They all turned in for the night Dean and Sam were snoring in their own beds while Angelica felt quite content curled up in two chairs. She shifted in her sleep and sighed happily and kept sleeping. Nobody even knew that they had a visitor that night.
Castiel stood in the corner of the Motel Room watching the brothers and their cousin. He stepped forward and froze when Angelica shifted and sighed before nuzzling back into her pillow. He moved closer and watched her sleep he was completely confused. After he had told her that the tortured girl from a couple weeks ago had been allowed in Heaven she had hugged him. He was curious as to why humans did such an act and he decided to try it for himself. He'd never experienced electricity shooting through his body before, not even through his vessel. He had wondered if that always happened with hugs so he tried it out on a different human, and, nothing. He heard Angelica lightly snicker in her sleep and he was curious as to what she was thinking about. He frowned in confusion at first, then his face showed a small amount of hurt when he came across her dream of laughing at his brother who was wearing something with hearts covering them. Though it seemed that Gabriel was more interested in treating her like another sibling teasing her and annoying her. Angelica smirked slightly, and Castiel felt her dream shift. He was concerned when he saw it was the cliff she had fallen off of. It happened again but this time Castiel had shown up and stopped her from falling.
Castiel looked confused that she had invented a dream version of himself and kept watching. He remembered telling her if he had been there she wouldn't have fallen to begin with. Dream Angelica and Dream Castiel had their arms around each other just staring at one and another.
'Why does nobody say anything?' Castiel wondered and felt his eyes widen when Angelica reached up and kissed Dream Castiel.
Castiel pulled himself from the dream in panic. He looked around the Motel Room with wide eyes before he looked back down at Angelica who smirked again in her sleep.
'I need to get out of here…' Castiel thought to himself and disappeared while thinking about the massive jolt of electricity that was thrumming through his body again. 'Guess it's time to do laps around the GARDEN again.'
(AN/: think of Angels flying in circles around the 'GARDEN' as the equivalent of a human having to take a cold shower… :D )
Angelica sighed and uncurled herself from the two chairs. Sam grunted in his sleep and sat up rubbing at his eyes.
"Ugh, it can't be morning yet…" He whined and laid back down making Angelica snicker.
"Afraid so Jolly…" She muttered trying to pat down her hair because it was sticking up in different directions.
"Please stop calling me Jolly, even if it isn't Jolly Green Giant I know what you mean anyway…" Sam whined at his cousin who smirked.
Dean grunted hearing the others awake and talking. He sat up in his bed and glared at both of them.
"Is there a reason you two decided to wake up at JEEZ 6:30 in the morning? Guys come on!" He snapped at them and then quirked an eyebrow at Angelica before he started snickering. "Geez Angel, you fall asleep with a weed-whacker or something?" He ducked in time because she had lobbed her pillow at him.
"Ass…" She grumbled before leaning back against her chair popping her back.
"Brat…" Dean muttered back at her. "Anyway since we're all awake might as well get this damn hunt started."
An hour later Angelica had tamed her wayward hair, Dean had caffeine in his system, and Sam had his hair perfected. Together the three of them walked down a street and came across a magician filming his show in the middle of said street.
"What a douchebag…" Dean grumbled with a shake of his head. Angelica frowned and saw the man do another trick which made her cringe.
"This time I can agree with you…" She admitted to her cousin who smirked triumphantly.
"Guys it's Jeb Dexter…" Sam informed them and Angelica looked at him oddly.
"Heard of him Jolly?" She asked curiously making Dean snicker out loud.
"Yeah Sammy it worries me when you know shit like this…"
"He's famous, well kind of…" Sam shrugged awkwardly.
"For what…douche-baggery?" Dean asked making Angelica stare at him this time.
"Why do insist on inventing words?"
The three of them decided to watch the man do a card trick and he looked like he was seizing and screamed. "GO BACK TO HELL DEMON!" And threw some cards.
Angelica frowned and talked sideways to Dean.
"I think I once said that to my 5th grade Math Teacher." He snorted with laughter and Jeb Dexter looked over at them and glared warningly. Angelica looked at Jeb as he rubbed the one card that had gotten stuck in a window.
"Is this your card ma'am?" He asked and the lady nodded in surprise. Everybody started clapping but Angelica tilted her head in perplexed amusement.
