Chapter 32
(Read and Review please. I do not own Supernatural or Twilight unfortunately.)
"So you really think Sammy sent those demons after Cass and I?"
Dean nods with contortion. Bella closes her eyes for a moment, not sure what to think about all this. Dean pinches the bride of his nose. His sister couldn't even get a break on her wedding night.
"Jesus Bells, this is your wedding night."
Bella shrugs.
"Hunters D remember?"
Dean sighs as she hands him a beer. She sips from her own and sits outside the hotel beside him.
"I've got something I rather need to come clean about as well."
"If you tell me you're pregnant…"
"JESUS CHRIST D!"
He sighs in relief.
"Don't be a schmuck!"
He chuckles and pinches the bridge of his nose.
"Sorry… what can I say long day."
"Yeah well keep it down will ya! Last thing I need is you giving my husband a heart attack!"
"Think he really would?!"
Bella pops him on the arm.
"You know how you say you're seeing Sammy?"
He nods.
"Well… I met Michael."
"Who?"
"My brother."
"Huh… really?"
"Yep."
She rather winces as she blurts it out.
"Funny thing…"
"What's that?"
"He's an angel or well sort of. It's rather baffling. He's like a vessel only not. He made it sound more like a fusion of the two."
Dean laughs shaking his head.
"More of that science fiction crap huh?"
"Sounds like it huh."
"So what's he like?"
"So you believe me? Just like that?"
"Why the hell not?" He turns with a smile towards the hotel were Cass and Jo are.
"Well let's just say he saved our asses D. He demanded that Cass put an end to Raphael, kicked him plum outta heaven. Cass dismissed his own angel status so to speak directly after he took care of business." Bella narrows her eyes in thought.
"My vessel wasn't even born yet. He was never meant to have died that day. He's within me Bella. I'm your brother." Bella mocks in his voice.
Dear rears back at this.
"So more creepy sci fi crap?!"
She nods and downs the rest of her beer.
"Jesus ever just want to kick back watch some football and pick at your belly lint even for a day?"
Bella laughs.
"Oh like all the time."
"What are the odds? We both lose our baby brothers? Talk about fucked up."
"Yeah it is. Wouldn't that be kind of crazy I mean think about it D. What if they had survived? What if we were all meant to hunt alongside of one another? Hell what if we were all meant to be siblings?"
She looks to the stars in thought.
"That's gotta be some of the saddest shit I've ever heard."
"Isn't it?" She sighs and comes to her feet.
"I'm gonna hit the hay."
"Goodnight Bells."
"Night D."
The sunlight streams across the hotel room. Bella rolls over and pulls the sheets over her and Cass. She smiled as she watches him sleep. He looked so angelic ironically enough. Bella bites her lower lip and runs a hand along his chest. Cass moves over and faces her. He reaches over running his fingers through her hair.
"Bet you never dreamed we'd be spending our wedding night, with my brother and Jo."
Cass leans over and kisses her forehead. Bella buries herself into his warm embrace wishing they were alone. Her eyes close as she breathes him in. She half laughs in frustration.
"None of that now!"
She feels a pillow hit against her back.
"D! Knock it off!"
"I don't want to hear my sister… well you know!"
"Then cover your damn ears ya virgin!"
Jo laughs.
"Dean a virgin?"
Bella sighs and throws the covers off them. She jumps up and smacks Dean in the face with her pillow. He growls out and smacks her back.
"PILLOW FIGHT!" Jo calls out and the three of them start hitting one another.
Cass rises out of bed puzzled by this behavior. Bella gets a devilish grin on her face though and turns back and hits Cass. He grabs her and swings her back onto the bed and pops her on the butt.
"Dammit Cass! Ruin for everyone! Ya damn perv lay off her!"
"He's my husband you jerk."
"Yeah well not when we're in the same room!"
"Ugh I feel so gay…" Dean mutters into the sheets.
"You are! Sorry Jo but it's true…"
"Oh I knew. I was just hoping I could convince him otherwise. I mean, he really got into the whole pillow fighting, whilst in pj's business."
