"I must not be hearing you right, Cas. I could've sworn you told us that there is a witch and a demon working together to time jump across the time stream. Wouldn't that mean their time traveling and breaking all sorts of laws of nature?" Dean questioned, suddenly not interested in his second beer.
"Yes. You heard me correctly."
"S-So what do you want us to do?" Sam asked with widened eyes.
"Well...they aren't just time traveling...they are taking things from those times...using them...then putting them back so as to not alter the time stream completely."
"You still haven't told us what to do or why they are taking items from different times." Dean stated as he felt a headache coming on.
"I believe the next items they will be taking will be from the Arthurian time line. We need to travel back in time and prevent them from even touching these items. The next items...if I'm correct...will be the cup of life, a strand of hair from the most powerful warlock in all creation, and a piece of Excalibur. I believe they have created a new spell of some kind...I think they mean to summon and control Merlin."
"How are they gonna summon a dead guy?" Dean questioned crudely with a slight scoff.
"He isn't dead. He still lives."
"Excuse me!?" Sam shouted as he nearly fell out of his chair. Once he managed to scramble back into it he simply stared at Cas. "Merlin...THE Merlin...he still lives...he was...he was REAL!?"
"Quite real. He assisted greatly in making Arthur king."
"Well yes...I know that so...we're going back in time...do you even know if their spell will work?" Sam asked with the excitement of a child.
"It's never been done before...but yes, I suspect it has a high probability to work...and Merlin will suffer."
"So...this is a case...and we are on a witch and demon hunt...in Camelot?" Dean asked with skepticism in his eyes. "How exactly do we get there?"
"With me of course. I can travel back in time."
"Well...thank you for so casually mentioning that...but personally...I already knew that. What I meant was...how are we gonna blend in? We don't talk, walk, or even dress like them. Also...for that point in time, for anyone to take us seriously, wouldn't we have to be nobility? Last I checked we don't have a family crest like what their looking for." Dean looked to his brother for a brief moment and took a double take because Sam's jaw was dropped and in shock at how much he knew. "I love Arthurian legend. I read."
"Well...you have a point." Cas answered. "However, I will be placing a spell on the two of you to where you already know how to best explain and carry yourselves in the timeline. However, we do have to dress the part. As for the crest of nobility they will already think we are nobility."
"How is that?" Sam asked.
"Because...I will present them with a certificate of nobility that will have our own crest on it."
"What does our crest look like?" Dean asked, now mimicking Sam's excitement. Cas handed Dean the paper from his pocket and his eyes went wide with delight. It was a beautiful forest green crest with the image of an angel blade with wings coming out of the sword. "Create this on your own did ya?"
"I did, I'm very proud of it. The certificate also has a spell on it. When anyone from that timeline touches the paper they will truly believe we are the noble house Winchester. It will be as if we have always been there. Uther Pendragon will have to pass the paper all around the council so we'll be...covered...as you say. They will know as a small noble house that is still growing and has had experience with magical creatures."
"That's a lot to put into a spell on paper...how did you do it?"
"I just put a memory altering spell on it and made it specific to a timeline."
"Oh...is that all?" Dean huffed out a short laugh. "Alright, well...when do we go?"
"As soon as you are dressed." Cas snapped his fingers and they were all wearing appropriate attire.
Dean looked down at his clothes and noticed he was dressed as a noble for sure. He was wearing a forest green cape that had the crest on the back, an emerald green shirt that was accompanied with a set of armor as well as a sword on his left hip, and a dagger on his right. He also noticed that he had a necklace around his neck that held a beautiful dark green jewel. He looked down and noticed his pants were made of fine material and his boots were super comfortable. Then, suddenly he felt something atop of his head. It was a king's crown. He took in a large gasp of breath and frantically looked at Sam and noticed he was dressed as a prince. His outfit was similar to his own, but his crown was different. It was more of a circlet, and he only had one sword and no necklace. He turned his gaze to Castiel and he was dressed as what seemed to be a servant. He wore a red shirt, brown vest, blue scarf, black pants, and matching boots. "Cas...who..."
"You are to be King Dean Winchester, your brother will remain as your brother, but will be known as Prince Samuel Winchester, and I am your servant Castiel. It will give me more opportunity to move about the castle with little suspicion if I'm a servant." Cas placed a hand on Dean's forehead and muttered something in enochian, then suddenly Dean stood upright and held himself fairly. Cas repeated this action to Sam and the same thing happened. Then he placed a hand on both Sam and Dean's shoulders. "We're here...well, we're in the middle of a forest where no one can see us, but we're here."
"Okay...so...We just travel to Camelot then?" Dean asked and he noticed his speech pattern changed slightly.
"Yes, it's not far."
They traveled until they saw the gates to Camelot and both Dean and Sam were made breathless, but thankfully because of the spell Cas placed on them it didn't show. They walked up to the gates and Cas handed both guards the spelled parchment and they recognized them as a small kingdom the instant they touched the paper and they continued forward.