"Well you got to admit Dean it does take talent to toss a card so it gets stuck in a window…" She admitted and Dean shrugged, Sam followed alongside them both taking a drink from his fresh water bottle. "I mean he's like The Douchebag Ninja…" Dean heard her phrase and laughed out loud and at the same time Sam sprayed the water that had made it into his mouth, completely out of his mouth!
Sam held his mouth trying to stop the spray but it was too late and he accidently hit some people nearby. He coughed on the water with laughter, still hearing the phrase being repeated. He looked at his cousin and brother with an accusatory glare.
"That was not nice…" He snapped at them but then smirked and laughed again. "But it was very funny…"
The three started to walk further down the street and Dean looked back as Jeb Dexter did another trick. He shook his head and looked over at his brother and cousin.
"Seriously, a fake Demon possession…?" Dean sighed with a roll of his eyes. "I can't believe anybody would fall for that crap…"
"It's not all crap." Sam shrugged trying to defend the decent magicians out there.
"What part of that wasn't a steaming pile of BS?" Dean asked and Angelica shrugged in agreement.
"I prefer the slight of hand stuff myself. Being able to hold an entire deck of cards in one hand is cool…"
"Okay yeah Dean that was BS…" Sam agreed but tried to argue again. "But not all magicians are like that…Angel Eyes is right is does take a certain amount of skill."
"Yeah you guys stick together right I forgot you used to be into this stuff. You even had a deck of cards and a wand…" Dean smirked at his little brother who pouted.
"You had a wand…?" Angelica asked trying to hold back a grin making Sam glare at Dean.
"I was 13 and it was a phase!" Sam snapped at both of them.
"Oh touchy…" Angelica muttered making Dean snicker lightly.
"It just bugs me guys." Dean finally admitted. "Yeah it actually offends me a bit. Playing Demons into magic when the real stuff will rip you to pieces…"
"Like a guy that drops dead with 10 stab wounds and no tears on the clothes?" Angelica asked smirking at Sam who rolled his eyes.
"Now that's what I'm talking about!" Dean nodded making both Sam and Angelica roll their eyes.
"Did he have an assistant we can talk to? Every magician had at least one that would aid them with the tricks…" Sam offered and they found out who the assistant was and went to look for her.
When they found the assistant she was cleaning and boxing up the dead man's tricks and props. Dean cleared his throat and the girl looked over at them.
"Hello I'm Agent Osborne, this is Agent Waters, and the nice lady over there is Agent Barnes. We were wondering if you would be willing to answer a few questions about your boss?" Dean asked ignoring the irritated looks Sam and Angelica shot him.
"Do you mind if I continue this while you ask?" The girl asked looking frazzled trying to collect everything.
"Not at all…" Dean smirked at the girl who went back to cleaning up. "So did your boss have any enemies that you knew of?" Dean questioned and the girl snorted drolly.
"Vance had plenty of enemies…"
"How so?" Sam asked curiously as Angelica looked at some of the props intrigued.
"HE would steal from other magicians all the time…" Angelica heard the assistant say that and she spun around.
"He did something that stupid?" She asked in horror and the other girl shrugged with a nod.
"What did he steal?" Dean asked worried that Angelica would be offended by that of all things.
"Stage effects, close-up techniques, anything he could get his hands on…"
"Is that enough to get him killed?" Dean asked freaked out that this industry was that cut-throat.
"These guys take their stuff pretty seriously." The girl nodded and went back to work.
"That's an understatement." Angelica nodded in agreement when her cousins looked at her she informed them what she knew. "Famous World Magician Rudolph Valentino was completely black-listed when he unmasked himself as the 'masked magician'. It was the universal rule for magicians to never reveal their secrets. He not only revealed the secrets but also showed audiences step by step how they were done. The man is lucky they didn't have him killed…"
"Huh, you know your history…" The girl smirked before looking behind a cloak and finding a rabbit. "There you are…" She picked it up and put it into the bag.
"Did you find anything in the props that weren't Vance's?" Angelica asked curiously.
"As a matter of fact, I did…" The girl handed Dean a Tarot Card.
"So he didn't use Tarot Cards?" Angelica asked trying to remember what the character on the card meant.
"He hated card tricks. He never wanted them around, let alone in his precious cape."
Dean looked at her then.
"Do you mind if we keep this?"
"Knock yourself out…" The girl shrugged dismissively.
"Thank you for your time miss." Angelica nodded politely and the three of them let the girl get back to work.
