THEN

From 4.02 "Are You There, God? It's Me, Catty Winchester", in the Singer House, Catty and Castiel were talking.

"I thought Angels were supposed to be guardians," Catty told him. "Fluffy wings, halos. Not dicks."

"Read the Bible," Castiel told her. 

From 5.18 "Point of No Return", 9.21 "King of the Damned", 11.17 "Red Meat", Octavia, Castiel and Levi were fighting the Angels that had attacked them, killing them.

Castiel: (voice over from 4.02 Are You There, God? It's Me, Catty Winchester) "Angels are warriors of God. I'm a soldier."

From 4.07 "It's the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester", in the motel room, Sam and Octavia were talking.

"Yeah, the Angels already warned me, Octavia," Sam told her.

Octavia nodded. "And they won't warn you again. One word, and they can turn you to dust."

From 11.10 "The Devil in the Details", in the desert surrounded by Darkness smoke, Sabrina and Levi were talking.

"Levi, why are you helping me?" Sabrina asked. "Most Angels hate me."

Levi sighed. "I don't hate you, Sabrina. Honestly, if I had a choice in the matter, I would've stayed on Earth instead of going back to Heaven."

"So you're one of those Angels that hate Heaven, huh?" Sabrina asked. "So, why are you listening to Heaven's orders?"

"Because I took it as an opportunity to get the hell out of that place," Levi answered. "I'm what they call expendable. So, maybe we're not super important, but we do the job. And for what? So one of the other Angels can turn around and stab us with an Angel Blade if they have a mood swing? Your family has a sense of loyalty and love and responsibility. You're all important, and you'd never stand for sacrificing each other." He looked at Sabrina. "I think there's nobility in that."

From 12.08 "LOTUS", in the Presidential compound, Jeff was sitting on his bed. A bright light appeared, and he shuddered as the light entered his body.

Crowley: (voice over from 12.08 LOTUS) "I think I know the identity of Lucifer's newest vessel."

From 12.08 "LOTUS", in the Bunker's library, Amara read from the laptop. "Jefferson Rooney, President of the United States."

From 12.08 "LOTUS", in Jeff's room, Jeff/Lucifer and Kelly were in bed.

Kelly had her head on his chest. "I just know you'd make an amazing father."

From 12.08 "LOTUS", in the Bunker, the family and Levi were talking.

"Nephilim has come into being," Castiel told them.

Ness looked at them in realization. "Lucifer."

From 12.08 "LOTUS", in the motel room, Sabrina sensed something when she touched Kelly, backing away, startled. "That's a lot more power for just one. It was like when I felt the power from Aunt Ava when she was pregnant with Ariel and Faith, but... stronger. Like the feeling I got when I found out Aunt Ness was having twins, Aiden and Amara."

From 12.08 "LOTUS", in the motel room, Sabrina was starting to glow with white light, along with the Hyperbolic Pulse Generator, shooting a ray of white light into Jeff/Lucifer's chest, driving him away. A strong wind was created by the power, strong enough to make everyone have to struggle to stay in place. Levi helped Sabrina keep a hold of the Generator. Rowena cast her spell, making flames erupt from the bowl. Lucifer's Grace was exorcised from Jeff's body.

Catty: (voice over from 12.08 LOTUS) "Sabrina uses that and her Hybrid power to exorcise Lucifer, then Rowena zaps him back to the Cage with the 'Book of the Damned' spell."

From 12.09 "First Blood", in site 94, Camp looked at Rick. "What about the girl?"

From 12.08 "LOTUS", outside the motel, Rick slammed his hand over a Banishing Sigil on the wall, sending Castiel, Sabrina and Levi away. Kelly gasped in shock and fear, running away.

Rick: (voice over from 12.09 First Blood) "Kelly Kline. She's a presidential aide. We don't know where she went or if she's still alive."

From 12.09 "First Blood", outside of Site 94, the family and Levi were standing together against Billie.

"Who is that?" Ariel asked.

"Billie," Castiel answered.

"The Reaper?" Faith asked.

"We made a deal," Sam told them.

"Come midnight, a Winchester goes bye-bye," Billie told them. "Wee made a pact, bound in blood. You break that, there's consequences on a cosmic scale."

Faith used her power to throw Mary's gun out of her hand, making it fall. Ariel pulled Mary away from Billie. Billie stepped closer as if to fight, but Sabrina held her hand toward Billie, using her power to freeze her in place. An Angel Blade pierced through Billie's chest from behind, making her glow with white light and fall down dead, revealing Levi behind her.

"Levi, what have you done?" Octavia asked.

"What had to be done," Levi answered. "Yeah, you made a stupid deal, and I broke it. You're welcome."

NOW

  §  

Day One 

Morning - Bar

A woman was playing the arcade game Rampage.

The bartender was cleaning up. "Unplugging things now. Hint, hint."

"Yes, I'm almost finished," the woman told him

"You don't have to beat that game every night," the bartender told her.

"I disagree," the woman told him.

The man carried a trash bag toward the door. "Fine. I'm gonna take this out. Time I get back, we are closed. You leave, end of story."

The woman continued playing.

A redheaded woman with an eye patch walked in. "You're too old for video games."

Woman 1 looked at her, frowning. "Were you waiting to play?"

"Everyone deserves a turn," Woman 2 told her.

Woman 1 scoffed. "I'm sorry. Have we met?"

"Have we?" Woman 2 asked.

Woman 1 turned to leave. "Move out of my way."

"Or?" Woman 2 asked.

"Or I will move you," Woman 1 answered.

"Really?" Woman 2 asked. "Go ahead. Try."

Woman 1 stepped around to get around Woman 2, but she moved to block her.

"Suit yourself," Woman 1 told her, raising her hand as if to smite, but was stopped by something, trying again with the same result.

Woman 2 smirked, revealing the other woman actually as an Angel, and male. "Oh, Benjamin. Your little Angel tricks won't work on me."

Benjamin pulled out an Angel Blade. "Who are you?"

The woman pulled out two Angel Blades, slashing toward Benjamin repeatedly. Benjamin used his blade to block the blows, ducking another slash, slashing toward the woman. The woman ducked, elbowing Benjamin in the head, using both her blades to maneuver Benjamin's blade out of his hands to the floor, punching him in the face, waving her blades in his face. Benjamin stole one of her blades, slashing toward her. The woman backed away, slashing toward him. Benjamin ducked. The woman grabbed him, making him drop his Angel Blade, pinning him to the wall.

Benjamin was breathing heavily. "Don't. Please." The woman chuckled. Benjamin closed his eyes to pray. "Oh-law zeer ah tee-loh-kah." The lights started to flicker. "Oh-law zeer ah- tee-loh-kah." All of the games were flickering and going out. "Yar-ree fee-fee-suh, pie neez."

