Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Epilouge “So let me get this straight. Sam was stupid enough to go BACK to the convent where you mooks released Lucifer? Just how DUMB are you?” Gabriel yelled at Castiel, Sam and Dean on the bed while the other three were in the other room feeling really…confused.
None of the three responded to Gabriel who let out a snarl and punched a hole in the wall.
Gabriel! Richard said rather suddenly prompting a snarl from the angel.
“What?” Gabriel snapped aloud both mentally and out loud, everyone flinching at his tone.
Um…If YOU could use me as your vessel…couldn’t Lucifer use Mark as a vessel too? Richard asked and Gabriel paled and looked between the two groups.
“SHIT! You’re right Richard…okay. Misfits and oddballs, DON’T Kill each other! I have a vessel to go talk to!” Gabriel said in a panic as he pulled out Richard’s cell phone and vanished with a flutter of feathers before the six could say anything else.
“Hey it’s Mark, I’m either asleep or have my cell turned off. Please leave a message at the tone.” Came the voicemail of Mark’s cell phone and Richard now desperately tried his friend’s home phone and Mark picked up.
“Hello?” Came Mark’s sleepy voice as Richard let out a sigh of relief.
“Oh thank God, you’re up,” He breathes and he swears he can feel the eyeroll from Mark.
“No, I was asleep. You woke me up. So what is it you needed to call me at…oh wow It’s only 5 PM…Why the hell was I asleep?” Mark muttered.
“Look Mark I’m right outside your apartment, I need to talk to you, it’s urgent,” Richard said, knowing the panic bled into his voice and he looked up to the door .
“Alright, you’re an antsy one Richard,” He muttered tiredly and there was the dialtone and soon the door was being open. Mark was standing there in a rumpled t-shirt and loose pajama bottoms and he looks at Richard with confusion then blinks at the bloody shirt Richard wore.
“Uh…Richard?” He points to Richard’s shoulder where the wound had been.
“Oh! Uh…I just came from the set, don’t worry…now can I come in?” Richard asked and Mark shrugged and Richard went into a well furnished three room apartment. He heard the click of the locks behind him and he looks to Mark again and Gabriel’s eyeing him too.
“Um…I know I’m going to sound really really crazy right now…so just bear with me for a moment and remember I am NOT crazy, okay? What I’m going to say is all very real,” Richard said as he nervously sat down on the couch and Mark sat next to him agreeing to hear him out.
“Okay so…you know the whole Lucifer using Nick as a vessel and being trapped in the cage stuff from the show?” He said, anxiously twisting his coat around his fingers and he saw Mark nod silently.
“Well um…I have three very real people claiming to be Sam, Dean and Castiel in Misha’s trailer, WITH Misha, Jared and Jensen in there…” He saw Mark very visibly blink but he didn’t say anything for a moment.
“And um….they said they accidently opened the cage back where their dimension or reality or whatever the fuck it is, is at and Lucifer got free….and um…I think Lucifer’s coming for you,” He says, finishing off lamely.
Mark just shook his head laughing and he got up, patting Richard’s shoulder. Mark went over to the kitchen and filled up two glasses of water and brought them back to Richard.
“Okay so…say what you’re saying isn’t completely out there, I haven’t been harassed by anything, I haven’t even had any wacky dreams like Nick did.
“Though remember it started off with weird things, the gate opening and closing randomly, the baby monitor going off, the blood from the crib and the covers. He scared the shit out of Nick first,” Richard pointed out and Mark started to chuckle when he frowned.
“Well…my lights have been flickering since...an hour and a half ago? I’m not sure how long I was out for…” Mark says as he takes a long drink of his water and Gabriel takes control quietly to check something out. Apparently only angels could see the wings of their brothers when in a vessel. He didn’t see any wings on Mark, not yet…But he could feel a humming of energy in the room that wasn’t his or Mark’s and his eyes widened when he could tell it was Lucifer, watching them.
“We…we have to get going,” Richard said, his voice had gone strangely calm even though he was feeling panic gnaw at his stomach. Mark shrugged as he took the glass of water and downed it’s contents.
“Pack for a few days!” Richard said after he downed his own water and tried not to look at where he knew Lucifer was and he waited until Mark came out with a suitcase and backpack full of stuff.
