either could recover from their shock John had executed the other 3 bound witches. When the last of the coven of 4 hit the ground eyes still wide open in fear Lily lost control of her stomach. James only held onto his lunch because he was looking after his wife.

"Take me back James. Please take me away." The poor woman wept.

All of John's fear and mistrust were shattered just then. This woman was more then able to catch the murdering witches, but the compassion and soft heart she showed now could never be faked. And for a moment he felt like shit. As he watched the man not even a decade younger than him pick up his bride and carry her away in tears. He knew he had put them there. He had made this beautiful and fiery woman break down. He was left to clean up. He piled the bodies together and burned them before heading to the Potter's guessing he would have to pack his things and leave.

Lily was sitting there at the kitchen table in there rented house when John came in. She was staring into her cup not even seeing it. She looked up when the door closed.

"John." She croaked with a weak voice.

He looked at her. "I'm sorry you had to see that." He said turning to go to his room. "I'll leave. I understand."

She was up in a flash. John hadn't had a woman hold him since Mary but with Lily Potter wrapping her arms around him he just had to hold her. "Why? Why couldn't we take them to the police?"

He soothed her hair and rocked her lightly like he use to do when his dear Mary was upset and would cling to him. "The police could never handle or hope to keep them captured. And if they tried good officers could die." he told her grimly. "I didn't know about any of your kind because I had never met any before."

James came down the hall to see his wife in another mans arms. He should be in a rage, and usually he would be, but there was something about John Winchester that was different. He leaned against the hall wall. "Back in England there's a war going on. People born like me, from long lines of magic users think they are better than those like Lily who are the first generation in their family to have magic. They would class you as an animal and consider hunting you a sport, and if they caught you they would torture you until you lost your mind before killing you." He told John looking him right in the eye so he knew it was the truth. "I have never put some one down like you did today. But I do see why. I and an auror; a magical officer, and personally have captured several of those vermin. But they are rich and powerful and have rich friends so they just buy their way off. If we were to treat those murdering bastards the way you treated those unclean then our home country would be so much safer."

Lily looked at her husband then up at the man that was still holding her. "I could see they were dark. That the vile taint was pulsing and growing every second but I could also see their faces. We killed 4 humans today. Normal ordinary people, they had nothing special about them except an infection of evil. I can't kill people." She told them both.

"Your looking at these things wrong." John told Lily looking down into her face. "They might look human but they were willing to sell their souls for power. Then they used that power to get petty revenge and kill others was more then enough to give them a death sentence. Normal ordinary people wouldn't sell their souls to kill others. Only monsters do that. And I hunt monsters regardless of what shape they take."

Lily looked at him for a long while before she spoke again. "Teach us. We're in America for a few months. Take us with you and teach us how to hunt monsters." She half asked half demanded.

John looked to James and getting a nod he gained two partners.
