Asmodeus turns to his demons.

"Get them out."

One demon smirked and goes to open the car door.

"Hey hands off!" Dean yelled.

He ain't letting no bastard from Hell touch his beauty.

Everyone surrendered and got out the car. Gabriel whimpered and tried to hide himself between Rick and Ketch. Rick assumed this guy must be the Prince of Hell Asmodeus or as Dean calls him Colonel Sanders.

Rick can see why now. The suit really gives of a KFC vibe.

Ketch knew he is in trouble as soon as he made eye contact with the Prince of Hell.

"Arthur Ketch." Asmodeus sneered.

Ketch gets kicked by one of the demons causing the Englishman to fall to his knees.

Asmodeus leans forward. His face inches away from the former Man of Letter's.

"I am surprised by what you did. Rescuing my little pet."

Before Ketch could answer. Asmodeus punches him in the stomach.

"Aah."

Ketch rolls to his side and winced.

"We already went through this. I told you that I own you. No matter where you go how far you go I still own you."

Asmodeus punches him again.

"Yet you still ran and you took the archangel with you."

Ketch received a blow to the face.

"I knew humans are stupid but what you did was reckless, foolish. You..."

Punch.

"...You."

Punch.

"Argh!" Ketch cried.

"You want an early death boy!" Asmodeus pulls Ketch back by his ear. "It very well seems like it."

"I am doing what is right." Ketch spat out.

Asmodeus tuts.

'I thought I knocked some sense into ya the last time we had this type of talk. Looks like I scrambled your brains instead. Doing the right thing? You wouldn't know the difference between right and wrong. You were raised as a killing machine with no conscience. Kill, kill, kill. That's what those Brits drilled into your head. That's all you know."

"Well I guess things have changed." Ketch tried to smirk.

Asmodeus planned to throw another punch wanting to punish this pathetic human but his attention drifts to the archangel who struggled in the demons grip.

The Prince of Hell smiled.

"Oh, I missed you, boy." The demon runs his fingers along Gabriel's hair. Gabriel flinched at the touch. Asmodeus increases his grip at one strand and glares at the archangel. "I have to punish you rather severely, I'm afraid." .

"Leave him alone!" Sam yells.

Asmodeus's bright yellow eyes land on the Winchesters.

"And as for you two."

The demon flicks his wrist. Pain shoots up the brothers and they both collapse on the ground. Asmodeus watched with an amused expression.

"Sir." A demon shoves Rick forward. "They got a friend."

Asmodeus raises his eyebrow.

"Howdy. I believe we have never met."

"I know who you are." Rick says.

"Do you now? I assume Tweedledee and Tweedledum told ya." Asmodeus looks at the brothers with curiosity. "What did they say? Anything nice?" He then scoffs. "By looking at your face I take that as a no."

"You are a demon."

"Prince of Hell." He spoke sounding proud of his title. "But now I'm the King of Hell."

Rick feels pain shoot up him. He drops to the ground and groans as the burning sensation grows in his stomach.

"I like meeting new people." Asmodeus smirked. "I like to see how long it can take me to break em."

Rick coughs and clutches his stomach. It felt like fire is burning his insides. Asmodeus's smile turns into a frown as he approaches the human. He can sense something in this man. A germ? a disease? Whatever it is this man is covered in it.

This pathogen in Rick's system, it's not normal, it's not natural. It seemed supernatural.

There is no ring on his finger so he can't be Pestilence. Asmodeus thought.

Yet why did this feel like his work?

The demon's thoughts get interrupted when the two demons who held Gabriel start to burn up. The demons burst into flames and drop to the ground.

Gabriel's eyes glow. His wings are spread out.

"Gabriel! What are you doing son? You know too well what I can do to you. I broke you!" Asmodeus hissed.

Gabriel's body glows white. The years worth of wounds and scars start to heal. The demons back away. Fear appears on their faces. The Winchesters are not letting them get away. The brothers break free and start to fight.

Dean reaches for his angel blade and stabs a demon in the chest. Sam ducks a swing from another demon and stabs them up the jaw. One demon grabs Sam and slams him into the car door. The demon pins Sam down but suddenly a bullet goes through the demon. The demon looks round and sees Rick still on the ground aiming a gun.

"Bullets do not harm me." The demon smirked.

Sam smirks.

"But this does."

Sam stabs the demon in the face. The demon screams and falls on the ground. Sam nods at Rick to say thanks. Rick nods back and smiles.

Ketch is slumped over. He looked worse. Rick goes over and helps the Englishman up.

Ketch leans on Rick's chest looking close to passing out. Rick carefully puts Ketch into the car.

"Don't move." Rick ordered.

Ketch let out an hmm and turns to the side on the seat.

"You're too weak!" Asmodeus yelled fear in his voice.

Gabriel stands tall and glares at the demon.