"That's right," the woman told him. "Call your friends."

  § 

Unknown Location 

Two more Angels, a woman and a man, standing together, could hear Benjamin through prayer. "Nuh-nah-ee-luh zee-rum ah-duh-fantuh. Oh-law zeer ah tee-loh-kah. Yar-ree fee-fee-suh, pie neez."

  § 

Lebanon, Kansas

The Bunker - Library

Octavia, Levi and Castiel could hear Benjamin praying to them. "Yar-ree fee-fee-suh, pie neez." The electricity was flickering. "Nuh-nah-ee-luh zee-rum ah-duh-fantuh. Oh-law zeer ah tee-loh-kah. Oh-law zeer ah tee-loh-kah."

 § 

Unknown Location 

The two other Angels were standing together, looking up as they listened to Benjamin praying. "Oh-law zeer ah tee-loh-kah. Yar-ree fee-fee-suh, pie neez. Yar-ree fee-fee-suh, pie neez."

 § 

The Bunker - Library

Octavia, Levi and Castiel looked around, then up, as they listened to Benjamin praying to them. "Nuh-nah-ee-luh zee-rum ah-duh-fantuh. Nuh-nah-ee-luh zee-rum ah-duh-fantuh."

 § 

Bar

The woman spoke softly to Benjamin. "I've waited so long."

The woman drove her Angel Blade into Benjamin's heart, killing him with a bright flash of white light, burning his wings into the wall, letting him fall, walking away, leaving the bar.

 §  Worlds Colliding (Supernatural)  §

The Bunker - War Room 

Ness was looking at a board of research dedicated to finding Kelly and the Nephilim babies she was carrying the belonged to Lucifer.

Catty, Amara and Dean were eating breakfast at the table, while Aiden was eating in his high chair.

Sam, Ariel and Faith walked in.

"Yeah, I was looking at that earlier," Sam told them. "Cas, Sow, Ava and Levi have been busy, huh?"

"Yeah, busy not finding Kelly Kline or her Rosemary's babies," Dean told them. 

Sabrina walked toward them. "Well, to be fair, Lucifer was able to hide from me because of Hybrid Warding. And I was only able to find Kelly before because she was at the presidential compound. I couldn't sense her."

"So, you think that Lucifer either warded them himself or that he just passed that warding down?" Amara asked.

Ness shrugged. "Well, I think that's what we're trying to figure out."

"Hey, Catty, you hear from Mom yet?" Dean asked.

Catty nodded. "Yeah, she called last night, said she got a line on a Shapeshifter in Atlanta. I said we could come help, and she said, 'Don't bother'. Apparently, she's got it."

Amara chuckled. "Then she's probably got it. Grandma's good. We all went hunting with her when you guys were..." She looked at Aiden. Aiden looked up, making a mess with his food, smiling. "Away, and while we were all worried about you."

"It was pretty badass," Ness told them.

Faith smiled a small smile. "Yeah."

"Well, at least you guys got to spend quality time with her," Sam told them.

Faith nodded. "It would be cool if we could all go out hunting together, you know. Have Aunt Ness's friends Jody, Claire, Alex and Sage watch Aiden so we can just hunt together."

Ariel chuckled. "I actually really like that idea. Come on, it would be awesome."

"You're new around here, Ariel, but you should know, that is Uncle Dean's word," Sabrina told her.

They chuckled.

Ness looked at Dean, sighing. "You talk to Levi yet?"

"No," Dean answered.

Sabrina scoffed. "So, what, you're just gonna keep doing jobs, not saying a word?"

"Maybe," Dean answered, taking a drink of coffee.

"Look, yes, Levi killed Billie, but he saved us," Amara told him. "All of us."

Catty rolled her eyes. "How long are you gonna stay pissed?"

"I'm not pissed that he cares about us, you know," Dean told them. "I'm--I'm grateful. But Billie said there would be 'cosmic consequences' if that deal got broken. You have any idea what that means?"

Ariel, Faith, Sabrina and Amara answered together. "No."

"Neither do any of us," Sam told them.

"Well, I'm pretty sure it ain't jelly beans and g-strings," Dean told them.

"The point is, Levi thought he was doing the right thing," Ariel told him.

Castiel, Octavia and Levi walked in.

"I was doing the right thing," Levi told them.

Amara awkwardly took a bite of her breakfast. "Uh-oh."

"You sure about that?" Sam asked.

"Yes," Levi answered.

"Yeah, well, we're not so sure," Sam told him. "And when the other shoe drops--"

"I'll deal with it," Levi told them. He looked at Castiel and Octavia. "Are you ready to go?"

"Yes," Castiel answered.

"Got a lead on Kelly?" Ness asked.

"No," Castiel answered. "This is Angel business."

"Meaning what?" Ariel asked.

"Another Angel, an old friend, he called out for help," Octavia explained. "Benjamin."

"Oh, good, old reliable Angel Radio," Catty told them sarcastically.

"He was begging for help, and then he just stopped," Octavia told them. "We need to know if he's still alive."

Ness nodded. "Yeah, all right."

"Uh, we could go with you," Catty told them.

"All of you?" Castiel asked.

"Yeah, why not?" Faith asked. "I mean, Amara, Ariel, Sabrina and I were just saying it could be cool to all go out together."

Ariel smiled. "Yeah."

They looked at Dean.

Sam nodded. "Sure. Yeah, we could help." 

"I mean, Ariel and I don't know any other Angels," Faith told them. "It could be cool to meet some of your old friends."

Sabrina chuckled. "Yeah, don't be so sure about that."

"Yeah, other Angels besides Aunt Ava, Uncle Cas, and Levi suck," Amara told them.

"Really?" Ariel asked.

Sabrina and Amara nodded. "Really."

They chuckled.

Dean stood, looking at Levi. "Besides, gotta make sure you don't do anything else stupid."

Levi looked away. Catty and Sabrina rolled their eyes. Ness sighed, giving Dean a look. Amara tilted her head slightly. Faith and Ariel tilted their heads awkwardly. Sam, Octavia and Castiel sighed.

"Cas, Ava, Levi, is there anything specific we should know about your friend?" Ness asked. Castiel and Octavia exchanged a look, looking at Levi, but he looked away. "All right, guys, you know what? This--this silent treatment thing, it's silly. It's not gonna work."

Catty nodded. "Whatever you guys are walking into to... we should, you know... probably have an actual plan."

Levi sighed. "What do you want to know?"

"Oh, he speaks," Sabrina told them teasingly to lighten the mood.

"You said when you heard Benjamin, he--he was screaming," Sam told them.

