The story takes place right after the season 10 finale, after Dean killed Death, the Mark of Cain was removed and Darkness was released into the world. I mentioned before, new characters will be added and thrown in the story and I will bring back several former characters from the show in the upcoming future.
Chapter 106 A Negotiation, A Plan, A Mission
Dean and Sam had listened to Rowena's ultimatum and had made up their mind that getting Charlie back was more important than keeping her captured. They knew they had to do whatever it took to rescue Charlie even if it means going along with Rowena's conditions. They were just so thrilled to see her face on that video recording and hear her voice on the iphone. Even though she was under Rowena's spell, she sounded like the same old Charlie they know and love and once they have Rowena remove the spell, they will have her back again and they will make sure not to lose her again. But before either of them could speak up Crowley cut in once again ruining their pleasure.
"Sorry once again to be a drag, but no deal. I agreed to help find mumsy here and let her bring the Hardy boys back from wherever hell she shipped them off too under the condition she would be handed to me and I plan on keeping that deal" he said sternly.
"Crowley" said Sam but Crowley cut him off before he had a chance to say more.
"Forget get it luv, I'm sorry about your gal pal, but a deal is a deal and I don't plan on letting my mum get away after all this time and trouble I went through to track her down not even for your little girlfriend. Dear mother here, is coming with me" he told them.
"Crowley, come on man, I'm grateful for you helping Castiel finding Rowena and as much as want more than anything for gank this bitch, we need to get Charlie back, she is far more important to us. You can always track Rowena down again, I mean if you were able to find her now you will be able to find her again, but we need to get Charlie" Dean explained trying to appeal to him.
But Crowley just listened and didn't seem to be moved or was trying to appear he was unmoved.
"Like I said before no can do, she's coming with me" he fired back.
"Crowley please, this is a chance to get their friend back. And it's true, you can always track down Rowena again, I'll even help you if necessary but let them go and find their friend who they thought had died and bring her back" Castiel pleaded on the brothers' behalf.
Crowley only shook.
"Absolutely not, I'm not giving up a chance to imprison my dear mother after everything she's done to me not for anything in the world including the Winchesters" he fired back.
"Oh, that's my dear boy, so precious that a mother could love" Rowena replied sarcastically.
"Hey, you find out just I precious I can be Oh mummy once I get you back in hell" he told her harshly.
During this time, Dean had leaned over to Sam and whispered something in his ear and Sam whispered back. Then Dean turned to Crowley.
"Hey Crowley, I like a word with you in private if you don't mind" he told him. Crowley turned to face Dean.
"It will do you no good, I'm not budging on this" he told him.
"Just give me a minute of your time to hear me out and if you still feel the way you do than I know I can't stop you" Dean said.
Crowley just nodded his head.
"Very well then old Deano pal, but it still won't do you any good" he said.
"Let's go upstairs to talk in private" Dean suggested.
"Alright' replied Crowley.
Crowley walked over to where Dean was and soon the two stood together. Dean then lifted his hand out with a gesture.
"After you" he told Crowley.
Crowley just walked and headed up the stairs with Dean following behind. Dean then turned around to give Sam a glance and gave him a signal with his eyes and Sam nodded back as then he turned around continued to follow Crowley upstairs. They both were upstairs and Dean closed the basement door. They then entered to the hall and Crowley turned around to face Dean.
"Like I told you before back there, there is nothing you can do and say to persuade me to let you fellas walk out of here with my mother not even to help your dear little friend" he told Dean.
"Hey, Crowley, I'm begging here, we got to find our friend Charlie. Please, please reconsider, this is very important to me and Sam. And if you let us go along with her on this deal, once we get Charlie back, she's all yours. "We'll hold her there and contact you to come and get her" Dean replied.
"Don't be a fool Dean, my mother is far too clever allow you the opportunity to capture her again. No, she'll be extra sure she'll be able to get away this time. In fact, she will probably expect you to double-cross her and has a back-up plan" Crowley said.
