Around 8, Dean had decided that it was time for Riley and Hunter to go to bed and when he told them they listened to him without argument. Riley had actually fallen asleep in the other room watching one of her movies so Sam carried her to her room and Hunter followed Dean and was acting exactly like him. They tucked them in and said their good nights. Dean stood at each other their doors and just let it all sink in that these were his children and he couldn't imagine how much he already loved them. He told himself that he would never let anything happen to them. He wanted them to have the perfect life that he had never gotten a chance to have. Afterwards they went back downstairs and watched the news and various other stuff on TV.

Sam was tired and knew that he would have to get as much sleep as possible since tomorrow was going to be a rough and late night. So he decided to head up to a very comfortable bed that it seemed had give him some stability that allowed him to get the most sleep that he had had in a while. It was about 9 when he went up and that left Missouri who was in her room reading and Dean and Kat who were on the couch in each others' arms watching a movie.

There hadn't been much on TV until Dean was flipping through the channels and saw that the Shining was on. He loved this movie and decided to leave it on. He saw that there was no protest form Kat so he left it on. They were about half way through when he felt Kat shift in his embrace. He instantly began to worry and then brushed it off knowing that it wasn't anything big she was just getting more comfortable.

Dean- "You okay?" he still had a tint of worry in his voice that he tried to hide.

Kat- "Yeah, just a little pain, but nothing major."

Dean looked down into her eyes and saw that she was telling the truth was reassured. He pulled her closer to him and kissed the top of her forehead. She just smiled and they continued to watch the movie. Although this was his favorite movie, his mind began to drift off. He had a very strong feeling that something bad was going to happen tomorrow night. He didn't know what but something just didn't feel right. It didn't make much sense either since Sam was the one that had always had the visions. Why wouldn't he have said anything? Dean was deep in thought when he noticed that it was midnight and the movie was over. He looked down at Kat who had fallen asleep in his arms. He really didn't have the heart to wake her but there no way that he was going to be able to carry her up the stairs. So he decided to just let her sleep there and he would hopefully fall asleep. He still couldn't shake the feeling of something really bad happening and reluctantly closed his eyes hoping that it would go away.

Then Dean drifted off into sleep know that for right now, Kat was safe in his arms. He just held her as close as possible trying his best to prove to himself that he could protect her. Then he finally drifted off into a dream that he really wished he hadn't had.

Dean had gotten about 5 hours of sleep when his eyes shot open. He quickly looked down and noticed that Kat was still sleeping in his arms and then slowly began to get up. He carefully moved and laid her head down on a pillow and began to hobble as gracefully as possible over to the kitchen. When he made it in there, he was surprised to see that Missouri was sitting at the table with a cup of tea. She looked at him, saw he was worried, and motioned for him to take a seat.

Missouri- "You should go with your gut feeling."

Dean- "What?"

Missouri- "I know what your sensing and believe it or not, I've been having the same feeling lately about it."

Dean- "Tomorrow, I'm going to follow them there. And you're not going to be able to stop me!"

Missouri- "I know child, and that's why I'm going with you. Sam and Kat are going to need our help so we'll both be there."

Dean- "And you're not going to fight me on this? Or tell me that I'm just paranoid?"

Missouri- "I care about you boys and Kat is like a daughter to me. I do believe you and I have the same feeling and we are not going to let anything happen to them. Now, go back in there and get some sleep, you'll need it if we're going to help them tonight."

Dean- "Thanks."

Missouri- "Don't doubt yourself, she does feel safe with you and love you. She might not always say it but she does boy, she just isn't sure where you are in all of this. Go be with her."

Dean- "Thanks for that too, see you later."

And with that Dean went back into the living room and stared at the sleeping Kat. She looked so peaceful and she had no idea just how much Dean cared and worried about her. He again saw her shoulder and it just made him wince and then he saw her shiver slightly. He grabbed another blanket, her up, pulled the blanket up and wrapped his arms around her once more protecting her from whatever was out to get her. This was Dean's job to do and he felt so admirable being the protector and he would do whatever he had to do to keep her safe and in his arms.

Around 8 Sam heard knocking on his door and rose instantly. He barely even got to the door when it began to open. He saw two pair of very awake eyes peering into his still sleepy eyes. Riley and Hunter were wide awake and Sam could tell that they were ready for the day.

