Rick in Kate walked into The Old Hunt, when the bartender Brian Elliott walked over to them with note in hand stating, "Kate… An older gentleman left this note for you!"
Kate takes the note and unfolds it reads
Kate
They will never find the bodies that I promise you.
Call it a wedding present to my favorite daughter in law
JH
Kate handed the note to Rick promptly took a match and lit the note on fire depositing it in a nearby trashcan.
Rick looked at Brian telling him, "We will need the best champagne house… We're celebrating our engagement!"
It was several hours later when all of the guests started to arrive Josh Davidson Kate's ex-boyfriend knew this was one of her favorite hangouts and tried to force his way in when one of the staff of The Old Hunt came to the door stating, "I'm sorry sir the bar is closed for a private function… It's by invitation only." She pointed to the sign in the window that said:
The Old Hunt congratulates
Richard Castle
Katherine Beckett
On their engagement
Josh tried to force his way past employee determined to see Kate when older gentleman with white hair and a weathered face stepped out of the shadows stating, "Josh Davidson isn't it… You're a cardiac surgeon aren't you?"
Josh looked at the man dressed in black the crew-cut stating, "And you would be!"
The elderly gentleman just said, "Who I am is not important right now…"
Rounding on Josh the man said in a dead matter of fact tone, "What is important is the fact that I can ruin your career."
The elderly gentleman grabbed Josh Davidson by the arm and fingers and said, "I know who you are, and I know you've been stalking Katherine Beckett!"
The man leaned into Josh Davidson close enough so that only he could hear him telling Josh, "Leave Kate Beckett alone!"
"What if I don't want to…" Josh said to the man.
The older gentleman looked right into his eyes and took one of Josh's fingers and broke it right at the first knuckle telling him, "Wrong answer… Let's try this again we still have nine more fingers."
Josh was beginning to wince at the sheer pain from the elderly gentleman's death grip on his elbow, moving from his broken pointer finger to his middle finger and the elderly gentleman stated, "You still have a chance to the surgeon… One broken fingers is nothing you'll recover quick enough!"
The elderly gentleman bent Josh's finger back point what was causing him excruciating pain killing him, "Leave Kate Beckett Alone!"
Josh was right in the middle of saying once again, "what if I – – –" for a second time he felt one of his fingers pop out of place and turn numb. The elderly gentleman broke one of his second finger telling Josh, "Eight more fingers to go… Leave Kate Beckett alone"
Through the pain Josh was finally able to say, "Okay… I'd rather have my career than 10 broken fingers!"
"Wise choice…" The elderly man said leaning in even further, and just to make his point he told Josh, "Don't even think reporting this to the police white haired man told Josh Davidson in a whisper, "Get police involved they will never find your body.
With a placeid smile the man said, "You walk out of the hospital one day and just disappear… That I promise you."
Josh Davidson looked at Jackson Hunt wide-eyed with fear in his eyes asking him, "Who the hell are you?
"I'm no one you want to get on the bad side of!" The elderly man told him.
The employee just looked at the elderly man and said, "Thank you…"
Jackson Hunt took two steps forward just as the woman said in a very low whisper, "Jackson Hunt… We've been expecting you; I must say Mr. Castle's description of you is quite accurate." Opening the door the woman said, "Right this way… Mr. Castle has a private room set up just for you he said something about you're not liking crowds Mr. Hunt!"
In the main room of The Old Hunt the engagement party was well underway as Richard Castle was handed a note by Brian Elliott it reads.
Jackson Hunt has arrived he is in his private function room
Both Rick and Kate excuse themselves for a moment making their way upstairs to the private function room as Rick said, "You're late dad"
Looking at Rick Jackson said "Sorry son… I had to help one of your employees with the gatecrasher!" Taking a sip of champagne Jackson Hunt said, "One of your exes I think Kate… Don't think he'll be doing surgery for a while…"
With raised eyebrow Katherine Beckett looked at the elder Castle asking him, "What did you do?"
Grinning like a Cheshire cat Jackson told Kate, "I told him to leave you alone… It took breaking to his fingers to convince him!"
"You do realize he could report the incident to the police right?" Kate stated.
"Don't think he will do that!" Jackson said. When the champagne flute on the table he told Kate, "I told him if he did they will never find his body."
It was right about that time that Kate got a note herself it read:
Kate
I'm sorry from the pain caused you, you will never hear from you again.
PS I don't know who your friend is but he's quite convincing
Josh
Katherine Beckett looked at Jackson Hunt telling him, "it appears you made quite the impression Josh finally got the message…"
It was who Castle said, "That and I think our friend Josh fears for his life."
Looking at Jackson, Kate stated, "Thanks dad!"
"You to go get back to friends… I will still be here… Oh son… congratulations on being accepted in into the BSU training program."
Taking a sip from his champagne flute's father told Castle, "The note from Capt. Gates helped… However I know people."
Kate looked at Castle and said, "Rick what's he talking about?"
"Well that's the other part of my surprise… I'm looking to becoming a profiler professionally" Smiling Richard Castle said, "I've been doing it for five years!"
Just as Jackson Hunt was about to leave Kate called after him, "where do we send…"
Giving the soon-to-be daughter-in-law a wink Jackson told her, "Richard knows how to get a hold of me!"
Having made their way back out to the party Esposito stated, "Bro where you been?"
Returning to the main room Castle stated in a penitrating tone, "Sorry one of my guests doesn't like crowds so I had to spend at least some time with them."
Esposito had this I am going to find out who this guest is look on his face when Kate turned Esposito and said, "Javier Esposito… Leave it alone, if Rick wants to tell you who is, he will!"