"Huh, guess you're doing a suck ass job!"
Jo laughs at Bella's gibe as she heads to the bathroom.
"Is it true Dean?"
They both turn to Cass.
"Are you happy?"
Dean and Jo bust out into laughter.
"What?" Cass questions with narrowed eyes.
"Do me a favor ask my sister if she's gay when she comes out of the bathroom Cass."
Cass shrugs.
"Do you think I make her gay?"
Dean clears his throat and grows serious.
"Well Cass since you've come along… Yes she hasn't been gayer than she is at this very moment."
Jo hits him in the arm.
"What? He makes it so easy!"
Bella comes out of the bathroom and everyone turns towards her. Cass stands up and takes her hands into his own. Jo rolls her eyes at Dean.
"You're so dead…"
Dean smirks shaking his head waiting for it.
"Bella are you gay?"
She narrows her eyes and looks around the room. She sighs looking upon her brother. Bella turns back to Cass and French kisses him. Once she pulls back she squeezes one of Cass's buttcheeks.
"Extremely…"
Cass nods with a grin.
"Ah no fair!" Dean bellyaches. Bella flips him off but walks over and smacks Jo on the ass.
"Did she do something wrong?" Cass questions and Bella blushes not realizing he saw that. She was just trying to get under Dean's skin.
Bella clears her throat as she puts her jacket on.
"Um yes. Yes she did." She looks to Jo apologetically.
Jo laughs and heads to the bathroom.
Cass was focused on Bella's short black skirt as she stepped outside. Dean rolls his eyes and chunks a pillow at Cass. Cass sends it spiraling back knocking Dean off the bed.
"….bitch…."
Cass shrugs and gets dressed.
Really? This is what we're doing during our off time? Pillow fights with fallen angels?
Dean takes in a breath as he buttons his shirt.
Dean Winchester? My brother? Pillow fights? What's next Dean? Manicures?
Cass notices the look upon Dean's face.
"Is everything alright?"
Dean nods and grabs his keys. He then takes his and Jo's things to the car.
"He's not even supposed to be here!"
Dean cuts "Sammy" a look as he tosses his and Jo's things into the car.
"Leave them alone Sammy! Last night! NOT COOL! GET LOST!"
Bella peers over from her truck over hearing this.
"D?"
He rolls his eyes and sighs.
"OK there bro?"
He nods. Bella narrows her eyes though watching him.
"Maybe, I'm dealing with the wrong one."
Dean's eyes widen as he appears behind Bella. He runs his fingers through her hair.
"I haven't got to bond with our little sister yet."
Dean grits his teeth. Bella swallows back. She continues to keep her eye out as Michael had warned him. She nods towards Dean. Then acts as if she's about to get in the truck but takes her blade out. She tucks it into her sleeve.
"Counter or Clockwise." She says looking to Dean.
He looks to her confused at first, until he gathers what she's doing.
"Counter."
She nods and quickly turns stabbing her blade that direction.
"HOLY SHIT!"
Dean yells as "Sammy" falls to the ground. Bella grits her teeth crouching over him.
"There you are you bastard."
She punches him in the face as he yanks the blade from his gut. "Sammy" reverses the pin and head butts her. Cass and Jo run out of the hotel hearing Dean's gun fire.
"GET OFF HER!" Dean yells.
"Sammy" grits his teeth as the bullets hit. Bella flings out her legs and forces him off her. Both "Sammy" and Bella come to their feet. They eye each other like vultures walking in a circle.
"You're not Sammy!" Bella yells pointing at him heatedly.
"Sammy" smiles.
Cass narrows his eyes and quietly comes closer. Dean however yanks Cass behind him. Cass looks to Dean confused.
"He wants you dead Cass." Dean whispers in warning.
Cass nods but pushes past Dean that direction.
"Dammit Cass." Dean harshly whispers.
Bella drops to her knees and covers her ears. "Sammy" slowly raises his hand into the air.
"Lucifer!" Cass yells.
He turns to Cass and sends out his other hand. Cass starts to fly back and Dean breaks his fall. Cass helps Dean up and turns back towards Lucifer.
