A/N: Sorry this is so late. Life has been incredibly hectic, especially for me, AuntMo, the "Mo" in KitMo. This is the final chapter of this story. You will see a new character introduced in this chapter though. You will learn more about her in our next story. Thanks for sticking with us. I hope you enjoyed it!

Cas saw that Dean and Ziva got back to the reception hall safely and at the same time, Gabriel returned with Hel to her home, to retrieve the others. While it didn't surprise him to find Annie and Nicole casually chatting together, nor Sam pouring over Hel's ancient scrolls, at first glance, he saw none of his children. And that included Fen and Sleipnir.

"Where are the kids?" Gabriel demanded. The three adults looked up at him, startled by his appearance.

"Shh," Annie said, hushing him. "They little ones are asleep. Besides, is that anyway to greet us, considering I was whisked away by your eldest daughter so I wouldn't get killed by some god intent on doing so?"

"Sorry," Gabriel whispered, grabbing her hand. "But we did manage to take care of Freyja. She won't hurt anyone ever again." Looking across the room, he saw three little bundles cuddling into a large pile of fur. "Is that Fen and the twins?"

"Yes," Nicole giggled. "And Kenzie, too. They all fell asleep that way about a half an hour ago."

Gabriel raised his eyebrows at that but didn't comment.

"What about the others?" Hel wondered.

"Abigail pestered Sleipnir until he took her and Nicky for a ride," Sam answered. "They are still out roaming the grounds."

Gabriel's eye widened in surprise at that but as he opened his mouth to comment, Fen raised he head and softly spoke, "You shouldn't be surprised Dad. After all, we are all family."

"Well, not all," Gabriel huffed. "Not Kenzie, and certainly not DiNozzo's kid."

"Really, Dad?" Hel asked. "Have you been away from us so long that you have lost you ability to see past, present and future? You don't see what is in store for all of them."

"What is she talking about?" Nicole insisted.

Gabriel rolled his eyes. "Nothing I can tell any of you about. Now, let's get everyone home."

*spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis*

"So did everyone have fun?" Gabriel asked, watching Abigail and Nicky settle into the bunk beds.

"Fen let Kenzie rub his belly." Nicky laughed.

"Huh." Gabriel muttered, never figuring his son to be the type to enjoy such a thing. "Well you two get some sleep alright. Been a long day."

"Daddy." Abigail called as Gabriel was heading out. The Archangel paused and turned to look at his daughter. "Is Sammy gonna marry Nicole?"

"Who knows?" Gabriel replied, chuckling softly.

"I could have Sam as my uncle?" Nicky asked, leaning over the edge of the top bunk. Gabriel and Abigail looked at him as the little boy laughed. "If they got married, I'd be more officially their family than you!"

"Hey!" Abigail whined.

"Sleep time." Gabriel interjected.

After several minutes of grumbling and complaining, the two kids finally agreed to sleep and Gabriel was able to walk into his bedroom to be with the woman he wanted to be around. Annie was already there, as she had put the twins and Kenzie down for the night a little bit ago.

"So, what did Hel and Fen mean when they were talking about the kids earlier tonight?" Annie pried as Gabriel walked into their room.

He rubbed a hand over his face and sighed. "Nothing I can really say. Nothing I really even want to think about it."

"Is it that bad? Are they going to be okay?"

"They'll be fine as any of us have been, Annie. It is just that we will be stuck with the DiNozzos in our lives longer than I ever expected. Kinda of like the Winchesters. Speaking of which, DiNozzo marries Lila, and Sammy boy has been hooking up with Nicole, and somehow that means we get stuck with five kids at our house tonight?" Gabriel complained.

"You're forgetting a couple things," Annie countered. "First of all, the kids are so tired from all events of the day that they are sound asleep. They shouldn't be any trouble, at least until morning. Second, from the rumors I've heard, it was you and Dean that were encouraging Tony to pop the question in the first place, so where exactly did you think Nicky would stay during their honeymoon, hmm? With McGee, or Gibbs? Even if Lila did ask one of them to do that, Abby would have just popped him over here or bugged us until we let her."

