"Cas, look what we got you." Sam says sitting beside Castiel on the floor.

Castiel looks up from his coloring book. "Did you get me another coloring book? I've almost finished this one."

"Nope, it's better."

Castiel raises his eyebrows. He wonders what could possibly be better than another coloring book. Sam pulls a plastic Wal-Mart bag out from behind him. Castiel leans over to look in to the bag. Sam pulls out three boxes. Castiel gasps.

"Woah," He pushes on to his knees. "You got me cars!"

"Yep," Sam hands one to Castiel. "Can you guess where they came from?"

Castiel looks at the van in the box. "It's the Scooby Van!"

"What about this one?" Sam hands him another.

"Bumblebee!" Castiel yells. He had watched Transformers two days ago and could not get enough of it. "What's the other one?"

Sam handed the last one to him, knowing he was going to freak out more than he did for Bumblebee.

Castiel looks at the car. He didn't know what it was straight away. He studies the car very intently, and then it hits him. Castiel's eyes grow wide. He stands up and runs in to the room full of books where Dean was sitting.

"Dean! Dean! Look!" Castiel runs up to him. Castiel holds the car box out in his hand towards Dean. "Baby!"

Dean looks at the toy car and smiles. "Woah, that looks exactly like Baby."

"Sam got it for me. Can you believe it? It's a small Baby!" Castiel does a little dance, which was actually just him stomping his feet. Castiel grabs Dean's hand; he starts pulling him towards the living room. "Let's go play with the others."

Dean laughs as he stands up, following after Castiel. "Okay, little man."

After unboxing the cars, Castiel and Dean pick their cars. Sam chose to be the announcer.

"Oh and here comes Castiel, in the Scooby Van, zipping by Dean, in the Impala." Sam says as he follows the action.

Castiel was running around the course that they had built while Dean had to crawl around, clearly Castiel had the advantage.

"Cas is so close to the finished line! He can almost taste it, folks!" Sam stands up and points to the little finish line.

Castiel looks behind him and sees Dean edging closer. He knew he couldn't make it to the finish line by just running. Castiel lays flat on his stomach and pushes the car off. The Scooby Van goes by the finish line a second before the Impala could.

"Castiel wins!"

Castiel stands up and jumps around. "Woo! Who's the best? I'm the best!"

Sam runs by and picks Castiel up. He starts dancing around with him, hopping from one foot to the other. "Cas is the best!"

Dean chuckles as he stands up. "I can't believe the darn Scooby Van beat my Baby."

"It's not about the car, Dean. It's about the driver, and I'm the best!" Castiel throws his fists up in to the air in victory.

"Alright, alright, I think you're letting your little win go to your head."

Sam puts Castiel down while laughing.

"You're just sad that you lost." Castiel says giggling.

Castiel abruptly stops laughing. He's expression changes from a look of joy to a look of concentration. Dean notices immediately. Dean bends down in front of him.

"Cas, what is it?" He asks, looking all over the kid's face to get a fill for what he was thinking.

"Something has changed." Castiel says. He looks around the room. "I hear something."

Dean looks back at Sam. "Do you hear anything?"

Sam shakes his head then asks. "What does it sound like?"

"A voice," Castiel says. He grips the Scooby Van tightly in his hand. "An angel,"

"Hello, fellas."

Dean and Sam turn around to find Gabriel sitting on the couch. He was leaned back with his right foot resting on his left knee.

"Gabe!" Castiel pushes pass Sam to Gabriel. He climbs on to the couch and hugs him.

"Hey, little brother." Gabriel smiles as he returns the hug.

Castiel lets go and sits beside him. Gabriel looks down at him.

"You know, I've been trying to reach you through the Angel Radio for the past two days."

"I only started hearing it." Castiel puts his hand close to Gabriel's face. "Look what Sam got me! It's the Scooby Van. Isn't it cool?"

"Yeah, that's awesome, man." Gabriel looks to Sam and Dean who moved to sit in chairs. "Boys, I've come warn you about the upcoming days."

Dean glances at Sam and Castiel. "What's supposed to happen?"

