Juno gasped in pain as she tried sitting up with the wound in her chest. She cried out in pain, touching her hand to the open wound. The blade that Toni used was fairly large and ripped straight through Juno's bone. It wasn't gold, though. Juno began to pull herself off the ground, screaming in pain as she was trying to get up. She stumbled against the table, then reached for her cell phone in her pocket. She opened it to Castiel's number, pressing it. It rang a few times before he actually picked up.

"Juno? Are you okay? What happened?" Cas asked in a worried voice.

"Cas..." Juno grunted out. "She took Sam."

"Who was she?" Cas asked.

"Toni Bevell. Apparently the Men of Letters have an English division. She's from the London Chapterhouse and was sent here to collect Sam, and..." Juno trailed off as she grunted in pain again, stumbling back to the ground.

"Juniper? What happened?" Cas asked, even more worried this time.

"Sam's shot and gone, and I'm bleeding out of my chest. She stabbed me," Juno told him through deep breath's.

"Was it gold?" Castiel asked.

"No, it wasn't," Juno said, holding back the tears in her eyes.

"Are you still at the bunker?" Cas asked, continuing on with the questions.

"Yes. But I don't know where Sam is," Juno said shaking her head. "Cas, we can't lose both of them in one day. That's not fair."

"We'll get Sam back, Juno. Stay where you are. I'll be there in about three hours," Cas told her quickly.

"Oh, god. Okay," Juno gasped out.

"Juno, just hang on," Cas said again.

"Yeah, yeah, got it," Juno breathed out. She hung up the phone, letting her arm drop to her side.

*****

What seemed like an eternity of pain was only three hours later. Juno tried to stumble to the infirmary, but only ended up dragging a pool of blood with her to the steps. She didn't even make it to the library before she passed out. Then woke up again in ten minutes to hear the door to the bunker opening. She weakly pulled the gun from her waist band, thinking it would be another one of those British bastards to finish the job or clear out shop.

"Juno?" She could swear it was Dean's voice, but she couldn't quite tell. She had hallucinated Charlie already, but quickly realized what was happening. "Juno."

"Dean?" she asked furrowing her eyebrows. "You're alive?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm alive. Where's Sammy? Where's Cas?" Dean asked kneeling next to her.

"S-Sam, he, uh..." she trailed off as she tried to sit up, but yelled out in pain again. She finally noticed the woman standing at the stairs, not knowing what to do. "Who's she?"

"Where's Sam?" Dean demanded.

"T-This woman t-took him. Her n-names Toni Bevell. C-Claims she's from the Men of L-Letters in England," Juno stuttered out. She sat again the pillar, groaning at the immense pain in her chest. "Cas is on his way here."

"You stay here. I'll be right back with some bandages," Dean told her. Juno nodded slightly, then she looked at the other woman in the room.

"Who are you?" she asked.

"My names Mary. Uh, Mary Winchester. I'm Sam and Dean's mom," she said with a slight nod. Juno nodded. She put the gun on the floor then slid it to Mary.

"Anyone walks in you aim. Unless I tell you not to," Juno ordered her.

"Right," Mary said with a nod. She picked up the gun, loading it and pulling it off safety. Juno smiled as she leaned her head back against the pillar. She could feel her eyelids beginning to shut, but the door to the bunker opened again. Castiel stepped in, his gaze immediately going to Juno bleeding out on the floor.

"Juniper," he said beginning to run down the stairs. Mary turned, pointing the gun at him.

"Ah, no. He's a good guy," Juno told Mary. Dean walked into the room with bandages, Castiel's eyes widening at him.

"Dean!" he exclaimed, walking towards him with arms out.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm bleeding out on the floor here. Can you pause your bromance long enough to save my life, maybe?" Juno asked taking her gaze to the two men.

"Right," Dean nodded. Castiel turned to Juno, placing his hand over the open wound. He looked back at the several pools of blood, shaking his head slightly. He began healing the wound, Juno feeling better by the second. She gasped as the wound finally closed and she could feel her blood flowing again.

"Wow, I never thought I'd swim in a pool of blood and live," Juno said breathing out. Cas wrapped his arms around her, Juno slowly hugging back. "Okay. Yup. Hey, Cas, Dean's alive." Cas pulled back, then stood and turned to Dean.

