Hunter

Chapter 10

"So the idjits found a stranded angel?" said Loki.

"Have you been hanging around Bobby again?" asked Harry suspiciously.

"Please, the last time I 'hung out' with Bobby he was trying to stake me with goats' blood. I picked it up from you," said Loki smugly.

"Yeah, apparently this girl Anna can hear their chatter like I can, only she has no idea why or what it is," said Harry.

"Sounds like an angel who dropped to me," said Loki.

"If she's not a dick with wings, as Dean would put it, would you like me to bring her over?" asked Harry.

"Sure! She can help me train you how to speak Enoch," said Loki sarcastically.

Loki, in a fit of boredom (or so he claimed) was teaching Harry how to speak the language of the angels alongside how to write their sigils.

"So, is that a no?"

"Find her and get her on the phone. If she's worth saving then I'll protect her," said Loki.

"Deal. Be right back," said Harry.

"Hi guys! How's it hanging?" asked Harry as he strolled into Bobby's.

"Was wondering when you would show up Monkey!" said Dean.

"Two questions. One, why the hell is a demon here trying to save an angel, and two, why are you trusting Lilith's bitch of all people?" asked Harry.

"She's an angel?" said Dean.

"Yup."

"Why can't she remember?" asked Sam.

"Self-delusion is a wonderful thing. Well that and the fact she fell on her own free will might help. Now, we have three options, cause let's face it, the angels and demons are both gunning for your ass," said Harry a little too cheerfully.

"What are they?" asked Anna.

"Option one: you get captured by demons and likely tortured for all eternity. Not fun at all, from the nightmares Dean still has. Option two: the angels nab you and kill you to keep you from going back to Heaven. Considering most are just dicks with wings, as Dean puts it, that's not a good choice either."

"And what's option three?" asked Dean.

"Option three: she talks to my brother Loki, and he puts her under his protection. Believe it or not, Loki is one of the few people who can tell Uriel to stuff his sword up his feathered ass and not get killed for it."

Seeing their incredulous looks, Harry shrugged.

"Loki outranks most angels, even Anna. He'd probably get a real laugh out of pissing them off, even indirectly."

Which was true. The main reason he was teaching Harry how to use Enoch sigils was because A, it would royally piss off any angels who came after him, and B, he was preparing him for something big.

Specifically he was preparing Harry for after he killed Lilith. Hell wasn't a nice place, and Loki didn't want his baby brother tortured into insanity. So he was telling Harry the tricks of the angels so his brother could survive until he ascended out of there.

Harry handed Anna his cell phone, and she timidly called the first number on Harry's speed dial. She was in the panic room, and everyone else was waiting to hear the verdict.

Anna finally handed back the phone.

"Your brother said that you can find him at the point where the grace fell, he wants to talk to you alone," said Anna.
