We were standing in between Michael and Lucifer, still wondering how we even got into this mess. Hi. Welcome to my life. Just one big crisis after another. Maybe Sam and Dean should have thought twice about trapping Lucifer on the other side when he saw how they opened a rift. Lucifer was here for Jack and Michael was here for... what was he here for? What the hell does he actually want? Does he have a purpose? Jack was powerful enough to stop him from doing whatever it was he was planning to do and Lucifer is there because he still thinks that Jack is interested in getting to know him. I watched the blood run down Michael's face as he slowly slid down the wall. I don't exactly know what Jack did, only that he completely disabled him before he could do any more damage. I turned quickly on hearing Lucifer roar like he's some T-Rex. Jack was not impressed and it seems Lucifer finally realised that Jack was not interested in being his son. He rushed up on him and slit his throat before anyone could stop him. I caught sight of a blue light and immediately recognised it as Jack's grace. I shoved Lucifer back with as much strength as I could muster. It was apparently a lot of strength as he cracked the tile wall behind him. I caught Jack just before he hit the ground and I healed his throat. I don't know how much grace he'd lost but I'd reacted fast. Maybe not fast enough, he looked weak,

"Jack?" I looked at Lucifer, seeing him get up. He looked far stronger now. Considering Jack was down, Gabriel was powerless and he'd beaten Sam, Dean and my dad before, I figured I had to get Jack out before he could get any stronger. I took a breath before opening my wings. Wings isn't the right term. They were more like burnt chicken drumsticks right now. My first flap was agony but I grabbed Jack and flew through the pain. Lucifer wasn't in the fall so he was also able to fly. He pursued and I didn't think this far ahead. I managed to stay a little ahead of him until one wing just suddenly snapped closed. It must have been a reflex to the pain but I lost altitude immediately. It worked well at first since Lucifer seemed to lose us. We crash landed and Jack was knocked out in the landing. It wasn't my best. I grabbed his shoulders and shook him, "Jack, wake up" Nothing, he was out cold, "Please stay alive" I looked around us and we were also right on the side of a road in the middle of trees, "Jack, wake up. I can't run for us both if he finds us"

"Like now?" I looked up and Lucifer was leaning against one of the trees, palms together, "Michael do that?" My wings were still out but I didn't think I could force them to fly anymore. They folded back in and I had to wince as they dragged against each other,

"You stay away from him" I stood up now,

"Or what?" He tilted his head, "You'll push me away? Run? Very threatening" I didn't have an answer for him. I've never killed before but killing the devil sounds like a good exception. I felt my hands curl into fists. Lucifer's eyes darted down to the movement then back at my face, a smile forming, "You actually going to fight this time? Now that will be a sight. Besides, I'm already on a power high thanks to Jack. What's a bit of murder and infanticide to lift the spirits" I saw his eyes glow and just as he came at me, my blade fell into my hand. I raised it just as he grabbed me but even stabbing him, it did nothing. I looked down at the blade, maybe it was too low but nope, it was sticking into the heart. Lucifer saw it too and smiled, "Like father like daughter" He threw me back into a tree then pulled the blade out. Now Lucifer had an angel blade and I was completely defenceless. I tried shoving him back but he sliced up my arm. I jumped back and held it as blood leaked through my fingers. There was a blinding light and when I looked over, I saw Dean. His eyes glowed blue and I saw a huge pair of wings spread out,

"Michael" I muttered. As if this couldn't get any worse. Dean looked at me and gave me a smile,

"Hey Grace" It seemed like it was really him. Lucifer squared his shoulders, moving out from behind me to directly face Dean,

"You let my brother in"

"Well it turns out, we have something in common. We both want to gut your ass" Lucifer ran at him and Dean threw him across the forest with one kick. He pulled out a knife and I figured now was a good time to leave. I tried dragging Jack but he wasn't going anywhere fast. I took his arms and put him on my back, dragging his feet behind me. I went along the road, hoping to be noticed by a passer-by that could get us further away. I looked back as there was a huge light behind me. I could hear screaming too. It was so loud, I nearly dropped Jack to hold my ears. On the plus side, it didn't sound like Dean so at least one of our problems is gone. Of course, that still left Michael. I turned back and he was looking after us from where I'd just slowly fled from. I knew it wasn't Dean. I watched him for a while but he didn't do anything. He just stared at me. I was slightly blinded by a pair of headlights and as the car past, he was gone. I looked around but I guess he figured we weren't a big enough threat. I should be thankful, since I was already injured and defenceless. I kept walking. I walked for hours, I walked until the sun came up. Finally, my legs buckled. I turned to Jack who was still not awake. I tried the slap technique but still nothing,
