A/N: Okay, here''s chapter 19, meaning, 18 part II. Don't forget to tell me what you think.

Love, Maggie

-How's he doing?- Bobby asked Sam as he came back from the basement. He didn't answer, just grimaced softly. Bobby nodded in understanding.

-How are you doin'?- Danielle inquired, resting hand on his wide shoulder. Emma was sitting next to Adam, who was sleeping. She was reading a book, it looked like her old magic book, but he couldn't be sure. The light for her reading came from a light bolt in her hand, which she was creating with magic, since there was no actual light bulb or lamp.

Sam went to lean against Bobby's desk and Danielle followed him.

-We know what we're doin' next?- she asked, sighing lightly. Sam shook his head in denial

-You've got any ideas?-

-Not really…- she didn't want to lie, but she didn't want to betray her mother's trust either. She looked around for a distraction and noticed that Castiel wasn't there-Where's the angel?-

Sam's head snapped up, and in that exact moment, they heard a noise from downstairs. Danielle moved quickly, running to the basement, but it was too late.

-Where is he?- Sam came running right after her

-Gone- Danielle pointed to a paint in the wall, Dean's blood in a symbol to get rid of angels- he sent him to Oz, Sammy-

-Damn it!- he hit the wall with his fist, and Danielle sighed again. They were already pretty fucked, they didn't' need a rebellious archangel's vessel in the game too.

-What? What happened?- Emma inquired in a low voice, trying not to wake up Adam

-Dean's gone- Danielle answered

-Seriously? Stupid motherfucker…-

-Yes, you can curse Dean later, Em, we need to find him- Sam scolded

-Okay, you two go, I'll look after the kid-

-Alright, c'mon, Dani-

Danielle took her jacket and they took off to find Dean, he couldn't be too far. But after an hour of looking and not finding him, they went back, at least to check on Emma and Adam.

-He's gone-

-What you mean he's gone?-Sam snapped- Emma, what the hell?-

-Hey, watch it!- she warned- I might like you a lot, but I won't hesitate to knock you out cold, okay?-

-She's right, it's not her fault- Bobby interceded- he was right in front of us, and then he disappeared into thin air-

-Because the angels took him- Castiel said, showing up with an unconscious Dean in his arms. Maybe he was getting too comfortable doing that.

-Jesus Christ! What the hell happened to him?- Danielle moved and held Dean's limp body

-Me- Castiel replied. He gave Dean to Danielle and she put him in the cot where Adam had been earlier

-What you mean the angels took Adam?- Emma asked

-You branded his ribs, didn't you?- Bobby added

-Yes, Adam must have tipped them off-

-How?-

-I don't know. Maybe in a dream-

-They can do that? Fuck!- Danielle glared at Emma, letting her know now wasn't the time for that

-Where could've taken him?-

-The room where they took Dean before- He answered

-Okay, pretty boy, hold on- Danielle got up from Dean's side-we need to take care of him first, he's gonna fly the second he's walkin' again-

-Yeah, help me take him back to the panic room- Sam said- and you don't open the door again, got it?- he asked Castiel

-Yes-

-Great-

...

They waited for Dean to wake up as the planned a strategy to get into that angelical room where they took Adam and Sam stayed with his brother in the panic room.

-Dani, this is it-Emma told her cousin- we need to take the spell to him, I can bet my non existent paycheck Zachariah is holdin' Adam-

-Yeah, I know, but it doesn't mean we can just run right into a trap half-cocked-

-We're fully cocked- Emma argued- we've got the spell, we just need the location, and I can give you that too-

-I know, but we need back up. They must be plannin' on lurin' Dean there and blackmail him into sayin' "yes"- Danielle closed her eyes and took a deep breath- they know their weakness, and that's family-

-True, but they don't know we can kill the son of a bitch, and get Adam safe and unharmed-

-Emma, we'll get Adam, but I've gotta talk to Dean-

-Why?-

-I need to tell him the truth. He needs to know we can save his brother-

-Again, why?-

-'Cause that way, we can trick Zachariah-

-Uh?-

-Listen, here's the plan. They will be expectin' Dean, and they will be expectin' Sam, hell, they'll even expect us, but we're not goin' in-

