at a morgue. A few dayys later.
The brothers and i were walking down the hallway.
We showed our badges to the doctor that was walking out of a room.
Doctor "Your colleagues are already inside."
I looked confused before walking into the room.
Cas and Crowley were already here.
They were standing next to an autopsy table, where a body lied covered by a sheet.
Cas and Crowley nodded "Agents. "
Dean shook his head, annoyed "Okay, this has gotta stop. All right, give me that."
Then he pulled an FBI badge off Crowley's jacket lapel.
Crowley complained "Armani!"
Sam "Okay, enough. Let's have a look."
He pulled down the sheet to reveal the face of the body on the table.
It's an older man with his eyes burnt out
Dean "Ooh. Looks like somebody forgot to put on his sunscreen."
I shot him a look.
Cas "This was Wallace Parker, the very powerful CEO of almost everything."
Sam nodded "And apparently, Lucifer's latest vessel. Wasn't strong enough to hold him."
He covered the guy's face again.
Crowley "Lucifer's not content with slutting it from one random vessel to the next.He's moving on to blue chips—celebrities, captains of industry. He just got a lot more dangerous."
Cas nodded "I agree with Agent Zappa."
Dean asked annoyed "Oh, will you stop?"
At the bunker.
Dean "So, find anything? Anyone powerful or respectable who suddenly changed...or exploded?"
Sam was typing on his laptop "Well, this is pretty interesting. his is the Archbishop of St. Louis with Wallace Parker."
He showed us a picture.
Dean asked confused " So?"
Sam "So, that was him three days ago."
Then he showed us another picture " And this...is him last night at the opening of a food kitchen. Notice anything missing?"
Dean scrolled back and forth through the pictures"Yeah, the big mother of a cross around his neck."
Sam nodded "Exactly. And this morning, his office canceled all further public appearances without comment."
Dean "Okay, so you're thinking that, uh, Lucifer blasted out of Parker and into his buddy the Archbishop here."
Sam shrugged, nodding "Worth a shot."
Dean "Yeah."
Night. Archdiocese of St. Louis.
Dean " It's awfully quiet."
Sam "Yeah, I put in a dozen calls to the Chief of Staff. No one returned."
Dean "Well, we'll have a look around. If it is Lucifer, we'll call the rest of the Scooby gang."
I grimaced "don't call us that "
Then he rang the doorbell but there was no sound.
I rolled my eyes annoyed "Great."
Dean used the door knocker on the door.
No one answered.
Sam picked the lock and we walked in.
It was dark so we used our flashlights.
I tried the light switch but it wasn't working.
We walked into a room.
Looks like someone had a fight in here. Papers were all around the floor, chairs were broken on the ground, a hole in the wall.
I saw a priest on the ground, badly injured.
Dean moved to him "Father, hey.What happened?"
Priest coughed out "We... knew something was wrong.He... he..."
Dean "The Archbishop?"
He coughed out "Uh-huh. Senior staff decided...handle internally and intervene."
Dean "An exorcism."
--
We walked further into the house.
There was a nun with her throat slit, a priest impaled to a wall with a spear and the inverted crosses.
We entered another room and find the Archbishop, lying on the floor with his eyes burnt out.
I sighed "we're too late"
At the bunker.
Sam and Castiel are in the library at the bunker.
Castiel is looking at pictures of the carnage at the archbishop's house on a cell phone, zooming in and out "Ugh. These pictures... The level of violence, it's completely unnecessary."
Sam shook his heead "Lucifer doesn't like to get messed with.I guess when the Archbishop's priests figured out he was possessed, they tried to keep it quiet, do an exorcism. I mean, not that it would've worked. Lucifer blew town, but not before he slaughtered the entire staff.So we were on the right trail. Where's it go now?"
Dean walked in with bags of food " I don't know. Who won the Nobel Peace Prize? Why don't we start there?"
-------
Castiel is reading a newspaper in the library at the bunker.
Then he looked at us confused "Did the Bunker's warding fail?"
I looked at him confused.
Dean walked in " I just powered it down.Crowley called, said he had some big news about Lucifer, whatever the hell that means."
Sam looked at dean confused " Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait a second.So—so now Crowley can just...what, drop in whenever he feels like it? I-I prefer keeping Crowley at a distance. Long distance."
