"This is the forest you created for Castiel when he was a fledgling. You told me you wanted to create your own sparing place...I never imagined...Wait...what is the spell?"

"It ain't nice I'll tell ya that." I sighed. "In this place you can't lie. No matter how much you may want to it forces the truth out of you. Gabriel put a spell on your neck where you can't tell a lie...well this place...even your emotions can't lie."

"Why would you create such a place Gabriel?"

"I wanted just one area of my life where no one can lie. Even me. The first few decades of Castiel's life were brutal on me...I couldn't tell him who I was, so I was hoping after so much hinting at it he would just outright and ask, but he never did...this place is still beautiful though."

"So...what am I doing here?"

"Well...It's kind of like a just in case interrogation..."

"I understand...after all I've done...it makes sense. Alright, ask your questions."

"Gabriel are you sure it will work on him?" Castiel asked.

"It worked on God, so yeah...I know it will work and that is a story for another day so don't ask."

"Alright then..." I started. "Now that you are back to your formal self do you still intend to hold yourself to those terms?"

"Of course."

"Do you want to kill me or Sam?"

"No, but I do remember that I used to...I just don't feel the need or want for that anymore."

"Do you feel the need to play any of your mind games on us?"

"No, although Gabriel and I used to do that to each other a lot...it sometimes got out of hand...I tought it to him."

"Do you have any feelings that your old self had prior to the pact?"

"No. You really did restore a fallen angel, Dean. I will be forever grateful."

"This is just creepy..." I walked away and Gabriel walked passed me.

"Do you regret what you did to Adam and Eve?"

"Unfortunately no...It was a horrible thing that I did, but some good came out of it. I still remember everything I had done as my old fallen self...and I remember the thoughts and the feelings that went with it...it feels like an awful nightmare that after so many thousands of years...I have finally woken up."

"Dean...this is real. This is my brother before he fell." I heard choked sobs coming from Gabriel. "Thank you, Dean. You have no idea what this means to me." After a while he sniffed and he seemed to clear his throat. "Alright...let's go back to Sam. I'm sure this will be amusing."

"I think you're right." I agreed and we were all suddenly in the parking lot of the motel. "I have an idea..."

oOoOoOoOoOo

I walked in with Castiel and I made sure that Cas underatood we had to look worn out and tired. "So how did the battle go? I noticed you took the grace cream."

"Yeah and it came in handy. We sent those angels running. They didn't even know what hit them. I don't think we'll have any more trouble from them."

"That's great! How many were there?"

"About...thirty two."

"Wow...you really counted?"

"It uh...wasn't that difficult."

I heard the familiar flapling of wings and right on time was Gabriel with the four large pizzas. "You had to order pepperoni didn't you! It costed extra you know!"

"Yeah yeah...You got my change?"

"D-Dean?"

"Hold on Sammy. So how much was it?"

"DEAN!?"

"Hold on Sammy! You gonna answer me?"

"It was about forty, here's your change."

Another flapping of wings and Lucifer appeared, but thankfully I put a protection spell around him just in case because Sammy looked ready to shoot. "Hey, did you get my chicken pizza extra spicey?"

"Umm..." I looked through boxes. "Yeah..." I handed him the right box. "Right here, here you go."

"Thanks!"

"DEAN! WHAT IS GOING ON!?"

"Well, come on Sammy...I know we aren't really known for parties but it's a pizza party. Hey Gabriel did you get the sodas and beer?"

"Yeah, where do you want me to set them?"

"Over there is fine. Hey Lucifer, I know you didn't want a beer, so what soda do you want?"

"Did you get Dr. Pep?"

"Yeah..."

"I'll take some of that, thanks."

"DEAN! CASTIEL! YOU'RE TALKING TO LUCIFER LIKE IT'S NORMAL AND GABRIEL IS BACK FROM THE DEAD! WHAT IS GOING ON!? Oh God...I know what it is...I've lost it. I've finally lost it. Lucifer is in my head again and he's messing everything up again."

"Sammy...Calm down..."

"No Dean...this doesn't..."

"Alright...well that was fun while it lasted. Sorry guys...Lucifer, you were right and I owe you fifty bucks...but unfortunately we already spent it on the pizza and soda."

"Keep it! This was great!"

