Heaven and Hell Knows (5th book of Winchester Girl)

Books Are Weapons

Mary's POV
We were watching the portal open. "Come on!" Dean yelled to us. We tried to run but the door closed on us. "Mae!" Kara yelled I tried to use my powers but something was blocking them. "I can't something is blocking them." I said and a high pitch noise like Castiel and Marina used and I fell in pain closing my eyes, I opened them and saw I was on plane and a cartoon was playing. "What the devil is your name?" A cartoon devil asked. "Sa-Sa-Sa-Sa-Yo-Yosemite Sam." Yosemite Sam said. "Yosemite Sam? Let's see. Ah, here it is. I could use a guy like you." The cartoon devil said. "What the hell?" I asked Ricky, in the middle row if there was Dean, Kara, and Sam. "I don't know." Ricky said. "Folks, quick word from the flight deck. We're just passing over Ilchester, then Ellicott City, on our initial descent into Baltimore." The pilot said. "Ilchester? Weren't we just there?" Kara asked. "So if you'd like to stretch your legs, now would be a good time to— Holy crap!" The pilot said. A shockwave knocked around the plane. I grabbed th oxygen mask with Ricky and saw the white light out of it. I was now in a rented car with everyone after the plane landed. "Governor O'Malley urged calm saying it's very unlikely an abandoned convent would be a target for terrorists, either foreign or homegrown." The radio announcer said. "Change the station." Dean said driving. Sam hit a button on the radio. "Hurricane Kinley, unexpectedly slamming into the Galveston area announced a successful test of the North Korean nuclear." Another radio announcer said. I leaned up and shut the radio off mad. "Guys, look." Kara and Sam said. "Don't say anything." Dean said. "It's okay. We just got to keep our heads down and hash this out, all right?" I said not wanting to deal with it right now. "Yeah, okay." Sam said. "All right, well, first things first—How did we end up on Soul Plane?" Ricky said. "Angels, maybe? I mean, you know, beaming us out of harm's way?" Kara said.  "Well, whatever. It's the least of our worries." Dean said. "We need to find Cas and Marina." Ricky said. We went to Chuck's house and we were walking and I saw Sam and Kara get hit in the head with a toilet plunger by Chuck. "Sam. Kara." He said seeing them. "Yeah!" Sam and Kara said rubbing their heads. "Hey, Chuck." Ricky said smiling. "So...you're okay?" Chuck asked them worried. "Well, our heads hurt." Kara said. "No, I mean—I mean, my—My last vision. You two went, like, full-on Vader. Your body temperatures were one-fifty. Your heart rates were two hundred. Your eyes were black." Chuck said. "Your eyes went black?" Dean and I asked. "We didn't know." Sam said. "Where's Cas and Marina?" Ricky asked. "They're dead. Or gone. The archangel smote the crap out of them. I'm sorry." Chuck said. "She can't." Sam said pissed. "You're sure? I mean, maybe they just vanished into the light or something." Dean said. "Oh, no. They, like, exploded. Like a water balloon of chunky soup." Chuck said. "He's gone!" Ricky yelled and started crying pissed. "She can't be gone." Sam growled out, what is he pissed about Marina being gone. "You got a little of angel on you." I said pointed to his face and hair. "Is that a molar?" Chuck asked. Kara took it. "It is." She said. "Do I have a molar in my hair? This has been a really stressful day." Chuck said. "Cas and Marina, you stupid bastards." Dean said. "Stupid? They were trying to help us." Kara said. "Yeah, exactly." Dean said. "So, what now?" Ricky asked. "I don't know." I said. "Oh, crap." Chuck said. "What?" Sam asked Chuck. "I can feel them." Chuck said "Thought we'd find you here. Playtime's over, Dean and Ricky. Time to come with us." Zachariah said. "You just keep your distance, asshat." I said. "You're upset." Zachariah said to Ricky and Sam. "Yeah their mates are now on the walls." I said. "Yeah. A little. You sons of bitches jump-started judgment day!" Dean said. "Maybe we let it happen. We didn't start anything. Right, Sammy and Kara? You had a chance to stop your brother and soulmate, and you all couldn't. So let's not quibble over who started what. Let's just say it was all our faults and move on. 