"Marvin-"

"All I've done is brought pain to you, your brother, and Henrik, I just can't take it anymore!"

Marvin stood in human form at the edge of the roof despite all of his injuries, Sam standing a few feet back trying to console him as Dean and Schneep ran up to the roof.

"Marvin, vhat are you doing?" Schneep called out to Marvin, the magician unable to meet his gaze.

"All I do is hurt good people." Marvin muttered bitterly as he turned to look out at the city, his blue eyes filled with despair.

"Oh Zauber." Schneep whispered, his tone laced with heart break as he took a step towards the magician.

Marvin flinched back slightly, bringing him closer to the end of the rooftop and what would be the end of his life.

"D-don't come an-any closer." Marvin warned in a stutter, his voice tinged with desperation as he kept an arm wrapped around his wounded abdomen.

"Mein friend, if you were going to jump, you would have already." Schneep pointed out gently.

"I-I...I'm scared." Marvin confessed, swallowing hard as a tear trailed down the visible part of his face.

"Let me help you so we can help each other, please." Schneep begged, taking another step forward.

"You've nearly died because of me-"

"And vice versa, but zhat doesn't matter now. Anti is gone and Dark is gone, leaving just us and the nightmares zhey have created in our minds zhat ve can get through together." Schneep interrupted firmly.

"Marvin, you gotta take a breath and think about what you're doing man, this is crazy!" Dean chimed in.

"I..." Marvin trailed off as he bowed his head in shame, starting to move away from the edge towards Schneep.

The magician abruptly stopped as he fell into a coughing fit, staggering backwards towards the edge.

"ZAUBER!"

Time seemed to move in slow motion for Schneep as Marvin fell backwards off of the roof, his eyes wide in terror as his hands flailed wildly to find something to grab onto.

The German ran as fast as his legs would carry him to the edge, leaning down as far as he could to grab Marvin.

"Gotcha!" Schneep grunted as he grabbed onto Marvin's hand, a combination of disappointment and relief visible in the magician's expression as Dean and Sam helped Schneep pull Marvin up.

Marvin fell to his knees breathing heavily as tears streamed freely down his face, Schneep kneeling in front of him and carefully using the pad of his thumb to wipe away one of Marvin's tears on the visible side of his face.

"I'm s-sorry." Marvin hiccuped, Schneep quietly shushing the male as he held him in his arms.

"You're okay and you're safe, zhat is vhat matters. Everything is okay mein friend." Schneep comforted the magician, standing up and offering Marvin a hand.

Marvin gratefully grabbed it and allowed Schneep to help him stand, Sam and Dean walking over to them from where they were standing to give them privacy.

"It was great working with you Doc, but we gotta go." Dean told Schneep gruffly, holding his hand out for a handshake.

"Auf Wiedersehen, mein Freund, sei sicher." Schneep replied, hugging the male.

Dean stiffened in surprise for a moment before hugging the doctor in return, patting his back as he pulled away.

"I'm going to assume what you said is an insult or some other kind of bullshit." Dean joked, earning a laugh out of Schneep as he moved to say goodbye to Sam.

"Leb wohl, besuch mich bald." Schneep continued, hugging Sam before pulling away after a moment.

"Did you just call Sam bald?" Dean asked, Schneep shaking his head with a smile while Sam glared at his brother.

"Sorry I was gone for so long, is everything okay?"

Schneep jumped in surprise as Cas suddenly appeared next to him, the angel glancing between him, Marvin, and the Winchesters.

"Right in time Cas. Think you can heal Marvin up and take them back home?" Dean asked, the angel nodding as he once again pressed a hand to Marvin's forehead.

Instantly all of his wounds disappeared, the magician peeling off the bandages with an amazed expression.

"Wow." Marvin breathed in disbelief, Cas touching his and Schneep's arm to take them to Brighton.

"Garbage sweet garbage." Schneep sighed as they appeared outside of his house, police cars parked nearby.

Cas nodded goodbye to the two before disappearing, the officers not noticing them yet.

"Here, I got this." Marvin assured the German, his pale green magic floated around him, the magician hovering in the air as his eyes glowed a vibrant blue like sapphires.

Within moments, the police cars drove away as Marvin's magic faded, the magician stumbling slightly as he landed on the ground.

"There, everything should be back to normal now." Marvin told Schneep, the German's eyes wide in shock.

"I know it isn't much as far as repaying you for everything, but-"

Marvin broke off as Schneep hugged the male tight, smiling wide as he thought of seeing Doctor Iplier again as well as all of the patients.

"Hey, I just got my broken rib healed." Marvin wheezed, Schneep apologetically stepping back as his face flushed a light red hue in embarrassment.

"So...vhere vill you be going now?" Schneep asked Marvin, the magician shrugging in response.

"I spent the past two years of my life running and hiding from Anti, but now I don't have to hide anymore." Marvin realized aloud.

"Vould you like to stay vith me? My house is a mess right now, but I don't mind cleaning it and stuff so you can stay in the guest room and I-"

"That sounds perfect, thank you." Marvin interrupted, cutting off Schneep's nervous rambling.

"Vell zhen, velcome home." Schneep replied with a grin, inviting Marvin inside.

The next (and final) chapter is an epilogue, but I've had so much fun writing this! I'm pretty hyped to start my next book though, which is called Remember. Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it!
