"Well where are we going?" Cas questions while squinting at me.
"We aren't going anywhere, I am going to find out some information." I tell him while emphasizing the part where this is a solo thing.
"Maybe I could help you."
"I doubt it, because you are fond of my older brothers in particular Dean, so yeah I think not." I scoff with a slight laugh as I continue walking.
"So what you are doing, your brothers don't want you to?"
"You could say that." I answer with a slight shrug.
"They don't know do they?" The angel inquires looking to me with concerned eyes.
"And neither do you, now if you could please leave me to my lonesome that would be great!" I tell him off in frustration before continuing down the road.
"Audrey I can tell that whatever it is means a lot to you and it's also connected to that darkness inside of you."
"Go on tell me how it's stupid, and reckless."
"That's not what I was going to say at all, Audrey like I said before you need to let go of the darkness. And if whatever you are planning on will help you let go then I will help you."
"Yeah sure, I don't think you would agree with what I have in mind."
"Well I'll never have an opinion unless you speak on your thoughts."
"I want to get in contact with Lucifer, or God, but you know no one has seen or heard anything from God so my options are one."
"Why do you wish to see my brother?"
"That is for me to know, now are you going to help me or not?"
"Not if you don't tell me why you want to contact Lucifer, who might I remind you tortured Sam in hell!" Cas rants in a stern tone as he follows me.
"Okay fine then I'll do it without you."
"Audrey anything having to do with my brother is very clearly evil, if you are considering working with him that is a major fall back on your good side."
"Well like I said before Cas I didn't think you would be all for it, and honestly neither am I, he's just the only person who can help me in my situation."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because he controls hell does he not?"
"Audrey I don't understand, why must you speak with him and not some demon?"
"Because he is the only one who can help me in this situation, I already told you Cas now would you please just leave me alone?!"
"What makes you think that my brother will help you in the first place?"
"I have some pretty good leverage."
"You aren't going to offer yourself are you?"
"Didn't I tell you to leave?" I spit back in frustration at the currently annoying angel.
"Audrey you have to think about this, is your soul worth whatever you need help with?"
"Yes it is Cas, now since you know way more than I would like you too, if you could keep this conversation between us then I would be forever grateful." I say in a sarcastic manner before turning to see that he is gone.
"So little miss Winchester is looking for little old me, how adorable." A man's voice startled me causing me to turn to see Lucifer.
"How did you?"
"Can't we skip past the part of how I found you, and get down to the business of why you wanted to see me?" Lucifer questions as he taps me, causing us to travel to what seems to be hell.
"I wanted to make a deal, but I know that it can't be made with any demon, so I had to come to the boss."
"I bet you this is about the boy isn't it?" The Devil taunts in more of a question.
"I want him out of hell." I state my wishes in determination.
"And what do I get in return?"
"I'll take his place."
"Wow, I'm surprised the youngest Winchester seems to have the most balls! You want to trade me your soul in hell for his?"
"One of your demons manipulated him into making the deal! It wasn't fair."
"Wasn't fair for who exactly? Because as I see it the deal was fulfilled."
"Are you going to make the trade or not?" I question my arms crossed in frustration as my eyes are locked on his.
"Or not." He simply responds before turning around to grab a glass.
"What? Why?"
"Because you see, you are technically the next best thing to your brother Sammy, meaning you are my next ride into town. So I have a better deal to propose, You let me in and I will bring back your little boy toy, hows that sound?"
"No."
"What?"
"I'm not dumb enough to risk the world over my regret, I've already hurt enough people, I don't plan on giving the devil my bones to ride around in."
"Well then I guess Grayson's poor soul will be rotting here forever."
"I'll find another way, there's always another way."
"You Winchesters with your other ways. You'll realize that there is no other way to save him, except for me, and then you will say yes." He says before tapping my shoulder making me reappear back in the hospital parking lot where Dean pulls up in the impala.
"Audrey, what are you doing out here?"
"Cas healed me so I left, how was the hunt?" I ask taking the attention off of me.
"It went smoothly, we just went and burned the guys bones. Speaking of Cas where is he?"
"I don't know actually."
"Oh well, get in we are headed back to the bunker, where your bike is, we had it towed there by a friend of ours."
"Oh thanks." I mumble as I climb into the backseat.
"No problem, how are you feeling?"
"I'm good."
"Dean!" Cas appears in the seat next to me, his eyes going wide when he notices I'm there.
"Yes Cas, are you okay?"
"Oh um yes, I'm fine."
"Okay then what is it?"
"I uh, have to go." Cas says while squinting at me before disappearing.
"Well that was weird."
"Yeah it was, I wonder what that was about." I play along as if I didn't know he was planning on telling Dean about my conversation with Lucifer.
Ive got to figure out another way, there has to be another way, there always is. I can't give myself over to him, there would be too much blood shed on my hands. But what if he's right, what if I can't find another way?