"Fine, fine," Gabriel surrendered. "But that doesn't mean we should be responsible for Kenzie, too. She's Nicole's daughter, she should be with her mom, not us. Why do she and Sammy get a night without the kid?"

"But you're not seeing the silver lining in that either," Annie reminded him, as she wrapped her arms around his waist. "The twins enjoy having Kenzie around so much as a playmate, that they are the ones that brought her here. And when she is here, they tend to forget about calling me to them. You know, for an archangel, you can sometimes be incredibly short-sighted when it comes to the long-term consequences or benefits of certain things."

"Can you blame me? When the immediate view before my eyes is so beautifully distracting?" he asked before kissing her. "Speaking of being distracted, there is something I have been meaning to give you." He held up his open palm and a small box appeared.

"What...what is it?" Annie stammered.

"Well open it and find out." Gabriel said, with a smirk.

Annie took the box and carefully pried it open. "You...you didn't," she gasped. "It's beautiful! But, we…we don't need this…everything has always been sealed since your Dad…"

"Actually, we do," he sighed. "Although I will never admit this to anyone other than you, someone with a tiny grain of wisdom pointed out that quite a few human men check you out on a regular basis. There were even a few doing so tonight at the reception. That one guy, Dunham, kept asking you to dance."

"And you kept making sure punch got spilled on him," she laughed. "That poor man is going to have one heck of a dry cleaning bill."

"My point is, I want everyone to know that you're spoken for, without having to spill punch on every guy that looks at you."

"Oh, Gabriel," Annie exclaimed, wrapping her arms around the back of his neck and pulling him down into another kiss.

She took the ring out of the box and looked at it more closely. The silver band was etched with what appeared to be the slight brushes of wings, as well as several symbols. "Is that Enochian?" she asked.

"Yes, it has our names etched into it, as well as a protection spell," he explained. "I don't ever want you to be without me, or my protection." Annie smiled and shook her head. She appreciated the thought but Gabriel was just so overprotective sometimes. He took the ring from the box and slid it onto her finger before kissing her yet again.

*spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis*

"Well this ain't so bad." Dean muttered, gazing steadily at the two year old blonde girl perched on his lap. She blinked and tilted her head. Dean tilted his as well, his hands hovering over the child's sides just in case. Kenzie's head tilted the other way and she began giggling as Dean's did the same thing. He just grinned and shook his head slightly.

"What are you doing?" Dean jumped and looked up to find his brother standing over him with a girl on either side. To his left was the mother of the little girl sitting on Dean's lap. To his right was a woman that the older Winchester had brought to this little gathering. Her dark brown hair was half twisted up to keep out of her face but still hanging down her back. She was the one that had spoken and now she stood there with a grin on her face, arms crossed under her chest. The only adult female present who hadn't had any children.

"Uh...just...you know...playing." Dean mumbled. "Or...least...I think that's what we're doing." He looked back at Kenzie as she started squirming. He raised an eyebrow, wondering what had caught her attention, until he noticed Isaac and Levi stumbling into the room. Dean put the girl on the floor and she went to the boys. "So Liz, getting along with my brother and his girlfriend?"

"Oh yeah, they're great." Liz smiled. "Sam's told me some stories." Dean paused in his reach for his beer. He looked at the three people standing over him, all of which had smiles on their faces.

"Oh hell." Dean muttered. Liz laughed and spun around to sit next to him. She and Dean had only known each other for a week, having met on Christmas Eve after Tony and Lila's wedding as well as after the showdown with Freyja. Dean had helped Liz out in more ways then one in that single week. "Should I be afraid of what you plan to do with the information you've been given?"

"Hmmm...I don't think so." Liz assured, smiling wickedly. Dean laughed and put his arm around her shoulders.

"Finally, a good woman that can keep up with Dean." Sam muttered. Nicole smiled and stuck a plastic crown on Sam's head. He blinked while Dean and Liz laughed at him. "Nicole."

