Bobby's House- 6:14 PM (Zoey's POV)

It was super quiet at dinner. Ryan was halfway through his plate, Sam and Dean were casting curious glances my way and snickering. Dad was just sitting there, staring at Ryan. It was kind of...creepy. Bobby was the only normal one, attempting to make small talk with me.

"So, Ryan, what was it you gave Zoey?" He asked.

"Yeah, what did you give her?" Dean chimed in, laughing. Sam chose that exact moment to take a drink, and he ended up with water coming out of his nose while laughing. Ewww.

"I... uh... Zoey, did you wanna show them?" Ryan asked, smiling. The clueless dope. But that's what I liked about him. I took the box from my pocket and slid it to Bobby. He opened it up and his eyes widened.

"Dang, Zo. It's beautiful. You've got a keeper." Bobby exclaimed, which only made me turn bright red.

"And by keeper he means the necklace and the guy." Dean muttered to Sam pretty loudly. Bobby rolled his eyes and passed the necklace over to show Dad. He eyes got very very large and I could've sworn I saw his lips tilt upward slightly.

"That really is...quite dazzling." He replied. Then finally, he smiled at me. Relief flooded my entire body. I hate having people upset with me.

"Thanks." Ryan and I said at the same time.

"AWWWW!" Sam yelled, but I let it slip cause I was in such a good mood.

(Castiel's POV)

Zoey's growing feelings for Ryan were beginning to concern me. Not just in a fatherly, human way, but because of what happened in her dream as well. Not that I didn't like Ryan, but he seemed...odd. But as long as Zoey was happy, we would all be happy, I guess. We just had to keep a very close eye on her and Ryan. Because Dean told me what adolescents do when they think nobody is watching and I don't like the sound of that one bit.

"Ryan, will you excuse us for a moment?" I addressed him. He nodded, and went into the other room.

My child sighed. "So what is this about? Is it about that kiss? Cause I really didn't mean to, it just sorta happe-"

I cut her off. "No, Zoey. It's not about the the...thing. It's about that dream you had. About your betrothed?" I hinted. Zoey's eyes widened in realization. "No, no. He couldn't be, that's not possible, right? I mean, he's human. He can't exactly help me destroy the world!" She said, her voice growing more panicked by the minute. It killed me to see my daughter in such a state.

"It's possible." I explained. "There's also the option he would be possessed."

"So...wait, he's possessed?" She asked, frowning. Dean shook his head. "Sammy and I have thought about it too, but he's not possessed right now." Sam nodded in agreement.

"All we're saying is, play it safe, Zo. We don't want you in any danger." Sam replied.


Unknown Location- 11:46 PM

Raphael waited impatiently in the middle of the field. He didn't want to be stuck on this vile planet any longer than he had to.

"ORIAS!" He boomed. "COME TO ME THIS INSTANT!" He had gotten tired of waiting.

Raphael heard a rustle behind him. He grimaced. If there was anything he despised more than the human culture, it was demons. Filthy creatures made by his idiot brother.

"S-sir? I am h-here as you requested." Orias cowered behind him.

"How is the...creature doing?" Raphael eyed him with disgust. "Are her abilities developing well?"

Orias nodded shakily. "Yes, sir. She...seems to have natural affinities involving mostly plants and animals."

Raphael nodded. "Earth, that seems about right." This creature is going to be a serious pain if we can't manage to sway her.

"Pardon, sir?" Orias asked, shivering from the chilly night air.

"Earth. Her element. The other three elements will be looking for her soon, I expect. We must work quickly." Raphael replied, growing impatient yet again. Orias shook his head. "Wait, she can't be an element, her powers weren't created naturally." He said.

"That's what makes her different. That's what could make her a formidable enemy if we don't sway her. It's Zoey's destiny to reject her the other elements, and free both Michael and Lucifer. She is the last chance we have...to end all of this. " Raphael smiled. It was an evil, horrible smile. "Anyways, do you have what I asked for?"

"Yes, sir. Agares, come forward." A large, hulking man with pure black eyes stepped forward. "You know what to do. " Orias commanded. Agares nodded. Just then, thick black smoke began pouringg out of his mouth, until he suddenly dropped dead.

The trail of smoke floated through the air, floating until it reached its destination. Under the crack of a door, up a staircase, down a hall, and into the mouth of a sleeping boy. Ryan. His eyes opened, and they were jet black.