"Well, recently, word has gotten out that there is a little baby angel running around on Earth." Gabriel begins. "And to demons, baby angels are a delicacy. One hasn't been made for millions of years."

"So demons are gonna try and get Cas." Dean says leaning up on to his knees with this elbows.

"That's what seems to be happening." Gabriel looks at Castiel.

Castiel looks towards the ground and crosses his arms. "Mmmph,"

Gabriel puts his hand on Castiel's back. "You alright?"

"That's what he does when he's nervous." Sam says.

"Is there anything else we need to know?" Dean asks.

"No, I don't believe so." Gabriel shakes his head.

Castiel slips off the couch. "I'll be back." He runs towards the stairs before he has to take each step one-by-one.

When Gabriel sees Castiel's foot lift off the last step, he leans forward. "Has he shown any signs of angelness?" He asks.

Sam shakes his head. "No, he actually seems to be more like an actual human kid more and more every day. He is eating. He really likes TV and coloring."

"That's what I was afraid of." Gabriel says. He takes a breath. "It seems that the little spell I put on Castiel is working too well. He was only supposed to be a kid for a few days."

"He's been a kid for almost two weeks." Dean says.

"I know that. I'm getting close to finding the reverse spell. It'll probably just take me a couple more days."

"Why did Cas need to be turned in to a kid in the first place?" Dean asks.

"He didn't tell you." Gabriel says looking at Sam and Dean.

"Tell us what?" Sam was leaning over on to his knees.

"You know how Castiel is not the best at making choices?" Gabriel begins. "Well some of our angel brothers and sisters are showing resentment towards my baby brother. They were walking all over him, and he was just letting them. Up there," He points us. "It's like high school, but worse, because you can't go home to escape it all. Dear Ole Dad told me to take Castiel away for a while so he could settle everything upstairs."

"So your brothers and sisters are just being pissy." Dean says.

"Pretty much,"

"But why couldn't Castiel be up there while all of this settling is going down?" Sam asks.

"It got too much for him. I'm not even sure if he remembers any of it right now." Gabriel says then he shrugs. "Also, something else is happening."

"What-"

"Gabe, look what I colored yesterday." Castiel says as he starts his descend down the stairs.

Gabriel quickly snaps his fingers and then Castiel was sitting beside him.

Castiel huffs out a breath. "Well that was easier."

Gabriel sits up and looks at Castiel's hand. "Is that a rainbow platypus?"

"Yeah!" Castiel holds it out towards him. "I colored it for you because I know you like them, and you always said that rainbows were the coolest."

"Thank you, baby brother." Gabriel says as he takes it from him.

"Are you sure you like it?" Castiel asks. He looks up at his big brother with wide eyes.

"It's real cool." Gabriel folds the paper in half two times. "I'll keep it in my back pocket for safe keeping. So it's always with me."

"Okay,"

Gabriel stands up. "Well, losers, I've gotta bolt. I have angel duties to attend to and what not." He points to Sam and Dean. "Keep him safe."

Castiel looks at the trees as they pass by quickly. He tries to count the cars that go by, too. Dean is gripping the steering wheel lightly. He was leaning back in the bench seat comfortably. Dean didn't know how to explain it but being around child Castiel brought a sense of calm around him. He could think clearly and breathing seemed easier. Castiel felt this when he was around Dean, too. Dean thought it was because Castiel was an angel and that baby angels just had the power to do that. Castiel thought it was because Dean was his best friend in the whole world.

The radio station ends the transition in to the next song. Dean, instantly knowing the song by the simple guitar intro, turns the volume up. The song fills the car even more than it did before. Castiel swings to the music a bit, rocking side to side in his car seat. Dean glances in to the rear view mirror and grins.

"Do you like the song, Cas?"

"Yeah," Castiel answers as he stares out the window while swinging side to side. "What song is this anyway?"

"Peace of Mind by Boston," Dean says before singing along.

Castiel shifts his eyes from the window to Dean. It was always a rare occasion to actually hear Dean Winchester sing. Castiel watches and listens intently so he can replay this moment when things get bad.
