Sorry, by mistake I uploaded Ch. 2 twice and my prologue was lost, so I should have rewrite it:( This is a re-upload of the 1st chapter. I changed the chapter a bit, I hope you like it.
When I opened my eyes, I felt like I wasn't on Earth anymore. Everything here were so smooth and bright and shining. I was back Home. My time on Earth was over.
Then, a soft hand stroked my hair. It was Him. My Father. I couldn't see His face, but I knew it was Him.
"Castiel, my good kid" He said calmly. His voice sounded like music to me. I felt happy.
"You did a wonderful job down there. But now I have to assign you another job"
"Yes, Father." I nodded. "Anything you wish." Father smiled to me. He pointed with His head down, the Earth. He noticed my questioning expression and explained.
"I know you just came back from your previous mission. But you need to understand, son. Terrible times are coming."
I nodded again, waiting for Him to say more. "You need to watch on Sam Winchester." My eyes widened.
"I thought you said he wasn't dangerous." I made a sound of disapproval at the back of my neck. "Like his irreverent brother is."
Father smiled again. "Don't be so cynical, my son. I need you to keep an eye on this kid. Both of them." He said.
"Demons want this boy. You should avert him from being dragged into the demonic side. Can you do this, Castiel?"
I nodded respectfully. "Yes, Father." I answered. "Whatever you say."
"Good." Father touched smoothly my forehead with his palm. I closed my eyes to his touch. I felt my guts being shaken. I opened my eyes and I saw a white light surrounding me. It lifted me up and then I felt I fall.
Castiel opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was an unknown ceiling. Where was he?
He tried to stand up, but a soft hand stopped him. "What do you thing you're doing? Doctor said you need some rest!"
A strict woman's voice told him. Castiel threw a glance at her. She was looking at him like she knew him very well.
The woman seemed to be annoyed and tried to pull him back at the bed. "Nick, you need to lay down! Doctor said a stroke isn't a funny thing at your age!"
Castiel seemed annoyed too. Who the hell this lady was and why she had an obsession to keep him laid down?
"Uh, listen ma'am" he started politely. "You need to let me go. I'm not your husband."
The woman looked at him like he was crazy. "Nick are you kidding?"
"I'm not Nick or whatever your husband is named. I'm an Angel of the Lord and I have a mission to perform…"
The woman seemed really terrified. "Nick what are you saying?! I'm sure this is caused by the stroke!"
Castiel stood up immediately and looked at the mirror. Who the hell was that man and why he had his body? Last time he checked, he was inside Jimmy Novak, a righteous man who had given him his body as a vessel. This new body was a bit uncomfortable for the Angel. The man was older and taller than Jimmy was, he had brown hair and eyes and had an arrogant expression on his face.
The woman was still looking at him. He turned to face her. "Look, ma'am I've this mission and I'm late. I'm sorry for your husband." Before the woman opened her mouth to make him stay, he disappeared.
"You need to watch on Sam Winchester. You need to watch on Sam Winchester."
Those words were repeating on Castiel's mind. His Father gave Him a mission and he had to perform it successfully.
He flied, invisible, among the humans, trying to track Winchesters' special aura. Each one had a different aura from the other. Sam Winchester's aura was pure and light and clean, he could easily track it, without ever losing its path.
Castiel liked Sam Winchester. He was pure and clean, just like his aura. He was always good and polite with Castiel, he never was mean or disrespectful with the Angel. Sam Winchester was praying, he believed in God. Castiel didn't find it strange that His Father wanted to protect this righteous boy.
Sam's brother, on the other hand, was a different case. Dean Winchester was a cocky, cynical man, his aura was so dark he could hardly track it. Dean Winchester's aura could easily been lost. Dean was happy about that fact, that the Angel couldn't easily track him. Castiel couldn't know his feeling about this human. He was all those cocky jokes and cocky responses and was so fucking smartass and disrespectful to Castiel. Castiel wanted so bad to punch Dean Winchester directly on his smartass mouth and make him shut forever. The Angel couldn't understand why God wanted this human to be saved. He couldn't even see a special thing on him.
After a while, the presence of an intense bright aura draw his attention.
Sam Winchester. I found you.
Castiel lowered himself until he floored to the ground, still invisible. He saw Sam's figure into a tiny apartment. He wasn't alone. A demon was with him. He flied to the window, trying to hear better what they were saying.
"Sam, drink it!" said the female demon, offering him her bloody wrist. "It makes you stronger! You can only kill Lilith-"
"Not only kill Lilith!" Sam shouted. "You want me to free Lucifer! You think I'm a dumb?"
The demon approached him and touched softly his cheek. "Do it. Please."
Sam crucified his arms on his chest. "And why should I do this?"
The demon smiled seductively. "For me." She said and grabbed his face, kissing him. Then, she put her wrist to his mouth. He sat on the bed, with her on top of his body.
Castiel loathed from the scene. He needed to find Dean Winchester immediately. What if he didn't liked him? His brother was in danger. He flied again, trying to track Dean Winchester's special aura.
Dean was riding his Baby, listening to some old classic rock cassettes on his radio. He was completely distracted from the song to notice the tall man sitting on the passenger's seat next to him. When he did, a little cry sliped from his lips.
"Hello, Dean." The man said. Dean looked curious. Who this man was and how he knew his name? how he could even get in here? The car was moving!
"It's me. Castiel" the man quickly explained. The Angel noticed the puzzled gaze of the man and sighed. "I need your help."
"My help?" Dean chuckled and looked on the road. "Since when you need my help?"
"Since now." Castiel said in a calmy voice. "Father sent me to watch on your brother. And you of course."
Dean raised an eyebrow and kept looking on the road. He remained silent, without even commenting on what the Angel said. He threw a careful glance at the Angel's appearance. He couldn't even admit to himself, he liked the old vessel.
"What happened to the previous…uh… you?" he tried to politely ask.
"Uh, my vessel" Castiel answered looking at himself. "I don't even know. I woke up and I was inside this vessel. That why I need your help. To find my old vessel."
"Okay then." Dean nodded. "Why God asked you to watch on us?"
"Where is your brother Dean?" Castiel asked innocently, like he didn't noticed Dean's question. "I thought you were keep an eye on him."
Dean sighed. "He left. We had a fight and…he left"
"About demon's blood, right?" Castiel looked directly on the hunter's green eyes. Dean looked back and nodded. "Yeah." He answered. "This demonic slut is feeding him her blood, to make him stronger but deep down I know there's something more than this. Only save us all from the ultimate slut, Lilith? Please."
"Yes, Dean, there's something more." Castiel replied. "She plans to raise Lucifer through Sam."
"WHAT?" Dean almost crushed on a tree. He pulled over at the corner of the road and looked at the face of the Angel. "Are-are you sure?"
"Definitely. I heard them. Dean…" Castiel looked intensely inside his eyes. "Will you help me? Us?"
"How?" he asked.
"First" Castiel answered "we need to find my old vessel. This one is…" he hesitated, pointing at himself. "Uncomfortable."
Dean nodded. "If I will, will you help Sam?"
Castiel nodded, closing his eyes. "That's why I am here."
Dean nodded too, agreeing to the arrangement. "Okay. I'll do it. Help you find your vessel and all. Only promise Sammy will be okay."
"He will, Dean, you can trust me. I'm the one who raised you from Perdition." Castiel mentioned.
"Yeah, I know." Dean smiled, appreciating the joke the most.
