Pain was the first thing he felt. Blood was the first thing he tasted. Nothing was the first thing he saw. Move. He had to move. He couldn't. His head was spinning, but he tried to look down. He didn't like what he saw. His blue shirt bloody and his right leg bleeding, but the worst was the rope around his wrists and toes. Focus Castle. Where was he? He realized it smelled kind of salty. In the darkness he tried to focus on his surroundings. It was big space. Maybe a warehouse?

He started thinking of anything that would help Kate find him, although with the pain was hard to focus and especially stay awake, but he had to try, so without moving much he tried turn his head and he found that wherever he was it had windows in the upper part of the wall. It was dark...and cold.

"Finally!" a male voice said."You are awake!" Castle couldn't see the man in such darkness."We were starting to believe that you were dead."

"Well..."Castle said as he finally found his voice."I didn't want to disappoint you."Damn. That attitude was gonna get him killed.

"You're funny." said the man."I like that." Castle could hear the man approaching but he always remained in the shadows, where he could not see his face.

"Why am I here?"Castle asked.

"You went too far."the man answered. In that moment Castle moved again but a burning pain came across his leg."Oh! By the way...we need you alive for now so please don't try to move much...your injuries will bleed again and then we will have to tape them again and that is just a waste of my time..."Castle stopped moving and he realized they bandaged his wounds, which was really weird.

"So..."Castle started not sure of what to say, only that the more he kept the guy talking the less chance something bad happen."I'm kinda lost here...I have no clue of what you are talking about."

"I think you Rick...but, I'm a patient man...I can wait all time in the world, but you have much time see? If your injuries don't get treated soon you will bleed out, and trust your cop girlfriend and your daughter and your mother ain't gonna like it."

"You...son of a bitch...if you hurt them I swear..."

"Please save it...all I want is what you know and I'll walk away."

"How do I know is not a trick? How do I know that you won't kill me the second I tell you whatever you want to know so bad?" and then a little more daring."What if I scaped?"

"If you don't tell me what I want to know I won't kill you...you will see how the 4th floor of the 12th precinct is blown and you will see how your friends turn into mist..."His voice was so calm it scared the crap out of Castle."And let's say you scape...which I doubt...because of your injuries you won't even make it to a hospital, so for you that's not really an option."Damn. He was good and to be honest Castle was already feeling warm blood coming out of his abdomen and going through the bandage and staining his shirt. The man was right. He wasn't gonna make it."Now...tell me about Sofia Turner."
