Hey everyone!
A/N: So yeah, chapter two, there we go. Characters are still OOC and there's still mistakes.
This new life of mine
Chapter 2: Some old faces I hadn't seen in a long time.
I had never talked to them and they all thought I was mute but it was fine. They kind of were my bodyguards in some way. I felt a little bit safer with them, at least I wasn't alone. Day passed and still I didn't talked. I was afraid that someone would recognized my voice if I spoke out loud. So I shut my mouth.
One day a man walked in the bar with a black hoodie that covered part of his face. But I saw him, I saw his sharp teeth and yellowish eyes. As I looked at his hands, I saw the pointy nails and turned to my pool buddies. It was a werewolf, a freaking werewolf! Why? Why now, why here? Why me? Oh dad, please… I thought.
The two others didn't seemed to give a fuck. And there I was, all stressed and afraid. Would this be my life, now? I could just go there and tell him to kill me. It would be easy and all my worries would be gone. But Metatron would probably bring me back. Shit, I was stuck.
I looked at the two players at the table and sat on a chair, facing the bar where the werewolf sat. I couldn't get my eyes awayt. What if he tried to killed people? What if he was part of Metatron army? So I closed my eyes and listened to the man.
He ordered a drink and I heard glass breaking sound. I opened my eyes to see pieces of glass everywhere on the bar counter. He stood up and took the barman by the neck and throw him on the other side of the room. He walked to him and jumped on his chest as his hoodies fell from his head.
I hide myself in a corner with my two friends and pray silently. Jay put a hand on my shoulder and I jumped.
"Don't be scared. We are here." He told me as his girlfriend took his other hand.
I nodded slowly and closed my eyes, not wanting to look at the scene. People ran outside the bar while I sat there, paralyzed. The barman screamed until he let go of his last breath and the werewolf growled as he fed himself. Then out of nowhere I heard gun shots. Then the werewolf was down, screaming on the floor until there wasn't any other sound.
"I'll go check around if there is other victims." The shorter man said as two men walked in the bar with their guns in their hands. "You stay inside to ask the witnesses."
I opened my eyes slowly again and looked at their outfit. They looked like federals… but once I looked at their face I jumped again. Not them…
The taller one looked around slowly and frowned. He finally realized that we were the last one here and he walked to us. I hide myself while the two stood up.
"I'm agent Jones. Could I ask you a few questions?" He asked.
The two of them nodded while I stayed in the back.
"Can you tell me what did you two saw?" He asked.
"Well, this man took the barman and throw him then he jumped on him." Jay said as fast as he could.
"He had sharp teeth! He ate him alive!" Logan said.
He nodded and looked at me. He couldn't see my face and that was great, because I didn't want to have them on my back. I didn't want to have to do anything with the Winchesters again. Well not until I got my powers back.
"Um, sir. Richard won't talk to you, he is mute. Well we don't even know what is name is, he never told us. We only name him because he got a face for that name." Jay explained.
Sam nodded but still looked towards me. He had probably recognized me.
"Can you turned, sir?" He asked.
I turned slowly and looked up. A surprise look appeared on his face and left as soon as it appeared.
"You?" He whispered.
I turned again when I saw Dean walking in. And behind him another figure walked in the bar: Castiel.
"Found nobody else." He said.
Sam nodded and pointed at Castiel, then he looked at my two friends.
"He can understand him, would you give us a moment?" Sam asked.
"He speak with his hands?" Jay asked.
"Yes." Sam answered.
Castiel tilted his head on one side.
"I don't." He started to say but Sam cut him as he nodded to the angel. "Oh yes, I do…"
Jay and Logan nodded and walked away but still stayed close to look at Castiel. Dean looked at me with a frown and I looked at Sam for a second. His look had change in a moment. Now the look on his face looked… not nicer but… protective? Castiel on his side had a smile on his face.
"Gabriel." He whispered. "I knew you couldn't be dead."
"Yeah, it's great that you aren't dead." Dean suddenly said and Sam looked at him with a surprised look. "Then I'll be able to kill you with my own hands."
My eyes opened wide and I moved slowly backwards. Sam looked at me with sorry eyes put a hand on his brother's shoulder.
"Look at him, Dean. He's scared. Stop this." He said as Dean sighed.