Riley/Hunter- "Uncle Sam, Uncle Sam, time to wake up!"

Sam- "I'm awake, you two are up really early!"

Riley- "It's 8 that's not early at all!"

Sam- "Okay, what do you say we go downstairs and get breakfast started?"

Hunter- "You mean ice cream and candy?"

Sam- "No, a real breakfast. Missouri would kill me if I fed you that stuff."

And we that the three headed downstairs. As they were walking into the hallway Sam peered into the living room and saw the TV on. He then saw the back of Dean's head and figured that he was up watching TV but when he called his name and got no response Sam looked closer. He saw Dean and Kat fast asleep and then looked back at the doorway to see Riley and Hunter about to run into the room. Before he could stop them, they flew past him. Hunter quickly jumped unto Dean's lap cause both Kat and Dean to awaken startled.

Dean moaning- "What the…"

Hunter- "Time to wake up!"

Riley- "Come on we're hungry."

Kat- "I think that the two of you could have eaten without us."

Riley- "Yeah but it wouldn't be as fun!"

Sam- "Hey if they have to wake me up, then it's just right that they wake up you two up as well."

Dean- "Well, we're up!"

Missouri already had breakfast made and the table set. All of them sat down and began to eat. When they were done they all just stayed at the house till about noon. They were all doing various chores to keep themselves occupied.

Dean- "So what time are you two leaving tonight?"

Kat- "Around 9:30. We figure that it should be late enough and that's when all of the people leave the zoo."

Dean- "I think that we're going to have to talk about this."

Kat- "Yes, I agree, but right now we have to go get some supplies for tonight and make sure that everything is set."

Dean just nodded and they went back to what they were doing.

Dean had spent another day watching the kids and trying to keep them busy. It was a lot harder than he thought especially since Hunter wanted to learn how to fight. Dean couldn't wait to get that stupid cast off. As the day went on, he grew more and more worried about what was going to happen later that night. The feeling was still there and he couldn't get rid of it. He and Missouri had to agreed to wait a little while after they left before following them.

Around 9 Kat and Sam were doing double checks to make sure that they had everything that they needed. Once that was done, they started to load the car. Dean and Missouri just watched.

Kat- "Okay looks like we've got everything."

Sam- "So are you ready to go?"

Kat- "Ready as you are."

Dean- "Okay so the kids are in bed, and you two better be back in about 2 hours! And be careful."

Kat- "Always" she gave Dean a quick kiss and then climbed into the car.

Dean- "Sam, watch your back and hers!"

Sam- "Dean, don't worry, you're usually the gong ho one. So just stop worrying, we've got this."

And with that Sam and Kat pulled away and were on the way to the zoo.

When they arrived at the exhibit, it was completely empty, which was just what they had expected. They began to paint over the symbols as well as reciting a special incantation that was in the journal just for extra security. Everything was going according to plan until they heard footsteps coming their way.

Kat- "Sam, just keep going. I'll go see what it is."

Sam- "Okay, just be careful."

Kat- "Always!"

Kat was just exiting the room when she saw the four boys beginning to circle around her. She was going yell to Sam but figured that she could handle it and that he would finish soon enough and she could hold them off.

It had been about 15 minutes since Sam and Kat had left and Missouri and Dean were already on their way to help.

Missouri- "Child, would you just calm down!"

Dean- "Easier said than done!"

Missouri- "Look we're here!"

Dean and Missouri were just getting out of the car when they heard a scream and went running or in Dean's case, hobbling over towards the painful cry.

Kat was in the middle of the circling boys when they started closing in on her.

Kat- "Hey, guys come on we don't have to do this." she said nervously.

Just then they began lunging at her. She dodged the first one but one of them came up behind her. He grabbed her left shoulder and began clawing at the unhealed wound. Kat could feel the still fresh stitched being torn in both the front and the back. The pain was unbearable and she could feel the flow of blood coming from both sides. She let out a painful yell although she tried to keep it in, it just came out.

Sam had heard the yell and glanced the way that it came but knew that Kat could handle herself. He also knew that the sooner he did this, the sooner this would all be over. He couldn't stop now or it might never be finished. He stopped painting over the symbols and started pouring gasoline all over the walls. He then grabbed the staff and snapped it in half. He finished saying the incantation and throw a lit match in each corner of the room.