"SHE IS MY WIFE! YOU WILL STOP THIS AT ONCE!"
Lucifer laughs and Bella's plummets to the ground.
"NO!" Dean yells and hurries over.
Jo takes out her gun aiming it towards Lucifer as he comes towards Cass. Cass prepares blade in hand.
"Ah, they let you keep your precious toy. I see." Lucifer sneers eyeing the blade.
"GO HOME LUCIFER YOU'RE NOT WELCOMED HERE! YOU WERE LOCKED AWAY FOR A REASON!" Cass demands.
Lucifer has a good laugh at this as he appears before Cass. He slams his fist into his gut.
"WHO LET YOU OUT?!" Cass demands behind the pain.
Lucifer punches him again but in the face.
"STOP IT!" Jo screams and fires her gun but Lucifer send it hovering out of her hand.
Suddenly Lucifer's sent soaring back.
"WHERE IS SAMAEL?!"
Michael demands as he's got Lucifer by the collar.
"Well hello brother."
"WHERE IS HE?!" Michael slams his fist into Lucifer.
"YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE LUCIFER!"
Cass rushes over to Bella as Dean's got his shirt over her forehead.
"She's got pretty good gash." Dean observes.
Cass nods and takes over.
"What's going on?" Bella utters softly.
"I'm not quite sure Bella." Cass says with complete honesty pulling her into his chest.
Michael grits his teeth and shakes Lucifer in his hold.
"Let's just say Sammy boy's locked away somewhere safe and tightly sealed."
"AND CROWLEY?"
Lucifer laughs and simply shrugs his shoulders.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!" Michael roars and disappears with Lucifer.
Cass picks Bella up as he comes to his feet. The four of them look to one another.
"What the hell was that all about?" Dean asks gun still in hand as he scratches the back of his head.
"Seems Heaven's not the only one at war." Cass clarifies. He cups Bella's chin and continues to doctor her forehead.
"I'm ok Cass baby."
He caresses her cheek wishing he could heal her.
"Took quite a beating yourself slugger."
Bella says raising his shirt and winces at the marks on his stomach.
"They're already bruising."
Cass's eyes widen and he quickly turns and vomits. Something he's never done. He didn't like the way it felt. It made his eyes water, he couldn't breathe and his stomach knotted up.
"Whoa…" Dean says and pats Cass's back as he continues to blow chunks.
"Cass?" Bella puts her arm around his waist as he's bowed over.
"He took some hard hits." Dean comments and hands Cass a bottle of water.
"Why am I doing this?" Cass questions as he comes back up.
"You were hit in the stomach bro. Welcome to the life of a human. It sucks."
Bella beams at how Dean referred to Cass as bro. She wasn't sure if Dean even noticed he had. She didn't comment not wanting to jinx it. Jo takes Bella by the hand and leads her back into the hotel room.
"Ready for surgery?"
Bella scowls.
"Do we have any Jack?"
"Oh yeah…" Jo beams and calls to Dean.
"What babe?"
"Bring the first aid kit and Jack."
Cass enters the room with Dean. Bella peers over at Cass as Dean hands Bella the Jack.
"No turning this into water! Besides wasn't it water into wine Cass?"
He smiles.
"That was Jesus Bella. I was Castiel."
She bites her bottom lip on this but smiles.
"Right…"
Cass hands her the hotel bible as it's turned to the page.
"Oh I believe you." But she reads it anyhow, grasping just how long it had been since she'd even touched the bible. Yet here she was married to Cass. She felt rather erroneous about that.
2 On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus' mother was there, Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. 3 When the wine was gone, Jesus's mother said to him, "They have no more wine."
4 "Woman, why do you involve me?" Jesus replied. "My hour has not yet come."
Bella rather giggles at the woman part realizing nowadays that's considered degrading. She takes a swig of the Jack and turns her attention back to what she's reading as Jo stitches her up.
5 His mother said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you."
6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.
7 Jesus said to the servants, "Fill the jars with water"; so they filled them to the brim.
8 Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet."
