The suivant morning.
Meg lay with her head on Cas chest, when the car started vibrated. “Cas” she whispered. “Cas, wake up. There’s someone in the car”
Cas opened his eyes and saw a silhouette. He quietly gave Meg his chemise and he put on his trousers. “Dean?” he asked, though he knew it wasn’t Dean.
“No” the driver replied.
“Kevin!” Meg panted. “What are toi doing? Are toi going to try and kill us again?”
“No” Kevin answered. “Listen, I’m sorry for trying to kill you, but I promise I had good reason. Crowley had to think I was on his side. Ever wondered why I didn’t hit toi in the head ou the heart?”
“Where are toi taking us?” Cas wanted to know.
“To the tablets” Kevin said. “Well, not directly. They’re guarded par demons and hellhounds and other things”
“And how are we supposed to get them?” Meg asked snappy.
“Have toi ever seen the Saw series?” Kevin asked.
“Yes” Meg answered. “No” Cas replied at the same time.
“It’s a little like that” Kevin continued vaguely. He parked the Impala in front of an abandoned building. “When toi open the door, toi will find two bags. toi each take one of them. toi will also see two doors. That’s where toi have to divisé, split up. There’s not enough time to stay together. I can only keep Crowley away for so long”
“Why can’t toi just use your Angel powers to get the tablets” Meg asked confused.
“I’m the one who set the traps” Kevin explained. “Crowley expects me to take toi here, and he expects toi won’t make it through the maze. Don’t let him be right. toi have to be out before Crowley returns, for he will kill toi himself”
“Oh, so, no pressure there” Meg scoffed.
“Now, listen careful” Kevin said. “In every room toi will find a message on where toi can find the tablet”
He stepped out of the car and opened the door to the backseat. Cas and Meg stepped out unwillingly. “Start walking” he ordered. Cas and Meg walked to the door and Cas opened it.
“Go on” Kevin a dit and he pushed Cas inside, Meg being next. Kevin closed the door and locked it. Meg slowly looked around the room and saw the bags. She poked Cas and pointed at the bags. Cas walked to them and picked them up, handing one to Meg.
“You think it’s wise to divisé, split up?” Cas asked.
“No” Meg shook her head. “This is Kevin. He’s tried to kill me three times. I don’t trust him”
“Ssshhh” Cas hissed.
“What?” Meg hissed back.
“You hear that?” Cas whispered.
“What?” Meg asked nervous.
“Growling” Cas answered. They listened carefully and could hear clear growling and claws scraping over the floor.
“Hellhounds” Meg realized as she saw long, white lines appearing on the floor. She put her hand on the latch of the door on the right side, while Cas did the same on the door on the right. “I’ll see toi outside”
They opened the doors at the same time, entered the suivant room and shut the door, just in time to avoid the claws and canines of the hellhounds.
Meg lay with her head on Cas chest, when the car started vibrated. “Cas” she whispered. “Cas, wake up. There’s someone in the car”

The first witness was the mother of the seven an old boy Cas had healed from a life threatening fever.
“I went to the cuisine and when I came back Mr. Allen, as he presented himself, had his hands all over my son. I…I think he was taking advantage of my son’s weakness”
“Objection!” Craig said. “I think everyone in château Rock knows about my client’s special abilities? Castiel can heal people with his bare hands, which is why Mrs. Jones had him come over in the first place. But to do his job he needs to touch his patient. He doesn’t even charge them”
“Of course he wouldn’t” Evan Trumble, Daphne’s attorney, said. “That’s because he knows that what he’s doing is wrong”
While Craig and Evan where quibbling, Cas looked sharp at Mrs. Jones.
“I never touched your son and toi know it. I saved your son and this is not the right way to thank me”
Mrs. Jones seemed to cringe and looked around to find support ou a way out.

Night fell and Meg was playing with her phone. She had gotten so used to the sound of wings, she didn’t bother to look up when Balthazar and Anna appeared.
“We just heard Castiel’s trial’s tomorrow, which is very unusual” Balthazar said. “Whatever Crowley’s up to, it’ll happen tomorrow”
Meg shrugged. Why did everyone expect her to care?
“That means you’ll have to be prepared” Anna a dit sharp.
Meg stopped playing games with her phone.
“We’re getting toi out tonight” Anna said.
Meg looked up, happy as a child. “Finally” she said.
Balthazar conjured his sword, but then a bright light shone from somewhere ahead of them.
“Oh no” Meg said. “Oh no no no no no no!”
That didn’t exactly help, because an instant later both Balthazar and Anna were gone.
Meg sunk to the bottom of her cell.
“Great” she a dit grumpy. “Juuuust great”

Sam and Cas were at a motel in Colombia Falls, while Dean and Jo were outside. They were in front of the car and Dean had opened the hood. He was maintaining the Impala while Jo watched him.
“Can I help?” Jo offered.
“No” Dean a dit sharp. Jo gave him a strange look. “Not because you’re a girl. I’m sure toi know how to fix a car. It’s personal, really”
“I get it” Jo said. “This is your baby. It’s hard to let go”
“Exactly” Dean said, glad Jo got the picture so quickly. He wiped his hands off a cloth and shut the hood. “I think we’re done here” He turned around. “Let’s get those two monkeys on their feet. We’re leaving town”
It happened in a flash. One moment Dean was standing on his two feet, the suivant he crashed against the car and fell on the ground.
“Dean!” Jo exclaimed. She bent on her knees and noticed blood coming out of his side.
“Can I help?” Jo offered.
“No” Dean a dit sharp. Jo gave him a strange look. “Not because you’re a girl. I’m sure toi know how to fix a car. It’s personal, really”
