Brooklyn and Castiel learn their fate as the crew makes it to Tennessee…

The buyers gathered in the auction house anxious for the night's sales to begin. Their invitations had indicated this would be an auction not to miss as there were several special auctions to be held. The atmosphere was charged with excitement and anticipation as the potential buyers wondered what the special auctions could be. Speculation rose as to what Colin had in store for them this evening as they continued to file in taking their seats. The sea of buyers reflected a cross section of powerful figures from the Other side. Vampires, demons and even some humans in powerful positions had gathered to take part in the evening's events. Many already owned slaves used for various personal gains.

Colin stood above the masses smiling to himself as Ciara came up beside him. Her green eyes flashed with excitement as he continued to stare down below. For her this was a sweeter payback for that damned daughter of Gabriel. She reached over snaking an arm around her mate's waist leaning into his body as she observed the scene play out below.

Castiel looked over as Brooklyn strained to see through the small gap in the curtains seeing only shapes and movement. Sighing, she turned her head back and looked at the chains bound to her wrists as she tugged on them. The dark magic Darius had placed on the manacles had ensured that their powers could not be used in any escape attempt or against their captors. Brooklyn could feel the dark energy burning into her skin as the cold metal cuffs remained tight around her wrists. She made a note to track down Darius when she got out of this mess. She let her mind wander as anxiety and uncertainty swept over. She hated not knowing what was going on on the other side of the black velvet curtain. She could hear multiple voices echoing through the grand hall. She didn't even have to ask whose voices those were as she already knew the answer. They were the buyers anxious to fight against one another to be the sole owner of her and her angel. The thought of being owned by something so foul disgusted her deeply.

Castiel had watched her as her mind wandered in thought. He felt her disgust and anxiety as she sat there knowing they were going to be sold to some dark creature. He leaned over holding her hand in his lifting to his lips as he pressed them against her soft skin. Brooklyn felt herself smile at him as the love she shared for him pushed out all other thoughts. He felt her brilliant grey pools locked deep into his sapphire blue ones blocking the world around them out. He pressed his forehead against hers offering what little comfort and contact he could as they remained bound.

"Cas, I'm scared…" she whispered softly. Her angel sensed she was afraid of losing him after all they had been through. It was killing him he couldn't reach out and wrap his arms around her small waist and hold her tight.

"I know you are, Brook. If I tell you something, will you promise not to tell a soul?" Brooklyn nodded her head looking in his bright blue eyes.

"I'm afraid too, Brook. I'm afraid that no one will be able to save us from this nightmare." His words of doubt did not surprise Brooklyn as she too had harbored her own doubts about being saved from this living Hell.

"You're not the only one, Cas. I don't think anyone will be able to find us in time and that we will all be ripped apart forced to face an unknown fate."

Raphael and Gabriel could watch as the angels sought what solace they could in one another. It was breaking their hearts to see them be torn apart once again. His daughter had finally found peace and solace with Castiel only to now face that same serenity being threatened. Gabriel made a solemn vow to stop Colin when they got out of this. He had a suspicion Colin was working with darker forces as their absence created a disadvantage for Heaven's armies. He could only pray as they sat there hearing the crowd fall silent.

"Good evening and thank you all for being here on this special night as this will be one auction you shall never forget" Colin's voice rang out across the vast room capturing his buyers' attention with those ancient orbs and commanding presence. He grinned as every single set of eyes were now focused on him. He waited a few seconds as the crowd was feeling a little anxious. He started speaking again with his calm and strong voice.

"And without any further delay, let us begin the sale!" The buyers cheered and clapped as he exited the walkway.

Brooklyn heard footsteps as Colin made his presence known to the angels. He eyed the four seraphs as he walked up and down like a drill sergeant inspecting his recruits. He stopped at Raphael first motioning for the demon that followed him to release the Healer. The demon grabbed Raphael by the bicep forcing him on his feet. Raphael's vessel's strong features hardened as Colin sized him up looking him over. He grabbed the angel's face in his hand staring hard into Raphael's hazel orbs. The angel's deep blue eyes went hard as the vampire spoke.

