The entire room erupted with “hi” and “hey” and “sups” from the kids. You waved a bit at everyone. Once the room was quiet again Ida turned to you.
  “I'm going to show these kids how to heal the wings of an angelic being should they ever meet another in need of help.” She explained in one breath. You smiled, not knowing how to feel about the sudden realm of creatures. But they were kids, kids like you and Matt had once been. Like Sam and Dean, Castiel…
  “Show us your pearly whites!” Ida ordered, smiling.
  “Oh Captain my Captain!” You responded, standing up and stretching your enormous wings out. You thought it was may be the trauma getting to you, but the aura of the place made you want to smile. All the kids gasped and stared in awe at your grey wings. They were soft and almost tripled your height. Places in both wings twisted at almost impossible angles. They ached painfully, forcing you to sit down. The woman threw a sparkling dust over your wings. You whimpered as they cracked back into their correct positions. Your held your breath until it was over. Once the pain lessened you were able to sigh and relax. The woman began chanting as a bright green mist surrounded your wings. You gasped as you were filled with a warm sensation. Power flooded through you, and you lifted your wings up. Just as she finished speaking your wings erupted into a bright light. Your eyes began glowing and you beat your wings until you were high above them all. The kids loved the sight, and other kids that had wings joined you. A couple of dragons came up and pet your wings, seeing as how yours were much bigger than theirs. After a minute you dropped back onto stage and thanked Ida. She nodded.
  “Now you can go back home.” She smiled. You hugged her quickly.
  “When the time comes we'll meet again… And I'll be in your debt.” You said softly. She winked and turned around.
  “Say goodbye, kids!”
       “BYE!”
  And with that you were gone. Your vision changed to that of Lempo's house, but you could remember the journey of flying. No time had passed, yet it had. You smiled at the complexity of it all before feeling two arms encircle you.
  “You're finally home.” He smiled, kissing your hair. You wrapped your arms around him. You were joyful to be in the presence of a being who loved you, but something nagged at you. The blast had injured you almost fatally… What had happened to Castiel?
  “I felt the blast… I was scared I'd…” He gulped.
  “You didn't, I'm here…” You interrupted, looking up at him. He rolled his eyes in a light hearted manner.
  “Call me crazy, but I love you.” Lempo said, looking at you nervously. You smiled.
  “We shouldn't rush… But I appreciate everything you've done.” You responded lamely. He nodded and kissed your forehead.
  “Take your time, Tigress.” He hummed. You tucked your face into his neck and his hands instinctively squeezed your hips. You laid your hand on his shoulder and gently kissed his neck. He gasped and tilted his head back for you.
  “Remind me where the bedroom is?”