-We're not?-

-No, we're waitin' outside, the guys go in, while we do the spell. Cass will need back up to kill the angels, we can get those two swords he's got around and help. And then we do the spell. In case things go wrong we orb into the room and kill the fucker old fashioned-

-That sounds actually good- Emma admitted- but you can't tell Sam-

-Why not?-

-We need the angels to think Dean's gonna say "yes". I can risk Dean knowin' the truth, he can bluff, but Sam will get emotional, or irrational, and it'll be more convincin' if he didn't know-

-That's kinda cruel, Em-

-It's the only way-

-Fine, I'll tell Dean-

-Great. Sam wants to take him, so that's part is covered. Just, tell him the truth, but not the whole truth-

-I know- Danielle rolled her eyes- keep Lex and Lucifer's deaths in the shadows, alright-

Emma smacked her head as she passed by her side, earning a playful glare in return.

...

-Wait, don't free him just yet- Danielle said as she walked in the panic room. Dean was sitting on the little cot and Sam was standing by the table. He smiled when he saw her. He hadn't been sure they'd join them, but as usual, they'd got their backs.

-Go arrange things with Em and Cass, they're talkin' in the study- Danielle ordered and he obeyed, giving the couple their space.

-So… I didn't think you'd be here still- Dean commented after a short silence. He was still trying to cope with his previous actions and their consequences, and of course, the false bravado always helped.

-I didn't either- Danielle admitted, taking the spot where Sam had been earlier- but this is bigger than us. Even if we don't survive, we have to take out Lucifer-

-And how you're planning on doing that?- his voice was sarcastic, but tired at the same time

-I've got my ways…- she answered evasively

-Right…-

-I'll prove it to you- she defied, walking closer to him- I can kill Zachariah, but we need to get Adam out first-

-How?-

-We go in with Cass, since the place is full of angels. We wiped them for you, but you'll got to entertain Zachariah, we need time to get Adam out-

-Okay, Adam is first priority-

-He is. It's a trap, for you- she looked straight into his green eyes- He's goin' to taunt you, use your brothers, hurt them-

-We can keep Sam out-

-No, we can't. You need to distract him. Listen, is very important that he thinks you're really givin' up. And Sam too, he can't know the secret agenda, it's dangerous-

-Alright- he nodded- but how are you gonna kill him?-

-Spell. Listen, we've got no time, let's do this, and please, Dean, if you even care about me a little bit, please, please don't say "yes"- she grabbed his face in her hands and stared at him- I know you, you're too willin' to sacrifice yourself. But in this case is not the answer, Dean. Believe me when I say I'll need you later, when we face Lucifer and Lex-

-Okay- he vowed- Fine, I trust you- she could see the honesty in his eyes, and she smiled in return.

-I love you- she told him- even though you're a dick, I love you- she hadn't say that to him since she came back from the dead, and it was nice to let it out sometimes.

-Then let's do this, baby- he kissed her hard once-I've got your back, do your best-

-Always do-

...

-Where the hell are we?- Dean asked as they appeared in an industrial part of some town

-Van Nuys, California- Castiel answered

-Where's the beautiful room?-

-In there- he pointed to what seemed like an empty factory

-The beautiful room is in an abandoned factory in Van Nuys, California?-

-Where'd you think it was?-

-I don't know…- Dean shrugged- Jupiter? Not Van Nuys…-

-Anyway, cut the crap, okay? Let's do this, we don't have all day- Emma said

-She's right- Castiel agreed- there're at least 5 angels in there-

-Okay, we can take 'em- Danielle took out her angel-killing sword and smiled- with these bad boys-

-You ready?- Emma inquired, the adrenaline in her system making her edgy and euphoric

-Never better, you?-

-Let's rock and roll, baby- they looked at Castiel and he nodded, not understanding their vocabulary enough to say anything

-Okay, be careful- Dean kissed her softly

-I'll knock twice when is ready, you go in-

-Got it-

-Shall we?- Emma opened the door and they walked in, swords in hand, ready for a fight.

-This place looks empty …- Danielle commented in a low whisper- where the hell are the angels?-

-Behind you- Castiel replied and she had just enough time to duck before he threw his sword at the angel, killing it in the spot.

