Chapter 3: Discovery

Bobby's POV

"Sam?" Bobby was surprised that Sam had hung up on him like that. "I wonder what got him believing that he had a brother." He let out a sigh and took a long look around his old beat home.

Knock, knock! Bobby grabbed his gun and some holy water, and made his way to the door. No one ever came over without calling first. He opened the door and tossed the holy water out at the man who had just knocked. After finding that the water did nothing, he aimed the gun at the man's heart.

"Who are you and what do you want?"

"You mean you can see me?" The man asked.

"What are you talking about? Of course I can see you. Now answer my question."

"Bobby, it's me Dean."

"Are you trying to pull a prank on me or something?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Someone just called me about someone named Dean,"

"Was his name Sam?" Dean asked eagerly.

"You better be a friend of his or I'll blow your brains out," Bobby said, tightening his grip on the gun.

"Bobby, I'm his brother."

"Sam doesn't have a brother."

"Okay Bobby, I'll prove it to you… I'm a hunter like you and Sam."

"Prove that you're a hunter."

"Fine. That stuff you tossed on me was holy water to make sure I wasn't a demon."

"I need more then that," Bobby said a little irritated.

"Okay, to get rid of a ghost you torch its corpse. To kill a vampire you cut off its head, and yes angels do exist."

"Even though you know all this hunter stuff, it doesn't mean you're Sam's brother, and how would you know about angels. I reckon only a handful of people have ever seen one. I only saw one because it came to Sam asking for his help."

"That angel came to me not Sam," Dean said more to himself than to Bobby. He then turned to Bobby and asked, "Was this angel's name Castiel?"

"Yeah why?"

"Because the angel came to me for help. He even pulled out of hell to get it."

Sam's POV

Man this is too weird. Why did Dad, who is supposed to be dead, ask me a question like that? Sam was sitting there, thinking about it when a bright light flashed and revealed Castiel standing there.

"Where is Dean?" Castiel asked.

"I don't know. Last night he was telling me to go to bed, and this morning he was gone."

"This could be bad. A very powerful trickster is causing everyone to believe that he was never your brother. Another bad thing, everyone except you can see hear and touch him. He is trying to keep you two separated while he searches for the colt."

"Why is he looking for the colt?"

"Alastair hired him to break the next seal, and to break it he needs the colt."

"What part does the colt play in this seal?"

"The whole part. Sam, he's going to try and open hell's gate."

"The gate in the cemetery in the middle of the railroad?"

"Yes."

"We have to find Dean now!"

"Well I hope you know where he is, Sam. The trickster is blocking me from tracking him and Dean," Castiel said sternly. "I can't help you here."

Another flash of light and Castiel was gone.

"Why do you even bother showing up if you're not going to help," Sam muttered. h h ______________________________________________________________________________________________________Again, I am sorry that it took me so long to update and for such a short chapter.