"Maybe so, but even if that's true, like I said before if we do let Rowena go, you can always track her down and again until you find her and if you need to, me and Sam will help you track her down if that's what it will take for you to help us" Dean said.
But Crowley wasn't convinced as he shook his head. "No, at all the trouble I had tracking her this is no bloody way in hell I'm just letting her go not even for this Charlie buddy of yours, no dice" he said.
"Come on man, you helped us before, you even helped Castiel locate Rowena so she can get us out from where she shipped us off to" Dean said in a pleading tone.
"Like I told you, I had my own reasons for helping Castiel, I wanted to get that bitch of a mother of mine after everything she put me through and you and Sammy dear were killing two birds with one stone but I have nothing to gain letting you leave here with my mother just something to lose" said Crowley.
"Hey Crowley, you helped us in the past before, you even worked with Sam to make Rowena find a spell to get rid of the Mark" said Dean still in a pleading tone.
"Yeah, and look where that got me, your dear baby brother tried to kill me on my dear mother's orders" said Crowley.
"Sam, was just desperate to get the Mark off me, he would agree to anything Rowena wanted to do that's what it took" said Dean.
"Funny, he sure didn't have any squams about trying to gank me as he reminded me what all the terrible things I've done to you fellas" said Crowley.
"Well, you know Crowley it's not like you been a boy scout, you are the King of Hell" Dean replied.
"Yes, I know and in way Sam's actions just enlightened me, reminding what I was and that I've gotten just a bit too soft recently. Well, no more, the true King of Hell is truly back, no more being Mr. Nice Guy" replied Crowley.
"Well, couldn't you just help us out this once for old time's sake. I mean I just figured recently you and me just had an understanding you know, I mean like the time I was a demon and we globed around the world together it almost seemed like…" Dean replied.
"Like what, we're besties, well you proved that weren't when you bailed out of the deal to kill that broad but killed her husband instead, humiliated me in front of my demons and told me point blank that we are not friends" Crowley interrupted.
"But we aren't exactly enemies anymore either not in the true sense, we have this understanding for while gotten a bit closer even if we never become friends, we can be useful allies to each other when necessary. I mean you and your demons worked alongside Castiel and the angels to help bring down the Darkness, what can't you help me and Sam here for this one task?" said Dean.
"That was totally different there Deano, Darkness was not just threat to mankind and the angels but to us demons too, it was necessary evil to work alongside those saintly creatures upstairs if it meant getting rid of Darkness forever" Crowley said.
Dean was getting more agitated not being able to get through to Crowley just walked up to him a bit closer and looked square at him.
"But you can consider this the same thing, you help us, me and Sam will owe you one again and can help you track Rowena down if we find her first, we'll contact you. Crowley please man I'll do anything if you let us do this" Dean pleaded sounding desperate.
Crowley paused a few seconds thinking over but then he looked Dean straight in the eye.
"Nope sorry there Deano. You see whatever understanding we supposed to of have is now gone. I'm no longer you Winchester's sidekick, bitch or whipping boy. I may help you guys out if it benefits me too but other than that no deal. The true King of Hell is back and I'm not playing nice anymore so nice try Dean, but I won't bite" said Crowley as he gave Dean a friendly pat on the shoulder.
Dean just sighed. "Is that your final word Crowley" he asked exasperated.
"It is" said Crowley unmoved.
"Well you know Crowley, I'm not giving up, I was hoping I could reason with you alone thinking we had this understanding between us but maybe if I can't reason with you Castiel can, we cannot lose a chance of finding Charlie" said Dean.
"Oh stop your whining about your little gal buddy, I'm sure she's fine wherever she is at least she's alive and well, you should be grateful for that and maybe with old dear buddy Castiel you can find her one day, don't know when but it is not my problem" he said. "
We'll see" replied Dean.
"We certainly will" replied Crowley smugly.
A couple of minutes later, the two were now heading downstairs again with Crowley ahead still talking to Dean.
