"Wait, what?" Dean Winchester stared at Castiel, disbelief in his voice.
Dean looked over at Sam who was standing next to him. He also looked like he didn't believe what the Angel was saying. Dean leaned up against Bobby's desk that was cluttered with Lore books.
Sam and Dean had arrived at Bobby's house early this morning to ask for help on this werewolf case they were about to go on. Guess that case wasn't going to happen.
"Raphael want's to overthrow God so he can rule over Heaven." Castiel also looked like he didn't believe it, but it was hard to tell since the Angel isn't the kind who shows much emotion.
"Last I checked God was gone." Bobby chimed in.
Dean could've sworn he saw a small grin on the Angel's face, which only made Dean more confused.
"God is back. He sent a sign."
"Okay Cas, you're giving us more questions than answers." Dean said, almost glaring at Cas.
Castiel then proceeded to tell them about the sign, and Megan.
Everyone in the room stared at Cas, until Sam finally spoke up. "So, what's so special about this girl?" has asked.
Dean could tell that he seemed a bit angry. Both he and his brother hated it when kids were involved in this Angel crap. It just seemed unfair.
Castiel stared for a moment, either not wanting to share or just pausing for dramatic effect. "This girl, she was chosen by God to fight the evil that was on Earth. She has Angel powers and it is her destiny to stop whatever wants to destroy the Earth or destroy God."
"So, like Buffy?" Dean asked, being serious for once.
"Who?" Castiel asked, not knowing the TV show reference.
"You know that whole 'one girl chosen to fight the vampires, the demons, and the forces of darkness'?"
Castiel remained silent.
"Never mind." Dean mulled things over in his head, trying to connect all the puzzle pieces. "So, let me get this straight, Raphael wants to kill Megan because if she dies then there is no one left besides the Angels to defend Big Daddy. Man, he put his life in a fourteen year-olds hands instead of half the Angel population. Dude, he totally dissed you guys." Dean let out a small laugh before going back into serious mode.
"But why her?" Sam asked, crossing his arms as he waited for an answer.
"The Lord works-"
"I swear to God, if you say 'in mysterious ways' I will kick your ass." Dean stood upright and walked over to stand right in front of the Angel. "Now I'm not gonna let some Teenage Mutant Ninja Angel go slitting some innocent girl's throat. No kid should be a part of this Apocolypes crap, but if they are, I'm not gonna let them die."
"That's actually what I came to ask you. I need help to watch over this girl. She has no idea about any of this yet and I want her to be protected. You two can watch over her while she's at school while I fend off Raphael and his Angel followers."
"We're in." Dean said without even thinking.
Sam nodded. Dean knew he would do it. He would do anything to redeem himself for starting the damn thing in the first place.
"So, what exactly are we protecting her from?" Sam asked, pouring out more and more questions.
"Demons, Angels, pretty much every supernatural thing out there wants her dead." Castiel looked down at the floor, clearly shaken by the thought. "God's asked me to protect her, out of all other Angels. And I won't let him down.
Sam and Dean nodded while Bobby took a seat at his desk. "Well, if you need any help with anythin' I'll be right here, like I always am." Bobby said, stacking up some of his Lore books.
"When do we start?" Dean asked.
"Now."
