So I don't know where this came from whatsoever but like it won't leave me alone until I get it out of my mind! Oh and this is gonna be a Gabriel in charge fic!


They couldn't believe it. They were in Heaven and it was somewhat nicer since they had been their last. The Winchesters had seen many things in their lives. They had fought monsters, other various creatures that go bump in the night, they had met Lucifer, they had even met more than one angel, heck they even helped put a stop to the whole apocalypse. But this was different.

They were in heaven, and it wasn't the heaven they had been in before either. This one was brighter and better. It wasn't bleak and bland and scary. No it was bright and happy, and angels were singing, and just a better place than before. And they had a feeling it was from the one person they thought wouldn't be most likely to fix things that were that bad. The one archangel who had given them a 'porno' before he had 'died'.

"Nice isn't it? Not quite what it used to be like but it's getting there"

Sam and Dean spun around and Gabriel was right behind him, along with Michael. At first they had thought that the elder Archangel would have a problem with him taking charge but they were surprised. Ever since Gabe had gotten him out of the cage he had been quite content to just sit back and watch, along with Adam of course. The angels were wearing what most of the others were, white robes and sashes and stuff, giant wings behind them.

"So you wanna tour or what?"

They nodded enthusiastically and the angels chuckled. Michael soon excused himself saying something about Adam, healers, and armory. But Gabriel seemed all for the tour. He took them to the armory first where they met Balthazar polishing swords. The younger angel grumbled and looked up for a moment before setting back to work.

Gabriel chuckled, "Don't mind him, he's just angry that he got in trouble for stealing from the armory. You missed a spot bro"

They ran out the door as another shield sailed past their heads. They were led to the choirs, and then to the healers. Adam was helping to bandage someone up while complaining to Michael to 'shut up and don't rush me' but the elder archangel kept poking him in the back until he would reach back and smack him.

"I'm sorry but I'm afraid Mike has officially adopted Adam as his younger brother. There's no way your going to get him back any time soon."

Adam scoffed and looked up from his job of wrapping an angel's arm.

"You know if I knew this would have happened after I said yes to Mike I would have said no"

"No you wouldn't have"

"What ever helps you sleep at night bro"

They chuckled and left as Michael and Adam began to bicker back and forth. They went to the libraries next. Two young female angels, quiet little things, were sitting in the back surrounded by scrolls. One was reading while the other wrote. They were so engrossed in their work they didn't even look up.

"These are the time twins or at least that's what I call them. They write people's futures."

The twins hushed them to which Gabriel quietly apologized and led them out and to a darker dome type of structure. Inside were many angels. Some with lightning bolts, others making snowflakes, others with pails of water. They looked through one of the window things and below they could see the part of Earth they were focused on.

"This is where we make the weather."

There was a loud explosion and people ducked before looking over. A younger angel, wings barely the size of Dean's arm, was rubbing at his head while an older one was waving his hands as if burnt. Healers ran in to help (Adam one of them) the youngster yelped and an argument broke out but was quickly dissipated into nothing. Gabriel raised an eyebrow and led them out. They made their way to a forest.

Along the way someone started yelling their names. They stopped and turned just in time to see a little blur run into Gabriel. The archangel huffed at the impact but chuckled and ruffled the kid's hair. The kid smiled and took a step back. Dean was immediately amazed at how familiar the child was. He had the same short hair and nothing else was different except for the short robes the kid wore and the sky-blue sash wrapping around his shoulder. The kid stepped back and held up a strange-looking instrument. Dean and Sam didn't know what it was but the smile that broke out on Gabriel's face made them know it was important.

"How did you find this?"

The kid looked down at his feet and played with the edge of his wing.

"I've always known where it was but it was broken so I waited till I got it all fixed until I gave it back"

Gabriel laughed and looked at the instrument in his arms before scooping the giggling kid up. That's when it clicked in Dean's mind, he knew why this kid was so familiar.

"Ezekiel?"

The kid smiled at him and whispered something in Gabriel's ear who set him on the ground but his thumb was still rubbing the tip of his wing.

"Yep! Hey Sammy!"

"How old are you kid?"

Ezekiel giggled, "I'm only 10"

"What!?"

Gabriel chuckled and pulled Ezekiel back into his side.

"That's a hard one to explain. You see his vessel was older than him but he's only a child. Just a youngling. One that should have known better than to try to help heal someone when they aren't healed themselves."

Ezekiel gasped and pulled himself away from them, "Ok I deserved that but man I didn't know Raph would be so mad"

They watched as he rubbed his bottom and Gabriel chuckled at him. It was different, this side of the archangel. He was an older brother and it showed. He obviously cared for his younger siblings which was s side of him that seemed to be shining through more often since the war had ended.

"Be lucky it was him and not Michael kiddo. Speaking of Raphael weren't you and Elijah supposed to have check ups today?"

Ezekiel gave a nervous laugh before running off. Gabriel shook his head and turned to the Winchesters.

"Shall we carry on?"

It didn't take them long from there to find the gardens. Inside they met Joshua. Him and Gabriel talked and showed Dean and Sam some plants that were still in the development stage. However they got side tracked in a deeper conversation and it gave the two visitors time to simply look closer. They didn't stray off the path or anything for they didn't want to lose their tour guide but they looked up at the higher vegetation and different vines and stuff. It was truly magnificent. Then their eyes landed on a strange tree. Half white and half black (or grayish) and the leaves were plentiful and the fruit it bore was up high.

"what kind of tree is that?"