"Hey Deano, there is no use to continue to try sway me, my mind is made up no hard feelings there, old buddy" Crowley told him snarkily.
Once downstairs, Dean just gave Sam a look as he shook his head.
"So, I take it you weren't able to convince him then?" Sam asked.
"Nope, he just wouldn't budge" said Dean looking defeated.
"Oh come now boys, I along with angel pal here made my dear mummy bring you to girls back to wherever utopia nightmare she sent you, so be grateful for that but like I told big brother here, I'm not letting my mother go not even for your back from the dead old chum, sorry that's just the way it is, so it's been fun but I'll be leaving now and dear mother is going with me" he said.
"Oh, that's my dear boy, if only you were like this before, not willing to compromise your ways for morality and goodness I would have been so proud" said Rowena half sarcastic and half impressed by her dear son's ruthlessness.
"Well, I'm glad to finally you make you proud mumsy and you are going to be even more proud now" he told her.
Then he walked over to where Rowena was standing with Castiel holding the end of the chain attached to shackle around her neck. He went up to grab the chain from Castiel. As he we was walking towards her he suddenly stopped as it seemed he couldn't move any further as something was preventing him from being able to walk anymore.
"What the bleeding hell?" he cried out.
Then he suddenly knew what made him stop and on instinct he looked up at the ceiling and that's when he saw it. A devil's trap written in black maker drawn on the ceiling which he didn't even notice because he was so focused on getting to his mother and transporting both of them out of there. How could he have been so stupid to not occur to him that they would dry a devil's trap which explains why Dean wanted to talk to him alone upstairs stalling for time while Sam drew up the devil's trap.
"Bloody hell, you guys set me up" he cried out angry more so at himself for being so easily fooled.
"Well, Sam had help" said Castiel who pulled out a black magic marker from his trench coat.
"You son-of a bitches, and after everything I did to help you guys, ingrates stabbing me in the back!" Crowley yelled in anger.
"We're sorry Crowley but you gave us no choice" said Dean.
"Yeah man, we have to find Charlie, that's the only thing important to us right now more so than capturing Rowena" replied Sam.
"I'm telling you this is the last time I will ever help any of you bloody bastards again, never expect a favor from me again, never summon me again!" Crowley cried out in rage.
"Oh, calm down dear son, not be such a sore spot it's all for a good cause" said Rowena smugly.
"You never do anything for a good cause mummy" Crowley yelled back.
"I'm talking about me" she fired back.
"Enough of this, Rowena we only agreed to this to find Charlie but I'm telling the next time we catch up to you there are no more deals, we're taking care of you once and for all you got that" replied Dean in a stern tone.
"Oh, I just love it when you get all tough there Dean, it's so sexy" she replied snarkily.
Dean just rolled his eyes. "Okay everybody upstairs now" he directed to the rest of the group.
As they were heading upstairs, Crowley continued on with his ranting and raving threatening to get even as he just stood there now stuck in a devil's trap. After they were all upstairs Sam closed the basement door to drown out Crowley's ranting.
"Oh, I guess he isn't too happy" Dean said sarcastic.
"You know Dean, I'm worried about this, won't he get angry for you this, would he carry out his threat to get revenge" said Ava.
"Yes, I'm a bit concerned about this too" said Gwen.
"I'm still dazzled at the thought that the king of hell is trapped in my basement" replied Madame Bess trying to lighten the mood.
"Don't worry at all, we've dealt with Crowley in the past, we can more than handle him. He's just throwing a tantrum right now, but he'll bounce back" replied Dean.
"Are you sure about this, he looked pretty angry" said Gwen sill concerned.
"We're sure like I said we have history with Crowley and long experience with him, we know what makes him tick" said Dean.
"Yeah, we aren't afraid of him, he probably won't have anything to do with us until it's benefits him but don't worry about Crowley and his raving" said Sam.
"Right now the only thing we can focus on is finding our friend Charlie" said Dean.
