Hank was in the interrogation room with Phil, he locked the door so he wouldn't get interrupted. Phil was terrified, he was shaking like a leaf. Terror and fear filled his eyes and body as he looked at the older man.
"Hank whatever this is, I'm sure we can talk about it". Phil spoke in a shaky voice.
"Oh I know we will. Right now". Hank replied dangerously, as he rolled up the sleeves on his shirt.
"W-what is it you wanna talk about?"
The older man then sucker punched Phil in the midsection sending the agent down to his knees then roughly grabbed him and sat him in the chair.
"You're about to get real honest real quick".
"About what?"
"Carlos Perez".
Josh was in the lounge sipping on coffee, he didn't feel guilty or regret about telling Hank about Phil he was lost in thought. He did feel guilty for ratting out his own sister to Carlos and nothing nobody says or does will change anything. Adam had entered the lounge to get some coffee.
"Hey you good?" Adam asked.
"Yes and no". Josh replied.
The detective took a seat next to the younger man and soon Josh just burst into tears, Adam put a hand on his shoulder.
"I didn't mean to rat Anna out. I didn't mean for it to happen". Josh cried.
"Josh, we will catch this bastard. He will be taken down once and for all. You, Jo, nothing won't happen to either of you". Adam tried to comfort the younger man.
"It was because of me that Jordan had to go through life without a mother, it was because of me Anna was murdered while she was pregnant!"
"Hey Josh, I need you to list to me. Whatever happened 15 years ago you can't change the past as much as you want to you can't all you can do is move forward. Jordan needs you, she needs Voight, she needs all of us right now. She's scared right now whatever hate or anger we have towards each other that has to get put to the side for Jordan, she needs all of us to protect. What happened was bad but you gotta stop dwelling on the past it's not gonna help in anyway".
Josh wiped his cheeks and nodded. "You're right to hold that in for so many years it was slowly eating away at me for so long. That's why I was never in Jo's life because I knew I'd be a danger to her, I was afraid that if I was around her she would be a target so I stayed away".
"Voight's the same way he's afraid all the time because of the enemies we make. Jordan would be at school you don't think he isn't afraid or worried? As long as all of us are around, Jo will be safe".
"When you first met Jo, what'd you think of her?"
"The very first time I met her I honestly couldn't believe she was Voight's kids because she didn't act like him now when she's angry she's totally his kid".
Josh chuckled. "That I know for sure".
"You good now?"
"Yeah. Thanks Ruzek".
"It's Adam".
"Alright Adam".
Jay was at his desk when his phone rang and it was his brother calling.
-Hey man. Jay answered.
-Hey Jay. Um you wouldn't know if Hank's busy would you? Will replied.
-He's in interrogation why.
-It's Jordan. Something happened.
-What happened? Is she ok?
That had caught everyone's attention especially the attention of Alvin and Erin. Was Jordan alright? Was she still safe? What happened?
-Jordan's stitches ripped they're working on her now.
-I'll tell him.
-Alright.
The young detective hung his phone up just as everyone stared at him.
"Jay what was that? Is Jo ok?" Alvin asked, concerned for his goddaughter.
"Will said her stitches ripped that they're working on her now". Jay replied.
"I'll get Hank". Erin said, running to the back.
Hank was still with Phil, he punched him a few more times. By this point Phil had some blood coming from his mouth. His midsection hurt like hell and it was hard for him to breath.
"Hank...you gotta...believe me...I'm not working with or for Carlos Perez". Phil says between breaths.
"Why don't I believe you?" Hank replied dangerously.
"This case has you wound up and it's making you remember the past".
"Speaking of the past something clicked in my head from our talk earlier. Anna went AWOL after she got taken off the case due to her pregnancy, a CI of yours found her at one of the safe houses, right after that Perez finds out there's a rat in the crew. So if nobody else at the FBI knew about Anna and you were the only person who knew that means you could have ratted her out to Perez wanna know what else that means in my book? You are also responsible for her murder as well as the murder of my two children. Do you know what it's like explaining to a seven year old about why she doesn't have a mother? Do you know the pain you caused Jordan and myself? My daughter has to go through life without a mother because of you, she'll never know about her brother and sister because of you. I will never have my family because of you!"
Phil then chuckled darkly. "I told Anna not to get involved, I was the one who kicked her off the case but then she went AWOL. The part about my CI finding her that was true he saw someone matching Anna's description going into one of our houses, I confronted her she told me she'd bring down Carlos and his crew that it would be her last case and she'd retire. I convinced her to leave but she wouldn't she was determined to bring them down. I told her that she needed to be with her family, her daughter. When she wouldn't leave I did tell Carlos about a rat in the crew Anna proved herself very well, Josh on the other hand was an ametur hell who do you think told him to rat Anna out".
"You made Josh rat Anna out?"
"I didn't think he'd actually do it but after being tortured for 5 days can make you break".
"How'd you make Josh break?"
"Mostly torture but I told him if he didn't then his family would die starting with Anna and ending with Jordan".
That caused Hank to punch Phil again across the face. "Threatening me that's one thing, threatening my family that's another".
"Oh please you and Josh had never got along so why start now?"
"At least Josh has never lied to me about anything. Now you're gonna tell me where Perez is. Right now".
"And if I don't?"
Hank then put him in a headlock and a tight one at that. Erin got to the room and tried to get in but the door was locked she then began banging on the door.