"You're alive," Cas said still in disbelief. He launched himself into Dean's arms, Dean slowly returning the hug. Juno furrowed her eyebrows at them as she began standing up. "What about the bomb and the Darkness? What happened?"

"I'll tell you everything. Where is Sam?" Dean asked.

"He's not here," Juno said wiping her hands off.

"Are you a Hunter?" Mary asked looking at Cas.

"No, I'm an angel."

"He's an angel."

"Come again?" Mary asked.

"An Angel, with a-a capital 'A.' You know, wings, harp," Dean said looking at her.

"No, I don't have a harp," Cas said shaking his head.

"Or wings anymore," Juno followed up.

"This is Castiel. Cas, this is...Mary. Winchester," Dean stated. Cas took a beat as he stared at Dean.

"Your mother," Cas said.

"Yeah. So, wait, uh, where – where is Sam? He's not answering his phone, there's blood on the floor. What's going on?" Dean asked.

"I don't know," Juno answered him. "We came back here, there was a woman waiting for us. She blasted Cas away. She said she was a Men of Letters from the London Chapterhouse -- Toni Bevell. I don't know what happened to Sam."

"I don't understand. What happened?" Mary asked confused.

"Okay, well, the bunker's empty, so – so they've obviously left here. You said woman – not an angel, not a demon, a-a human," Dean stuttered as he looked at Juno.

"She was human," Juno confirmed. Dean sighed, walking to the table and grabbing his laptop.

"When did this go down?" Dean asked.

"It was 2:12 a.m." Cas told him.

"Is that a-a computer?" Mary asked furrowing her eyebrows.

"Yes. I don't trust them," Cas said looking at her. Juno rolled her eyes, stepping behind Dean as she watched him hack the traffic cameras. He clicked through a few cameras to finally see a car run a light.

"Got something. An S.U.V. ran a red light a few blocks from here at 2:21 a.m. And there wasn't another car for 40 minutes," Dean said as he back the footage up and zoomed in on the plates.

"How did you do that?" Mary asked leaning over his shoulder.

"I hacked the traffic cams," Dean said nonchalantly. He noticed Mary's distressed look, smiling at her. "Welcome to the future."

"You think it's them?" Cas asked.

"It's worth a shot," Dean answered.

*****

The four walked into the garage, other cars, besides Baby, and motorcycles were lined up inside. Including the motorcycle that Juno had stolen. Mary stopped upon seeing Baby, Dean noticing her stare at the car.

"Mom?" he asked. Mary took a few steps forward, beginning to run her fingers along the car.

"This was John's car. Oh, she's still beautiful," Mary said with a smile.

"Hell, yeah, she is," Dean said with a smile and a nod.

"Hi, sweetheart. Remember me?" Mary asked as she leaned against the window. Juno watched as she stared at the back seat. Juno realized what she was doing, her eyes widening slightly.

"Oh," she muttered as Dean stood up straight, seemingly noticing as well.

"We should go," Dean stated. Cas gave him a confused look as he began walking to the Impala.

"You know, we'll take the truck," Juno said pulling Cas away from the car.

"But-"

"We're taking the truck, let's go," Juno said pulling Cas towards the truck he had stolen earlier.

"Why are we taking the truck?" Cas asked furrowing his eyebrows. Juno sighed, patting his shoulder.

"You'll understand at some point," she said with a smile. She got in the drivers seat, beginning to back out of the garage, Dean following suit.

*****

The four rounded the corner, walking into the garage of Jaime Ross's home. He was working on the engine of a black S.U.V. that had the same plates as the one in the security cameras.

"Jaime Ross?" Castiel questioned.

"Who's asking?" Jaime asked turning to them.

"The blond woman that you drove yesterday, where'd you take her?" Castiel asked walking to him.

"Blonde? Sorry, mate, you got the wrong –" Cas grabbed Jamie's shoulders, headbutting him twice in the head.

"Cas!" Juno warned him.

"That's an angel?" Mary asked.

"Blonde. Where'd you drive her. Now," Castiel demanded.