"Raphael, the Healer. For centuries you watched over and healed the sick and injured in battle. Too bad for your kind you won't be around to provide your services. Take him out" Colin barked as the demon grabbed the angel leading him towards the walkway to start the auction. Brooklyn shot a pure look of disgust at the Elder vampire. Colin felt the angel's cold stare burn into his soul as he whipped around grabbing her by the shoulder digging his nails into her flesh. Brooklyn continued to stare into those green ancient depths not backing down from him. She would bring a high price indeed.

Castiel could only watch as his angel continued staring down the Elder as if daring him to try something and see what happened. Gabriel was also witness to the battle of wills as neither refused to relent.

"Brooklyn Ravenwood, the last daughter of Gabriel" the vampire hissed looking over at the Archangel.

"You flinched, vampire" she said coldly as Colin turned around coming within inches of her face his green eyes narrowing into slits as his hand dug further into her skin.

"I'm gonna enjoy watching you get sold to the highest bidder, angel. You and your precious Castiel" he growled as he released her shoulder leaving five angry nail marks that already began to vanish. She looked at Gabriel and Castiel seeing disappointment etched in their faces.

"Brook, what were you doing?" Castiel asked.

"I won. Colin flinched" she simply stated as Brooklyn closed her eyes hearing the crowd scream and attempt to outbid one another on Raphael. The furious voices continued on until she heard a gavel slam and applause roar amongst the buyers. The angels lowered their heads as they knew their brother was gone. Colin soon appeared ready for Gabriel. The Archangel looked over at his daughter seeing sorrow darken her once bright eyes.

"Leave him alone!" She cried out as the demon grabbed Gabriel forcing him up. Colin looked over at her with a smug expression upon his face as he conducted his once over. He nodded to the demon as the Archangel was led away never breaking away from her grey eyes.

"Gabriel…" she whispered feeling the hot tears rapidly well up and fall. She felt her heart breaking as she saw him turn around the corner hearing the crowds react as Gabriel was auctioned off. Castiel sat there feeling helpless as his angel sat there sobbing and grieving at losing her Archangel.

"Why are we being put through this, Cas? What did we do wrong? Is this another test of faith?" Brooklyn sobbed feeling Castiel's hand squeeze hers tightly. She felt her family being ripped apart as the gavel slammed down indicating Gabriel had just been sold.

I'll find you Gabriel, even if I have to go to Hell and back I will bring you back…Brooklyn vowed as Colin now stood before them grinning at them. The vampire knew that it was worth saving the best for last.

"Ready to meet your potential owner, angels?" Colin asked as he reached out touching Brooklyn's tear streaked face. The vampire saw his chance to taunt the angel as she sat there sobbing. "What's wrong, Brooklyn? Not so tough are you now that your precious Gabriel is gone. But don't worry, it will soon be over and you will meet your new master." He let his fingers linger as he lightly traced them across her skin like a lover would. He could smell the heavenly essence on her and Castiel as he felt his fangs begin to slide down.

"Get the angels out there" he barked pleased with their appearances. Brooklyn and Castiel were led around the corner as she felt her heart sinking. Colin grinned at them as his fangs remained lowered not caring if the angels were repulsed by the pleasure he was feeling from this.

The one with the coal black irises watched as the angelic pair were paraded around the walkway before being forced to stand in place. He could see the hardness in her grey eyes as the demon showed her off revealing her toned legs and ass for the buyers to see. This only drove up the price as Brooklyn looked at them with pure disgust. The demon turned his attention to Castiel pulling the angel's unbuttoned shirt open exposing the taught chest and abs beneath. Some of the female buyers screamed out with lust and want as they hollered out their bids.

"20 million!"
"25 million!"

"35 million!"

"38 million!" As the price for the angels continued to climb as the black eyed man stood and watched waiting for the right moment. He felt a smile cross his lips as the price reached 60 million on its way to 70 million.

"80 million!" A red haired demon yelled out daring any of the other bidders to go higher.