-Thanks- she said sarcastically, letting out a heavy breath

-You're welcome- she rolled her eyes and continued moving towards the furthest wall of the factory, where she would do the spell to kill Zachariah.

-Dani, left!- Emma hissed, and Danielle spun around, sinking the sword into the big man's chest. The lights went off inside him and he fell, as Danielle pulled the sword down. Damn, she could use one of those all the time.

And that's how things went on. Emma killed two, while Danielle took one out and Castiel two more.

-We good?-Emma inquired, ready to let the boys in

-Yes, we're good-

-Awesome- she walked to the door and knocked two times, then ran back to Danielle's side, ready to do the spell.

-Cass, stick around, but not in here- Danielle told him in a serious tone

-Okay- he nodded and disappeared. With time, he learnt to trust her like the Winchesters did.

-Good, now, on to work, c'mon-

The two cousins knelt on the floor, taking everything they needed from a bag while the boys got into the beautiful room. Emma put a large metal bowl in the middle of the circle she drew on the floor and Danielle put the things necessary for the spell in it. The lamb blood mixed with the old goat bone, and they had to be strong to pull off this kind of magic. It was somehow darker than their usual, but together they could manage.

-Everythin'ready?-

-Ready, put the fucker's blood and we've got him- Emma said. She had the spell written on a large page of old parchment and as Danielle poured Zachariah's blood in the bowl, she began to chant. A black smoke began to crawl from the bowl and they heard a loud thud inside the room, but they couldn't hurry the process.

All the while, inside the "beautiful room", Dean was watching his brothers bleed and suffer.

-Damn it Zachariah-Dean said with real pain in his voice- Stop it please- he took one look at Sam, who stared at him through his agony fogged brain-I'll do it-

-I'm sorry, what was that?-Zachariah mocked

-Okay, yes, the answer is yes-

-Dean!- Sam's desperation was mind numbing, but powerful

-You hear me? You call Michael down, you bastard- Sam and Adam were still bleeding on the floor, but it was the last time Adam ever doubt his brother, and Emma, since she was right all along

-How do I know you're not lying?-

-Do I look like I'm lying?- Dean retorted. Zachariah smile, pride of himself, and turned around to invoke Michael. Dean's eyes met Sam, and he checked his watch, then looked back at him, and winked, as Zachariah finished the summoning. Sam, confused, couldn't focus enough to understand what his brother was doing.

-He's coming-Zachariah claimed

-Of course, I have a few conditions- Dean said suddenly, making the angel turn in annoyance. Outside, Danielle and Emma began to feel the earth quacking underneath them, but they were so close now, they couldn't stop. The power of the spell extended until it reached the room, penetrated it with a wave of strength.

-The few people whose safety you have to guarantee before I say "yes"- Dean explained. He was stalling, he knew that, but he needed just a few more seconds

-Sure, fine, make a list- Zachariah told him

-But most of all, Michael can't have me until he disintegrates you-

-What did you say?-

-I said- he spoke as he moved closer to the angel-before Michael gets one piece of this sweet ass, he has to turn you into a piece of charcoal-

Zachariah let out a short chuckle

-You really think Michael's gonna go for that?- he inquired

-Who's more important to him now?- Dean shot back- You? Or me?-

Zachariah lost the last control he had and gripped Dean by his shirt. In a menacing tone he said

-You listen to me- he looked straight into Dean's eyes, and was enraged when he couldn't see any fear in them- you are not more than a maggot inside a worm's ass. You know who I am after I deliver you to Michael?-

-Dispensable- Dean defied. Danielle knew that was it. She stood up, still working under the strong magic's influence and vanished, leaving Emma alone. She arrived in the perfect moment

-Michael's not gonna kill me- Zachariah said

-Maybe not- Danielle commented from her spot behind him. He let go of Dean and turned to face her- But I am- she chanted a few more words in quick succession and the angel began to literally disintegrate. Sam crawled to his feet as Dean helped Adam, and they all watched as Zachariah burnt, screaming in agony, to leave just a pile of ashes behind.

The earth hadn't stopped quacking, and Emma was now in the room

-We need to go, c'mon- she grabbed Sam's arm and Danielle gripped both Dean's and Adam's arms tightly and casted their very popular orbing spell.

