Guest: I agree with you the storyline was disappointing. Michael/Dean had so much potential. His death was a huge disappointment. Thank you for the review and I love Michael Dean fics. I have written a few of my own. I wrote this one and my other ones are called French Mistake 2 an Archangel Nightmare and One Time Deal but One Time Deal is an AU of season 13 in which Dean says yes to the cage Michael instead of AU Michael. There is Michael Dean fics I would recommend. They are called An Alternative Ending, Not all Good News and Gonna Leave a Scar. Not all Good News and Gonna Leave a Scar are on Achieve on our Own.
MO: Thank you for the review.
Emily: Hmm we'll see ;)
Rowena bursts into the room.
"JACK!" She screamed.
"I GOT HIM ROWENA!" Jack yells.
Patrick runs in.
"Jack let him go."
"NO! I HAVE TO DO THIS."
Rowena puts her hand on Jack's shoulder. The witch suddenly flies back and hits the wall.
"Rowena!"
Patrick is about to reach the nephilim. He stops and feels it. He feels the power coming from Jack's soul. It wasn't grace it was magic.
"He is using soul magic." Patrick looks at the other witch. Rowena gets into a sitting position on the ground. She didn't look surprised. His eyes widen. "You know about this."
"Winchesters." She answers with a sigh.
Patrick looks back at the nephilim.
"Jack you got to stop you are burning your soul."
"Don't care." Jack answers. "I'm doing this for my family."
"Its dangerous. You are hurting Dean."
"If this gets rid of Michael I'm doing it no matter how much pain it causes Dean. I have waited for this moment."
"Jack let go." Rowena warned.
Jack made himself clear he is not letting go. Michael's screams worried Rowena. She wasn't just worried about Dean. She's worried about Michael as well.
Patrick raises his hand.
"Rigescunt indutae."
Jack froze. He couldn't move a muscle.
"What did you do to me?" Jack asks.
Patrick flicks his wrist and Jack slides across the room towards the wall. He is pinned to the wall and he couldn't move. The nephilim yells in anger but the witches took no notice of him.
Rowena runs towards the archangel. She gasps.
Michael lies on the ground, his skin is white, several burns are on his arms and face. He trembled and his eyes are wide with fear. He looked like a regular kid who has been through a traumatizing event. You wouldn't think he was the Commander of Heaven.
Rowena scoops the kid up. He was freezing.
"I'll watch the kid." Patrick says. "You deal with the archangel."
Rowena nods and carries Michael out of the room. Patrick mutters under his breath. Jack falls down.
"We had an oppotunity." Jack glared.
Patrick shakes his head and walks out of the dungeon. Jack follows but the door gets slammed in his face.
Huh?
Jack tries to open the door but it is locked. He looks through the open slit.
"I'm sorry." Patrick says. "Just until Sam and the angel come back."
"What?" Jack's eyes widen. "You can't keep me in here. Michael is out there."
"We're taking care of him."
"He is getting you on his side. This is an act." Jack growled. "I know him I fought him in the other world he is dangerous and when he is at full power he will kill you, Rowena, Sam, Castiel, everyone. He already killed the hunters."
Jack choked back a sob as he thought of the hunters he helped in the other world.
Patrick saw the familiar haunt in Jack's eyes. He can tell the nephilim has lost people who meant a lot to him.
"I know how you feel." Patrick said softly. "I lost someone very dear to me too."
"Who?"
"I would rather not talk about it." Patrick tried to hide the pain in his voice.
Jack nods with understanding.
"Okay."
"Michael..." Patrick sighs "...he's not a monster."
Jack glares at him.
"He is."
"He's not. He's hurt, broken, he is just as vulnerable as you are. All that hurt has built through his life and eventually he snapped and when we're mad we got to take it out on something."
"He took it out on innocent lives."
"Created by God. God abandoned him."
"That's no excuse."
Rowena told me everything about you. Lucifer betrayed you but you had Castiel, Sam and Dean to turn you. Michael did his father's work but God left and Michael had no one to turn you. He had no other family he was alone Jack. That can make a person hostile, bitter, angry. He destroyed his father's work so he can get his attention."
"He wants to kill God."
"Is that all?" Patrick raises his eyebrow. "I think he wants an explanation as well. What did he do wrong? Why did God leave and make more universes? You have to look at both sides of the situation. Like me and the Winchesters. They are hunters and in the supernatural community hunters are a threat. I see them I should straight away kill them but when Dean came to see me regarding his friend Bobby, I saw Dean as a man helping a friend in need. Sam played to save his brother's life despite the chance of losing. I learnt that hunters are not big bad scary killing machines they too have emotions and they would do anything for their loved ones just like us witches." Jack gave him a look. Patrick rolls his eyes. "Okay not all witches but a majority of them. Going back to my previous point you got to put yourself in their shoes see it from their perspective. I do it with my clients I like to see the story as a whole I may get other perspectives on the client or use my gut to see if they truly deserve to be their youthful self again." He sighs. "Kid...leave Michael to us." He chuckles "He hates me at the moment but he likes Rowena."
Jack frowns.
"He does?"
"He has a guardian to attach himself to he looks up at Rowena. There is trust issues which is understandable due to his past but hopefully we can cure him but also see this as a healing process." His face darkens. "Kid I will repeat leave Michael to us do not do that again. No more soul magic and most of all do not hurt Rowena do you understand?." Jack nods shocked by his change of tone. Patrick nods. "Okay. I'll let you know when Sam and the angel return."
Patrick closes the slit and leaves the dungeon.
I'm sorry Jack but you need time out lol. I promise next chapter will include Michael and Rowena. #MotherRowena lol.
