1x10 Scarecrow
I was sitting on a bench near a park when John, was in a telephone booth talking to Sam.
John was telling Sam about Azazel, who killed their mother, and about the demon who killed Jessica under Azazel's orders.
John looked rugged and tired from the years of always looking for Azazel, and trying to find a way and kill him for murdering Mary.
John had the same look and behavior when we came from the war, the look of a soldier broken and tired after losing everything he holds dear.
I tried to help him or comfort him from his grief, but he insisted that he didn't want help just revenge on the demon that killed the love of his life.
Gone was the man who smiled and had a caring and loving heart, now was the soldier who demanded that his orders were followed without question.
Now I Understand why the angels compare the Winchester family to Michael, John was the version of Michael when he became leader of the Host and Father left.
Dean, on the other hand was the version of Michael before the fall and the war, the son who followed orders without question and protected his younger siblings.
Later that night, I was in the Impala invisible to Sam and Dean, as they talked about the names that John had given them.
"All right, the names that Dad gave us where all couples? Sam looked up from the list and asked Dean
"Three different couples, all went missing." Confirmed Dean
"All from different towns, different states? Sam skeptical
"That's right, yeah Washington, New York, and Colorado." Dean listed of the states
"Each couple took a trip cross-country and never arrived at their destination or was heard from again."
"It's a big country Dean, they could've disappeared anywhere." Sam still skeptical about this case their father gave them
But, each one of them took them through the same part of Indiana, always on the second week of April, one year after another." Dean looked at Sam
"This is the second week of April? Sam realized
"Yep." Said Dean shaking his head
"So, Dad sending us to Indiana, to go hunting for something before another couple varnishes?" Sam sumerized
"Can you imagine putting together a pattern like this? Dean asked
"The different Orbits, that Dad had to go through? Idolizing John
"Oh,your Father didn't do it alone Dean, the amount of times I had to save your Father, I Understood why Death was displeased with you wreaking the natural order of this world." I thought to myself
Suddenly I felt a change in the car, as we went to a different direction and Sam body language changed.
"What are you doing? Dean asked confused
"We're not going to Indiana Dean." Declared Sam
"We're not? Dean looked at Sam perplexed
"No, we're going to California and finding Dad." Sam putting his foot down
"Dean, if this demon killed Mom and Jess, and Dad's closing in, we have to be there." Sam looked at Dean convinced
"Dad doesn't want our help, he gave us an order to follow." Dean reasoning with Sam
"Well, I don't care about the orders, I am going to find Dad, with or without you" Sam said defiantly
The whole back and forth conversation between the two reminded me so much of Lucifer and Michael.
Lucifer, always questioning Father's orders and doing his own thing.
Michael, following Father's orders down to the letter and trying to convince Lucifer to trust in the plan.
And just like Michael and Lucifer's arguments, Lucifer leaves and Michael still continues being the good and faithful son.
I left the Impala after that and flew to
Burkitsville, the town where the couples were last seen.
When I got there I could sense the old Nordic power from the runes, the whole town was connected to them like a beacon.
I found the source of the runes, and it was an old tree pulsating with a green light, this power felt familiar and then I remembered.
This was Vanir magic, a smile graced my lips when I recalled the wonderful experience I had in Vanaheimr, home of the Vanir gods.
The Vanir taught me many things such as rune casting and spells that healed the worst curses.
My experience in the Norse pantheon was unique, Asgard was a fighter's dream world, every day and night the Einherjar, the dead army of Odin would fight and hold tournaments to see who was the strongest.
Vanaheimr was beautiful and adventurous to anyone who was lucky enough to visit and see the scenery, the realm had an endless expanse of bright and darkly colorful forests, and the lakes were shining as if they were made of gold and home to many wildlife.
Alfheim to me was a fake knock-off of heaven's paradise and light, if heaven was natural light then Alfheim was artificial in nature, behind the smiles and pleasant atmosphere was a place filled with more greed and corruption than any of the realms.
Jotunhiem was tall, filled with giants and tall mountains, but I hated one thing in Jotunhiem, which was Utgaroa-Loki the king of the mountain giants, he was the Gabriel of Jotunhiem.