"It was, um..." Castiel trailed off. "Look, Benjamin wouldn't call for help lightly. And he wouldn't put himself in harm's way if he could help it."

"Wow, this Benjamin, he seems like he's pretty cool, you know," Dean told them. "Like he wouldn't make any half-cocked, knee-jerk choices."

Amara tilted her head. "Dad."

"Yeah, you know what I like about him?" Levi asked. "Is that he's sarcastic, but he's thoughtful and appreciative, too."

"Now what is that supposed to mean?" Dean asked.

"Okay," Octavia told them. "Okay, okay. Enough."

 "Anything else, Mom?" Faith asked.

Octavia sighed. "Benjamin is always very careful. Long ago, he found a powerfully devout vessel in Madrid, and her faith, it... She gave him everything. Her trust and her body."

"Wait, so Benjamin's a woman?" Ariel asked.

"Benjamin is an Angel," Castiel answered. "His vessel is a woman. But it--it's more than that. She's not just his vessel. She's..."

"She's his friend," Amara finished.

"Yeah," Levi answered. "Benjamin would never put her in unnecessary danger."

"Okay, well, if this Benjamin is so careful, then what happened?" Sabrina asked.

"We don't know," Octavia told them. "That's what I need to find out."

Faith nodded. "Okay, let's find out."

Amara looked at Dean and Ness hopefully. "Together, right?" Dean and Ness gave her an amused look. "What, Mom, Dad, come on. I feel like I'm caged all the time, and Mom, you hate doing nothing more than me."

Catty smirked. "Amara's got a point, Ness. I mean, being the stay at home Mom for Aiden and Amara, who cooks chicken soup for dinner is got to be driving you crazy."

Sam nodded. "Especially when you used to be the ultimate huntress with the Mark."

Ness chuckled, shaking her head. "Fine, let's go."

 § 

Hotel Room 

The woman that had killed Benjamin was laying on her bed, whispering.

 § 

Bar

The family and Levi were looking around the bar, talking to the bartender, while no one else was around.

Sam looked at the bartender. "The police report is calling it a stabbing."

"Sure, yeah," the bartender answered. "That's the official story. I mean, I was outside, and... dead woman? No blood? Come on. And these crazy burn marks? It's a cult thing, right? That's why the FBI's--"

"Get out," Faith told him.

"What?" the bartender asked.

"Get out," Faith repeated.

"She means we can take it from here," Sabrina told him. "Thanks."

The bartender nodded weirdly. "Yeah."

The bartender walked away.

Sam sighed, turning to the twins. "Ariel, Faith, you're still learning. But it's easier to be nicer and more likely to get what you want."

"Right," Ariel agreed, nodding. "Sorry."

Sam and Octavia chuckled.

"It's okay," Catty told them. "You're learning." Castiel, Octavia and Levi looked around worriedly. "You all right?"

"No," Levi answered. "Ava, Cas, Benjamin and I, we fought together. He was... he was a gifted soldier. I don't know how this could've happened."

Sabrina found an Angel Blade. "Got something."

"Looks like we had a little Angel-on-Angel action," Ness told them.

"This isn't Benjamin's Blade," Castiel told them.

Castiel, Octavia and Levi heard something like a whispering, a form of tracking spell that was being cast on them. 

Amara frowned. "What?"

 § 

Hotel Room 

The woman sat up. "Castiel. Octavia. Levi."

 § 

Bar

Castiel, Octavia and Levi could hear the whispering. Sabrina, Ariel and Faith could hear the whispering but didn't understand it.

"What is that?" Faith asked.

"What is the whispering?" Ariel asked.

Sabrina sighed. "We need to go."

They walked out of the bar.

 § 

Hotel Room 

The woman kissed her fingertips, placing them on a picture of a little girl, grabbing her jacket, standing to leave.

 § 

Night - Wright Spot Restaurant - Outside 

The family and Levi were standing outside the restaurant.

"All right, who are we meeting?" Ariel asked.

"His name is Ishim," Castiel answered. "Before we commanded our own flight of Angels, our own battalion, we served under him with Benjamin."

"And you think he knows what's going on?" Faith asked.

"We'll find out," Levi told them. "You wait here."

"Whoa, wait," Dean told them. "Excuse me?"

"Ishim said to come alone," Octavia told them. "He doesn't like Humans, and he doesn't know Sabrina, Ariel and Faith."

They looked nervous about staying outside while they were going inside.

Levi gave Dean a sarcastic look. "If I plan to do anything else stupid, Cas and Ava can stop me."

Octavia rolled her eyes, walking inside. Castiel gave them a look, walking inside. Levi followed. 

Sabrina sighed, giving Dean a look. "Could you at least admit the real reason why you're pissed?"

"What are you talking about?" Amara asked. "Sabrina?"

"I'm a mind reader, remember, Amara?" Sabrina asked. "Uncle Dean's really pissed at himself because he's the one that called Billie, the reason that Levi had to kill her, so he thinks that if Levi gets in trouble or worse, it's because of him."

"Why would Uncle Dean be mad at himself about that?" Ariel asked.

"Probably because he thinks that if Sabrina loses Levi, he's gonna blame himself for it," Ness answered. "He blames himself for everything."

Faith looked surprised. "Oh, okay."

Dean pointed at Sabrina. "There is a reason why I don't like you doing the mind reading thing."

"Because you can't pretend to be pissed about one thing while you're actually pissed about the other?" Sam asked.

Dean didn't answer, turning away. Everyone exchanged a look.

Ariel and Faith exchanged an awkward look. "Okay."

 § 

Inside 

Octavia, Castiel and Levi joined the two Angels from earlier at a large table in the back.

"Mirabel, Ishim," Octavia told them. "Kept your vessels all this time. I'm impressed."

"We are not careless," Mirabel told them.

"But I liked the old Levi, Octavia and Castiel better," Ishim told them.

"We've been waiting," Mirabel told them. "I supposed it does take longer to get places now without our wings. You had a hand in that, correct? Although, you all do have faster means of transportation thanks to the True Hybrid, Sabrina Winchester. Octavia's newly grown daughters, Ariel and Faith Winchester."

"Now, Mirabel, some Angels think of Levi, Castiel and Octavia as heroes," Ishim told her. "After they left us. They had their own flights to command. Balthazar, Uriel. Great soldiers. Both dead now, of course. You had a hand in that, too. Octavia, you killed Uriel. Castiel, you killed Balthazar."

"They both tried to kill them, too," Levi told them. "Uriel tried to kill Cas. Ava killed Uriel to save Cas. Balthazar actually killed Ava. Cas killed Balthazar in retaliation for killing Ava."

