A/N OMG I FIXED MY COMPUTER! actually, my dad fixed it, but still! THIS MEANS REGULAR UPDATES! yaaaaay! ok, so here's the long awaited, 6th chapter.
Alex smiled as she walked up to the tree she had met Castiel at. She put her had on the bark and closed her eyes. She let the presense of the tree wash over her, fill her with understanding. She loved nature, and she loved being outside. The park was the only thing she had left, besides her little brother.
She felt a jolt run up her arm, and she jerked away. She rubbed her hand and inspected the tree. "What the..." At the place where she had touched, there was a burn mark, exactly the same shape and size of her hand. She frowned, not understanding how that happened.
"Hey Alex." Alex turned around and immediatly smiled. "Gabriel!" She ran up to him and threw her arms around him. "Ok, ok, enough hugging. What's goin' through your mind?" Alex frowned slightly. She hated how he could read her, even when everyone else couldn't.
"Well...I don't really know." She turned back to the tree. Gabriel looked curiously over head. "Well, how did that happen?" He walked up to the burn mark on the tree. "Did you do this?"
Alex nodded. He frowned. "Ok, Alex, you can't tell Castiel about this, ok? About anything I told you." Alex looked up at him, suprised, "why not?" He put a hand on her shoulder, "it's just important that you don't, not unless he figures it out himself. You could get hurt if you do." Alex looked at Gabriel's serious expression. This so wasn't like him. She wasn't sure she liked this side of him. He was to serious, to protective.
"Promise me, Alex, you have to promise me," Gabriel's eyes were pleading with her. Alex blinked. "Yes, I promise." Gabriel closed his eyes. "Thank you," He said, and dissappered.
Did he just thank me? Alex thought. He is being so weird.
Alex rolled her eyes and sat in the grass. Castiel...he kept running through her mind. She had been expecting something more. Someone that looked more powerful, the way Gabriel explained it. She closed her eyes and just rested against the tree, she'd think more later.

Castiel appeard just outside of Alex's house. He frowned. It worried him that she wasn't home. He walked up to the window and looked inside. He saw her father and young brother in the living room. The child was laughing and playing with a miniture version of a construction truck.
The father was watching the boy, his eyes sharp. It was getting late, and the sky was already beginning to darken, and Alex wasn't home yet. Castiel was sure that the man inside would be mad at her.
He swiftly ducked out of sight as the boy looked up from his toys. Castiel thought he saw recognition in the boys face, but he wasn't sure, the child was almost as much of a mystery as Alex. The boy stared at the window for a few seconds, but went back to crashing his toys together.
Castiel thought for a minute. She wasn't home. He couldn't sense her. He had to think about where she would be. He had to know the answer to the question that was floating through his head. He had met her at the park, carrying a skateboard. He wasn't sure if she would be there, but it was his best choice.
He took one last look through the window at the boy, and dissapeared. Dean had always wondered how Castiel got around, but Castiel had never told him. The fact that Dean nor Sam had remembered the flights had told Castiel that they should not know how he transported from one place to another.
Castiel had always enjoyed flying. It made him feel alive, made him feel free. He closed his eyes and concentrated on the park, his wings carrying him in the right direction. It was quick, he had no time for a luxery flight, as he often did when he was alone and Dean and Sam did not need him.
He arrived at the park and scanned it for Alex. He spotted her by the tree he had met her at, her eyes closed and breathing slow. He slowly walked up to her. He stood next to her, his eyes never leaving her face. "I know your there," she said, her eyes opening. She looked at him with glinting blue eyes, and smiled. "Somehow, I knew you were coming."
Castiel just looked at her. "We need to talk, Alexandria." She wrinkled her nose, "Don't call me Alexandria, It's Alex." Castiel blinked, "Yes, Alex, we need to talk." She smiled again, "You're persistent. Soo...what's on your mind?"
Castiel was suddenly nervous. He didn't know how to put his question into words. Alex frowned at his hesitation, "Cas? You ok?" He closed his eyes, "I am fine." She didn't look convinced.
Castiel took a breath he really didn't need. "Is it true?" He asked quietly. She looked at him, her eyes wide, "You'll have to be more specific." He looked at her, "I believe you are aware of the question I am asking. I need to know the answer." She closed her eyes.
"Gabriel said not to tell you, until you found out for yourself." Castiel slid down the tree. "It is true." It wasn't a question, but Alex answered anyway, "Yes...I really am sorry." Cas turned his head to look at her. "But how do I know that you are telling me the truth?" Alex smiled at him, "You don't. That's why you have to trust me."
Castiel sighed. He wasn't as suprised as he expected. He only felt...tired. Just very, extreamly tired. "I did not think you really were alive, I had thought they got to you as well." Castiel said, his voice suprising him by cracking. "They didn't...I survived."
"How?" Castiel looked at her, his eyes curious. "You are a very nosey person, er, I mean angel."
"CAS!" Castiel's head snapped up. Dean was running up to them, Sam close behind. "Dude, we were looking everwhere-" Dean stopped short when he saw Alex. Sam slid next to Dean and looked confused. "Uhh, whose that?" Sam asked.
Castiel looked at Alex, then back at the brothers. "Sam, Dean, This is Alex...My daughter."