They did so, 9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10 and said, "Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now."
11 What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
Bella smiles on the last part and looks to Cass, recognizing that's what he'd done with his wings. The day he stood before them. She grinds her teeth together though as the needle goes through her scalp. She closes the bible placing it down on the table beside her.
She turns her eyes towards Cass keeping still for Jo.
"Cass?"
He locks eyes with her.
"Is Sam Winchester an angel?"
Cass narrows his eyes.
"I've not met him. But I've not met Samael as well."
She nods.
"So they're the same person?"
"I believe so as to the way Michael referred to both."
Cass clears his throat and sits at the chair taking Bella's hand. Jo continues to stitch her up. Dean leans back against the wall his arms folded about his chest. Curiously he listens as Cass talks.
"Samael is of Heaven but he's a guardian of Hell. He's what keeps control of what goes in and out the gates. Samael is said to be the angel of death and one of Heaven's greatest warriors, to be able to keep order of Hell. You have to be one of the unsurpassed."
Cass looks to be in thought.
"It is very conceivable that your brother is this angel. If so that would mean that even in death, both Michael and Samael were meant to serve the Lord; whether as hunters on earth or angels in Heaven."
"So let me get this straight. My brother who died as an infant was given the responsibility to guard Hell?"
"It is possible. The Lord must've seen something within him. That would require the utmost in trust. This is not a task taken lightly."
"So even though he's an angel of God he's still doomed to reside along the gates of Hell?"
Cass nods.
"You should be honored he is your brother. He must be a prodigious warrior."
Dean shakes his head on this.
"Jesus."
"He is honored as well I assure."
Dean rolls his eyes on this.
"So Bella and I lose our baby brothers. They become angels of God. Bella and I serve as hunters?"
Cass nods.
"I do not believe that was the original plan. Michael wasn't meant to die. It is highly feasible that Sam wasn't meant to as well. This was a personal hit, one towards the Lord himself. I have a feeling we had a betrayer amongst our own. Considering how Heaven has been lately I wouldn't put it past the possibilities. Heaven isn't quite what it used to be." Cass says lamentably.
"As to my decision to join you both instead, there is more pride to walk amongst the both of you."
As he says this Dean feels the guilt weighing on him. Here was giving them praise and he'd done nothing but give Cass hell.
"So why was Satan pretending to be Sammy?"
Cass sighs.
"It's what he does. Lucifer has many tricks up his sleeves. He will do whatever it takes to lure you his way. He cannot be trusted."
"How did you know it was him?"
"I recognized the power the moment I saw it, that and his mannerisms. He is my brother after all. Lucifer was an angel of God before he was cast away. He was the first of fallen angels."
"He called you a fallen angel."
Cass looks to Dean but shakes his head.
"I did not fall. I made a choice there is a difference. I didn't lose my grace. It's still within me. I can still feel it. I simply ripped away the wings to put it in human principles. Therefore, he is inaccurate."
Jo bites down on the thread with her teeth. She yanks at it as it breaks off and she finishes up.
"Thank you." Cass says placing a hand on Jo's shoulder.
"It was no problem." She winks at Bella.
Bella blinks a few times feeling a bit of faint.
"Hey now none of that." Jo reaches over grabbing her steady.
"Ugh!" Bella groans.
"Fucking angels." She quickly covers her mouth however and looks to Cass apologetic.
He just smiles.
"Sorry…"
"I'm human." He says with a shrug and helps her off the table.
They turn to Dean as his cell goes off.
"Dean speaking."
"Um yeah we're a bit behind but on our way."
"Oh you know angels and demons that's all."
He looks to his sister.
"Better make that two instead Bobby."
He hangs up the phone and paces a bit.
"We better hit the road. Sorry Bells but the body count seems to be stacking up."
She nods. Cass and Dean finish loading up.
"Some honeymoon huh?" Jo states.
Bella softly laughs.
"Yep."
Cass noticed the hint of sadness in Bella's eyes as she says this. He takes the keys from her hands.
"Allow me..."
