Orion

"Chuck" roars Dean and hurriedly throws the papers off the table. Puffing, Ketch and Castiel place Orion on the table. "Quite a heavy guy." "His epic and cosmic powers take most of its weight," says Castiel. Ketch looks up in surprise. "Cosmic?" Castiel nods. "Goddamn God," Dean roars again and throws his coat over the chair. "Do you want me to go to the store because we have no more fruit juice" Chuck begins as he walks downstairs? He stops abruptly and turns around. "Chuck" Dean growls as God tries to flee.

Ketch grabs the mighty man's narrow shoulders and drags him back. "Sorry Lord." "When were you going to tell us, your son was in the coffin ?!" Chuck stutters nervously. "What in my name have you done? No no .... This is catastrophic ..." "Stop whining Chuck. What's wrong with him?" Chuck sighs. "The black plague. And the seven plagues ... He's responsible for it." "Not that way" protests Dean. "Wait what?" Chuck nods. That's why he was in the box. "What's physically wrong with him Chuck? Why is he KO" asks Sam impatiently.

Chuck shuffles carefully towards Orion as if stalking a wild beast. Trembling, he reaches out and places his hand on Orion's forehead. As soon as their skins touch, Orion opens his eyes. Blindingly bright light shines from his eye sockets. "Wow" Dean shouts when his wings open and knock Dean down."Dean" yells Mary. "Bloody hell" shouts Ketch and helps Dean up. Orion slowly stands up and looks into Chuck his eyes. "Hello son" whispers Chuck nervously.

Orion's lip trembles as he rushes forward. "Orion" John roars. "Orion" chuck squeaks. Orion's hands are closed tightly around Chuck's throat. "Orion, let him go" Dean shouts. "This is not the way," John orders. Jack rushes into the room with Lucifer and Gabriel by his side. "Orion" whispers Gabriel. "Time to go," Lucifer squeaks and disappears. "The devil is scared," protests Dean. Gabriel swallows. "Orion" he shouts. Orion looks nervously over his shoulder. "Orion ... I understand you. I want to kill Dad too. Believe me. But I put that aside. Trust me. That's the best." "You have not been locked up in a coffin for seven hundred years. Air and wind, sun and earth ... all taken away .. For nothing" Orion roars angrily. John wants to pull the angel away from chuck but with a simple slap of his wing, he throws John across the room. Mary rushes towards her husband with fear while Dean points his gun at Orion.

"Orion" whispers Aria. "Aria" protests Castiel. Aria pushes his hand off her arm and steps forward. "Orion" she repeats and puts her hand on his shoulder. Orion gives her a soft look. "Please. Give him a chance ... Please." Orion abruptly let's go of Chuck and steps back. Gabriel smiles cautiously. "Chuck" asks Mary and helps the god up with John's help. Coughing Chuck looks at Orion. He gently caresses Aria's jaw as his wings disappear into his back. Aria smiles and takes his hand. "Thank you" she whispers. "I do everything for you" answers Orion. Ketch smiles wryly. "I suppose," he mutters and leaves the room.

"Uncle Orion," asks Jack politely. Orion looks up. "Uncle?" "There's so much I need to tell you," Dean replies, patting his shoulder. "Take it easy" Mary recommends and looks at Orion. "Let's get settled first. How about some new clothes' sweetie? I can wash those. I think you have Dean his size." "If you wash them, you'll have nothing left" scoffs Sam. "Awesome" Dean sighs. John slaps him on the back of the head. Orion looks at Mary suspiciously before he follows her. "You did well," whispers Sam. Chuck looks at her. "You're the Elf. How come you have so much power over him?" "I ... I have no power at all over anyone" protests Aria. "Orion would never let go if you hadn't." "Unfortunately, I have to agree with Daddy" sighs Gabriel. "If Orion wants something he, does it and nothing or anyone stops him. Apparently, that has changed. I wonder why that is." Aria shrugs. "I ... I don't know" she blows and walks out of the bunker. She lets her back fall against the strong wall with a sigh. She looks at the stars and bites her lip. She knows Gabriel is right. She felt it immediately. She and Orion ... there is a connection. And more. Never before has she felt like this. Never before has anyone been so special to her. How come? Why does she feel that way towards a man she has only just met? Her father would never accept this. But whatever. She would never see him again. Never again... This was a long time for her. She lets her head hang in a sigh. "Oh Orion" she whispers softly.

"Yes," a voice suddenly sounds. "God" curses Aria. "No, he is inside. It is just me" answers Orion. Aria laughs. "Sorry, you scared me. "Forgive me," says Orion and comes to stand next to her. She looks at him in surprise. He is dressed in light jeans and a black buttoned shirt. "You look good" she jokes and looks at his sneakers. Orion scoffs. He looks at the stars. "It's weird you know" Aria begins and continues. "It must be weird right? To be out of that box."

"Quite the opposite" Orion Starts. "Since I've been free, sunrise, the call of a bird. Rare pleasures indeed. "How are we even talking, I mean? Do all angels talk English?" Orion turns towards her. "To me, all languages sound the same." "Must be a pretty handful on a European vacation" jokes Aria. Orion smiles softly. "You're clever" jokes Orion. "Mostly Curious" answers Aria. Orion his smile fades away softly. "I would kick myself if I didn't ask this" Aria starts. Orion looks down to meet her eyes. "What is he like? "By he you mean" Orion answers and tilts his head to the sky. "Yup, the almighty, Chuck, or whatever you call him. " "The concept of names does not apply." Aria looks at his deep eyes. In the moonlight, they reflect soft yellow. "All there is, is what is. You will never be satisfied by my answers." "Well, not if you answer as that" Aria laughs. "Come on. Does heaven exist? Why are we here?" Orion closes his eyes a short while. "Did creation really take seven days?" "No" answers Orion and turns. "No to creation taking seven days or no to you won't answer my questions." Orion looks deeply at her again. A playful smile rests on his lips. "What about dinosaurs," she asks. "You have ever seen a dinosaur?" "Before my time," he says. "But I didn't always walk the earth. "I served in the angelic host a long time." "Served as past tense. You are off the reservation?" "I broke ranks. That is why I was in that box." Sadness reflects in his eyes. "It was not an easy decision." "I can't begin to imagine" whispers Aria. Orion smiles. He waves his hand across the sky. "Wow" answers Aria and looks at the beautiful colors in the sky. "Is that?" "My star" he answers. Aria looks amazed at the beautiful cosmic art. "It is.. Wonderful." While she is gazing at the beautiful stars he gazes at her face. Softly lit up by the starlight. "Let's get inside before you get cold," he says. Aria looks at him and nods. He is right. She is getting cold. How did he know? She looks gently at the stars one more time before following him inside the bunker.
