A/N: okay, my friend has informed me that it's actually written as d20, though because I am too lazy to change it, you will all have to live with that spelling error in the first chapter. I'm also gonna need her to help me out with my lingo a little but whatever... Anyway, enjoy!

Dean opened his eyes and grunted, God, he felt like he weighed a million pounds... And wait, when did he fall asleep?

"Dean?" He heard Sam call, the elder Winchester turned his head and froze at what he saw. His little brother had long ears -what was he a Vulcan?- and his hair reached his chest now, he was clad in a forest green cloak and a brown tunic.

"Dude, Sammy, why the hell do you look like you just stepped out of a 'Lord Of The Rings' box set?" Dean said, puzzled at his brother's sudden change in appearance.

"Says the guy who looks like one of the mountain trolls..." Sam replied. Well at least his sass wasn't affected- wait... What did he mean by mountain trolls?

"The hell are you talking abou-"

Dean was interrupted by a loud squealing noise next to him, he and Sam quickly wheeled around to see Charlie waving her hands around with a huge grin on her face.

"What the hell?!"

They all turned to see Bobby getting up from the ground next to them and... Oh. Well that was certainly different. Bobby stood there -as pissed as they'd ever seen him- standing at around four foot three with a much fuller beard and a dark blue hood on his head.

"What did you idjits do this time?!" Bobby snapped.

"Apparently Gabriel is alive and now we're lost," Dean grumbled, turning to stare at his brother again because this was all just much too bizarre and he feared that if he kept looking at Bobby he would burst out laughing.

"Well that's just- wait a minute, where's Cas?"

Sam heard movement beside him and glanced down at the still unconscious figure next to him. It looked like Cas but with short red horns, a thin tail, and cloven hooves instead of feet.

"What the fuck?!" Dean exclaimed upon noticing these things as well. "Why is Cas a demon?!" He added, turning towards Charlie in hope of an answer.

"He isn't a demon, he's a Tiefling. They have a bit of demon in them further up the family tree but they usually aren't evil, someone should wake him up but uhh... Brace yourself for when he opens his eyes, okay?"

"Wait, why-"

Dean got his answer when Cas's eyes slowly opened and he froze at what he saw. His eyes were bright yellow-gold in colour, no whites and no pupils, just gold.

"D-Dean? What's going on?" Cas asked, confused by the horrified and shocked faces that were surrounding him.

It took a minute or two before the hunter could even form words, still in a bit of a shocked daze he answered shakily; "Gabriel... He uh... I think he trapped us in our game..."

Cas nodded, then paused, "why are you all looking at me like that?" He asked since nobody had stopped staring at him yet.

"If we can find a mirror then we can all get a good look at ourselves, seeing as we seem to have undergone some crazy changes..." Sam reasoned logically. "I think I see a village over there," he added, spying the outline of buildings on the horizon. The group nodded and followed as Sam began to lead the way towards the village, all curious and just a little scared at what they would find.

"So... Charlie? Do you have any idea why Cas is..."

"Like that? I don't know, I guess Gabriel just thought it'd be funny to turn the angel into something resembling a demon..." Charlie answered with a shrug. "Why? Does it really bother you that much?"

"I don't know... It's just... OffPutting..." Dean explained with a shudder as Cas turned those bright, golden eyes on him again and raised a questioning eyebrow.

"Are you alright, Dean?" He asked.

"Y-yeah, Cas... Your eyes are just freakin' me out a little..." Dean said dismissively, resisting the urge to flinch when it seemed like Cas hadn't blinked in minutes.

"My eyes? What's wrong with my eyes?"

"They're kind of... Bright yellow, Cas..." Sam interjected.

Cas turned questioning eyes on the younger Winchester and Sam tried to find something reflective, sadly coming up with nothing, he did find a bag of gold and silver though, which he imagined would be useful later.

They all decided to walk faster in order to find a mirror, or else they would probably all be slowly going crazy.

The group finally made it into the village and oh the looks they got! Hard glares, quizzical, curious, or fearful stares, all in all it made the small party a little uncomfortable.

They all trudged into an armoury and sighed happily when they noticed a large mirror at the back of the shop. They let Dean and Cas go first since their changes were the most drastic and Dean's face was surely one to behold when he witnessed the fact that he seemed to have sprouted thick, pointed teeth out of a slightly underbitten jaw, along with the fact that his skin had changed to a light green-ish colour.

