Chapter 25: Who We Are
Over the past few weeks, I kept mostly to the villa doing my best to help Sam and Dean on the Alpha's as well as getting Sam's soul back. I, unfortunately, wasn't anywhere near powerful enough to attempt something such as that so all I could do was find a way to do it. Castiel was on hiatus for the time being making me wonder just what he was trying to do in Heaven but I decided just to leave him alone afraid to push him farther away.
I heard my phone go off as I answered it saying, "Hey Deano."
"Hey, we need your help." He said while I heard him give the address as I smiled appearing beside him saying, "What are we killing now?"
"Your boss." He said making me tilt my head saying, "You know he won't answer my calls right, he thinks I'm helping you kill him… no idea where he got that information."
"I'm sorry to drag you in all this but I don't trust the demon we are working with… and I can't trust Sam right now." Dean said while I replied, "What demon?"
"Sam made a deal with Meg to help kill Crowley, he figured you wouldn't but he knew she would." Dean said making me scrunch my nose remembering her from when Lucifer raised Death saying, "Do we have to?"
"Don't worry she's dead once Crowley is." Dean said assuring me while I looked around saying, "Where is Sammy anyway?"
"Summoning Cas, we will need him too." Dean said feeling my chest tighten at the thought of seeing him again hearing the door open watching Sam and Castiel walk in.
"Hey, Cassy." I said quietly while he looked towards me saying, "It's good to see you're well Evelyn."
I smiled towards him as Dean explained they want to try a tracking ritual to find Crowley which Castiel insists he does as we all watched him quietly. I looked over Castiel, he looked tired and almost sad, I could only imagine he'd been fighting nonstop against the other angels and despite me telling him I would help he refused to ask.
After the ritual failed we decided our best course of action was to ask Samuel whom I knew would be like pulling teeth and I should know, it was pretty difficult. We teleported to Samuel's compound as he looked towards us all surprised.
"We need your help finding Crowley." Dean said while Samuel scoffed saying, "Why not get your demon friend or angel here to help."
"Boss is hiding from me and Castiel tried but failed." I said crossing my arms watching him roll his eyes saying, "Well I'm not helping either."
"Why the hell not? What does Crowley have over you?" Dean asked seeing Samuel look away for a moment seeing sadness pass over his face saying, "Mary."
"You're doing this so he brings our mom back?" Sam asked while he nodded seeing Dean say, "You're making a mistake, you shouldn't use a deal to bring back the dead."
"That's quite hypocritical of you." Samuel said while I frowned saying, "Look I know you don't trust me and all but trust me when I say whatever deal you made isn't worth it."
"How the hell would you know, you're just a demon." He said while I said, "I was human once you know and made a deal and trust me at first it may seem good but in the end, you'll live to regret it."
He sighed turning away from us staying quiet while I felt Castiel beside me looking over at me giving me a small smile seeing Samuel turn back to us saying, "Alright fine, you guys win."
Once we got the location that Samuel dropped off the creatures at we met up with Meg as I glared towards her seeing her smirk saying, "Well howdy Evelyn, surprised you're still alive."
"Funny I could ask you the same thing." I said while she laughed feeling Dean and Castiel look between us frowning, boy, this was not going to be fun.
We made our way through the facility seeing creatures locked behind cages making me frown walking closer to Castiel seeing Meg look towards the both of us for a moment before turning away. I heard light growling behind us stopping in my tracks knowing that sound all too well.
"Hellhounds, we gotta run." I said as they followed behind me until we came to a room rounding the corner as they caught their breath while I said, "We are going to have to hold them off."
I watched Meg try to smoke out of her meat suit while Castiel said, "This place is warded you won't be leaving."
"Pussy." I said quietly while she eyed me for a moment saying, "Alright you think you're so tough, help me take out the Hellhounds and get to Crowley."
Sam walked over to Meg handing her the demon-killing knife as I gripped the angel blade tightly seeing Meg stare at it from the corner of her eye. I suddenly saw her advance on Castiel pushing him up against the wall kissing him hard as he froze in place. Now I'm not a very jealous person but something snapped in me watching her hands and lips travel along my Castiel. Wait, my Castiel… no damn right he was mine and that bitch was gonna die.
