A/N: This is not a long chapter, It's actually really short. I am not happy with this chapter. This was actually the beginning of a longer chapter but this was all I could write. I am so sorry. There is some very important news in the author's note at the end. So make sure you guys read it.

To Ladyshine6, I'm sorry for not sending you a sneak peak. I just couldn't write out the full chapter.

Disclaimer: I do not own Supernatural

Sam and Dean felt disoriented when they were zapped back over to the cabin. They were standing in the middle of the main room, Jake, Alex and Bobby were all staring at them, seeing Natalie, unconscious, in Sam's arms. It took Alex asking if Natalie was alright to snap Sam and Dean back to reality. Of course, they replied with the fact that she was, however they couldn't answer the question as to what exactly happened to her. That would have to wait until Natalie woke up, which could be days from now.

Sam wasn't in the best mood to continue on with the discussion. He simply dismissed himself and carried Natalie into the bedroom that they have shared together since arriving at the cabin. Leaving Dean with the others, forcing him to give a half detailed explanation of what went down. Sam and Dean had no idea what went on in the building, the only thing that they were told was that Caden and Sarah made a deal, now Natalie wouldn't be bothered by the angels. At least, that's what Dean was hoping for. Natalie was out of there and back at the cabin, he was relieved about that. However, he couldn't shake off the curiosity that settled in his mind the minute this whole thing started. Caden and Sarah had been acting a little off. More than usual.

Over the course of growing up and being trained as a hunter, Dean had obtained the skill of being able to read people. Sometimes he doesn't do the best job, but he is able to notice when something isn't right with a particular person. He's done it with Sam, Bobby and Natalie as well. So, it is no surprise that his red flags were starting to go off when he noticed how Sarah and Caden were reacting to the whole situation. There was something that they were not telling him or Sam. Not to mention the fact that Sam spoke with Dean about the strange conversation Natalie had with Caden before she left for Oregon. Something was clearly on Caden's mind and he didn't have the stomach to actually come forward with the information. Did this information have to do with Natalie being taken? Dean wasn't sure on that part, but he had a sneaking suspicion that it was all connected somehow.

The only problem, of course, Dean had no idea what Caden was holding back from them. It had to be very important for him to be keeping it from them and eventually backing out from telling Natalie. Dean was confused about how he felt about all of that. Was he angry? He didn't really think so. Was he surprised? Not really. Dean has already had experiences where angels kept information from him, that was something he was used to. But, like everything else, Dean knew that he was going to be reading too much into it. There was already enough going on that had to deal with Natalie. They were still confused about Death's warning, now Caden was keeping something from them and she was kidnapped by the angels. Something was going on. There was no question about it. The only thing that was left was to find out what exactly it was all about.

However, Dean could care less about that in the moment. They were back at the cabin; Natalie was with them. Everything was fine. Dean decided to sit down with Jake, Alex and Bobby, to discuss with them everything that he knew, which was very little. He and Sam were forced to stay out of the building while Caden and Sarah went in to find Natalie. But, he did express his suspicions with them. Bobby and Jake were more worried about it than Alex was. Of course, she was the outsider in this conversation. More than half of what they were going on about was complete gibberish to her, this ultimately forced Dean to explain several things to her, in order for her to gain a better understanding.

But, Dean did bring up a point about the fact that Alex shouldn't even be in the conversation. In fact, Alex should not even be here at the cabin anymore. Dean offered to take her home, to which she refused. Alex stated that she was going to wait until Natalie woke up, that way, the two of them could talk before she left. Alex thought it would be a bitch move if she just got up and left while Natalie was still unconscious. Plus, there was a part of Alex that felt guilty for letting the angels take Natalie. There was nothing she could have done. Dean had to remind her that constantly while they were sitting at the table. She knew it was the truth, but she couldn't help herself. Alex and Natalie were the same in that sense.

While the conversation was going on in the main room, Sam had locked himself away in the bedroom with Natalie. He had placed her on the bed, gently and removed her boots and jacket, putting them to the side. Sam took notice at the darkening bruising that were located around her wrists. Gently taking her hand, Sam sat down on the edge of the bed and pulled her arm up so he could inspect them more. Sure enough, he could see the bruising. His expression hardened but he gently brushed his thumb over the sensitive skin before setting her arm back down.

The dried blood on her mouth caught his attention next. He quickly went into the kitchen, ignoring the eyes that were looking at him, to get a wet rag. Once he obtained what he needed, he quickly retreated back into the room, not saying a word to the others. He went quickly, wiping the blood on and around her mouth. Sam was able to get a quick look inside her mouth, seeing there was still more dried blood but he knew that sticking a wet rag in there would be really weird. He would just have to let Natalie clean out her mouth when she wakes up and he has no idea when that is going to be.

