I'm sorry about the long wait. My last year of high school is killing me, so expect longer updates. And if the characters start to become OOC, let me know. Anyway, the plan to send Lucifer back to the cage is about to start!
After their trip to space, the Winchesters have brought the Doctor, Bill, and Nardole inside their bunker. When the three newcomers saw what the bunker looked like inside, they were rather impressed.
"Amazing!" said the Doctor as he looked around the entire bunker with Bill and Nardole behind him. They went from room to room, hallway to hallway, exploring the entirety of the bunker. After a couple of minutes, they made their way to the library where the brothers were waiting for them, Sam being on a laptop.
"So, what do you think?" Dean asked. "The guy who told us to find it said that every object, scroll, spell ever collected for thousands of years was here, under one roof, the safest place on earth, warded against any evil ever created."
"It's quite amazing!" the Doctor exclaimed. "For such an ancient place, there's so much information and history here!"
"Yeah, it's rather impressive," Bill added on.
After hearing their complements, Dean felt rather proud of himself for having the bunker. he got serious. "Well, I'm glad you've enjoyed exploring, because we've got some work to do."
Nardole wasn't able to hide the worry in his face. "You're talking about dealing with Lucifer, are you?" he questioned.
"Yep," Dean replied. "Sam here is researching a lead on where Lucifer could be now after leaving a recent vessel."
"Vessel?" Bill asked.
"Angels and archangels, like Lucifer, can possess people. But you would have to give them consent to let them use your body as a meatsuit for them. But Lucifer is so powerful, when he possesses his vessels, they either spontaneously combust or rot away."
The Doctor was very intrigued by this information. He's dealt with angels before, but they were only stone. He never expected another type of angel on a level like this. "That makes him very dangerous then. So who could he be going after now? What do you know about what he's up to?"
Still looking for a lead on his laptop, Sam said, "Well, when we went to a morgue, we found that his last vessel was Wallace Parker, someone of powerful authority. Which means, Lucifer going after people of influence, which makes him more dangerous." The new details shocked the three newcomers of the bunker.
"And there's no telling who he's possessing until it's too late?" Bill questioned. She wasn't a very religious person, but she had heard stories of the devil and his evil. Though she just thought they were just stories.
"Actually, I think I've found something," Sam replied as he gestured everyone to gather around the laptop, which showed a news article with the headline 'Record Donation to Dioceses'. He then clicked on a picture with a man in a suit holding a check and shaking hands with the priest in the red robe with a large cross around his neck. "This is the Archbishop of St. Louis with Wallace Parker."
Dean didn't see why it was important. "So?"
"So, that was him three days ago." Sam said. "And this," he scrolls through a few pictures until he found one that was slightly different than the rest. He continued, "is him last night at the opening of a food kitchen. Notice anything missing?"
"Yes," the Doctor was the first to notice that something was off. "The cross around his neck. He's not wearing it in this one unlike the others."
"Exactly," Sam said.
Dean scrolls back and forth through the pictures and he, Bill, and Nardole notices it too. "Yeah, you're right," he said.
"And this morning," Sam began to say, "his office canceled all further public appearances without comment."
"Okay, so you're thinking that, uh, Lucifer blasted out of Parker and into his buddy the Archbishop here." Dean summarized.
"That sounds about like it," said the Doctor.
"It's worth a shot," Sam agreed.
"Yeah," said Dean and the group of five began to head to head out to the building where the Archbishop was. For transportation, everyone decided that they should use the TARDIS, except for Dean.
"Why can't we just drive there?" he questioned. "It's more comfortable and we don't have to worry about freaking flying!" The last part came out loud.
"Mr. Winchester, I assure you that we can get there faster on my ship than in your car," the Doctor explained. Dean muttered something under his breath about him disrespecting his Baby. "Besides, it's more fun this way!" The Doctor gestured Dean to come inside with everyone else so they can go. Reluctantly, Dean decided to go inside and prepared himself. He hated flying.
Bill looked over at him, trying to make him comfortable. "Don't worry," she said. "You might get used to it."
And with everyone in tow, the Doctor prepped the TARDIS for flight! But somehow, things might get complicated along the way...
What awaits the group as they prepare to follow their first lead?