"What about the Angels you've killed, Levi?" Ishim asked.

"I was defending myself because they came to kill me," Levi answered. "They nearly did. They would have if Sabrina Winchester hadn't saved my life."

"So it was self-defense, justice?" Ishim asked. "So, are you heroes? Are you spanners in the works? I don't know."

"We're not heroes," Castiel told them. "But sometimes doing the right thing requires sacrifices."

"True, but it just always seems that it's other Angels sacrificing for your good deeds," Ishim told them. "Their wings, their lives."

Octavia rolled her eyes. "Are you here to insult us, or talk about Benjamin?"

"Can't we do both?" Ishim asked.

"In the years since we lost our wings, two others from our flight have been murdered, like Benjamin," Mirabel explained.

"We're all that's left," Ishim told them.

"Why didn't we know about this?" Castiel asked.

"We didn't think you'd care," Mirabel answered.

Levi sighed. "Of course we care."

Castiel nodded in agreement. "Yes."

 § 

Outside 

The others were waiting. Dean was pacing.

Sabrina was waiting, clearly reading his mind. "And you're gonna storm in right... now."

They followed Dean inside.

 § 

Inside 

The family walked toward the table where Castiel, Octavia, Levi, Mirabel and Ishim sat.

"Hey," Catty told them.

"Catty," Castiel told her.

"Felt a little left out over there," Sam told them.

Ariel and Faith squeezed into the booth next to Octavia. Sam stood next to them. Ness chuckled.

Ishim looked at Octavia, Castiel and Levi. "I said to come alone."

Ishim poured two packets of sugar into his coffee.

"They're family," Octavia told them.

"Who don't listen very well," Levi told them.

Sabrina smiled.

"How you doing?" Ness asked. "I'm--"

"We know who you are, Sabrina, Catty, Sam and Dean Winchester," Mirabel told him. "Ness Singer-Winchester and Amara Winchester." She noticed Ness holding Aiden. "Aiden Winchester."

"Well, we're Ariel and Faith," Ariel told them to break the tension, pointing at Sam and Octavia. "They're daughters."

"We're aware," Mirabel told them. "Ariel and Faith Winchester."

"Check outside to see if there are others," Ishim told her, stirring his coffee.

Mirabel stood, walking out of the diner.

"We only brought ourselves," Faith told him.

"As far as you know," Ishim told them.

They frowned.

 § 

Outside - Alley

Mirabel was looking around, hearing a crash, turning around.

The woman was there. "Mirabel, right?"

The woman stabbed Mirabel in the chest before she could fight back, making her scream as she died in a flash of bright white light, letting her fall.

 § 

Inside

Ariel, Faith, Octavia, Castiel and Levi were sitting at the table across from Ishim. Sam, Dean, Ness, Amara, Sabrina and Catty stood next to them.

"Well, who wants some pie?" Dean asked.

"Sounds good," Amara told them.

"You know, when I knew Levi, Castiel and Octavia, they were soldiers," Ishim told them. "They were warriors. They were Angel's Angels. Now look how far they've fallen."

Sabrina, Amara, Ariel and Faith rolled their eyes. Catty and Ness gave Ishim a look. Dean and Sam chuckled lightly.

Ishim poured two more packets of sugar into his coffee.

"How about a little coffee with that sugar?" Sam asked.

Ishim looked at Octavia, Castiel and Levi. "No wings, no home. Just a ratty old life and poorly trained monkeys." He nodded to the family when saying 'monkeys'. He looked at Sabrina, Ariel and Faith. "And filthy half-breeds."

They were insulted and a little mad.

"Oh, well, you can go to Hell," Catty told him.

Octavia took the twins' hands to calm them down before they did something. "Ariel, Faith, it's fine."

"No, it's not," Sabrina told her.

"Sabrina, this isn't about me, Ava or Cas," Levi told her. "It's about Benjamin."

"Now that is refreshingly accurate," Ishim told them. "But since you brought a couple of extra 'family' to our little chitchat, we should go somewhere more private. I have a safe house nearby." He stood, rustling through his money. "I'll go get Mirabel. So nice to see you, old friends. Have some pie."

Ishim threw some money on the table, walking out. Sam, Dean, Ness, Amara, Catty and Sabrina sat down.

"Wow," Sam told them sarcastically. "Hell of a friend."

"Why do you let him talk to you like that?" Faith asked.

"If Ishim can help us find whoever killed Benjamin, then we have to," Castiel answered.

"Okay, yeah, look, I--I get that we need super dick there, but, I mean, come on," Dean told them.

"The Angels that we served with are being killed," Levi told them. "So we will put up with Ishim, we will put up with everything else, and so will you. We have to go."

 § 

Outside - Alley 

Ishim was looking for Mirabel, finding her dead on the ground. "Mirabel." He looked around, hearing someone approaching, seeing the woman. "You."

The woman nicked Ishim in the side with her blade, trying to stab him. Ishim backed away, trying to smite the woman. 

The woman glowed with white light but didn't die, laughing when the glow faded. "You can't smite me, Ishim. I'm not powerless anymore."

"But how--" Ishim started. Castiel, Octavia and Levi walked into the alley. "No, Castiel. Kill her, Octavia. Levi, please."

The woman turned toward them, trying to stab Levi. Levi ducked, headbutting the woman, making her back away. Octavia drew her Angel Sword, spinning it around. The woman slashed toward Octavia. Octavia raised the sword to block the move, slashing into her side. Castiel kicked the woman in the side over the wound to make her back away and drop her Angel Blade. 

Castiel, Octavia and Levi recognized the woman from another  time.

"We know you," Castiel told her.

Sam, Dean, Ness, Amara, Catty, Sabrina, Ariel and Faith walked into the alley to see the fight.

Sam, Dean, Ness, Amara and Catty took out their guns, cocking them. "Hey!"

"I don't wanna hurt you," the woman told them. "I don't want to hurt any Human or child. Just let me finish what I started."

"Yeah, not gonna happen, Patches," Sabrina told her.

Sabrina, Ariel and Faith raised their hands to fill the alley with a very bright light in an attempt to stop the woman, blinding them.

"Can't see," Catty told them. "Cas?"

"Catty?" Castiel asked. "Sow?"

"Hey," Ness told them. The woman was able to get to her car and drive away. Sabrina, Ariel and Faith started to go after them. "Wait. We'll get her."

"Did you get a plate?" Ariel asked.

"Yeah, I got it," Sabrina answered.

Faith looked at them in confusion. "Who was that?"

 § 

Church 

They took Ishim to a church, his safe house, trying to tend to the slash wound in his side.

"Ishim, let us tend to your wound," Octavia told him.

