"It wasn't your fa..." Before Lucifer could finish Raphael opened the door letting them in to see Castiel. They walked in to see...
...Castiel was laying asleep on the bed. Compared to the bed Cas was too tiny, it looked like the bed was going to swallow him whole any second. He had bandages around his head and arms, the rest of him was covered by the blanket. It hurt the human and angels to see Cas like this, it just felt so wrong.
"So how is he Raph?" Gabriel asked worried as he sat down on Castiel's bed stoking the baby's head. He could not believe this had happened, it was all his fault he thought. If he had just watched Castiel better then this would have never happened.
"Not to bad, he has some minor burns and bruising. The slash and stab wounds have been stitched up. He had torn open his older wounds so I had to stitch them as well, he will be running a fever for a while as his wound's try to heal. What worried me was his back, there is a new angel sigil there, it was created to block another's grace, but also create great pain if a grace tries to break through. I couldn't use my grace to help him." Raphael said in a guilty anger. If Naomi and Zachariah weren't already dead he would kill them himself. He may not be the most loving angel, but if someone messed with their youngest it was hell to pay. He just couldn't believe it was other angels that did this, even after they found out who he is.
"It's not your fault Raph, is there anything else we need to know?" Michael asked.
"Just watch him and keep his bandages fresh. I must be getting back to heaven now, tell me if you need anything else." Raphael said. He gave each of his brothers a quick hug, with Gabriel's being the longest before he vanished.
"We can take turns watching Castiel this way we all can spend time with him and we are not over-exhausting ourselves and passing out on the poor lad." Lucifer said.
"I am going first." Gabriel said with a tone in his voice that left no room for objection.
"Okay then I will go next, then it can be Mike, Dean then Sam and back to you Gabe." Lucifer explained, everyone nodded their heads agreeing with the plan.
It was all silent until Castiel stirred in his sleep before his eyes cracked open. "G..Gaby?" He asked not quite seeing who was around him.
"I'm here baby, you're better now Raph fixed you all up."Gabriel told him while petting his hair.
Tears ran down Castiel's face, "I...I don' wan' Nomi an' Zach an' 'tron ta get me Gaby!" He cried. ((don't want Naomi and Zachariah and Metatron to get me Gabe!))
"Shh baby they won't ever again. Me and Lucifer took care of them. They will never be coming back." He tried to comfort him even though he was lying. Metatron was still out there somewhere and Gabriel will find him even if it is the last thing he would do.
"Okay Gaby." Castiel said quietly.
"Why don't you get some sleep little one you need your rest." Gabriel told his little brother.
"Will you stay wit' me Gaby?" Castiel asked him shyly.
"Of course I will little one. Just lay down." Gabriel laid in the blankets and tucked Castiel in close next to him. Castiel laid on his chest with his arms protectivly around him. He would protect his little brother forever. Castiel held onto his shirt as a life line and soon began to fall asleep/ he nodded slightly at Sam, Dean, Michael and Lucifer telling them they will be alright for the night. They left the room, Lucifer nodded back before he shut out the lights.
Gabriel laid down and gently hummed his and Castiel's song lulling the baby angel back to a peaceful sleep.
