Chapter 1: Your worst nightmare
The night was almost over, but the street were still crowded. It's New York after all. Not far from Central Park, a young woman was running. She was stressed out by school. The final exam were in not long and time seemed to miss. She'd been running for about two hour when she decided to go back to her house. She was three house away from hers when a black SUV blocked her path. Two men jump out and pulled her in the car. She resisted so the bigger man took a cloth out of his pocket. A minute later, the young woman was unconscious. They throw her in the car and speed away.
Behind a tree, six meters farther, a homeless man saw everything. He call the police with a payphone. Two police car, a CSU car and two trivialized car arrived some time later. Detective Beckett, Esposito, Ryan and Richard Castle climbed out of their car. Esposito and Ryan walk over the houses around to question neighbours, while Beckett and Castle interrogate the witness.
'' Can you describe me what happened?'' ask Beckett
'' The woman was running, probably to go back to her house, when a black SUV with no license plate blocked her path. Two men throw her in the car and drove away. I didn't see where they go.''
'' How did the men look like?''
'' They both have short dark hair and they were pretty tall too.''
''And the woman?'' Castle said
'' Long dark blond hair and green eyes. She have a dragon tattoo on her neck and pink sport clothes.'' Answer the man
'' You saw all that from here?'' ask Beckett
'' No, I saw her before. She was very good to me. She buys me food and drinks. She is so kind, I don't know who could want to hurt her. Her name is Dylan, if I remember well.''
'' Thanks.''
Both writer and detective walk back to Ryan and Esposito who were finished with the neighbours.
'' What did you find out?'' ask Beckett
'' Not much. At this time people are sleeping or clubbing.'' Said Ryan '' What about you?''
'' We may have a name. Dylan.''
When she said the name Ryan looked up worried.
'' What else?''
'' According to him, she has a dragon tattoo on her neck.''
'' damn…'' muttered Ryan
'' What?'' asked Castle
Ryan moved away from them and called someone. A cell phone, who was in a technician hand, started to ring, causing the technician to jump. Ryan knew it was hers. He hang up and clenched his fist before punching a tree beside him. He fall on his knees tears streaming down his face. Esposito ran to his friend.
'' Ryan?''
'' It's my sister.''
'' What?'' ask Esposito
'' The victim, it's my sister!''
