Dean Winchester's soul clings to his true form, he can hear the soul gently humming as his wings take them further out of perdition. Castiel can see where the demons have tainted the soul, Alaistar's hands have darkened the souls heart and blackened it's outer form. The soul sighs as his wings surround it, his feathers gently tracing it's back.

He senses the bodies grave site and is there instantly sitting astride the corpse as he gently disentangles the soul from himself. His wings flutter pressing the soul back against him, he feels it's tempting warmth upon his face.

His hand grasps at the rotten flesh, making it whole once more, the soul tenses wrapping itself around his torso. His wings rebel for a moment pushing the soul into his arms before collapsing behind his shoulders, his free arm wraps around the souls back.

Castiel can hear the bodies heart like a trapped bird in a cage, his hand is burning an imprint on the flesh so he replaces his hand on the souls neck cradling it as he leans down. It shivers against him as it melds back into it's body. He watches the body breathe and feels his brothers call to him, he leaves Dean Winchester to hear his new orders.
