One shot on the torture scene from season three, episode one. In this, Erin didn't give her star back and was with the team when Jay disappears.

"Have any of you heard from Jay?" Erin asked trying hard to cover the worry that was in her tone of voice.

"Not since yesterday", Dawson answered.

"He texted me last night, said he was passing on drinks at Molly's" Mouse said, checking his phone for new messages.

"I haven't heard back", he said, holding up his phone as he leaned back in his chair and shook his head.

Erin nodded, "He was supposed to meet me last night but he never showed". She lowered her voice to a mumble, "He didn't answer any of my tests or calls either." She checked again hoping she had missed a message.

"Ah, he'll turn up." Ruzek said, trying to sound optimistic and trying to ignore the fact that Jay was already two hours late to work.

"Hank!" Platt called out as she reached the top step of the bullpen.

"Yeah?"

"Some kid to see you downstairs". Voight nodded and followed her down.

At the front desk, a young boy waited nervously, holding a box.

"You the sergeant?" the boy asked, trying to sound tougher and older than he was.

"That's right" Voight answered.

'I'm supposed to give this to you." The boy pushed to box to Voight.

"Who told you to give this to me?"

"I was on my bike when some dude rolls up, offers me a C-note to bring this to the district and ask for you."

Voight nodded, taking the box and heading back to the bullpen.


Silence overtook the bullpen as the whole team watched in horror. Jay's screams made their way through the speakers. The sound of the taser prodding his skin and Jay's grunts after each delivered blow to his body seemed to last an eternity.

Dawson clenched his jaw and fists at the sight and sound while Ruzek turned away, his stomach turning. Atwater's anger began to boil while Mouse, who was seated directly in front of the screen shut his eyes. The sight of his best friend and brother-in-arms being brutally tortured stirred an agonizing mix of anger, helplessness and sorrow within him. Mouse turned to look at Erin. Her hand was over her mouth, breath held, as tears streamed down her cheeks.

Voight slammed the laptop down, making everyone jump at the sudden sound.

"We're going to find these sons of bitches." His anger was radiated in his tone of voice but there was a calm, steady confidence in his eyes as he looked at Erin and nodded once, as if to assure her above everyone that the scum who was doing this to Jay would be found.
