Sam was back home. He had given his statement to the police and they had no reason to question it. Anna was there, too and she wasn’t alone. She had brought a woman with her.
“Sam, this is Maryana, she’s a witch” Anna introduced the woman. Sam squeezed his eyes in suspicion.
“You brought a witch here?” Sam exclaimed. “You know we can’t trust them. They’re selfish”
“I’m standing right here, you know” Maryana pointed out.
“I know it’s risky” Anna started to explain. “But right now I think it’s the only option we have. Cas has gone completely off the rails and someone has to put him back on it”
“Okay” Sam gave in. “What did you have in mind?”
“Well, normally I would put him under hypnosis, but since he’s a first class murderer I’d like to stay away from him as far as possible” Maryana said. “So, I’m going to do something much more fun…I’m going to make him switch bodies with whoever’s closest to him”
“We have to separate Cas from his angel powers. He’s being consumed by them and they make him angry. When he’s out of his body we can take away his powers and he’ll be human again. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I think he’d be much better off that way”
“The closest person to Cas is Dean” Sam suddenly realized. “He’s very much on Cas’ side. What if he uses Cas’ powers to keep the killing going?”
“Dean doesn’t know how to use those powers” Anna said obvious.
“And shouldn’t we give them a warning? In case they freak out?” Sam suggested.
“No” Maryana said fast. “If you tell them they’d try to ruin the plan and then Cas will always be the monster he is now”

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.
