The next morning Rick was awaken by a text. It was Dex he wanted to get everyone together at his lab at 10 which was only an hour away.

Rick looked over at his bride to be. A smile came to his face when the words of Alexis came unbidden to his mind on how Kate would never take off the ring once he slid it on her finger. The proof of those words were staring him in the face. Kate's left hand was above the cover. Her ring was clearly visible. Rick shaken out of his musing moved to grasp Kate's exposed naked shoulder then gave it a gentle tug.

"Wake up Kate the results are in. We have to go come on lazy bones we can sleep later." Rick chided.

Kate rolled over and said only one word. "Coffee?"

"Yes I will get it for you but you need to get in the shower and dressed we do not have much time." Rick acted all giddy since this was going to prove if there is any chance Brian Wilson was Rick's father.

Kate dutifully got up after Rick's urgings and headed to the shower. Rick went to the Kitchen and was surprised to see all the rest of the family all seated around the table.

"Oh Great I got a text from Dex the results are in he wants to see all of us in the next 45 mins." Rick announced to the group.

"Oh that is wonderful Richard! I was hoping Brian is your father." Martha said.

"Hey Dad I can see you are quite excited." Alexis said.

Kate now entered the room. Rick seeing her handed her the mug of coffee. Kate greedily sips that wonderful elixir. Jim had to smirk at his daughter. This was the first opportunity to look at Kate's ring.

"Katie that is one beautiful Ring! I am proud of you." Jim said hugging his daughter.

"Thanks Daddy" Kate said hugging him back.

Martha was enthralled over the ring then the eventual topic of grand babies was broached.

"Mother I am sure Kate and I will discuss those eventualities but first we must really get going." Rick said impatiently.

Graham smirked at the antics of his future Father in Law toward his Mother. He turned to gaze at Alexis lovingly. Alexis smiled that sweet smile which drove him insane.

Rick had eventually got them all together and into the SUV. It was one of the different vehicles which were rented. Driving up to the Station He noticed Brian and Mike were already in the parking lot. Mother rushed to Brian's side and gave him a kiss.

"What was that for?" Brian asked while he was not expecting it but it was nice just the same.

"Just a kiss for good luck." Martha winked and headed toward the building.

Rick looked away both Kate and Alexis rolled their eyes on the cheesy Star Wars reference.

"Dad Wasn't Leia turned out to be Luke's sister? So what did that mean for the future?" Alexis pondered.

"Brian and Martha Brother and Sister Ew I can not even entertain that thought." Mike said.

"Let's not entertain that thought at all" Rick said feeling a bit disgusted.

Everyone crowded into the small lab area.

"Is everyone here? Good. Well we ran the test three times and each time it was the same. Rick… Brian here is not your father." Dex said.

Brian had a wave of relief sweep across his face.

"However, there are similar familial strains to say with out a doubt you have a relative in common." Dex said proudly.

"Dex what does that mean?" Rick asked curiously.

"It means the Wilson family has found another branch in the Family Tree." Brian said slowly.

"Dad! You are a cousin!" Alexis spelt it out for her father who was slow on the uptake.

"What? I am?" Rick said.

"Oh Great another Cousin!" Mike lamented the Wilson family was noted to have many cousins now they had found a few more.

"I have to remind you Mike! I am a famous cousin!" Rick said.

Both Kate and Alexis rolled their collective eyes over that ridiculous statement.

Ok Dex can you determine from the results how close of a cousin I am? Rick asked in earnst.

Well if I had to guess maybe 2nd cousin or what is that other term? Dex asked.

"1st cousin once removed?" Alexis supplied.

"Yeah that too" Dex agreed.

"Well that would make Brian and Martha Kissing cousins!" Jim quipped.

"Oh Dad!" Kate said to her father for saying something that terrible.

The group gave a collective groan! Once the results were given they one by one adjourned to the parking lot.

"So Mike and Brian it was good to see you both so where are you heading?" Kate asked.

"We have to catch a flight we have one last stop in this tour. LA where it all began." Mike said.

"Well I'm happy to get to know you." Kate said. "Your concert was amazing."

Kate's fangirl was beginning to show. Kate hugged them both.

"Nice to meet more of the family" Mike said "but we need to go Bye."

The group waved to them as they left.

Dex standing next to Rick said. "I have to go back to work I have 3 hungry mouths to feed."

"Yes I am sure also I'm so sorry for your loss. If either Kate or I could assist you just say the word" Rick said.

"I thank you. I will keep in touch." Dex said as he left to go back inside the building

The group now knowing Rick's father was not Brian Wilson returned to the compound. Rick decided he had been slack since that satchel containing the contents of the safety deposit box was still untouched.

Rick moved into the study of the house and took the satchel with him. The rest of the family was off doing something else. Rick started to remove the contents and was studying each item. Then he noticed a receipt which had the name Martin Brandon.

Rick did a quick internet study and found before he could read the information Kate come bounding into the quiet study.

"Hey?" Kate said wrapping her arms around her soon to be husband's neck and feeling his broad chest.

"Hey I thought you were lying down." Rick said giving a quick kiss to the side of her neck.

"Yeah I was. I can see you have been busy." Kate said looking over Rick's shoulder.

Rick looked around to the scattered papers strewn about.

"Yeah I guess I started the party without you. Care to help?" Rick asked sheepishly.

"Ok so what are you doing?" Kate asked her Detective Beckett mode full in force.

"Well before your most welcomed interruption I was looking up this man." Rick said as he pointed to Martin Brandon.

"Ok let's see what you have discovered." Kate said curiously.

"Look at this Kate. It is his obit." Rick exclaimed startled.

"It says he died two days ago from a gunshot wound." Kate added.

"Yeah but that is not the big thing. Read This." Rick pointed out.

Kate read "He was a disgraced Investment Banker for Goldman Sachs and was arrested but never convicted of Security irregularities. That he retired to Florida."

"So what does that mean?" Kate asked,

"It means I need to talk to my friend on the SEC. To find out what sort of trouble did our friend here had and how did it connect to the Dragon." Rick stated.

"Why Rick?" Kate asked not seeing any connection.

"Because of this." Rick pointed out the receipt with this man's name clearly on it.

Kate's eyes narrowed this was the first good solid lead into the identity of the Dragon and It led them to Florida.

"Rick look further in the article. Is that not Dex?" Kate pointed to the family picture.

"Yes it is. That is his Wife who was murdered by the Trinty Killer." Rick said.

"Poor man! She was very pretty." Kate said.

"Yes she was but she could not hold a candle to my wonderful almost Mrs. Castle!" Rick said.

"Later Romeo! You said you needed to call someone?" Kate reminded.

"Oh Yeah… I guess I need to get right on that." Rick said getting out his magical phone which had listing of all the guys he had somewhere.

Rick got on the phone and soon was connected to the person he needed to speak. After the conversation Kate looked at Rick expectantly.

"He said he would get back to me since the exchange was being closed due to the massive storm now only 40 miles off the coast." Rick explained.

"Well then we need to wait. Let's clean up and put the papers back into the satchel. I am sure we can find something else to occupy the time?" Kate said seductively.

"Mrs. Castle I love how you think!" Rick said excitedly.

They left the study to conduct more pleasurable pursuits in their bedroom.
