A/N: Well, sorry for the long disappearance. I have been pretty busy, but, with recent new reviews brought me back to this story and actually helped me find an amazing future plot, which starts right now!

First, Review Replies:

Blondie 20000: Interesting questions. We'll see if that's answered here.

Saphirabrightscale: I actually did sort of answer that in this chapter, but, my friend and I had a long discussion about that too, and... We came to a conclusion that we actually both agreed on. "Lucifer was lonely". Of course, I didn't want to put that on here, because, well, Mary. Haha. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter.

yuzukikuran476: Thank you! :)

1PocketElf: Well, since you commented twice, I will reply to both. 1. XD, Lucifer and Mary = Hot couple. XD, it's... In my mind, but... We will just have to see.

2. I should be sleeping too, but night time seems to be the only time I find the mood to write. Especially this chapter. Just finished it last night. I'm glad you liked the dream scene. I'm thinking of adding a couple more, but... We'll see. (BTW, your comment is what got me motivated to continue writing this chapter).

MysticRose202: Another amazing comment that motivated me even further! I'm glad I was able to meet your expectations. I honestly thought I would get either, a lot of hate from these stories, or people just out flat wouldn't read them because, Lucifer and Mary.

I was actually working on this question before you asked it, of course most questions here won't have direct answers, because, either way, I imagine the meeting between Jack and Lucifer to be awkward and... Idk.

Anyway, that about rounds up the reviews!

This chapter was a little short, but, at least I'm getting back into it, and it ends with a new plot, so... Enjoy.

Extra note: At least with all the free time I have had to think about all the future ideas, I have summed that so far this story may as well have about 15 chapters, maybe even 20. We will have to see!

Chapter 10:

It was silent between them for a while.

This was probably the first time Mary actually got a close look at the kid.

She knew Sam and Dean were obviously keeping distance between him and Lucifer.

"Are you... Mary?" Jack asked after a few minutes.

Mary blinked a couple times, as if to lear whatever sleep was left, "Yeah, it's me."

"What's it like? Being possessed? I mean, I'm technically part angel, yet... I didn't need a vessel, this is what I was born into." Jack said, looking over himself as he said so.

"Well..." Mary started, as if waiting for Lucifer to have a say, but he was quiet, "It feels like two different people in one body."

"Can my... Can he hear me? What we're saying?" Jack asked.

'Yes.' Lucifer answered simply from the inside.

That was the only signal Mary needed.

Without any further warning, she let Lucifer to the surface.

He was surprised at first as to what was going on, 'What...?'

'I think you should talk to him. I barely know anything about him and... It's you he wants to talk to.' Mary said.

"You're Lucifer." Jack spoke up, sensing the invisible change.

Lucifer sighed, "Hey kiddo."

Jack was silent for a few seconds, as if processing the moment he never thought would come.

"Come on. The silence is killing me. You have questions, just ask. I don't bite." Lucifer sighed.

Jack gave him a short look of confusion, but spoke up, "Okay... Even though you're possessing Mary... When you were with my mother, did I... Do I look like you?"

Lucifer gave him a look, not a question he was expecting, but okay. "Mmm. I was kinda jumping around vessels at the time, so, it's kind of hard to tell."

'Not what you tell your kid.' Mary commented quietly.

'Shut up.' Lucifer tried to tune her out.

"Did you... Did you love my mother?" Jack continued.

"Love?" Lucifer asked, resisting the urge to choke on the word.

Jack nodded, seeming to not sense his struggle with the word, waiting patiently.

Lucifer shrugged, "I don't know. I barely knew her, really. And she barely knew me."

Jack's eyes lowered, as if to think about the answer.

"Even if you didn't love her, she loved me, and she died because of me. Sam and Dean had no choice but to take me in, and all this time, I've wondered, I still wonder, what is my purpose here? Dean, at first, said I was born to do evil. Castiel said I was the start of some 'new beginning', so... Which one is it?" Jack asked.

Lucifer sighed, "Okay. First of all, kid, don't let other people title you and tell you what you are. I mean, look at me. All my names are defined as evil. Jack, was it? - Not really a name I would have chosen - but, that name is as ordinary as they come."

"Everyone says you're evil. Because of the things you've done, you... Killed Castiel, you took away Sam and Dean's mother-"

"Okay, now in my defense, she was quite literally beating the s-... Crap out of me, so... It was a reflex! In all honesty, if she had just held her ground like she was, we probably wouldn't have fallen through."

'Yes. Blame it all on me again.' Mary scoffed.

"But, if you hadn't fallen through the portal, you would have caused more death? Why did you want me? What was my purpose to you?" Jack asked.

Lucifer sighed,, rubbing his temples, "Honestly? I don't know anymore. To surpass heaven and hell? But with the recent things that have happened, I'm kind of stuck here."

"Because of your Bond with Mary?" Jack asked.

"No. Because her boys are keeping me cooped up like a dog for close surveillance, and I'm not sure if she knows it, but Mary is the shock collar." Lucifer said, as if she wasn't even there.

