AN: Sorry about the super long first chapter, I went back and divided it into four parts, I'm still trying to figure out how to work fanfiction. I would also like to appologize for any spelling or gramatical mistakes, some of them just slip thorugh the cracks.
I OWN NOTHING, except the story. All characters belong to their respective networks (CW- Supernatural & SYFY- Haven)
CHAPTER 5
The room was quiet after Castiel left, no body moved, everyone was shocked into silence. Nathan was the first to recover as he started to walk towards the door again, this time he was going to find Audrey no matter what.
"Where do you think you're going?" Dean asked.
"I'm going to find Audrey, she shouldn't be alone right now."
"And what are you going to do when you find her? Tell her the truth, tell her what Cas said?"
"Actually I was thinking cupcakes," Nathan said with a smile, "She always binges on cupcakes when she's faced with life altering information."
"So you aren't going to tell her?" Sam asked.
"Not today. Your friend said to keep going like everything was normal, so I will. Before Audrey called I was talking to the new Reverend and he thinks he knows a Troubled person who needs help. He seems to be more understanding than the Rev was. Anyway, I figure I'll grab some cupcakes and Audrey and I can check that out while you guys to do whatever Castiel told you to." As soon as he finished Nathan walked out of the office leaving the other men alone to do their research.
"So…where does a person find information pertaining to ancient summoning ceremonies in this town?" Dean asked with a smile.
"Well, normally I'd say the offices of The Haven Herald, but our records aren't that extensive." Dave answered.
"The library archives are our best bet," Vince said, "but if you can't find anything come by The Herald and we'll see what we can find together."
"Thanks guys." Sam said.
"If you need anything will be at the Herald looking through our records for any indications of Troubled people." Vince said.
"And if I were you, I'd stay away from Audrey right now. She tends not to think when she's angry, and you've made her furious." Dave said giving Dean a pointed look.
"And if I don't stay away, will she kill me like she did the Rev?" He asked with a sinister smile.
"She didn't kill the Rev in anger." Vince said.
"He was threatening some Troubled children." Dave added.
"The windegos." Sam said quietly.
"You mean to tell me that an angel killed a man of God in order to protect some monsters?" Dean asked. The idea itself was preposterous.
"It's not like you think," Dave said, "They were just some Troubled kids in the woods that needed help."
"Audrey went to help them while the Rev went to kill them," Vince continued, "Audrey was just protecting them."
"What else would you do a monster, besides kill them?" Dean asked. He was sure that he and this Rev person would have seen eye to eye.
"No, the Rev wanted to kill them because they were Troubled, not because they were monsters."
"He probably would have tried to kill Nathan and Audrey as well if he thought he could get away with it."
"Why would he try to kill an angel?" Sam asked, confused.
"Oh, he didn't know she was-is one," Dave answered, "he just thought she was Troubled like Nathan."
"What do you mean by Troubled?"
"This town is cursed. We call them the Troubles, every twenty seven years or so, some of the people of Haven become afflicted with supernatural abilities." Vince answered.
"Audrey showed up a few months ago. Only a few people knew she was- or use to be Lucy Ripley. She helped the Troubled like she always did-does every twenty seven years. The Rev knew something was off about her, he knew she was Lucy. So he just figured she had an affliction of some sort."
"Give me an example of a Trouble." Dean challenged.
"Controlling the weather." Dave answered.
"Shape shifting." Vince continued.
"Making your dreams become real."
"Invisibility."
"Creating force fields."
"What does Nathan do?" Sam asked interrupting the two men's ramblings. "You said the rev thought she was Troubled like Nathan."
"Yeah, what's lover boy's problem?" Dean asked with a sneer, he was still upset about getting knocked out.
"He can't feel." Dave answered sadly.
"Good for him, no wonder he didn't feel me stab him in the back." Dean replied sarcastically.
"When you say he can't feel," Sam began hesitantly, "do you mean he can't feel anything?"
"That's right," Vince answered with a nod, "every twenty seven years Nathan loses the ability to feel anything physical, until the Troubles leave."
"Except for Audrey," Dave said with a smile, "He can feel her, and only her."
"Oh." Was all Dean could think to say. Not being able to feel pain would have been cool, but not feeling anything-that would suck. The room fell into an awkward silence until Sam decided it was time to go. The Winchester brothers bid the Teagues brothers farewell as the each split up to do their own research for Cas. It was going to be a very long day.
Dean and Sam were on their way to the town's library when the saw her again. She wasn't very hard to spot, the street was deserted. The brothers knew it was because she was using her angelic powers to keep people away. Dean leaned down in his seat trying to avoid her gaze, he was about to keep on driving when he saw a man sit on the bench beside her.
Dean swatted Sam's arm getting the younger man's attention.
"Who do you think she's talking to?"
"I don't know, I don't live here." Sam answered irritably, "why does it matter?"
"Look around," Dean said gesturing towards the empty street, "everyone's avoiding her, hell I feel like we shouldn't even be here, and this guy just calmly walks up and sits next to her? I'm not buying it, something's off."
"Maybe she knows him," Sam suggested, "she's smiling at him and they're talking."
"And now she looks confused," Dean said noticing Audrey's sudden change in facial expressions, "something is defiantly off about this guy."
Sam opened his mouth to reply, but closed it when he saw her abruptly stand to leave, only to see the Mystery guy grab her face.
"Shit!" Dean whispered as he started to open his door to get out.
"Hey Audrey," Dean quickly shut his door and settled into his seat, "Nathan's going to get jealous if he sees you kissing strangers on the street. Come on, hop in I'll give you a ride to The Gull." A lean dark haired man yelled from his Land Rover.
Dean watched as Audrey said a few words to the Mystery guy and then she headed towards the dark haired man's car.
"Cheer up Michael, I have a feeling we'll meet again very soon." She yelled over her shoulder.
"I know." The man- Michael yelled back sounding sad.
As the car Audrey was in sped up Main Street Dean turned to his brother.
"What do you think of this Michael guy?" He asked.
Sam shrugged, "Maybe he's Troubled and looking for help."
"He's not a local, the man Audrey left with called him a stranger. And I thought only the townspeople were cursed.
"Dean, I know what you're thinking, but it can't be him."
"Why not?"
"He's in The Pit." Sam answered confidently.
"And you were at one time too."
"So, you think the archangel Michael escaped The Pit just so he could take a vessel and come to Main in order to have a chat with Audrey?"
"That is not a vessel," Castiel said appearing in the Impala's back seat, "and he would do anything in order to speak to Ariel."
"Why?" Dean asked curious as to why this Audrey person was so important.
"She is his sister."
