It came for Lisa when her son was sixth months old, stared down at the baby as he slept in his crib, waited for her to check in, like the mothers always did.

The babe was healthy, full of fire and life, with that same spark all Winchesters had.

You would make a good hunter, it thought, staring down at the boy. Like your father and grandfather.

It shifted, eyes golden-yellow, and considered. The father didn't know, or he would have been here, somehow contacted Lisa. Even just a phone-call, every now and again.

It came for Lisa, and left without taking her. There was no point, if Dean wouldn't feel pain.

After all, it still had time.

Plenty of time.
