"We have to talk."
Morgan couldn't have been angrier in his life, "What?" Said through gritted teeth, voice deepened and eyes narrowed. Kansiel could easily tell he was angry but she didn't care. The others in the small apartment were confused, questions running through their heads, only one of them brave enough to ask, and ask she did.
"What the hell is happening? Who are you?" Lily asked as she looked at Kansiel. Kansiel turned to look at her, letting her see her eyes. "You're the girl from the hospital."
"How do you know about that?" She turned again to look at Morgan, "Did you tell them that? Where are you going to tell them that? Something that could potentially hurt them or kill them!?" Now it was her turn to be angry.
"Yeah! They have a right to know!"
Lily and James had a feeling that this wasn't the first time this happened. So, they turned, went back into Morgan's room and let them argue. They both sat down on his bed, listening to the yelling on the other side of the door, stunned.
It's been half an hour and the yelling stopped maybe ten minutes ago. Ten minutes ago they heard wind and chains. They just sat there in the silence, knowing how Morgan was when he was mad or when someone walks out on him, in this case, flies out on him. Lily, being the bravest of them both, decided that he's had enough time to calm down and opened the door to check on him. He was sitting at the small round table with his head in his right hand and phone in his left, talking softly into it. She walked to him, trying to be as quiet as she could.
"-Know. Yeah, okay. Got it. Thanks. Wait I never got your... name." With that Lily walked up to him and put her hand on his shoulder. He didn't jump making her think that he knew she was there. "Hey, how you doing?"
"Fine."
"Who was that?" She nodded to the phone in his hand, now resting on the table.
"Ya know that guy that I was talking about? The uhh nurse guy?"
She moved to cross her arms, "Yeah?"
"That was the guy on the phone."
"Wait, hold on, you called him? Why?"
"He told me to call if I needed any help and I did."
"What'd he say?"
"He said to just leave it, that she'll sort it out on her own."
"That was her?" They both looked over to see James walking over to them and taking a seat, Lily sat down too.
"Yeah." Morgan nodded
"Does that happen a lot?" James being who he was, was curious and need to know everything he could.
"Does what happen a lot?"
"The arguing."
Morgan hesitated, "No." Lily knew when her brother was lying, but she didn't push. There was a moment of silence, with no one knowing what to say. Lily piped up, making Morgan and James jump, saying that they should go get something to eat. "Nah I have to stay here and make sure that if she comes back I can help her. That was another thing he said to do."
"Okay, your loss." Lily looked over at James while he was walking out the door and sighed with shaking her head.
"You know how he is. You sure your okay though?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"'Kay" She walked out the door, closing it behind her. Soon after Morgan let out a sigh, he got out of the chair to move to the couch. He remembered something Kansiel said while near the end of their fight, 'You'll never be like him, so quit trying'. What does that mean, who is 'him'? Why did she say that? He let his mind wander, jumping from subjects like Kansiel to his friends to what his sister and friends are getting, mostly stupid stuff.
Knock Knock
"Coming!" but before he could even get up he heard a voice right behind him, "Already inside." It was a voice full of snark and sass, he jumped maybe two- no three feet high and turned. He saw a short man with golden hair wearing a green jacket and jeans, hands in his pockets.
"Who are you?" Voice shaky and fearful
The stranger held up his hands in surrender, "Whoa sorry for scaring' you man, just looking for my sister."
"And who would that be?"
"Well she was known as Castiel but you humans are really weird and don't stick with a name for lower angels and now she's known as Kansiel."
"You know her? How?"
"Well, let's see I have many names one of the most known being an Archangel," Morgan's eyes widened, "the other being the messenger of God, but my name is Gabriel."
Morgan's brain short-circuited, Wait, what? Gabriel? THE Archangel? How would he know about Kansiel?
"Wow, quite the fanboy we have here." Now Morgan was even more confused.
"Sorry, what?"
"Didn't Kansiel tell you?" Morgan shook his head, "Angels can read minds." He said that as if Morgan was supposed to know that.
But we are supposed to know that. She told us when we asked that one time remember?