"I have 80 million. Do I hear 82 million? 80 million going once, 80 million going twice…"
"125 million dollars" The ice cold voice echoed through the room as hush spread amongst the buyers. All eyes turned to the black eyed man as he casually strolled down the aisle towards the walkway. The red haired demon flashed coal black pools knowing he had been outbid. The lighting prevented Brooklyn and Castiel from seeing who the man was as he continued his way down. The light bathed him in an almost angelic glow which was ironic considering who the man was.

"Betrayer…" Castiel growled as Brooklyn quickly realized who the man was.

"Judas!" She cried out as the vampire's grin widened revealing a perfect row of white teeth.

The vampire strolled up to his newly acquired purchases sizing them up as he nodded in approval. Brooklyn felt his black eyes burning deep in her soul. She jerked her head to the side as she felt the black orbs still trained on her. Castiel could only glare as the Betrayer turned to greet the angel with a smug expression firmly planted on his ancient face.

"What's wrong, Castiel? Did you really think that you had seen the last of me in Phoenix? Did you really think you and Brooklyn didn't have to fear seeing me again? I swear you angels are so predictable it's sickening" Judas hissed. Castiel narrowed his blue orbs as they turned into dark narrow slits fixed on the vampire's raven black ones. The ancient enemies remained locked within one another's stare as Judas turned to Colin who was now standing behind his sire. Colin saw his sire was pleased with his new "purchases" and was ready to take them with him.

"I want them marked with this" Judas flashed a slip of paper to the demon as he nodded his head. "I want to make certain that everyone knows who they belong to." The vampire grinned at the angels as they were led away from the peering eyes of the crowd and in a smaller room. The confined space was hot and stuffy as the demon forced Brooklyn and Castiel on a bench. In the corner they saw a figure hunched over moving over small vials and holding something in his hand. Brooklyn could sense this being was a demon as it continued to fuss over the various vials and bottles. She felt her body tense up as she felt a presence behind them. She didn't get the opportunity to find out who it was as she felt something sharp in stab her in the neck. Brooklyn felt a numbness spreading throughout her body as she fought to stay awake feeling the powerful drug take over her until she could fight no more. Castiel watched helplessly as she succumbed to unconsciousness.

"Cas…" she said in a slurred speech as solid arms caught her and picked her up.

Her angel soon joined her in darkness and slumber…

Dean and the others remained hidden in the underbrush watching the security guards as they protected their master and his buyers from unwanted visitors. Through the night vision binoculars, Dean could see the perimeter was heavily guarded and well protected as two large guards were heavily armed. The older Winchester man fought to suppress the urge to leap out and take on the rent a goons. Tariel saw his jaw tightly clenched as he never took his eyes off the building. She knew in there somewhere was Brooklyn and Castiel and who knows how many other angels.

They were joined by another hunter who had been the godsend for the group. Callie had been watching the place for months now providing the hunters with information about the place. The Nightingale was an auction house that an Elder vampire named Colin Huntington ran, though that was not his real name. The vampire had demonic hunters that captured various beings such as angels, Wiccans and hunters selling them off to the highest bidder. The auction was by invitation only and no one knew when the auction was until they received their invitations with the date and time. Callie had been able to intercept an invitation the day before seeing that the next auction was tonight.

"What's going on, Dean?" Brady asked as Dean handed off the binoculars.

"Nothing, yet, Brady. Here take a look." Brady peered through the lens seeing the two rent a goons and a large truck. To the right were the cars and limos of the buyers. Brady deduced some of these individuals held high stature in society based on the cars he saw. As he continued scanning the area, Brady though of his best friend, wondering if she had been sold or still remained in there. He felt himself getting anxious.

"What's the plan?" Brady asked hoping someone would answer.

"We walk right in like we own the place" Dean answered flatly as he stood heading to his car.

"Hold on there, son, you can't go barging in there. If you've noticed the place is more secure than Fort Knox" Bobby warned the hunter. Dean turned in a huff as he got in his car. As he sat there, Markus got in staring at Dean. The hunter felt the older man's steel blue eyes locked on him as Dean finally turned to look at him.