She pulled away giving me a smirk knowing I was silently seething inside as I watched Dean and Sam walk off while Castiel lingered on me for a moment seeing the pain in my eyes before walking away.
"I can see why you like him so much, he's rather tasty." She said smugly while I laughed darkly saying, "I'd be focusing on the Hellhounds, I'm not gonna save you when they attack."
She waved Castiel's other angel blade winking while I growled but it was cut off seeing Hellhounds burst through the door. I was angry and something was going to die, slow and painfully, too bad it was the Hellhounds first.
I panted lightly feeling the stickiness of the blood smeared on my clothes and blade while Meg stood beside me just as winded. All the hellhounds lay dead around us but we were surprised by demons coming to grab us easily taking us down in our wounded state.
I fought against my restraints while Meg was chained to a wall as I cried out in pain feeling the Demon blade pierce my skin as blood dripped from the wound.
"Who would have thought Crowley's number one bitch would betray him like this. I'm ashamed in you Evelyn, throwing your lot with the humans and a filthy angel." The demon taunted shoving the blade into my thigh as I grunted in pain feeling tears fill my eyes.
"Don't you worry though, we have a plan for them… especially lover boy." He said leaning down stroking my hair as my eyes looked up laughing.
"What's so funny?" he asked while I said, "Deano is behind you."
He gave me a funny look until the demon blade was thrust through his chest watching him fall to the ground dead. Dean quickly unstrapped me while Sam went over to Meg wincing at the pain in my thigh.
"Where is Cassy?" I asked weakly as Dean said, "Samuel betrayed us and used the banishing spell to get him away, don't worry I'm sure he's fine."
I nodded rubbing my wrists grabbing both of Castiel's angel blades seeing Meg glare towards me but I stuck my tongue out saying, "Alright now I'm pissed let's finish this."
It was easy enough to trick Crowley into a devil's trap but I still felt bad and saw the betrayal in his face making me a tad bit guilty. Meg began torturing him to get information on getting Sam's soul back but Crowley admitted with honesty that he would be unable to retrieve it from the pit.
"He's telling the truth." I said looking towards them while Sam looked at Meg saying, "Alright a deals a deal you finish this."
He handed her the demon knife as she smirked walking towards him but he was able to get out of the trap taking the knife from her glaring towards us all. He began to walk towards us feeling myself block in front of Dean and Sam much to Crowley's surprise.
"After all I've done for you, you choose to save them?" Crowley said while I frowned saying, "No, I choose to save myself."
He took another step feeling slight fear build up inside me when a flutter of wings came to my side seeing Castiel holding a sack. I blinked at them looking over at Crowley seeing the fear cross over his face as the bag was lit on fire. I watched Crowley begin to burn screaming out as my eyes widened, they actually found his bones.
In the heat of the moment I saw Meg go to bolt but I grabbed her head keeping her in place shoving the angel blade through her heart whispering darkly, "No one kisses my angel."
She cried out falling to the ground lifeless as Castiel, Sam and Dean all stared at me surprised but I simply laughed innocently saying, "What… you guys were going to kill her anyway."
We made our way out of the compound breathing the fresh air as Castiel turned towards us saying, "The war for Heaven hasn't been going well… sometimes I wish I could stay here on Earth with you guys…"
I frowned at his words putting my hand gently on his shoulder saying, "We miss you too Cassy."
He turned towards Sam saying, "I will find some way to get your soul back Sam, that I promise you."
Castiel looked towards me as I handed him one of his blades not meeting his eyes before giving me one more apologetic frown then fluttered away again as I turned to the boys saying, "So operation Sam's Soul Retrieval now I take it?"
"Guys… I don't think I want to get my soul back…" Sam said seeing Dean frown followed by me, just when I thought things were looking easier the soulless one has to ruin it.
I know Meg doesn't die in the show but I just had to do it.