"Dean? No no no...Not you...I lost you to Lucifer and naturally Castiel followed you, but that doesn't explain Gabriel..."

"Sammy relax, you haven't lost me to anything. I'm still me...aside from the me being an angel part but I'm mostly me."

"I'm real too you know, and that hurt my feelings Sam." Gabriel walked over to Sam and patted him on the shoulders. "Come enjoy some pizza with us. We got you vegetarian."

"I...you...you're really real."

"As real as can be..."

I heard clanging and shuffling behind me and it was Lucifer grabbing at mine and Cas' pizza. "Hey!" I lifted my hand and made Lucifer float up in the air in a bubble.

"Dean...could you put me down, please?"

"Hands off the pizza!"

"Ah but Dean...that wasn't part of our pact. Sharing is caring. How about try one of my pieces?"

I grumbled under my breath and let my hand down. "Fine, but leave Cas some."

"Hey uh...Dean...you may not want to use angelic powers so freely in front of Sam here...I think his head is going to explode."

"Hey, can I suggest something? It's awfully cramped here...Can we move this to the forest we all know?"

"Good idea, Castiel." Lucifer said mid bite. "Take us there brother!"

Once we arrived we were immediately in the cabin, and I was thankful for it's size. "Okay...Can someone please tell me why Lucifer is here!? And what pact? You made a deal with Lucifer!?"

"Well kind of but..."

"What were you thinking Dean!?"

"Sammy...if you want answers you are going tonhave to listen. Now, you know that in this place it is impossible to lie right? Well it was even tested on God himself so...ask away but try and listen to my answers...oh and make it quick...Pizzas are getting cold."

"Alright fine, Am I hallucinating."

"No."

"Are you a full fledged angel now?"

"Ah...technically...full fledged...archangel. He needs some...work, but...he's pretty gifted." Lucifer pointed out in between bites.

"Y-You're an archangel? How?"

"Well...Cas here was a hidden archangel and because I was already cursed to be an angel, the bond I made changed a few things."

"Okay...So...did you lie about the battle?"

"Not...completely. It started out with about thirty and then I kept scaring them. There was more arguing than anything, and then Lucifer showed up, scared the living daylights out of them and then we had our battle."

"Okay...so what happened?"

"He saved my life that's what happened." Lucifer answered and everyone got quiet. "Sam, I can't lie here right? I mean...they alreadybtested it on me."

"Right...So...how did he go about saving your life?"

"Well, It turns out he is very skilled with a sword, and he cut off my wing...and it..."

"It's a big no no and I almost killed him...I think."

"That's close to it. Anyway, Once Gabriel and I explained that it is basically taboo and that not even I would do such a cruek thing...and after I cried my eyes out, because of the pain and misery it caused me, Dean offered me my wing back in exchange for a few things, and I happily agreed. One of which was to return to the way I was before I fell and to stay that way...so this is me before I fell Sam...Your brother did the impossible...he did something only God was able to do. He redeemed a fallen angel and restored them...and an archangel at that."

"S-So now what...you're on our side now?"

"Well, Gabriel and I owe a lot to him now...so we are on whatever side he's on. He is our nephew after all."

"Wait what?"

"Oh well see...Gabriel and I are like blood brothers, the other angels are related through Grace and God, and then there is Gabriel and Castiel. Castiel is Gabriel's son which makes him my nephew, and since he made a bond with Dean and they both now carry souls and grace equally that makes Dean my nephew too and also Gabriel's son...in a way."

"Wow...did not see that coming. So...You're done being evil?"

"Yes, and this bracelet is proof of my pact. Dean has one too. Now would you like to come and enjoy some pizza? Maybe we can go swimming after."

"I...I would like that...but you know this is going to take me a long ass time to get used to this right?"

"I expect it too...but do you believe me?"

"In here...I learned that here is no way anyone can lie."

"Good to know."

"Yeah it is...Hey Dean, save a slice would ya?"

"Only if you can get here soon enough!" I Smirked and looked at Gabriel discussing while eating. Then, Lucifer came in with Sam, and it seemed they had worked it all out. "So the two of you talk it out?"

"Yeah it's better now...I have some of an understanding of what's going on."

"Well that's good, now C'mon. Pizza is getting cold." We all sat down and had our pizza, soda, beer, and swim after. After that, it was the start of a beautiful, crazy, messed up family.