"I'm fine," Ishim told them.

"If you don't want us to heal you, that's fine," Ariel told him flippantly. "You're being a jerk anyway."

"Ishim, how is she still alive?" Castiel asked.

"Wait a second," Amara told them. "You know her?"

"Yes," Octavia answered.

"You don't owe them an explanation," Ishim told them.

"Okay, hang on now," Dean told him. "Uh, One-Eyed Willy back there wasn't trying to kill us. She was after you. So talk before she kicks in the damn door."

Castiel nodded. "Before the Apocalypse, Angels, um... well, we rarely came to Earth."

"Yeah, uh, basically never, right?" Faith asked.

"Right, except for this once," Octavia answered. "Many years ago, there was an anomaly."

"An anomaly?" Sam repeated.

"They won't understand," Ishim told them.

"Uncle Cas?" Amara asked. "Aunt Ava?"

Sabrina frowned. "Levi, what's going on?"

Faith looked at them in confusion. "Mom?"

Flashback - 1901

Orono, Maine

During the day, a group of Angels were walking through the trees into a field where they came upon a house. Ishim, Mirabel and Benjamin were all in their present day vessels, while Castiel was in a female vessel, Octavia was in a different redheaded female vessel. (actress Madelaine Petsch)

"Levi, are we all here?" Ishim asked.

"Yes," Levi answered.

"Why are we even on Earth?" Benjamin asked. "It's so wet."

"Stop complaining," Mirabel told him, a little annoyed.

"We're here because one of our fellow Angels has taken a Human wife," Ishim answered. "He's protecting her from an obsessive Demon. One that she had a daughter with."

"A Cambion?" Castiel asked. "Are you sure?"

"Father is without soul," Ishim told them. "Mother's a primate. And this child has a Human soul mixed with Demon blood. Now that's--"

"Dangerous," Mirabel finished. "Cambion are forbidden by the oldest laws in Heaven."

"We jumped down here for a kid?" Benjamin asked.

"Cambion grow up," Castiel told them. "They grow into their power and then--"

"Entire worlds die," Octavia finished.

"So we've come to set things right," Ishim told them.

They walked toward the house. The door opened. Two people stepped out, the woman, and an Angel.

"Akobel, please," the woman told him.

"Go back inside," Akobel told her. "Just..." He  whispered to the woman, who turned around, walking inside the house. Akobel looked at the Angels. "You have no business here."

"Me?" Ishim asked. "You were sent here to observe Humanity, to watch and to learn. But instead, taking up with a filthy animal, protecting a monster to be. Have you no shame?"

"Who are you to lecture me about shame?" Akobel asked. "Humans aren't animals. Most of them are good and true and... how could anyone know them and not love them?"

"Touching," Ishim told him boredly. "But we're not--"

"I know why you're here," Akobel told them, pulling out his Angel Blade, trying to fight.

Benjamin and Mirabel restrained him.

"Levi," Ishim told him.

"Akobel, Seraphim of the Sixth Choir, you have lain with a Human and are protecting a Cambion," Levi told him.

"What?" Akobel asked.

Ishim grabbed Akobel's throat to prevent him from speaking. "Continue."

"You have broken our most sacred oath," Octavia told him. "And the penalty is..." Mirabel stabbed Akobel in the chest with an Angel Blade, killing him with a bright flash of light. "Death."

"Dispose of his vessel," Ishim told them. "This next part, I'll do alone."

Ishim walked inside while we watched.

They heard the woman's voice. "No! No! Stay away from my daughter!"

When they heard a girl screaming, Octavia, Levi and Castiel flinched, while the others did not.

 § 

Now

Night - Church 

Castiel, Octavia and Levi head told the story to the rest of the family, guilty and ashamed.

Sam cleared his throat. "Cas, Ava, Levi, you, um..."

"We completed a mission," Levi told them.

"Some mission," Dean told them.

"It was horrific, but it was necessary," Castiel told them. "It was right."

"Well, you say so," Ariel told them quietly.

"And the woman?" Faith asked.

"Lily Sunder," Ishim answered. "She was a professor of Apocalyptic Literature. Studied Angels, speaks fluent Enochian. I took mercy on her by letting her live."

"And now she wants revenge," Catty told them.

Amara nodded. "Mm-hmm."

"I mean, she's got to be what, 100 years old?" Faith asked.

"No," Ness answered. "More."

"Yeah, but somehow, she's still kicking ass?" Dean asked.

"No, not somehow," Ishim told them. "I know what she's up to. She made some kind of Demonic pact. Keeps her young, keeps her strong. Keeps her immune from our powers."

"That's why Sow, Ariel and Faith's powers didn't kill her in the alley," Castiel realized.

"All right, so we'll find her," Amara told them.

"No," Catty told her. "Amara."

"Mom, she doesn't care about me, Ariel, or Faith, okay?" Sabrina asked. "She's gunning for Dad, Aunt Ava, Levi and Ishim."

"Yeah, maybe we can reason with her," Ariel told them.

"Uh, four dead Angels indicate that perhaps she is not reasonable," Levi told them. "If she has this dark power, it will take all of us to fight her." He looked at Ishim. "And we need to heal your wound."

"I'm not healing him," Faith told him. They looked at her. "What? He's mean."

Ariel nodded in agreement, pointing at Faith. "Yeah, he is."

"I, for one, agree with Ariel and Faith on that one," Amara told them. "Besides, me, my mom and dad have to get Aiden from day care."

"Wait--wait a second, guys," Dean told them. "Her family was murdered. I mean, Cas, Ava, Levi, I--I know you were just doing a job, but--"

"Are you saying that those Angels deserved to die?" Castiel asked.

"What?" Sam asked.

"You think we deserve to die?" Octavia asked.

"No, no," Sam answered. "That's not what he's saying."

"What is he saying?" Octavia asked.

"I'm saying maybe if we find her, we can explain that you're different now, you know?" Catty asked.

"Catty, that won't work," Castiel told her. "She won't quit. Think about it; would you, if it was Sabrina?"

Catty and Castiel looked at Sabrina, all of them sad.

"Cas is right," Levi told them. "It won't work."

"We have to try," Ariel told them.

"Ariel's right, and we're not asking," Sabrina told them.

Ness stood. "Okay, how about this? Sabrina, Ariel, Faith, you go check with Lily, while Amara, Dean  and I make sure that Aiden's good. Cas, Catty, you stay with Ishim."

"And if Levi's so worried about Sabrina, and Uncle Sam and Aunt Ava are so worried about Ariel and Faith, you can go with them," Amara told them.

Catty nodded. "Go. I'll stay here with Cas and douchewad."

