High School - Mutant!Supernatural


Castiel gasped at the sharp pain on his abdomen, his hands grasped the edges of the trashcan to keep himself from falling to the floor, he could taste the blood in his mouth and one of his eyes was beginning to bruise in result of a broken nose.

"Are you going to talk to me that way again, faggotstiel?" Dick smirked grabbing a handful of hair from Castiel's head making him look into his eyes.

"You can hit me all you want, but that doesn't make you more than I am, you are not my level." Castiel spat in Dick's face. He scrunched his nose and wiped the blood from his eye before he punched Castiel one more time.

"Will you ever learn? What will I do with you?" he tapped his chin with his index as if in thought. "Ah, I have a great idea." he chuckled, "Come on, 'Angel', we have an appointment with Alas-" his words were cut off by a hand on his shoulder.

"Let him go, Dick!" a fist met his jaw and he fell to the floor, taking Castiel along.

"Butt out, Winchester, this doesn't concern you!" he spat blood on the floor, his other hand released Castiel.

"I think it does." Dean nodded.

"You asked for it." Dick stood up balling his fists as they set on fire and his eyes turned black. Castiel leant against the wall for support as his lip healed slowly and his broken nose put itself back in its place. Dean glanced at the boy, then back at Dick just in time to avoid with his adamantium claws a ball of fire aimed at his face. Dick continued throwing balls of fire at Dean but kept missing, one was aimed at his torso, another one at his feet, and another one at his face, which he returned to Dick.

"Come on, is that all you got?" he laughed. Castiel stared wide eyed as Dick's body set on fire and stood from the ground.

"Dean, please stop! He's not worth fighting with." he pleaded.

"I know, I'm just having fun." the cocky teen shrugged, "I've beat him before." he winked at the boy.

"Dean!" Castiel pushed him to avoid the fire thrown his way, falling instead on Castiel. He could feel it burning his flesh, like thousands of needles penetrating the skin, then ice mixing with fire which stung making him scream.

"Cas, Cas, get up, come on, buddy." Dean yelled from somewhere in the alley, Castiel could hear metal clash against something, then explosions, groans of pain and then a thud.

He fluttered his eyes open feeling the drops of rain hit the burnt flesh as it healed, he groaned struggling to stand up and he felt two hands under his arms keeping him from falling.

"How're you doing, Cas? Can you walk?" he blinked the water away from his eyes.

"You are an idiot, Dean." he pushed him away angrily.

"Ow, stop it, dammit!" Dean covered his head with his claws trying to avoid the hail from hitting his head. "Cas, stop! He's gone, see?"

"That doesn't make you any less of an idiot." he froze the water droplets hanging from the tips of Dean's claws.

"Ow, would you stop it?!" he tried to separate his claws that had been frozen together.

"No."

"Fine. You should be thanking me." he snarled.

"I didn't ask you to save me, I could have done it myself." Castiel crossed his arms and turned to leave with Dean following.

"Then why didn't you?"

"He isn't worth it." he sighed. "He enjoys feeling superior to others because of his abilities. I do not understand how making others feel less is being 'superior' yet you seem to do the same, Dean. That is rather upsetting." he ran a hand through his damp hair.

"I'm not like him, Cas." Dean kicked a can in front of him, "I don't pride myself for being a mutant, I didn't ask to be like this and I don't want to be, but I guess I gotta live with it."

"Then why do you do that?" Castiel kicked the can Dean had kicked.

"Do what?" he kicked it again before Castiel could.

"Fight with others just to show how powerful you are and by doing so put yourself at their level." he kicked the can once again.

"I don't know. I only fight when I see others picking on you." Castiel stopped abruptly causing Dean to bump into him.

"Are you saying I am the cause of it all?" he frowned.

"No, no, that's not what I meant." he shook his head chuckling, "I mean, I can't stand seeing others step all over you like you are dirt, Cas, you are way powerful than you seem, hell you could even freeze an entire town if you wanted to, and I don't get why you just let them treat you this way." he let his shoulders drop, Castiel's eyes softened and he took a step towards the boy.

"I don't need to show others what I am to gain power, I don't need it. I want to seem normal, I try to be, and honestly, I only care of what you and Sam think of me, the rest of the world can go to hell." He stepped on the can in front of him, then kicked it far from their reach. Dean took Castiel's hand in his giving it a gentle squeeze in assurance.

"Just don't let them hurt you anymore, okay? I know you can avoid fighting." Castiel nodded with a small smile on his lips. "Let's go home, mum was making apple pie when I left, it should be cool by now."

"If there's any left." Castiel laughed. He froze a drop of rain and caught it in his hand to throw at Dean, then began to run as fast as he could.

"Hey! That's cheating!" Dean yelled catching up with the boy.

"Stop complaining, Winchester!" Castiel laughed running ahead as he froze the puddles of water around him. "By the time you get home you won't find any pie!"

"Son of a bitch, you better not eat it again! I'll kill you, Cas!" He slipped on a frozen puddle and hit his head on the ground.

"If you can catch me!" Castiel's voice echoed from somewhere.

"You fucker, you are so not sleeping on my bed tonight." He groaned standing up.