"I-I-I don't know the place," Jamie stuttered out in fear. Still lying.

"What do you know?" Cas followed up.

*****

Mary sat at the table looking around as they had gotten little information out of Jamie. He knew about a doctor that Toni needed because she'd shot Sam in the knee. Otherwise, there wasn't much information to give.

"Thank you," Castiel said to the woman as she handed him and Juno a tray of coffee. The two walked back to Mary, Juno handing her a coffee. "This must be difficult for you. I remember my first moments on Earth. It was jarring."

"One word for it," Mary said with a slight laugh. I grew up with Hunters. I've heard of people coming back from the dead before. But to actually do it... after 30 years. A lot's changed." She took a look around, noticing all the phones and computers again. "A lot." Dean walked back to the table, taking a seat between his mom and Cas.

"Find anything?" Juno asked as she handed him a coffee.

"Yeah, ran the, uh, tail number that what's-his-face gave us. The plane that Evil Elsa flew in on has diplomatic registry," Dean informed him. Juno rolled her eyes as Castiel rubbed his face in frustration.

"Which means?" Mary asked.

"Which means its flight plans are sealed unless you want to hack the State Department," Dean said with a slight shrug.

"Who are these people?" Mary asked in a frustrated tone. Castiel looked up from his coffe, noticing Gregory Marion's vehicle, the vet.

"Dean," he stated. Dean looked at the vehicle, too. He motioned for them all to go after it, the four following the truck down the driveway. Dean followed him all the way to the door, then pointed his gun at Marion's neck.

"Dr. Marion, how about you let us in?" Dean suggested. Marion let them in out of fear, the four now standing in front of him. He explained how he dug the bullet out of Sam's leg, but obviously left out the Sam part seeing as he didn't know who Sam was.

"So, you dug the bullet out of his leg, no questions asked?" Dean asked.

"She offered me 100 grand," Marion shrugged.

"And you took it?" Mary asked in disbelief.

"Student loans are a bitch, okay?" he snapped. Cas grew angry beginning to lunge at him.

"Cas! Cas! Cas! Don't hurt him. Not yet," Dean said pulling him back.

"All right, look, she didn't give me her name. When we were done, the driver bailed, I got paid, and then some other chick shows up, and they all drive away," Marion told them, not fully truthfully.

"And that's everything you know?" Mary asked.

"Yeah. Totally," he said with a slight eye roll.

"Hurt him," Mary told Cas. He stepped forward, grabbing Marion by the collar.

"Oh, oh, aah! I have her phone number! Okay?" he said in a panicked tone. Castiel stopped, letting him speak. "Okay, look, look, look. Look, I don't know where they are, but she called me a couple hours ago – a few hours ago, asking about the sedative I gave the guy. So...I've got her phone number." Juno walked around the desk, picking his phone up. She grabbed his hand roughly, putting it on the home button to unlock it. When it opened, she began going to recent calls. She clicked on more info, then wrote down the number on a note pad. She handed the phone to Dean who handed it to Marion.

"Call her. Ask about the patient, and if she's stingy I'll take over," Dean commanded Marion. He nodded, clicking on her number. He set it on speaker for everyone to hear.

"Dr. Marion," Toni answered.

"Yeah, I'm just calling, you know, to, uh, check on the patient," Marion told her.

"Is everything all right, doctor?" Toni questioned.

"Yeah, yeah, sure. Definitely," Marion reassured her.

"I'm hanging up now," Toni said. Dean grabbed the phone out of Gregory's hand, beginning to talk to Toni.

"Listen, bitch. I don't care who you are, I don't care what you want. You have my brother," Dean spat at her.

"Dean Winchester. I heard you were dead," Toni said.

"Well, you heard wrong. Now, I'm gonna give you one chance – just one – to hand Sam back," Dean spat at her.

"Sorry. Not possible," Toni informed him.

"Oh, you think you can run from me? Try it. Because when I find you – and I will find you – if he is not in one piece, I will take you apart. You understand me?" Dean questioned her. The phone beeped, indicating she hung up. Dean bent the phone in half, no one even questioning it. The four left the vet's office in a hurry, Juno and Cas trailing behind the Impala.

