"I'm pretty sure that's a shark."
"Out of the way, Castle!" Kate pushed against the transfixed writer, trying to get them both away from the water.
Castle stumbled back. "Do you think this has ever happened to anyone before?"
"I have no idea," Kate answered, breathing heavily. "The only thing I know right now it that I sure as hell don't want to be eaten by a shark."
The two ran blindly in the glow until they came to a wall. They were a good ten feet away from the water's edge, and they could see the shark's outline in the eerie light.
"Where are we?" Castle's voice was louder than he intended it to be, and it echoed off the walls.
"Well. The ceiling's high. We know that now thanks to you."
"Echo!"
Kate rolled her eyes, the gesture unseen in the dark. "Shut up, Castle!" She tried to focus and noticed the room had become significantly brighter. Her eyes had just adjusted to it. The walls around them stopped about ten feet up, and the ceiling was higher than the detective could calculate. She saw a ladder to her right and climbed onto it.
"What are you doing?"
"Trying to get a better view. Hold the ladder." When she reached the top of the wall, the width of it was only about five inches. She looked around.
"Holy shit."
"What do you see?"
"It's a maze."
Castle's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "What?"
"We're in a fucking maze," Kate said, as she climbed back down the ladder. She pointed in the direction on the way they had just come from. "The water's that direction. And there's more than one shark. It looked like the exit was just beyond that." She started walking towards the water.
"Where are you going?" Castle's voice cracked with panic.
"I'm going to get out of here."
"By risking your life?"
Kate turned around. "We don't know what else is in here, Castle."
"Exactly. There could be a safer way to get there." Castle started in the other direction, away from the sharks. He was silently willing Kate to follow him.
"Castle, whoever put us in here. They drugged us. They tied us together. We're not supposed to make it out of here alive. For all we know, the sharks could be the safest thing in here."
Castle kept walking and Kate had no choice but to follow. She wasn't about to leave him. She smirked when Castle tripped.
She laughed. "Why'd you trip?" Her own question was answered when her fingers found the trip wire. "What does this do?"
"I don't know." Castle winced. "Ow. My head."
The two heard the distant barking of a lot of dogs. The barking was getting louder.
Castle got up quickly. "I believe we've released the dogs."
"Castle, run!"
They ran in the direction opposite of where the dogs sounded like they were coming from, but it was hard to tell with the echo in the room.
The shrill ring of the phone awoke the sleeping women. The brunette turned over, unaware of the doctor's presence, that is, until she rolled on top of her naked body. Maura immediately stirred when she felt the weight of Jane on top of her.
"Jane…? Wha…?" Jane had grabbed her phone and was straddling Maura's hips as she answered.
"Rizzoli."
Maura smiled as she grinded her hips towards Jane and giggled when the detective released a low moan. Maura reached and grabbed Jane's hip. Her other hand grabbed Jane's free one and she sucked on Jane's fingers. She smiled when she felt Jane's ever growing wetness.
"Yeah, Frost we'll be there soon."
"Yeah, Maura's here… I know. Alright. Bye." Maura wasn't ready for the attack Jane spurred on the doctor until she felt Jane's lips on her body. She felt Jane get out of the bed and whimpered.
"Where are you going?"
Jane smirked. "To the shower," she said, as she leaned down and effortlessly picked Maura up. "Are coming with me."
"Pun intended?"
"Yes, indeed."
