Sam's eyes widened and he made a shocked noise, his feet shuffling across the ground as Eve neared the demon. "But these boys don't need to know our deal, I like doing my business plans alone."
"I like what you're saying," the demon smirked before pulling Eve into his chest. "So what'll it be?"
Lifting her head, she whispered softly into his ear and the demon laughed before remarking, "No one's ever asked me for that. It'll be tough, but I'll do it just for you. Never had a Nephilim's soul." And then he whistled and snapped his fingers, a distant howl making the ground shake before the demon disappeared, reappearing a few hundred feet away. "Don't put up too much of a fight, Lily's been busy all day."
Rushing to her bag, she ripped out her angel's blade, taking a defensive stance. "Ready boys?"

Cas strained his ears, but couldn't hear a word. He gritted his teeth, shook his head softly as he heard the yelling and growling of the hellhounds in the distance, and pulled out his own angel blade. He could hear the Winchesters unsheathing their own weapons behind him. "God, if you're out there, anywhere, don't let them get hurt..." he prayed in his head.

Twisting the blade with ease, Eve narrowed her eyes and stepped forward slightly before asking, "Hey Castiel, quick question, can you, or I, see hellhounds? Because that would really make things easier?"
Sam grit his teeth and asked, "You mean your plan was to blindly attack the hellhounds?"

"I can see them, yes, but I am not sure whether you would be able to or not," Castiel replied, "they are essentially animalistic demons, so I would lean towards yes." And there they were. The big, slobbering hell mutts were coming right at them. They were roughly the size of male lions, black as night, with red, glowing eyes, and building muscles. They're tongs lolled as they wheeled onto the eastern road, coming at the four, howling and barking. "Your three o'clock," Castiel informed the two Winchester's, turning.

"Holy hell, they're ugly," Eve breathed before lunging towards the one closest to her. Sam followed Cas' guide and blindly swung in the direction of a hellhound, it's hot, stinking breath surrounding him.

"Holy hell, they're ugly," Eve breathed before lunging towards the one closest to her. Sam followed Cas' guide and blindly swung in the direction of a hellhound, it's hot, stinking breath surrounding him. Cas followed suit, leaping at one of the five or six dogs and striking it across the face with his blade. It howled, and patted at him, sending him flying backwards with a rip in his shirt. Dean, meanwhile, was recovering from getting knocked on his butt, but hadn't been hurt. No, he was getting up and still swinging, flashing on of the hounds on the nose.

Cas! Are you okay? Eve was too focused to talk, determined to get rid of these pests and more on to the next trial. Sam stabbed at the empty air and let out a triumphant laugh when one of the dogs whimpered in pain.
(Should Sammy still be the one to carry on the trials?)

"Fine," Cas replied as he got to his feet. It had barely broken skin. He yelled, "Dean, on your left," before diving towards another hellhound and this time spearing it in the eye, nearly falling to the ground as it did.

Letting out a frustrated shout, Eve drove her blade into the neck of the hellhound who let out an ear piercing shriek before snapping at her. Sam jumped at the sound, momentarily distracted before fending off the other hound.

Dean lunged towards the sound of the hound near Eve, swinging his own blade down at where he thought its body would be wth a grunt. Meanwhile, Cas had gone on to begin fighting another, bigger one. Bigger than the last, even.

"Anyone kill on yet?" Sam grunted, kicking back the jaw of a smaller hellhound as Eve drove the bladed deeper into the leathery skin of the beast. "Almost!" She said, wincing as the hound clawed at her side, desperate to escape her reach.

"I," Cas managed to begin as he dodged a large, swiping paw, 'think!" He didn't know for sure at all. The hounds seemed to be everywhere. He just hoped they could fend all of them off.

And then a earth shattering howl pierced the grunts and groans of battle and the hound fell at Eve's feet, her eyes wide and her shocked face half covered in its blood. "Whoops." Eve said after a moment, a mischievous glint in her green eyes. Sam stared in shock, the hellhound he was fighting long forgotten.

"Sam!" Dean snapped in warning, lunging with a swipe of his blade as he heard the hound growl, and its feet scuff the ground. The knife sunk into something soft, and he heard a growl before being shaken off, bloody knife in hand.