They appeared back in Bobby's, who almost jumped from the shock, and that was saying something.

-I take you guys made it?- Bobby asked as they all stood in his study, gasping for air

-Yeah…- Danielle replied, breathlessly- we made it- she grinned triumphantly- we did it!- she kissed Dean deeply and they all chuckled, happy for the first time in a long time.

-Dani…-

-What?- she reluctantly pulled away from Dean as she heard her cousin

-Who's the boss?- Emma inquired smirking and Danielle laughed

-You're the boss!- they answered in unison and kept laughing like maniacs. Adam dragged his feet to the cot and sat down, trying to recover. Sam and Dean took seats on the chairs that were scattered around, and the girls hugged each other for a long time, celebrating their first victory.

Bobby, even Castiel was there, smiling for their won battle. They got Adam back and alive, and they saved Dean from being an archangel's Muppet. So far so good. But now they had to face the real challenge. Kill Lex, and Lucifer. Danielle was dying to tell them all about Juliet's plan, but she couldn't. Not yet at least. But as soon as she knew exactly what they were going to do, she was going to scream it for everyone to hear.

-What time is it?- Emma asked when they finally relaxed enough to notice they were exhausted

-3 a.m- Bobby answered- you really should take a nap, you've been up since, when? Yesterday morning?-

-Yeah, probably…- Emma yawned and shook her head trying to stay awake- I think we should sleep-

-Yeah, we should- with the adrenaline gone, they were totally drained, even the power of the magic they used was residual now, and it only made their bodies tinkle, not something that could keep them up for long.

-Cass, can you heal them?- Emma looked at the angel expectantly but he shook his head in denial

-I'm not strong enough now- he explained and she nodded, hand up to stop the apology that was surely coming

-Don't worry- she said- we'll handle it tomorrow- she paused and re formulated-or later today, whatever. We need to rest for a few hours before we can do anythin' else-

-Yeah, relax, I've got the house covered for angels, demons, and anything in between- Bobby assured- I only hope you kid won't tip them off again- he joked to Adam, who smiled weakly but shook his head

-I learnt my lesson- he admitted- and I'm dead tired-

-Me too- Sam got up and walked over to Emma's side, wrapping an arm around her waist-let's go upstairs and sleep for God's sakes- he pleaded. Emma chuckled once but accepted his offer

-Yeah, let's clean your face up, Dexter- She waved to everyone-see ya guys later, sleep tight-

-See ya- Danielle smiled as she watched the couple go upstairs

-You're gonna be okay here? We can let you our bed- Dean was talking to Adam

-No, it's okay. I'll be fine- Dean nodded and got up, going to Danielle-Dean- Adam called and Dean turned around to face him, eyebrows raised- I'm sorry for doubting you- Again, Danielle smiled at how well the day had ended after all.

-Don't mention it- he replied and put a comforting hand on his brother's shoulder- have some rest, I'm sure something's waiting for us in the morning-

-Yeah…- Adam grinned, this time for real and Danielle decided he deserved some peace of mind

-Listen…- she said to him as she sat down beside him. Dean waited as Bobby went to check the house- you're welcome here, of course, but if you want to go on your own, we understand- she wasn't his sister, but she knew the boys would welcome him if he wanted to stay, or respect his decision if he wanted to go

-No, I wanna help- Adam sounded pretty sure- The devil still has to be stopped, and if you've got a way, I believe you-

-Great- Danielle smiled at him sweetly- awesome then, we could use one more soldier in this battle- she squeezed his hand once and got up, wrapping an anxious arm around Dean-sleep well, tomorrow we'll find you new clothes- she smirked and Adam let out an actual chuckle, which made her change her smirk for a real loving smile. She barely knew the kid, but she liked him. He was a Winchester in the heart.

...