 §

Motel Room 

Lily looked at her wound in the mirror, exhaling sharply. She was wounded by Octavia's Angel Sword, but was mostly immune to their powers. She used Angel powers to heal herself.

 §

Church 

Catty was pacing, on her phone to make sure everyone was okay.

Ishim was watching her from the couch, looking at Castiel. "The way you, Octavia and Levi let those simians talk to you... becoming their family. Castiel, when did you get so gooey? You know why we're meant to stay away from Humans? Hmm? It's not because we're a danger to them. They're a danger to us. Case in point."

"Well, my relationship with Catty and Sabrina, and our family has made me stronger," Castiel told him. "Ava is stronger with her bond with Sam, Ariel and Faith. Levi's bond with Sabrina has made them both stronger."

"You can't really believe that," Ishim told him.

Catty walked closer, hanging her phone up. "All right, Dean, Ness and Amara made sure that Aiden was passed out at the day care before they went with Sabrina, Ariel, Faith, Sam, Ava and Levi. Ava, Levi, Sabrina, Ariel and Faith could've healed you, Ishim. But they were right. You are a dick. I wouldn't heal you, either."

Castiel was slightly amused, sighing. "Catty."

Catty shrugged. "Just saying. But you wanna heal him because you're a good guy, Cas. Whatever happened in the past, I know it's because of the Angels, you know, programming you, Ava and Levi into being little good soldiers." Castiel smiled a little in relief. Catty looked at Ishim. "But you, you're still a dick. So, your wound is deep, and healing it will be painful. Good."

Castiel healed Ishim, but it weakened him. Catty rested her hands on his shoulders comfortingly.

 §

Motel - Hallway

Sabrina, Ariel and Faith brought Dean, Ness, Amara, Levi, Sam and Octavia here after they had made sure that Aiden was okay at the day care.

"You sure about this address?" Ariel asked.

"Well, Lily's car was a rental, so I called the company," Ness explained. "I told them she was wanted for questioning by the FBI. They pinged the LoJack..." Levi, Ness, Amara, Sam and Octavia looked at the blank looks on Dean, Sabrina, Ariel and Faith. "And you have no idea what I'm saying."

"Nope," Faith answered. "You could've just said yes, Aunt Ness."

Ness chuckled. "Yes."

"So, what's the plan?" Sabrina asked.

"Well, we knock on her door and ask her nicely not to kill anymore Angels," Sam answered.

"And if she says no?" Ariel asked.

"Then we burn that bridge when we come to it," Amara answered. Octavia hesitated, sighing. "Aunt Ava?"

"Back then, I was just another Angel that didn't feel anything," Octavia told them. "I did what I was told and that was it. Now..."

"You feel very bad guilt because of it," Levi finished.

"Yeah," Octavia answered. "You too?"

"Definitely," Levi answered.

"Ava, Levi, if you didn't do what you were told, they would've killed you, too," Sam pointed out.

"Doesn't make it easier," Octavia told him. "Sam, you, Catty, and Dean had to convince Cas to let another Cambion go during the Apocalypse."

Dean nodded in agreement. "Jesse Turner, yeah. And, uh, Jesse turned Cas into an action figure, but still."

"Can Ariel and Faith do that?" Amara asked.

"Well, Sow can, Amara," Ness answered.

Sabrina, Amara, Ariel and Faith smiled when they got them to feel better.

"I'm not sure if Lily would be willing to listen if she sees us," Levi told them.

"We have to try," Sabrina told them. "Don't worry, Levi, Aunt Ava. We'll protect you."

"Obviously," Ariel agreed.

"Come on," Faith told them.

They managed small smiles, turning around a corner, seeing Lily.

Lily instantly pulled out two Angel Blades.

"Whoa, whoa," Ariel told her. "Give us a second."

"How did you find me?" Lily asked.

"We're here to talk, that's it," Amara told her. "We come in peace. Just hear us out."

"We know what happened to your family," Sam told her.

"My family?" Lily repeated.

"See, Cas and Ava are our family, and Levi's our friend, so we can't let you hurt them," Sam told her.

"Let me?" Lily repeated.

"We don't wanna kill you," Faith told her.

"I don't wanna kill you," Lily told them. She looked at Octavia and Levi. "Them and the others? Different story."

"Okay, look," Dean told her. "Listen, it's not their fault that Heaven has these crazy rules about Cambion. Your daughter."

Lily started to realize. "You think..." She lowered the blades, walking closer. "Her name was May, and she was beautiful."

 §

Flashback 

Lily's House - Kitchen 

Akobel and Lily were sitting at a table while May was sitting on the floor, playing with a doll and humming.

"I find that doll disturbing," Akobel explained.

Lily smiled. "Her father gave it to her. She loves it. Let her be."

 §

Now

Night -  Motel 

Lily went on with her story, looking mainly at Octavia and Levi. "I had a life, a wonderful life, until... you took everything from me."

 §

Flashback 

Lily's House - Outside

It was the same flashback from before, but this time from Lily's perspective as she whispered to Akobel. "Akobel, please."

"Go back inside," Akobel told her. He whispered. "Take May. Run." Lily walked inisde. Akobel turned to the Angels. "You have no business here."

 §

Inside - Living Room

Lily was gathering up papers.

May walked toward her. "Mommy?"

"It's fine, sweetheart," Lily told her. "Everything is going to be fine. I promise." She heard Akobel gasp as a bright light shone outside. Lily dropped the papers, grabbing May. "Come on, come on."

 §

Now

Night - Motel - Hallway

Lily continued her story. "All my life, I dreamed about Angels. I studied them. I made them my life's work, until finally I learned the spell to summon one. Ishim."

 §

Flashback

Lily's House - Living Room 

Ishim walked into the housee, seeing Lily holding onto May.

Lily: (voice over) "When I first saw him, it was looking into the face of the Divine. I thought he was perfect. But he is a monster."

'Ishim, what have you done?" Lily asked in horror.

"Oh, what have you done?" Ishim replied. "I shared all of our secrets with you, taught you all of our ways for your precious studies. I--I loved you."

"You didn't love me," Lily told him. "You were obsessed with me. That isn't love."

Ishim walked closer angrily. "I loved you. You threw me away for him."

Ishim pointed toward the outside of the house, where they had killed Akobel.

Lily shook her head. "No. I never should've let you into my life. I needed Akobel to protect me from you."

"Well, that didn't work, did it?" Ishim asked.

"You killed him?" Lily asked in horror.

"Obviously," Ishim answered.

"And now you're going to kill me?" Lily asked.

"No," Ishim answered. "You broke my heart, Lily. Now I'm going to break yours."

Ishim used his power to push back a screaming Lily into the wall.

May was horrified. "Mommy!"