"Can't you... Find another vessel?" Jack asked, a question that no had even thought of until now.

"I could, but... It takes only special hosts to be able to contain an Archangel, and hey, Winchesters happen to meet those requirements." Lucifer said.

"What about those vessels you were in before? The one you used when you created me?" Jack asked.

"Like I said, I was jumping vessels. Each vessel lasted me about a week. A month if I was lucky." Lucifer said.

Jack looked in thought for a few minutes.

"You're not... Really... Evil? Are you? The Bible says you were cast down, and then after that you're mentioned in all things evil-"

Lucifer scoffed, "You really believe all that? Part of it is true, yes I was cast down, but the rest... That's just humanity writing a fairy tale. God didn't just cast me out and blame me for all of humanity's wrongdoings, no, that's on them. What he really did was cast me down, into the pits of Hell, into a Cage where I was nothing. I was a caged animal with nothing but myself as entertainment. In this endless pit of fire. Now, how could I effect humanity from there?"

Both Jack and Mary could feel the emotion unwillingly coming out as he spoke.

Pain, sadness, anger.

It was silent between all of them for the longest time. Jack avoided his gaze after a while.

After a few minutes, Lucifer finally sighed deeply, running a hand down his face, "I'm sorry. I don't mean to bring that down on you. This is about you."

"No. I want to know about you. They say I shouldn't, but... You are a part of me. I just want to know... What your intentions are from here." Jack asked.

"Well I'm over trying to kill the Winchesters, if that's what you're asking. As of right now, I need to find a way to break the bond from me and Nick. 'Cause Alternate Michael is not gonna leave us alone, and if Mary's boys, - who are standing outside this door as we speak -, can find a way to do that, that'll be one problem solved." Lucifer explained.

Jack had looked at the door to the hallway curiously.

While no one had made a move to admit being caught, the older Winchester and angel both stood outside the door, listening carefully.

After a while, Cas and Dean finally let the two be.

After the... Revelation, their conversations had gotten boring.

Jack was just asking pointless random questions, Lucifer answering each one with ease.

He hated to admit how much they were... Apparently bonding.

Something he did not want them to do.

"Lucifer's right." Castiel suddenly spoke up.

"About what?" Dean asked.

"We have been titling Jack. You think he's a killler. I think he's destined for something great... Lucifer knows how that feels." Cas said.

"Wait... So you're defending him?" Dean asked, bewildered.

Cas sighed, already knowing his reaction to his known answer.

"Whether we like it or not, they are blood, and-"

"Blood?! You're actually considering the idea of Satan and the antichrist teaming up? As a good thing?" Dean asked.

"I think you're missing the point, Dean. Forget everything he's ever done to us. Before he was called Satan or the Devil, or even Lucifer, his name was Samael, and he was the brightest, most loyal angel of all of us. I aid once before it would seem that he is becoming an angel again, so maybe, Jack's influence on him could turn out for the best." Cas said sharply.

Dean was silent for a while, a sign that he was considering or understanding Cas' words, to an extent.

"Before Jack was born, what I felt from him... Was... Peace, hamony. I never thought it then, but now I know. Jack could Save Lucifer. He... Or his name is the particular reason this world has gone out of control. I can't explain it all exactly at the moment, but... You just hav to trust me on this." Cas finally finished.

Dean finally broke the silence, taking a deep breath, "Okay. Okay. We wait for them to finish their catch-up session, then we'll figure out what he's learned."

It took another few hours before Jack finally came into the main room.

Sam had returned an hour earier with food.

It was quiet between all of them for a long time, everyone just focused on Jack's thoughtful expressions.

"So... How'd it go?" Sam decided to break the awkward silence.

"It was... Fine." Jack said, looking at them, "I learned a lot from him. I... Honestly don't see the evil that you guys see from him. I mean... Everything he's done was for good reason."

"Good re- What? Out of all of this? Was for good reason? He's safe within Mom, and Cas said there isn't any easy way to separate them due to this... Ridiculous Bond. No, he's planned all this, for his own-"

"No. he didn't plan any of that!" Jack finally broke Dean off for once, "Have you considered that maybe he is telling the truth? As well as your own mother. I can see it. He saved her life, which involuntarily caused the Bond. He could have killed her, he could have left her to die. I don't know what you see, but I see differently."

Another round of silence.

"Now. Would you like to know what I learned? Since that's what you sent me in there to do in the first place?" Jack asked, still stern.

Still silence. Even Dean was still silent.

"As we learned. Michael from the Other World is communicating with them. Lucifer said that the reason is because his previous vessel, Nick, has a spell on him. He thinks that if we can find out how to break the bond from he and Nick, Michael won't have any more leverage." Jack explained.

"A witch?" Sam offered first.

"Yeah. But who? Ones we've known are dead, and if there are any out there, I doubt they'll help us." Dean said.

"Worth a shot. I'll look into it." Sam said, before standing, heading over to his laptop.

It was silent again for a while.

"So, if we find a witch, and if they help us..." Jack started.

"Then we also get them to find a way to break that Bond between Lucifer and Mom too." Dean said certainly.