"Yes, I guess we are going on a trip now" replied Rowena sarcastically.
"You know I can come along with you, you guys can use an extra hand" replied Ava.
"Hey, me and grandmom can be quite useful with our abilities" said Gwen.
"My granddaughter is right, after everything we are more than willing to help" said Madame Bess.
But Rowena just shook her head.
"Sorry girls, this is a party of three only, just me and the boys no room for more" she replied smugly.
Dean walked over to Ava with a sorrowful look on his face.
"I'm sorry Ava, but me and Sam got to do this one on our own" he told her.
Ava looked a bit surprised and a bit hurt of Dean's remark.
"But I just thought after everything we been through in that underworld, we made a great team back there and I could help" she said.
"Ava, I will always remember everything we been through back there and believe me, you do make a great partner, I know we've been through quite a lot but with this thing with finding our friend Charlie, this is just something me and Sam got to do" Dean said.
"And don't forget me" Rowena reminded smugly as Dean turned to give her an annoyed look.
Sam then turned to Gwen and Madame Bess.
"Yeah, Dean is right, we have to this on are own, but I too treasure everything we've been through together, but right, I hope you understand" he told Gwen as he was standing close to her and they glared at each other.
"Yes, Sam I guess I understand, but I have to say this is well…" Gwen couldn't finish her words.
"Yes, I know" said Sam finishing her sentence as if he knew what she was trying to say.
They had gotten so used to being together and this trip of his and Dean with Rowena will be the first time since being stuck in that painting that they would be apart. Dean and Ava were thinking the same thing as it really hit them. Rowena unimpressed just rolled her eyes.
"Oh how so romantic" she said sarcastically.
"Shut it Rowena" replied Dean.
"You know I could come along to help and watch over Rowena and make sure she doesn't cross you guys again" said Castiel as he didn't want to risk losing the guys again after finding them all this time.
"Hey, angel babe, like we said before, this is a three-party mission only no fourth wheel or the deal is off, besides I don't want him using his angel powers against me" said Rownea.
"Shut up Rowena" Dean told her again then glanced at Castiel.
"I'm sorry Castiel but I'm afraid we got to go along with Rowena on this one, we can't risk not finding Charlie, besides we need you here to look after the women and Adam" said Dean.
"Oh great I get left behind again after finding you guys" said Adam a bit upset of the thought of them going off again just when he's found them.
Sam went over to Adam.
"Adam, we are so thrilled to see you again and there is so much catching up to do but right now it's important for us to find our friend Charlie" he explained to him.
Then Dean walked up to Adam.
"Hey, Adam believe me we missed you and once we come back with Charlie, all of us will catch up like one big happy family, I promise" said Dean.
Adam smiled a bit but still he didn't look too happy, so Dean just put his hand on his shoulder.
"Hey, I do need you to do one thing for us, though kiddo" he told him.
"What's that?" asked Adam.
"I need you to keep the women company, maybe show them around back at the bunker" said Dean.
"The bunker?" asked Adam confused as every else turned to him too not feeling confused by his remark.
"Yeah, by the way, I have to ask you Castiel if you now that you got your wings back, can you teleport everybody to the bunker" said Dean turning to Castiel.
Castiel eyes lit up in curiosity as did the others.
"Sure, but any reason why?" Castiel asked.
"Yeah, Dean why do you want all of us back to your bunker?" asked Ava also confused.
"For cautious reasons, I don't want to leave any of you alone in this house with Crowley trapped in the basement. I mean he's quite pissed and when Crowley is that mad he gets vengeful and I don't want to risk leaving all stuck with him" Dean explained.
"But he's stuck in the devil's trap which renders demons helpless remember" replied Ava.
"Crowley is anything but helpless" Dean told her.
"Yeah but remember I'm a hunter too, I've handled demons before, and I can even handle the King of Hell and protect anybody if it's necessary which I don't think it is" she told him.
"Besides, I can stick around and keep an eye on Crowley, now with my full power back I'm even stronger than before" said Castiel.