"Where are we going?" Cas asked looking at Juno who was driving.

"Bunker. We need to trace the phone number back and it's probably not best to do it when they know we're near their general area," Juno told him. A few miles down the road, a car came out of no where, hitting the Impala on the side. Juno slammed on the brakes, her and Cas beginning to get out of the car. Cas ran to the Impala, Juno pulling the gun out of the glove compartment. She stepped out to see Dean checking on the Impala, then noticed a woman standing against her car.

"Dean Winchester, I presume," she said as she stared at Dean. Juno cocked her gun, then rose it at the woman. "You should be more careful with your location services on your phone."

"Are you one of them?" Dean asked.

"I'm one of them," the woman confirmed.

"Yeah," Dean said with a nod. He stepped forward, "You tell me where my brother is, and I might take it easy on you."

"Oh, please don't," the woman said shaking her head. She broke out of Dean's grasp, pulling him behind her. She punched him across the face, then turned to Juno. She kicked the gun out of her hand, Juno immediately ducking from the punch. She stood up straight, catching the woman's fist and twisting it back. She noticed the warded brass knuckles on her wrists, furrowing her eyebrows.

"What? Can't fight like a woman on your own?" Juno asked tilting her head at Watts. Watts grunted, kneeing Juno in the stomach. She punched her across the face, then turned to fight with Castiel. He went to stab her with the angel blade, but she punched him, causing Cas to lose balance. He went to stab her from behind, but she kicked it out of his hand. She then kicked Cas down, hitting him once more. She turned to the three people, a smile on her face. Dean went for his gun in his waistband, but Watts held it up.

"Looking for this?" she asked. She placed it on the trunk of the Impala, then stood promptly to look at them. "So, round two? Anyone?"

"I've got a round two for ya," Juno muttered. She opened her mouth, screaming at Watts. The woman immediately covered her ears in pain, her knee's falling to the ground. Juno stopped for a moment, walking to the woman and kicking her in the head. She grabbed her by the collar, pulling her up. "Where's Sam?" The woman only laughed, Juno smiling slightly. "Yeah, I figured you'd say that." She dropped Watts to the ground, then kicked her in the chest, Watts crumbling in pain. "I'm going to ask one more time before I start screaming: Where is Sam?" Watts looked up at Juno, spitting blood at her. Juno wiped it off her face, then nodded.

She turned slightly, then stepped back to Watts and screamed at her. Blood began trickling out of her eyes, ears, and nose as she was screaming in pain. Cas and Dean didn't know if she was actually screaming because they couldn't hear anything. That's because Juno was centering her powers at one person. Watts stood up, beginning to bang her hand against the side of the Impala. Juno stopped then, grabbing Watts before she could actually kill herself.

"Ah, ah, ah, if you want to stab me in the chest there's obviously going to be consequences," Juno said with a sigh. "I think you know the question and the answer, so, go ahead. What's the answer?" Watts didn't answer, but she lunged forward and grabbed Dean's gun. She aimed for Juno, ready to shoot. The next second, the angel blade that Cas had dropped was right through Watts' chest. Juno stepped slightly to her right as Watts was firing aimlessly as her body fell to the ground. Juno looked to see Mary who was holding the angel blade now. "Damn, Mary." She looked at Dean. "Your moms great, Dean."

"Yeah," he breathed out. Juno turned, stepping to Cas who was getting up from the ground.

"Are you good?" she asked grabbing his arms as she pulled him up.

"I'm fine. How come we couldn't hear you?" Castiel asked her with furrowed eyebrows. Juno reached into her pocket, holding up a slip of paper. Cas took it from her, reading, 'Center on one person, not everyone'.

"Lucifer slipped it to me when we made out," Juno said with a slight nod. "Bastard was right." Cas let out a small chuckle, then he hugged Juno. "Okay, you don't have to hug me every time we're close to death."

"It just helps me feel closer to you," Cas told her. He stepped back, looking at Dean. They went on to hiding the car, pushing it into an open space on the side of the road. Dean walked back to Mary, Juno and Cas beginning to cover the car with tree branches. The British Men of Letters just made a new enemy.
