THE BUNKER

Sam is sitting on a table with his laptop, Dean comes jogging in.

"Any word from Cas?" Sam Asks

"Nothing yet." Dean Says

"And we're not ... worried about him, that he just took off like that again? I mean, it's not like he does this kind of stuff alone." Sam Says

"It's the way he wanted it, honestly." He looks at Sam who looks unconvinced "Hey, look, man, he's been all over the map since he got his wings clipped. What do you got?" He rolls his chair over to Sam to look at his laptop "Obituaries. That one of the bikers?" Dean Says

"Yeah. His name was Red Dawg." Sam Says

"Heh. Of course it was." Dean Says

"It's not what you think. Look, he's a family guy. Big in the PTA, he played Santa at Christmas parties." Sam Says

"So, what? Just one day, he up and joined a biker gang?" Dean Says

"No, he did that years ago. Get this. This is weird. Look. These are all the victims, right? They were all baptized together." Sam Says

"Baptized?" Dean Says

"Yeah. They were a born-again biker gang." Sam Says

"Well, that is not something you hear every day." Dean Says

"No, it's not." Sam Says

Dean sees something on the screen "Wait, make that bigger." Sam does so, and they look at a biker logo on a jacket. "Boyle's Boys"? Boyle, as in reverend Buddy Boyle?"

Sam learns forward and does some fancy fingerwork on the keyboard for a second.

"Listen to this. Red Dawg's widow said he was always religious, but a week before he died, he came home from a prayer meeting and was a changed man filled with divine glory." Sam Says

"So, Boyle's at it again. Selling folks on being meat suits for angels." Dean Says

"Just what – talking to smaller groups now?" Sam Says

"I don't know. Maybe, uh, softening up thousands at a time, he wasn't able to control what angels got let in. This way, Bartholomew's followers can jump in just as soon as Boyle does his thing." Dean Says

"So, Red Dawg and his guys were Bartholomew people?" Sam Says

"Yeah, and they got slaughtered. Which means that this new group is even worse...Haven't I always said that angels are dicks?" Dean Says

WOODS

There's a campfire with a bunch of adults sitting around a circle holding books, The Blonde Glee Club Angel is giving an inspirational speech.

"And I so appreciate the opportunity to address your Bible-study group. I admire your passion, your energy, your devotion, You are exactly what God and His angels have in mind for the crusade Now, rise."
A bunch of white lights are streaming and swirling around above the campfire. "Join hands, all of you.
Feel the Heavenly host reach out to embrace you.
Embrace them back! The angels want nothing more than to feel your love." She Says

The white lights start heading toward their waiting vessels down below as the campers look up with open-mouthed delight and wonder.

"Welcome them into your hearts..Let them in!
In the name of Malachi, let them in!" She Says

As she is reaching a sort of ecstatic climax of excitement, she is suddenly stabbed by someone coming from behind – her angelic white light floods from a stab wound in her chest there's Lots of screams. Angels are running around, placing their hands on the humans' foreheads; the humans fall down, their eyes burnt out as last seen in season four. The Blonde Angel lies dead, a blood stain on her chest.

CORINNA'S HOUSE

It's night and Corinna is asleep in her bed, she hears something coming from outside her room an opens one eye. Parker starts growling.

"Shh Parker." Corinna Says

Corinna gets off her bed and goes over to her closet and pulls out her shotgun, she loads them with a few rounds and quietly leaves her room. She walks into the dark living room holding her gun out, Corinna walks towards the kitchen and immediately gets pinned to the wall.

"What the hell—" Corinna Says

She locks eyes with a person wearing a mask covering his face, all she could see was blue eyes and their knife pinching her throat.

"You scream and I'll kill you and your dumb dog." He Says

"What do you want?" Corinna Asks

"I want your money and don't say that you don't have money...Stark." He Says

"I don't have any money on me." Corinna Says

"Stop lying." He Makes a small cut across her face, Corinna winces in pain "..Where's the money?!"

The man breathes out and his breath becomes visible, Corinna's as well and the temperature drops in the room. He looks up and notices that the lights start flickering off and the burglar gets pushed across the room by an invisible force, Corinna gasp for air and watches as a ghost flickers in her kitchen.

The ghostly figure attacks the burglar by reaching their hands into the burglar chest and the burglar screamed out in pain. Corinna watches on as the ghost freezes the burglar's body and he falls to the ground dead, the ghost turns around and looks at Corinna who grabs her gun.

