Sorry for the wait football has taken over my life lol. The Euros have been so much fun. It just finished on Sunday so hopefully I can get back into writing again (If I can stop looking at hot footballers that is ha ha)
"Mary." Jack looks at the Winchesters. "You already found her."
"Actually she found us." Dean says.
Jack glances at the huntress.
"I guess she already told you her side of the story."
"Jack." Sam shakes her head. "We're not mad at you okay? We just wanna help you."
"Help?" Jack frowns. "I feel fine."
"You're not fine." Mary replied.
"Oh because I have no soul?" Jack touches his chest. "Mary I told you I can feel emotions."
"I told you before those emotions are not yours. They are Michael's the grace is turning you into Michael."
"I'm not Michael I will never be like Michael." Jack folds his arms. "I hate Michael. I forgot to tell you Michael is back as well but don't worry when I find him." He smiles. "He will wish he stayed dead."
Dean flinched. Jack did find the older hunter's reaction quite odd he thought Dean would be all for making Michael suffer. Shrugging it off Jack raises his hands and says.
"Now that everyone is here and Mary is safe we can all work together and stop Lucifer and Michael from destroying the world."
Mary look like she wanted to argue Dean steps forward and says.
"Absolutely." Dean agreed. "Before we do that you must do this one thing for us."
"What is that?" Jack asks.
"First we gotta move forward right? Put the past behind us."
"Yes."
"What I am about to show you." Dean nods. "It's really going to help us its going to help you."
Jack's face brightened at that.
"Show me."
Dean glances at the others. He then turns and walks down the hallway. Jack eagerly follows. Dean stops outside a door. He then opens the door.
Jack's face fell as soon as the door opened.
"Oh." Dean walks in. Jack stayed where he was. His frown deepens. "Isn't that the box? The one you were..."
"Uh yeah."
"How is the box going to help us?"
"Jack you have no soul. To fight Lucifer and Michael you need a soul it...it will make you stronger."
"It would?"
"Well yeah you killed Michael right? The soul is a powerful weapon. You really need it back."
Jack thought back to the moment he killed Michael. His soul helped him to kill Michael. Dean is right it is a powerful weapon. There is one thing Jack still did not understand.
How does the box play a part in all this?
"Why do we need the box?"
"To bring your soul back." Dean explained. "You gotta go in the box."
"But why?"
"So we can do the spell." Dean nods. "It won't be long I promise. Time you get in there it will be time to get out." He smiles. "You trust us right?"
Jack nods.
"I do."
"Well." Dean's smile widens. "The sooner this is done the sooner we can kick some archangel ass."
"Yeah." Jack beamed.
Dean lifts the lid. Jack goes in and lies on his back.
"You all good kid?" Dean asks.
Jack responds with a thumbs up. Dean nods. Then he closes the lid. The older hunter quickly leaves the room and goes to the War room.
"I can't believe you did that." Mary says.
"I'll admit I was surprised by how easy that was." Dean says.
"No." Mary shakes her head. "Jack trusts us and look what we did."
"We're helping him that's what we are doing."
"I know but..." Mary sighs. "He deserves the truth."
"And risk our plans being ruined? I don't think so."
Mary let's out a frustrated sigh. Cas places his hand on her shoulder. Mary glances at the angel.
"I can't wait for all this to be over."
Cas nods.
"Me too."
"Okay so next part Cas you wanna call him?" Dean says.
Cas sighs and puts his hands together.
Meanwhile Jack lies and waits patiently for his family to come back. After a couple of minutes the nephilim became irritated.
"Hello?" He yells. "Sam, Dean, Castiel!" He takes a deep shaky breath. "Mary!"
Jack felt the grace flare upside him. Thoughts of betrayal flash across his mind.
They don't trust you.
They are lying to you.
This is a trap.
You hurt their mom! They want revenge!
Get out! Get out now!
"NO!"
Jack covers his ears and closes his eyes tight.
"YOU'RE WRONG!"
I'm right and you know I'm right. The voice mocked him. They are not helping you. They want to take your power they want to make you weak.
"They are going to make me stronger."
He heard laughter come from his mind.
Oh Jack. So naïve. Can't you see they are stopping you from reaching your full potential? Think about it did they like it when you got your powers back? Did they let you use your powers on cases or did they make you stand down? Do they seem wary of you? Afraid of you?
Jack swallows as he processes the questions. His breath hitched as he thought back to moments where they did look like they were scared of him. When he lost his powers they did look relieved they were glad he was human. Now thinking about it they never bothered to help him when it regarded his powers. They didn't want him to be powered up.
They never wanted him to reach his full potential.
They say the truth hurts. The voice sighed. I get it okay? You wanted to trust them. Sorry pal you can't trust anyone these days. Only person you should look out for is yourself. First you gotta get out of this box.