Ishim grabbed May. "You are powerless to do anything."

Lily shook her head, crying. "No."

"You. are. powerless," Ishim told them.

Lily struggled weakly but couldn't move. "No. No! Stay away from my daughter!" May screamed, as Lily had to watch Ishim kill her with his Angel Blade. "No!"

May's doll fell to the ground.

 §

Now

Night - Motel - Hallway

Lily continued her story. "I have seen Demons, yes. I have killed a few. But I had my daughter long before I ever laid eyes on a Demon."

Ness looked at her in surprise, realization, and horror. "Wait. So..."

"My daughter was Human," Lily finished. "You had no idea, did you?"

"No, I swear," Octavia answered. 

"Ishim told us that Akobel was protecting a Cambion," Levi told her.

"No," Lily answered. "Akobel was protecting me from Ishim."

Ariel, Faith, Sam, Octavia, Ness, Amara, Dean, Sabrina and Levi were all horrified and in shock. Octavia and Levi were incredibly disconcerted to learn that Ishim had fooled all of them, and had them kill Akobel for protecting an innocent Human being and her Human daughter, looking as if they could get sick.

Sam turned to them. "She's..."

"She's telling the truth," Faith answered.

Sabrina turned to get her phone. "I'm gonna call my parents. Come on. Come on. Come on. Yeah, they're not answering."

"Okay, we need to go," Amara told them. "Come on. We gotta go. Now."

"What about her?" Ariel asked, nodding to Lily. "She--"

"She is no threat whatsoever to Humans," Lily told them. "And she can hear you. Octavia, Levi, if you're telling me the truth, that you were also played by Ishim... then I won't be a threat to you, either."

"Okay," Dean told them. "Okay, let's go."

 §

Church - Outside

Sabrina, Ariel and Faith teleported everyone outside the church.

"Why didn't you just bring us in?" Amara asked.

"'Cause Ishim put Angel Warding on the walls after we left," Ariel answered. "We can see it."

"So we can't get in?" Faith asked.

"No, I can burn it away, since it doesn't ward against any other part of me," Sabrina answered, starting to use her power to burn the warding away. "By the time I'm done, we can all go in."

Ness looked at Lily hesitantly. "Can I ask you a question?"

"Yeah," Lily answered.

"I--I get wanting revenge," Ness told her. "I--I really do. But why wait so long?"

"I had no choice," Lily answered. "Before the Angels fell, before they lost their wings, there would've been no way to hunt them down. But now... patience is a talent. You'd be amazed what a person can do with a little bit of purpose and an abundance of time."

Faith nodded. "Hmm. Ishim said you made some kind of pact. Um, that you're using dark magic."

"Did he?" Lily asked. "I've studied Angels all my... very long life. I use their magic to fight, to hear them, to stay alive."

"Enochian magic," Sam told them.

"That's possible?" Ariel asked.

"It is if you're willing to pay the price of admission," Lily answered. "Every time I use one of their spells, a piece of my soul burns away. And once it's gone..."

"You won't feel anything anymore," Amara finished. "You won't, uh, care about anything anymore. You won't be Human anymore."

"I used to dream about my daughter every night," Lily told them. "Do you know what I dream about now? Nothing? You don't trust me. I understand. But Ishim will kill Castiel and Catty when they realize the truth. He's a big man in Heaven. He's got too much to lose if the truth comes out. And when they're dead, you won't stand in my way anymore. You'll help me. Because now you understand now, Octavia and Levi. Don't you? What it's like to be Human. Octavia, you even have daughters of your own. A husband willing to die for. To kill for." She looked at Levi. "Or someone to love, even if it isn't a wife."

Levi looked at Sabrina sadly. "Yeah."

"Which is why I think I can let you go," Lily told them.

Octavia and Levi looked at her in regret, sighing.

 §

Inside

Castiel and Catty were sitting together.

Ishim walked in after having left the room to put the Angel Warding up without them knowing what he was doing, coming back to do pushups. "Mm, I haven't felt this good in a millennia. Mm."

Catty rolled her eyes. "Oh, goody."

"Ah, quit your whinning," Ishim told her. "Castiel will regain his strength soon enough."

"Where's my phone?" Catty asked.

"You'll have to keep better track of your things, Catty," Ishim told her.

Sabrina was using her telepathy power to speak to Catty and Cas, allowing the others to talk to them too. "Mom? Dad? You guys okay?"

"Yeah, we're fine," Castiel answered. "And Ishim is fully recovered."

"Yeah, okay," Dean told them. "Uh, maybe wish you hadn't had done that just yet."

"Wait, why?" Catty asked.

"This Lily chick?" Ariel asked. "Says that her daughter was Human."

"I think Ishim... I think he's playing you," Faith told them.

Sam nodded. "He's playing all of us."

"He put Angel Warding up to try to keep us out, but Sabrina's burning it away as we speak," Levi explained. "We'll be inside soon."

Catty and Castiel stood.

"Is it--is it true, Ishim?" Castiel asked.

"Is what true?" Ishim asked.

"Lily Sunder's daughter, was she Human?" Castiel asked.

"Who told you that?" Ishim asked.

"She told Sam, Dean, Ness, Ava, Levi, Sow, Amara Ariel, and Faith," Castiel answered. "Sow used her power to tell us through telepathy."

"Well, she's a liar," Ishim told them.

"Why would she lie?" Castiel asked.

Ishim shrugged. "She's Human. It's kinda what they do."

"Well, if she's a liar, she's pretty good at it to fool our daughter, who can read minds," Catty told him. "You, on the other hand, kind of suck."

Ishim looked at Castiel. "Who are you gonna believe? Me, or some filthy ape who used our magic to gain power?"

"Why do her words bother you so much, Ishim?" Castiel asked.

"Who is she to question my choices?" Ishim asked. "Who is she to question yours?"

"Well, it seems that some of our choices may need to be questioned," Castiel told him. "Now tell me. The girl, was she Human?"

"Oh, you're not gonna like the answer," Ishim told him. Catty pulled out an Angel Blade. Ishim used magic to throw Catty into the wall, making her fall. Castiel punched Ishim in the face, trying to again. Ishim blocked the move, punching Castiel in the face, kicking him down, grabbing him by the jacket. "I used to envy you, Castiel. You believe that?" Castiel headbutted him. Catty cut her hand with the Angel Blade. "You survived Hell. You were chosen by God. But now look at you. You're just sad and pathetically weak." Ishim punched Cas repeatedly, until he was bloody. "So now... I'm gonna help you. I'm gonna cure you of your Human weakness the same way I cured my own." He pulled out an Angel Blade. "By cutting it out."

Ishim walked toward Catty. 