"What the hell?!" He exclaimed, tentatively touching one of the large fangs now protruding from his mouth.

Cas's reaction wasn't much better to be honest... He squeaked and jumped backwards when he saw his own eyes and started shaking when he saw the rest of his physical appearance. Some things were still the same though, lean yet decently muscular body, ruffled and disheveled black hair, slight five-o-clock shadow and the same rough, gravelly voice.

"Oh God, I look like a demon!" Cas bawled, burying his face in his hands.

"No shit, you're a Tiefling, you idiot." Someone browsing through armour next to their little group said.

"Hey! What the hell is your problem?!" Dean snapped back, wrapping a comforting arm around Cas when he shrank back a little at the stranger's insult.

"Dude, chill out, he's just a piece of Tiefling scum. The product of ancestors who made a deal with a fiend for power. There's no need to get worked up over defending him or anything," the guy replied nonchalantly. Not really surprised by the intensity of the half-Orc's glare, it was pretty common for his species to have that hard look in their eyes.

Dean didn't respond this time, just stepped aside as Sam took his place in front of the mirror, though he did step in front of Cas in a protective manner, putting some distance between him and the stranger who seemed to like insulting Tieflings.

Sam's eyes widened a little when he saw himself, it was strange to see that his ears had elongated and his hair had grown out a bit, but at least he hadn't sprouted demon horns and a tail like Cas, or an underbite and fangs like his brother.

"I actually kinda like it," he said with a small smile.

"You got off easy, Sammy." Dean grumbled.

Bobby didn't step in front of the mirror, he got the gist of it, he didn't want to see himself in this weird state anyway. He noticed none of them actually had any weapons and he intended to rectify that.

"Okay ya' idjits, listen up. We got no weapons and from what little I know from Charlie here, there's a butt-load 'a monsters crawlin' around these parts. So everybody search your pockets and see if you can find any money." The older hunter ordered, determined to get his team on track and out of this crazy nightmare ASAP.

"I've got some gold and some silver." Charlie announced after rooting through her pockets. The rest of the team said the same and they all assumed Gabriel had given them the currency in order to help them out at least a little.

They browsed around the armoury until they found a well made Morningstar for Dean, a large, steel-looking battleaxe and a wooden short bow for Sam, a glaive -Dean picked it out, insisting that he would look awesome using it- for Cas, a greatsword -according to her she had always wanted to use one- for Charlie, and lastly, a war pick for Bobby since he was currently stuck in the body of a dwarf and everyone thought it was fitting.

"That'll be one hundred and twenty-five gold pieces." The person behind the counter said, glancing shiftily around at the party of adventurers.

They all produced their small pouches full of gold and silver pieces, passing them over the counter and receiving their weapons. Each nodding their thanks before leaving the shop.

"Ugh, let's hit the bar..." Dean grumbled, hurrying his party along and into the inn.

"Round of mead all around!" Charlie called, waving over a bar wench and winking at her. The woman winked back and came back a few minutes later with a round of mead in giant flagons.

"This is what I'm talkin' about!" Dean exclaimed happily as he picked up the beverage and took a large swig.

"Dean, slow down. We do not want you getting intoxicated." Cas said, taking a very tentative sip of his mead.

"Lighten up, Cas. If we're stuck in Dungeons and Dragons anyway, might as well have a little fun!" Dean slurred -that mead sure went through his system quick- happily.

"Night, guys."

"Goodnight, Sam, Dean, Bobby, Charlie."

After everyone retired to their rooms -Sam and Dean took one, Charlie and Cas took another, while Bobby took the last one since it was a single and he didn't want to be disturbed- they settled into a restless sleep.

"Cas. Cas, wake up. Cas! Oh for the love of- Cas! Dean's missing!"

Cas woke with a start and sat bolt upright, seeing Charlie staring exasperatedly at him.

"What?! Where's Dean?!"

"Relax, Cas. I had to wake you up, sorry for scaring you."

"It is fine, Charlie..."

"You're a real heavy sleeper, Y'know that, Cas?"

"I am aware, yes..."

"And you snore."

"Is that really important?"

"No, come on, let's go wake up Sam and Dean, you know they're still asleep..."