Sam stepped back, his eyes wide before he swung at the hound, his blade tearing the hounds fur. Eve stepped over the limp body of the first hound and rushed to Castiel's assistance. "Isn't this fun?" Gwen grunted, twisting the blade in her now blood covered hands.

"Oh yes, this was a great idea," Cas gritted as he swiped at another one of the hounds, causing it to dance back with a yelp, and then a growl as it started circling again.

Sam kicked at one of the hellhounds who growled before turning to charge at Eve. Slicing its neck quickly, she didn't flinch as it collapsed to the ground. Counting only the large one left and shouted directions at Sam and Dean.

Dean stumbled back as Eve commanded it, swiping at thin air and wincing as a spray of blood appear from nowhere and splattered his arm, while the hellhound howled in pain. Cas had leaped forward too, with much more precision.

A burst of pain coursed through Eve's veins and she let out a clipped shout before clenching her jaw, her eyes squeezed shut in pain. Stumbling slightly, she fell back into Sam's arms and while he shouted her name, his voice sounded miles away. All too soon, her ears were ringing and her eyes were wide an alert. As if on autopilot, Eve found herself barreling out of Sam's comforting arms and towards the beast, using her weight to sink her blade into the hound's torso.

"Eve!" Cas yelled, as Dean froze in terror and the angel charged the hellhound, but he was too slow. Eve was upon it, and as it wiggled underneath the blade, it finally went still, and there was no more howling or barking. Cas stopped dead, breathing hard, eyes darting about.

"Sonora—" Gritting her teeth, she pushed herself off of the now dead hellhound and grimaced at the dark blood covering her. She felt pain all over but could overlook it for now as she took in the three men in front of her, all (well at least for the most part) safe. "This shirt is ruined. And I just got it too." She said after a few moments of silence, studying the stained white t-shirt that clung to her heaving chest. Looking around, she looked at all the motionless hellhounds before looking over at the shocked demon who appeared beside her. "Well, a deals a deal, guess your soul isn't mine anymore, you clever little bit—" Cutting him off she exclaimed, "Trial one is done! Everyone okay?" And then her legs gave out under her and she fell, her head pounding and the pain growing rapidly.

"Eve!" Dean and Cas chorused at once, the former continuing, "Cas, go and do something, Cas-!" The angel quickly scooted by him, muttering a, "Dean, I'm on it," as he went and crouched down over the woman, now lying on the ground. That feeling was building in his chest again, the one he couldn't quite describe or understand. He put his palm on her head though, focusing on trying to heal her as he breathed rapidly, trying to calm down.

Eve's eyes were wide, filled with suprise and a bit of shock and she tried to speak but her words came out in a jumbled mess before she uttered one word, her voice strained as she said, "Burning." The cuts on her side were long forgotten, it was the ringing in her ears and the fire in her veins before she realized something; she had completed the first trial. Gaping for air, she flailed her heavy arms and said, "Trial. Trial!"

"Dean!" Cas barked from where he was crouched. The hunter's eyes widened, and he looked to his taller brother with a clipped: "Sam?" "Hurry!" Castiel barked as he bent over Eve, cupping one hand behind her head as she flailed.

"I'll carry her! You just get us out of here," Sam urged, picking the now limp girl up into his arms, a deep frown on his face. Turning to look at Dean he said in shock, "Dean she started the trials. It should have been one of us."

"I know, I know," Dean said, as he felt Cas grab his arm, and then watched him grab on Sam's, before they were suddenly back in one of the hotel rooms. The angel looked pained as he let the two of them go, hands running down his face shakily.

Sam carefully set down Eve onto one of the beds and ran a hand through his hair. "Metatron might know what to do." He said after a while, his eyes still wide in shock.

"I'll get him," Cas replied immediately, and within a second, disappeared. He was now in Metatron's study, breathing heavily as he looked around and called out for the scribe. "Metatron? Where are you?"

Glancing up from the desk he sat at with Kevin, he paused before suddenly appearing beside Cas. "What is it Castiel?" The angel whispered in an aggravated tone. "Kevin is in the middle of translating the tablet."
