OCEAN BED

Inside the Ma'lak box sits at the bottom of the ocean floor. There is a banging sound from the inside.
Dean is banging his hands against the box. Water leaks in from the top of the box, as he pushes his bloody hands against it. The box creaks.

"No. No!" Dean Says

Dean continues to bang his hands against the box several times.

"Lena!, Elena! Sam! Sam!" He looks at his phone. It loses its battery life, "No, no, no, no! What? Lena! Sam? Sammy? Sammy!" Dean Says

MOTEL ROOM

Dean wakes up from his nightmare, and Sam comes out from the bathroom.

"Oh, hey. Didn't mean to wake you. Sorry." Sam Says

"No, it's just a...bad dream. It's fine." Dean Says, looking at his bloody fingernails, and the scratches on the wall.

"You want to talk about it?" Sam Asks

"No, I'm–No, I'm okay." Dean Says, as Sam nods his head.

"What're you doing? Why don't you get some sleep?" Dean Says, Sam sits down on the bed opposite from him.

"You know, Dean, you don't have to act like what you're planning to do is just business as usual. I-I know you're scared." Sam Says

"Never said I wasn't scared. But it doesn't matter." Dean Says

"Doesn't matter? We know we could die, uh, doing what we do. It's always a possibility. But what you're talking about is far worse than death. Michael's an archangel. He could literally keep you buried in a coffin, alive, forever." Sam Says

"Okay. I get it. But what's the other option, huh? Michael gets outta my head and ends the world? 'Cause it's all right there in Billie's book." Dean Says, as he walks towards the bathroom.

"Yeah, but that's only if we don't find another way to take Michael off the board, and there has to be another way." Sam Says

"And what is that other way?" Sam thinks, but
says nothing, "Exactly." Dean Says

WAREHOUSE

A woman is tied and gagged to a table. She whimpers in fright. A man, Tony, picks up a bag of salt and pours it into a vat of water, picking up a large stick and mixing the salt. He picks her up from the table and carries her towards the vat.

Tony submerges her in the water. She struggles against her restraints as she sinks in. He takes out a box and opens it, picking up the knife from inside. The woman rises out of the water, and the man grabs her hands.

"Help, please! Please! No! Please! No!" She Says

Tony picks up the knife and carves a symbol in her right arm. He grabs her by her hand and dunks her head into the water. The man holds her down as she struggles in the water, bleeding from her arm. She starts to sink into the water. She dies. Tony man hears voices as he raises his arms and head up.

HOSPITAL ROOM

Nick wakes up in a hospital bed. A police officer walks into the room, carrying a tray.

"Okay, sunshine. Soup's on. And bad as the food is here? Gourmet compared to what you'll be getting' in jail, so...enjoy." He Says

The Officer puts the tray down on the table in front of Nick, he starts to leave.

"When am I getting out of here?" Nick Asks

"I'm not sure. At least four jurisdictions want to prosecute. You were a busy bee." He Says

"Yeah, what went down...none of that was my fault." Nick Says

"Right. 'Cause you were possessed by Satan." He Says

"That's real. That's a real thing, okay? He left me but...it changed me." Nick Says

The Officer walks closer to Nick, he grips the side of the bed with his cuffed hand.

"Listen, you piece of crap. You wanna say the devil made you do it, well, you stick with that. 'Cause either way, you're gonna be locked up for the rest of your life. You're done. You're buried." He Says, then leaves the room.

REST STOP

The Impala pulls into a parking lot, Dean opens the door to get out.

"Hey. Man, I-I just want to make sure that you're still with me on this thing. You're gonna see it through to the end." Dean Says

"Well, I gave you my word, didn't I?" Sam Says

"Okay, alright. Just, you know, after what you said last night, I-I-I don't need you, Elena and Mom coming up with some way to stop me." Dean Says

"You know, Mom hates this. I hate this..and Elena..she hated it so much.." Sam Says

"Yeah, I know..she left." Dean Says

"She needed some space, and what about Cas and Jack, you haven't even told them." Sam Says

"Okay, well, yeah, that's because I'm not good with the whole big goodbyes, alright? I-I-I don't need to get shaky on this thing." Dean Says

"Wouldn't be the worst thing." Sam Says

"You know what Michael wants to do, you know that this will stop it, and you know that there's no other way. So, just put the end of this trip outta your head, okay?" Dean Says

Dean leaves the Impala as Sam watches him walk to the restroom. He takes out his phone and dials.

BUNKER LIBRARY

Castiel picks up his phone and sits down at the table, books in front of him.