"No No Stay away!" Corinna Says

"Don't shoot it's me it's me!" The ghost steps forward, the lights turn on and he shows himself "..Hey Babe." Denny Says As Corinna's eyes widen in shock

"..Denny?"  Corinna Says

BRIDGE

Gadreel and Metatron are standing under a bridge, he's trying to convince Gadreel to join him.

"Frankly, I never got used to them. I lived among them for centuries. I had to isolate myself to keep sane." Metatron Says

"Humans do seem chaotic, Metatron." Gadreel Says

"Which makes them fascinating, but... All that emotion. Geez. And the wasted energy. It's just... exhausting." Metatron Says

"I know. Sam Winchester... It is a mess in here. And the brother – I do not know where to start." Gadreel Says

"I can free you from them. From all of them." Metatron Says

"You intend to be the ruler of this new Heaven, am I correct?" Gadreel Says

"Uh... It is a burden I feel I must accept." Metatron Says

"Then Metatron, does that not make you God?" Gadreel Asks

"Oh-ho-ho. Semantics. I don't know that I'd take on THAT name...necessarily. No. When the time comes, we'll call me... "X." Metatron Says

"X"?" Gadreel Says

"You and I ... We could have paradise again, Gadreel." Metatron Says

HOTEL ROOM

Castiel is kneeling in front of bed, preparing for a prayer.

"Okay." He closes his eyes, and folds his hands in prayer. "I'm... unfamiliar with this end of the process. Of course, no one may be listening, um, but I – I do need assistance." Castiel Says

He sits on the bed in lotus position, legs folded, arms extended, thumb and forefinger touching.

"I have questions, and there seem to be no answers.
I... I wouldn't presume to ask for help if I weren't desperate, but I need help.I'm lost..I need your guidance..Please hear my prayer..I don't know how humans do it." Castiel Says

Giving up for now, Castiel walks over to the TV, and tries to turn it on. It seems unresponsive.

"Try plugging it in." Castiel looks to the door, and opens it up. "Surely that wasn't the answer you were seeking."

"You're an angel!" Castiel Says

"Muriel..I didn't pick the outfit..Castiel?" She Says and turns away to leave

"No, wait – please, just hear me out!" Castiel Says

"It can't be known that I even spoke to you." Muriel Says

"I just need a moment." Castiel Says

"No." Muriel Says

"Please. I just need information." Castiel Says

BUNKER MAIN ROOM

Kevin and Dean are researching in the library. Dean is at a laptop, Kevin is looking at a tablet.

"Dean, there may be nothing in here. Crowley said the spell that cast down the angels was irreversible." Kevin Says

"Yeah, well, screw Crowley. Why would you think that anything he says is true?" Dean Says

"This part is nearly indecipherable. Almost like, when Metatron wrote it down, he wanted to keep the words hidden, even from Prophets." Kevin Says Then Sam Enters

"Hey." Sam Says

"Hey. Check this out. Another angel attack." Dean Says

"What? Where?" Sam Asks

"Utah. A, uh, college, uh, Bible-study group and their, uh, their guest speaker – some top-shelf church lady. Insides scorched out, kids' eyes were missing, but, not the church lady's." Dean Says

"So, she was an angel, too?" Sam Says

"Sounds like. Uh, and she sang soprano for the, uh, Melody Ministry Glee Club?" Dean Says

"Okay?" Sam Says

"The club goes to its gigs on a bus, so when I checked with the Wyoming cops, they said that a witness saw the same bus leaving the biker bar not long before the bodies were found." Dean Says

"So, church-lady angel was at both killings?" Sam Says

"I'm guessing that she and whoever she's running with killed Bartholomew's bikers at the bar and then Bart's boys hit her back." Dean Says

"When she was recruiting those students to be vessels..Wow. It's a bunch of kids." Sam Says

"Kevin. Clock's ticking." Dean Says

CORINNA HOUSE

Corinna who's dressed in her regular clothes sits on the couch with her hands closed in her thoughts, Denny sits a few cushions down from her.