"Yes, we have an angel and a hunter here, I'm sure we will be alright here with, plus as you said that Crowley is helpless snow he's in that trap" said Madame Bess.
"Yeah, I know but as I recall we also had Rowena trapped in that basement too and she managed to escape with the help from one of her witch pals, I don't want to take a chance leaving any of you alone with Crowley of all, guys, who is now one pissed demon in case he has a trick up his sleeve, especially one of his demon henchmen showing up to help him. Please I will just feel better if you all were all out of his reach all together. So please just go along with me with this. Let Castiel transport all of you to the bunker at least until we get there with Charlie" said Dean pleadingly.
"I have to go with Dean on this one, I'd feel better to if you all were away from Crowley, especially after what happened with Rowena here" said Sam as Rowena just smirked.
"So true, if I can escape from your lot, my dear son sure could so I vote with the Winchesters here" she said smugly.
"Nobody gave you a vote" remarked Dean giving her another annoyed look.
"Hey, just trying to help boys, no need to get saucy" replied Rowena.
Dean turned back to the others.
"Anyway, could you all please just agree to stay at the bunker for now" pleaded Dean.
After pausing for a moment Madame Bess spoke up first.
"Well, if it would really make you feel better dear, I agree and hopefully Gwen here, I too would feel safer not stuck in the same house with the King of Hell" said Madame Bess.
"I'm with my grandmom on this one, I go" said Gwen.
Ava just sighed in defeat.
"Okay, Dean I'll stay at the bunker even though I'd rather go with guys" she said.
"I wish you could too but it's better this way" said Dean.
"Hate to be stuck back in the bunker again while you guys go away for another mission after just getting you back all this time, don't want to risk losing you two again" Adam said.
"I know Adam, but we got to do this but believe me when I say we won't be away too long this time, we will be back with Charlie and we'll introduce you to her, I'm sure you two will hit it off real well" Dean told him.
"Looking forward to it" Adam said.
"Just make our guests feel welcomed, show them around keep them happy, until we get back can you do that for us Adam" said Dean. Adam nodded his head.
"I'll be the perfect host" he said now smiling trying to keep a brave front although he was still bothered and scared of his brothers leaving again and not coming back.
"That's good little brother" Dean said giving him another pat on the shoulder.
Dean then turned to Castiel. "By the way Cas, could you just stay at the bunker too and look after everything while we're gone, I mean you can pop back here to release Crowley and just pop back to the bunker and you know just keep and eye on everyone?" he asked him.
Castiel nodded his head.
"Sure thing Dean just you and Sam get back safely this time" said he said to him like a concerned relative.
"We will this time" said Dean.
Dean then turned to Ava again.
"By the way Ava, I'm going to need to ask you for a favor" he told her.
"What is it?" she asked.
"You see, I'm going to need to borrow your van" he said.
"What for?" asked Ava.
"Your van has more room to hide Rowena, I mean we can't have her being seen in our car with a big chain collar around her neck, it could attract attention, I mean would if somebody got the wrong idea, your van it just better hiding her than our car. We will bring it back here once we get Charlie" said Dean.
Ava sighed a bit again.
"Oh very, well then, okay" said Ava. Dean smiled in relief.
"Thanks, I owe you one for this Ava" he said.
"You sure do, my keys are my purse in my bedroom, I'll just go upstairs and get them" she said.
"Perfect" replied Dean as Ava walked out and headed upstairs in a hurry.
Castiel then turned to Dean again.
"Dean, since I'm not coming along you guys, can you just give me a call once you and Sam find Charlie?" he asked.
Before Dean could answer Rowena spoke up.
"Absolutely not, I don't want you summoning or even phoning your angel buddy here and risk you tipping him off where we are now that he got his wings back" she cried.
"Then we won't tell Castiel where we are" Sam said.
Rowena just nodded her head.
