Disclaimer: I (unfortunately) don't own the Castle characters…

This Chapter is written from Castle's point of view.

I was standing on the stone bridge in Central Park.

It was a very warm winter.

I watched two kids play in the snow, a boy and a girl, building a snowman… Probably siblings.

"Hey, kids!" I called out to them as they boy tested the ice on the river with one small foot.

I had a bad feeling about this.

I shrugged it off as my phone started vibrating violently in my pocket; I pulled it out and read the message from Beckett.

Hey Castle, I'm just finished parking in the parking lot. I'll see you soon.

B.

I looked up just in time to see the ice crumble underneath the little boy and watch him fall through the ice.

Should I wait for Beckett? I asked myself as she came into view, but, unfortunately, she was too far to get here in time.

Shocked of what I had just seen, I ran down to the water's edge and dove into the freezing water after the little boy. I came up to the surface soon enough with the unconscious boy in my arms. I quickly put him on land and tried to pull myself out when the strong current of the current pulled me under. I felt the cold water of the river surround me as I sunk to the bottom. My clothes were soaked and I couldn't breathe without breathing in water.

As I blacked out, I breathed out the last of the air in my lungs before my whole world went black.

Please review... you know you want to!