"Sam." Castiel Says

"Cas." Sam Says

"Were you able to talk him out of it?" Castiel Asks

"No. So I'm counting on you. Uh, any luck?" Sam Says

"I-I did as you asked. I've-I've looked for any possible way to forcibly extract Michael and destroy him. But so far, nothing." Castiel Says

"And what about Rowena?" Sam Asks

"She went through the entire Book of the Damned and found nothing. And I told her to do it again, see if she missed something, and uh..well, the woman has a remarkable command of profanity." Castiel Says

"Alright, thanks. Uh, keep going." Sam Says

"Sam. Maybe if I spoke with Dean..." Castiel Says

"It wouldn't matter. Believe me, I-I I've never seen him like this. He won't listen to me. H-He just – No. If we don't find some way..Dean's gone." Sam Says

WAREHOUSE

A car is parked outside in the rain. Tony watches another man, Alan leave the building. He gets out of the car and follows Alan. Tony drags Alan into the room, gagged and tied up. He lays him on a plastic tarp, as he puts on latex gloves.

"For I will strike down the firstborn in the land of Egypt..." Tony Says

"What are you doing?" Alan Asked

Tony takes out the knife from the box, and kicks Alan to lie on his back. He sits on top of Alan with the knife in his hand.

"And against all the Gods of Egypt, I will execute judgement." Tony Says

"You don't have to do this. No, please, no!" Alan Says

Tony slits Alan's throat. He dies. Tony opens Alan's shirt and carves something into his chest. Thunder cracks outside, as Tony hears voices.

"I am the Lord."

IMPALA

The Impala drives down the highway, a trailer attached with the Ma'lak box on it. Dean sees visions of the door in his head shaking, Michael screaming. Dean shakes his head, he sees Sam looking at his iPad.

"You ever think about when we were kids?" Dean Asks

"Maybe. Yeah, sure. Sometimes. W-Why?" Sam Says

"I know I wasn't always the greatest brother to you." Dean Says

"Dean, you were the one who was always there for me. The only one. I mean, you practically raised me." Sam Says

"I know things got dicey...you know, with dad...the way he was. And I just...I didn't always look out for you the way that I should've. I mean, I had my own stuff, you know. In order to keep the peace, it probably looked like I took his side quite a bit. Sometimes when I was...when I was away, you know it wasn't 'cause I just ran out, right? Dad would... he would send me away when I really pissed him off. I think you knew that." Dean Says

"Man, I left that behind a long time ago. I had to. And if we're gonna get through this, I-I have to do like you said and... try and keep my mind off of where we're going. So, if we could not have conversations that sound like..deathbed apologies,
I would really appreciate it." Sam Says

"Right. Yeah." Dean Says

HOSPITAL ROOM

The Officer watches Nick from a crack in the door? In the room Nick is looking up at the ceiling.

"Answer me. Answer me. You owe me that." Nick Says, as the officer walks in.

"I think God's pretty done with you. Why would you even bother praying to him?" He Says

"I wouldn't." He lifts up his cuffed hand, "Could you do me a solid? I have to use the can." Nick Says

The Officer picks up a bed-pan and puts it on the bed.

"Oh, come on. Seriously? Come on, man, give me a little bit of... a little dignity. I got, uh-I got, uh, cuffs. I got a bum leg. What the heck am I gonna do?" The Officer sighed, then walked over to him, "Thank you." Nick Says

"You know the drill. Hands behind your back." He Says

"Yeah." Nick Says

Nick gets up from the bed, as the Officer steps behind him. He opens the cuffs. Nick headbutts him in the face. He picks up the bed-pan and strikes the Officer in the face, knocking him out.

He stands above him and kicks him repeatedly in the face. Nick picks up the keys to cuffs and unlocks them. He takes out his bag of clothes, drops the cuffs on the Officer's body, and limps out of the room.

IMPALA

The Impala continues to drive down the highway,
Sam has a police report open on his iPad.

"Listen, I, uh–I'm pretty sure I found a case." Sam Says

"A case?" Dean Says

"Yeah." Sam Says

"You know this trip isn't about finding a case." Dean Says

"I know, I know, but–but it's on the way–uh, Fort Dodge, Iowa. And if we can help, then shouldn't we?" Sam Says

"It's on the way. Maybe. Yeah. One last case for the Winchester boys." Dean Says

"Don't–you have to go there. Okay, j-just...there have been at least two murders. Uh, one was just tonight, and the police reports say, a couple days ago, a woman drowned in uh, bloody, red salt water." Sam Says

"Like seawater?" Dean Says

"Yeah, except there's no sea around here. And then, tonight, a guy had his throat slit. Both bodies were dumped in alleys. The murders happened somewhere else. And both vics had graffiti
carved in them." Sam Says

"Graffiti?" Dean Says

"That's what the cops said. But, uh...it wasn't graffiti." Sam turns the iPad to Dean, there is an image of someone's chest, with bloody carvings on it.

