I apologize if this chapter is short and not to your liking. This chapter was very hard to write. I hope you still enjoy it. Next chapter will be better I promise.

Chapter 12

"Excellent. One half-breed is good but three? Is perfect. You've done well, my servant."

"Thank you, boss."

"Now all we have left to do is wait."

"For what?"

"For them to get a bit older and start showing their angelic powers. They will be of no use to us at this age. So I want you to keep watch over them. And remember to stay hidden. If the Winchesters catch sight of you, our plan is doomed."

The hooded figure bowed, "Yes, master."

"Can you believe they're a month old already?" Sam asked.

Bobby shook his head, "They are getting more and lovelier. I honestly never thought I would see the day you two Winchesters became parents."

"Hey! Don't think you'll be leaving us anytime soon, Bobby," Dean said.

Bobby, Dean, and Sam were watching the three children play with each other and their toys on the floor. John had pushed his ball far in front of him and was trying to reach it. He tried everything in his power to reach his favorite toy and when he couldn't, he started wailing. Dean chuckled.

"Aww, did John lose his toy?" He cooed as he handed the toy back to him.

"Where are your angels?" Bobby asked.

"Spending time with their brothers. Dean and I gave them a break from dealing with the children."

Just then Cas and Gabe appeared, "Are the kids alright?" Cas asked.

"Babe, what are you doing here?" Dean asked.

"I was just worried about the girls," Cas explained.

Dean and Sam sighed, "Cas, Gabe, the purpose of us giving you a break means you spend time with your brothers and you don't worry about Mary, Eden, or John."

"Yeah, if something was wrong with them and we needed you, we would call you," Dean said.

"So they are alright?" Gabe asked.

Sam groaned, "Do you see anything wrong with them?"

Cas and Gabe shook their heads.

"That's because they are fine."

"But, I thought I sensed John crying earlier."

Dean chuckled, "That's just because he couldn't reach his toy. Look, go and spend time with your brothers and let us worry about the children."

Cas nodded and kissed Dean's lips, "Alright. Let's go, Gabe."

Once Cas and Gabe left, Dean sighed, "Goodness."

"Tell me about it. They've been hard to separate from the kids lately."

"Well, it could just be that they haven't been separated from the kids in a long time. I mean you two usually are working and they're the ones to take care of the kids," Bobby explained.

Dean nodded, "Exactly why we suggested that we let them take a break. I didn't realize how hard it would be."

John started crying causing Mary to cry and Eden followed. Sam picked up John and rocked him while Dean sat with the girls and patted them. Sam handed John to Dean while he got lunch ready for the three. Cas and Gabe reappeared.

"What's wrong?" Cas asked.

Dean sighed, "Nothing, they're just hungry. Sam is getting their food ready."

"Oh."

Sam walked back into the living room and bumped into Gabe. "Gabe, what are you and Cas doing here?"

"We were worried about the kids. We sensed their distress."

Sam groaned, "Gabe, they are fine. You and Cas go and do not come back unless we call you or you are done with your brothers."

"But-"

"No buts. Go."

Gabe sighed and took his brother's hand and left. Sam sat on the floor and began feeding John as Dean began feeding both girls.

"Dean, do you need help?"

"No thanks, Bobby. I'm good."

Gabe and Cas returned to Bobby's a few hours later only to find Sam asleep on the couch with John on his stomach and Dean asleep on the floor between the sleeping girls. Gabe and Cas looked at each other and chuckled. Gabe went to wake up Sam as Cas gently shook his husband.

"Dean, c'mon wake up."

"Sammy, wakey, wakey."

Sam bolted awake, "Huh? Wha-? Gabe?"

"Hey, Babe."

Sam held John's back as he eased to a sitting position and he saw Cas helping Dean to stand.

"Man, I am never sleeping on the floor again," Dean grumbled.

"You two ready to go home?" Gabe asked.

Dean stood and cracked his back and nodded. Sam stood with John still sleeping in his arms. Cas picked up Eden and Gabe picked up Mary and the group headed toward the Impala. Gabe and Sam sat in the back while Cas climbed in the passenger seat with Eden.

