Well, here's Chapter Three. This chapter took me a while to write. But it's here now.
Another Disclaimer: I do not own the Supernatural characters, they go to Kripke. The original characters and plotline totally go to me, though.
"You didn't have to try and scare the poor wolf off." Charlie whispers to him as they set their towels and umbrellas on the sand. Gabriel is putting up the umbrella for him and Castiel, sliding it down deeply into the sand until it's standing upright on its own.
"He knows, Char." Gabriel sighs, giving the two whispering wolves a long and searching look. "I have to make sure that even if he's not going to talk to Raphy, he's not going to spill what he saw to anyone who isn't in the know about our kind."
"Like with what happened with me and Dorothy?" Gabriel nods, setting the cooler in front of the umbrella and in between the two towels. "I wonder what happened to that Ruby chick who told us."
"Don't ask," the short alpha says in a clipped voice as he grabs the umbrella Charlie dropped, setting it up easily and quickly, "no one's going to tell you. Let's head into the water. It's been a while since I went for a rather salty swim."
Charlie snorts, rolling her eyes as she slides off her shorts and t-shirt to reveal the solid red one piece underneath it. "You were in the ocean last night. We saw you during our stroll." A smile crosses the blonde's lips before water smacks her in the face, a smirk now on Gabriel's face as Castiel glares at the recently emptied water bottle in his hand.
"You little bitch!" the lynx growls out, taking a swipe at Gabriel as he runs off towards the water laughing, quickly taking chase. Castiel just sighs, rolling his eyes as he grabs another bottle of water and taking a swing from it. He shrugs at the questioning looks of the two wolves, sharing a look of his own with Dorothy.
"The two of them are trouble when they're together." Dorothy simply states, moving to lay down on her towel. "If either of them gets tripped, take a picture. I want to mount it on a wall." Castiel laughs, setting his bottle down and heading towards the water himself.
Sam glares at his brother, not believing what the older wolf is saying. "I'm going to the house tonight, whether you want me to or not. I might be an omega, but I'm not weak."
"I heard that, with the exception of Cas and now that Raphael chick, the whole lot of those Shurleys are alphas." Dean pushes out, a growl rumbling low in his throat. "You might take on an alpha or two, maybe three, but a whole bunch of shifters we don't even know the species of? I'm not taking the chance of letting my baby brother go into that place!"
"Than come with me if you're so worried!" Sam snaps back, eyes flickering to a dark yellow as Dean snaps his mouth shut. "That way, you'll know exactly what happens in that house!"
"Seriously, Sam? What do you want from these people?!"
"I want answers, Dean. This is the only way I'll get them." Dean huffs, a frown on his face as he thinks about what Sam said before nodding.
"Fine, I'll go with you. Only to protect you, though. You can't trust what you don't know."
"Alright."
"I don't understand why you agreed to let him talk to me, brother." Raphael states, her long tail flicking droplets of water out of the pool hidden under his house. Her eyes are zeroed in on the large opening under the surface, watching their brother and father swim in from the ocean. "It's not like I want to meet him, anyways."
Gabriel sighs, unfolding from his chair to sit next to the transformed woman in front of him to wrap an arm around her shoulders. "He knows that we're siblings, and would've asked me who knows how many questions about you if he didn't get the chance to meet you. Besides, it'll be easier to keep our species protected if we find out what he knows. Wolves aren't known to keep their mouths shut."
Raphael just nods as she goes quiet, moving over to give their older brother more space when he goes to sit next to her. He silently nods to the two of them, getting two small and forced smiles in return as their father comes up and sits on the seat across from them. Gabriel stands up, heading to the stereo to put on some noise to fill the quiet that fills the room. He just hopes that wolf shows up soon, Castiel is probably bored as he waits and Gabriel hates it when there isn't something that'll distract him.
Like he had hoped would happen, footsteps comes down the steps that are hidden behind a bookshelf in the library. Gabriel frowns, turning to the staircase as he hears not two but three pairs of feet coming down the stone steps. He can hear Castiel talking to whoever's behind him, two people laughing in response to what he said. Who else came to the house? His answer enters the room as Castiel leads Dean and his younger brother inside. The younger blue-eyed merman immediately goes to the pool, sitting on the seat next to Chuck as his legs meld together into the dark scales of his tail.
The two wolves stand at the entrance of the stairs, eyes wide as they stare at the relaxing in the pool. Gabriel crosses his arms, narrowing his eyes at the taller alpha before him.
"Shit, Sammy, you were right."