I nodded "he's right."
Suddenly Crowley showed up " Not very charitable, Moose..."
Sam shook his head frustrated.
Crowley "...particularly since, once again, I'm saving both your asses.So, as you know, I'm temporarily persona non grata in my own palace."
Sam asked confused "Palace? "
Dean " Palace?"
Crowley rolled his eyes " "However, there are those I still control. Operatives."
Sam "Crowley, can we just get the damn news without the drama?"
Crowley bit back "Can I get you without the flannel? No. Still, I endure."
Sam asked annoyed "What?"
Crowley "Did a little digging, acting on a tip."
He entered something into Sam's laptop "And I think I know the identity of Lucifer's newest vessel."
Dean's jaw dropped "Oh, for God's sake."
Crowley "Huh? Aha!"
He turned the laptop to us "Gentlemen... I give you one Jefferson Rooney, President of these United States."
My jaw dropped.
--
Cass " Even if Crowley does bring in Rowena, the problem remains.Lucifer can't be returned to the cage inside his vessel.His essence has to be extracted."
Sam nodded "Yeah. And Lucifer has found the perfect safe house. I mean, how do we even start getting close to the President?"
Dean " Well, it helps that he's not in D.C. Well, he's, uh, actually on a fundraising swing through the Midwest."
Sam "Yeah, right now, it looks like his whole party—aides, Secret Service, the whole circus—is staying at an estate owned by Ron Forester, the, uh, hedge fund zillionaire. It's right outside Indianapolis. But it is completely surrounded by walls, security, Secret Service, military.Plan B?"
Dean "He's got a hell of a speaking schedule. He's averaging three events a day, and he's got a gala dinner on Friday night."
Cass "Well, at least he'll be outside of the mansion."
Sam nodded "Yeah, guarded like the Hope Diamond. Plan C?"
---
I saw Cass breaking down to the ground, groaning in pain.
Me "Cas? Cas? Hey."
I rushed over to him.
Cas "Something's happened. Something... Angel radio... There are so many voices."
Sam "What are they saying?"
Cass "There's been a massive surge in celestial energy. A Nephilim is come into being. It's the offspring of an angel and a human."
Dean asked confused "And that's big news?"
Cass nodded "Yes, but the power to produce this is immense. It's much, much greater than a typical angel."
Sam "Lucifer."
Dean asked shocked "W— Lucifer? I didn't know he was dating."
--
We were all in the car driving down a road.
Sam " Yeah, and hey, Crowley? Uh, find out from your government mole if there's a girlfriend or a mistress or a favorite hooker. Someone we don't know about. Got it. All right."
then he hung up "Crowley and Rowena will meet us in Indianapolis. Do we have a plan?"
Dean "Impeach LOTUS and find Rosemary's Baby."
A black SUV came up behind the Impala with a siren blaring siren and lights flashing. It pulled in front of the Impala. Dean pulled over and exits the Impala as a man and two other men exit the SUV.
Dean "Aw, crap."
I looked at Cass "All right. Stay here. We got this."
The brothers and i got out of the car and walked towards the men.
I smiled " Gentlemen, is there a problem?"
Dean flashed his badge "Federal Agents, guys. We need to keep going."
The guy "And I need 6 grand by Saturday, but that ain't happening either."
I raised an eyebrow "You guys know who you're talking to?"
the guy "Winchesters and the Singer. You make those toy badges in craft class on the psyche ward? Nice car, by the way. Really stands out."
He pulled out a gun.
I grabbed his arm and punched him in the face.
Sam "Hey.Wait a second now."
I was struggling to get the gun.
The brothers were fighting the other guys.
Me "Let him go. Now."
He grabbed the gun and stepped away.
Suddenly guns were aimed at us.
Castiel walked out from behind the Impala and the guy pointed his gun at him.
The guy yelled "Stop!Don't move!"
Dean "Cas, don't."
A black limousine approached us.
A man exited the limousine and aimed a grenade launcher at us.
We all moved out of the way. The brothers and i hid behind the Impala while Cass didn't move an inch.
The guy fire the grenade at the black sUV.
The SUV blew up.
The man walked towards the aides who are lying on the ground.
Man "You. Angel. Wipe their memories."
We stood up.
