The song here is "Swimming Home" by Evanescence
Swimming Home
It had been about an hour before Anne came back out with something that could work. She had a meditation spell that focused on pulling energies from the Earth to heal wounds. Most of those on the internet that used it have said they felt more "pieced together" after dramatic events that left them feeling torn apart.
Anne was willing to give it a shot and asked Gadreel to fetch her nine large white candles and place them in a circle. Once that was done she got Sam and Dean to gently escort Adam to the circle and softly let him down to sit in front of her. Gadreel had to help Anne to sit on the floor, then he and Viviane lit all the candles.
"Why nine?" Sam asked her and she closed her eyes, ready to start.
"We mostly end our spells by saying 'By the powers of three times three; as I will it so mote it be.'" She spoke softly, as if entering a trance. "Nine is three times three; it adds more power." she added as if she was in a rush and they were interrupting her.
Crowley and Nikolai sat at the far table, watching them as Clara lay on the table asleep. After a while, she got to be heavy and it was clear they weren't going anywhere just yet. If Clara woke up in Hell and didn't know how things went after she blacked out, she'd be pissed.
"I'm so bored." Nikolai whispered and Crowley gave a low grunt.
"No one asked that you stay." He said and Nikolai sighed.
"I'm waiting to kill your mother." He said and Crowley grunted again.
"You and me both." He replied and they watched Anne in silence again, looking as bored as they felt.
Anne sat in the circle with Adam; everything was silent and still as if nothing was happening. It had been that way for nearly five minutes, until the flames on the candles flickered and then burned brightly without moving. They stayed up straight and still, which was highly unusual. They all glanced at Anne and her facial expression remained calm, but when she began to give off a faint glow moments later, they knew the spell was working.
Her faint glow seemed to reflect on Adam, until five minutes later, he seemed to have a glow of his own. Everyone watched attentively, having never seen something like this. Even Nikolai and Crowley seemed intrigued by it. Then, the glow emanating from Anne grew brighter and it was shortly the same with Adam.
Castiel silently approached and watched with his head titled. This was a mixture of a Wiccan spell and the healing angelic powers that were strangely powerful. Jane hadn't been that powerful and it made Castiel question what he knew about hybrids. Perhaps the only time more information would be gathered is when there are more of them, which might not occur beyond Keara and this baby yet to be born.
However, Adam was receiving the care he needed; the care Castiel couldn't provide. Just when he was needed, he proved to be useless… again. Was there anything he could do right?
The spell continued for ten more minutes and when the glow began to fade from Anne and then from Adam, the flames of the candles then flickered and began to move naturally. Anne and Adam opened their eyes simultaneously and stared at each other with warm smiles slowly spreading on their faces.
"Adam?" Sam asked. His youngest brother slowly glanced over at him and his smile grew as he stood up.
"Hey Sam." He said and left the circle, hugging him as if there was nothing that bothered him. Sam held his little brother tightly for a moment longer and then released him so Dean could give him a brief hug.
Gadreel helped Anne stand up and walk out of the circle to sit in a chair. She seemed relaxed and happy.
"Thanks, honey." She said and watched as he cautiously lifted up the candles and blew them out to then place them on the table next to her.
"How are you feeling?" he asked her and she smiled up at him.
"Fine." She said as her mother sat next to her, holding her hand. "It was amazing." She said and as amazing as the experience had been, she didn't release any details. Gadreel gathered it was because she wanted to process it first, but then he noticed a hint of worry slowly cross over her face.
"Anne?" he asked and then she looked up at him, the worry seeping in.
"Gadreel, I think the baby is coming." She said and Viviane gave a light chuckle.
"Anne, dear, your water didn't break, so you're fine." She said and at that moment, Anne felt uneasy and looked down just in time to see her water breaking, dripping on the floor.
"You were saying?" she asked so calmly. Gadreel's eyes widened and he quickly set into motion, helping Anne up on her feet and escorting her to their room where they had everything prepared. Viviane followed them and the brothers did as well, but remained in the corridor in case Gadreel needed their help.
Nikolai and Crowley remained at the far table, still as bored as ever, except they weren't completely alone; Castiel stood there looking around hopelessly. It was quite a pathetic sight.
"Well, this would be a good moment for Clara to wake up." Nikolai said and Crowley grunted as he glanced over at his Knight.
"Dare to wake her?" he asked and Nikolai shook his head.
"No way." He replied and they returned to sitting quietly in boredom, once in a while glancing at Clara.
At that moment, Castiel vanished without saying a word. The demons couldn't have been bothered to care and stared at Clara as she slept.
"That hole needs to be fixed when we get back." Nikolai said and Crowley nodded in agreement. Clara had tossed Nikolai against the wall with such force that he went right through it. She knew he was fighting Rowena's spell and she didn't want to kill such a valuable friend. She would have tossed him through several walls before killing him.
"And the office needs to be cleaned." Crowley added. The destruction of Rowena's spell left the office in such a mess, it would take weeks to organize all the contracts and documents. They both agreed, but glanced at each other as if thinking the same thing.
"I nominate Nerilla and Kelley." He added and Crowley nodded his head, remembering how they were complaining of work.
"Sounds good." Crowley said as he stroked Clara's cheek. "Then they can go on a small vacation." He added and Nikolai grunted.
"Crowley, we all need vacations." He said as he arched an eyebrow at the King of Hell. They had been through so much and some time away from Hell would be much deserved. As he looked at Crowley, Nikolai could see that he was considering it.
"I think Clara might like to go to Paris again." he said as he glanced down at her. "Perhaps a family vacation." He added with a slight smile. "Do you think Keara would like to go to DisneyWorld?" he asked and Nikolai stared at Crowley in surprise.
"She's a little girl. I'm guessing Hell yeah." Nikolai said, but then had a small hint of disappointment in his eyes. "But she'll be mad to find out that I never told her about Disney's 'Frozen'." He added and Crowley glanced at him with a slight grin.
"You cannot put off the inevitable." Crowley replied, his grin growing as he imagined his daughter singing the 'Frozen' soundtrack, causing Nikolai to go mad. It would be a wonderful family vacation.
