"Hey, you don't have to go on any further you now. You can stay here you'll be quite safe as long as you are in the circle." Dean asks as he hands Claire a cup of water.

"No its ok, I want to come."

"You ready." Sam says as he unfolds the map and pulls out the compass while Dean helps Claire stand up from the rock she was sitting on causing her to lose her footing and fall onto him.

"Sorry." She says sheepishly as her lips brush past his cheek.

"Come on, and stay close to me. I don't want to lose you out their now do I?"

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Ahh she's gorgeous, she's got your eyes." Says Claire as she looks at Sam's baby pictures while they follow Dean through the woods.

"Do you think? Emma always says that she's got my mouth more than anything. This one here was her first birthday and then this is the most recent one taken last month at a BBQ."

"Oh my god look at her smile, she's such a cutie."

"Ok now stop!" Dean says as he turns around to face Sam and Claire. "Have you forgotten why we are here? We're meant to be looking out for evidence that the Wendigo is in this direction. I don't think looking at Baby Pictures is really helping." Dean turns around and continues to walk.

"Sorry Dean, but we haven't found anything since those markings about an hour back. We were only trying to pass some time." Claire says while Sam puts the photos back in his wallet.

"Well just keep more of an eye out ok. Anyway Sam you shouldn't be carrying around pictures of Emma and Mary."

"Why not?" Sam snaps back.

"Because it's too dangerous. If that wallet falls into the wrong hands you don't know what could happen."

"Wrong hands of who? You guys hunt spirits I doubt it very much if a spirit would kidnap your family and hold them for ransom." Claire says trying to lighten the atmosphere while Dean gives Sam a stern look.

"It doesn't matter, forget I said anything." Dean continues to walk off.

"Don't you think I worry about my family all the time Dean? Especially since I've been having my visions again."

Dean stops walking and turns back to face Sam while Claire watches on slightly confused.

"Having these pictures in my wallet is the only thing keeping me going these days. Don't make me give them up."

The trio stand in silence for a moment then Dean walks up to Sam and gives him a hug.

"I'm sorry dude. I know you worry about them, I do to. Hey am I in their?"

"Why would I want your ugly face in their?" Sam laughs as Dean gives him a punch on the shoulder.

"Anyway Mary has got my eyes. Only the good looking ones in our family inherit them!" Dean says as he continues to walk while Claire still looks on confused.

"I really don't get you guys."

Just then the trio listen as they hear someone calling out for help.

"Tanya?...that's Tanya's voice. It's coming from over their?" Claire says but she is quickly quietened by Dean as he puts his finger against his mouth.

"It's the Wendigo." Sam whispers to Claire. "They imitate human voices to try and confuse its prey."

"It's coming from all around us. How many of them things are out there?"

"Just the one, but that's more than enough."

The trio stand still, listening for the next sound of the Wendigo when suddenly something rushes past Sam causing him to fall to the floor.

"Sam, you ok?" Dean says as he keeps his eyes peeled towards the trees.

"Yer…I'm fine. Dam thing just winded me." Just as Claire helps Sam to his feet the same Wendigo runs past Dean causing him to go flying to the floor.

"SON OF A BITCH!" Dean yells as he picks himself up.

"He's trying to make us angry, make us slip up." Sam says as he quickly re-checks his gun.

"Yer well the dam thing is doing a good job. Claire you stay behind me ok? Claire."

Sam and Dean look around but Claire is no longer in sight.

"CLAIRE……CLAIRE. Weren't you watching her?" Dean says as he continues to call out her name.

"Course I was, she was right there like a second ago. CLAIRE."

"DEAN……DEAN HELP ME!"

"Over there, move!"

Sam and Dean race through the trees as Claire continues to call out. Dean's pace quickens as he hears Claire's screams getting closer. As they enter a clearing in the woods Dean and Sam find Claire hanging from a tree by her hands. Blood is trickling down the side of her mouth and she is covered in dirt.

"You ok? Did it hurt you?" Dean says as he cuts Claire down and she falls into his arms.

"No I'm fine. That bastard just came out of nowhere though."

"Your gonna be fine." Says Dean as he inspects the cuts on Claire's face.

"Dean we need to get out of here like now." Sam says as he looks around at the trees standing tall above them.

"What do you mean?"

"When have you ever heard of a Wendigo keeping one of its victims tied up outside for someone to find. This is a trap."
