"Tell them we got the Horcrux."
Yeah, I'm just going with the motions by now. I still have a plan for the Battle and yes, it involves a deal, Angels and maybe even a certain King. And yes, I brought someone back... Sue me. It's not going by the series or the books at this point.
Hermione.
Anna flew off pretty soon after that, fearing that there would be other angels hiding in the shadows, leaving Castiel to gather himself and recall his blade while Uriel stepped out of the shadows and look down upon his captain.
"Yes, Uriel." Castiel looked upon the Specialist angel as he sensed him, "What is it?"
Uriel came forward, "You still cover for Anna. You know that is disobedience and betrayal of the highest kind."
"She is helping the Wizarding World, Uriel." Castiel turned to face the man before him, "There is much more than the apocalypse happening in this world."
"And the Garrisons? She plans to fight before surrendering?"
Castiel wasn't sure as he turned to fly off after Anna and paused, "She will be at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Why there, I have not a clue. Nor the reasoning behind the garrisons."
Uriel frowned before he shook his head and scoffed, "You know Michael will hear about this and he will send the garrisons. Let her fight, Anna will not win and anyone who stands in His way will be turned to dust."
The dark-skinned angel left soon after, most likely to tell Michael Anna's whereabouts while Castiel flew to find Dean and Sam Winchester and gather them for travel.
Sam's phone rang as he pulled up to the motel and parked, having finished a solo case. He pulled out his phone and checked the ID, frowning as he didn't recognise the number he answered inutiously using an alias, "Hello, Agent Franklin speaking."
"Erm, is this Sam?" The voice on the other end of the line was British, young and familiar as he grabbed the food tray and frowned as it continued, "Sam Winchester?"
"I'm sorry, who is this?" Sam closed the door and looked at the ID again while putting the food on the small dingy table. Not recognising the number, he put the phone back to his ear just as the mystery person said, "Granger. We met maybe a few weeks ago when Castiel brought us to America."
His eyebrows furrowed as he tried to remember what had happened with Castiel when the voice added, "We're travelling with Anna... The angel. She gave me this number in case we ever needed help."
"Granger… Hermione?" Sam finally clocked onto who it was as he sat at the table and began to sort the files he had on the recent case, "Is something the matter? Are you all okay?"
"That's what we wanted to know. Anna left sometime last night and hasn't returned yet. We're in Scotland, waiting for her."
"She did what? Are you all okay? Have you tried praying to her?" Sam turned concerned, only for Hermione to reassure him they were all well, they were hiding out inonhe outskirts of a small village in the Scottish countryside but had ventured to find apayphone. A woman appearing in front of Sam had him looking concerned as she silently plonked herself onto the bed and sat facing him as he quickly said, "Hermione, I'm gonna have to get back to you. I got a visitor. Just stay where you are and I'll send Cas or someone over."
Hermione's protesting was cut off as the woman raised an eyebrow but stood, looking seriously at the hunter.
"Now really isn't the best time, Ruby." He started, "I've been…"
"Looking for Dean. I know. Practically everybody is." The woman finished for him, folding her arms as he nodded, "That's sorta why I'm here. I just found something out about those Horcruxes that I think you're gonna wanna hear… And it's not good news either."
"Is anything good news with you?"
Ruby just gave Sam a face as he came to sit down on the chair while she sat back on the bed and sighed before saying, "Depends on how you see it but this Dark Lord you were talking about is one nasty mother. If it weren't for the fact that he's a Half-Blood Wizard and quite powerful, he'd have been in Hell on his 26th birthday. The only trouble is, he has soul anchors in the form of these 'Horcruxes'."
Sam blinked surprised as he sat back, allowing Ruby to continue, "You know who I'm talking about, don't you?"
"All I know is that the Wizards won't speak his name… like there's a Taboo on it." Sam replied, Ruby nodding urgently and replying, "That's the one I'm talking about but there's another name, Tom Riddle. Or that's what it says on his contract."
Sam looked totally flabergasted by this news as they heard wings, looked over and her eyes, not just her iris', but the whole of her eyes went black before they retracted again as Castiel walked forward even as she stood and stepped away from the bed.
"Con… The most dangerous person in Harry's world made a demon deal?" Sam looked weirded out before he noticed the reaction and looked over as Castiel came into his field of vision. Even while Ruby nodded, she kept looking at Castiel as Sam stood and made to get in between them. Castiel was looking serious at the demon in front of him as she stood by the window, but didn't move to attack, just stood there.
"Cas, She was giving us some information about Vol-."
"I know. That is why I am here. I too have news, from Anna." Castiel looked to Sam, then Ruby who looked curious before the angel was sitting down in the exact same place and facing them all before continuing, "They have secured the Horcrux that lay within Gringotts."
Sam looked relieved. They hadn't heard anything from Anna while they'd planned to break into the bank itself so just the news from both Hermione and then Anna through Castiel had those nerves settling down.
"Anna has also requested that there be at least two garrisons sent to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I think she suspects that there will be a fight." Castiel continued, looking to Ruby who blinked, surprised before she came forward and sat on the second, more empty bed.
"I'm possibly gonna get more hate for this but Hell has been after the Dark Lord for over sixty years. We had a good shot at getting him when he tried to kill Harry Potter and then again through the years, but no such luck. His soul was too weak and it's only begun to get strong again recently." She told them, "Well, strong enough to soon be tracked by Hellhounds."
There was a glee in the demon's eyes that had both angel and hunter on edge before she stood from the bed, went back to the window, continuing with, "You better find Dean and quick. Shit's about to go down and for once, it isn't demonic."
They all looked at one another briefly before Sam was nodding and, throwing in the towel that there was nothing he could do for the moment, got up and went outside, only returning with a duffle bag full of weaponry as he looked to Castiel and asked, "Is there anyone in your garrison we can trust to go to Scotland? Hermione, Ron and Hermione are there right now, possibly about to do something stupid."
"I shall see who I can find." Castiel disappeared, just as Ruby looked to the hunter with a raised eyebrow while he threw clothes into his bag and zipped it up before looking at the woman.
"You know if there is a fight at this Hogwarts, it's likely that it'll be bloody and fast, especially since it's Tom Riddle." Ruby spoke up, Sam nodding slightly, "Best to get reinforcements, right?"
"You worry about getting me, Dean and Bobby there." Sam told her, hefting the bag on his shoulder and approaching her, "Then we'll make plans to get in."
Ruby frowned briefly but eventually sighed and nodded, "Best call Bobby and Dean."
Am I nearly done with this story? I would like to bloody know that as well!
I would like to say that I had to add a chapter with just the American side of the story, AKA Supernatural.
I do have a plan for this but I need to get my shit straight in order to do it. I'll be back soon *Goes to sort shit out*
Hermione XD
