Chapter Three- Let's Take Five
The three of them stood in place, breathing heavily. Sam threw down the fast food, Dean had his gun at the ready. Castiel, however, was looking at the floor, confusion still on his face, as he slowly raised a hand to his facial injuries.
Dean took a step forward, "Is everyone alright?" His voice gruff with anger, he looked back and forth between the other two.
Sam surreptitiously checked something in his lower regions, and sighed with relief, "Yep, I'm good."
Castiel let out a sigh as well, though it was very far from relieved. "Sam, at what point did you stop being a female?" His voice was heavy.
"Um, right when I got zapped into the impala, a few blocks away with food in the passenger seat. I came back as quick as I could." He picked up the slightly squashed bag and threw it away with a look of distrust.
"So you returned to normal, right as Dean and I became... affected?"
"I guess so. Why?"
Dean suddenly seemed to pick up on something, "What's wrong, Cas?"
Cas sighed, and his eyes shifted off to the side, "Dean, the dialogue forced upon us made one thing clear. The time frame of that argument was after we took the ring from Pestilence, but before we went to stop the fight between Michael and Lucifer."
Understanding flickered into Dean's green eyes, "When you were human."
"Precisely. I collapsed, and when I stood up, I was human. Once the... conversation was over, I'd assumed I'd be..." His voice trailed. His eyes searched along the back wall, avoiding the Winchesters.
"Cas, are you human?" Sam barely whispered through his amazement.
Dean picked up his bag, "Well damn. That's it, we are going to Bobby's. It's only about an hour away. Screw the haunting in Minnesota, their accents are annoying anyway, we are fixing this bag of batshit craziness."
The resolve in his voice went unquestioned by the others. They were packed and on the road in minutes.
Isabella strolled through the grocery aisles, humming the theme song to "Jaws" to herself. She was nearly done shopping.
