A/N: Hey guys...this chapter is short...as many of them hahahaha as always I LOVE TO READ REVIEWS so KEEP THEM COMING! PLEASE ENJOY!
Kate Beckett hated protocol and procedures. It only delayed things and in this case they were not only delaying the evidence, but also decreasing the possibilities of finding Castle alive. They had leads now, so at least there was something to work on, but the problem was that they were stuck without having the evidence processed. Since Gates told her that Castle was alive, she felt like her life was back inside her body, but she couldn't stop thinking about the fact that Gates told her that he sounded bad and in pain. She would have done anything to hear his voice...to reassure herself that he was alive. She would have done anything to be able to tell him herself that she was gonna find him and that those who took him away would pay.
"Esposito, have we heard back from National Security?"she asked from her desk.
"Not yet..."in that moment, the elevator's door opened revealing a tall man dressed in a suit with black tie. "What the...?" Beckett stood up and walked towards the guy.
"Can I help you?" she asked. When she looked at his eyes. They were blue, but there was something familiar about them, she couldn't tell exactly what. But she definitely knew those blue eyes from somewhere.
"I'm looking for Captain Gates."said the man.
"That would be me."said Captain Gates approaching."Who are you?"
"I am agent Reynolds from the NSA."he said shaking Gates hand. "I would like to speak with you in private."
"Is this about the dead agent we have down at the morgue?" Beckett asked from behind.
"Captain, as I said I would like to speak with you in private please."said Reynolds without altering.
"Agent Reynolds, if this is about the dead agent the whole team investigating has every right to listen to what you have to say." Gates said.
"I would rather discuss the matter in private Captain." They stared at each other for few long seconds until Gates finally gave in and walked towards her office. Immediately Beckett was following but she was stopped by Gates.
"Let me listen to what he has to say."said the captain.
"But sir...it concerns our investigation."Beckett answered.
"Yes but I believe that this man is not gonna talk unless he is alone in there."she said. Beckett didn't like it but under the circumstances that man was their only option.
"Fine."
More stuff to come soon...