'Cause like it or not it's Apocalypse Now. And we're back on the same team again." Zachariah said smiling. "Is that so?" Ricky asked. "You want to kill the devil and his wife. We want you to kill the devil and his wife. It's...synergy." Zachariah said. "And we're just supposed to trust you?" I asked. "Cram it with walnuts, ugly." Dean said. "This isn't a game, guys. Lucifer and Icicle are powerful in ways that defy description. We need to strike now, hard and fast—before they find their vessels." Zachariah said. "Their vessels? Lucifer and Icicle need meat suits?" Sam asked. "They're angels. Them's the rules. And when they touch down, we're talking Four Horsemen, red oceans, fiery skies, the greatest hits. You can stop then, Dean and Ricky, but you need our help." Zachariah said. "You listen to me, you two-faced douche. After what you did, we don't want jack squat from you!" I said my eyes glowing full on purple. "You listen to me, your highness! You think you all can rebel against us? As Lucifer and Icicle did?" Zachariah said. I noticed Ricky's bleeding hand. "You're bleeding." Zachariah said to Ricky confused. "Oh, yeah—a little insurance policy in case you dicks showed up." Ricky said and slammed his hand on an angel banishing sigil. "No!" The angels yelled. "Learned that from our friends Cas and Marina, you son of a bitch." Dean said. "This sucks ass." Chuck said. We got a motel and I heard a knock on the door. I looked through the peephole and saw Alison and the demon Crystal. "Hey." I said opening the door. "Thanks for leaving me." She said. "We got blasted to a plane." I said. "Oh, well Crystal here explained she didn't know what Ruby was doing." Alison said. "I didn't, she said killing Lilith and Luke would stop the devil and Icicle." Crystal said. "All is forgiven." We all said. "Thanks." She said and tossed us all hex bags. "Hex bags?" Dean asked. "Keep the angels from finding you and demons." Crystal said smiling. "How you two doing? Are you jonesing for another hit of bitch blood or what?" Dean asked Kara and Sam. "I-it's weird. Uh, tell you all the truth, we're fine. No shakes, no fever. It's like whoever... put us on that plane cleaned us right up." Kara said to us. "Supernatural methadone." Ricky said. "Yeah, we guess." Sam said. "Guys." Kara said. "It's okay. You don't have to say anything." I said. "Well, that's good. Because what can we  even say? We're sorry? We screwed up? Doesn't really do it justice, you know? Look, there's nothing we can do or say that will ever make this right." Kara said. "So why do you keep bringing it up?!" Dean yell asked. "Look, all we're saying is, why do we have to put this under a microscope? We made a mess. We clean it up. That's it." Ricky said. "All right, so, say this is just any other hunt. You know? What do we do first?" I asked, knowing I wanted this to be over. "We'd, uh, figure out where the thing is." Sam said. "All right. So we just got to find...the devil." Alison said. I was flipping through Dad's journal, Crystal was looking through my spell book to try and find and track the devil. "I hate Demeter, all the spells she highlighted are ones with plants." Crystal. "Not shocked." I said. "How would you then explain an earthquake, a hurricane, and multiple tornadoes, all at the same time, all around the globe?" A tv reporter said. "Two words. Carbon emissions." A guy said. "Yeah, right, wavy gravy." Dean said. We heard a knock, I grabbed my blade and Sam answered the door. "You okay, lady?" Sam asked. "Sam and Kara...is it really you? And you're so firm." The lady said practically feeling up Sam, I tried not laughing. "Uh, do I know you?" Sam asked. "No. But I know you. You're Sam Winchester. And you're all not what I pictured. I'm Becky. I read all about you guys. And I've even written a few, anyway, Mr. Edlund told me where you were." Becky said. "Chuck?" I asked. "He's got a message, but he's being watched. Angels. Nice change-up to the mythology, by the way. The demon and Greek stuff was getting kind of old." Becky said. "Right. Just, um...what's the message?" Ricky asked. "He had a vision. The Michael sword is on earth. The angels lost it." Becky said. "The Michael sword?" Dean asked. "Becky, does he know where it is?" Kara asked. "In a castle, on a hill made of forty-two dogs." Becky said. "Forty-two dogs?" Crystal asked. "Oddly specific number." Ricky said. "Are...you sure you got that right?" Alison asked Becky. "It doesn't make sense, but that's what he said. I memorized every word. For you and Kara." Becky said. "Um, Becky, c—uh, can you... quit touching me?" Sam said. "No. I don't understand how Kara was into Dean." Becky said. "Back off whore." Marina said and shoved out Becky and slammed the door in her face. "Mine." She growled and grabbed Sam. "Okay, Marina is now Cas." Alison said. "No, Kara is no longer with Sam so she can show her love to Sam. "Marina I know you love me but can we work on the case?" Sam asked. "Fine, but later." She said. I texted Ma and Pa to come over with Bobby. I soon heard a knock Dean answered it. "Hey, Bobby, Hades, and Persephone." Dean said. "Good to see you all in one piece." Ma said. "You weren't followed, were you?" Marina asked holding Sam's arm tighter. "You mean by angels, demons, or Sam's new superfan?" Pa said. Sam laughed until he heard Marina