Sitting in silence, Sam finally allowed himself to think through this entire event. The initial anger at the angels for taking Natalie in the first place was still present. However, right behind that, there was the questioning that had been occurring since Dean mentioned to Sam about how Caden and Sarah were acting. Sam, at first, didn't pay too much attention to it. He just wanted to get Natalie back and make sure that she was safe. Now that had been done, there was time for him to really start thinking things through. Caden had already seemed off before any of this went down. Natalie had told Sam that Caden tried to tell her something that he was acting weird. But, Sam couldn't help but notice how Caden's behavior and Natalie's kidnapping seemed to be correlated. He wasn't sure exactly how, but it was too much of a coincidence for him to just brush it off.

That led him to guessing what it was that Caden was so desperate to tell Natalie but opted out of it. It was important, that much was a given. But, Natalie never gave Sam the specifics about what was actually said during that conversation. Sam assumed that he would have to wait until Natalie woke up and then the questioning began. But, as he sat there, looking at her, he didn't want to have to question her about Caden or any of the angels. Surely, she was put through enough, thanks to Daniel, to immediately bombard her with questions about something that she would definitely be too sensitive about, made Sam rethink that particular strategy. Whenever Natalie woke up, they would have to give her time. Sam understood Natalie and knew that if she were to be attacked with all of that questioning, it would probably drive her insane.

All of that would be confronted when the time came. For now, Sam was content to just sitting there next to her, watching her sleep. Whenever he would do this, he couldn't help but constantly feel like he was being weird. He's done it before. The following days after they arrived at the cabin, when he couldn't fall asleep as easily, he would simply watch Natalie. Hearing her soft breathing that coincided with her chest rising and lowering, it brought a form of peace to him. Especially with the hell he has been going through with Lucifer taunting him, having Natalie by his side offered a sense of security and realism for Sam. That thought is what helps him finally drift to sleep at night. Knowing that she was there, next to him, it's all he needs to keep himself grounded. God only knows what Sam would do if he ever lost her.

Okay. So, this is something that I never thought would happen while writing this story, but unfortunately it has come to this. You all may notice that it has been taking me a lot longer to get new chapters out. And in the previous chapter, I gave you all an explanation as to why I believe was the reasoning. However, since I posted that chapter, I have been thinking a lot about the series and where I am mentally with writing it. Thus, I have decided to put this whole series on hiatus. Now, before you all get mad, please allow me to explain.

I have been writing this series for over two years. Two years I have spent, using all of my free time and energy to write this story out. I did it because the idea was so tempting and the itch to write it out was too much. So I did. And I don't regret it one bit. But, I would literally spend every single day drafting out the chapters, hardly doing anything else. But, I loved writing my stories, don't get me wrong, I absolutely love it. Then, we got to This Broken Gospel and that is where I started to notice that my drive to write out this story was slowly starting to burn out. I was confused by this and I eventually spoke with a friend of mine, who has been writing longer than I have and I asked her what was wrong with me? And she told me that there was nothing wrong with me, it was just the fact that I was driving myself into the ground. She told me that usually, when someone gets focused on writing a particular story out and that's all they can think about, usually you start to lose interest in it at a fast rate.

Now. I will say that I was in complete denial after she told me that. I didn't want to think that I was losing the drive to write out this story. But, slowly I came to my senses. My muse and motivation was in low supply. After posting the previous chapter, I opened up a new document to start on chapter 11 and I literally could not write it. Writing chapter 10 was very hard for me because I literally had to force myself to write it out. The fact that I would have to force myself and push myself that hard, just to start writing a chapter is the biggest red flag. I shouldn't have to struggle that much to write a chapter. Especially when I compare it to my writing rate for the previous stories, it's very disheartening when I saw how long it was taking for me to write out chapters.

So, what does this all mean? It means that this story will be on hiatus for an indefinite amount of time. Because my muse for this story has dropped, ideas for other stories have started to spur up. So that means that I will be working on a brand new fanfic. It is a Star Wars fanfic, based on The Force Awakens and I am bringing my own oc into the story. This particular idea is very prominent right now and I need to write it out.

Now, I don't want you guys to think that I am completely abandoning this story, I'm not. In fact, my hope is that while writing out my star wars fic, it will allow me time to gather my thoughts about my spn series and hopefully, refuel my muse to start writing it again.

Also, I just want to say thank you, to each and every one of you for reading these stories. I wouldn't have gotten this far if it wasn't for you guys and I wish there was more I could do to show my appreciation. And I feel like complete crap for putting this story on hiatus. But, I know that if I have to continue to push and force myself to write these chapters, I will lose all of my interest entirely. I need some time away from this series so that I can collect my ideas and thoughts and come back stronger than ever.

If you are a fan of star wars, I do hope you will check out my story when I publish it. Again, I AM NOT ABANDONING THIS STORY FOR GOOD. I will come back and pick up where I left off. I am just not sure when that will be. I am not going anywhere, I will be writing this new fanfic, so I will be active on here.

Thank you so much you guys. And I hope that I didn't disappoint you too much. And if you guys ever want to talk about Nad or this series, just pm me or head over to tumblr. This story is still my baby and I will never get tired of talking about it.

Thank you,

Emilia Christine.