"Oh come on, it's cute." Nicole argued. She kissed his cheek then stuck another crown onto Dean's head. Liz laughed even more as the brothers blinked in confusion as to how Nicole had these crowns.

"THEY'RE BACK! THEY'RE BACK!" Nicky screamed as he came barreling down the stairs. The volume of his voice put all the adults on alert. Nicky yanked his boots on as fast as he could then flung open the front door and went running outside, Nicole yelling after him. There were yelps and a thud and everyone ran to the door to find Lila leaning on the car in the driveway, laughing her head off while Nicky sat on Tony who was buried in the snow on the side of the drive.

"I like that kid more and more each day." Gabriel remarked, laughing. Dean and Sam laughed as well while Annie, Nicole and Liz just smiled and shook their heads.

"Nicky!" Abigail laughed as she came down the stairs and squeezed through the adults. "Get off your daddy."

"Yes Nicky, your old man wants out of the snow." Tony agreed with the little girl. Nicky laughed and stood up. Lila helped Tony get up and brushed snow off him. "Did we miss anything?"

"Nope, midnight's not for a while." Gabriel commented.

"Smart ass." Tony muttered. He picked up the bags and everyone moved to let the DiNozzos inside their house. "Ah home sweet home."

"I see Abby, Ziva and McGee aren't here yet." Lila stated.

"They called, said they were running a little late with a case." Nicole explained. "Should be here soon though."

"They say if Gibbs was coming?" Tony asked. Nicole shrugged. "Well we're gonna put our stuff upstairs then we'll give you guys your junk."

"Yay!" Nicky cheered.

After putting the suitcases upstairs, Tony came down to find Dean involved in an animated conversation with a woman. As he walked past them, he did a double take, "Liz?" he asked, surprised. "What are you doing at my house?"

Lila walked up behind him. "Don't you think you could be a little bit more of a gentleman, Tony?"

"That's okay, Lila," Liz offered. "I don't think you guys expected to see me here today. I met Dean at your reception and he's helped me with a few things. So he invited me to come with him."

"Seriously?" Tony scoffed. "Is everyone I know going to start hanging out with all of you people? Next you are going to tell me that Ziva is bringing Castiel as her date tonight."

"Well, I wouldn't exactly call it a date," Gabriel said as he slapped Tony on the back. "But my bro is bringing her back from Israel so she can come to this shindig tonight." Tony just stared at Gabriel. Lila shook her head and walked to the kitchen where Annie and Nicole had migrated. She smiled and watched as her sister pulled the tails off shrimp to give to Kenzie. The little girl had a seafood craving to match Gabriel's candy obsession.

"Well look at my big sister, all tan." Nicole commented as she spotted Lila in the doorway. She went over and hugged her then Annie took her turn. As the oldest of the three stepped back, the youngest caught a glint on her hand. Nicole grabbed at Annie's hand then squealed.

"What?" Lila asked.

"This!" Nicole turned Annie's hand towards Lila and the older of the two sisters tilted her head then laughed. "It's so pretty!"

"Thought you guys didn't need rings." Lila accused playfully.

"Apparently Gabriel and Tony made a deal." Annie explained. "Tony and you get married, Gabriel gives me a ring. Keeps guys from trying to hit on me."

"Oh, like Dunham." Lila laughed. She felt sorry for the man, constantly having his drink spill and not knowing how. But it was just something she had to laugh at. Like Nicky tackling Tony into the snow.

"Pretty much." Annie laughed as well. "Just one more thing from the ever possessive Archangel Gabriel."

"Oh come on, it's sweet." Nicole defended. The other two laughed.

"You are such a hopeless romantic sometimes, Nic." Lila joked with her sister.

"Which makes her perfect for Sam." Annie spoke up, making Nicole blush. The other two laughed again. Lila hugged her sister to her side.

"Mrs. DiNozzo, you're needed out here!" Gabriel called into the kitchen. "And the rest of you women folk hiding in there!"

