To be honest, this is really cheesy nut i had to write it soo yeah. If you do read it please review, and give me some prompts on another Jaywhump fic. School's over and I'll probably be able to write at least some of the suggestions. Thanks!
At The District
Jay paced around the room trying to formulate why their suspect, Loyd Simons, would kill dozens people without a particular reason. Over the past month, lifeless bodies had shown up all over chicago, each one killed with the same method. Well, not a method but a pattern. Every time the victim was suffocated, but in a different way. One time a young woman was killed when a plastic bag was tied around her head and slowly deprived her from oxygen. Another had been trapped in a room that didn't let air flow inside resulting in a slow death.
None of the victims were related to him in anyway. All of them were young women in their early to mid twenties. Each body was found in a dark alley, their hands positioned on their stomach that made it looked like they were just taking a peaceful nap. This guy was a psychopath, killing woman for no reason. This angered Jay, a psychopath like this guy shouldn't be so hard to find. They'd raided everywhere and yet they were always a foot behind.
He slammed his fist onto his desk and shook his head furiously, they had been on this case for more than three weeks and yet they had gotten nowhere. Well, they did rule out a suspect but what help did that do when they couldn't find him and stop the deaths.
Just then, Erin stood up phone in her hand and said, "They found another body, and it's recent. We have to go now."
The team stood up grabbing their coats and headed out. It'd been a week since the last body and if Loyd Simons decided he wasn't going to kill anymore people this was their last chance to get him.
At the Crime Scene
"The body's been dumped here, about fifteen minutes ago. We got a call, when someone witnessed the body being dumped and a cloaked figure running to the end of this alley." The on scene police investigator said.
"Ok thanks," Jay said nodding and turned around to face Erin.
"He couldn't have gotten far. He doesn't have a car and the nearest bus or train station is in like five miles. If we hurry we might be able to catch him."
"Sarge, let's call a search unit." Jay yelled already getting ready to run.
"Alright, Simons couldn't have gotten far. Lindsay, Halstead you search the rest of this alley. Ruzek and Atwater search the north side and the the search team will cover the rest. Now go, before we lose this bastard again. " Voight barked, who had taken enough of this case.
Jay and Erin ran down the brick alleyway watching left and right for any signs where Simons might have gone. The ground was muddy as it had rained this morning. And his boots squished through it. He looked down and that was when he noticed a fresh footprint. It was deep and another one was just ahead of it.
"Hey Erin, think I found something here, footprints." Jay said as Erin walked over.
"He's here, he's close let's go." They ran following the muddy tracks that curved left and right until they were met with a dead end and two doors. The prints stopped and lead to both of the doors.
"I'll take this one." Erin said as she motioned over to the closest one. Jay nodded as he walked over to the other door.
The door was rusty and old, but the hinges were new and looked like they were replaced recently. He gave the door a hard push and it creaked with the shove. He didn't expect it to be unlocked so he stepped inside with his gun in his hand.
Inside it was a warehouse, it was dark and he really couldn't see anything until the lights flicked on. He twirled around to see their suspect next to the lightswitch, and before he could do anything, a pipe came swinging at his head. His temple connected with the end of it making him see stars. He felt himself being shoved into what felt like a closet, and he knew he should have fought back but he was too dizzy.
He slumped against what he thought was a wall, but realized he had been locked in a tight glass chamber. He tried to steady himself while shaking out the gray dots swirling in front of him when suddenly the chamber began to fill with water.
The water gushed from somewhere, he couldn't figure out where. Outside he saw Simons laughing triumphantly as he watched Jay struggle inside his trap.
The water was at Jay's waist now and he knew he didn't have so many minutes of air left and desperately pounded at the glass panels. For once, he was scared he was going to die. His fists tried to penetrate the glass but it was like it was bulletproof. The water was at his chin now and he gave up trying to break through and instead was trying hard to stay above the water.
His face grazed the top of the capsule as he took his final breath and the chamber was completely filled with water. He tried not to panic knowing the fact that he was surrounded by water and he was going to die.
Just then Erin burst into the room, unfazed at the sight of his boyfriend drowning in front of her. She focused on Simons as he continued to laugh
"You know if you shoot me, your little friend here dies." Simons said cackling amused with the situation he created.
She glanced at Jay whose hand covered his mouth and was struggling to hold his breath any longer. His legs twitched as his chest rapidly went in and out without oxygen. His lungs wanted oxygen, and he struggled to keep his mouth closed.
Soon, Jay stopped moving and his body went limp, the water became still and panic filled Erin.
Without thinking she shot at the glass, the glass cracked but still held together. Loyd Simons laughed again as he watched Erin.
Erin continued to shoot at the glass until finally the panel had gave out, and a small hole quickly leaked out water. At this, Simons charged at Erin with a pipe angered that she had broken the glass and wouldn't be able to see another person taking their last breath. Erin shot his leg stopping him and watched him fall onto his face. He groaned and cursed at Erin as she went to pick up the pipe in his hands.
She walked over to the capsule where the water was still gushing out and slammed the pipe along the rest of the glass, letting the rest of the water rush out.
