Katie’s P.O.V
     
I can slowly feel my body giving up on me. I barely have the energy to lift my head anymore. I can feel my heart racing and my body getting weaker and weaker. The door opens but I can’t make out who or what it is for that matter. I don’t really care at this point. I’m already dying. All of a sudden, I feel a hand touch my shoulder and I try with what energy I have left to lift my head. It’s Sam and Dean.
“I’m gonna get you out of here kiddo.” Sam says as he begins to untie my hands.
“Just hang in there” Dean also says as he holds my weak body up.
Sam finally gets my untied and I fall to the ground with no strength left. My body lay like jello on the cold cement.
“Hey! hey kiddo stay with me” Sam says as he gets down to the floor and holds me in his lap.
Lilith then comes bursting through the doors and pushes Dean and Sam to the walls of the Church and holds them by their throats with her powers.
“I knew you Winchesters would come for your poor little sister. I was just waiting on when you would come busting through here.” she says rolling her eyes.
Sam and Dean are still continuing to pull away from Lilith’s grip but nothing is working. I try with any strength I had to move away from her. I tried reaching for any torture weapon I could find to use against her on the table in front of where I was tied up. Just as I was about to make a move, Lilith grabs my wrist and pushes me to the floor. She grabs the knife from my hand and stabs me in the heart three times. The last thing I see is Marissa kicking down the doors and she sees my lifeless body lying in the floor.

Marissa’s P.O.V
    I drive up the the church and i just know she's here i can feel it. I look all over the church and nothing, but just as i am about to leave i hear a ear piercing scream. I ran to the scream and it is coming from inside a locked room. I kicked in the door and right before my eyes was katie's lifeless body.
“NOO!” i scream with tears in my eyes. This can't be happening to me not after everything that has happened. I ran to her body and just cried.
“She dead get over it.” lilith says. I look up at her and i see sam and dean struggling to get out of her grip.
“LET THEM GO!” i yell out of anger.
“No they need to die.” she says like nothing happened.
“That would be hard to do when your dead Lilith.” I say
“Oh and how are you gonna do that?” she says laughing.
“I have the only weapon that can kill you.” I say with a murderous look in my eye. I pulled out Ruby's knife. She dropped them both as she smoked out of her meat suit.
I look back at katie’s lifeless body.
“Oh god i'm so sorry this happened.” i say crying my eyes out.
“Marissa i think it's time to say goodbye.” dean says sadly with tears in his eyes.
“NO! No, can we just bury her please.” i say still sitting beside her body.
“Yeah sure whatever you want kiddo.” sam says sniffling back some tears.
“Guys do you mind if i have a moment alone with her.” i ask
“sure” they both say.
“I'm so sorry katie i shouldn't have let you go. I knew lilith was out here and yet i still let you go off by yourself. This is all my fault. It should have been me not you. I am going to fix this i promise. I won't let you down again.”
“Ok i don't know how this works but here goes um, castiel or dear castiel if you're listening please it's katie shes…. She's dead and i need your help. I don't know if you still care or not but can you put anything aside and help please. I can't live without her i don't want to live without her. So if you're out there please just hear me out, i know you hate me but do this for her.” i pray.

Castiel’s P.O.V
I knew something was wrong to begin with. I had a bad feeling about this whole week. I have heard Sam and Dean’s prayers but i never responded to them. I feel so bad from keeping Katie way from them. I knew it was wrong but it was the only way to know she would stay safe, but look at her now reunited with her rightful family. I haven't checked in on her this whole week. So I get some of my brothers and sisters to help find out where she is. About thirty minutes later one of my brothers walks in.
“We can't find Katie, Castiel. She is nowhere to be found. We think she is being hidden from us and the place is completely warded.” He said not making eye contact.
“Well, you need to try harder! I need to make sure she is safe with Sam and Dean.. I can’t let them down again..” I yell towards the others.
They all scramble off again to continue with the research.
I can’t let anything happen to Katie. I raised her and made sure she had the best life any child could possibly have. She is the only family I have left, besides Sam and Dean, that hasn’t turned their back on me and left me out in the cold. I already lost her once.. I can’t lose her again.. Especially this time.. It could be for good.
I then hear a piercing sound.. I don’t know where it’s coming from.. It sounds like Dean’s voice. But I can’t quite make out who or what it is.
Just then I can hear the prayer clearly.. It’s Katie’s sister Marissa.. Strange.. I never would've thought she.. Of all people.. Would be praying to me..
“Ok i don't know how this works but here goes um, castiel or dear castiel if you're listening please it's katie shes…. She's dead and i need your help. I don't know if you still care or not but can you put anything aside and help please. I can't live without her i don't want to live without her. So if you're out there please just hear me out, i know you hate me but do this for her.” Is all I could make out of the ringing in my ears.
I need to help her.. I don’t know how Sam and Dean will react.. Considering the circumstances.. I haven’t been answering any of their prayers since the incident with Karen.
But, I don’t think the Garrison will give me the power to save Katie.I’ve made too many bad decisions for heaven itself. But I have to save my daughter.. I mean Katie.
I snap my fingers and I am instantly in an abandoned church that I’ve never even seen before. Why am I here? How did I even get in? It’s highly warded.
I hear a cry coming from the room behind me. It’s Dean.
“I know you hear me you son of a b --” Dean stops when he sees me walking towards them. His face is full of hurt and sorrow yet relief.
“I don’t know if I’m able to help Katie.. My grace.. It’s still missing.. And I’m not sure I’ll be able to get it back this t--”
Before I have a chance to finish, Dean rushes over and hugs me. I can feel him crying harder. I am not one for hugs but for some unknown reason, Dean always calms me.
“Cas, where the hell have you been?” Dean says pulling away from me.
“Yeah you scared the crap out of us.” Sam said.
“I’ve been very busy with heaven. They still can’t stand me as you can probably tell. I’m so sorry Dean..”
“It’s okay. But, we need help find Katie a nice place for her to be buried.”
“Where is she?” I say as Dean comes over and rests a gentle hand upon my shoulder.
“Over there.” Dean says and he points to Katie’s lifeless body in Marissa’s arms, who is still gripping her tightly.
“Marissa it’s time to let go.” I say as I kneel down beside her.
“I can’t.. I.. I can’t let my sister die like this.. I’d rather it be me.” Marissa says, her voice cracking.
I stand up behind her and I gently pull her away from Katie’s body. She gets up off her knees and hugs me tightly and began to sob harder, getting tears all over my coat.
I hold her tightly and rub her back to try and calm her down.
I then led her over to Sam and Dean who are slightly crying as well.
Sam holds Marissa tightly and I walk back over to Katie’s body.
I lay a hand where her heart is and her soul begins to rise from her cold body.
I hold it in my hands. Just staring at it. I feel tears welling up in my eyes. I watch as the little ball of light starts to rise from my hands and makes it way to heaven. I lay on the cold concrete with my head in my hands trying to ease the pain. Marissa falls to the ground with Sam and Dean still holding her, trying to calm her.
The room is silent and we all stand and stare at her lifeless, soulless body.
“We need to wrap her body up so we can bury it. I want her to stay up there. She needs to stay at peace.” Dean says as he walks up behind me and lays a hand on my shoulder.
2 hours later, we had found a perfect spot. Next to John and Mary Winchester.
We all stare at her grave in silence.
“I love you kiddo..” Dean says and he starts to break down and walks back towards the Impala.