"I still won't take that chance. I know for a fact that your angel buddy isn't able to trace you because you have those enochian sigils corked inside your beautiful bodies" she said with a smirk.
"How could you possible know that?" asked Sam.
"Wouldn't you like to know luv" Rowena replied with a sly look on her face.
Her face expression changed to serious again. "Anyway, my point I don't want risk you tipping off your little sidekick here to pop up and use his powers against me and even if you don't summon him I know you can still phone him up so I will have to insist you leave your phones behind" she said.
"What, are you kidding there is no way in hell…." said Dean exasperated with Rowena's demands.
But Rowena cut him off. "I insist if you want me to tell where you can find your precious Celeste oh, I mean Charlie, or else the deal is off" she said in a commanding tone.
"Come on Rowena, this is getting ridiculous, like I said before we promise not to tell anyone where we are" said Sam trying to reason with Rowena but she wouldn't budge.
"Not only do I insist you leave behind your phones but also your guns, don't want to take a chance on some witch-killing bullets" she said.
"No freaking way, Rowena, now way in hell are we going with you off god's nowhere unarmed" Dean fired back really getting impatient.
Just then Ava came back down the stairs having found her keys and was curious after overhearing part of the argument. She went right to Dean.
"Here are the keys, just take care of my van okay. By the way what is going on here, what did I miss" she replied.
"Oh, nothing dear, just a little disagreement between me and boys over them giving up their phones and guns when we go out on our little trip" replied Rowena.
"What" cried out Ava.
"It seems Rowena here, wants the boys to leave behind their phones and guns or else she won't take them to their friend" said Madame Bess.
"What?" exclaimed Ava again.
"Oh, don't get your knickers in a knot dear, I just informed the boys here for cautious reasons that it would be best to leave behind their weapons and phones, for my safety of course" she replied trying to sound so innocent.
"What about our safety, how can you guarantee that we aren't being set up if we go with you with this place unarmed unable to protect ourselves or contact Castiel" replied Sam.
"I have my word nothing will happen to you, there is no trap, I swear" she said.
"Your word doesn't mean much" said Dean.
"But that is the only thing I have, you don't have a choice to take my word if you want to find your Charlie anytime soon, so what will it be?" Rowena replied.
Dean and Sam just glance at each other with conflicted looks feeling quite torn about all of this but realized they don't have any other choice to go along with whatever Rowena wants if they want to find Charlie right now and neither of them are willing to risk not finding her or waiting a long time to.
"Dean, Rowena is right, we don't have a choice here but to just give in" Sam said and Dean gave him a look that he agreed.
"This is crazy, she's making you two go along with unarmed and possibly being running into a trap" cried out Ava outraged by this suggestion.
"I'm afraid I'll have to agree, this is quite risky and you two will be defenseless now against someone like her" said Madame Bess,
"That goes for me too" said Gwen. "
I stand by my terms, either no weapons or no Celeste er Charlie" Rowena said.
"As much as I don't like this, we have to go along with her" said Dean.
"We just want to get Charlie back and if that means doing what Rowena wants, so be it" said Sam defeated.
"Yeah, we are not willing let Charlie be in Rowena's hands any longer than she has to especially under her voodoo spell" replied Dean.
"Hey, there is nothing voodoo about my spells but I'm glad you're thinking reasonably" she replied.
"I'm just worried about all of this" said Ava to Dean concerned look on her face.
Dean walked up to Ava and gently touched her face.
"Not to worry, me and Sam will be alright, I mean we were alright when we were stranded in that hellhole enchanted forest, me and Sam will be alright, we will come out of this and have Charlie home with us and I want all of you to meet her" Dean said filled with hope.
"Well, I would like to meet any friend of yours, from what you told me she is someone very important to you" she told him.
"She is" said Dean.
"Just get back safely okay Dean' said Ava.
"I will" he told her.
Ava looked at Dean like she wanted to say something else but she knew this wasn't the time to discuss what she really wanted to discuss with about them and their relationship. So only thing she did was draw closer to him and kissed him passionately on the lips and he kissed her back like they were lovers as the others just stared in amazement.
