Author's Note: I intended to make this longer, but I divided it into two parts because I'm not sure how to continue this Halloween party SO: Here's a little teaser for you!

A Day to Remember: Right Back At It Again

Halloween Party Part 1

"Jeez Sammy," Dean groaned. "Isn't this like textbook fiancé stuff I'm doing right now?" He grunted as he heaved a couple boxes of cheap bear into the trunk of the Impala. Sam dropped the reusable grocery bags, full of chips and dips with a 'thud' beside them.

He sighed heavily. "I know." He frowned. "But the Novak brothers will be in just in time for the Halloween party tonight." He shrugged and slammed the trunk shut. "Gabriel said Balthazar held them up doing work in the studio."

The brothers got into the car, and Dean swung into the driver's seat, with Sam ducking in right beside him. He started up the engine and an old AC/DC tape sprang to life blaring through the speakers. He threw the car in reverse and they left the grocery store parking lot, driving back to Sam and Gabriel's town home. Sam's phone chimed and he pulled it out of his pocket, his features brightening considerably. He reached out and turned the volume down earning a glare from Dean. "You mind if we turn on the radio station?" He held up his phone. "Just got a text from Gabriel," He shrugged. "He said turn it to the local radio station." His hand hovered over the knob. "Do you mind?"

Dean shrugged, eyes still on the road, his curiosity peaked. Sam fiddled with stations until he found the local one and listened patiently to the ads that streamed by. Dean's mind strayed as his eyes watched the empty country roads of Kansas. He drummed absentmindedly on the steering wheel as the fall colored tress whisked by the window. He wondered briefly just how long it would take them to set up this Halloween party when the MC's voice broke him away from his thoughts.

"Alright listeners! We've got a real treat for you this afternoon so listen up and listen goooood. We'll be playing this song all night long. I won't keep you waiting – here it is – four years in the making and they're back!"

Dean was practically buzzing with the announcer's excitement.

"Here is Right Back At It Again from your favorite band Perdition!"

Sam and Dean exchanged excited glances at each other, the younger practically bouncing up and down in his seat. "Dean! Dean! Dean!" He chanted excitedly cranking up the volume in the Impala as the guitar started to sound and a loud growl of – "We're coming out swinging!"

The brothers started bobbing their heads to the beat as the lead singer's voice rang out.

"Started out in the spring of 2003. Never went to school, nobody talked to me – 'cept to tell me all the things I couldn't do. Don't wanna hear about it! Got with my guys, packed into all our cars. Hit all the nearest scenes and every local bar and played a show a night 'til it made me sick!"

Gabriel hooked his arm around Castiel and pulled him forward so they were hanging through the limo's window leading to the driver's seat. "It's our song! It's our song!" He glanced back at the rest of the Novak brother's. "Shut up, shut up, shut up!" They hushed listening to Castiel's voice.

"So here I am! I'm right back at it again! Just like I've always said 'If you're too cool for school, I ain't here to make no friends.' And I'll say, 'Hey (hey), I'm right back at it again. Just like I've always said, 'If you're too cool for school, I ain't here to make no friends.'"

He wiggled out of Gabriel's grasp and they both slumped into the seats by the window with Gabriel drumming his finger's along Castiel's shoulder and the youngest Novak mouthing to the words.

"We left home with no kind of back up plan, and everyone we knew that we couldn't stand said, 'If you can't make it here you won't make it there.' Don't wanna hear about it. Spent most of our time sleeping on hard wood floors, people's living room and any open doors. We played a show a night till it all made sense."

Lucifer clasped his shoulder. "I can't believe we're back on the radio, Cassie! You did it! We're doing this." He beamed excitedly at Balthazar. "We're making an album!"

The brothers let out cheers and Balthazar sat cross legged on the seat, letting the music play in the background clasping his hands together. "So!" He stated catching everyone's attention. "Let's discuss the Halloween party tonight." The rest of the Novak brothers, sans Raphael who had chosen to stay home with his family, groaned and rolled their eyes. "Oh come on now mates-,"

Michael snorted. "You always make such a big deal over Halloween and insist that we wear ridiculous themed costumes."

Gabriel laughed. "I don't know, I like his ideas."

Lucifer furrowed his eyebrows. "Are you talking about the year that we were the power rangers?"

Castiel glared angrily. "Or the year that we were angels?"

Michael snorted. "Let's not forget that awful year that he made us dress as all the characters from Lord of the Rings."

Balthazar clutched his hands over his chest aghast. "And all those ideas were brilliant." He defended. "But I was thinking this year we could go as the Avengers!"

There was silence in the limo before a general murmur of approval. Michael nodded. "I can get on board with the Avengers."

Balthazar beamed. "Great! Our costumes have already been delivered to the flat above the diner. We can stop on the way to Gabriel's."

"Wait you already got our costumes?" The brit nodded and Lucifer continued. "Which means that you've chosen our costumes for us then?"

Balthazar smirked. "Of course I have." He rolled his eyes. "I had it all figured out too, but then I remembered that Cassie here-," He stared pointedly. "Can't go anywhere shirtless or in short sleeves because of his tattoos."

