So I was so wrapped up with the boys, I left a few things dangling and wanted to add a short chapter to tie up some loose ends. Sorry for that readers, the previous chapter was harder to write than any I have written.

"Welcome home my wayward sons, your time is over, you have done good. You can come home now." a soft, gently, male voice said as a door appeared in a wall in front of them. It slowly began to open letting a warm, peaceful glow wash over them filling them with peace, happiness and love. Without hesitation, they walked thru the door.

Jodie waited twenty-four hours and didn't hear from the brothers. She had a friend take her to the location and found the Impala sitting in the sun shining in all her glory. Jodie ran a hand over the top of the car as she lets the tears fall.

The End.

Epilogue

Castiel and Gadreel raced to main room to find total turmoil. They found Metatron dead with an angel blade and the first blade in his body. Castiel ran to the brother's bodies and felt for a pulse. With a touch, he could feel their souls had left their bodies. He hung his head and for the first time he shed tears for his brothers in arms.

Gadreel stood to the side allowing him the privacy he needed. "We can bring them back?"

"No, this was how it was meant to be. I can feel Him near." Castiel said standing up. "Taking my grace back has broken the spell and now our brothers and sisters can come home. Gadreel can you lead the lost ones home?"

"It would be an honor. I am humbled by your request." Gadreel bowed and headed back to earth to start the task of guiding his family home.

Castiel followed the Winchester souls to Heaven.

Dean and Sam followed the light thru the door blinking quickly at the brightness. Two figures walked toward them as the glow surrounded them. Both brothers squinted trying to make out who they were.

"Mom, Dad." Dean said quietly as their forms became clearer.

"Mom and Dad?" Sam questioned his brother and then he saw them more clearly.

"Boys." John smiled stopping in front of them.

"My boys." Mary cried softly as she held her arms out to embrace them. Both boys fell into her embrace as their father wrapped his arms around his family. "There's someone else here to see you." Mary spoke to Sam.

Sam looked up and saw a blonde girl walking toward him. "Jess. Jessica." he cried running to her and twirling her in a tight embrace. She cried happily kissing him several times not ever wanting to let go.

"What did you idjits do this time?" Bobby asked slapping Dean on the back.

"Bobby. Good to see you again." Dean said.

"Got here a sooner than I expected you."

"Well, we can only save the world so many times and live thru it." Dean shrugged.

"Dean." a gravely voice said from behind him.

He turned and saw Castiel standing behind him. "Cas! You got your grace back?"

"Yes Dean, I a sorry I did not get to you in time to save you." he said sadly.

"Cas, it's ok, I think it was our time, we were both ready and it was only right that we died together as brothers." Dean told him laying a hand on his arm. "Look, we're with our family again. Sam has Jess, we'll be ok."

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Just be sure Jodie got my baby, I know she'll take care of her."

"I can do that."

"So what's your plan now?" Dean asked.

"I don't know, there are a lot of my brothers and sisters that need to be lead home or God may want me to do something else."

"Will you visit?"

"If you like, I can go between planes."

"Cas, you're family, of course we want to see you." Dean said slapping him on the back.

"Cas!" Sam smiled leading Jess over to the group.

"Sam, I'm sorry I was not there for you…"

"Don't Cas, it's fine, how many times have we escaped death? Like Dean said, it was our time, we're ok with it."

"I will see you again." he said as both brothers gave him a hug. He stood there and watched the boys walk away with their family, his family now. It was good, the boys are home where they belong.