"Not anymore." He growled.

Gabriel thought enough is enough. He has put up with Asmodeus for too long now. He ain't letting the yellow eyed bastard hurt anyone else.

It is time that someone stood up to that son of a bitch.

"Oh, by the way," Gabriel continued "I always hated that dumbass suit."

The archangel flicks his wrist.

Flames rise and start to take over the Prince of Hell. Asmodeus screams in pain. Gabriel didn't stop. He kept going. He wanted Asmodeus to have a painful death.

The demon burns away until there is nothing left.

Gabriel lowers his hand. His eyes return to normal.

"Gabriel." Sam smiles. "You did it."

Gabriel smiles.

"I sure did."

Damm it felt good. Gabriel wanted to do it all over again.

Then he could do it again.

The archangel furrows his eyebrows while Dean clears his throat.

"Colonel Sanders got Kentucky Fried. Cas texted he is in the bunker. We got all the ingredients." Dean smiles. "We can finally rescue mom and Jack and reunite Rick with his people."

Rick smiled at the thought of being reunited with Michonne, Carl and Judith. He missed them so much.

"You do that." Gabriel nodded.

"You can help us Gabriel. You are part of the team now." Sam says.

"Yeah about that."

Gabriel presses his fingers on Ketch. Ketch gasps and sits up now fully healed.

"I gotta do some things." Gabriel sighed.

"What things?" Dean frowned.

"Its...personal." Gabriel look like he didn't want to talk about it. He shrugs. "Now that Asmodeus is gone I do not need to hide anymore so I can go and do these...things that I need to do."

Sam can see Gabriel is hiding something.

"Gabriel is everything okay?" Sam asked. "You know we are here if you want to talk about it."

"You are hunters not counsellors." Gabriel laughed. "But seriously I'm fine. You don't need me. The Brit has my grace. You got anything you need." He looks at Rick. "The Winchesters will get you home. I have faith in them...Well good luck...not like you need it but..." He shrugs and smiles.

Then the archangel flaps his wings and vanishes.

The Winchesters, Ketch and Rick arrive at the bunker. Cas frowned when he saw the Englishman walk in. Everyone explained as their set up the spell.

"Gabriel...is alive?" Cas says with disbelief.

"Yeah." Dean nodded.

"All this time he was with Asmodeus?"

"Yeah." Sam nodded.

Cas is shocked yet happy at the same time. Gabriel is the only one out of the archangels who Cas liked. Gabriel wasn't like his brothers. He was probably the most human out of them all.

Heaven will be thrilled when they find out the archangel Gabriel is alive.

"Where is he now?" Cas asked.

"He...He went off." Sam answered.

Cas frowns.

"Why?"

"Its personal." Dean shrugged not feeling bothered. He is happy to have the grace. He couldn't wait to see his mom again.

"Oh..."

Cas tried to think what the personal reason could be.

Dean performs the spell.

The familiar golden line appears in the middle of the room.

"Ok. How long do we have?" Dean asks.

"It should stay open for twenty four hours." Cas answered.

Dean checks his watch.

"Ok. Me and Rick will go. Sam, Cas you stay here."

"I'm coming to."

Ketch walks in with his bullet proof vest on and a range of weapons. He stops and nods.

"I have to."

Ketch couldn't sit back while the others go and rescue Mary. Even though he didn't want to admit it he had feelings for her.

Dean sighs but nods.

"Fine.

"Fine? So you want Ketch to go and not me?" Sam says.

"I don't care if he dies. Hell, I'm kinda rooting for it."

Rick frowns at Dean. Rick doesn't love the Englishman he wouldn't say he is a friend yet but he has been helpful so far and he did save Gabriel.

Sam shakes his head.

"Still, you can't..."

"No, I have to. Someone needs to be here to watch the rift. If something happens to me, if...if...if time runs out, then I need you to come and save me, and save mom, and save whoever else, ok?"

"Dean this is a bad idea." Cas says.

"This is something we are not debating on Cas."

"It's safer if we go together." Sam says.

"There's no such thing as safer over there. You know that. I know you don't like this, ok? I don't expect you to. This is the way it's gonna be. You both are staying here and me, Rick and Ketch are going over there. That's the plan and we are sticking to it."

Sam sighs. He couldn't argue with his brother on this.

"Fine."

"Sam." Cas says.

"That's the plan Cas." Sam says. "We gotta stay here. Watch the rift."

Cas wanted to argue but now wasn't the time. Time is ticking.

Dean checks his watch.

"Ok." He looks at Rick and Ketch. "You ready?" Both men nod. Dean nods back "Alright."

Dean turns towards the rift.

"Lets go."

The three men step into the rift.

Do not worry Gabriel will make another apperance. Pestilence, I would keep him in mind. Asmodeus might have been on to something there *wink wink*Next chapter coming soon.
