A/N: I just want to say, before you start reading, that this is my first piece. So no judging my writing skills lol. But in all seriousness I would like to say that I do not own the characters in this story, I am merely writing a story based off of the television show Castle, which I also do not own.

Feel free to leave any suggestions as to what I should add or fix, or if you just want to leave a comment, then whatever, please do. Anything and everything will help me develop my writing skills. enough rambling, onto the story!

"Hey Castle?! Where did you put the car keys?" Beckett called from the living room. There was barely any food left in the fridge and pantry, and if Beckett didn't get food soon, they were sure to starve.

"I don't know!" Castle called back "Weren't you the one who had them last?"

"No, you took the car out last night when you went to pick Alexis up from that party"

Castle spat the remainder of his toothpaste into the sink and rinsed off his toothbrush. While he walked back to his bedroom to search his pant for the keys, Becketts phone rang.

'Oh,another case. Possibly the plot-line for my next book' thought Castle. These days is was getting hard to come up with a good plot for one of his crime novels. He would have to endlessly search his mind, which almost always ended up in a massive mess of scribbles on his page, and a headache.

"Hey Espo...hmmm...okay, got an address? Alright, gimme fifteen minutes"

"Case?"

"You betcha. Murder in the south east. But first we gotta find the keys!"

A lightbulb suddenly lit up in Castles mind, reminding him that he had placed the keys in the back, left-hand pocket of his best pants. He grabbed them and they set off for the scene.

"hey Espo, what'cha got for me." Beckett said as they walked over to meet the victim of what seemed like an exciting case.

"Victim was in his late twenties, went by the name of Rodger Mason according to his drivers license. Gunshot to the back of the neck,multiple defence wounds on the wrists and forearms, indicating a struggle."

"Huh, okay. so maybe he was mugged or robbed, decided to fight back, but ended up dead in an alley."

Castle could see a great book here. A man dead in an alley, Possibly robbed or jumped. His thoughts trailed off as to what he could do with this book.

"Castle! Snap out of it. We're going back to the station."

A/N: Ooh, we've already gotten our first murder. I wonder how he was killed. Seriously, I have no idea how I'm gonna plan this one out. But lemme tell you this, its not gonna be part of a robbery or a gang fight.

On a good note, Castle is on tomorrow night! YAY! I might have an update within a couple days. I'm quite forgetful. If you enjoyed this chapter, Dont forget to leave a comment. BYEEE 3