Then he turned to us "U.S. government plates. Elite dogcatcher level.Someone special wants you. Whose hydrant have you lads been tinkling on?"
Dean "I'm sorry. Who the hell are you?"
The man smiled "Oh. Where are my manners?Arthur Ketch. British Men of Letters."
I rolled my eyes annoyed.
Night.
Arthur " So it's all very simple, really. Mick Davies asked you to join our effort, which we're taking international. My instructions are to strongly encourage a "yes.""
Cass asked confused "So, what? You've just been following us?"
Arthur shook his head "Not at all. We're good dogs. We only come when called. And he "
He nodded to Sam "...called."
I looked at Sam irritated.
Dean said kinda pissed off "You what?"
Sam "I-I didn't, uh... I hung up."
Arthur "Yes, you did, which made Mr. Davies think that you were in trouble, which you were. So he rings me. Bing, bang, boom. Meet Bob. He's your uncle.Oh, and, um, you're welcome. Hmm?"
Dean "And why should we believe anything that you have to say?"
Arthur "You, Halo. Do you sense I'm lying?"
Castiel "My name is Castiel. And... no. But the truth can be situational."
Arthur nodded "Oh.Oh, I do enjoy an angel. But I understand your hesitation. You haven't exactly seen us at our best. Lady Bevell is a bit... excitable."
Dean "She tried to kill us."
Arthur shrugged, nodding "Like I said, excitable."
I raised an eyebrow at him "And you're better?"
Arthur "I don't care about you one way or the other.I'm not an ideologue."
Cass "And all you wanna do is help these American Hunters to clear this country of monsters?"
Arthur "We understand things are different here.We're eager to collaborate.The British Men of Letters are centuries old, lads. We can offer expertise, weaponry, skills."
Sam "Like we saw out on the road?"
Arthur "I'm an artist, Mr. Winchester."
He held up his key remote and popped open the trunk of his car "I paint in many colors."
Dean "Was that a grenade launcher?"
Arthur "Quite."
Dean shot me a look "Ah."
I shook my head "uh no"
Arthur leaned into the trunk " Our engineers have spent years blending sorcery and technology. For instance, we don't always decapitate vampires. Inefficient, really, especially for large nests."
He pulled out a weapon " We irradiate them, reorder their DNA. Their own blood becomes lethal to them."
Sam nodded, impressed "Cool."
Arthur nodded "Mm. The toys are the fun part, hmm?"
He took out another object. It looked like a large golden egg with ancient symbols etched into it "Hyperbolic Pulse Generator.Exorcisms are unreliable. This device emits a force which drives the possessing demon from the vessel."
Sam "What about a, uh, possessing angel?"
Arthur eyed us "And what might you guys be working on?"
Dean "Well, you want us to trust you, you're gonna have to trust us first."
Arthur "And that means?"
In a hotel room.
I grabbed the golden egg.
Crowley asked amused " So you're gonna pop Lucifer out of the President with that?"
Dean grabbed the egg from me " I hope so. Otherwise, we're all dead. Then Rowena zaps him back to the cage. Of course, we gotta get him here first."
Sam nodded "Yeah. We need to get ahold of this, uh, secret girlfriend Crowley found out about. This...Kelly. Of course, she's in that mansion with the President, which is guarded like a fortress. Only one of us has a chance of getting in there."
We all looked at Crowley.
Crowley scoffed " Bollocks."
--
Kelly shook her head " No, no, you're making it up. It's impossible."
Dean "Well, to be fair, so is teleporting.But...ta-da."
Kelly asked confused "Who are you people?"
Rowena "Well, dear, I'm a witch."
She gestured to Cass "He's an angel. "
Cass bowed a little.
Crowley raised his hand "I'm the King of Hell. "
Then he gestured to me "And that pretty girl is a princess of hell...and maybe the future queen"
I shook my head "hell no"
Crowley smirked "Exactly "hell"."
Kelly froze "Oh, God."
Cass shook his head "No, actually, he left."
Sam nodded "Okay, guys, not helping."
Kelly shook her head "You—you can't. He's the President."
Sam "He was, but now... Tell me he hasn't been acting different."
Kelly "Jeff's been under a lot of stress. He..."
Crowley "Wrong. He's the Devil. Horns, pitchfork, the whole nine."