hiss. "You heard." Sam said. "We heard, Romeo. So...sword of Michael, huh?" Bobby said. "You think we're talking about the actual sword from the actual archangel?" Dean asked. "You better friggin' hope so." Ma said to us opening a book and we saw a bunch of naked angels. "Which one is Cas?" Ricky asked. "None of them, or me." Marina said. "That's Michael. Toughest son of a bitch they got." Bobby said pointing to a angel holding a sword. "You kidding me? Tough? That guy looks like Cate Blanchett." Dean said Micheal looked like a lady. "Well, I wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley, believe me. He commands the heavenly host. During the last big dust-up upstairs, he's the one who booted Lucifer and Icicle's asses to us. Did it with that sword." Pa said with a mad look. "So if we can find it..." Bobby trailed off. "We can kick the devil's ass all over again. All right. So, where do we start?" I asked. "Divvy up and start reading—try and make sense of Chuck's nonsense." Ma said. We opened books. "Kids? You all right?" Bobby asked Sam and Kara. "No, actually. Bobby, this is all our fault. We're sorry." Kara said sadly. "Lilith and Luke did not break the final seal. Lilith and Luke were the final seal." Sam said. "Sam Sam Kara, stop it." I said. "We killed them, and we set Lucifer and Icicle free." Kara said. "You two what?" Bobby asked. "You guys warned us about Ruby, the demon blood, but we didn't listen. We brought this on." Sam said. "In all honesty demons are bitches." Crystal said. "You're a demon." Alison asked. "Your point?" Crystal asked. "You're damn right you two didn't listen. You two were reckless and selfish and arrogant." Bobby said. "Were sorry." Kara said. "Oh, yeah? You two are sorry you two started Armageddon? This kind of thing don't get forgiven, kids. If, by some miracle, we pull this off...I want you two to lose my number. You two understand me?" Bobby said. "Bobby." Ma and Pa said. "There's an old church nearby. Maybe we'll go read some of the lore books there." Sam said and him and Kara left and Marina growled at Bobby but followed Sam and Kara. "I never would have guessed that your daddy was right." Bobby said. "Now I know the apocalypse is now, Dad was right." I said making Ricky, Crystal, and Alison laugh. "About what?" Dean asked. "About your brother and girlfriend. What John said—you save Sam and Kara or kill them. Maybe..." Bobby trailed off. "Maybe what?" I asked. "Maybe we shouldn't have tried so hard to save them." Bobby said. "Bobby." We all said shocked. "They ended the world, guys. And you all weren't strong enough to stop them proper. That's on us. I'm just saying, John was right." Bobby said, and I had to calm my breathing as my eyes flickered purple and back to brown. "Dad. It's got to be in here somewhere." Dean said looking through his bag for something. "What the hell are you talking about?" Alison asked. "Here." Dean said chucking a card at me. "I don't believe it." I said chucking. "What the hell is it?" Crystal asked. "It's a card for my Dad's lockup in upstate New York. Read it." I said showing them. "Castle Storage. 42 Rover Hill." Ma said seeing it. "Castle on a hill of forty-two dogs." Ricky said, smirking. "So you think John had the Michael sword all this time?" Bobby asked. "I don't know. I'm not sure what else Chuck could have meant." Dean said to us. "Yeah. Okay. It's good enough for me." Bobby said and he tried attacking me. "Ahh!" I yelled and teleported away from him and Ma made sure I was behind her. "I always knew you were a big, dumb, slow, dim pain in the ass, guys. But I never dreamed you were so V.I.P." A female demon said entering. "Great Meg." Pa said and I saw demon Bobby hurting Dean. "I mean, you're gonna ice the devil and his wife? You all? If I'd have known that, I'd have ripped your pretty, pretty face off ages ago." Meg said. "Ruby." Ricky said. "I see the Winchester's got another sidekick." Meg said. "Meg?" Dean asked her. "Hi. These are the days of miracle and wonder, guys. Our father and mother's among us. You know we're all dreaming again for the first time since we were human? It's heaven on earth. Or hell. We really owe your brother and soulmate a fruit basket." Meg said I grabbed a hard cover book and hit her with it. "Seriously, again with the hitting me, Sidekick." Meg growled picking me up and throwing me in a wall. "And they say books are weapons." I said. "Not very good ones." Ma said. "My god, you like the sound of your own voice." Crystal said to Meg. "But you all, on the other hand, you're the only bump in the road. So every demon—every single one—is just dying for a piece of you." Meg said. "Not me bitch." Crystal said going toward Meg who threw Crystal in the closet and locked it. "Get in line." Alison said. "Oh, I'm in the front of the line, baby. Let's ride." Meg said and kissed Dean. "What is that, peanut butter?" Dean asked "You know, your surrogate daddy's still awake screaming in there. And I want him to know how it feels slicing the life out of you." Meg said. I made my eyes glow purple and I made all the books hit her. "You Greek bitch." Meg said and I smirked. "Guess books are weapons." I said. "Bobby!" Dean yell. "Now!" Meg yelled. "Bobby! No!" Ma yelled and Bobby stabs him self in the stomach killing the demon in him. Meg grabbed me and slammed me in a wall along with the male doing it to Dean and Ricky. "No!" Sam and Kara yelled. "Heya, Sammy and Kara. You miss me? 