Caleb, Matt and John were stationed a few feet away from the house. Ducking low in the bushes, watching and waiting. It was the third night they had been out on patrol it's effects of no sleep were wearing thin on the three.
"What if something happens?" Matt asks, "what if we're not there in time?"
"We will be."
"Not a definite."
"Matthew-
"Dad I'm serious. I don't want this to get Sammy-
"Matthew," John cut off, "Dean knows how to shoot, they'll be fine."
Matt narrowed his eyes, but didn't bother to say more as his eyes focused more on the motel room. None of the three saw Dean slip out of the room or the Shtigra slip into it.
John was getting edger and edger by the second, Caleb nudged him and pointed.
"Isn't that the midget?" he whispers.
"Damnit." John called out standing up and racing towards the room.
Caleb and Matt exchange a glance before pushing upwards and following after him.
"Get out of the way!" they could hear John yell, they quickened their pace before they heard loud gunshots ring throughout the silence.
Matt reached the door first, Dean and Sam safe was his first thought. John was holding Sam tightly to his chest while Dean watched. Out of the corner of his eye he could see the cloaked monster, Caleb walked towards it starring at it.
"Just for a second, I'm sorry." Dean answered looking defeated.
"I told you not to leave this room. I told you not to let him out of your sight!" John yelled and then he looked at Matt, "get your little brother out of here now!"
Matt stumbled forward taking Sam who was still dazed and confused into his arms before waking out of the room.
"What are they doing?" Sammy whispered as he heard the fire alarm go off.
"Don't worry about it Sammy," Matt whispered, "its okay. Don't worry about the sound. Ace you all right?"
Dean starred up at him with wide distant eyes but didn't say a word. A few moments later John and Caleb came out of the room smelling of smoke.
"Let's go." John said firmly, carefully not meeting any of his children's eyes.
SPNSPN- The Next Day
"I don't understand." Mary tells him.
"Your husband and sons saved her. I am no longer needed." He tells her.
Just as the glass door opens.
"Noah!" they could hear a child shriek as Sammy ran past them and jumped onto the bed of his now awake sister.
Mary turns, invisible to them, "is that my baby? Oh John why?"
And then she caught sight of her eldest, who looked exhausted and was barely able to stand upon his two feet as he sluggishly moved towards the bed.
"He's just a kid John!" Mary cried, despite it being useless, "why give him nightmares? Why hunt with our children? Why damn them?"
Tom placed a hand on her shoulder, "I'm sorry Mary it's time to go."
Mary shook her head, "I am not going with you Reaper, I am going back to my home."
And in a fierce, angry, orange colored flames that swallowed up her whole body she disappeared. Tom was happy, that she didn't need to be reaped but sad all at the same time. But there's one moment when his eyes lock with hers, that he begins to question if she can still see him.
"Tom." She whispers and that's all the confirmation she needs.
"What Noah?" asks John starring at Tom, but like most humans he was invisible.
"Nothing Daddy." She whispers back and smiles in Tom's direction, then again Noah Winchester wasn't like most humans Tom decided.
A/N: Do you like the ending?
Oh Spoilers for 7x12, what did you think of the vanishing beer? In any other show I would have said all right Dean was drinking too much but not in this one.
