Hooray for speeches ;) I hope you enjoy this chapter, feel free to review.
The man started to walk towards Sam when the smashing sound of glass could be heard, followed by a low growl. Turning round the man stared in surprise. Changing her form Celeste used her powers to release all three of them.
"Welcome my dear," the man began but Celeste silenced him by gripping what seemed to be thin air.
"Shut it," she smiled sinisterly as the man clutched his throat. "How dare you feed off of people's suppressed doubts! You ruined those couples lives, drove them to die of a broken heart and not in the metaphorical sense. You made them believe the other was unfaithful and all because your wife did that to you. Didn't she? But you were wrong. Let go, you can be reunited with her once again. Move on or I will wipe you from existence," Celeste confronted the spirit with a level of maturity that even a seasoned hunter would struggle to possess.
She released his throat and the spirit began to spin around until he vanished in a flurry of red rose petals.
"That was. Too easy," Sam spoke in shock and Celeste grinned.
"Everything's easy when you have powers such as mine. Part demon remember, doesn't take long for me to analyse a spirit. Humans are much more complicated to read. A spirit is just the shell of its former self, a small piece of hardship that person experienced during their life. So it keeps it trapped in our world. Most spirits just want to be freed. You don't always have to light 'em up," Celeste pointed out confidently as she went over to Dean and offered him her hand.
"This changes nothing," Dean snarled and Celeste sighed,
"I thought as much. Dean I will never be able to make it up to you. But I swear all I wanted was to help people. I acknowledge what I am. So I'm half demon? Who cares, I am half angel too and I know that part of me wants to help and save people. You guys inspired me and that year was one of the greatest years of my life. I'm sorry that I hurt you," Celeste choked on her own words as she began to sob and knelt down on the floor feeling utterly defeated.
Sam walked over and placed a comforting hand on her shoulder and instantly Celeste hugged him tightly.
"Sam she will manipulate you!" Castiel warned as he went to pull Celeste away from him.
However Gabriel appeared spreading his wings out wide as he said seriously,
"I don't think so, Bro."
"She isn't I am making my choice. Team Freewill remember. We need all the help we can get. That spirit could have easily killed us if she hadn't come. I mean it made quick work of Cas, we wouldn't have stood a chance Dean," Sam explained stubbornly as he kept his arms around Celeste.
"I understand that you are not thrilled by me being here but I can explain why," Celeste spoke softly as she looked at Dean with sorrowful eyes, who glared coldly back at her. She glanced at Sam, who remained indifferent, no words were needed. "I sensed that you needed my help and I thought this would earn me a second chance," Celeste lied.
Gabriel sent her a proud look. She had heard Sam's prayer and she had took off like a bullet, startling Gabriel, who had hurried after her in the process.
"A second chance my ass. And what the hell is here doing here?" Dean said angrily as he pointed a finger at Gabriel.
"I'm here to offer my services to squash the revolution, Deano. And I think you'll be making a big mistake by not letting Celeste back in to your life. She's a good kid with a good heart and if your anger makes you too blind to see that, then you're a fool. Isn't that right, kiddo?" Gabriel signalled to Celeste, who left Sam's side to join Gabriel as she wrapped one hand around his back.
"There is no revolution Gabriel," Castiel began but as he caught the warning look in his brother's eyes, who had quickly glanced down at Celeste, he stopped.
"Perhaps we should reconsider Dean. As Sam said the more people on Team Freewill the more people we will be able to save. I don't trust that thing anymore than you do. But at least if it was living with us we could keep a closer eye on it," Castiel gravelly voice echoed around the tense room.
Celeste's feathers bristled at the name 'it' but she choose to ignore it as she looked expectantly at Dean. Sighing exasperatedly Dean relented,
"Fine, whatever."
Celeste squealed with delight but as she saw the malice in Castiel's eyes and Dean's bitter expression she stopped.
"I would be honoured to become a part of Team Freewill. I won't let you down, I promise," Celeste spoke solemnly as she walked towards the door.
"You already have and you're bound to again. I must be crazy agreeing to let you come back," Dean said with venom in his voice.
Celeste allowed her tears to flow as she started to fly back to the bunker. Every beat of her wings matched the stabbing sensation she felt in her heart.
