“You are amazing! You totally ditched them!” Meg said full admiration. She was driving the Impala. She didn’t have the keys, but she didn’t need them. Just because she was human, didn’t mean she was a saint. “So, where do you want to go?” she asked, looking at Cas.
Cas pulled a paper out of his jacket and opened it. “I need to find these people, in the exact order” Cas said serious.
Meg took the paper out of his hand and studied it, while trying to keep an eye on the road. “Who are they?” she asked curious.
“People who’ve wronged me” Cas explained bitter. “People who need to do penance”
“Are you going to kill everyone on that list?” Meg asked careful.
“Of course not” Cas replied obvious. “First I will make them suffer. Then I will kill them”
Meg gave him back his paper and looked back at the road.
“What’s wrong?” Cas asked confused. “What’s the problem?”
“You are” Meg said after a while and she pulled over. She looked at Cas. “This whole ‘they’re going to pay for what they did to me’ is not you! You’re not the vengeful type”
“Maybe I wasn’t when I was still an angel, but as an angel I’ve never been…Doesn’t matter. I thought you were on my side. Why change your mind now? Are you scared or something?” Cas asked desperate. When he saw the look on Meg’s face, he understood and he took her hands in his. “I am not a…psychopath. I’m not taking these lives, because I enjoy it. They all tried to ruin my life in their own way. I promise I will stop when everyone on that list is dead”
“Well, then we better start right away” Meg replied casual as she started driving again.

Since there was no way any of them was going to get any sleep, they packed their bags and loaded the Impala. Dean placed himself behind the wheel, Sam sat next to him and Meg on the backseat.
“First stop: Pontiac, Illinois” Dean said, as he started the engines and drove ahead. As they drove Dean turned on the radio to break the silence.
Meg stared out of the window. She felt utterly powerless. Had she still been a demon she would’ve just zapped herself to him. But then maybe she wouldn’t have felt this way and she wouldn’t even bother to go find him.
Maybe this was a sign. Maybe she was supposed to let go and go back to her old life.
No!, she reproached herself. You’re not going back to killing for fun. You didn’t get this far to throw it all away. You’re going to find Cas and get him back.
“Everything okay, there?” Dean asked.
“Yeah, I’m good” Meg replied with a mischievous smile.
