Chapter 75: Dinah
I knocked on the purple door at Jophiel's house. I mean I know Gabe said she liked purple but the roof was purple, the door was purple, the borders on the windows were purple.
The woman from the pictures answered the door. "Hello!"
"Hi my name is Maria I'm looking for Jophiel," I said.
"She's not available right now. I'm her wife Dinah. Would you like to come inside?" Okay I think they're all gay. Angels are gay.
"Yes if it's not a problem."
"It's not, Jophiel doesn't get many visitors."
"Being a fallen angel would do that," I said. The house had purple carpet and purple curtains on the inside. Dinah led me to two purple couches and we sat down.
"Kool-aid?" she offered. I passed on it considering it was grape. Grape Kool-aid is nothing like actual grapes. Lies.
"So what exactly are you?" She asked.
"What?"
"Normal people don't know about Jophiel. So what are you?"
"I'm a prophet . . . and a hunter. I had a vision about Zad and Gabby and a few other arch nephilim."
"Other 'arch' nephilim?"
"Some of the other arch Angels also had children. There are five other kids like Zad and Gabby. I live with them and two hunters. You may have heard of the Winchesters?"
"You mean the ones who started the apocalypse?"
"That was an accident. They're very nice people. We all hunt with them. Me and your neices and nephews and some other people. Two of the other nephilim had demons inside their homes when we found them. When they get their powers they pass out. Zad and Gabby aren't safe."
"Our kids already have powers. They went through the whole thing and they're fine. They're safer with me. Jophiel can protect them."
"Where is Jophiel?" I asked.
"That's a bit complicated," Dinah pursed her lips. "See I'm her vessel. So she's somewhere in here, but I'm in control right now."
"I thought you were Jophiel's wife?"
"Yeah and sometimes this body is mine, sometimes it's hers. I'm her true vessel. We take turns. She gets to use this body when it's her turn, I have her powers when it's my turn. Right now it's my turn. She's resting. I'll tell her everything you tell me."
"You and Jophiel could come to The Bunker with Zad and Gabby. It would be the safest place on earth."
"I have a job here. We have a life. They go to school and have friends. I won't take that from them."
"There's a war coming, between us and heaven, your kids are mixed up in it somehow, I've seen it. You need to be careful."
"We can keep them safe, and they know how to fight, use their powers, fly away if they need to. If you need help, pray and we'll all come, but until then we need to stay here."
"I understand," I said. "If I had a normal life to go back to I wouldn't give it up either. I'll be going now. Feel free to pop by the Bunker if you change your mind or need anything."
"Thank you," she smiled. "Have a safe trip back."
"Oh," I paused at the door. "Gabriel said he was sorry."
"The Arch Angel Gabriel? My brother in law?"
I nodded.
"I thought he was dead!"
"Uh no he faked his death a while back or came back to life or something but he's fine. He's a complete ass but he's fine."
"What was he sorry for?"
"I don't really know. He didn't say. Just tell Jophiel. He must've assumed she would know."
"I'll tell her."
"Okay I really have to go now, there's a cat waiting in my car."
Jophiel looked confused but said nothing. I left.
::: Time skip brought to you by Elfis:::
"Maria, I'm here to-" I yelped and swerved the car nearly off the road. I put the brake on and looked behind me, grabbing my angel blade. There was this dude in the back seat.
"Well who are you supposed to be and why are you in my car?"
"My apologies for scaring you, I am Felix, a reaper. Hannah sent me."
"Right," I relaxed and dropped the blade. "Is there any chance you would help me get Adam Milligan out of the cage?"
"Wha- wait what?" He gaped at me. "Get Michaels vessel out of Lucifers cage? Are you insane?"
"Yes and yes. He's probably being tortured, he doesn't deserve to be in there. No one does. He was trying to help heaven. He's innocent and trapped in hell so he qualifies for the trial."
"He's not the only innocent soul in hell. Plenty of others, even actual hunters who killed demons, who deserve to go to heaven."
"But Adam is suffering the most. Out of all of them he needs our help the most."
"Look there are other choices Maria. Please."
"I want to help Adam."
"You could accidentally free Michael and Lucifer. I'm already risking heaven on my ass without breaking into the cage-"
"Wait didn't Hannah send you?"