"Cas, you might wanna hand Eden to Sam or Gabe. It's not safe to have a baby in the front seat. And trust me; I so don't need to be stopped."

Cas nodded and handed Eden to Gabe. Dean nodded and started the car. The whole ride was silent Sam started to nod off again. Suddenly Cas looked scared.

"Cas, baby, are you okay?"

"I don't know. I feel like someone is watching us."

Gabe looked out the back window and Dean looked through the mirrors but no one noticed anything.

"Don't see anything. Maybe you're just tired," Dean said.

Cas just nodded knowing that was not the case. Cas looked at Gabe and thought, Someone is following us, I can sense it.

Gabe nodded, I know. But it doesn't feel like a threat. I suggest we leave it alone.

Cas just nodded.

"Shit!" The hooded figure cursed under his breath. He dropped from his hidden spot and ran to his master's hide out. He found his master meditating and he hesitated. He didn't want to disturb his master.

"What?" His master asked opening his eyes.

"Forgive me master. I just realized that the angels can sense me. They cannot see me because I have remained hidden as you requested but if they can sense me, it won't be long before I am caught."

"Alright. We don't want our plans spoiled before we have a chance to put them into action."

He snapped his fingers and another figure appeared, "Yes, master? You called?"

"Yes. Mark him. Make him invisible to other creatures except us."

"Yes, master. I suggest you sit down. This will hurt," he said to his companion.

Twenty minutes later the other hooded figure was gone and he was lying on a table.

"What happened?"

"You have been marked. The angels will not be able to sense you anymore. You are hidden from any supernatural being except us here. You will still need to remain hidden from the Winchesters."

"Of course, master."

THREE MONTHS LATER

"Can you believe the children are already four months?" Sam asked biting into his sandwich.

"I know, they seem to be growing every day. I mean I know they're angels so they mature and grow faster than us humans but it's still shocking," Dean said.

Dean and Sam sat and finished their lunch and talked about their lives so far. Once they were done, Sam paid for the lunch and Dean dropped Sam back off at work and headed to Bobby's. He was working under a hood of a car when he heard a noise from behind him. He lifted his head and looked around. Once he was sure no one was there he shrugged and went back to work.

"Fuck, that was close," The hooded figure whispered to himself from his hiding spot.

He knew his job was to observe the angel hybrids but they were doing nothing but sleeping so he decided to spy on Dean Winchester.

Later that evening Cas and Gabe had just finished feeding the children and set them down on the living room floor of Sam and Gabe's house when the most interesting thing happened. Suddenly John started flailing his arms and babbling.

"What's wrong, John?" Gabe asked picking his son up.

John continued to babble and squeal and gaze at the door. Both Cas and Gabe looked confused.

"Gabe, what is he doing?"

Gabe sat still and listened and that's when he figured out what John was doing. "Cas? I think I know what John's doing."

"What?"

"I think he can sense Sam."

"Really?"

"Yeah, he may not be able to hear him but he definitely is able to sense that his daddy is close."

"Wow. The same way Mary can sense Dean and Eden senses me."

"Yup."

Just then Sam and Dean entered the house and Mary and John went wild. Dean and Sam chuckled and picked up their children.

"Oh, did someone miss me?" Dean cooed.

"Sam, John can sense you, did you know that?" Gabe asked smiling.

"What?"

"Yeah. You guys must have been a couple miles from the house and John went nuts and started babbling. At first I thought he heard you like I can but of course I remembered he couldn't hear so I figured he just sensed your presence."

"This is fantastic. The children are only four months old and experiencing angelic powers," Sam said smiling at his son.

The hooded figure was looking at the Winchesters and their angels through the window and smiled.

"Perfect. Master will be so pleased."

He watched as Dean and Cas took their children across the street and silently followed and observed them as they put the girls to bed.

"I must tell my master. He will be able to inform me of our next step."

The hooded figure smiled and got into his car and sped down the street.
