Hey guys the next few chapters will be a bit shorter than previous and there will be some time in between each chapter being posted. Thanks for awesome reveiws and all ou guys that are following it!

Once the team was inside the home they each took a room and cleared it. Kate positioned herself at the doorway of the master bedroom, she turned sharply and walked in. A shot fired hitting the wall a few inches from shoulder. She ducked behind an armoire and searched the room with any reflecting object. The boys came rushing in but quickly knelt down when they saw Kate. Esposito filed in between the bed and the wall with Ryan right behind him. From the boys positon they could see the closet door cracked open. Ryan ran to one side and Esposito the other. Kate moved quickly and pressed herself agaisnt the wall of the bathroom door. They boys cleared the closet and then stood against the bathroom door with Kate. Kate slide her hand along side the door slowly opening it. The boys took aim as the door continued to open. Esposito could see the suspect's foot on the other side of the team rushed in quickly towards their suspect.

"Hands in the air! Drop your weapon!"Espostio screamed.

Ryan quickly holstered his gun and cuffed the suspect. The boys picked him where he was standing and hauled him outside. Kate still had a tight grip on her weapon as they passed her. The suspect eyed Kate then spit in her direction.

"Next time I won't miss." He threatened.

Kate gripped her pistol and in one swift movement she bashed the side of his head with the butt of her gun. "There won't be a next time jack ass"

Esposito snickered at the now bleeding wound along side the jerk's temple. Kate got him good. Ryan hauled him in the back of their police car

The boys took the suspect to the precint with Kate and Castle not to far behind. Kate filled in Castle with what happened in the master bedroom since he didn't get to go in. Kate's hand was a little banged up from the recoil of hitting the man with her gun, but it was worth it.

When they arrived at the precint they boys were working on the paperwork for the case. A medic, accompied by a few officers was patching up the suspects head in holding. Kate sat down at her desk and began her part of the paperwork for the case so they could all go home.

After all the paperwork was done and the suspect was headed to prison it was time for the team to head home. Kate was shutting down her computer when Ryan and Esposito were walking by.

"Yo Beckett, wanna go to the Old Haunt?"

Kate looked back at Rick who was smiling like a kid at Christmas. "Sure, meet you guys there."

Rick loved going to the Old Haunt, but more so with his wife and team. Rick greeted his bartender then grabbed the big booth in the back. Everyone slid in and orded their drinks. Ryan was the first to speak.

"That was close today Beckett."

Espostio agreed and watched as Kate rolled her eyes.

"But I'm still here guys, and I was wearing my vest."

Ryan looked down at his beer. "But still, brought up some fears and memories from Captains funeral."

"He's right Beckett" Esposito said. "When I heard that shot a million things went through my head, I can't imagine what Castle thought."

When the focus was on Castle his eyes were locked on Kate's hand. His stare was cold and his fingers were trembling agaisnt his beer. "I couldn't think" He said as he finally met their eyes. "I wanted to rush in there so badly but..." He trailed off.

Kate squeezed Rick's hand. "Guys I'm fine, that was a while ago, "

Ryan shook his head. "But the worry never leaves."

Espostio stood as he finished his beer. "Next time one of us files in behind you."
