Lyra was smirking. "What?" Sammael questioned her.

"Isaac doesn't like Lynn," Lyra said. "But it looks like he likes Serafina." she noticed. "He must like the bad girls."

"That's what I'm talking about." Gabriel praised; Annie and Sarah rolled their eyes.

"Why is Lynn in a coma?" Phoenix demanded. "Is this because of Juliet? I'm gonna kill her!" she threatened. After Lynn said she knew where Juliet was, and after Annie had given her check up, the girl had lapsed unconscious.

"What do you mean, because of Juliet?" Carmen asked her little sister.

"Early this morning, before Lynn came down here, I went to check on her and Juliet was with her. She wanted to know when Lynn first met...Lucifer." Phoenix explained.

"What the hell?" Lyra and Carmen said in unison.

"Why didn't you say this earlier?" Gabriel asked.

Phoenix shrugged. "I didn't think it was important." she said.

"You think Juliet asking Lynn about Lucifer after she went AWOL and took Abby and Levi with her wasn't important?" Gabriel scolded.

"Sorry," Phoenix apologized as she frowned.

"What did Lynn tell her?" Annie asked to diverge.

"That she met him the night he summoned Death." Phoenix said.

Gabriel dropped his mouth open. "You don't think–Juliet–JULIET! That little girl is going to get it now!" he enraged.

"No wonder this Nephilim is loud. She gets it from her absurd father."

Gabriel, Annie, Sarah, Phoenix, Lyra, Sammael, Carmen and Blake could see Death standing at the door. He was holding a thirteen year old Abby in his arms bridal style. "Death," Gabriel growled. "Give me my daughter."

"With utmost pleasure." Death allowed Gabriel to go up to him, taking Abby from his arms and holding her himself.

"Is she okay?" the Archangel asked.

"Yes. I had to shut her up because she was ruthlessly attempting to injure me." the Horseman replied.

Gabriel set Abby against the couch; her sleeping caused her head to roll back, coming in contact with Lynn's waist. Annie immediately knelt down to her to check on her.

"You mind telling me what is going on?" Gabriel asked politely.

"I wouldn't. Maybe if you'd break my bind to her, I'll be glad to." Death proposed.

"...you're bound to Abigail?" Gabriel realized. "How did she do that-? Holy crap!"

"Unfortunately, yes." Death said. "I don't know how she did it. I assume the other older Nephilim helped her."

"Other-? Juliet?" Gabriel guessed. "So she did...what was she thinking?" he grit his teeth. "You tell me what happened, and I will free you." he promised.

Death put his cane in front of him, pressing his hand weight on it. "They wanted help in getting their Graces back. I gave them the Enochian inscribed blade."

"You...did...WHAT?" Gabriel squeaked. "What is wrong with you! Giving kids that weapon-?"

"She," Death nodded at Abby. "Threatened to unleash her," he directed his attention to Phoenix. "On me."

Gabriel craned at his head at his daughters before grinning sheepishly at Death, rocking himself amusingly. "That would have been the end of you."

Death smirked coldly. "Then I sent them back to the night I was first summoned." he finished. "I gave them all day to get Lucifer to bond his Grace into the Blade. I went back to get them, but she was the only one there, so I only brought her back." he concluded.

Gabriel froze. "You're saying you left Juliet and Levi back there with my bitchfitting brother?" he realized.

"This is too far!" Annie exclaimed. "How dare you? You are a Horseman! How could you let a couple of kids boss you around—ignore Gabriel's immaturity about Phoenix—no offense, sweetie—Levi is a six year old little boy; you should be ashamed! You go get my son right now!"

As if ignoring her outrage, Death faced Gabriel. "I've told you what happened. Release me."

Gabriel nodded. "Fair enough. You're sure that Levi is at Carthage?"

"Yes." Death confirmed. Gabriel snapped his fingers, and the chains around Deaths wrists were visible as they shattered completely. "Thank you." Death said.

After he disappeared, Annie said, "I'm going with you."

"I move faster on my own." Gabriel told her reluctantly. But the look she burned into his eyes convinced him otherwise. "Fine." he raised both his hands up to snap his fingers, and they were gone.

"Here we go." Sarah said unhappily.


Sioux Falls, South Dakota
November, 2009

Dean Winchester said, "What the hell, Lynn? Who's the kid?"

"I found him," the Lynn of the past told him. "I went back to try and talk to Lucifer and I saw him hounding this boy." she explained.

"It was foolish of you to go back." Castiel scolded her.

"Shut up. I saved a kid. I'm a hero." Lynn said sarcastically.

Levi opened his eyes. "Lynn-" he said with short breaths. "Take me home." he wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Now you know this kid?" Dean said.

"I've never seen him before," Lynn admitted. "Uh...kid, who are you?" she asked.

"It's me, Levi. Take me home. I want Mama and Dad." Levi pleaded. He stuck his head out and said, "Grampa, call Mama. I don't want her to cry."

Everyone stared at Bobby Singer.

"Don't look at me," he said. "Karen and I never had any kids."

"Uncle Sam? Uncle Dean? Why did you leave Sarah's house? You made Abby mad." Levi told the brothers.

