He had stolen the lives of many, nabbed countless artifacts, and evaded Death numerous times. Only two people know who this bastard is. The crook's brother and me. His brother, sadly, died many years ago. His time is up now too.

I watched as he found his way into the white house. Just a few things taken from the building could set him up for life. He carefully picked the lock to the back entrance. Little did he know that he had tripped the alarm as he did so. Within seconds Secret Service had him surrounded, that's when all hell broke loose.

Bullets were raining on the agents before they understood what was happening. They started to drop like flies while shotgun shells danced on the floor. Before a single man could fire on the burglar, he had killed all but three of them. Two of them. One.

The two men stood there, guns drawn, waiting for the other to fire. It felt like eternity before the sound of a gun rang through the room. It was neither the thief nor the agent though. I watched as the mastermind behind the robbery slumped to the floor, revealing an unseen agent holding his still smoking gun. The victim was dead within seconds.

A tear had broken free from my eye. I wiped it it away and gently picked up the bandit's soul. I held him in my arms until we reached the empty void i called home. This colorless crack divided two worlds: one of endless torment and the other of untold paradise. I could visit neither though. Cursed to roam the desolate fracture in between and and back to earth, to collect souls.

Normally I wouldn't take souls my home. Im not supposed to, but i need to see him. I want him to see me. It's been so long since we last saw each other, I wonder if he still remembers me. Even if he does, he probably wont recognize me. Ive lost so much since I last saw him.

I once was a powerful being, an angel. I had powers you couldn't even imagine! And my wings, oh how i miss them. They were stripped from me along with my title, when i was cast from heaven. All of this came to pass when I rebelled against my kindred. Instead of being killed or falling, I was damned to this forsaken place. To take the place of Death.

I observed as he stood, as he looked at the blackness that surrounded him. He seemed extremely confused at first. Then he saw me. The confusion on his features morphed to a look of shock and relief. He gave me a simple smile. I gazed at his eyes for the longest time, just taking in the way his emerald eyes would twinkle when he shifted. We were so lost in each others eyes, all planes of reality could have crashed in on us and we would remain unchanged.

I then uttered the two words i had been yearning to voice for many years.

"Hello Dean"

I bet you read that in Cas' voice :)