'Cause I sure missed you." Meg said. "Meg?" Sam asked. Kara tried to hit Meg and Meg ducked causing Kara to punch me. "It's not so easy without those super-special demon powers, huh, Kara?" Meg asked and Meg hit me again. I saw Pa grab the knife out of Bobby and stab the male demon and Meg left the girls body just as Pa stabbed her. "Ow." I said holding my neck. We rushed Bobby to the hospital and Ma and Pa carried Bobby in and we ran behind them. "Need some help here!" I yelled and a nurse looked at all of us and saw my injuries. "What happened?" She asked. "He was stabbed." Alison said. "Can we get a gurney?" The nurse asked and two nurses got a gurney and Ma and Pa put him on it. "Hang on, Bobby. Hang in there. You're gonna be okay." Pa said. We all went to be with Bobby to make sure he'd be okay. "Just wait here." The nurse said. "We can't just leave him." Sam said. "Just don't move. I've got questions." The nurse said leaving us and we all nodded. "Guys, we got to go." Crystal said to Sam and Kara. "No. No way, Crystal." Kara said. "The demons heard where the sword is. We got to get to it before they do, if we're not too late already. Come on!" I said and Ma and Pa dragged Sam and Kara it was kinda funny and I got it on video. We got to Dad's lockup and we grabbed guns and I kept my blade on me never used it on an angel before and I'm curious. "I see you all told the demons where the sword is." We turned and saw Zachariah. "Oh, thank god. The angels are here." I said sarcastically. "And to think...they could have grabbed it any time they wanted. It was right in front of them." Zachariah said smirking. "What do you mean?" Kara asked confused. "We may have planted that particular piece of prophecy inside Chuck's skull, but it happened to be true. We did lose the Michael sword. We truly couldn't find it. Until now. You've just hand-delivered it to us." Zachariah said. "We don't have anything." Ricky said. "It's Dean, chuckleheads. He's the Michael sword." Zachariah said, huh well the next thing we need to know is Sam is Lucifer's vessel. "What next you'll say I'm the devil's wife." Kara whispered to me. "What, you thought you could actually kill Lucifer? You simpering wad of insecurity and self-loathing? No. You're just a human, Dean. And not much of one." Zachariah said and Dean just looked like a fish. "What do you mean, I'm the sword?" Dean asked. "You're Michael's weapon. Or, rather, his...receptacle." Zachariah said, where's an angel sigil when you need one. "I'm a vessel?" Dean asked. "You're the vessel. Michael's vessel." Zachariah said. "How? Why—why me?" Dean asked. "Because you're chosen! It's a great honor, Dean." Zachariah said. "Oh, yeah. Yeah, life as an angel condom. That's real fun. I think I'll pass, thanks." Dean said. "Joking. Always joking. Well...no more jokes." Zachariah said and then pointed to me. I made my eyes shift purple and tried to show him his worst nightmare and couldn't find anything. "Bang." Was all he said and I fell in pain and cried feeling like someone is killing me. "You son of a bitch!" Dean yelled as him and Sam kneeled by me as I cried in pain. "Keep mouthing off, I'll break more than her rib cage and legs. I am completely and utterly through screwing around. The war has begun. We don't have our general. That's bad. Now, Michael is going to take his vessel and lead the final charge against the adversary. You understand me?" Zachariah said. "How many humans die in the crossfire, huh? A million? Five, ten?" Dean asked as I just wanted to pass out. "Probably more. If Lucifer goes unchecked, you know how many die? All of them. He'll roast the planet alive." Zachariah said shrugging. "There's a reason you're telling is this instead of just nabbing me. You need my consent. Michael needs my say-so to ride around in my skin." Dean said. "Unfortunately, yes." Zachariah said rolling his eyes. "Well, there's got to be another way." Ricky said. "Just kill me already." I said in pain. "There is no other way. There must be a battle. Michael must defeat the serpent. It is written." Zachariah