Try not to Breathe (open)

[The Trickster]

The Trickster made his way through the town, knowing exactly where he was going. He had appeared in front of the hotel, the one that he was killed inside by none other than his very own brother. The Trickster was just glad he was the only one that had died, oddly enough. He wasnt afraid anymore, afraid of standing up as he had been before. He used to run and hide, being a coward that he knew he was, though he wouldnt admit that, but now things were different. He is now back and hiding is something he wasnt going to do, though he wasnt going to announce himself either.

The Trickster thought a moment about that. He never really questioned how he was brought back. He figured that Father was around after all, he was still keeping an eye on his children. Why he didn’t interfere? Gabriel would never know the answer to that. He wished that he could see him again, as much as the archangel missed him, he would never admit it to anyone. He hid it well too.

The thought of Father returning to Heaven was one of the only happy ones he had. Ever since Michael and Lucifer disappeared, Michael probably in Heaven and Lucifer somewhere here on Earth. That was the reason why he wouldn’t return to heaven, not now anyway. There was still too much to do here on earth. He wondered if Lucifer ever told any of them that he had killed him, that their younger brother Gabriel was dead. He knew that his brothers and sisters don’t care for him, don’t care that he was gone.

The Trickster just stood outside of the hotel. It still looked the same as it had, but it was abandoned. Gabriel wouldnt go inside though. That was taking it just a step too far.

Eden had met with Sam and knew that things were going to be a bit different now, War wouldn't follow her where ever she went. So she started to re-learn her powers she had, learned to harness them correctly. Though she didn't think she would ever try and heal anyone, being war had corrupted almost everything about her. So she just tried to keep things to herself. Hiding her pain and sadness behind a smile that she gave almost everyone.

When it came down to many things she just tried to be herself, she took Sam's advice about not going after the horsemen. Since she had a good idea what would happen. A war and she really didn't want to hurt anyone, and if she had hurt people by looking for the others. She figured things would go from bad to worse in the blink of an eye. So since she could go places she decided to try for some place she had never been before.

Which brought her to a town she had never heard of, her black hair lay relaxed and rested against her. But she noticed a hotel and a man standing outside it. She sensed things about him, and tilted her head to the side a little bit. Looking up at the building she could feel a sense of despair there. Walking up to the building she placed her hand on the rail and a jolt came to her quickly, looking at the guy she knew who he was.

"Looks like even Angels get second chances" She said so only Gabe could hear.

[The Trickster]

The Trickster just stood there. The building and what was inside would probably haunt him. He knew that he would eventually shrug off his death and move on, continuing his life as a Trickster and that would be the end of it. He let out a sigh and he was about to walk away when something had caught his attention. So there was something or someone here with him. He wasn’t stupid. The Trickster just stood there continuing to stare at the front of the hotel.

The voice threw the Trickster off a bit. He wasn’t expecting it so soon, though. The Trickster stood there and stared at her. There was something weird about her. She wasn’t a normal human and she talked as if she knew who he was. The Trickster looked at the building again and he had let out a small sigh.

“looks like it.” The Trickster looked at her from the front doors and narrowed his eyes. “this is going to be a dumb question but how do you know all of this.” The Trickster said. He sensed great power from her and that made him wonder who exactly she was. “you’re not an angel, human, nor are you a demon so that leaves just a few things out there so what or who are you?” Gabriel had asked her.

The youngest archangel stared at her with showing no expression on his face. Everything seemed to be just completely different since he died. He wondered if this was how the Winchesters felt every time they came back to life. The youngest archangel needed to figure out how he got brought back and who brought him back. He could figure that it was his father but he didn’t know that for sure.

[war]

Eden heard what he asked her and didn't know if she should tell him, she was more afraid of him leaving her because she was war. Looking down a bit she was ashamed of the power she had, but she wasn't going to lie to an angel. And he guessed several things she wasn't and knew the man wasn't stupid. Her grey eyes looked at him and she offered him a smile. Trying to figure out exactly how to tell him, crossing her arms she sighed a bit. How many things she could tell him, but didn't want to bore the man.

"I know much Originally I was a witch who had special gifts, being able to see an angel's true form without my eyes burning out of my head. And the ability to get visions, and to heal people. Unfortunately a few months ago I woke up with a ring on my finger. Sam Winchester is sure I asked for my fate because of what I did. Sorry...I talk to much" She said shaking her head afraid he would get bored and tell her to go away. But she kept pressing herself to get the rest of it out.

"My name is Eden and...I am the new Horsemen War, Sam helped me gain control and my will has helped me make it where people don't fight each other."

[The Trickster]

The youngest archangel looked at the young girl. He raised one eyebrow as she spoke. He listened. So the girl was a witch. That was more Lucifer’s area than his. The Trickster continued to listen and she then stated that she woke up with a ring on her finger and then mentioned the youngest Winchester, Sam. So the girl was now a horseman. That was something new. The Trickster nodded to her understanding everything she was telling him. Even though he had left heaven he still kept some of the views and some of them was he wasn’t really fond of witchcraft.

She went on and said that Sam had helped her. Gabriel wanted to leave now. He didn’t want to be found by the Winchesters, not yet anyway. Eventually he would make himself known again but not right now, it was too soon. He still had his own questions to answer, his own questions that he wanted to seek out answers too.

“so you are now war. that’s interesting.” The Trickster said almost with a crooked smile. So the Winchesters actually listened to him about the horseman’s rings, though they seemed to have failed in getting war’s after they killed him. Gabriel wasn’t at all surprised. He knew that it would be a long shot. Maybe he was brought back to help them, or take care of it in his own way. No, that couldn’t be right. He needed to go up to talk to Joshua. Maybe his younger brother would be able to point him in the right direction.

