Summary: Michael is caged inside Dean's mind for now. But there's grace leaking from the cracks, banging on the doors, and Dean knows what happens at the end of this story. With borrowed (and confusing) Archangel abilities, a group of mistrustful Apocalypse Universe Hunters, and too many Michael Monsters to deal with, Team Free Will 2.0 needs to clean up the mess that Michael's left behind and stop another apocalypse. Not all the danger is locked inside a bar's walk-in freezer, though - and the Winchesters need to watch out for old and new enemies around every corner.
And at the end of it all, Dean needs to decide how far he'll go to get rid of Michael once and for all.
Excerpt Below:
[from Chapter 9]
“Dean!” Jack cries suddenly, and Sam and Bobby both whip around to face Dean.
Dean is hunched over in the chair, past the point of words or relief. Sam can’t see his face – he can’t see much of anything, grace pours through cracks in Dean’s skin like magma tearing through the earth’s crust. There’s a sudden pressure as if the air’s been electrocuted or they’re seconds away from a lightning bolt crashing into the room. The pressure is followed by an intense high-pitched whine that intensifies until it’s like the sound of a fork dragging across a plate. Sam’s hands snap up to cover his ears, but he feels the sound vibrate in his skull like he’s on the same frequency as angel radio. The pitch sharpens, and Sam’s ears pop as the pressure in the room increases.
He hears Bobby yell his name over the tenor, but he can’t hear anything else other than the strident clamor, and Sam feels the crushing sensation like a heaviness settling in his bones. His knees hit the floor, the piercing uproar of angels tearing holes in Sam’s head.
Sam’s eyes have long since shut to ineffectively block out the light radiating off Dean. Already past the point of what’s physically bearable, the light intensifies, and then –
The room calms.
Sam sucks a breath into frozen lungs, and finds himself on his hands and knees on the floor of the Bunker. He hears the gasping on either side of him from Jack and Bobby, and finally raises his head.
His vision is a wash of orange afterimages, and he blinks stars from his eyes. “Dean?” He asks, and can barely hear himself through the ringing in his ears. He coughs and tries again louder, “Dean?”
His retinas clear away the worst of the sear, and he squints towards the table.
Dean is gone.
Sam feels his heart stutter in his chest, and he pulls himself up groggily to his knees, and then finally to his feet. He turns in a shaky circle, but there’s no sign of his brother.
He yells Dean’s name again, but there’s no response. Sam turns frantic eyes towards Jack, then Bobby.
And if his heart stuttered before, now it stops dead in his chest.
Bobby is prone on his hands and knees at Sam’s side. He looks like shit, and there’s blood dripping from somewhere on the grizzled hunter’s face. But that’s not what causes Sam’s insides to freeze. Bobby’s hand is sliced open with a pocket knife, and syrupy blood splatters smear thickly against the floor.
Bobby’s other hand is slapped bloody onto an angel-banishing sigil.
Almost 6 years later and I’m finally writing the chapter I’ve been sooooo nervous to write. To make it even HARDER, my cat decides it’s time to co-opt the lap.
Hey so I adore your stuff (clearly) and just want to throw out there that after you finish this one you should consider a fic where Dean does end up getting trapped in Ma'lak. Obviously he would get out (via Sam? Via Micheal? Idk?( and hence angst and possibly Hallucifer type problems (that he desperately tries to hide because he's Dean).
It just really disappointed me that he didn't spend any time in the box at all. I obviously don't want him permanently in there but the angst potential?! Especially after that dream he had?! Yes please.
I hope this isn't too forward or rambly. I just really love your stuff and you write Micheal!Dean and trauma as well as if not much better than the actual show and this is an idea that's been swimming in my head that I in no way feel qualified to write lol.
Anyway. Thank you!
You have seriously made my whole week! No one has live-blogged my fic before! I feel like you should write all my chapter summaries - they alternatively crack me up or are really profound (more profound than the chapter itself lol)! I started NAGN before the mal’ak box reveal in the show, ! I think (sadly) I may take a break from Michael-related fics after this one... the next one rattling around in my brain is a fic where Sam and Dean get stuck in Purgatory maybe post season 10, and there’s some old enemy of Dean’s after him - maybe Gordon or some new enemy from Dean’s time in Purgatory “off-screen” between s7/s8!
HOWEVER - if you want a malak box fic, boy do I have a recommendation for you: I’m a really big fan of @hookmanfritz‘s The Abyss Gazes Back (AO3: Water_of_Life) Please check it out!!
Seriously - you are awesome. Thanks so much for all the hype :j
Dean frowns, losing a few lines of Naomi’s explanation, and wonders if the memories that Michael had chipped out of his skull are screwing up his ability to read his brother.
“Dean.” Someone gravels, and Dean tears his eyes off his brother before Sam realizes the focus of his distraction.
Cas is staring at him balefully, blue eyes icy with concern. “Sorry.” He grunts, and feels some of the old Dean click in for a moment, “Sam has a booger in his nose.”
Cas, looking mildly repulsed, turns to inspect a frozen Sam, before returning suspicious eyes back on Dean. “He most certainly does not.”
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR AN UPDATE FOR SOO LONG. I KNOW IM BEING HYPOCRITICAL BUT AHH I CHECK EVERYDAY FOR YOUR UPDATE. PLUS I JUST REALLY MISSED YOU 😪
It is LIVE. But you probably saw already since I am trash and didn’t reply to this like three days ago. And I’m sorry, I promise I won’t take so long with next chapter!!