said. "Yeah, maybe. But, on the other hand... Eat me. The answer's no." Dean said. "Okay. How about this? Your friend Bobby—we know he's gravely injured. Say yes, and we'll heal him. Say no, he'll never walk again." Zachariah said. I glanced at them through tears. "No." Dean said. "Then how about we heal you from...stage-four stomach cancer?" Zachariah said making Kara and Sam bend over coughing blood. "No." Dean said "Then let's get really creative. Uh, let's see how... Ricky does without his lungs." Zachariah said and Ricky fell over. "Are we having fun yet? You're going to say yes, Dean." Zachariah said. "Just kill us." I said. "Kill you all? Oh, no. I'm just getting started." Zachariah said. I saw Castiel and Marina appear killing two angels. "Right on time." Ma mumbled to them. How are you..." Zachariah started. "Alive? That's a good question. How did these five end up on that airplane? Another good question. 'Cause the angels didn't do it. I think we both know the answer, don't we?" Castiel said. "I just popped out and came back when I felt like Sam needed help." Marina said smirking. "No. That's not possible." Zachariah said shocked. "It scares you. Well, it should. Now, put these people back together and go. I won't ask twice." Castiel said. Zachariah left and Ri my jumped up gasping for breath and Castiel went over to make sure he was okay and Marina did it with Sam and Ma and Pa ran over to me. "You all need to be more careful." Marina said. "Can someone get me out of this devil's trap?" Crystal asked. Kara scratches it out and I saw Alison in a ring of fire. "Dicks." She mumbled and Kara poured water on it and Alison left. "Yeah, I'm starting to get that. Your frat brothers are bigger dicks than I thought." Ricky said looking at Castiel. "We don't mean the angels. Lucifer and Icicle are circling their vessels. And once they take it, those hex bags won't be enough to protect you all." Castiel said. "What the hell was that?" I asked feeling like my chest was being burned. "An Enochian sigil. It'll hide you from every angel in creation, including Lucifer and Icicle." Marina said. "Is it supposed to feel like someone stuck a fire poker to me?" I asked. "It's just because your a demigod baby." Ma said. "What, did you just brand us with it?" Kara asked. "No. We carved it into your ribs." Marina said. "Hey, Cas, were you really dead?" Ricky asked. "Yes." Castiel said. "Then how are you back?" I asked and Castiel left. "He does that a lot." Marina said. "Yeah we can tell." Pa said. We were now at the hospital and watching Bobby scream at a doctor about never walking again it was kinda funny watching the scared doctor. "Unlikely to walk again!? Why, you snot-nosed son of a bitch! Wait till I get out of this bed! I'll use my game leg and kick your friggin' ass! Yeah, you better run!" Bobby screamed at the fleeing doctor. "Well that was funny." I said. "You all believe that yahoo?" Bobby asked. "Screw him. You'll be fine." Dean said. "So, let me ask the million-dollar question. What do we do now?" Sam said. "Well... We save as many as we can for as long as we can, I guess. It's bad. Whoever wins, heaven or hell, we're boned." Bobby said. "Mae, want to move to hell?" Ma asked. "No, I'll go there full time when the earth is dead." I said. "What if we win?" Kara asked. We all looked at her like she lost her mind. "Did that angel do more to you than cancer?" Ricky asked. "I'm serious. I mean, screw the angels and the demons and their crap apocalypse. Hell, they want to fight a war, they can find their own planet. This one's ours, and I say they get the hell off it. We take 'em all on. We kill the devil. Hell, we even kill Michael if we have to. But we do it our own damn selves." Kara said. "And how are we supposed to do all this, genius?" Crystal asked. "I got no idea. But what I do have is a GED and a give-'em-hell attitude, and I'll figure it out." Kara said. "You are nine kinds of crazy, Kara." Pa said. "It's been said." Kara said. "That's my girl." Dean said. "Listen, you stay on the mend. We'll see you in a bit." I said to Bobby and we left. We were walking to the cars and Sam looked at Dean. "You know, I was thinking, Dean—maybe we could go after the Colt." Sam said, how crazy is Sam. "Why? What difference would that make?" Dean asked. "Well, we could use it on Lucifer. I mean, Kara just said back there...." Sam trailed off. "I just said a bunch of crap for Bobby's benefit." Kara said. I got in Pa's car and he started driving. "Mae, sorry I brought up moving to hell, I know you'll fight." Ma said. "Then why do you want to hide me in hell?" I asked. "You'll find out." Pa said. I nodded still confused.

A\N:New chapter of this and now Marina is being affectionate with Sam. Also we'll see Crystal now as a good guy.
