Hello all. So here we are the next chapter I hope you like it.

Disclaimer: I don't own Supernatural.

After breakfast the next morning Gabriel went in search of Dean while Bobby was on the phone to Dr. Visyak to get the location out of her. He found him in the panic room making bullets from the ash, a clean and dry glass by his side. Once all the bullets where made Dean poured whiskey into the glass and added the remaining ash which wasn't enough to make a bullet.

"Don't do it Dean-o." came a voice from behind him and, not that he needed to to know he who was, he turned and looked.

"What's it to you Gabe?" he asked annoyed the he had been caught.

"Do you really think Eve is going to concentrate on you?" Gabriel asked as he made his way inside the room and over to the table where the glass sat before he continued. "Or is it more likely she'll go after the person who threw her into purgatory the first time round?" with that Gabriel grabbed the glass and downed it before heading back to the door.

"Oh and Dean-o? I'm counting on you." He said over his shoulder.

"Counting on me to do what?" Dean asked, he was now very confused.

At that Gabriel stopped in the doorway. It seemed that Castiel hadn't shared all he knew with Dean then. "What is needed." He answered not turning round.

"Hu?" Dean asked still not getting what it was Gabriel was asking him to do.

At that Gabriel turned and looked him dead in the eyes, making Dean's widen, because the look in the former archangels eyes was not one he had ever seen there before. There was no mischief, no amusement, no stern angel-liness, no mask at all. No the look in his eyes was clearly one of pain, but with a need to act. Fear but also determination. They looked to Dean for the very first time so very human.

"If anything should happen to me Dean-o, anything that is irreversible, make sure I don't hurt anyone okay? Whatever it takes." And with that Gabriel turned back round and walked out the door leaving Dean staring after him as he processed that fact that he was pretty sure that Gabriel had just asked him to kill him. Though why he would need to do that he had no idea. Just what the hell was going on now?

Gabriel waked away from Dean hoping he understood what he meant. He knew that he couldn't ask Rose or Cassie to kill him, and Sam would probably try to find a way to get round it, but Dean? He would do it. Especially if it was the only way to protect his family. He knew he might have just signed his own death warrant but it was better his than anyone else's. And then there was Eve. He had just signed hers as well. He just had to now piss her off enough to get her to bite him. Though he didn't think that would be too hard, he could be rather annoying when he wanted to be after all.

With that he put thoughts of death, his and Eve's, out of his mind as he went back to join the others. If this was his last day with his family for the rest of eternity then he was going to make the most of it.

After an hour long, very frustrating call Bobby got Eve's location. It seemed she had set herself up in a town about half days drive from them, though what she was doing there he had no idea Eleanor had just implied that it was bad. That he inferred from her parting words to him that were so comforting.

"She is creating her utopia, and she knows you are coming now. She knows exactly who is coming."

Just thinking it made a shiver run up his spine. Even he didn't know exactly who was going so how would Eve?

Shaking his head he went and called a meeting to gather everyone round and impart the information he had gained.

"She's making Jefferson Starships." Gabriel explained as Bobby repeated Eleanor's words.

"What the bloody hell is a Jefferson Starship?" Crowley asked, he had never heard of them and he had been a demon for nigh on three hundred years.

"And who would be stupid enough to name them that?" Dean asked what hell kind of stupid ass name was Jefferson Starships? I mean really? The band was shit, now there's monsters name that too?

"Well they are a hybrid of all monsters and as for the name Dean-o you did, on the TV show." Gabriel replied smirking at the hunter who glared at him and crossed his arms as Sam sniggered from behind him.

"So who is going?" Bobby asked getting them all back on track with the whole killing the mother of all monsters plan.

"All of us." Rose answered making Bobby, Crowley, Sam and Melissa turn and look at her. Though the other three didn't, this wasn't news to them after all.

"Me and Cas will go in with Sam and Dean as back up, Crowley, Bobby, Rose and Melissa will be protection for Isobel." Gabriel explained to the other four people in the room who then turned their stares to him, Bobby being the first to recover from the information that when Rose said all of them, she had meant ALL of them.

"Why the hell you idjits taking that girl with you?" Bobby demanded. He couldn't belief that they would be so reckless as to take the kid on this one, or any one for that matter.

"Because we need her." Gabe replied through gritted teeth staring Bobby down. The old man did not scare him and he would not change his mind on his. It was his only chance to survive, and he really wanted to survive.

"What? How can a two year old help in this fight?" Sam asked trying really hard to keep his temper with the former archangel. I mean how could be so damn cavalier with others' lives.

"You need her to heal you don't you." Crowley stated when Gabriel didn't answer Sam. he wasn't stupid, he knew that the kid had powers and he had watched the archangel train her. Oh he was pretty sure that she didn't have the power to heal a human, at least not yet, but Gabriel? Well he was something else entirely, and all the little bits and pieces he had let slip made Crowley believe that he wasn't quite as human as he pretended to be. Crowley didn't know everything there was to know about angels but he as pretty sure he was the third most knowledgably in the room after the two former ones. And he had an idea just what was happening here.

"Yes." Gabriel replied looking in the eyes of the former demon and wanna be king of hell. Of all people here he thought Crowley would get it first. He certainly wasn't stupid that was for sure.

"Audacious." Crowley responded with a smile on his lips. What was it with the Winchesters and there Hail Mary's anyway?

"I know." Gabriel replied with a shrug. It was, but it was also the only plan they had.

"But it could work." Crowley agreed with a nod. He really didn't know much but he knew that.

"I know." Gabriel said once more with a nod when he realised that without saying it Crowley had given his support and that he would protect his family with everything he had if need be.

"Yes I imagine you do. Much more than the rest of us." Crowley muttered smirking at Gabriel before turning to the room and giving them all his snide smile. Bloody hell had he really just pledged to protect that kid? Or course he had, well he had been looking for a way to redeem himself, what better way than to face off with a load of hybrid monster? Bring it on.

"Okay what is going on here? Dean are you just going let them bring her with us?" Sam asked his brother incredulously, surely Dean wouldn't be that reckless with his child.

"Yeah Sammy, I am." Dean replied with a sigh, god he wished he didn't have to but… and that was it wasn't it? There was always a but in his life.

"What? Why?" Sam asked, he couldn't believe Dean had just said that.

"Cos family don't end in blood. And some risks are worth taking." Dean replied not looking at his brother but at Gabriel who was just watching him and Sam argue.

Sam opened his mouth once more but was stopped by a new voice joining in.

"No Sam, it has been decided so leave it." Rose said with enough force to silence her brother and leave the middle Winchester with nothing to say. She then turned to the rest of the room before they could argue more, they were wasting time here. "Now if we are all going we need to pack, hopefully we can make it to this town before the end of the day and get this finished today." With that Rose rose from her seat to go and pack a bag for both her and Isobel. Gabriel also stood and followed her, he needed to collect his blade from his safe. It was time to face the woman he thought of as his little sister once more, and this time the end would be at least one of the dead. Hopefully only one, but Gabriel had his doubts about that.
