Patrick has heard some crazy stories in his life. This, this topped it all. The archangel Michael has been turned into a child. What made it crazier was Dean Winchester is the vessel. A child Michael and Dean combined. Hilarious. Patrick chuckled to himself. That must be an amusing sight. Grumpy old man to screaming, crying four year old with extra juice in his system.

What made Patrick laugh was that Rowena performed the spell. Her out of all people. There is many dangerous spells Patrick knows but Rowena did that spell. Patrick laughs and laughs he hasn't laughed this much in a long time. Sam glares but the witch continued laughing.

"Oh Sam." Patrick wipes his tears and shakes his head. "You came here to gain the years to put your brother back to normal."

"Can you?"

Patrick tried. He tried to hold in the laugh but those wide, hopeful eyes made him snicker.

"I can." The witch nods. "But Sam what Rowena did was temporary. If I do the spell, yes he will return to normal but when the original spell wears off, the years he lost will combine with the years I gave and he will be an old man." Sam's face drops. Patrick shakes his head. "You didn't think about that did you?"

"Is there not a way to eliminate Rowena's spell?"

"No. This a type of spell you have to wait it out. An archangel, I cannot say this is new to me."

"I need my brother back."

"I understand what you are feeling but I can't help you."

"How about we do the spell. When the other spell wears off you take away the years."

Patrick's raises his eyebrow.

"Take away. Sam that's not how it works."

"I will play."

"You were lucky last time. You really want to gamble? If you lose the game, you will be old. I will not allow you both to play. I'm sorry. This game does have an age limit."

Sam wanted to punch something, lash out, get the anger he is feeling out of his system . He really thought this was his chance to save Dean. It turned out to be another dead end.

Damm it!

Patrick places his hand on Sam's shoulder.

"I am sorry." Patrick says. The witch sounded genuine as he said it. "I would suggest that you listen to Rowena and give Michael a childhood." He smiles. "Maybe he will change."

Patrick suddenly stumbles back in shock. He touches his nose and looks at his fingers. Nose bleed. Sam stands up his eyes lock on to the witch.

"That was not a good idea." Patrick raises his hand. Sam yelps and drops down to his knees. Patrick squats down so he is eye level with the hunter. "I am not the bad guy here Sam. I am being honest with you. My game cannot help everyone." He ignored the pain Sam is in. "I don't want to anyone to get hurt. Lia would not want me to hurt you. I must respect her wishes." He lowers his hand and Sam lets out a gasp. Patrick stands up and opens the door. "Now go. I don't want to see you again."

A scream causes Patrick to whip round. Vampires charged into the bar. Some jumped on people and sunk their teeth into them while others scanned the area their eyes sharp. One vampire with red hair spots the witch standing by the door. His eyes glow blue and a grin forms on his face.

"The hunter is in there."

The vampires pause in the middle of their meal and turn towards the door. They all bare their teeth and charge towards the door. Patrick slams the door shut. He raises his hands and chants. Pounding is heard from the other side followed by growls and screams

"Friends of yours."

Patrick looks down at the hunter waiting for an answer. Sam gets to his feet and looks at the door.

"Its Michael's monsters." Sam says.

"I thought they didn't look normal. They are looking for you."

"They know I have Michael."

"Wonderful." Patrick grits his teeth struggling to hold on. "Trouble really does follow the Winchesters. I was in town doing my job not be a blood bag."

"You can't hide from us Winchester." The vampire snarled. "We just want Michael."

"Do they know?" Patrick asked.

"I don't think so."

"If they see their leader as a child..." A bang on the door causes Patrick to wince. "THEY ARE NOT GOING TO BE HAPPY."

"Ya think." Sam picks up his gun. He cursed for leaving his machete in the car. "There is too many of em. Cutting their heads off is the only way to kill them but I do not have my machete."

Patrick frowns.

"Dead man's blood?"

"Not anymore. Michael made them immune to it."

"Okay." Patrick smiles nervously. "I don't like the archangel now."

"Is there a way out?" Sam asks.

"Yes. This door which has vampires on the other side."

"Shit."

Patrick's hands tremble.

"I cannot hold on much longer. I have to let go."

Sam's eyes widen.

"You can't."

Patrick lets out a hum and steps back. He suddenly swings his arms. The cards slide across the table and form a wall. Sam didn't have time to process what happened because suddenly the door breaks down and the vampires run in. They stop and frown at the wall of cards that blocked their way. Red hair growled and slashes the wall cutting it in one swipe.

The cards tear apart and fall on the ground. The vampires move in and look round the room. Fury rose inside red hair. He bangs the table.

"THEIR GONE!"

His eyes glow with rage.

"I think the other guy was a witch Neo" A vampire says to the red head vampire.

Neo turns to his companions.

"The witch dies aswell." He growled. "Lets move out."

The vampires walk through the bar and step over the bodies. Neo gives the bar one last look and then leaves.

Sam stumbles and falls on to a trunk of a random car. He stands up his face bewildered by that sudden teleportation. Patrick looks left and right and takes a deep breath.

"We lost them." He smirks. "Or more like they lost us."

The witch suddenly yelps as Sam slaps the cuffs on his wrists.

"You are coming with me."

Patrick tuts and shakes his head.

"Waste of time. I already told you I can't help you."

"If you keep talking I'll knock you out."

The hunter drags the witch down the street towards the Impala. He opens the trunk.

"Trunk? Really Sam I just saved your life."

Sam shoves the witch into the trunk. Patrick's eyes widen as Sam rips off a piece of tape.

"Sa..."

The tape goes on Patrick's mouth.

Patrick muffled behind the tape and glares at the hunter. Sam shuts the trunk and gets into the car.

"I ain't giving up that easily." Sam says.

He starts the engine and drives off.


Rowena rushes out of the kitchen.

"Bloody kids. You keep their eyes off them for a second and they go just like that." She looks around. "Sam is going to kill me."

She stops and swallows. Shit he might do that aswell.

She hears a whine. The witch looks up and spots Michael at the door at the top of the stairs. He is jumping up and down trying to reach the handle. A grin spreads across Rowena's lips.

"Gotcha."

Michael heard the approaching footsteps. He panics and jumps up. He grabs on to the handle. He smiles and goes to pull it. The door opens. It opened so fast Michael falls over. Rowena catches him and brings him close to her chest.

"You bad boy." She wags her finger at him. "You must never ever do that." Her eyes blaze with fury. "You understand."

Michael sunk back in her arms. A terrified expression flashes his face. He bites his lip and nods.

Rowena smiles.

"Good glad we understand each other."

"Rowena."

Sam stood at the door. His mouth is open.

"Samuel."

She looks at the other person with him. He had a tape across his mouth and he had a baffled expression.

Oh God.

She sighs.

"Patrick."
