Chapter 70: This Table's on Fiiiire
When we got back to the bunker the table was, yet again, on fire. This time, however, there were chunks of charred bread and plastic bag everywhere. Joe had apparently arrived and was hitting the flames with a fly swatter.
"WHY ARENT YOU USING THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER?" Mikey shouted.
"I DON'T KNOW WHERE ANYTHING IS I JUST GOT HERE," Joe shouted back, "ALL I COULD FIND WAS A FLY SWATTER!"
"I JUST WANTED SOME TOAST," wailed Lucy.
"Malum ignem ad tuos ire cupiebas locus," Alfie said. The flames disappeared.
"HOW'D HE DO THAT?" yelled Joe.
"Magic," Alfie said.
"Are Sam, Dean, Charlie and Ethan still gone?" Marcey asked.
"Yeah," AJ said, "Maria is that your blood on your shirt?"
"No the hell hound I killed," I said, "I'm going to go take a shower and burn the shirt."
"You could just throw it away," said Mikey.
"Yeah but what fun would that be?"
:::Time skip brought to you by purple and yellow flowers:::
I woke up at about 2 am to a loud explosion. Great. Lucy wants more toast.
I climbed out of bed and went to the library to put out the fire that caused the explosion. I was about to round the corner when I heard what sounded like two grown men arguing. I paused. I hadn't noticed Sam and Dean come back yet. The voices didn't sound like Sam or Dean either. There were strangers in The Bunker and I had left my gun upstairs. I could hear rustling of papers. I pearled around the cabinet in front of me. I recognized one of them as Eldon Stein the guy who ripped his arm off to escape The Bunker and then tried to kill Charlie. They were taking the books off the shelves and throwing them into a pile. Well Eldon was. The other guy, who looked a bit younger, maybe high school age, was trying to read a book.
"Hey no reading this isn't a library!" Eldon snatched away the book.
There was a cabinet in front of me. I need a weapon. I searched through the cabinet as quietly as I could. I pulled out a dagger made out of what might've been gold, but I couldn't really tell it was dark. That's not good enough. I dug through the contents as quietly as possible. There weren't any guns or even swords. There were definitely at least two enemies out there, possibly more, and I would have to get close to them to use a dagger. I don't have any backup, so it's two against one and they might even have guns. I thought about going upstairs to get a better weapon or some help but then they might see or hear me and I would lose the element of surprise, which was the only thing I had in my favor, and then I wouldn't be able to get the other weapon or help. I have to do this on my own.
"Actually it kinda is," I heard the kid say.
They were practically invincible last time. All I have is a dagger.
I decided to try one more thing.
"Gabriel?" I whispered, barely audible. "C'mon it's me Maria I could really use your help? . . . . Cas? Someone broke into the Bunker . . . Marcey? AJ? Lucy? Joe? Mikey? Does this work when you're asleep? There's someone inside . . . Guys this isn't a dream and I'm being completely serious." There was no response. I sat there for a few more minutes.
I sighed. There was one other option. I didn't want to. It was a last resort. Screw it and deal with the consequences later. "This is Maria. I am in the Bunker. There are two serial killers in here and I'm about to face them alone with a gold dagger. I haven't prayed to anyone up there in a long time but this is urgent." No one came. "There's powerful magic in here and they want to take it. Please help." I waited. No angels appeared. Figures.
"Put it in the box or burn it," said Eldon. I heard a few footsteps in my direction. "I'm gonna go check out their sex dungeon."
Now or never. I jumped out and lunged at Eldon with the dagger. He was faster than me. He dodged the attack. He came back to attack me. I slashed at him with the knife, but he knocked me over.
"Stop!" Strangely enough the other guy, the kid he brought with him, tried to pull him away from me, and was sent flying backwards with a kick to the stomach from Eldon.
"She's trying to kill us you little shi-" white light blazed out of Eldon's eyes he fell to the ground and, someone, presumably an angel, was standing in front of me. She turned to the other intruder.
"Please don't! I'm sorry look I don't want to be here please don't kill me!"
"Dude you broke into our batcave!" I yelled at him.
"No I-I my cousin dragged me along!"
"Who are you?" I asked.
"Cyrus Stein. I-I really really don't want to die!"
I hesitated. He did brake into The Bunker but he hadn't tried to kill me. He actually just tried to save me from his own cousin. "Don't stab him."
"Why?" asked the angel.
"We can hold him for information and such. He's mostly human and not an immediate threat to anyone."
"I don't agree with this," She said.
"Do I get a vote?" asked Cyrus.
"No this isn't a democracy it's a dictatorship," I said, "Cyrus goes to the dungeon, but he lives."
The angel hesitated but gave in. We took him to the dungeon and chained him to a chair.
:::Time skip brought to you by Amara:::
"Okay so now that we took care of that, thanks by the way, who am I dealing with here?" I asked the angel.
"Hannah, angel of The Lord."
"Oh I thought your vessel looked different," I said. The vessel Hannah was currently using had long, straight, light brown hair and a tie dye shirt with ripped blue jeans.
"I promised not to use human vessels anymore. I only used a vessel to save you. This was the nearest available and willing human. She was down the road shouting at some people about trees."
"Why didn't you just send someone else?"
"I wanted to talk to you. We've sent groups to find you. I needed to talk to you myself this time."
"The answer is no and I will fight you," I warned. "I will not leave this Bunker or go to any desert I'm staying here."
"We want to keep you safe," said Hannah.
"I'm staying here. I'm going to fight monsters. I don't want to be safe."
"No I suppose you don't," Hannah sighed.
"Wait what?"
"You're dying. There's something very wrong with you. What have you done?"
"No."
"That's not a yes or no question . . ."
"Okay but this is me refusing to tell you what isn't your business," I said.
"I did just save your life Maria."
Okay yes she did save my life. " . . . The three trials to close hell," I said.
"That's suicide," said Hannah.
"No I'm doing it to kill the demons. That's revenge, not suicide. Death is merely one of the consequences."
"Do your friends know about this?"
"No and they aren't going to find out until the end."
"They would try to stop you," Hannah nodded.
"Are you going to try to stop me?"
"No. I'll help if I can," she offered.
"Really?"
"Of course. If hell was shut . . . We could make the world peaceful."
"You mean besides the other monsters and all the issues humans cause for themselves? Do you happen to know any rogue reapers or innocent souls trapped in hell?"
"I know a few reapers, but as for souls, only one soul. And you can not save him. The reaper will know of others."
"Why? Who is it?"
"Adam. He's still in the cage."