Both Gabriel and Joshua halted their conversation at the question. Dean reached a hand out and laid it upon the bark of the tree. Their was a shout of no but it came to late. Suddenly from above their was a yelp and a small figure fell from somewhere in the higher part of the tree, its fruit falling with the kid. Said child landed with a thud and a crack.

"Ah man I think I broke a wing! Gabe it really hurts. Who does this freak think he is to touch my tree?"

Gabriel tsk'd but helped the kid stand up anyway.

"Elijah what have you been told about climbing that high?"

"Ta not to.. But that's where it fruits the best"

The Winchesters watched as Gabriel rubbed his hand along the small wing until Elijah gave a tiny yelp.

"OK squirt you need to see Raph. Good luck explaining this one to him"

Elijah grumbled but ran out of the gardens none the less. Gabriel chuckled at him as he left.

"That's Elijah. One of the youngest along with Ezekiel and Cas. And that Dean-o is the Tree of Life, Elijah protects it. I'm sorry to have to cut this tour short but a certain mischief-making angel pair are together once more and they are up to no good."

Gabriel was gone within a blink of an eye. Joshua chuckled at them and they noticed slight differences in the man. He smiled more and moved more.

"I do believe he is headed to Raphael's. Then there is the speech. If you would like I can take you to Raphael's and the rest is just following the crowd. They nodded and Joshua led them to Raphael's. Along the way they saw many angels running and flying preparing things for something. There was s youth choir practicing on a ledge and weather angels were painting the sky.

"They are preparing for later"

They nodded and followed in silence. They came to a structure with Gabriel out front holding the same two young angels in the air by the scruff of their robes. Elijah's wing was still in an awkward position and Ezekiel was trying to pry the hand off of his robes. Joshua chuckled at them gaining the elders attention.

"I see they aren't going willingly"

"When have they ever? Bring them in here Gabe"

Joshua left them with the others and they followed as Gabriel drug the kids into the room. Raphael had his back to them picking at tools on one of the shelves at the wall.

"How'd you break you wing this time Eli?"

"I fell out of a tree"

Raphael turned around and nodded at the Winchesters in acknowledgement. Gabriel was still beside them with Ezekiel in a tight grip. It was amazing watching Raphael work. He was just, there was no word to describe it. When he pulled the top of Elijah's robes down to get at his wing better the two humans took in a breath. On the kids back was a large tattoo of a tree. It showed the life and death and something written in Enochian throughout it. Raphael looked up at them when they gasped and followed their line of sight.

"Oh that's just to show that he is the guardian of the Tree of Life. You should see it when the tree grows now that's a sight to see"

Elijah looked over his shoulder the best he could and tried to shuffle off the table but Raphael turned back just in time and gave his uninjured wing a tug.

"Not so fast kid"

Elijah stopped and grumbled. Sam and Dean exchanged looks at the exclusive inside view they were getting in the works of the angelic family. They stood by and watched as Ezekiel was exchanged for Elijah and the youngster pulled something out of his pack and handed it to Raphael as a peace-offering. Then as the older healer laughed and took the object. He pulled the sleeve of the robe up and revealed a tattoo the length of the kids arm.

"You see when someone is assigned to protect something some of the essence of it is either absorbed into a tattoo or a charm."

It didn't take long before Ezekiel and Elijah were running off together again and the archangels began to walk towards the newly built ledge stage thing, motioning for the Winchesters to follow. They walked together to the gathering angels. They parted and stood in silence as they passed by. As they got up on the stage Raphael went to stand beside Michael, Adam, another angel with a weird tattoo of a lightning bolt on his arm, Elijah, and Ezekiel. The latter of the group waved his hand at them to hurry up and soon they found themselves standing beside the kid, all the eyes of angels on them.

Gabriel took a deep breath and looked at Michael. The elder smiled at him and everyone watched as they walked together to stand in front of the crowd.

"My brothers and sisters. I am here to tell you that I am handing over the charge of heaven and its host to my bother Gabriel. May he be a better guide then I"

They clapped as Michael grasped arms with Gabriel and a blue light emitted from their hands and swirled around them. Once it was done Michael went to stand back next to Adam with a grin on his face. Gabriel turned back to everyone and rubbed the back of his head.

"Brothers Sisters. I'm not very good at giving speeches and I'm not going to make a bunch of ridiculous promises. But I have one message that is on everyone's mind. The War is over"

Dean and Sam looked as everyone cheered and clapped.

"Home was destroyed in the process and we lost many great people. But their deaths will not be in vain and will not be forgotten. Together we can rebuild and start anew but it will take time and we can not do it alone. If we work together we can restore our home to its once high glory it was."

Dean looked down at Ezekiel as the kid nudged him in the side. They made eyes contact and he pointed at Gabriel. Looking back up they noticed the archangels eyes on them.

"But we could not end this war with out the help of humans. Samuel and Dean Winchester would you please step forth."

They looked around at the smiling faces and Ezekiel and Elijah shoved them forward.

"WE would like to thank you for your sacrifices for helping end the war that we started. Elijah Ezekiel if you would."

Gabriel waved a hand and the other archangels came to stand beside the Winchesters. The younglings came walking forth with a pillow of clouds on which held two small golden rings. Michael and Raphael each picked on up and placed them on their heads whispering in Enochian.

"Samuel and Dean Winchester. For showing the truth behind humanity and showing that you can remain strong even in the hardest of times we thank you as a whole. You have proved yourself worthy many a time. Please welcome the newest of saints to our family"

And that's how the war ended. Heaven was in the process of being restored to its former glory and Gabriel became the ruler he was meant to be. God could finally rest in peace without worrying.