"I've told you Balthazar, everyone knows that the 'Soldier' has a full tattoo sleeve." He put down his hands from the air quotes. "They'd know it was me instantly."

His brother just rolled his eyes. "Anyway, he diverted back to their conversation. "You all will just have to wait till we get there to see your alter-egos."

"So here I am! I'm right back at it again! Just like I've always said 'If you're too cool for school, I ain't here to make no friends.' And I'll say, 'Hey (hey), I'm right back at it again. Just like I've always said, 'If you're too cool for school, I ain't here to make no friends.'"

It was the sixth time that afternoon that the Winchester brothers were listening to the latest Perdition song once Sam had found it on Spotify. Guests were trickling into the home, Dean unfortunately running into quite a lot of old friends from the area causing him to retreat into the kitchen and focus on prepping the food.

"Hey Dean-O!" He whirled around from the salsa he was currently pouring into a bowl and found Garth's lanky form standing in the doorway dressed as a lanky Luke Skywalker. He laughed when he saw Dean. "Nice costume!" He complimented. "Star Lord?"

Dean laughed and gestured to his outfit with his hands. "You like?" He nodded towards the packets of dip beside him. "Come over here Garth and help me out with these chips and dips." The skinny mechanic sauntered over and helped him out, sharing pleasant conversations about the auto shop.

Sam poked his head into the kitchen, branches and leaves tangled around him for his Groot costume. "Hey! Just finished moving around the tables and chairs in the sitting area. I'm gonna put on a playlist with something more than just Perdition."

Benny's form appeared next to Dean chopping up some vegetables for the veggie platter. "You guys fans of Perdition?" He asked after Sam disappeared into the backyard.

Dean nodded. "Yup. Have you heard your new song?"

A smug look plastered onto Benny's face and pulled out his Vampire teeth. "Hell yeah! It's incredible." He glanced at Garth and lowered his voice to make sure only the two mechanics would hear him. "Actually, Balthazar called me today." He licked his lips, soaking in their eager faces. "He said Perdition is going to do what they call a 'Revelation' circuit. He said it's named after the album."

Garth burrowed his eyebrows. "Wait their new album's called Revelation?"

Benny dumped his cut up cucumbers into one of the compartments on the tray and pulled a carrot towards him. "Yup." He started cutting them into long, thin strips. "Balthazar says the album isn't finished, but they're gonna start playing shows anyway." Garth's moth gaped open in shock and the southerner continued. "Yeah, normally a band will put out an album and then go on tour, but he says they're kind of doing both at the same time." He dumped the carrots and started on the broccoli. "They're gonna release a couple singles each month, headline a show at a venue every other weekend until the album is finished." He shrugged. "I guess the band members have really demanding careers or something like that. Anyway, once the album is finished they'll release the whole thing and go on tour."

Dean shook his head excitedly, abandoning the dip. "We gotta get tickets to those shows."

If it was possible, Benny's smug smile grew even wider and he set the knife down. "That's the thing brotha'," He bit his lip. "They've chosen my club."

There was a beat of silence before, "What?!" They snapped their heads around to find Sam's shocked expression in the doorway.

The Novak Brothers, minus Gabriel who had a car take him to his house after picking up his costume from the diner, were walking up the driveway to the engaged couple's home. "Tell me again why I had to be The Hulk." Michael whined. "This was not exactly how I pictured this." He had his arms folded over his bare green torso shielding himself from the cold. Although it was still bright out and nearly 6PM, a pleasant 70 degrees outside, Michael still found himself shivering. "I still don't understand why I couldn't wear shoes." He glanced down at his purple shants and wiggled his toes before continuing up to the house.

"You're the Hulk because you're smart and brainy, but you've also got a bit of a temper." Castiel answered for Balthazar. "And the Hulk doesn't wear shoes." He said as an afterthought.

Lucifer chuckled and tossed his plastic hammer up in the air and catching it. "I don't know why you're complaining Mike. I think Balthazar nailed it, Thor really suits me."

"I think Loki would have been better…" Castiel grumbled under his breath as he gave a futile tug to his mask. "Balthazar, is this truly necessary?"

They stopped at the doorway and the British Novak tugged at his iron man arm. He was wearing a fitted short sleeve shirt, and pants with his power symbol on his chest and one single arm containing the gold and red metal. "Well Cassie," His hand hesitated over the doorbell. "Someone has to be Mr. Mysterious all the time. You wanted to make sure your tattoos will always covered, right?" He gestured to the Captain America costume with his hand. "Covered."

Castiel picked at the spandex fabric self-consciously. "Yes, but did it have to be so…tight?" Balthazar rolled his eyes. "And the mask-,"

Lucifer snorted. "He's making you wear that to keep you hidden from all the single people at this party." He chuckled. "If they don't know that you're Castiel Novak, then Balthazar will have a chance at getting laid." Balthazar swatted at him and rang the doorbell.

A moment later the door flung open and Gabriel stood in the doorway dressed as Hawkeye. "There you guys are! I've been wondering what took you so long!"

Castiel plucked at his spandex trying to loosen it. "It took a little longer to paint Michael than we anticipated."
