A/N #1: Since this chapter is so short I'll be posting the next in a few hours so look out for it then!
A/N #2: The site is still… not back to normal, so I'm really pleased I got any feedback at all so I'll start on my thank you for that! Mb (It was very nice to see you thought the last chapter was a good update! And I wasn't surprised you could see beforehand that it would be hectic backstage at a competition like that, me too, so of course it was great you thought it was great look at that! Not surprised you laughed at the other competitors wanting autographs from Julia and the jealousy too. Also I laughed at you saying if they knew who was in the audience rooting for them, lol. And I did kind of had to have them win this one, lol, since I do want Julia to have confidence in her skills and win, along with Peter and Mari. So nice to see you thought the first half of the chapter was nicely done! And you're welcome for sharing too! I was very, very pleased that you thought the second half was nicely written too. And great you thought what they did for the rest of the day was a nice way to end that day at the Tower and then with old friends. I did feel like I needed to end with Castle enjoying each other the way they do, lol, and since Tahiti is coming up it was definitely going to be discussed. So I'm really glad you enjoyed that! You're welcome for the second half of the chapter!).
Thanks for the review, I love reading it and appreciate the time taken to write it out and send it my way!
A/N #3: The title of this chapter is a lyric from the song Dead Man's Party written by Danny Elfman, from the Oingo Boingo album the same name as the song.
Leave Your Body And Soul
Waving to some of his acquaintances, the man called out, "Great costume Breck."
"You too Amsel," the other replied with a smile.
"Hey, I was in a hurry," the man said, shrugging.
"You know you could have just said you were a ninja," Breck commented.
Amsel was about to respond before he paused and then looked at the building they were near asking his friend, "What's in there?"
"The séance room," Breck answered, distorting his voice. "Alpha Phi made some hydraulics."
"It sounds like it," Amsel replied, shaking his head. "That music is loud."
"Seriously. I'd go inside since I want to see but my hearing aid is being fickle," Breck said.
"Fickle? How many monster bombs did you have?" Amsel asked him.
"Didn't have any," Breck answered. "Yet," he then told his friend with a smirk.
Watching some girls running out of the building Amsel said, "Huh… I think Tyra was with those girls."
"Eh, she's dating someone from Alpha Phi," Breck replied.
"Really?" Amsel said interestedly, turning to watch the group talking together. Looking at his friend again he told him, "Maybe we should go comfort her, after how badly they were just scared I think she's single again."
"Great, but who the hell is getting her?" Breck asked with a frown.
"You, but she'll need a couple of guys with her," Amsel replied.
"You know what… pass I'm not going to tangle with her boyfriend even if he is her ex," Breck said, shaking his head. "And I'll go get me one of those bombs."
"I'll go with you," Amsel said with a laugh before they were heading to a stall. With drinks in hand they were walking to another building on the property, and he said, "Freaking creepy here."
"Seriously, they couldn't have picked a better place," Breck said.
"Hey, it was your suggestion," Amsel said before they tapped their mugs together while they were turning a corner around the building. They froze at the same time when they saw someone they knew at a basement window before he called out, "Kean!"
"Son of a…" the man yelled as he jerked away from the window. "Oh, you two, come on, I think they found the secret scene."
"No way," Breck said in awe, hurrying over.
"In there?" Amsel said. He wasn't surprised when his friends were ignoring him before he followed with a sigh and when they were soon getting the door open, heading down the steep stairs to the deeper than usual basement said, "I guess it is."
"Oh… this is… sick," Breck said as they found a round table with four figures in robes there.
"They're not hydraulics," Kean said in amazement. "Look, it's Jace. We found you Jace we…" he started to say as he slapped the man on his back.
Whirling when the man was yelling in horror, Amsel and Breck found the head off the body, leaving a bloody stump. The latter bumped into another acquaintance and when her head fell to the ground all three were leaving, yelling at the others on the compound to call the police.