Midgard was well Earth, I have nothing to say about that.
Svartalfheim was the homeland of the Dwarves, the most cunning, dedicated, and innovative race that I have ever seen.
The realm was off-limits and very few people are given permission to enter, and it was the place were their creations were given form.
Niflheim was the coldest place I have ever been, I had to completely engulf myself in primordial fire to just survive and breathe.
Helhiem was a place that I will never go back to, that place is a place where even the worst demons would cry to Father to save them.
Muspelheim was such like hell, fire and lava everywhere and completely chaotic everywhere the eye could see.
Just then a glowing green spirit was in front of me, and he smiled at me and spoke to me in old Norse.
["ᚺᛖᛚᛚᛟ ᛁᛋᚨᛁᛖᛚ, ᚨᚾᚷᛖᛚ ᛟᚠ ᛏᚺᛖ ᛚᛟᚱᛞ ᛁᛏ ᚺᚨᛋ ᛒᛖᛖᚾ ᚨ ᛚᛟᚾᚷ ᛏᛁᛗᛖ ᛋᛁᚾᚲᛖ ᚤᛟᚢ ᚹᛖᚱᛖ ᛋᛖᛖᚾ, ᛏᚺᛖ ᛋᛈᛁᚱᛁᛏᛋ ᛟᚠ ᛏᚺᛖ ᚡᚨᚾᛁᚱ ᚺᚨᚡᛖ ᛗᛁᛋᛋᛖᛞ ᚤᛟᚢ."]
["Hello Isaiel, angel of the lord it has been a long time since you have been seen, the spirts of the Vanir have missed you."]
"You remember me? And may I ask, why are you bound here and not Vanaheimr? I asked confused by the spirts presence.
["ᛁ ᚹᚨᛋ ᛏᚱᛁᚲᚴᛖᛞ ᛒᚤ ᚺᚢᛗᚨᚾᛋ, ᛏᚺᛖᚤ ᚺᚨᛞ ᛈᚱᛟᛗᛁᛋᛖᛞ ᛗᛖ ᚨ ᚾᛖᚹ ᚺᛟᛗᛖ ᚨᚠᛏᛖᚱ ᛁ ᚹᚨᛋ ᛈᛚᚨᚲᛖᛞ ᛁᚾ ᛗᛁᛞᚷᚨᚱᛞ, ᛒᚢᛏ ᛏᚺᛖᚤ ᛚᛁᛖᛞ ᚨᚾᛞ ᚾᛟᚹ ᛁ ᚨᛗ ᛒᛟᚢᚾᛞ ᛏᛟ ᛏᚺᛁᛋ ᛈᛚᚨᚲᛖ ᚠᛟᚱᚲᛖᛞ ᛏᛟ ᚢᛋᛖ ᛗᚤ ᛈᛟᚹᛖᚱ ᛏᛟ ᚷᚱᚨᚾᛏ ᛒᛚᛖᛋᛋᛁᚾᚷᛋ ᛏᛟ ᛏᚺᛖ ᛈᛖᛟᛈᛚᛖ ᛟᚠ ᛏᚺᛁᛋ ᛏᛟᚹᚾ, ᚹᛁᛏᚺ ᛏᚺᛁᛋ ᚹᚨᚱᛞᛖᚾ ᛏᛟ ᚴᛖᛖᛈ ᛗᛖ ᚺᛖᚱᛖ."]
["I was tricked by humans, they had promised me a new home after I was placed in Midgard, but they lied and now I am bound to this place forced to use my power to grant blessings to the people of this town, with this warden to keep me here."] The spirit pointed to the scarecrow
"That is very unfortunate, and I give you my word I will free you from this curse that bounds you, but the tree must be burned." I told the spirit
I the spirit didn't care if it was burned, and I told him of Dean and how he would burn the tree and free him, he agreed and left.
The next morning, Dean began to question a man named Scotty about the recent couple that went missing.
Everything stays the same and later, Dean Sam, and Emily find the tree and the spirit gives me a nod of thanks before leaving.
