I need a scene like this in Season nine.

winjennster:

Dean is laying on the ground, still, unmoving, blood caked on the left side of his face, left eye swollen shut.

Three demons look up, growling at the approach of the former Angel of the Lord, angel blade firmly grasped in his hand.

“You can’t help him Castiel,” one of them hisses, “you’re not an angel anymore. You’re useless.”

Cas’s body shifts, shoulders tossed back, head tucked, every muscle on alert, and he strides forward confidently, the demons retreating slightly on sheer instinct, and he puts himself between them and Dean, raising the blade slightly as he moves, a fierce, hard look in his blue eyes.

“Care to test that theory?”
