He's Dead Once Again

Beckett's team were called to a barber shop on East Grand Street, four blocks away from the Rockafeller Center Ice Ring.

When a male body was found behind the back entrance, it was late evening. When the cleaning crew cleaning up the shop, were able to noticed the body behind the garbage dump.

The two women screamed rather loudly when they were throwing out the trash. They had no choice in the matter to call 911 and the police.

However the women really couldn't tell on whether or not the male body was dead or alive.

It wasn't until the police and the fire department, along with an ambulance to figure out just what exactly was going on.

When the technician came over with their equipment. Finding out the male was still alive, just barely. Everyone had to clear out the garbage around the body, and get the male onto the gurney to check for further injuries.

Someone had asked. Where was the nearest hospital, the technician had said Rockafeller Center hospital for special surgery. They have one of the best emergency rooms besides Manhattan Medical Center.

"We will be taking him there, since it's the closest hospital right now." The technician says to everyone.

With none of the detectives involved with the case, since their was no murder involved at the moment. Including having to be quite strange as well.

Kate Beckett was sick as a dog with the morning sickness having to be 12 weeks along, her poor husband Richard Castle really felt horrible for his wife. He's tried giving her gingle ale to help with the throwing up, but after awhile, it had finally stopped today. Thank god!

While he was able to continue on with his work in his office to write, plus stay in contact with Haley and Alexis at the P.I. Office. They were really busy with the recent case load, and had to hire two more employees to help out with the field work most of all.

When the phone rang. Castle picked up the phone, since his wife was in the bathroom once again cleaning up afterwards.

"Castle, how can I help you?" He says looking at the caller I.D. to be from the 12th precinct coming across the screen of the cell-phone.

"This is Ryan, I need to speak with Captain Beckett about a body that was found. Actually still alive behind the 411 East Grand Street Barber shop, they are taking the male Alan Masters to the Special Surgery hospital having to be the closets at the moment." He says rather quickly.

"They are at the scene for where Alan Masters was found. I 'm at the hospital having just arrived, the emergency room doctors are looking over Alan Masters right now. I believe a Doctor Ellins is in charge of his case."

"All right Ryan, I will see you soon." He ends the call to check up on his wife, who was now getting ready to leave." Are you feeling better Kate, Ryan just called with a strange one?"

Castle was able to explained what was going on with finding this Alan Masters to a most curious Kate Beckett.

Mean while at the court house...

Lawyer Celeb Brown was finishing up the last of his talk with the jury, to help save his client having been accused of killing some one. When the evidence was all hear say from the two witnesses involved.

When Judge Andrews working the high court for the last ten years. Ordered the court to be in recess with the jury going to be back into the jury room, to check with the evidence for the last time before deciding either way.

When he was outside of the court room. He'd gotten word from his partner, about a new potential client having been found still alive his name was Alan Masters.

It was at this point.

He heard later the jury was stuck at 6 a piece, and needed more time, so the case would be going into the next day.

This would give him the chance to check into this Alan Masters at the hospital near the Rockafeller Center Ice Ring, and maybe he would probably run into Captain Kate Beckett and her team from the 12th precinct.

He packs up his brief case to head on over to the hospital.

Weatherwise it was just lovely for the middle of April. Captain Kate Beckett and her husband walked into the emergency room looking for a patient name Alan Masters. She showed her badge, letting her know, just who she was, as with her husband Richard Castle.

The admitting nurse showed her the way to the area Alan Masters was being taken care of in the emergency room.

It would take a few minutes to find Masters towards the back. And having to be extremely busy with walk-ins that were in dire-need of being taken care of right away.

When Beckett and Castle walked over. She never expected to find the one man to run into it, lawyer Celeb Brown, Loksat's stooge.

"Celeb Brown, what are you doing here in the first place?" Beckett asked with a serious, annoyed question, along with her husband raising his eye brow with seeing him again.

"I am checking on my new client Alan Masters, the doctors claimed that my patient was poisoned inside the Barber Shop getting a hair cut to be left for dead outside in the back alley."

"Oh really!; I will be the judge to that Mr. Brown, I need to speak with Alan Masters. So if you don't mind right now to please leave."

He was annoyed with her along with her tone of voice with ordering him out of the emergency room.

"Fine!, I am going for now, excuse me, I will be going back to the court house." He packed up this things once again to leave the emergency room and head for his vehicle.

While Kate Beckett and Richard Castle went to speak with this Alan Masters.
