Hazel's POV
Sammy was asleep in the passenger seat, I stared out the window,
I said" can I have a pet?"
Dean said" no."
" why?"
" because you can't. Drop it." I huffed then continued staring out the window, I grabbed my coloring book and crayons and started coloring, I smiled coloring in the puppy and kitty. I liked animals, I just can't have one 'cause Dean said so! Maybe if I run away like Sam did I can have a pet. I want a pet, I really want a pet. I flipped around and laid on my back, staring up at the roof of the impala,

I was a princess, I was running through the meadows, being chased by a little puppy. I laughed, running then stopped, looking back at the puppy, I said" hi, puppy!" It barked happy, I smiled saying" you're name is lucky... no... spot! No... lucky spot?!" I nodded then pet the puppy, I said" we're gonna be the best friends in the world!" Lucky spot tackled me, I giggled and rubbed his back as he licked my face like crazy.

I was pulled out of my dream when I heard Dean say" Haz! Hazel!"
I said" huh?"
" come on." I got out, we were at a cabin thingy, I walked next to Sam, I held onto his hand and then started walking.

Sam said" So Black Water Ridge is pretty remote. It's cut off by these canyons here. Rough terrain, dense forest, abandoned silver and gold mines all over the place..." Dean and me weren't listening to Sam, we're looking at a picture of a giant bear. Dean said" Dude, check out the size of this friggin' bear."
Sam walked to us," ...and a dozen or more grizzlies in the area. It's no nature hike, that's for sure."
Then a man said" you boys aren't planning to go out near Black Water Ridge, by any chance?" Dean and Sam turned around, I laid my head on Dean's shoulder,
" oh, no, sir. We're environmental-study majors from U.C. Boulder... just working on a paper."
Dean said" recycle, man." Then chuckled, Dean's a dummy sometimes,
The man said" bull. You're friends with that Haley girl, right?"
" yes. Yes, we are, Ranger... Wilkinson."
The man said" well, I will tell you exactly what I told her. Her brother filled out a backcountry permit saying he wouldn't be back from Black Water until the 24th. So it's not an exactly a missing persons now, is it? Tell that girl to quit worrying. I'm sure her brother's just fine."
Dean said" we will." The man started walking," well, that Hailey girl's quite a pistol, huh?"
" that is putting it mildly."
" actually, you know what would help is if I could show her a copy of that backcountry permit. You know, so she could see her brother's return date." Dean's good at getting what he wants, we got the permit.

We walked out of the place, now I was in Sam's arms,
Dean said" yeah. Heh heh."
Sam said" what, are you cruising for a hookup or something?"
" what do you mean?"
" the coordinates point to Black Water Ridge. So what are we waiting for? Let's just go find dad. Why even talk to this girl?" Sam opened my door,
" maybe we should know what we're walking into before we actually walk into it." I squirmed in Sam's arms, wanting down, he put me down and I climbed into the impala,
" what?"
" since when are you all 'shoot first, ask questions later'?"
" since now." Sam opened his door and got in,
" oh, really?" I leaned over, trying to shut my door, but then I fell, but Sam caught the back of my shirt before I could touch the ground. Sam leaned back and closed my door,
I smiled, I said" where we goin'?" I looked at my brothers,
" we are going to talk to someone, while you stay in the car like a good kid." I huffed, then sat back,
" why can' I go?"
" because I said so." I huffed, pouting, then I stared out the window.

We were outside the girl's house, Dean said" stay in the car, Hazel."
He rubbed my head and then got out, Sam said" see you in a few." He got out and then they walked to the door, I sat back and then laid down, I fell asleep.

I woke up when I heard the trunk of the back open, I rubbed my eyes and then got out to see Dean and Sam. Sam said" we cannot let that Hailey girl go out there."
" what are we gonna tell her-- she can't go into the woods because of a big, scary monster?"
" yeah."
" her brother's missing, Sam. She's not just gonna sit this out. No, we got with her, we protect her, and we keep our eyes peeled for our fuzzy predator friend."
" so finding dad's not enough? Now we got to babysit, too? What?"
" nothing." Then dean turned around and saw me, he nodded at the car, I crawled back in,
I said" where we goin?"
" we're going into the woods, if we aren't back in 2 days, we'll come back the next, just stay with the impala."
I whimpered, then looked at Sam, Sam said" we'll be back, don't worry." I said" b-but w-what if you turn out like daddy?" Sam and Dean looked at each other,
" we won't. We aren't ever leaving you."
Dean said" yeah, we'll always be here."

It's the next morning, We drive up to where the girl was.
Dean said" stay in the car, don't get out." I nodded,
Sam said" we'll be back tomorrow." He patted my shoulder and then they got out.

It was nighttime, I was thinking a lot, and I didn't like it. I sat up and looked into the woods,
I said" dingo... Winnie... Wendigo.." uh-oh. I looked at the forest, the monster is a Wendigo. Sam and Dean brought guns, that's not going to help! I whimpered, please be okay, please be okay. I fell asleep.
I woke up, it's the next morning, I remembered I put flares in the bag when they weren't looking. That'll work. Wendigos don't like fire, it's the only thing that can kill them. I sat in the impala, waiting, they'll come back, they always come back. I fell back to sleep.

I woke up to see it was nighttime again and my brothers in the front seat. I sat up and looked at the two, Sam was driving.
I said" when have you let Sam drive?" Dean said" since now. Get up here."
I crawled into the front and sat between them,
" you were gone for longer than 2 days."
" no we weren't."
" ya-huh."
" nu-hu."
Sam said" Dean stop arguing with a 5 year old." Dean huffed,
I said" so.. what was going on?"
Dean said" it was a wendigo. We killed it." I huffed, he smirked,
" why are you hurt?"
" because the wendigo is a bitch." Sam slapped Dean in the back of the head,
" never copy what I say, Hazel." I nodded.
