Gabriel was sitting with Isobel playing with her blocks when she suddenly sat up straight and looked at him with wide eyes. He knew that look.

"What is it sweetheart?" He asked gently pulling her onto his lap.

Isobel frowned at him before she spoke. "Scared." And with that she turned on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck. Gabriel stood carrying his niece with him to go find Rose and Bobby. They needed to call Dean and Cas back. Something was obviously going on.


Castiel watched as Dean walked into the motel room and collapsed on their bed. He smiled at the man, even though they had just spent the night cleaning out a vampire nest he still managed to look sexy. He didn't know how it was possible. Castiel still found these feelings and emotions he got when he looked at Dean strange. He had felt similar when he was an angel but they were muted. Now he felt them full force and on occasion they over whelmed him. He remembered the nights he had woken from nightmares to find Dean there with his arms around him. He remembered when he would burst into tears for no reason that he could see and how happy he was when he was with his family. He loved them all so much, though Dean and Isobel held special places in his heart.

The only cloud he found in his new happiness was Gabriel. He was worried for his brother. He had changed somehow when they became human. Castiel had too in some respects but Gabriel, he still wasn't quite… there. Castiel's biggest fear was that Gabriel would leave him, them, and return to heaven. He didn't want to lose his brother. But these were things he could do nothing about. At least not until Gabriel came to talk to him and as such he put them to the back of his mind and went back to staring down at the man he loved more than life itself.

Dean was lying on the bed drifting off to sleep when he felt the hairs on his arm start to rise. Cracking open his eyes he saw the reason. Cas was standing next to the bed staring down at him with a small smile on his lips.

"You know, it's still creepy, watching me sleep." He said gruffly though a smile of his own was fighting to appear on his lips.

"It is not creepy when I am doing it because I wish you to go shower. I do not want to sleep in a bed covered in vampire blood and I doubt you would wish to either." Castiel replied smirking at his hunter.

"Fine I'll take a shower." Dean replied with a roll of his eyes before his face took on a mischievous look. "But only if you join me." He said giving Cas his best bedroom eyes.

Castiel raised his eyebrows at this suggestion, it was defiantly not one he was adverse to. "As you wish Dean." He replied before pulling the man off of the motel bed and into a sweet kiss. He then pulled away and led his hunter by the hand into the small motel bathroom, not that either of them minded the size much, it just meant that they had to be closer together which in both Dean and Castiel's mind was a good thing.


Rose was working in her workshop at the back of the house when she saw Gabriel and Isobel enter. She smiled at them both, they were without a doubt the two loves of her life. But one look at Gabriel's face and that smile turned into a frown.

"What's wrong Gabriel?" She asked rushing to his side.

"I don't know. Issy just said she was scared." Gabriel replied stroking the toddlers hair as he spoke.

"Scared of what?" Rose asked with wide eyes.

"I don't know." Gabriel replied, through his mind was turning. He was thinking about what could have scared the girl. She was half an angel, therefore could feel the rise of a number of things. He just hoped it was something they knew how to deal with.

At Gabriel's reply Rose nodded and led the way to Bobby's office where both Bobby and Crowley were working.

"What's up?" Bobby asked as he saw the three come through the door and taking the situation in with a glance.

"Something's coming. Something not good." Rose replied, taking Isobel from Gabriel's arms so he could explain more.

"Isobel felt something rise." Gabriel said plainly, he didn't explain that this was in actual fact what he had deduced from the toddler. He knew he was right in that.

"What do ya mean she felt it? How could feel it?" Bobby asked confused by Gabriel's words. At that Crowley rolled his eyes. Had he truly forgotten what the child was?

"She is a Nephilim Bobby. Half an angel. There are things she'll be able to feel rise that no one else left on earth will be able to." He said to the older man.

"Okay. So what can angels feel rise?" Bobby asked those surrounding him though when he had finished the sentence all eyes turned to the former archangel.

"The list isn't long, but might take a while to go through." Gabriel replied sitting down by the desk and pulling a pad and pen to him so he could write the list.

Rose looked over his shoulder as he wrote and at the last name she closed her eyes. Eve. Oh god no. don't let it be Eve. How in the hell would they defeat her without an angel to take them time traveling?

"Who the hell is Eve?" Bobby asked reading the list. Surprisingly it was Crowley who answered.

"The mother of all monsters." He replied quietly, his face having gone a shade paler.

"Balls." Bobby muttered looking back down at the short but concise list.


Castiel and Dean were sleeping when Castiel's phone went.

"Yes?" he asked groggily after reaching out and answering it.

"Hey bro. look you need to come back." Gabriel's voice said down the line, much more awake than Castiel's was.

"Why?" Castiel asked confused, though Gabriel's tone was waking him up somewhat.

"Cos Isobel felt something rise."

This sentence caused Castiel to sit up straight, waking him up completely with wide eyes. This was not good.

"Do we know what something?" he asked his brother, knowing Gabriel had a better connection with his daughter when it came to her angel side. Not that he had told Dean this, he thought that his lover would not be best pleased with this information, though Castiel found no problems with it. He liked that his brother had such a connection with his daughter.

"No but the list isn't long." Gabriel replied tiredly.

Castiel nodded. "We will leave immediately. Have you called Sam?" he asked pulling himself out of bed and finding some clothes to put on.

"Next on the list bro."

"Good." And with that Castiel hung up and turned to Dean to find him looking at him with narrowed eyes.

"What's going on now?" Dean asked, deciding he wasn't going to get out of the bed for anything short of the 2nd apocalypse.

"We need to get back home." Castiel replied moving round the room packing for them both.

"Why?" Dean asked.

"Because I said so. Now get yourself out of bed." Castiel replied with a roll of his eyes causing Dean to laugh as he pulled himself from the covers and into his clothes. If Cas said they had to go, then they had to go. It was that simple.


Sam was in the library rubbing his eyes thinking he should really get to bed when his phone rang.

"Hello." He said as he answered, not checking caller ID.

"You need to get your ass back here ASAP." Came Bobby's gruff voice down the line.

"Why what's going on?" Sam asked, though he was packing up his books as he spoke.

"The shits hit the fan boy. That's what." And with that Bobby hung up leaving Sam just as confused as he was before the answer. Shaking his head he got into his car and drove to the dorms so he could grab his gear before he headed out.
