The Beginning

Positive

"Okay, give us a minute to pack up and then you can zap us there."

"Oh, no, no, no."

"Balthazar."

"I'm betraying a friend here. A very powerful friend, we all are. So I think I've stuck my neck out far enough already. Good luck." He says before flying off.

"Damn angels." I mutter under my breath, before turning to Bobby.

"Alright I'll go tell Sam and we'll get going then." He heads upstairs and I go back into the room with Elena.

"Okay, Elena. We'll be back soon..." I begin to say as I look down at her face. "Please wake up..." I beg once more, hopeful that she'll wake up as I speak, but no change. I feel my shoulders slump down in disappointment. "We'll find a way to fix whatever Cas has done to you, but first I need to stop him from making this mistake." I lean down and quickly press my lips against hers and then turn to head back up the stairs to find Bobby and Sam.

Once I meet them they're done packing and waiting on me.

"Come on you, Romeo. We only have a few hours before they do the ritual." I nod and we head out to the location.

Castiel:

My friends lost their faith in me. They did not believe me capable of handling something like this. They did not know, the whole time I worked with Crowley, I planned on going back on his deal. I just needed to get what I needed. I wouldn't be so dumb to give the King of Hell this much power. Of course, when I told him, he was not very pleased.

"Here are your options," I begin to say to him. "You can either, flee or die."

"Even I don't break contracts like this."

"Flee or die." I repeat.

He scoffs. "Boy, you can't trust anyone these days." He says before disappearing, leaving me alone with the blood I needed for the ritual.

He was quite right. You really couldn't trust anyone. I knew what I had done to Elena was not going to be enough to stop Sam and Dean. I knew they would look for any way possible to come down and stop me. It didn't take long until I heard the news that I was in fact correct. Sam and Dean were on their way here. They got the information they needed, and I already knew who it was. Betrayed by one of my own, my own brother. Upon hearing the news I called Balthazar down.

First Sam and Dean, and now this. It was hard to understand why everyone was plotting against me. Did they not understand? I'm trying to do what's best for all of us. I'm trying to save us all. I stand over Balthazar's empty vessel.

"I am truly sorry, brother. But you went against me." I say to him as I pull the angel blade out of his back. I did feel a certain amount of sadness as I saw the grace leave his body, but it was necessary. If he went against me now, there was no guarantee he wouldn't try to rise against me at a later date. He must be put down before he got the chance.

Not long after I've dealt with Balthazar, Crowley returns. This time he isn't alone. An angel accompanies him. An angel I know all too well, Raphael.

"Hello, Castiel." He says.

Elena:

I gasp and immediately sit up as my eyes flew open. I look around the room and find myself that I am somewhere I do not recognize. It was an iron room and the walls had a bunch of different markings. I look up and theirs some sort of fan on the ceiling as well. I recognize the pattern on it, it was a devils trap. Dean showed me how to make one, the first time he left me alone back in the bunker.