"He is faking it. He's the trickster." Dean said. "You won't get yourself out of this one."
I looked at Sam and without even noticing it my lips started to move but without making any sound. Please, I tried to say. Sam got the message and looked at my brother.
"Cas, bring him to the Impala. I'll take care of Gabriel." Sam said as Dean sighed once again and followed Castiel.
I looked at my two friends in the back and they frowned as they saw Castiel and Dean walking away. They probably didn't understood anything by now. Sam sat in front of me and his expression soften enough for me to feel safe with the giant. Weird though, the one I was more scared about was the one who was nice with me. He waited for me to talk first.
I looked at the two others in the background and sighed. Well now they would know that I wasn't mute, I guess.
"Sam." I whispered.
Sam nodded and smiled.
"Do you remember us?" Sam asked.
I nodded as well and closed my eyes.
"I don't want to die again…" I said as I turned my head.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you." He said. "What happened?"
"It's just like they say, a man walked in with his face covered by his hoodie then ate the barman…" I answered.
"No, I mean to you. What happened to you?" Sam said.
"Luci killed me than somebody brought me back." I explained quickly.
"You look different." Sam stated and I nodded.
"I'm not an archangel anymore, Sam." I said.
He sighed and stood up. He gave me a hand and I looked a long time at it. I finally took it and I stood next to him. He suddenly hugged me tight and I stopped moving. Why was he hugging me? I never even been nice to him before, why was he being nice to me now?
"I'm sorry, Gabe." He told me.
"Why?" I whispered.
"We should have come back for you." He said.
Oh! Okay, he was feeling guilty for leaving me to my death. Well now I understood a little bit more why he was so kind. Maybe he had forgiven me.
"I should be the one to be sorry. For all I did…" I whispered in his chest.
"I forgave you a long time ago, Dean didn't but I did. And I am pretty sure Castiel did too." Sam said as he let me go.
He smiled and I returned the action then my two friends came to say hi.
"You aren't even mute!" Logan said. "You liar!"
"Um, miss. This man had his reason to keep his voice silence." Sam cut her.
"Pfff, anyway what your name?" Jay asked.
Wait they were angry because of that? Come on… It not like I had hide my whole identity and life. Oh wait… I indeed hide it all. Well I guess they could be mad.
"Jack. He's name is Jack." Sam said just before we heard the police siren. "I think the officers will need some witnesses for the crime scene. I suggest you two stay here."
"Then why can he go?" Logan said.
"He's an old agent. The rest is none of your business." Sam said as he took my arm.
He softly pulled on it and I followed him to the car. He wasn't a good liar… But I was out of there with him as a bodyguard. I would be safe, for the moment at least. Sam and Dean went in front and Castiel and I sat in the back. I turned to the window and looked at the moving landscape. Castiel tapped on my arm after a moment and smiled at me.
"Don't worry, we are here to help you." Castiel told me.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"It's probably the first time that you are human, right? I've been human before and the Winchesters can help you too." Castiel said.
"Thanks, brother." I said.
I turned my head once again without a smile and closed my eyes as I let my head rest on the back of the seat.
"Come on Gabriel, you can do it." Lucifer said as I stood up for the second time.
One foot at the time, it was easy. I walked slowly towards my big brother and fell in his arms. He took me and put me on his shoulders.
"You did it!" He said with a smile. "I'm proud of you, Gabriel."
He let his wings out and we flew in the skies. I let my smaller wings out and imitated the movement his wings did. I laughed as I attached my arms to his neck as he flew faster.
We played in the skies for a time then under us, someone was shouting our name. It was Michael. Luci got down and put me down, then I took his hands.
"Lucifer, we need to talk." Michael said.
Luci growled but nodded and followed Michael as I was left behind.
I was five years old when it happened.
"You got to help me, Gabriel." Lucifer said to me as he prepared his plan.
"I won't help you take down daddy, come on Luci!" I shouted at him.
"Then you are just like the others! Blind!" He shouted as he throw me out of the room.
Then I was seventeen when Lucifer went in the cage. I ran away, yes… because of that. All heaven wanted me dead. They told me that I was the cause of Lucifer's downfall. They wanted my head so I escaped heaven and hide down on earth.
Twenty years old… And I was still a kid. That's why I turned to the trickster's powers, then the Pagan. I needed to protect myself.