The girls laughed and grabbed bowls and plates of snacks before walking out of the kitchen to join the others. Kenzie and the twins were all in their pajamas already. It had been decided that everyone was going to see if the toddlers could stay up until midnight but it wasn't going to be forced on them. Abigail and Nicky were in their pajamas as well but they were much more lively then the younger children, bouncing around, playing games with the toys they had just received as souvenirs from the honeymoon. Dean and Sam were sitting on the couch with Liz perched on the arm next to Dean, leaving a space on Sam's other side for Nicole to join them. Gabriel was sitting on the floor, watching the toddlers play with blocks. Tony was just walking into the room, Abby and McGee behind him. On the other side of the room, Castiel and Ziva stood, Ziva looking a little disoriented but trying to hide it.

"Gibbs and Ducky might show up later." Abby explained. "But like, later later. Like almost midnight type later."

"That's fine." Tony said. He held up his arm and Lila moved over to him. She slid into place at his side and looked around at everyone. "You know...we've lived in this house for a couple years now."

"Yeah." Lila replied slowly, wondering where this was going.

"I never noticed how big it was before now." Tony commented. Lila laughed and kissed her husband's cheek.

*spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis*

"GIBBS!" Nearly the whole household greeted as the old NCIS boss walked inside. He jumped a little in surprise then shook his head with a smile. Ducky followed him in but paused at the amount of people all staring over at them. "DUCKY!"

"Has there been drinking?" Ducky joked.

"No, it was all Abigail's idea." Lila assured. "She saw you guys coming from the window and told us we should give you a big greeting. So...that was it." Abigail giggled from her spot lying on her stomach on the floor, a pillow holding her head up.

"Well hang on Lila, we can't truthfully say there really hasn't been any drinking." Tony pointed out, nudging his thumb in the Winchesters' direction. Lila shook her head and laughed slightly as she looked over. Dean had pulled Liz off the arm of the couch so she was now sitting on his lap. His arms were around her, one hand holding a beer bottle, and his head was on her shoulder. Every so often, Sam would nudge his brother to make sure he was awake.

"I wonder if anyone else has toddlers that could stay awake longer than one of the adults." Annie remarked. Isaac, Levi and Kenzie were all still awake, sitting or lying along with Abigail and Nicky, all staring at the movie playing on the television set.

"Shuddup." Dean mumbled against Liz's shoulder, making her laugh. He pinched her side and she yelped, making him laugh.

"Someone tell me that Liz hasn't started dating him." Gibbs muttered to Lila and Tony.

"Sorry Gibbs, can't do it." Lila confessed, patting the older man's shoulder.

"It's cute." Abby remarked, making her way into the talk as she put her arms around Gibbs for a hug. He returned it as always, ever the father figure for the Goth girl.

"Hey Abs, where's McGeek?" Tony asked.

"I think he went to the kitchen." Abby replied. Tony nodded and, kissing Lila's forehead, turned and went to find his co-worker.

"Never realized your house was this big." McGee commented when Tony came into the kitchen.

"Yeah, I said the same thing earlier." Tony laughed. "So...still in denial?" He went to the fridge and pulled out a beer before turning to look at the younger man.

"As much as I don't really want to believe all that stuff is out there...I guess...I have to admit it." McGee agreed. Tony grinned and sipped his beer. "Especially after hearing from Ziva how she and the angel squad found and got rid of that god, Freyja, who was behind all of those murders."

"What?" Tony asked. "When did that happen?"

"On the night of your reception, after you and Lila had left for your honeymoon," McGee explained as Abigail and Nicky came into the kitchen to get more snacks. "You didn't hear about?"

"No, we didn't," Tony exhaled. "Where were the kids when all this happened?"

"Oh, dad, we were fine," Nicky piped in. "We went to Hel's."

"WHAT? What do you mean you went to hell?" Tony exclaimed. "GAY-BRIEL! Get your feathery behind in here now!"

"Dad, calm down," Nicky interjected. "Don't worry. Hel is Abigail's older sister And her brothers were there, too. Sleip is this cool horse we got to ride and Fen is a wolf that Kenzie and the twins cuddled with. Aunt Nicole and Sam were there, too."

