"Are you sure you want to do this? There's no turning back after this, and there will be a lot of stuff after your ass after this." Dean asks, just to be sure.
"How many times do I have to tell you? Yes. I want to do this, and it's all planned anyways." Melody answers, almost laughing.
"Go change then, Cas will help you and me, Sam and Adam will go to the church." Dean says, leaving her. Melody smiles and jumps. She walks over to her and Sam's wardrobe, looking at her white dress. She puts it on, walking out of their room to find Cas. She can barley walk without tripping over. She finds him at his favorite spot in the library. He looks up at her.
"You look very beautiful, Melody." He says and smiles a little bit.
"Thanks." She smiles back. He stands up.
"How about you sitting down? It'll be a lot easier then."
Melody sits down, and Cas gets some stuff to her hair.
"You remind me a little bit of an angel I knew before, Anna, when she was wearing dresses on holidays in Heaven. Maybe I should do your hair the same way I did hers, it's the same length." He does her hair while telling her stories of his life in Heaven, and she listens with great interest. When he's done, they zap to the church. Cas is the one who's going to walk her in, so they wait until the bell starts ringing. She sees a lot of faces smiling at her, most of them she's never met, but Sam and Dean have showed her pictures of them. She recognizes Garth, Krissy, Becky, Charlie and Jody Mills. Soon she stands before Sam and the priest. When the priest starts talking, the doors swing open, and two men walks in.
"What is this? Are you getting married Sam, and you didn't invite us? How rude." One of them says. Melody reaches for the gung she's hidden underneath the skirt of the dress. Sam slowly shakes his head at her.
"Gabriel? Balthazar? Aren't you two dead?" Dean asks.
"Well… we've both faked out deaths before, and we thought it was time to disappear. But continue now, please. We didn't want to disturb." The other one says and they sit down. The priest continues. The ceremony is over quicker than Melody expected, and soon she kisses Sam. They're interrupted by the priest falling on them, dead and bleeding. They both jump, and see a pale woman in a wedding dress and a bloody knife. She disappears right in front of their eyes.
"A ghost! A freaking ghost on my brother's wedding. Son of a bitch!" Dean says angrily. Then he looks at the two just revived angels.
"You showed up here right now for a reason. Do you know something? I trust Balthazar more, so you shut up, Gabriel." The angel Gabriel looks offended, but Balthazar starts talking.
"Well… that's the spirit of a woman that got married in this church, but right after her wedding, she got to know that her husband was gay, and cheating with the priest. She killed them both, then killed herself, and now she's killing every priest and pair at weddings here, both husband and wife. And she won't rest until they're killed. She'll be back." He says simply. Sam sighs.
"Great. A vengeful spirit. Where's her grave?" he asks. Gabriel starts talking this time.
"Well… that's kind of the problem. She was cremated. But there's probably some blood on her wedding dress. But it's gone." Both Sam and Dean sigh. Melody takes the command.
"Okay then. We should all get armed, and then we need to do some research. How about we all eat now, we need some energy for later. Then two or three goes back to the bunker and the rest stays here, keeping an eye on the spirit. And then we go for the dress and light it up. Does that sound good?" they all nod. Gabriel looks almost impressed.
"Seems like you've gotten yourself one hell of a woman. Congratulations." Sam nods. They all go to eat, looking out for the spirit. When they're all finished, Melody starts talking again.
"Charlie, Balthazar and Jody can go to the bunker to do research. Charlie because you are a great hacker and good with computers, Balthazar because you know a little bit about this and Jody because you never know when you might need a cop. Okay?" they nod, and then Balthazar zap away, taking them with him. When they're gone, she turns to Cas.
"Sorry Cas, but this might be necessary." Then she sets her hair free, just to collect it all and braid it. Cas nods. They're quiet for a long while, then Becky sees the spirit, and Dean shoots it with some salt and then it's gone for a while again. The next time she appears, it is with the knife at Melody's back. She feels her blood slowly making a trail down her back and dress. She carefully grabs her iron knife and stabs the spirit and it disappears. She takes a napkin from the table and puts it over her little wound to stop the blood. They wait for hours and get rid of the spirit temporary every time appears. Soon they all have smaller wounds from her knife. After about five hours Dean gets a call.
"Any luck?" he asks.
"Okay, good. You can zap yourself and the other two over there and set fire to that damn dress, the spirit is getting annoying!" he says, and hangs up. After almost one hour Balthazar, Charlie and Jody appear again.
"That dress was gone very fast. Anyone fancy a drink?" Balthazar says, somehow getting them all a glass of something out of the thin air. They start drinking a little, then Jody starts with giving Sam and Melody her wedding gift, and soon the others have too.
"Ah, yes. Wedding gifts. What should we get them, Balty?" Gabriel says, and Balthazar whispers something in his ear.
"Yes. That will do. Give me a moment." Then the archangel is gone. Dean looks surprised.
"Well, this will be interesting if the archangel need to go somewhere to get whatever it is." Balthazar nod.
"Yep. I can tell you that it'll be really good, even better than your own island or something. Whatever rich guys get." Dean nods approving. Soon Gabriel walks through the door again.
"I'm back! I hoped you missed me. And I've got some guests!" and behind him, there's one woman, and a younger woman, who looks like a teenager, but a little bit older, and one guy. Sam and Dean look like they are going to pass out. They run towards the three people and hug them.
"Ellen! Jo! Ash! Oh God we've missed you!" Sam he shouts. The older woman laughs.
"Take it easy, boys! We've just been brought back from the dead!"
Sam and Dean look at the angels, really thankfully.
"Okay, so before you start asking why not Pam and Bobby too, I'll just say that they are much happier in Heaven. Pam can see, which she wouldn't be able to do if we brought her back, and Bobby is back with his wife again. But they told me to send you their love and they're really glad you've found someone Sam, and that you've got one more person to trust too, Dean." Gabriel says, smiling. That's it for Sam. He starts crying, but Melody can't tell if he's sad, happy or both. And Dean's eyes are teary, but he keeps it together. Melody hugs Sam, and the blonde, young woman suddenly looks around to check their surroundings.
"Can someone tell us what's happened since we died?" she asks. Dean nods.
"Well… it's been a lot, but we stopped the Apocalypse, Sam lost his soul but we got it back, and then the angels have been causing trouble. And this is Melody. We met her when we hunted a wendigo that killed her family, and she joined us, got Adam out of Hell and now she and Sam are married." Dean finishes, and Sam is keeping it together now. They all go back to the bunker to talk and have fun. And they really are. Not even Gabriel or Balthazar are leaving.
