Inspired by a roleplay on Tumblr
I don't own supernatural, but that would be cool.
This may be a tad not so canon just to make the story work, all right? Cool.
I don't like to give anything away so read the story then the rest of the notes will be there waiting.
"Meg, that is your name right? Nice hair. I heard you were brunette but blondes are nice too." I stepped down onto the street coming nearer to her.
"You like? I was thinking about dying it black again. I prefer dark hair and that's my name, feathers. Who the Hell are you?" She questioned looking only ,impressively, vaguely alarmed.
"Oh, me? They call me Gabriel"
She smiled, so she knew the name did she? "Gabriel…the archangel or the hobo in front of Walmart?"
"Har, har, har. Cute." I replied crossing my arms, trying to show her I wasn't a threat.
" I heard you were six-feet under."
I grinned at her, so she has sources. "I could say the same bout' you princess, and do I really look homeless to you?"
She was watching me carefully waiting for a turn of events. Smart girl. "Only a bit, once you get past the wings. What do you want?"
I decided to drop that on and continue on to what I came for "Well, while my sources tell me you're pushing daisies that is clearly not the case. Sooooo, you can help me help Cassie get away from his shit storm or you can sit there and keep lookin' pretty" I shot her a smirk knowing she couldn't say no to Castiel.
"What's wrong with Clarence?"
Hmph, easier to pull her in than I thought.
And why would I help you anyway? What would I get out of it?
Nice save kiddo, almost thought she might have had a heart.
"He's in a bit of trouble with a little lady named Naomi up in the great big kingdom we call heaven. And as for what you get," I leaned in close, inches from her face "you get my time and company. Oh, and our dear little Cassie makes it out of this alive, cause lets face it, he'd never actually just ask for help. He's gotta be all cryptic and mysterious."
I've already got you pulled into this it's written all over your face pumkin'
"And afterward? If we do manage to save the princess from the evil queen, what happens to me after that?"
Deals? Is it always deals with these demons?
"You get my protection for as long as we're in this together, and well I'm sure if you play nice I could keep you and take care of you forever, and ever, and ever." I raised an eyebrow mockingly.
I watched as her face dropped a bit, "Pass. Being tortured and bossed around by Crowley has sorta ruined the whole servant-master thing for me."
I really couldn't help but laugh, "Well its a good thing I'm not really into that kind of thing now isn't it."
I finally got impatient and booped her nose, transporting us to a bus station.
" Damn, angel travel can sure come in handy. Where the Hell are we anyway?" She looked impatient and probably slightly upset that I hadn't asked her to change her location.
Can't always be the boss now can we sweety
"This is the station where our little...uh... 'Clarence' was last seen getting onto a bus, I know gross, but now we can make some assumptions. Maybe, just maybe, he has fallen. I can't see any other reason at the moment to why anyone would ride in one of those things." I glared at the bus that a homeless man was currently emptying the contents of his stomach onto.
"Fallen? How? Why?"
Aw, she looks almost genuinely concerned
She noticed I was staring and she looked away then she turn back to me and smiled "He could be your twin sweetie." she gestured to the homeless man who was now slumped against the bus."
I just rolled my eyes.
I saw the mood in her eyes change and she asked, "So, where do we start?"
Finally.
"Well we need leads and I figured being as close to him as ya' are, you'd have some clue of wh-" Out of the corner of my eye I caught plaid, oh this was just too lucky to be true. The Winchesters and Meg?
But having the Winchesters with you attracts trouble and thats why you faked your death in the first place. After all, the boys weren't like puppies. You can't keep them on a leash and tell them no when you don't want them to do something naughty.
I took her hand and transported us behind a bush "Well looky here," she took her hand back and crouched beside me looking for what I was seeing, "It would seem the Winchesters are looking for Cassie boy too." I pointed at the kiosk where the boys were chatting with a young woman.
They're gonna attract attention, or worse, get themselves hurt.
"That's probably because he has the Angel Tablet. I didn't see either of them get it and Crowley was pretty pissed, so I really have to assume that Cas was the one that had grabbed it." She looked at me waiting for my input.
Angel tablet? There's a fucking angel tablet?! Okay, calm yourself Gabe. Keep your face composed.
"Hmmm, angel tablet huh? Why don't we make a deal now. We find it, we destroy it, you live happily ever after with your prince and I watch over the two of you like a guardian angel." I raised my eyebrow waiting for confirmation that the deal was a solid.
She looked at me with confusion and doubt written all over her face, "That sounds too good to be true feathers. And it's gonna be hard to destroy it since the prophet can just glue it back together. Not to mention Crowley's looking for it."
Crowley. I'm going to have to kill him if everyone is going to keep safe.
"Well we could hide the pieces or we could get inventive with it and crush it into little tiny pieces and drink it with our chocolate milk. But destroying it, that would obviously just not do for Mr. Short British and Handsome so it's a must. I live to piss assholes like him off. But you do to, don't cha'." I gave her a quick grin but kept an eye on the boys.
