A/N: Things had been really sad for a while. We need to move on :) If you guys haven't heard this beautiful song, do so now! 

"Angelica, I'm afraid I have to leave for some urgent business immediately. It is related to heaven, but I assure you, I will be back as soon as possible." Castiel said to Angelica in Bobby's living room, where Gabriel sat watching television.

"Castiel, I'm not a child. I survived before you too, you know." She smiled at him.

"Yes. Of course, you are a well grown young woman. It is just that your brothers had assigned me to take care of you until they came back." Castiel came towards her, completely unaware of Gabriel's resentful gaze at him as he spoke.

"Bobby's still here, you know." She chimed.

"This is different, Angela. You are in constant danger of angelic affliction during this time, especially now that we have Gabriel here, who is nothing but a refugee of Heaven, whom Michael is undoubtedly after." He sighed. "I had done this to your brothers about a year ago, but had never thought that circumstances would make me do this to you too." Gabriel furrowed his brows but never took his eyes of the two. "Here-"Castiel moved towards Angelica and placed one of his hands on her. A dull blue light emanated from below his hands onto her chest and she gasped.

"It is sigil. I have carved it into your ribs. No angel can track you down now. Not even any archangel." She looked at him, her eyes filled with gratitude.

"Thank you Cas. Now please, don't let me stop you. Go, I'll be fine." She assured him.

"Okay. Take care of yourself. Goodbye, Gabriel." Before Gabriel could reply, he flew away.

About an hour later, when Angelica was in the kitchen she heard her phone ring. Bobby had gone out with Rufus. They were investigating a possible spirit. She picked up her phone. It was Dean.

"Hello?" Angelica began.

"Hey, Angel? How are you? You all right?" Dean's voice made her smile.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Did you guys reach Baltic?" She asked in a concerned tone.

"Yeah, almost. Brady just called. Remember that guy who was Garth's friend?" She put her phone on speaker mode to continue with her dish and put it aside.

"Yeah, what happened?"

"Recently he was at Ramsay's Warehouse, an abandoned building about sixty miles outside of Bobby's place. In the vicinity are happening omens, many of them. We don't know what exactly they indicate though. Lucifer or something else. Even if it is him, we're certain he won't harm you. If it's Michael or the God Squad, they can't do anything either. And the third stooge is right there, so it eliminates all his chances. You need to investigate. We'll need minimum three days to wrap this up. Take Bobby with you."

"I can't. He's out now with Rufus." Angelica said as she continued with her work while contemplating Dean's words. Dean sighed.

"Play date?"

"I guess." She laughed.

"Okay, take Cas."

"He left. Angel business." She could feel Dean getting disappointed on the other line

"What? I told him to stay with you!" His voice rose.

"He carved in me a sigil."

"Oh, so you're marked too now?" He felt a little relieved.

"Yep."

"Well, if there's no one there, uh-" He hesitated.

"I could do it alone." She said confidently.