As Tony's face started to turn almost purple, Abigail spoke up. "Nicky, I don't think you're helping."

"Huh?" Nicky looked at Abigail then at his father. "Dad, why is your face changing color?"

"GAY-BRIEL NOW!" Tony yelled, making the kids and McGee jump. Not only did Gabriel instantly appear in the kitchen, but a second afterwards, Lila and Annie were standing in the doorway, all of them looking worried.

"What?" Gabriel asked, looking around for any possible trouble. When he saw none, his expression turned confused as he looked at Tony.

"What...was my son...doing...at a place called Hel's." Tony spoke slowly and dangerously. Gabriel blinked as Nicky and Abigail scurried away behind their mothers.

"First off, it's not a place called Hel's." Gabriel pointed out. "Hel is my daughter and she's the gatekeeper to the Norse underworld."

"Not helping." Lila pointed out.

"You're both so overprotective and paranoid." Gabriel insisted. All eyes turned to him as if to say 'are you kidding'. He blinked innocently as he picked up a foil wrapped chocolate Santa Claus left over from Christmas. "What?"

*spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis* spn* ncis*

"It's just weird you know." McGee muttered several minutes later when it was just him and Tony once more in the kitchen. The previous crisis having been averted for the time being.

"No...what's weird is the fact that I think my son is more than likely going to end up dating and possibly marrying Gabriel's daughter." Tony remarked, glancing out of the kitchen at the mentioned children. McGee laughed and shook his head. "I'm not even kidding here Tim, I'm serious."

"You're going to be related to Gabriel." McGee taunted.

"And apparently a wolf, a horse and the gatekeeper to the Norse underworld by proxy, not to mention all of those angels," Tony said, just shaking his head. McGee just smiled then laughed again. Tony couldn't help but laugh as well.

"Come on guys, it's almost midnight!" Abby called into the kitchen. The two men walked out to join the crowd. Dean, Sam, Nicole and Liz were all standing now, Sam holding Kenzie as the little girl was fighting to stay awake for at least another few seconds. Gibbs and Ducky had been dragged off their chairs by Abby and the NCIS team stood together on one side of the Winchesters. The Angel family stood on the other side, Gabriel and Annie each holding one of their sons. Nicky and Abigail had placed themselves right in the middle of the group, eyes on the television as the giant clock in Time Square began counting down the seconds.

Castiel and Ziva were slighting away from everyone. Ziva having never really been apart of any New Years celebrations and Castiel just not understanding.

"Why celebrate the end of a year?" Castiel asked.

"A better question would be why have large celebrations in New York which is reportedly very cold in the winter time and half the women are dressed inappropriately." Ziva asked back. Castiel paused then nodded slowly.

"Don't be party poopers." Lila mock scolded.

"10...9...8..."

"Come on everybody!" Abigail and Nicky commanded the group. Everyone laughed but joined in. The toddlers yelling random sounds just to feel included.

"7...6...5..."

Tony pulled Lila to him and grinned, kissing her hand with the ring.

"4...3...2...1..."

"HAPPY NEW YEAR!"

The overall yell made Castiel and Ziva jump. Both of them blinked as they witnessed Gabriel and Annie, Sam and Nicole, Dean and Liz, Tony and Lila, and of course Abby and McGee kissing. Castiel tilted his head then looked at Ziva.

"Is this a tradition?" He asked.

"I believe it is in America." Ziva replied. Castiel nodded slowly. He stumbled when Ducky 'accidentally' pushed him closer to Ziva. Both Angel and Agent glared at him but Ducky just sat, feigning innocence. Ziva crossed her arms and looked at Castiel. He just blinked and looked at her.

"ABIGAIL!" Nicky's shout made everyone pause then look at the kids. Abigail was smiling innocently, her cheeks going red. Nicky had a hand on his own cheek and his eyes staring incredulously at his friend.

"Did you just kiss Nicky?" Annie asked. Abigail giggled then nodded.

"Aww." Lila, Nicole, Liz and Abby all chimed in.

"Oh dear lord." Tony and Gabriel muttered.