“How are we-“ He started to say when Richard leapt up as Mark seemed to get overcome by a wave of dizziness and Richard glared at where Lucifer was before he went up to Mark, grabbed his arm, branded his ribs and vanished all at once.
Next thing he knows they’re in the trailer again. And there’s six voices yelling two different things.
“Lucifer!”
“Mark!”
Mark blinks, looking disoriented and Gabriel snaps his fingers and freezes Sam, Dean and Cas, knowing they were about ready to attack.
“Back off you three!” Richard growls at Sam, Dean and Castiel, who notice that Mark looks confused, and maybe even close to freaking out at seeing doubles of everyone but Richard.
“So…you weren’t screwing with me…” Mark muttered and Richard steered him over to sit down on the couch as Misha ran and got a glass of water and handed it to Mark who said his thanks and drained it.
“Wait…how did you get me over here? You’re one of them aren’t you? You’ve got Gabriel in you, don’t you?” Mark asked, looking at Richard who gave a non-committal shrug.
“For three months now, but he doesn’t really interfere too much…But we had to get you out of there. Lucifer was staring holes at us in his true form…” Richard shudders. He’d seen what Lucifer looked like; in his true form…it was not pretty.
“Well what the hell did you do to my ribs? That was…painful to say the least,” Mark mutters as Richard saw Castiel twitch in his hold and Richard snapped his fingers and freed them.
“Marked you so Lucifer couldn’t find you…but now the problem is…keeping Lucifer from getting you to say yes.” Richard said as Gabriel was thinking…
He paces around the room, not quite sure how to keep Mark from going to sleep, It was going to happen one way or another. Then he remembered he had the boys from his world frozen.
“Are you mooks going to behave yourselves?” he asked them and they reluctantly nodded. Gabriel couldn’t help but think he’d forgotten someone but who- He looked around the room and just then realized Jared was gone. He went through all the rooms but nothing. He came back, eyes wide…
“Guys…where the hell did Jared run off to? He was just here!” Gabriel yelped.
--
Jared blinked and looked around. Where the hell was he? It looked like the park maybe? He frowned and shivered in the cool night air. How the hell had he gotten out here. He went up the playground and sat down, breath fogging in the air and he reached for his cell phone but when he took it out he saw it had no service. Weird… That was when he heard it, the high toned voice, whispering to him… Jared didn’t really know what was going on, but hadn’t the others been talking about Lucifer and Mark?
Lucifer wasn’t gonna come after him, was he?
The voice was saying he needed him to say yes…if he didn’t everyone Jared cared for would be hurt or killed. Jared let out a huff of air. He’d been raised believing in God, and on Supernatural he’d played Lucifer a grand total of two episodes…That still didn’t mean he knew everything about the fallen angel, but he knew that Sam in the trailer wasn’t going to be saying yes to him any time soon and that Lucifer was having to resort to other methods…methods that were…convincing…
The voice said he’d kill Genevive first, then Jensen, then Misha, then Richard.
Jared had been taught that everyone goes through trials in their lives…he supposed this would be one of his trials if he said yes…If he said yes the world would end…or would it? There wasn’t Michael here to fight Lucifer, there weren’t other demons…Maybe…Maybe Lucifer just wanted to explore this world he was now in? Jared sighed and put his hands through his hair. He silently asked God for forgiveness for his actions he was about to take, and prayed the others would understand…This was for them..so they wouldn’t die…
“Yes,” He said quietly in the night, his breath clouding the air.
--
Gabriel was anxious and it was something none of the men in the room had seen from him or Richard before. Gabriel snarled out curses and looked around to them.
“Cas, you’re coming with me, Everyone else stay here and no killing each other. I’m gonna have you all locked in so…” He snaps his fingers and there’s a huge buffet table that’s suddenly in the room with food and drinks even as Cas came over to Gabriel and Gabriel looked to him and nodded slightly and snapped his fingers the place was sealed even as he and Cas poofed out there to the outside and they started searching for Jared.
“Jared!” Gabriel called out as he looked around in the dark and Cas was gripping his sword. Gabriel had told him to keep an eye out…He took that as a way of saying ‘Hold your sword at the ready’. Gabriel swallowed and had a really bad feeling about this as they got close to the park and he looked to Cas.
