A Kastle (Frank Castle x Karen Page) AU fanfic!  

Beginning shortly before where Punisher S2 ended, we find Frank arrested and hospitalized after being ambushed by Billy Russo's men at Valhalla.  In this universe, we wonder... What if?

What if the Snap happened while Frank was in the hospital that day?  What if Karen was one of the half that disappeared?

In this Kastle fanfic, we learn about a man stuck in a cycle of grief and loss, and a woman who struggles to find herself in a world suddenly full once more.

Homecoming | The Punisher by EndlessImagination

(Marvel's The Punisher Fanfiction) The question: to what extent will one go for their family? When news spreads to New York of a source with incriminating evidence to take down a powerful sector of the Triad, Pete Castiglione laughs at the Justice System's attempt to attack a vigorous crime organization through the law. However, when the identity of the source is revealed, Pete doesn't hesitate to rush out from the shadows to not only resume his title as the Punisher but as a father too: a role he thought was out of his reach entirely. The answer: through many bullets and an array of dead bodies. [Status: Completed]

𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐂𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 || Frank Castle by w1steriaa_

Losing her father was one of the worst experiences of Evangeline Winters' life. They said he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. She said they were full of shit. Juggling her job as personal assistant at Nelson and Murdock and her hobby of reporting about the reality of New York and the "heroes" it comes with on her podcast, she devotes the rest of her life to finding out who's at fault for the event that broke her. When she's finds herself present at the place of a massacre due to a debt she owed, she's greeted with the barrel of a gun and a man that evokes an uncomfortable feeling in her gut. A man that might just have all the answers she's searched for so desperately. 𖤓 [daredevil s2] [the punisher 1-2] [frank castle x fem!oc] started: 10.5.24 finished: - i do not own daredevil/the punisher, it's characters or it's plot lines. i only own my ocs and their plots. :)

The Punisher: Blood Feud (Book 1) by KaylaMarieWrites

(Requested by @LuluLyn77) Lacey Gordon is an aspiring reporter who moved to New York to write for one of her favorite newspapers "The Bulletin". She landed this spot after Karen Page herself selected Lacey to take her place, as she's decided to leave the city to make a fresh start after the disappearance of her husband, Dean. When she accompanies her friend Erykah on a lead into the organized crime that plagues the city, she runs into Frank Castle. Rather than being repulsed or afraid, she's drawn to his way of delivering justice. She also learns that Operation Cerberus is connected to what's happened to her husband, and Frank's family. Old acquaintances, surprising enemies, and a vengeful vigilante must work together to uncover the truth before it's too late...

My Life In Red by catsinpartyhats

Daredevil characters x reader Please Keep in mind this is mostly a frankXreader romance and mattXreader platonic story This story is loosely based on chapters titled with the same name in my imagines/oneshot book. It takes place between Daredevil season 2 and the punisher season 1 (no mention of the defenders) The full story description is the first chapter so please read that (the whole thing since there is a massive warning)! *COMPLETED STORY*

Justice is Not Blind ☠ The Punisher by chelraychicago

No one did a thing to prevent it and no one did a thing to make it right once it was done. Losing her sister-in-law, her niece and nephew was hard enough as it was, but her big brother growing distant made the pain worse. Dani is pulled into the grey world of rights and wrongs as her brother earns a name among the men who took their family from them, the Punisher. So when he is caught, Dani takes it upon herself to do everything she can to keep her brother alive. But as she gets more entrenched in it all, Dani will discover that not everything was quite what it appeared to be and she is only just starting down the bloody rabbit's hole. Set in Daredevil season 2 I own none of the characters or story except for Dani and her story.
