Sam was the first to make a move. He stumbled towards his mother and siblings as they started to do the same. He hugged Lexi first, holding her small frame tight. The young girl had only thought Sam was dead for less than an hour, but seeing him again caused a huge wash of relief brush over her. It was like she could finally breathe again.

He pulled out of the embrace with Lexi and was quickly pulled into another with Mary. But the embrace didn't last long as Dean approached.

"Sam?" He uttered, his wide eyes staring at his brother. "What happened?"

Sam pulled out of the embrace and turned to Dean. He swallowed a lump in his throat and glanced down. "He, uh..." He motioned to Lucifer, "He brought me back."

The Devil grinned as the group all looked to him. He held his hands together in front of him and casually shrugged, "It's what I do." He replied, as if he were such a Saint.

"It is not what you do." Cas bluntly snapped. "How did you get in here?"

"VIP pass. I'm with the band." Lucifer joked.

Everyone stared at Lucifer with clear displeasure and an unimpressed glare.

"Come on." He wined like a child, "Shouldn't you be thanking me? I gave Sammy an extra life. Besides, with my little bro here being a hot mess," He motioned to the man that Lexi was unfamiliar with, "I figured you'd need me. So I'm here to join the team."

Little bro? The gears turned in Lexi's head as she connected the puzzle pieces. The unfamiliar man was an archangel. But he couldn't be Michael, he could be Rafael but based on his short height and messy hair, Lexi knew he had to be Gabriel. He was everything Sam and Dean had described him to be. Small, curly looking, the type to ruin your life just for shits and giggles. Definitely Gabriel.

Lucifer moved towards Jack. "Your name is Jack." He stated, his voice softer.

"And yours is Lucifer." Jack replied, staring at him with a mix of emotions.

Lexi felt the bubble of anger in her and she couldn't allow this to happen. "No." She snapped, storming towards to where Lucifer and Jack stood, "No way. Don't you dare talk to him," She pointed at Lucifer as she now stood a couple feet in front of him. "Jack, don't listen to him." She turned to the boy and spoke in a much more gentle tone.

"Don't you think that's his choice?" Lucifer tilted his head at the small girl.

She bit her tongue to stop herself from saying anything that might set Lucifer off. She didn't fear him, she knew what he could do but she knew he wouldn't make a move while her brothers were there. However, the way he was making her seem like the villain against Jack made her want to punch his smug face. But she didn't.