“You feel that?” He asked Cas, talking about the feel of…malice in the area. Cas nodded indicating he felt it too. “Put the knife up your sleeve…” He hissed and Cas shifted the sword so it wasn’t seen and they walked into the park, and they saw Jared on the swings, sitting there and looking up at the sky. Gabriel saw the wings behind him, stretched out and black as the night around them.
“Jared, hey…” Richard said as he got closer, aware that Lucifer may have his sword for all he knew and he was right when he saw the gleam of silver in the light.
When Jared looked to him it was like he could see through the guise entirely…
“Hello, Gabriel.” Lucifer said with a tone of boredom, “Don’t bother trying to fool me. I saw you back at Mark’s place. I knew I couldn’t get to him or Sam now, so I went for this one, for Jared. He’s a perfect fit.” Lucifer said as he flexed his fingers.
“Lucifer…what are you doing? There’s no apocalypse to be started here,” Gabriel said a bit harshly and Lucifer looked to him, “Still stingy about me stabbing you I see,” Lucifer said with a smirk.
“You killed me you asshat! What else am I supposed to do?” He growled and Lucifer got up, holding the sword up clearly.
“Die again, after all, I can’t conquer this word with You and Castiel here,” He said as he lunged for Gabriel, who dodged to the side, grabbing Lucifer’s coat and throwing him to the ground, glancing over to Castiel.
“Go, Cas! Go! Get them out of here-“ Then there was a stabbing pain in his chest. Well damnit… there was a smirk on Lucifer’s face and Gabriel felt dejavu all over again as he clutched onto Lucifer’s jacket…He had one thing he needed to do before Lucifer twisted the sword…
He saw Lucifer’s look of surprise as a flare of light came from Gabriel and panting and standing behind Gabriel was Richard, he blinked in shock and Cas grabbed him, realizing that Gabriel had managed to create another body for Richard and forced him into it.
“You just don’t have any luck do you brother?” Lucifer said as he twisted the sword and Gabriel felt the tears go down his face, he was going to miss Richard…yet another world to be banished from…or maybe he’d actually die this time…That would be a sweeter release…
“No! GABRIEL!” Richard yelled and Gabriel realized there was a flutter of wings and even as his grace threatened to explode from him, the light clearly visible from his eyes, Richard had grabbed him and Cas yelled no even as Lucifer seemed stunned as Castiel quickly made the three of them vanish, and Lucifer held a bloody sword even as off in the distance there was a yell and he saw a burst of blue light. Lucifer wiped off the sword. It was Gabriel’s.
He’d taken it when he’d first killed him…He knew he’d had to kill his brother again because the plans Lucifer had for this place…His brother would never understand…
--
“No! Gabriel!” Richard yelled as they reappeared in the trailer, Gabriel clutching onto Richard and smiling at him weakly. The others came running to the two, Cas watching sadly, knowing there was nothing he could do for the wound as Gabriel fell to his knees and put one hand to Richard’s cheek.
“Take it…” He whispered in a pained breath, everyone had gone silent, “Take it…before…before I-“ He shudders and Richard seems to understand and he nods as Gabriel gave him what he could of his power before he froze up and let out an agonized yell and a burst of blue light filled the trailer and Gabriel fell limply to the floor, the shadows of his wings showing clearly against the floor. There was a stunned silence as Richard picked up Gabriel’s body and hugged it to him…He was shaking from his grief and Misha knelt down next to him and squeezed his shoulder.
“How are you not dead?” Dean asked from his spot and Richard looked up to him and glared and Dean actually fidgeted under Richard’s gaze.
“I don’t know…He made me a new body as he got stabbed…I don’t know how he did it…but he didn’t want me dying with him, clearly.” Richard said bitterly, looking to Gabriel. He wished there were some way he could bring him back…He blinked as his wings that seemed to have come with him to the new body shifted and made those fluttering sounds and Everyone looked to him as the wings appeared, as he looked so brokenly at Gabriel. Misha looked to the wings and smiled faintly and Richard looked at Gabriel and said a silent prayer as Cas sent them all to a different place… Richard could feel a pulse of warmth in him that was the once archangel’s power, seeming to be compatible with Richard…
They were in Misha’s home in Los Angeles and even Misha blinked at that as his wife let out a yelp of shock at seeing all these people here.
“Viki, can we get a round of scotch please?” Misha asked and Viki nodded and went off as Richard was silent, as he prayed to God that he do…something…
