Heaven's War
Disclaimer: I don't own Supernatural or any of the characters.
This story takes place about 3 weeks after 'The French Mistake'. This story is centric around my ideas of Heaven's Civil War. It's mostly about Castiel and Raphael but Sam and Dean will most likely appear in this story. R&R please. Thanks for reading.
Raphael flew down from Heaven and was at his destination in an instant. He'd grown tired of the war up there. He just wished he could've ended it weeks ago! But his enemies played him like a fool! Like a child! But he would have his wish soon. He wanted Castiel dead and he was going to get his wish.
He walked closer to the window. The first step of his new plan was here. The night Castiel bested him for the first time in this war he'd left his lieutenant trapped in the unreal reality. It was his punishment for letting his enemies trick him and let them get an advantage in this civil war. If he could he'd let him rot in there but he needed a trained assasin and tracker to help him with his plan.
He raised his hand and focused his power on the window. The red symbol appeared on the window and he could feel the portal opening. He focused more of his power on it and the light of the symbol intesified. The window suddenly smashed and the figure of Virgil's vessel landed on the ground, with a grunt from Virgil.
Raphael stood over him. He waited a few seconds for Virgil's wounds to heal completely and for him to look up at him.
Finally Virgil looked up at him. Raphael stared him down. Their weren't many people that scared Virgil but Raphael was certainly one of the few that did. Obviously even in his new vessel, Virgil knew it was him
"Get up, Virgil!" Raphael snapped. Virgil quickly scurried to get back to his feet. When he did he brushed all the glass of his coat, stood straight and gave Raphael a respectful bow. Raphael remained silent and waited for Virgil to speak. Finally he did. "Sir," He said, "Thank you for releasing me." "Do not thank me!" Raphael snapped, "If i had any other choice i would have left you in that illusion of a realm to ROT! I trusted you to be my right hand soldier and you failed in your first important mission! You let Castiel and Balthazar play me like a fool!"
"But..sir," Virgil stammered, "I do not understand. You pulled the Winchesters out and they had the key to the Weapons. I trust you retrieved it from them?" Raphael stared at him with a cold glare and reached into his Armani suit jacket pocket. Since the night only weeks ago he was fortunate enough to find a new vessel. A strong male vessel of a Navy Seal. He was just glad he was finally out of that female vessel that Balthazar had called him 'honey' for.
He pulled the fake key he took from the Winchesters and showed it to Virgil. "This key you mean!" He said, in a tone full of rage and humiliation, "This key is about as useless to me as you were! This key is not a key to Heaven's Weapons but to a Bus Station locker! While you were in that fake realm, chasing the Winchesters and their decoy key, Balthazar was handing over all of the Weapons to Castiel! Because of your failure and stupidity it has actually become possible for him and his followers to win this war!" He shouted the last part loudly making Virgil take a step back. He looked down at his feet. He couldn't believe he had been so stupid.
Raphael breathed heavily and tried to calm down before he killed Virgil. He really wanted too, but he had released him for a reason and it would do no good to smite him now.
"But," The Archangel said, "I am willing to give you one last chance to redeem yourself and to make an actual contribution to help me and our true leader, our brother Michael and the results we all want. Michael and Lucifer freed from Hell, the final battle and Lucifer and Humanity dead like they both deserve to be."
"What are your orders, sir?" Virgil said, relieved that he had another chance. Raphael handed him a small, folded up piece of paper. "You are to find these 3 creatures and you only have 48 hours to do so."
Virgil unfolded the piece of paper and looked at the names of the three creatures and looked back to Raphael. "Sir, these are extremely powerful creatures. They are much more powerful than me."
Raphael smiled, "Well, i wouldn't be complaining if they were to destroy you. But you have nothing to worry about. They no longer have their sources of power. You are to find them, do not harm them, and when you have found them you are to contact me. Understood?"
Virgil nodded quickly and said "Yes sir." He gave a polite bow. He didn't like idea of meeting these 3 creatures but he didn't want to end up back on Raphaels bad side. He feared that more.
"And Virgil," Raphael said, "2 more things. Do not let Castiel or any of his army find you doing these things. And... do not fail me again because i will not be so merciful a second time."
And then Raphael flew away disappeared in front of Virgils eyes with a fluttering sound of wings. Raphaels last words sent chills down his spine. He just hoped he could find these 3 creatures in time. Without getting his wings fried and smited.
By them or Raphael.
In this story, my version of the different universe is it being a fake world. Balthazar created the universe when he cast the spell in The French Mistake. The realm exists for as long as anyone exists inside it, so now that Virgils out the different world doesn't exist any more.
I hope you enjoy my story. Please review. Healthy criticism welcome. Thank you!
