So this kind of came to me when my friend had me tell her stories as she drove home and I couldn't think of anything so I went to the books to help me. This is my first time writing for Warehouse 13 and apparently crossovers come more easily to me to think of.

Detective Kate Beckett was barely listening to famous novelist Richard Castle as they walked to the crime scene. He had begun spinning some story about a jealous bride, or some such thing, and her 'going crazy' on her new husband.

"What have we got Lanie?" she questioned the medical examiner.

"4 while males, ages 28-31, cause of death varies. Oh, and lots of witnesses," she said nodding her head towards the guests of the wedding. Looking over her shoulder, Kate sighed and shook her head, 'today is going to be a long day' she thought. But as she began striding towards them Detectives Javier Esposito and Kevin Ryan caught up with them.

"Talked to Carla Nolan, the passing jogger that called it in, said she was going for a run like she did every day and was unaware this area was blocked because of the wedding," Ryan began.

"Then she heard yelling and screaming. Jogging over she saw four men being beaten by the wedding guests" Esposito finished.

Kate looked at them then over to where Ms. Nolan was standing. "Check her out and then let her go. Let's start with the bride," she said to Castle as Esposito and Ryan walked away. Kate hid her startled expression when she saw the bride, she looked barely old enough to be getting married, but they both know that looks can be deceiving.

"Excuse me Mrs." Kate waited for her to fill in the blank.

"Miller, Ms. Ashleigh Miller."

"Ms. Miller. I'm detective Kate Beckett, and this is Richard Castle. I'd like to ask you a few questions about what happened, is that ok?"

"Yeah."

"Can you tell me what happened?"

"My husband and his groomsmen were brought to justice," she said bluntly.

Kate was definitely curious now.

"It had to be done, the justice said so," Mr. Miller put in.

"Excuse me for one moment," she motioned Esposito and Ryan over, "Have you talked to any of the guests or the minister?"

"Yeah, what's up?" Ryan asked.

"What did he say?"

"He said that 'they were condemned and executed for their evil deeds'."

"Freaky" Castle interjected.

"All these people need to be finger printed," Kate declared.

"Well this should be fun," Esposito replied.


Kate needed more information so she and Castle took the bride and her father to an interrogation room and left Ryan and Esposito to help finger print.

"Ok, I need you to start at the beginning."

"I was walking through a forest trying to find my bridegroom's home-"

"You didn't know where he lived?" Castle asked incredulously.

"You ask about that when she's talking about a forest and her bridegroom"Kate whispered to him.

"No, anyways eventually I reached a house but no one was there so I searched and I found an old lady in the basement. She told me that my bridegroom was not what I thought her was, he and his men were cannibals and they were going to kill me. We heard them come back and she hid me. They cut this poor girl up and one of them noticed a ring but it would not come off her finger so her chopped her finger off and it fell in my lap. The old lady distracted them with dinner and she drugged them so we could escape. Then today I was telling this story and they tried to run-"

"Cowards"

She looked at her father, "but they, the guests stopped them."

"We had to," her father said, "There was no way we could allow them to continue. We brought them before the justice and he convicted them and sentenced them to death."

Castle's mouth was blatantly hanging open and Kate was having a hard time keeping her eyes at a normal size. This was one of the weirder stories they had ever heard.

"Do you have any proof of your story?" Kate asked ruefully.

"Yes," she dug in her purse," this," she opened her hand to reveal the girl's finger and ring.

"Well, certainly did not see that coming," Castle whispered to Kate. This case was certainly becoming weirder than any case Kate had worked before. Taking the finger into evidence she told Esposito and Ryan to check out the victim and company.

"Would you be able to take us to his house?"

"Sure."

"Why can't we just look it up?" Castle asked her.

"Because I want to see what she did."

Kate put the father in a holding cell and told Esposito and Ryan the plan. Walking out the precinct Ms. Miller turned the opposite way. They had looked up the address but were still going to follow the plan.

"Where are you going?" Kate asked tersely grabbing her wrist.

"Home. It's the only way I know to get there."

Reaching her home they started off into the "forest".

"How do you know the way?" Castle asked her.

"I marked the path with peas and lentils see," she pointed at the ground. They played along since her forest was buildings and the peas and lentils were trash. Here we are."

Sure enough they had arrived at a house, "ok," Kate said, "Ryan, Esposito take the back. Castle and I and Ms. Miller will go in the front."

"Got it."

The place was trashed. What appeared to be dried blood everywhere, some more fresh. This would need to be checked out. Kate quickly called CSUs and Lanie. Ryan and Esposito did find a few suspicious things in a shed but not much else in the back. By the time everyone had arrived Kate had Handcuffed Ms. Miller and Castle was watching her.

"Excuse me," she began calling.

By the third time Castle heard her, "yes?"

"Who are you people and what are you doing in James' house?"

"Uh. . .you don't remember?"

"No. That's why I asked. What happened?"

"I just need. . . uh. . .um. . . stay right here." He hurried around the house looking for Kate. He saw her out back through a window, "she doesn't remember what happened." He shouted quickly. All the heads turned towards him.

"What?" She asked coming towards him.

"We were sitting there and all of a sudden she's like,' who are you?' 'what are you doing in James' house?'"

"Where is she now?"

"In the room."

"WHY AM I HANDCUFFED? I WANT MY LAWYER!" She screamed. Kate and Castle calmly walked into the room. "WHY DID YOU HANDCUFF ME?" She screamed at Castle.

"Oh I didn't she did," he said pointing at Kate.

"This is illegal!"

"No its not, now listen to me. We are going to take you down to the station. We just have a few questions to ask you."

"I want my lawyer."

"Alright call him from the precinct," she undid the handcuffs and led her to the car.

Kate and Castle walked into the interrogation room and filled her in on what had transpired before her 'amnesia'. Gauging her reaction, she seemed extremely upset about her husband but did not believe that her or her guests had acted in such a manner. They showed her a quick clip of their first interrogation, she became even more confused. And she couldn't remember what she had been doing for the night before. They left her to talk to her lawyer and a psychologist.

"Either she really doesn't remember or is a really good actress," Castle said sitting in his seat.

"Mhh-uh" was Kate's reply.

"Yo, Beckett" their heads shot up.

"Yeah."

"At least 4 sets of remains have been recovered from James Roberts' backyard."

"Curiouser and curiouser" Castle said looking at the murder board.


Artie tossed the file he was looking at aside while his scanner beeped. It wasn't much but it definitely would be something to watch.

Please, Please, Please tell me what you think.