"Of course," said Felix, "but she didn't say anything about the cage."
"Why would Hannah send heaven after you for following orders?"
"Hannah wou-" he stopped and studied my face. "Erm, what I meant was that . . . Um, Hannah would send heaven after me if I took you into the cage. Yeah. Sorry about the confusion."
"I'm rescuing Adam. You can help me or turn a blind eye. Don't try to stop me."
"I won't be a part of this. You go your way I'll go mine, but when this all goes bad, know I warned you." I heard the flapping of wings and he was gone.
I turned the key and the car started.
"Maria."
I turned to the passenger side and gripped the angel blade tighter. Where Cinders had been was a girl with black tangled hair, and familiar blue eyes.
"I swear to god the next person who poofs into this car is going to have a problem. Who are you and what did you do with Marcey's cat."
"You know me as Cinders. I am Marcey's cat. Sometimes. I'm a skin Walker. We need to talk."
"No shit Sherlock," I said sarcastically.
"Okay well yeah we need to talk about this," she gestured to herself. "But we also need to talk about the whole trials thing."
"Mikey knows you're not a cat doesn't he?"
"I am a cat," she protested. "I'm also a human, and he knows. He caught me eating some of Deans pie in human form."
"That was you?"
"I don't like the cat food you guys give me! I wanted pie! I did not reveal my human form so you could chastise me about pie!"
"What did you want?"
"To talk about the trials."
"Right. Did you tell Mikey about those?"
"No I respect your privacy, but this is crazy."
"I'm closing hell."
"That's what it's about?"
"Wait how much do you know?" I asked.
"I know you asked the Angel Hannah for help with these 'three trials', I know your health is deteriorating, I've seen you cough blood, I know you won't tell anyone else about it, I know you want to get this Adam guy out of hell and everyone else thinks it's a really bad idea, I know you won't tell anyone about it, and I know these trials end with you dead."
I explained about the hell hound, Kevin, who Adam was, the demon who killed my parents, and what each of the trials were.
"And if my friends and brother find out, they stop me and the demons who killed my parents go free, and people keep going to hell."
"Okay," said Cinders.
"Okay?"
"You made up your mind, sounds like a good plan."
"So you aren't telling anyone else?"
"Nope. They would interfere with the plan and people would keep going to hell like you said."
"Thank you. Now can we talk about the whole Skin Walker thing?"
Long story short, Cinders neighborhood was full of skin walkers and we had been hunting one that went rogue. Her aunt was her previous 'owner'. Her mom had become a skin walker and the aunt had found her in cat form and decided to keep her. She could've just not shown up in cat form around the neighborhood anymore, except it made the aunt really sad, so she just pretended to be a pet cat every now and then. Plus it was easier to raise her children if they all fit into a little basket. The mom was one of the victims the other skin walker killed, so she was basically an orphan when we found them. The aunt gave her away thinking she was just a cat.
"Do you want to stay with us?" I asked. "I mean that kinda sounds like we kidnapped you. Plus we kill people like you."
"They're not like me. They're murderers. One of them killed my mom. You're good people. I want to stay in The Bunker."
"Good. Are you and Mikey dating?"
"No no no, we are just friends."
"Okay. And when do you plan on telling everyone about this?" I waved a hand at the girl sitting across from me.
"Do you think they'll be mad?"
"They'll get over it."
"I'll tell them when we get back."
"You don't have to."
"But I want to. Why aren't we driving?"
"This is the first time I've been away from the others in a while. I may not get another chance. I need to complete the second trial. If you're okay with it we I could go do that now."
"I'm fine with it but you just sent away the reaper."
"No we need to get Adam out. He's the second trial."
"The Angels won't help."
"Then we go to the other side of the spectrum. We call Crowley."
"He's the demon one right?"
"That's the one. You good with this?"
"Yep."
So I took out my phone, and called the king of hell.
A/N
Hey peoples!
So the cat is a skin walker.
Did you see that coming?
Yeah. I had Jophiel and Cinders waiting in my notes for a while.
Eventually I will go back and make all the media relevant, but not today. Enjoy the song about Daleks.
LURV CHU ALL!