"Wow" cried out Adam with a stunned look on his face.
Rowena just rolled her eyes.
"Get a room love birds" she said sarcastically.
Dean and Ava stopped kissing and just glared at each other again.
"Take care" she said.
"You too" Dean replied.
Then Sam turned to Madame Bess.
"Ma'am, do you have any extra keys to your house? Once we get Charlie, we will be heading back here to get to get our things and call you all to let you know we're okay" he said.
"Sure, thing" she said.
"Do you have the extra keys inside the house or do you hide yours under the mat on the doorstep?" Sam asked.
"No dear, that is too obvious. I hide my spare keys inside the pot of one of my plants on my front porch the one on the left side. Just reach inside plant and you will find it, nobody would think to look there" she replied.
"Thanks ma'am" Sam said.
Then he turned to Gwen who also looked concerned.
"I wish I could go with you and help but I get why you have to do this just with Dean and Rowena of course, but please what Ava said goes for me too, get back safely okay" she said.
"Don't worry Gwen, we will and like Dean said, we will get Charlie back and meet you all back at the bunker, you and Charlie will hit it off, you'll really like her" he said.
"I'm sure" she told him.
They paused a couple of seconds then she spoke up again.
"You know we still have some unresolved issues that we have to deal with, once you get back of course" she told him.
"I know Gwen" Sam said knowing what she was talking about.
"But right now, I just want to wish you good luck finding your friend" said Gwen and with that she gave Sam a kiss on the lips.
They both were kissing for about several seconds until they stepped back while everybody watched and Madame Bess had look on her face as it to say "I saw this coming".
Rowena looked bored again.
"Oh, here we go round two" she replied.
Adam just looked stunned again. "Woah, once you guys get back you got to give me a lot of details" he said.
Sam just turned and grinned as did Dean.
"Okay, Castiel please get them all to the bunker right now" said Dean.
"Okay Dean, but what about the Book and the codex" he asked.
"Take them with you, we need them back at the bunker safe and sound where it can never be in evil hands again" said Dean glancing toward Rowena who just smirked.
"And like I said before, once you have them all at the bunker, come back and release Crowley from the trap" Dean reminded him again.
"Okay but he's gonna really pissed off" said Castiel as both Dean and Sam were a little taken back of hearing Castiel using more American slang.
"Yeah we know, all the more reason to release him so he won't be around when Madame Bess and Gwen return" said Sam.
"Okay, is everybody ready?" asked Dean.
Gwen gave Sam a quick hug.
"Take care of yourself" she said.
"Well will" he told her while Dean gave Ava a gently kiss on the forehead telling her, "Don't worry about a thing".
Then Adam ran up and gave Dean and Sam each a hug.
"You guys better come back this time" he said.
"You can count on that this time kiddo" said Dean.
Then Madame Bess went up and gave each of them a little hug followed by Castiel as Rowena just looked on rolling her eyes over their nauseating and endless goodbyes.
"Are you all done with your display of luvy dovy affections already, or do you want to take another hour" she said.
Castiel then walked up to Rowena with a stern look on his face. "I just want to let you know if you do anything to hurt my friends again, I'm gonna hunt you down and won't stop until I destroy you myself" he warned giving a very threatening look.
"That same goes for me" said Adam who walked over standing next to Castiel with a serious look on his face. "
My my, Papa and baby cub protecting their lot, how admirable and such gallantry" Rowena said unphased by their warnings.
"Okay Castiel, Adam time to go" said Dean.
Castiel first went over to grab the book and the codex which was still in the living room table on small table. Then he walked back along with Adam holding the book and codex in each hand.
"Okay everybody, each of you grab on to me" he commanded.
Then everybody surrounded him and grabbed a hold of his shoulder coat sleeve, arm and just anything they could grab on too.
"Goodbye you guys" he said and within seconds, they all just vanished.