I watched them turn to leave and stood up, dusting of my jeans with one hand and offering Meg a helping hand up with the other.
She shrugged and turned to me,"Anything that gets Lucky's got is a good thing to me."
"We've just got to make sure he doesn't find us. I'm under the impression he'd still wants to get a hold of ya' if he knew you were still kickin'." I turned to face her and tilted my head.
"Ding ding ding, ten points to Hufflepuff." Meg said looking back at Sam and Dean. "So do we follow Heckle and Jeckle or talk to the girl ourselves?"
I had almost forgotten about them until she mentioned it and turned back to look at them "Neither, see, Dean is clearly frustrated that she had no info and now he can't find his boyfriend. Long story short we're not getting a thing outta' them. But if you really wanted them to know that we're looking for Cas and the angel tablet, which I'm willing to bet they also want, we can go talk to them. I'm sure they just miss the hell outta' you, know I would." I grinned at her and winked.
Shes growing on me. She's not so bad for a demon, I see why Cassie like this one so much.
"Oh yeah they seemed awfully heartbroken when they saw Crowley stab me." She rolled her eyes again and returned the smile. "Besides, I didn't say talk to them I said follow them. Without them knowing. I'm sure we can spy on them pretty easily." She looked at me and raised her eyebrow. "Unless it ruffles your feathers too much."
"Why, of course not! But no, they're just gonna get into trouble or worse get in the way so..." I snapped and the boys disappeared, "We're just gonna put em' someplace safe and do this on our own."
"Uh huh…." Meg looks from the spot where Winchesters had just vanished from back to me. "So you got this all figured out already haven't you sweetheart?"
"No. Why? Does it seem like I do?"
"Yeah it does. And it makes me wonder why exactly do you need me?"
Clever girl, but I really have no damn clue what I'm doing. But she could get me a meeting with Crowley and then I could gank his ass. Oh, uhg, did I just say gank? No more hanging out with the Winchesters for you.
"You are gonna get me a meeting with someone all the while making my baby brother the happiest little angel in the whole world" I smiled, mostly to myself, at my clever response.
Meg did not return his smirk and crossed her arms. "All right look. If we're gonna work together on this you need to tell me upfront what we're doing and why we're doing it or the deal's off." She clearly really hated when people tried to use her or thought of her like she was some kind of second-class citizen.
Quick, something witty.
"You have some major trust issues sugar." I slowly let my smile fall, "Fine, I need a meeting with Crowley. My plot was my sources would tell his sources you were with me but at that time you would already be in one of my little alternate universes with your angel."
She frowned at me and gave me her best 'Oh you fucking asshole' glare.
"You have got to be shitting me. Huh, I shoulda known. You were just planning on using me to get to Crowley." She shook her head. "No thanks, that bastard already killed me once, I'm not letting him do that again." She leaned in so that her face was inches away from mine. "Next time you want to use me as bait, don't think about it. Or better yet, go screw yourself." She made sure her shoulder bumped into mine as she walked past me.
Great, you fucked up. Go get her back.
"Hey, wait."I appeared in front of her, "I won't stop you from leaving but I'm not doing this just for my benefit. I'm keeping you safe because if anything happened to you Castiel would kill me. Rip all the feathers from my wings and set fire to them. You're gonna be far far away anytime he's near and lets face it, you go out there alone and you're doomed." I brought my hands up in surrender and tried to make my eyes say 'We're friends now and I'm not gonna get you killed'.
She couldn't help the smile that grew on her face when I said Castiel's name. "…Fine, I'll stay. But we better find Clarence before Crowley finds us." Meg tilted her head in thought. "Mm maybe I should just let my 'unicorn' kill you anyway. But… I don't think I will. You might be a pain in my ass, but I'm kinda getting attached to you."
She likes you back, look at that Gabe you made a friend.
I yanked at a strand of her hair playfully "Yeah you too kiddo. Alright so I've got everything out on the table. Anything you need to tell me before we get started? Any deep dark secrets or baddies I need to look out for?"
I plopped down on a nearby bench absorbing the events of the day.
.
"Other than getting frisky after three beers and the fact that probably every demon is out for my skin, I don't think there's anything else." She smiled at me and I smiled back.
"Great, okay, now the question is, where could our sweet little Cas have gone?" I spread his arms in question, gesturing to, well, pretty much the entire world,"So we do what the boys didn't think to. We take a look at all of bus schedules for the last two hours and check all the destinations for him."
Meg nodded. "Sounds like a plan."
There will be a second chapter, I'm really hoping it will be an entire series. All depends if it gets a good reaction.
I'm not sure if I want them to be a couple, but hey what do you guys think, I'm really writing this for you anyway.
R&R please (:
It's been real, see you in a bit.
