Chapter 7-Choice
Dean's POV
They were able to get Death's ring. But in return, he had to agree to something. He had to agree not to stop Sam from jumping in the Pit. He knew deep down it was the only chance they had, but wanted to deny it as he still had hope from what Harry said. However, if Death himself made an agreement to give up the ring in return for him not stopping Sam, then it meant that there was no other way. Bobby had asked which he was willing to lose, Sammy or the world, and he couldn't answer. After the conversation with Cas, he started to hate free will. He wanted someone to tell him what to do so he wouldn't have to. Cas had went to bring Michael to God, and he hoped that it would do enough that he wouldn't have to choose.
Michael POV
{Who was that?}
{That was CASTIEL}
{How did he find Father? Where is He?}
{Where is he meeting MICHAEL?}
A cacophony of voices resounds. There was disbelief that a lower angel had been the one to find Him. He feels the same excitement as his siblings. Castiel would not lie, his devotion and search for Him was well known. A flutter of wings interrupts his thoughts.
{Michael, I assume you have heard the message.} It was Raphael, the only other archangel left in Heaven.
{Yes, Father has returned.}
{No, He has asked only for you.}
{I am sure He has reasons for doing so.}
{Do you think He will return? You who were closest to Him should know more than the rest of us.}
{. . . I believe Father did not leave without a reason. Tell the others not to interrupt this meeting.}
He flies away and steps through time, to excited to wait the day. He lands by a Church, and starts to flare his Grace. It is powerful enough to be felt all over the world. Every supernatural being could feel it. Every EMP detector went crazy, showing off the chart readings. A flutter of wings and he sees Castiel.
"Brother."
"Castiel. So you were able to find him."
"Yes, but it was Dean that led me to Him."
"I see. Is He . . . well?" It was a casual question, but it seemed to darken Castiel's face.
"I will take you to Him." He watches Castiel take out a coin that shines with His Grace.
"You were gifted with His token."
"Yes, it is the only way to get past the barriers that hide Him."
He feels a sense of relief that it was not because Castiel was favored. But still thinks it was suspicious that He had brought back Castiel.
"I will need to hold your hand if you wish to come with me." He stretches out his hand, and watches Castiel flipped the coin twice after flaring his Grace. The hand is touched, and instantly he is somewhere else.
"This . . ." The wards surrounding him are powerful, on a scale that is impossible for the majority.
"I will leave you here, He is through the door at the end." A familiar Grace surrounds him, and he feels happiness.
- This chapter is a bit short, but I kinda "jumped the gun" when I put Michael in the last chapter, so I need to reorganize a bit. Bad news is that I won't be able to update probably til Wednesday to figure out everything and how to write in soul-less Sam which is really important for S.6.
For the people who saw the previous version, I don't know what happened.
