It had been completely by accident that he'd found the first note.  He'd been sitting in the Impala with Sam and Bobby, reeling from what had happened.  Cass was a God.  He'd snapped his fingers and Raphy, one of the archangels, had exploded like an over-ripe grapefruit dropped from the top of a ten story building.  He and Sam had been arguing

Dean hadn't lied, though he knew that Cass couldn't understand that. That this was betrayal. He only hoped that after, he'd see that as much as the fact that he'd ended up this way had all been for them, that Dean was doing this for Cass. The fist that hit his chest made him gasp, but, it was much better than he'd expected. He'd half expected that this wouldn't work, or at least wouldn't work enough to keep Cass from destroying him for his betrayal. He was pleasantly surprised.

He took a few of the next blows, instead going for the handcuffs in his pocket. He had not come unprepared. He had come armed for the best while half-expecting the worst. He stepped a little to the side of the next blow, tongue flicking at the blood from his split lip as he slapped one cuff around the subdued God's wrist, ratcheting it down snugly. He then stepped behind him, wincing a little as he took another blow to the side of his ribs. It hurt, yes. But it hit in the normal way that being hit did, not like the last time Cass had beaten him.

Keeping one hand on the handcuffs, he used his other to go for Cass' arm, yanking, fighting against him to pull it back so that he could catch his other hand in the cuffs. His breath was coming fast as they struggled.

"I'm tying you up because I care. I will save you, Cass, even if you don't want to be saved."

He kicked at the back of Cass' knees, trying to wrestle him down to the ground so he could finish restraining him.