"How do I do that?"
Oh. The voice smirked. Let me take care of that.
As soon as Cas finished the prayer there is the sound of fluttering. Suddenly Lucifer appears with Rowena and Anael. Rowena pulls away from his grasp. She looked like she is going to be sick. Lucifer steps forward and clears his throat.
"Okay red." He says. "You know what to do."
Rowena opens her mouth to answer. Suddenly there is a crash. Everyone turns round and sees the door flying across the hallway.
"What the Hell?" Dean says.
Before any of them could make a move a figure steps out of the room.
"Jack." Cas yelled.
The nephilim turns round. His eyes glow gold. Everyone watched as the nephilim walked towards them. He then stops and a grin forms on his face.
"Did you really think you can stop me?"
Jack raises his hand. A wave of power comes out and sends everyone flying back.
"I knew it." He points at the Winchesters. "I knew you were lying me! You're working with Lucifer, the Devil!"
Sam gets to his feet.
"Jack." He sighs. "We can explain."
"STAY DOWN!"
Sam drops down to the ground. He gasps as he felt something pushing him down.
"HEY LEAVE HIM ALONE!" Dean yelled.
As Dean stands up Jack flicks his wrist and sends Dean flying into the table.
"SHUT UP!" Jack glared. "ALL OF YOU!"
"Son." Lucifer stands up. "I'm not gonna hurt you."
Jack turns towards the Devil. His face darkens.
"You might not hurt me, I will hurt you." His lips curl upwards into a wicked grin. "And I am going to enjoy it."
Jack raises his hands. A ball of power forms. He then throws it towards Lucifer.
"NO!"
Dean jumps in front of the Devil and gets hit by the blast. The force sends Dean on his back. The hunter trembled. His body spasms.
"DEAN!" Sam cried out.
Then Dean stops and his body goes still.
"Dean...DEAN!"
Sam runs to his brother's side.
"Dean." Sam shook his brother's shoulders. "Dean wake up. Wake up!"
Mary goes to the other side.
"Dean!" She said her voice full of worry.
Jack slowly lowers his hand. His eyes widen with shock.
Cas stands up and looks at the nephilim.
"Jack?" He said his expression wary.
Jack turns towards the angel.
"I'm sorry." He looks at everyone. His eyes shine with tears. "I'm sorry."
"Jack."
Cas goes to approach him. Jack quickly flaps his wings. Seconds later he vanishes. Cas sighs heavily.
"I got a pulse." Sam yells. He turns his attention back to his brother. "Come on Dean come on wake up please wake up!"
"Do you know what I don't understand." Lucifer says. "Why did Dean save me? The guy hates me why would he put his life on the line for me?"
"Maybe because you are needed for the ritual?" Anael frowned.
Lucifer shakes his head
"No that's not the reason."
Lucifer steps forward and looks down at the older hunter's body. Suddenly Dean's eyes open. He turns his head and glares at the Devil.
"A thank you would have been nice."
Lucifer blinks in shock.
"Michael?"
At first Dumah saw darkness. She couldn't see the younger Winchester or Castiel. Suddenly the room shook and a loud explosion can be heard. She heard Bryce yelp in shock and his chair goes sideways and falls on the ground. As soon as he hit the ground the connection goes dead.
Dumah gasps and removes her hands. The werewolf takes several steps back and his eyes widen with horror.
"What the Hell was that?"
Dumah shakes her head. Her eyebrows furrow.
"I umm...umm..."
"What are you doing?"
Dumah froze at the new voice. She slowly turns round.
"Jack?"
The nephilim looks at the werewolves. His face is puzzled. He then walks towards the angel.
"What are you doing?" He repeats.
The werewolves are about to attack but Dumah silently orders them to stand down. She smiles as the nephilim stands in front of her.
"I'm going to kill Lucifer." She raises her eyebrow. "You want in?"
Jack frowns.
"Are you still going to save Heaven?"
"Yes!" Dumah circles the nephilim. "It's my home...our home." She stops and lays a hand on his shoulder. "You can still make your Grandfather proud."
The werewolves frown at her. Dumah gave them a stern look. If she can get Jack back on her side again this will make her plan so much easier.
She had to hope Jack will say yes.
"I messed up." Jack sighs. "They hate me." He lowers his eyes. "They all hate me. I haven't got a home here anymore. Would Heaven really accept me?"
"Yes of course we will accept you. We are your family.
Jack smiles at the mention of family. His face then turned serious.
" You will not lie to me. You will not betray me. "
Dumah nods.
"I promise."
Jack's face softens.
"Okay. What do you need me to do?"
Dumah folds her arms and grins .
"This is what we are going to do."