-I can believe we did it- Dean said as she closed the door of their bedroom

-I hate to say "I told you so"-

-You love to say "I told you so"- he argued- but you were right- he pulled her closer to him and stared into her ocean blue eyes- and, I was such a dick!- he exclaimed in realization- you should kick my ass and throw my things out of the window-

-Cass beat me to it- she replied playfully- I really don't care what you thought you were doin', I just care that we got your brother safe and we killed that son of a bitch-

-Yeah, you were awesome, by the way- he complimented- how did you do that?-

-Babe, we're in that place right now, where I don't wanna talk- she laughed shortly- we can talk all you want tomorrow, or after I sleep anyway, I'm tired, and that's the understatement of the freakin' year-

-Okay, you're right, we should rest- he slowly began to take out her clothes, first her T shirt, then she kicked off her own shoes and followed with the jeans- I'm sure the Apocalypse will be there when we get up-

-Mmm-mmm, surely- Danielle murmured as she lost herself in Dean's touch. It wasn't perfect, their relationship, but there was one thing for sure, and it was that they loved each other, maybe too much for their own good. But tonight it served them right at least, and that was what mattered.

...

-I shouldn't be lettin' you do this- Emma complained as Sam slowly took her clothes off, laying her down on the bed and kissing her slightly

-Don't be a buzz killer- he muttered through his kiss- I'm not planning on doing anything extra special, I just wanna get over this stupid stage we're in-

-What stage?-

-The one my brother put us in- he let go of her lips and sighed- I'm sorry he was such a moron, but that's who he is. And I'm thankful you saved my brother, I am, and I want to know what you're planning to kill Lucifer, I do, but for tonight, if you don't mind, I'd rather enjoy you, right here, and catch up with some over due sleep-

Emma smiled at him, unable to help herself

-Okay, Sam…- she nodded and he got comfortable beside her, arm wrapped around her waist, pulling her close to his bare body. And there was no need for words then. They were past that stage where they fought and chose sides, and now they were ready to fight in the same side, to beat the same enemy. They had their priorities in place, and though he never doubted her, she needed to see he was capable of standing beside her if she demanded so.

...

-Okay, the boys are outside, I told Adam to keep 'em entertained- Emma said as the two cousins made their way to the panic room

-Great, let's get to work, then-

They prepared the same ritual they used the day before to summon Juliet. It was dark outside, the sun was setting and they were enjoying a rare quiet day. They boys were outside practicing with Adam, and Bobby was somewhere, probably researching. Again, they used Danielle's blood to call her mother from the other world, and after a few minutes, Juliet Cobain was there, on the flesh.

-Hi mom- Danielle greeted her and, like last time, Juliet hugged her daughter

-You were amazin'!- she congratulated them- you did it! I'm so proud of you!-

-Thanks, Auntie, but we need to know what else you've got in store for us- Emma was anxious to get into motion again

-Right, yes- Juliet sat on the little cot, again, and tried to focus- great, let's see. Liv said there's this spell, in her book…-

-This one?- Emma held up Olivia's protected book and Juliet nodded

-That one- she assured- and, first, let me tell you that that symbol, is for protection-

-And power- Emma added- I know, Aunt, I can live with it, just tell me how to kill Lex-

-Yes, Lex. Well, you need the talisman…-

-This one- Emma took it out of her pocket and Juliet smiled

-That one, yes. There's a spell in there, used to kill any supernatural bein'-

-Any supernatural bein'?- Danielle repeated- any?-

-With the right power, yes, any-

-And how do we channel the power?-

-That's the tricky part- Juliet admitted and turned to face her daughter, her ocean blue eyes meeting Danielle's in the barely lit room- you're the only one capable of channel that kind of energy. This battle, won't be yours entirely. You'll need back up, Lex's not alone-

-I figured…- Emma muttered- but you say that with this spell I can kill him?-

-Yes, if you channel the power of the talisman, then yes, surely-

-We need anythin' special for that or…?-

-No, nothin'. Things should go like this: Emma will be the one to cast the spell, and face Alexander, while Danielle should stayed behind, well protected, to focus on channelin' enough power to give Emma a fair advantage- her gaze shadowed, her eyes frozen with worry-Girls, it won't be easy-

-But we can get rid of him?-

-Yes, that part is absolutely possible- Juliet assured

-And what about Lucifer?- Danielle inquired- we get Lex, then we have to get Lucifer-

-Yes, Lucifer…- Juliet sighed- that is more difficult, or easier, dependin' on your point of view-

-What you mean?- the three women were now sitting in a little round, facing each other

-Liv found that there's this sword, Heaven's sword, literally, that can kill everythin' and anythin'-

