AN: It has been a while. This is Chapter 4. I am putting a hold on all stories. I realize I cannot do more than one story at a time or I will lose interest. As of right now, this will be the only story I will be working on. I am aiming for a good 20 or so chapters, but we will see. Please read and review, what you like, and what you would like to see next. Any suggestions? PM me and I'll take them into consideration. Thank you. Have a great rest of your day!
P.S. I'm not sure if I was ever clear on the timeline. Castiel appears in Season 4, while John died in Season 2. I've merged the timelines a little bit, Season 1-2 really consisted of killing Azazel while 4 was to stop the 66 seals from breaking. So, the next few chapters will be a mix of them.
Chapter 4: Who's Lilith?
Sam and Dean found themselves staring at what their father called The Colt. Hand crafted to kill all supernatural creatures. He even had the recipe to make more bullets. "This will kill Azazel." Sam nodded to himself, smiling slightly.
Dean nodded and twisted it in his hands. "We just have to find him. We can summon him?" Dean mused, looking to his brother. Sam shook his head and responded, "No. He'll know something is up. We have to track him." A deep voice startled them, making them jump. "We do not have time for that."
The two spun around to see a man with dark black hair, and brown eyes. "Who are you?" Sam asked, giving the man a once over. "Michael." Dean raised a brow and put two and two together. Cass being around and then a random pop-in? "The archangel?" He asked skeptically. Michael nodded.
"That's right Dean. I have a smart vessel." The brothers reared back confused by the term vessel. "Vessel?" Sam asked. "You are the body he is meant to possess." Cass's voice had everyone looking to him. "Ah. Castiel." Bella looked between everyone and made her way towards Sam and Dean. She looked to Michael. "You cannot have his body." She stated firmly. To be possessed by an angel? Bella remembered the talk she had with Cass about once you're let in, the human soul returns to heaven, or in some cases the Angel fully takes over. Michael cocked his head to the side. This human was a weird one, he liked her. He also wanted to test the angel, to see if he was really fulfilling what he was meant to. "Then maybe I'll have yours instead?"
He stalked towards them, his eyes trained on Bella. Cass appeared in front of her, his angel blade in his hand. "You know as well as I do, that Isabella Swan Winchester is not your vessel. I do not take threats to her lightly Michael. You should know that. I do not take threats to any of the Winchester's lightly." He stated in a cool voice. Bella shivered lightly. He did that voice again, like with the Cold One's.
Michael smirked and stepped back. "I see. You're on top of your game." He complimented. Cas gave him a small nod. "Why are you here Michael?" He asked, putting his angel blade back in his coat. Bella, Dean, and Sam went to the couch and sat. Michael smiled and looked around the house, touching small pictures here and there.
"Lilith." He answered. "Impossible." Cass snapped. Bella and Cass met eyes and Bella looked between the two angels. "Wait. Who's Lilith?" She asked. Michael turned towards her and her brothers. "The first demon Lucifer created. She's here to free him." Dean stood shaking his head and waving his hands about. "Free the devil? That's a thing?" He looked to the two angels waiting for an answer. "Of course Dean. It's a thing. There are over 600 seals and Lilith needs to break just 66 of them to set Lucifer free. She's only been out for three days and 1 seal has already been broken." Cass took in a deep breath. "I didn't hear anything about this on angel radio." Michael turned smiling.
"Of course not, you've been playing human. Well now you know." Dean ran a hand through his hair tiredly. "Okay, so which seals have been broken?" Michael sniffed and wrinkled his nose. "One was broken in Hell. It is when a righteous man sheds blood in hell, meaning he has tortured others to end his suffering. The next one we don't know, but there is one called The Rising of the Witness, which means ghosts of the people who witnessed the supernatural will rise. It is said that she is going after hunter victims." The siblings each looked at each other and nodded.
"Well, off we go. We need to catch this bitch and find Azazel." Dean stated, making his way around the two Angel's and outside. Bella and Sam followed after their brother with ease. Castiel gave Michael a wary look, following the humans. Michael watched from a distance smiling. "Maybe Earth has a chance?" He questioned and disappeared in a snap.
Sam was already on his laptop looking for cases similar to that of Lilith's doing. "Found something in Georgia. Sources say people are rising from the dead. Many people think it's a government thing but this seems about right." Sam showed Bella the clippings and Bella hummed in thought. "Ok, so let's say we do find this Lilith. How the hell do we kill her? Sam look up the lore on anything about Lilith. Dean, how are we going to put those souls to rest?" She questioned. Her and Dean made eye contact in the rearview. "We'll figure out something. This is all types of fucked up. So technically, this seal is already broken. How did it go with Cass?" He asked. Bella shuddered slighty, not due to fear, but the thought of Cass. "We got a few leads. Demons, and something with a Raphael. I didn't get a chance to ask Cass about it. We met some Cold One's." She answered. Dean almost stopped the car. "Cold One's?! Cass took you around cold one's?!" He snapped. Bella rolled her eyes at her brother's overprotectiveness. "Nothing happened. He was a more of a threat to them than they were to us. Cass is a very…peculiar angel." Bella blushed slightly, looking out the window. Dean shook his head. Looks like he just might win the $100.
Driving for a good 10 hours, the three rotating off and on, they decided to stop at a motel. As Dean went to get the room, Bella and Sam chatted about what was found and Sam was curious about Cass. "So, Cass." Bella rolled her eyes. "Ever since we've met him it's all you and Dean can ask about." Sam rubbed the back of his neck. "Well, I think we're all a bit curious. We don't know much about him except he's meant to hunt with us. You've spent more time with him." Bella blushed lightly thinking of her time with him on the cliff. "He's a good guy I can tell you. He's with us for a reason, I feel it. But Sam? I also feel like he's meant to be in all our lives." Sam hummed looking to his sister. "How do you think?" He cocked his head to the side. Bella looked towards Dean smiling. "I'm not sure but he's good for us."
AN: I know it's been a long time, I've just been stuck on how to proceed so this chapter is much shorter. Hope you enjoyed.