Jay slumped on the ground glass shattered all over him. Without hesitating Erin pulled the hunk of man he was and laid him on the ground that was clear of shattered glass.
Taking a deep breath Erin shook Jay, wiping away the glass all over him. He wasn't breathing and that scared the hell out of her, "Voight, Halstead's not breathing, call a bus!" she radioed.
"What, why!" Voight yelled over the radio, but Erin was focused on Jay. She placed her two hands on his chest and gave it hard push. When Jay didn't respond she did it again, this time harder and it seemed to do the trick.
Water spurted out of Jay's mouth and his chest was moving again. Erin slumped down next to him holding his head in her arms as his chest breathed in and out rapidly.
"Shhh, slow down. I got you, I got you." Erin whispered as Jay continued to cough up water. Jay's eyes fluttered around seeing Simons writhing in pain a few feet away from him.
At that moment, Voight and Alvin burst into the room. Both stood at the door shocked, both buy their suspect bleeding on the floor from a hole in the leg, and their own detective soaked in water and trying to catch his breath.
There was glass everywhere and the floor was slippery after all that water flooded the place. Voight handcuffed Loyd Simons as he snarled and snickered at them.
"Shut Up! You're arrested for several murders and an attempt of another one." After that Voight read him his rights and half shoved half pulled him outside.
"The ambulance will be here soon. Just uh…hang tight." Alvin said while patting Erin on the shoulder and worriedly glanced at Jay.
Jay really didn't want to go to Med, and worry everyone there especially his brother.
"No, hospi'al," Jay let out with a groan, while trying to sit up.
"Not this time, it's February, freezing, you almost drowned to death and you're shaking crazy. You're going to the hospital Jay," Erin said while pushing him back down.
In the background, the ambulance sirens wailed and Jay groaned, he wasn't going to enjoy this.
At Chicago Med
Will paced up and down the front desk. Just a minute ago he'd gotten a call from his brother's partner Erin, that they were in an ambulance, because somehow Jay managed to get drowned in a water filled capsule. He knew he probably wasn't hurt that bad, but he was still worried.
"Will, They're here. They're coming in right now." Maggie shouted as everyone shared the same worry for Jay.
Will could feel his heart pound against his chest and the echo in his ears as Jay was rolled in, stretcher at a forty five degree angle and an oxygen mask over his face. It fogged with every breath reassuring Will that Jay was breathing. A white towel wrapped around him, drying his soaked clothes.
As Will took over wheeling his brother, Erin followed right behind him. Will pushed the gurney into an empty room and tried to help Jay off it onto the bed.
"I'm fine" Jay huffed as he waved the helping hand off and sat on the bed.
"Dude, you literally have an oxygen mask on your face because your lungs were filled with water a few minutes ago. Don't tell me you're fine, until another doctor and I check you over. Capisce?"
With that, Jay let out a sigh and replied "Then when can I take this off?" while lifting up the clear mask.
"The more you keep taking it off the longer." Will said annoyed while raising his ginger eyebrows.
"Fine." Jay said coughing at the end.
"See, I told you, you're not fine. Now what happened to your head?" Will asked just noticing the pink and red skin, starting to swell at the his right temple. Erin hadn't noticed it before either and turned to look at Jay, as Jay told them about how Simons had hit him with a pipe.
Jay told them while trying to stifle a cough.
"It looks pretty bad, I'll go get an ice pack, and some spare clothes of mine. Stay here." Will said sternly.
Later
Will stood outside Jay's room watching him sleep, with Erin next to him. There was still an oxygen mask over his face after a long argument on why he should keep it on, his clothes were dry this time after he gave him his change of clothes. Even that took a lot of persuasion after Jay had deemed that Will's shirt was ugly.
Jay finally fell asleep after he gave him morphine, half because Will really wanted his brother to stop whining about every single, little thing, and the other half was because if he was a human, his body was going to ache a whole lot, sooner or later.
Of course, he protested when they put an IV on him saying that it was "unnecessary" and that all he wanted was to go home. Well, Will would've taken him home but his shift wasn't even close to being over and he'd rather have him at the hospital.
The doors slid open as Erin walked out standing next to Will. They peered through the glass watching Jay's chest rise and fall both without a word.
"So...What happened?" Will asked breaking the silence. He had heard briefly about what'd happened when he'd gotten a call, and he hadn't had a chance to ask anyone since.
Drawing in a deep breath she started, "We were on a chase to find the serial killer Loyd Simons and then Jay and I…we split up when there two doors, both with footprints leading up to them. I took the first one and Jay took the other. I was searching the place and there was nothing there and that's when I heard pounding and laughing, so I went in to see Jay drowning right in front of me." Erin said with breaths in between.
"He...that son of a bitch is a psychopath. He already killed so many women…he...he was laughing,while he was drowning Jay." Erin said yelling when the sudden anger of someone hurting the man she loved came upon her. The image replayed like a button on a video player that was stuck on repeat.
One Week Later…
Jay was back at work, saying that he hadn't needed a week of work off. Erin glared at him in a jokingly way and walked over to Jay.
"Glad your back, Jay. You scared me. Next time, try not to get caught in a glass chamber and also die ok? Thanks." Erin said grinning.
