For the third time that day someone was ringing the bell. Cas walked in the hallway and stared at the door. “Daphne and Zoey are not here. Maybe you should come back at a more appropriate time”
“Emmanuel, open the door”
It was Meg and she sounded scared to death. Cas quickly opened the door and looked at a terrified Meg. Before he could ask what was going on she threw herself in his arms and started crying. Cas, not knowing what else to do, tapped her on her back.
“This feels rather uncomfortable” Cas said difficult. “Perhaps you could let go of me?”
Meg let go and took a step back. “I’m sorry” she sobbed and she wiped her eyes. “There’s been a huge car accident and everyone is dead”
“Friends of you?” Cas asked.
“Just my new neighbors” Meg sobbed.
“I feel terrible about this” Cas said. He sighed. “I wished Daphne and Zoey would come home”
“Why? You don’t think I’m going to hit on you again, do you?” Meg asked.
“No, I have a strange feeling in my stomach” Cas said.
“You’re worried” Meg said.
Cas nodded. His face stiffened. “I hear something” he said.
“What?” Meg asked, though she knew perfectly well what Cas was hearing. Cas walked past Meg and opened the front door. He walked outside and a few yards further he saw a red van with red and yellow triangles on the back and a yellow van with yellow and green stripes.
Meg followed him outside.
“Who did you say had an accident?” Cas asked slowly.
“They’re dead, Emmanuel” Meg said. Cas wanted to run, but Meg grabbed his arm. “Let me go” Cas commanded.
“They are dead!” Meg repeated, raising her voice. “The car exploded. They burned. You don’t want to remember Daphne looking like that, trust me”
Cas jerked his arm and pushed Meg away. Meg, who couldn’t give her true identity away, fell backwards on purpose. She watched Cas running of.
Ten, maybe eleven seconds later Cas stopped. There were people all around and the police was trying to keep them to a distance. Cas tried to make his way through the mass, pushing people aside. When he saw a body covered with a white sheet he knew it was Daphne. He wanted to go to her, but a deputy stopped him. “Sir, I need you to stay behind the tape” she said.
“I have to help her” Cas said and he pushed the woman away. He walked to Daphne and kneeled. He could still hear her breathing. “Please, don’t die” he said hoarse. He caressed her hair or what was left of it and when his fingers touched her forehead something magnificent happened.
Slowly but surely Daphne’s body healed and her hair grew back.
When her body was in perfect condition again Daphne opened her eyes and gasped for air.

They heard the door close and wondered who came barging in, until a familiar, female and British voice solved the mystery.
“Anyone home?” Rebekah called from downstairs.
“Ugh” Damon sighed. “I’ll go” He stood up and walked to the door, but when he wanted to open it, the door was slammed in his face and Rebekah barged in. She held a guy in her right hand and a blood bag in her left hand.
“What are you doing here?” Elena asked tired.
“I came to apologize” Rebekah explained flighty, while she tossed the bag to Damon. “I was wrong to bite you. It’s just that I busted Stefan smooching with that vamp strumpet and you look like her, so I got carried away. I don’t understand what it is that draws Stefan to women with your appearances. You’re not even that pretty”
“I appreciate your honesty” Elena commented sarcastically.
“Hey, I’m as open as your legs were last night” Rebekah replied blunt and Elena’s cheeks turned red.

The next morning.
Jo woke up, because someone was banging the door.
“Mr. Allen? Open the door!” a female voice said.
Jo stumbled out of bed and wiped her eyes. She walked to the door and opened it. There were two inspectors, a man and a woman.
“Good morning, miss. I’m inspector Roberts, this is my colleague inspector Williams” Isabel said, showing her badge. “We need to talk to Emmanuel Allen. We were told we could find him here”
Jo frowned and shook her head. “I don’t know anyone with that name. You have the wrong house”
Inspector Williams searched in his bag and conjured a picture. “Maybe this might help you?” he said. Jo’s eyes widened and she took the picture. “I know him” she admitted. “But his name’s not Emmanuel. It’s Castiel”