Uncle? And Grampa?

"Look who's having kids now." Bobby joked seriously.

"You don't live in Carthage do you-?" Sam didn't wanna break the news that everyone there was dead.

"I live in Ral-ee." Levi corrected.

"North Carolina?" Bobby realized. "What were you doing in Missouri?"

Levi frowned. "You promise not to tell Mama and Dad?"

"We promise." Lynn said. She had Levi step back so he could explain.

"Bad angels took my powers," he started. "They took Isaac's and Abby's and everyone else's powers too. Juliet said Uncle Luci can help get them back." he sniffed.

"Is it me or does he look familiar." Dean noticed. Bobby and Lynn shot him a look. "Not like that-" he corrected.

"No, I think he looks familiar too." Sam agreed. "Bad angels," he repeated. "What bad angels?"

"I don't know them. Juliet said they escaped the prison." Castiel deemed interested completely.

"I believe this boy is from a future time." he said.

"From the future?" Lynn said. "That's possible-?"

Castiel walked over and knelt down next to Lynn and Levi. "Boy. Who is your father?" he questioned.

Levi raised an eye. "You know who Dad is, Uncle Cas. He's Gabriel." he reminded.

"Whoa," Dean said. "The Archangel-?"

"Explains the familiarity." Sam realized.

"Gabriel-?" Lynn repeated. "That...that makes you my cousin?" she realized.

"Mmhmm." Levi nodded. "Why are you here at Grampa's? Dad said to stay at Sarah's house." he warned.

"Who is Sarah?" Lynn wondered.

"Ly-Ly and Phoenix's mama," Levi said. "Can we go back now?"

"I have no idea what's going on..." Dean muttered. "I get how Cas is his uncle...hell, you could call him that too, Lynn."

Lynn blushed, but shrugged it off. "Why are you calling us Uncle Dean and Uncle Sam?" Dean asked.

"And Grampa?" Bobby added.

"Mama said that's who you are to me, Isaac and Abby. Mama said she know you since you and Uncle Sam were little." Levi told Dean.

"Who is your mom?" Sam asked.

"You know Mama's name." Levi said with a giggle.

"What does your dad call her?" Lynn asked in simpler terms.

"Annie," Levi said.

"Annie-? As in Annie Laughlin?" Sam realized.

"No. No way. Gabriel and Annie? Absolutely not. I say we call her. Now." Dean ordered.

"Juliet said Lucifer can help stop the bad angels," Castiel repeated and interrupted. "How can he help?"

"With the special knife," Levi pulled out the Blade from the back of his pants. "The skeleton horseman said we had to come here so uncle can put his power in it so we can kill the bad angels, and get our powers back." he explained.

Castiel looked at the Blade. "I have never seen one like this. It has Enochian on it."

"What does it all say?" Dean asked curiously.

"It's just markings...of Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. They are very old markings-" he tilted his head. "There are new markings. They are Lucifer's." he realized.

"So that blade has a little of all the Archangels powers in it?" Dean assumed. "Couldn't we use something like that to kill Lucifer?"

"No!" Levi said. "I have to give it back to Abby! She said it's dangerous." he exclaimed.

"And you have it." Dean retorted.

"Juliet gave it to me after the Hellhounds hurt me and Abby." Levi told him.

"You don't look hurt." Sam said.

"Juliet fix'ed me," Levi told him.

"Juliet must be an angel," Sam guessed. "Do you know any Juliet's, Cas?" he asked.

"...yes," Castiel said nervously. "Not personally. I know of an angel child named Juliet Carlisle-"

"Yeah," Levi confirmed.

"She is a child though. Younger than this boy." Castiel informed.

"Nu-uh," Levi denied. "Juliet is a big girl like Abby and Nixxy. She's twelve." he corrected.

Castiel made the calculations in his mind. "This boy is from the year two-thousand seventeen." he announced.

"That's great," Dean said. "Now take that blade and send him home."

"You can't have it." Levi held the Blade against his chest.

"That Blade is not from this time; it would not be wise to use something from the future." Castiel told Dean. "Levi, what do you think today is?" he asked.

"It's Ly-Ly's birthday," Levi said.

"Ly-Ly?" Lynn repeated.

"Lyra, she's one of my big sisters." Levi told her. "I have more sisters than you." he teased.

Dean caught Cas' stare. "I'm gonna take a wild guess that you know who his sister is."

"Yes. Lyra Agate was born on October 8, 1994." Castiel said. "I will send you to October 8, 2017."

Levi went with the flow. "You're coming back too?" he asked Lynn.

"Uh...not...yet. I'm gonna stay here for a while..." she said. "Is that okay?"

"I guess so...Nixxy will miss you," Levi said. "Okay, Uncle Cas, I want to go home."

"How do you know where to send him?" Bobby asked.

"Lyra Agate also lives in Raleigh. I will send him to her house." Castiel decided.

"See you later," Levi said.

"See ya, buddy," Lynn said sadly. This boy was her family. Her real family, from the future, and now he had to go back. She was glad she saved him from Lucifer...

Castiel put two fingers on Levi's forehead, and the little one was gone.