[war]

She listened to him and sighed some and knew exactly what would probably happen. Looking up at the sky and smiled a little bit, if she was hunted for her ring she didn't know what she would do. Would she fight or would she give it up, the uncertain thing in life was how happy one person could become if they willed it. But she had a feeling she perhaps may be in danger. Looking back up at Gabriel she just gave him a smile looking back up at the hotel.

"I have a feeling Dean Winchester will be after me, I know he got all the horsemen's ring but one. But if he does I wont be fighting him, but I also sense Lucifer is back as well. Sure we don't know each other, but I don't like it when angels attack each other. Never liked your brother and forgive me for talking bad about him in case you still love him as your brother.

I just don't want him to go after you again, this world needs Gabriel the trickster and angel on our world. It would be a shame if something happened, so if you ever need me just call my name and I will be there." She figured he would never do it, but wanted to offer it any way. She smiled thinking about everything that was going to happen right now.

[The Trickster]

The youngest archangel looked at the young girl. She was talking again, and she mentioned Dean Winchester. She was probably right. Gabriel could see the eldest Winchester going after her because of what he had said, because he told Dean that the rings would get Lucifer back in the cage. The archangel let out a long sigh. He couldn’t hide that from her.

“look, I think I know why Dean would be after you. Before I died I handed them a DVD, Casa Erotica, and inside I told them how to trap the devil in the cage using the rings of the horseman. That would be the only reason I could think of why he would want you dead.” Gabriel said, and then he thought a moment. “or if you started anything lately that could be another thing. Its hard to get things through that man’s thick skull… him and his brother. Morons those two.” Gabriel gave a small shrug.

She then talked on about Lucifer and Gabriel made a sour face. He didn’t want to touch that subject yet. Lucifer, the subject of him and Gabriel’s death was still very sensitive and something that Gabriel didn’t want to talk about at all. “sorry, I don’t want to talk about that, talk about him. What happened, happened and that’s all.” Gabriel said not wanting her to talk about him anymore. She wouldn’t want to see this archangel angry at all.

The woman, who was now War offered him her help. Gabriel’s eyes narrowed and shook his head. “you wouldn’t want to be anywhere near me right now. I’m not all here yet, but I will keep that in mind.” Gabriel stated to her, not wanting to hurt her feelings at all. After all, she can prove to be more powerful than him.

[war]

She listened to him and was happy he was talking to her, but then when he gave her the heads up it actually meant a lot to her. Here he was speaking to a woman he didn't even know. And was happy for the heads up, though she didn't know what to do about Dean. She wondered if she had to die in order for it to work. But then noticed how he reacted when he brought up his brother. She looked down a little bit doing a lot of thinking.

"Well when it comes to Dean I do not know if I will fight him, though Is it possible for me to just help him with what he needs? I mean I did cause a little trouble for a few hours. While I was trying to calm my powers, that is why Sam came to me because he sensed the death in the air. So I am rather glad he came, though saying that I pretty much deserved this fate I don't know.

But as for mentioning your brother I hope you accept my apology you are right I had no reason nor right to bring him up. So the matter is dropped. Also if I didn't want to be around you right now Gabriel I would have left or turned the other way. You have a lot of life in you Gabriel and the offer will always stand if you need me. May not mean much coming from a stranger. But perhaps one day it will mean something coming from a friend" She said smiling.

[The Trickster]

The Trickster looked at the doors of the hotel as the girl, war, spoke more. When she said that she didn’t know if she would fight him or not, the Trickster looked back at her. Was she asking for his advice or something? He wouldn’t be able to help her with that. It was her choice not his. “do what ever you feel is necessary I guess.” was all that Gabriel could say to her about that. He really didn’t know what to say about it. That wasn’t really his concern to be honest. He would try to help her though. She seemed okay enough, especially since she had been here this long to actually talk to him. The archangel wasn’t used to that. He wasn’t used to people caring or giving a damn as to how he felt.

Eden then went on to apologize. She seemed sincere enough about talking about his brother. Gabriel was going to let it drop. He didn’t want to talk about it and she had said that she would drop the subject. She then went on and told him that she wouldn’t be here if she didn’t want to be around him. She had a point. She then went on and said that her offer stands and that perhaps they could be friends. He looked at her and gave a small laugh. “some day. I cant keep friends around for long though.” Gabriel then said to her wondering if maybe he could change something about his old life and maybe have people to call friends. He never needed them before and maybe he needed them this time around.

[war]

Eden smiled at him and thought for a moment, when he said he couldn't keep friends. Which didn't surprise her and right now he needed a friend. That much she could tell in how he was acting, so she thought for a second. Unsure how to say this without causing a problem. But he needed wisdom that came with time, only wisdom she had was perhaps to young to even really matter. Taking a deep breath she decided to say something to him. Because she knew a thing or two about needing someone and no one being there.

"Gabriel our world is uncertain as much as yours is, some people believe in angels and demons some do not. But everything I have seen, angels fighting each other. Demons going after them and mortals. We are all in this hell together, but what some forget is you have feelings. Your flesh and blood Gabriel sure you liked to play tricks on the Winchesters mostly, but you were never given a choice of what you are. You showed that you do have a heart, you feel. Arch Angel or not you have human emotions. You have been through a lot and frankly you are one of the angels I respect highly.

But you have to realize that even Angels need help from time to time, you need a friend. And I sure as hell am not running, no matter who comes. May sound crazy but I will be watching your back, even if you think I'm stupid who doesn't know what she is doing. But I do care, I just wish we could have a peace that I know will never happen. Not with how much corruption runs this world." She didn't think he would care to much, but she wanted him to know that she would have his back.
