A Face From The Past. // Jane & Castiel //

"Well no. He's helping us because he's our friend." She wondered how you would become friends with an angel. She couldn't imagine angel's interfering with the lives of humans often. Jane also wondered what the war in heaven was about. She didn't get most of this. "How'd you end up becoming friends with an angel? I assume that doesn't happen very often." She said thoughtfully. Thinking it to be an odd thing. "And although there are still plenty of monsters out there, we fortunately convinced him to return the souls he stole so the monsters that he used as power all returned to purgatory...eventually." What did that mean, eventually? "Why didn't your angel friend help us in that mess when we were at the warehouse full of demons?"

"-and now we're back to doing what we do best. And that's what we've been up to." Jane wondered why they had been separated for a while. Had there been a fight? Jane saw something in Sam's eyes that made her not want to push any further. "I never really got back into the swing of a normal life after meeting you guys. I couldn't really keep a hold on my job after I went back to work. And i kind of just dropped everything and started moving around." She said with a shrug. "Looking for odd things, like this." She puffed out with a shrug.

Castiel watched as Dean summoned the demon, waiting at the ready, encase something bad happened. Such as Crowley or someone else popping up. It was a normal, low level demon. He hissed out "Winchester." Castiel glanced at Dean as he spoke to the demon, explaining to him what was going to happen if he didn't talk. Hopefully he had some information about what was going on with this case. It was definitely strange. They had to figure out what was going on.


[apologies for shitty post, and how long it took to make said shitty post.]

Jane was torn about the fact that she hadn't been able to get back to her normal life. She really didn't have friends back home, nor family. She had a steady job as a private trainer. She was spending most of her time at bars, picking up guys or girls at any opportunity she could. She didn't really have a place back home. She had a hard time making friends. She had often gotten into fights. Living on the road was different. She didn't have to worry about being social with anyone unless she wanted to. Jane could just up and leave anytime she wanted to. The amateur hunter had been doing a lot of research since she had set off. She had also s0ld her car and bought her nice motorcycle. The nice thing about it was it was freeing, but the bad thing was she had to deal with not being able to sleep in it if she needed to. She didn't dislike this life. She didn't really like it either. Being distant from her family made it easy. And her boss hadn't questioned her quitting. Maybe he had expected it to happy sooner or later? It sort of helped that she felt like she didn't belong any place. She wondered if the Winchester's felt like that. Probably. "Jane, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I should have told you to get out of there. Or escorted you out myself before looking for Dean." Jane rolled her eyes at this, not to be unkind though, "It's not your fault. I probably would've followed you because I was freaked out anyway, or I'm sure Meg could've used another person to sacrifice. I'd be one of the dead ones without you." She let him continue. "and this case...well, sulfur means demons...so if you don't want to help, I completely understand. I can do this myself." Jane snorted, "Dude, I want in. I'm good. I promise."

Castiel waited patiently, staring at the demon with hate. Hoping they could easily get the information out of this low level demon. "The last time I heard of an angel and demon working together was when Hot Wings over there-" Castiel clenched his jaw at this comment, but when the comment continued, anger made the angel step forward with malice in his mind. Dean caught him before he could do anything to the demon. "Don't let him get to you." With narrowed eyes, and a cold gaze at the demon, Castiel relaxed slightly. Letting Dean take the lead as usual. He watched as Dean went to get a chair from the kitchen and he tied the demon down, who struggled against his bounds. He sliced his cheek. "keeping your personal opinions about angels to yourself, let's try this again. Give me ONE reason it might happen, even if you think it hasn't." As he was cutting the demons cheek Castiel reached for Dean's bag of stuff, and pulled out a flask of holy water. He opened it and tossed some on the demon. Its flakes of water sizzled on the demons skin, leaving more burns, and pain for the demon. Castiel stood with a unemotional face.

"Okay let's go," Jane got out of the car and stretched a little, and followed Sam inside. Following his lead as much as she could. She wanted to learn something here.

~~

Castiel was listening intently, he glanced toward Dean when the demon asked to tell him what he knew. He was suspicious, but didn't really comment, knowing that Dean could handle the situation easily. He was use to this sort of situation. Cas trusted Dean's judgement in what he could tell this demon. "well it looks enochian to me. So maybe"- Something happened, before he knew what he was doing, the angel jumped forward and had stabbed the demon before he could finish what he was saying. Confusion filled him wondering why he had done this. They had needed the information to continue their investigation. "Cas... what..." Castiel was just as lost as he was. "I don't.." He stopped, looking at the body. Was there a reason he had done this? Was he protecting some information about a prophet that he didn't even realize? That was the only thing that make sense to him. "I don't understand."

Jane followed Sam feeling slightly intimidated. She looked around as they walked. . "Agent Hicks. Here to see the two bodies that were found in the woods and just brought in." Jane let Sam do all the talking. Waiting for a cue from him if he wanted her to say something. "Who's that?" The coroner asked. She kept a straight face, letting Sam answer again. "Trainee. We're taking them out into the field before their final exams at Quantico." "Good luck." Said the man and he walked out. As Sam locked the door, Jane let out a breath, unaware that she had been holding it. "Where the hell is Quantico?" she asked, not very loudly, but in an amused tone. She was grabbing gloves that were on the wall, and she handed Sam a pair. "What now?" She asked, looking at the body.

~~

Castiel was still trying to figure out what the hell happened. "What the hell man?" The angel didn't have an answer for that. He pulled out the angel blade from the body, and looked down at it. He could feel Dean's look burning into him. ..we're kind of stuck in the middle." Castiel was wondering if he believed him when he pretty much said he didn't know what had just happened. He didn't want to say anything that might make Dean any more upset then he already was. "I'm sure they'll figure out something."

"Virgina. It's FBI headquarters basically." Said Sam. That was something she should probably know. How did they keep it up? What if they ran into someone else from the FBI by accident. She would be over paranoid from that. Jane pulled on her gloves too. Looking at the body curiously. The woman didn't have markings on the chest like the person she found did. That was weird. She looked at the eyes, wondering what caused that. She looked at the burnt eyes, feeling a little shiver go down her spine. She glanced over at Sam who was at the next body, who was also missing the markings, "Huh." Said Sam. "There's no markings." she said pointing out the obvious. "Do you know what the markings on the other body meant?" She asked curiously. These people didn't really look hurt other than the eyes. She wondered how burned eyes would kill you. Yes it wouldn't be pleasant, but shouldn't you still live?

Castiel let Dean decide what they were going to do. "I don't know, wait for Sam to call I guess." It was really bothering Cas, what had happened. It didn't make sense and he didn't understand it. There had to be a good reason for it right? But why would he interfere with the investigation they were trying to have. Cas wanted to know why this happened. It didn't really look like a demon versus angel fight. Mostly the angels left the humans alive. At least that was the right thing to do. "Maybe it was rogue angels?" He suggested in a thoughtful tone, not as if he was talking to Dean, just that he was thinking out loud. Jimmy use to do that a lot from what he had learned about him.