-Okay, awesome, where do we find it?-

-You'll need your angel's help for that- Juliet told her- it's in Heaven, in a very secured room, with an angel bodyguard 24/7. His name is Virgil, and you won't need to kill him if you can pull off a successful con- she was thoughtful for a moment- but if you can get another angel, that'd be awesome-

-Why?-

-Angels don't work like we do, there's a greater chance of success if they find the sword and bring it to you-

-Can you tell me where exactly is this sword?- Danielle asked- I'll need to tell Cass-

-Yes, I can tell you, hell, I can even draw a freakin' map- Juliet chuckled. I'd do anythin' to help, kid-

-I know- Danielle grinned sweetly- okay, I'd say we call Cass-

-What about the boys' Shouldn't we tell them?-

-First, let's this sword really exists, then we talk-

-Alright, you pray, I hate it- Emma got up and so did Juliet, as they watched Danielle prayed for Castiel

-Cass, hi, it's Dani, we kinda need your help… See, we've got a lead on Lucifer and…-

-I'm here- though they were expecting him, he startled them anyway

-Jesus, knock next time, would ya?-

-What's the lead?- he asked at the same time he eyed Juliet suspiciously, narrowing his eyes

-See anythin' you like, pretty boy?- Juliet teased, making the girls snort

-Excuse my mother, she'd been up too long- Danielle said as an apology

-Hey!- Juliet slapped her arm softly- I'm perfectly capable of takin' care of myself, thanks-

-Anyway, back to the lead- Emma spoke- Cass, you know any room in Heaven that holds angelical weapons?- He looked at her alarmed

-Yes, indeed, I do- he answered- why?-

-Rumor has it there's this sword, Heaven's sword, the actual weapon, that can kill anythin'…-

-That weapon is under Virgil's watch, every day and every night-

-Okay, I get it, but there's any way we can get it? I mean, is the only logical solution to this whole mess-

-I know someone who might help- Castiel said hesitantly- but he's difficult to locate-

-I can do it- Juliet jumped forward, excited- tell me his name and I'll find the bastard-

-His name is Balthazar- Castiel told them- he's the only one besides Virgil who might know how to get the sword-

-Great, give me a day, tops, and I'll have your angel- Juliet vowed- you girls work on findin' Lex and his master, then practice that spell in weaker beings, it may help-

-Okay, weaker beings like…?-

-Demons, vampires, werewolf, all those things you hunted before that I hated- She said to Danielle

-Great, we've got a deal, now, Cass, you wanna stick around? We're gonna have a loooong talk with the boys…-

-I'll try to find Balthazar- he replied and disappeared, just like that

-Damn him- Emma cursed- whatever, we should let you go now, uh?- she looked at her aunt and she nodded

-Yes, I'm on a deadline, I should get to work- she hugged her girls again and slowly, she began to vanish

-We'll see ya soon, mom-

-Yeah. I promise I'll get your angel, darlin', trust me-

-I do- Danielle kept and arm around her cousin's waist- we both do, right?-

-Of course, nobody better to do the job. Go get him, Jules, we know you're the best-

-Your mom's the best, I'm the second-

-Then tell her to move her ass, we don't have all year- Emma smirked as Danielle laughed, throwing her head back in delight.

-Check in with me tomorrow- Juliet told them- I should have news by then-

-Same time?-

-No, earlier, morning actually- she nodded- yeah, that should give me enough time-

-Okay, we'll see ya then-

-See ya- they waved as Juliet vanished completely, leaving only a light trace of smoke behind.

Danielle let out a heavy sigh. She squeezed her cousin's waist and let her go, facing her

-Now we've gotta face the lions-

-Yeah- Emma smirked to her, and began walking up the stairs- but any problem they have, I'm sure we can vamp our way out with sex-

Their laughter was the noisiest sound on the house, except for the firing shot gun outside.

-Better get them far from that…- Emma murmured, opening the door to the back yard

-You take Sam I take Dean, we'll let Adam decide what to do-

-He'll chose the winin' side-

-Meanin' us, of course- Danielle said with a smile

-Of course, darlin', who else?-

A/N: Sorry, I couldn't bear killing Adam, I like the guy, he's cool... Anyway, tell me what you think

Peace to all, Maggie
