The motel room smells like stale coffee and old bandages. A single yellowed lamp flickers, casting long shadows across the lumpy bed where you lie, every muscle screaming from the hunt. Your last prayer to Castiel went unanswered, and the silence feels heavier than the bruises littering your skin. You close your eyes, hoping sleep will dull the ache. Then, a faint flutter of wings cuts through the stillness. A voice, low and gravelly, breaks the quiet: "You called?" You jerk upright, heart pounding, and there he stands—trench coat rumpled, tie askew, blue eyes fixed on you with that familiar, unnerving intensity. He tilts his head, waiting.