"Enochian." Dean Says

"Yeah." Sam Says

______________________________

HOUSE

A man, Eddie cracks open the door. Sam and Dean are outside, dressed in their FBI suits.

"Yeah?" Eddie Says

"Uh, sir, FBI. We're here to talk to you about your brother, Alan." Sam Say, as they show him their badges, then Eddie opens the door wider.

"Oh. Well, definitely brothers." Dean Says

"Uh, Alan was my twin. I'm Eddie." He Says

Eddie sits on the couch, as Sam and Dean sit on chairs across from him.

"I can't believe he's gone. We were close. Best friends. Alan always said he was my big brother, 'cause he was born first. By, like, four minutes. Losing him is like losing a part of myself. I never knew it could be this bad." Eddie Says

"Cops said your brother was connected to, uh, another victim." Dean Says

"Yeah, I-I know. Uh... They both had that graffiti carved in them. What kind of monster does that?" Eddie Says

"Actually, it wasn't, um... it wasn't graffiti. It was, uh... it was an ancient language. It meant, um, "I am the Word." Sam Says, he shows Eddie the Enochian script.

"What?" Eddie Says

"Was your brother a very religious man?" Dean Asks

"No. Not really." Eddie Says

"Did he know anyone who was?" Sam Asks

"Well, I mean, most of the people we know, uh, they're church on Easter types...except-" Eddie Says

"Except what?" Dean Says

"There's this guy, Tony Alvarez. Him and Alan were friends. He was always quoting stuff that sounded like it came from the Bible. Can I see that paper again?" Eddie Says

"Of course." Sam Says

Sam gives Eddie the paper, he looks down at it before he stands up. He looks at a picture of his brother and Tony.

"This is Tony... before he got too weird. There, on his arm." Eddie Says

Eddie hands Sam the frame. The inscription is written on Tony's arm in the photo.

"It's Enochian. It means "the Word." Sam Says

A few moments later Sam and Dean are seen leaving the house.

"A killer who reads and writes Enochian?" Dean Says

"M-Maybe some kind of screwed up angel? I suppose Tony could've said yes and gotten possessed, but there aren't that many angels around anymore." Sam Says

"Well, no, angels aren't the only ones who know Enochian." Dean Says

THE BUNKER

Castiel's phone rings, on the screen it reads Dean and he quickly answers it.

"Dean! It's so good to hear from you." Castiel Says

Dean is leaning against the Impala, as Sam is sitting in the passenger seat, the door opened.

"Oh. Well. good. Uh, listen Cas. Uh, Sam and I are working this case." Dean Says

"You're working a case? That is so good to hear. So, I assume that means you're not going through with it, because I have to say, Dean, this plan of yours, it was born of – of desperation, not reason." Castiel Says

"My plan?" Dean looks down at Sam

"I-I know that I'm not suppose to know what I know, but..." Castiel Says

"Look, I'm fine with my plan, okay? We can talk about my plan later." Dean Says

"Dean. You are making a terrible mistake." Castiel Says

"Does the name "Tony Alvarez" mean anything to you?" Dean Asks

"Y-Yes." Castiel Says

"Say more." Dean Says

"Antonio Alvarez is–is next in line to be prophet when Donatello dies." Castiel Says

"Okay. Thanks Cas." Dean Says

"Wait, Dean, Dean. We need to have a conversation." Castiel Says

"Look, I really got to handle this right now, okay? So, thank you, and uh...it's good to hear your voice." Dean Says

"Dean?" Castiel Says

HOUSE

Dean ends the call, then he looks at Sam. "Really?"

"Dean, it's Cas. I had to tell him." Sam Says

"Well, it turns out that Alan's friend Tony, is a killer prophet. How's that even possible?" Dean Says

"I guess anyone can be a prophet, right? Not like there's a-a background check or anything." Sam Says

"Yeah, but before one reveals itself, the previous one has to die. So does that mean Donatello's dead?" Dean Says

HOSPITAL ROOM

Machines are beeping, Donatello is lying in bed, a tube across his mouth.