Oh yeah, wait if angels can read minds then that means-
"Oh yeah. Angels can only read minds if you want them to, subconscious or not." Gabriel was lying, he wanted to have some fun with this, he knew that Kansiel already knew about this, 'cause he lied and he doesn't think that Morgan ever told her to not read his mind as Dean did. Anyways, it looks like he was able to calm down Morgan.
"Okay so uhh. Why do you need to see Kansiel? Or is this angel business?"
"Just something I have to give her."
"Oh, okay. Do you know who it's from?"
Now Gabriel was confused, why would he want to know who it's from. Then he remembered, he likes Kansiel, Kansiel must have told him about the Winchesters, he must be jealous, oh ho this is gonna be good. "Oh no one, just an old friend. He's been giving her gifts."
Gifts? What kind of gifts?
Didn't you see it? Kansiel had a leather jacket on and I think a necklace.
"Do you know who the friend is?"
"Oh yeah 'course I do."
"Who is he?" Morgan was getting impatient.
"Just one of the best hunters in the world."
Hunters? Is it that what Kansiel called a monster hunter?
"And who would that be?"
"Dean Winchester. Oh, I gotta go, heaven calls and all that." Gabriel flew away, Morgan found it weird that he didn't hear chains follow. Then he heard the door open along with his sister arguing about something stupid, but he didn't turn he was too shocked.
"-because that's not how it works! Hey, Morgan are you okay?" Lily looked over at her brother staring at the wall.
"Hey, James?" He sounded far away.
"Yeah?" James wouldn't admit it, but he was scared.
"You said something about a Winchester. Could you tell me more about them?" Again he wouldn't admit it but he was scared.
"Uhh sure. What do you need to know?" He felt as if he was in an old crime movie talking to the boss of a mafia wanting information on his next target.
Morgan turned and looked him in the eye, "Everything."
Knock knock
"Coming!" Lily was the one to get it as her brother and James were in the bedroom talking about the 'Winchesters', whoever they were. She opened it revealing-
"MORGAN!" Lily's hands moved to cover her ears ducking her head as if the sound could hit her, "Ow." She glared at the girl on the other side of the doorframe. "What are you doing her Emma? Morgan broke up with you like, five years ago."
"Yeah, but he did that because he loves me."
Right, she's stupid. No wonder why she still likes Morgan.
"Emma Lake." Lily turned hearing the girl, Kansiel, from earlier. She remembered feeling a rush of wind along with the sound of chains 'bout ten seconds ago.
"Who are you?" She sounds like she from one of those popular girls from those old movies in the early 2010s.
"Lily that's rude." Kansiel turned her head to look at her directly, as if she was a teacher, scolding her.
"But true!" They all turned and saw Morgan coming out of his room, holding one hand up with a finger pointed to the ceiling soon letting it fall to his side, followed by James. "Hey, Cas." She froze at that, staring at him.
"Wha-what?" Tears formed in her eyes, shoulders tense, voice not as strong as it was before.
"I know who you are. Who Dean was, but he's dead now isn't he?" Now James really felt like he was in an old crime movie.
"Don't talk about him like that." She sounded as if she was on the edge of crying.
"Why? He made you betray heaven for him and his brother. Why would you still even remotely like him?"
"Because he's better then you'll ever be!" Now she was angry and sad, something Dean once promised to never let happen when he was around, and Winchesters keep their promises. From a newly made loop on Kansiel's belt, the shield flew to the front of her and morphed into something softer and lighter, a fluffy blanket, moved to cover her. She didn't know what to do so she just backed up to the wall and slid down it, letting it shield her from the world outside. It was quiet, soon a soft melody started to play, made specifically for a fussy cherub to fall asleep to, and apparently it worked on adult angels too. The room so silent they could hear the sound of metal breaking. It morphed from the blanket to the shield growing in size to where it reached the ceiling. The world around it seemed foggy as the shield changed colors, make a picture of a man known as Dean Winchester, one of the best hunters in the world.
"Hey," He nodded, smiling, with his hands in his green jacket pockets. His eyes like Kansiel's, intense, but green.
