Supernatural: Betrayal

Chapter 14

Dean and Sam turned their heads to Faith.

"What," Faith said, almost in a whisper.

"You're the key to this. You always have been," Bobby said.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean," Faith asked.

"This is the reason the angel blade didn't kill you and the reason why you could search the town for Eve when Cass couldn't. We think you're a ..." Ellen drifted off.

"Yes," Dean said impatiently.

"We think she's a Fairy," Bobby finished.

"What you mean like Tinker Bell? Faith has wings," Dean asked.

"Does it look like I have wings," Faith asked Dean, impatiently. Dean didn't answer.

"They were a race of immortal, bloodthirsty killers known for their storm to Heaven and Hell. These killers were considered abominations because they were..." Bobby drifted off.

"They were what," Faith asked impatiently.

Bobby sighed, "They were half angel and half demon."

Faith laughed, "What? You really think I'm half demon, half angel?"

"Hold on," Ellen said, "one of the characteristics of a Fairy is that they have an alternate personality which glows either in white or red. White means that they are more angel dominant and red means they are more demon dominant."

"So you think Castiel lied about giving me his own blood," Faith asked them.

"Yeah, I mean he's lied to you once, why wouldn't he lie to you again," Ash asked.

"What happened to this race of killers," Sam asked.

"Lore says that they got thrown in Purgatory," Bobby said.

"Purgatory," Dean asked.

Bobby nodded his head, "Lore also says that these killers knew how to lock the doors of Purgatory so that nothing could come through and nothing could go in," Bobby said.

"Even the souls," Sam asked.

"Well, you see that was the exception. Souls could still get through, but they couldn't come out," Bobby said.

"Who threw them in Purgatory," Dean asked.

"Archangels," Ellen answered.

"How do you kill them," Faith asked.

"No one knows. That's why the archangels stuck them in Purgatory. Heaven weapons are useless and hell tools have no effect. These killers have no way to be killed," Bobby said.

"So you're telling us that these killers can lock Purgatory up for good and have no way to be killed," Dean asked.

"Yeah," Jo said. They all turned to look at Faith.

"But how," Faith asked.

"We think that when Cass came to visit you that night when you were little, he gave you a mixture of his blood and Azazel's blood. We think this is the reason why you have a bond with him because you're more..." Ellen ended the sentence, not wanting to say the words herself.

"Because I'm more demon dominant," Faith finished for her.

"So," Sam said quickly, "how do we lock the doors?"

"Well, only the Fairies knew that. It was never recorded into any lore and they were all extinct or at least we thought they were. The only thing we can do know is go find Cass and Crowley before the damn fools crack open the door," Bobby said.

"Tell me everything about Fairies," Faith demanded.

"Also known as the Fey or the Fair Folk, they are vulnerable to Enochian warding and devil's traps. They have the powers of both angel and demon and they can pass as humans. They have graces and hell fire within them. They live off of large quantities of liquor and caffeine. Lore says that they can wipe out whole races in under a day and they show no mercy. They are the most feared creatures in this universe," Bobby finished.

"What the hell is hell fire," Dean asked.

"It's like an angel's grace, every demon has it. It runs throughout their body," Ellen said.

Faith sighed, "All right, let's go. Sam, grab the blades I have sitting on the kitchen table." Sam did as his sister told him and found three angel blades on the table.

He picked them up and brought them into the library, "Where the hell did you get these?"

"Heaven arsenal," she answered, "Dean, Sam, Bobby let's go. Each of you take a blade and watch your backs." No one argued with Faith. None of them really wanted to go and face Cass again, but they had no choice. When the four of them blinked again, they were outside an old manufacturing building. The air was wet and the ground was soaked in puddles of rain.

"Where are we," Dean asked Faith.

"Ankeny, Iowa," Faith answered.

"Alright, let's do this," Sam said. The four of them walked over to the building, angel blade in each of their hands.

"Where are all the demons," Bobby asked.

"I don't know. Usually Crowley has them stashed everywhere, but I don't sense them," Faith said. They walked in through the back door to find two hallways leading to a different part of the building. The floors were see-through metal and the walls were lined with piping. "You guys take that one," Faith said, motioning to the right one, "I'll take this one."

"No, we should stick together," Sam said.

"What are you worried about? Nothing can kill me, remember," Faith asked, walking down the left hallway.

Bobby sighed, "She'll do what she has to do. Let's go." The three of them walked down the right hallway and found themselves in front of a door. It was a heavy metal door with a stick handle. Dean quietly opened the door to find that the room was a laboratory. It was a two-story lab with white, tile walls and interrogation tools. This is where Crowley and Cashmere interrogated Eve's children. On the wall farthest from them on the first level, they saw a blood sigil in the shape of a triangle. In front of that sigil were Crowley, Cashmere, and Raphael.

Faith continued down the hallway and found herself in a storage room. She had thought that she heard chains rattling, but when she got there she found nothing. She looked around the storage room for chains, but all she found were empty glass jugs and a lot of dust. Faith heard footsteps behind her; she pulled out her blade and turned around. There stood someone she thought she would never see again.

"Hey there dear," Lucifer said. He stood in front of her wearing the same clothes as the last time she had seen him wear. Faith gasped so loudly, she thought that Sam and Dean might've heard her. She stumbled backwards until she hit the wall. He walked in front on her and smiled, "miss me?"

"You're not real," Faith said, gasping.

Lucifer smiled, "No, but I'm real in there." He gestured his hand towards Faith's head. He then moved his hand from in front of her to her neck where he began to choke her.