Catty slid back to reveal the Banishing Angel sigil on the floor that she had made with her blood, hovering her hand over the sigil. "Don't move."

"Do it," Ishim told her. "You blast me away, you'll blast away every Angel in the room. I'll survive. Castiel, on the other hand, he's hurt. He might live, or he might just end up a bloody smear on the wall. Roll the dice." Castiel looked toward them worriedly, but he knew that Catty wasn't going to get hurt. Catty looked at him worriedly, taking her hand away from the sigil. "Yeah. That's what I thought."

Ishim lunged for Catty, who didn't even flinch because Sabrina was behind him, pulling Ishim away from Catty, punching him in the face repeatedly. Ness, Amara, Dean, Levi, Octavia, Sam, Ariel and Faith were here with Lily. Octavia drew her Angel Sword. Lily drew her Angel Blades.

"You should know that Angel Warding wasn't going to keep the True Hybrid out long, Ishim," Lily told him.

"Hello, my love," Ishim told her.

Sam, Ness, and Dean ran to check on Catty. "Hey, hey."

Ariel and Faith ran next to Catty and Castiel to heal them.

"It's okay," Ariel told them.

"You, we'll heal," Faith told them.

Ishim slashed toward Octavia. Octavia used her Angel Sword to block the move.

"I thought you were supposed to keep her out of this," Catty told them.

"Yeah, changed our minds," Sam told her.

"Looks like we made the right call," Amara told them.

Sabrina punched Ishim in the face, kicking him in the chest. Levi used his Angel Blade to slash Ishim in the face. Sabrina and Levi used their combined power to push Ishim into the wall. Ishim pushed away from the wall, slashing toward Octavia. Octavia twisted her sword to block the move, maneuvering the sword to twist it out of his hands, catching it in her free hand, elbowing him in the face.

Ariel and Faith finished healing Catty and Castiel.

"All right, Plan B," Faith told them.

Ariel sighed. "Come on."

Ishim flipped Lily to the floor. Octavia slashed him in the arm with the Angel Sword, slashing him in the leg with his Angel Blade. Ishim caught her arm as Octavia slashed toward him again, twisting her arm to make her let go of his blade, trying to flip Octavia to the floor, but she flipped to land on her feet, holding her sword to his throat to stop him from fighting.

"It's over," Octavia told them.

Lily stood, walking closer. "No. I will never be powerless again."

Ariel raised her hand toward Ishim, using her power with a bright flash of white light to throw him across the room into the wall, pinning him there. "Bad Ishim."

Ishim chuckled in amusement. "You can't hold me here forever."

"We don't have to," Faith told him.

Ariel and Faith looked at Sabrina. "Ready?"

Sabrina nodded. "Always ready. Question is, are you? Just like me, my Dad, Levi and Aunt Ava taught you."

Ishim walked toward them. Sabrina, Ariel and Faith raised their hands toward Ishim, using a powerful flash of white light to turn him into Angelic smoke, until he vanished, dead.

Everyone looked at each other in shock.

Amara shrugged. "They held him for long enough."

 §

After the fight, they were speaking.

"All right, so, uh, what now?" Sam asked.

Levi looked at Lily. "He's dead."

"You said yourself that Mom and Levi changed for the better, and so did Uncle Cas," Ariel told her. "Because of all of them."

"And you're having that creepy second thoughts, 'I might change my mind and go after all of them again' look in your eyes," Faith told her. "Are you done?"

"Revenge is all I've had for over a hundred years," Lily told them. "It's what I am."

"Wrong answer," Dean told her. "You're done."

"Dean," Ness told him. 

Castiel looked at Lily. "I know Ava and Levi apologized to you. I'm sorry. We were wrong. And... while it's true that we didn't know we were killing an innocent, ignorance is no excuse. I truly can't imagine the depths of your loss. This was your child. You lost your family." He looked at Catty and Sabrina, who looked at him sadly. "I can't imagine the pain of losing Catty and Sabrina."

Levi nodded. "I couldn't imagine losing Sabrina." Sabrina looked at him, managing a small smile. "So if you leave here and find that you can't forgive us... I'll be waiting."

"I couldn't imagine losing Sam, Ariel and Faith," Octavia told her. "I'm more sorry than I have been about anything. I understand the need for justice and revenge."

"Thank you," Lily told them.

They were surprised when she had been willing to let them go.

Amara looked between them, sighing. "Let's go home."

 §

Lebanon, Kansas

The Bunker - Library 

The family and Levi had returned to the bunker, sitting at the tables, eating dinner. 

Ness returned to the library. "Aiden's in bed. He's down for the count."

Dean handed out beers to the adults. "You earned it."

"Well, this will do very little for me, but I--I appreciate the gesture," Levi told him.

"What Ishim said..." Catty trailed off. "You're not weak, Cas. You know that, right? None of you are."

"I mean, obviously, you've changed, but it's all been for the better," Sam told them.

"And you have been with us every step of this long, crazy thrill ride," Ness told them. "And no matter how crazy it got, you never backed down."

"And that takes real strength," Amara told them.

Octavia managed a small smile. "Thank you."

"Levi, we don't like how the whole Billie thing went down," Sabrina told him. "Okay, I know you think you were doing the right thing, but we're worried."

Ariel nodded in agreement. "Because the way you guys say it, 'cosmic consequences' have a habit of..."

"Biting us in the ass," Amara told them. Dean and Ness looked at her. "What?"

"I know they do," Levi told them. "I might have a lot of regrets about a lot of things. But I don't regret what I did to save you, even if it costs me my life."

"Don't say that, Levi," Ariel told him. "So what are you gonna do if you find Kelly and, uh, Lucifer Juniors?"

Faith nodded. "I mean, they're Nephilims, like me and Ariel... but they're also the Devil's sons. You said legends called them Antichrists."

"I... I can't imagine the power of two Archangel Nephilims," Octavia told them. "We've seen what you two can do just tonight, with the help of Sabrina. Normal Angels can't do that, Ariel, but you could."

Ness sighed. "And Lucifer's children are going to be stronger than Ariel and Faith. But, at the end of the day, it's a mother and her children."

"Ava, do you think you'll be able to..." Sam trailed off.

"No," Octavia answered. "Sam, I couldn't live if it happened to me, with Ariel and Faith. I can't do that to someone else, not again."

They nodded in understanding.

"Cas, Levi, what about you?" Dean asked.

"There was a time when I wouldn't have hesitated," Levi told them. "But now, I don't know."

"What are we gonna do?" Faith asked.

Sabrina shrugged. "Let's drink, eat, and hope we can find a better way."

Amara nodded in agreement. "Yeah."

They all continued to eat or drink.
