Well here is another story! I'm excited for it! About the 3xk returning. I realize this is a really short chapter but after chapter 2 it gets a lot longer. I PROMISE! Just give it a try. :D Well lets see how this goes!

Disclaimer- I do not own Castle. :( Booo...

"Is it true? The 3xk-or should I say, Jerry Tyson- is back?" Castle asked concerned while walking into the young blonde's apartment.

Beckett sighed. "By the looks of it," she replied. Castle walked to where he found Beckett standing next to their John Doe girl with Lanie crouched over her. "Lanie?" She said allowing for the ME to start.

"Well, as you can see, she is laid out as in a coffin. You can see here," she points to the girl's neck, "That the COD was by being strangled. Most likely by the looks of it, green and white nylon should do the trick and how the lines from the rope is slightly slanted to the left, but I'll have to take her back to the Morgue just to be positive. TOD, I guess was from about 2:30 to 4 AM.

"Thanks Lanie." She nodded her head in a manner of saying 'Your welcome'.

"Her name is Debby Mahoney," Esposito started. "35, lives alone, but has a boy friend down the street named," he opened his flip book for his notes on the man's name. "Steven Jones."

Ryan picked up, "She is a school teacher. Her dad died when she was 14, and her mom lives right down the road."

"Who found her?" Castle asked.

"The owner. He said that she didn't pay rent the last couple weeks so he came up to ask her about it and found her dead." Ryan replied.

"What's his name?" Kate asked.

Esposito said, "William Cramer. Interesting person."

"Thanks." He nodded. "Ryan I want Debby's boyfriend and Mother at the precinct by the time I'm done with Lanie down at the morgue."

"On it." Then he walks away to fulfill his job.

Esposito spoke up. "Her office desk was messy; draws were open, cabinets too. Everything in the house is so clean except that room.

Beckett peers over to see part of the office and nods. "I'll talk to talk about that once I meet her family." Esposito nods. "Come on Castle, let's go talk to William Cramer."

"Awe, can't we just track down Jerry? We already know he's the Triple Killer," wined 9 year old Castle.

"If we could do that, he would already be in custody. Besides, we have nothing to track him with!" There was a long pause.

"He took Ryan's phone!" Castle shouted. Some people even turned to look at him. "Once Jerry knocked him out, he took Ryan's badge, more bullets, and his phone!"

"Well it can't be in service if he kept the same number."

"It may not be in service, but now he has everyone's number."

Now that I think about it," Beckett started. "I can track Ryan's old phone's ESN (Electronic Serial Number). That might help give us the location of it but the battery

needs to be in. I would also need to talk to Ryan first though." She started to walk towards William as she started to about 2 minutes ago before this little conversation started.

"Wait up!" Castle jogged over to catch up with her. "Why do you need to talk to Ryan first?" Wondered Castle.

Beckett halted in her spot and turned to look at him. "Because 1. It's his phone, and 2. Because he'd need to log into his phone's account online, find his old phone, get the code, then, we can track it.

"Oh," Castle said unknowingly.

"Wow, you of all people didn't know that?" She asked shocked.

"Uh," he started looking around the dull apartment room. "I knew, I, just uh wanted to see if, you knew!" He replied surprised at his own self.

"Mmm hmm." They finally reached William. "Mr. Cramer? Can we talk?"

Annoyed he answered, "Detective? I already told the other two what I know. Uh, Detective's Ryan and Esposoto?"

"It's Esposito, and I'm going to ask you more questions and you are going to answer them," She added intently.

"Fine fine. What? I'm a very busy man," he announced sharply.

"At home. With my wife. Sleeping. I work the morning shift, so I got up at 6 and got here around 7."

"When you got here, did you notice anything out of the ordinary?" Castle questioned.

"When I come in, I check on the computer to see if any customers are keeping up on their rent. When I ran by Debby Mahoney's name, I remembered I made a mental note to stop by her room to check up on her.

Beckett spoke up, "Was there anything out of the ordinary besides the rent not coming?"

Will sighed and rolled his eyes. "Well, for the past week or so, he has been getting home late. She said it was nothing but by the look in her eye's I knew something was wrong but I didn't confront her. I-I need to go." With take he marched away like an angry soldier.

Beckett's eyes were raised way to far up. Looked as though they were about to go into her hair line. Castle looked as though he saw something in the distance but couldn't make it out. He was confused, and shocked, they both were. They both could feel something off about will.

They turned to face each other a second just to see if there was a hint of the same expression on each others face. That second turned into 5 seconds, then 10, 15! Suddenly they broke away confused. "uh. Lets go," stated an unsure Beckett and they walked out of the apartment building.

'It's clear that you and Castle have something real, and your fighting it. But trust me, putting your job a head of you heart is a mistake. Risking our hearts is why were alive. The last thing you want is to look back oh your life and wonder, if only.' -Royce (R.I.P)