"So your just not gonna say anything to me...like at all." Denny Says As Corinna sighs

"I'm sorry just trying to process everything that happened last night, I was almost robbed and my dead husband came to my rescue....sounds like a really cheesy 80's movie." Corinna Says

"Corinna..." Denny Says

"Denny why are you here?" Corinna Asks

"What do you mean why I'm here isn't it obvious." Denny Says

"What are you on some sort of mission." Corinna Says

"Yes I'm not ready to go yet, Look am I angry that I died hell yeah it wasn't my time yet. But Now that I know I have a son on the way...I can't leave." Denny Says

"You know?" Corinna Says

"Yeah I've been around you ever since that day at the hospital, I never your side and I'm not going to especially now" Denny Says

"Denny." Corinna Says

"Corinna ever since you've been pregnant, you have been attacked not once but twice now." Denny Says

"I know." Corinna Says

"Maybe Sam and Dean are right, you and the baby need to be protected." Denny Says

"I'm fine being on my own.." Corinna Says

"But your not gonna be alone anymore, Babe I miss you so much...there's time I wish I could bring you with me but that's me being selfish." Corinna tears up "..but it's just not your time, you have a reason to keep going...our little guy is that reason." Denny Says

"I know...I just wish you were here, with me and Parker...we miss you so much." Corinna Says

"I miss you guys too...I love you." Denny Says

"I love you more." Corinna Says

HOTEL ROOM

"Let's say you're telling the truth and Metatron tricked you. I should still turn you in." Muriel Says

"But you won't." Castiel Says

"Don't be so sure." Muriel Says

"I... I think you instinctively trust me. We're similar. We both want no part of the fanatics." Castiel Says

"And when you prayed. How did you know you wouldn't get one of them?" Muriel Says

"I'm warded, and my Grace is gone, and I was hoping that I would seem like just another desperate human that the... the militants couldn't care less about." Castiel Says

"And you think I care?" Muriel Says

"You're here. You may know the situation. Bartholomew, he's in a blood feud with another faction." Castiel Says

"It's madness." Muriel Says

"Who leads the opposition?" Castiel Asks

"Malachi." Muriel Says

"Malachi? The anarchist." Castiel Says

"He's become equals with Bartholomew. In some ways, worse." Muriel Says

"But there's still those like you who want to stay out of it." Castiel Says

"Fewer and fewer. Each side is rounding up those who try and stay neutral. Angels are being tortured and killed if they don't pledge loyalty." Muriel Says

"It's worse than I thought." Castiel Says

"Each side wants to crush the other, overthrow Metatron, and rule Heaven, and... Heaven under either of them would be..." Muriel Says

"Hell." Castiel Says

Suddenly the door is kicked in, and Malachi's thug, Theo and another shorter person behind him burst in. Castiel and Muriel stare in horror.

MALACHI'S HIDEOUT

A long hallway, dark with sporadic lamps. Lashing sounds and screams in the distance.

"This is a bonus, Castiel. We were tracking Muriel, cowardly holdout that she is." Muriel is shown: She is bound, and bloody and bruised about the face.
"And wonder of wonders, she led us to you." Malachi Says to Castiel is also bloody and beaten

"Not knowingly." Muriel Says

"I stand corrected. Not knowingly. Stupidly." Malachi Says

"I've explained in detail. I don't know how Metatron's spell worked. Therefore, I can't assist in reversing it. I was an unwitting accomplice." Castiel Says

"Ohhh. A dupe. The great Castiel. Valued and trusted Castiel." He walks over to a tray of metal devices, medical or dental, with clear torture value. "Top-of-the-Christmas-tree Castiel. No more than a dupe.
Dupe or mastermind, you were inside the circle. You know where Metatron's weakness lies." Malachi Says

"No. I don't." Castiel Says

"Theo." Malachi Says

"No!" Theo pulls his head back, and slides a silver angel knife down his chest "Ahhh, ahhh!" Castiel groans in pain

"You'd suffer, even die for your beliefs. I get it.
But is Metatron, whose poll numbers have totally tanked." He laughs " ...worth your life? More importantly, is Metatron worth her life?" Malachi Says

"No. No, she's innocent. You leave her alone." Castiel Says

"Hm. I have no intention of touching her." Malachi Says

Malachi looks at Theo who nods, Muriel pants in fear as he approaches her.

"Virtue is its own punishment." Malachi Says

"Please, no!" Castiel Says

"Nooooo!" Muriel Yells As Theo stabs her in the chest with a silver angel-knife
