Dean put Tessa in the back of the Impala and drove back to the headquarters. Tessa stayed silent the whole way there. Talia kept giving her glances, making sure she wouldn't do anything to harm the Winchester. Her knickers dug into the cold leather seats, wishing they would all be back at the 'base' soon. Tessa was giving the Leviathan weird vibes.

Once they finally reached their destination, Dean wanted to call Sam. He exited the car and started dialing while Natalia stole a look at the Reaper once more.

"What's your deal?" the Reaper suddenly said, she was getting annoyed with the looks. The other woman looked away and bit her lip, slowly tearing away some dead skin. She glanced at Tessa once more, and then looked out the window.

"Can only human souls go to Heaven?" she asked, her gaze still stuck outside. The Reaper was not expecting this and gave Nat a questioning look.

"Only souls who are pure enough go to Heaven, I believe. If you're damned then looks like you have a one-way ticket to Hell or Purgatory." Tessa flipped her dark hair and crossed her arms.

Before anything could be said, Dean opened the car door on Tessa's side. "Say hi to Tessa, Sam." Dean pulled the woman out and dragged her towards the door.

"Your brother's a psycho, Sam," The Reaper yelled as she struggled to get away from the young Winchester. Dean chuckled and held her arm tighter.

Meanwhile, Talia was watching this happen from a distance, not wanting to get involved. Her mind was already filled with other important things, one of them dealing with Dean and his Mark of Cain. He was very violent, anyone could guess that. Talia made a mental note to keep her eyes out for him.

The woman walked towards the door and opened it, ignoring the slight protest it made. She walked aimlessly down the hall until she found yet another door, this one leading to the main room. Dean was only a few steps ahead, and Hannah, the bitch no one liked, was already confronting him.

"What are you doing?" she asked the man, his grip was steel tight on the prisoner, her face emotionless as she was being led towards the Angels.

"You want to tell her?" Dean said in a raspy tone. When the woman gave no response, dean took the upper side of Tessa's shirt and pulled it down a bit, revealing the dark blood and scratches on her skin.

Appalled, Hannah looked at the marks in shock. "Oh God."

"There's no God, there's only Castiel," Tessa counteracted the Angel's statement. She had a determined look in her eyes, something the Leviathan didn't appreciate. She quickly walked over and shoved Dean out of the way, taking his place and held onto the prisoner's jacket tightly.

"Okay you're done," she seethed and began to take her towards one of the interrogation rooms. Dean followed right beside her, keeping his gaze on the woman he met a long time ago.

Once in the hallway leading towards the rooms, Natalia took notice of the presences behind her. She rolled her eyes as the Angels caught up with them. "You wounded her," Hannah accused with a pained tone.

Talia scoffed and opened the door, leading Tessa in and pushing her into the center of the room, making her fall next to a metal table. Dean went to handle the Angels outside, leaving Talia alone with the Reaper.

Tessa was on the floor, thanks to Talia's push. She glared at the woman from the ground, but Talia just smirked at her and folded her arms.

"I hope you know that I want to take my blade and slowly drag it across your stomach, making your insides fall out. I would take each organ and wrap them around that pretty little neck of yours and choke you with it," She smiled wide, exposing her Canines. Truthfully Natalia didn't know why she hated Tessa's guts, but something just rubbed her the wrong way about the prisoner.

Before Tessa could react, the door suddenly opened, grabbing both of the women's attention. Dean walked in with a guarded look in his eyes, followed by, of course, Hannah.

Bitch please go back to Heaven. Your presence annoys the Hell out of me.

Without speaking, Dean walked towards the table in the room and gestured Tessa to sit. The woman complied. Hannah walked over to Natalia, immediately making the Purgatory woman tense up.

"Well let's start with an easy one. Who are you working for?" Dean drummed his fingers on the table and looked at Tessa with no remorse.

"Castiel," she immediately responded.

"Liar," Hannah said.

Tessa looked at her and started to laugh. "People like you, they never understand. Sacrifices have to be made."

"Do you go after one of the bad guys, and if a few humans get microwaved, no big deal, right?" The Winchester narrowed his eyes.

Tessa shook her head. "In the grand scheme, they don't matter."

"Oh, Tessa, you are so wrong."

"When Castiel came to me and told me what I had to do, he said I was chosen because I was strong. Others... they couldn't handle this. They're too weak."

This enraged both Hannah and Natalia, but Hannah was the one to move forward and try to attack. Natalia just stayed there, silently fuming, her thoughts running a marathon. Dean had taken Hannah out of the room, and it was just the two of them yet again.

Natalia stood up straight and stared at the Reaper, having no words to say. What could she say to a disrespectful piece of shit that was a total fucking liar?

Dean suddenly came back into the room, but asked the Leviathan to leave. Giving the Reaper one last glare, she left the room and started to walk down the hall. She had no destination in mind, Talia just kept on walking.

The way Tessa described Cas, it just didn't make sense to her. She could never see her Cas acting like a war driven maniac.

Talia suddenly had a pulling in her gut, telling her to go back to the interrogation room. A sudden scream confirmed her theory. Talia turned around and ran back to the room, passing by a few confused Angels on the way.

Once at her destination, she saw a bunch of Angels holding Dean down, and this combined with the words from Tessa set her off the edge. Natalia screamed and rushed forward, barreling into the Angels. She hit and hissed and clawed her way through them, trying to get to the human.

Let's just say that didn't end well for Dean and Nat.