"Dean, I know you still love Brooklyn and you're angry that Colin has her but barging in there will get you killed. Do you want to see someone else you love hurt?" Dean knew he was referring to Tariel. The hunter shook his head not wanting her to be put through the pain of losing him.

"I have a plan. Wait for my signal." Markus exited the car and headed in the direction of the building. Dean got out watching the hunter silently dart across the woods to the small clearing. His movements fluid and swift as he edged closer to the two demons. Upon reaching the clearing Markus fell flat pressing his body against the earth as he crawled towards the guards.

The other hunters watched as the ancient one took out each demon with one shot to the head sending them both back to Hell. Dean watched the entire drama unfold through the binoculars waiting for Markus to signal them. He saw the dark form of Markus stand making a short and swift wave of his hand as Dean and the others pushed forward. As they reached the high wall and gate, the group remained in the shadows able to observe the buyers exiting and proceeding to their cars.

"The best way to get in is around the back. The hallway will take us right up to the main area where the auctions were held" Callie said quietly as Dean nodded. Taking Tariel's small hand in his, they hurried to the back while avoiding any detection from the vampires and other beings that were still in the vicinity. The group breathed a collective sigh of relief as they reached the back only to find a hand scanner and card reader blocking their way in.

"Allow me" Callie said as she pulled out some cutters killing the power to the scanners hearing a clicking sound as she pulled the door open. Bobby grinned seeing Callie still had her touch. The group hurried inside seeing the two rows of doors. These had to be the holding cells the angels were kept in before auction time, Markus noted.

"We need to cover more ground. Three of us will look for any angels still here in the cell block and the other three head upstairs to find Brooklyn and Castiel" Markus voiced.

"We three will head upstairs" Dean said pointing at the angel and hunter as they hurried down the rows looking through the slits. Bobby, Markus and Callie headed up the stairs with weapons drawn. Markus prayed they could reach his daughter and her angel before it was too late. The older hunter took the lead as they reached the ground level. It was silent as the buyers were all but gone leaving only the slaves to clean up. A black haired woman looked up seeing the trio. Bobby put a finger to his lips in the universal sign for quiet. She smiled and nodded pointing towards the stairs leading to Colin's office. Markus nodded his head in gratitude as they sprinted up the stairs.

Colin was reviewing the sales from the auction as the door was violently kicked open. Markus held his gun pointed at the vampire's head. Colin leaned back in his chair locking his fingers behind his head. His demeanor calm and cold as Markus was joined by Bobby and Callie.

"Markus DeTaurius, what a pleasant surprise" Colin smirked as the hunter's stare was cold and deadly.

"Cut the shit, Huntington. Where are they?" He demanded. Colin shrugged his shoulders feigning ignorance.

"I don't know who you're talking about, Markus" Colin responded with his eyes wide in a mocking manner.

"You damn well know who, vampire. Brooklyn and Castiel" Bobby growled as he pulled out a silver stake. Colin's upper lip turned into a snarl as his green dead eyes rested on the weapon.

"You can kill me, hunter, but you will never know where they are" he growled jumping on his desk opening his mouth to reveal his sharp fangs sliding down from his gums. The hunters remained steadfast ready to face off against the Elder vampire.

As the the hunters squared off against Colin, the black Suburban was being loaded with its cargo. The demons quickly laid the still unconscious angels in the truck as the doors were shut and the driver hit the door signaling for it to go. Dean heard the engine and raced outside seeing the SUV speeding away. He knew who was in the vehicle.

"Brook, Cas" Dean whispered as he watched the truck vanish into the night. He ran after it in vain as the vehicle picked up speed and was racing off into the Tennessee night. The hunter dropped to his knees as the red taillights shrank until they were gone.

"Where we headed?" Malus asked as he looked back at the angels.

"Asheville, North Carolina, Malus for someone is awaiting our friends' arrival" Darius answered as he smirked to himself.