Sam shot Crowley a look "Crowley, still not helping. Listen, we know what we're talking about here. We have been on Lucifer's trail for a long time."
Rowena "And we know you're pregnant with his child."
Kelly's jaw dropped "That's—that's—you're lying."
Cass "The thing inside you, it's unholy."
He opened a nightstand drawer and pulled out a bible " It's an abomination."
Kelly shook her head "That's n—"
Cass held the bible in front of Kelly "Place your hand here."
She put a hand on it .Her handprint was seared into the cover of the Bible and erupted in flames.
My eyes widened "wow"
Dean brought over a trash can and pitcher of water and Cass dropped the Bible into it.
Then Dean poured the water onto the bible.
Kelly's jaw dropped and she shook her head "No. Oh, no."
Dean "Does he even know you're knocked up?"
Kelly nodded "Yes, he...He said he was thrilled. He said it was the only time he ever created anything."
Sam "Kelly...we need your help."
---
Were were hiding in the other room while Kelly was in the main room, waiting for Lucifer to show up.
We heard a guard called out " Ms. Kline."
One man opened a closet and found Castiel standing there.
Cas places two fingers on the guard's temple " There's no one in here but Kelly. Go wait in your car."
Guard nodded "It's clear."
Then he walked out.
-
We could hear everything that was going on.
Lucifer "Kelly. Kelly, what's wrong?"
Kelly "I told you on the phone. I can't have this baby."
Suddenly we heard gasping and a crashing .
Lucifer " I'm afraid I'll have to insist."
Sam rushed out of the room.
He held the Hyperbolic Pulse Generator.
Then he places his hand on a sigil that was painted on the inside of the door he came through
Lucifer rolled his eyes annoyed "Sam!"
Sam "Vade retro."
Lucifer "We've done this dance so many times."
Sam "Princeps Inferni."
Dean and i rushed into the room.
The egg was shooting a white light at Lucifer's chest, driving him away.
A strong wind was created by the light stream.
Sam was struggling to keep his place .
Dean "Sam!"
Lucifer tried his magic but nothing was happening.
Light bulbs started popping as the stream of light continued to pulsate into Lucifer.
Dean yelled "Rowena, now!"
Rowena was standing over a table with a large bowl and candles on it.
She dropped something into the bowl and flames erupted "Mah tay, ez loh, say tah!"
Lucifer face started to crack and light could be seen under his skin.
He yelled " This isn't over, Sam!"
Sam yelled " Go to Hell!"
Rowena yelled "Mah tay, ez loh, say tah! Mah tay, ez loh, say tah!"
A stream of white light streamed out of Lucifer's mouth, swirled around the hotel room and down into a heating vent.
The room went silent.
We all looked at each other.
Jeff collapsed to the floor.
Cass walked over to him "He's alive. He won't remember a thing."
Kelly rushed over him, panicking "Oh, Jeff. Oh, my God.Jeff? Oh, my God."
Dean looked "We gotta go. Get her out of here. Go.""
I shook my head "Dean-"
Dean "babe, grab Cass and the chick and get the hell out of here. no matter what, you stay away"
Me "but-"
He gave me a kiss "love you"
I grabbed Kelly and pulled her out through the back door with me.
Kelly "Wait, wait."
Guards rushed in through the other door with aimed guns.
I froze "oh my god. "
Cass "Elena, we have to go"
I shook my head "they're in trouble"
Cass "Elena"
Me "Cass"
Cass shot me a look before putting an arm around my waist and picking me up and carrying me away.
I fought him "Cas! let me go you god damned angel. "
At a diner.
Kelly " I'm sorry. I just...I need a minute."
Then she walked to the ladies room.
Cas looked at me before sighing "don't look at me like that"
I crossed my arms over my chest "like what?"
Cas shook his head "we are her only chance, Elena"
I nodded.
Suddenly my phone rang.
I answered it and put it on speaker "Hello?"
Kelly "Elena. Castiel...I can't do it."
I sighed, annoyed "she snuck out. "
Castiel "Kelly."
Kelly "I can feel it inside me. I'm its mother."
Cass "Kelly, you listen to me. This is not a baby. This is the spawn of Lucifer."
Kelly "It's my child."
Then she hung up.