"Hank! Hank! Open the door! It's an emergency! Hank open up!" Erin called through the door.
Hearing the yelling outside the door caused the older man to let go of Phil who was coughing. Going to the door Hank looked at the agent giving him a death glare.
"Just know you got lucky, it won't happen again". Hank spoke.
He then walked out the room and he seen his surrogate daughter standing there with a worried look on her face which got him worried.
"What's wrong Erin?" Hank asked.
"Will called, it's Jordan. Her stitches ripped he said that they're working on her".Erin replied.
"I need to be with her".
"You take Josh and go we got this here"
"You sure?"
"I'm positive".
Hank then ran off to his office to grab his jacket, when he reentered the squad and everyone saw him rushing they knew why he was rushing. When Josh had seen him rushing he got worried and followed him.
"Hank what's going on?" Josh asked.
"Jo's stitches ripped and I gotta get to the hospital". Hank quickly replied.
"Can I come with?"
"Let's go".
Josh ran and got his jacket then followed behind Hank, the team watched on.
"Let's get back to work". Antonio spoke to everyone.
And that's what they did, they began checking everything on Carlos Perez.
During the drive to the hospital Hank would glance over at Josh, he wanted to ask him but didn't know if he should he then decided.
"Josh why didn't you tell me Phil forced you to rat Anna out?" Hank asked.
"Truth be told I didn't know if you would believe me or not, for 5 days straight they find something new to do to me. They knew I was gonna crack sooner or later on the fourth night Phil came in and told me if I didn't say Anna was the rat then he'd kill her then you and Jo. I didn't want anything to happen to my family". Josh replied.
"You'll never have to worry about that because I'll make sure nothing happens to this family. Period".
"I never thought that we be family".
"Josh I kept tabs on you".
"What?"
"I kept an eye on you for years, that stuff I found out during the custody battle I already knew my team didn't. I made Anna a couple of promises the first was that I'd look after Jo to protect her and keep her safe. The second was to make sure you stayed out of trouble and to make sure you were alright. As much as I despised you I wasn't gonna break my promise to her so I kept an eye on you all these years. I protect my family".
"I appreciate that Hank I really do".
Chicago Med
Will and Natalie were waiting to hear from the doctor who was working on Jordan they both were antsy as were Kim and Sean. The entire time they were waiting to hear something Will saw something was bugging Natalie.
"Something on your mind Nat?" Will asked.
"There has to be something we can do to help Jordan. She shouldn't have to be like this". Natalie replied.
"I agree but I don't think we should do anything".
"What? You wanna see her like this?"
"I don't like seeing her like this but you can't help someone who doesn't wanna be helped. We can help her physically but mentally she may not want the help".
"She's a scared girl Will, we know her but to her were strangers. She's not the same Jordan we know right now. Deep down she wants help but doesn't know how to ask for it".
"Even if we wanted to do something to help it wouldn't matter because we need Hank's permission. You heard what Dr. Charles said if she's forced to remember she could have a mental breakdown, look what just happened".
"I'm not saying go at her with hard hitting questions we start off small. Will she's like you're sister, she's like my niece. As doctors it's our job to help people".
"I think she should be admitted".
"You wanna admit Jordan?"
"It's for her safety as well as everyone else's".
"Will she's scared you don't think that'll terrify her more?"
"She'll get the help she needs".
"Then you can be the one to tell Hank that. I wanna see what Dr. Charles or Sarah will say about this".
She then went over to Maggie. The head nurse seen her friend come over. "Hey how's Jo?"
"She's getting her stitches fixed they ripped. Could you page Dr. Charles or Sarah".
"Yeah".
The head nurse then went off to page the two Psychiatrist, just then the doctor who was working on Jordan had went over to Will, Kim and Sean stood by so they could hear just in case they had to give an update.
"How is she?" Will asked.
"Jordan's alright. She's stable. No sign of infection or anything but she should really be taking it easy, that kid is one hell of a fighter though". The doctor replied.
"Don't I know it. Where is she?"
"Second floor. Room 205".
"Thanks".
The two shook hands just as Hank and Josh ran inside, Will saw the two worried men and met them halfway.
"How's Jordan?" Hank asked first.
"Is she ok?" Josh asked.
"Guys, Jo's ok her stitches ripped she's recovering now". Will tells the two.
"Did something happen?" Hank asked.
"She was in the lounge drawing, Dr. Charles and Dr. Reese went to talk to her whatever was said she flipped out". Will took a deep breath and continued. "Hank I wanna have Jo committed for a short time just to make sure she's not a danger to herself or others".
"Will what aren't you saying?" Hank then began to get more worried about hearing this.
"Jordan was flipping out and she thought we were gonna hurt her so she picked up a chair and held it out in front of her. I wanna make sure she's not a danger to herself or others".
"Can we see her?"
"Of course, follow me".
Will escorted the two men to the second floor to Jordan's room, when they got there they shook Will's hand and went inside the room. The young teen was asleep due the medication. Hank was on her left side he held one of her hands and began brushing her hair back.
"It's alright sweetheart I'm here now. You're ok". Hank spoke gently.
Josh took Jordan's other hand and gently rubbed a thumb over her knuckles, a smile appeared on his face when he looked at his niece all he saw was his sister.
"You're gonna be safe Jo I promise". Josh whispered.
District 21
Phil was still in the interrogation room he managed to get out of the cuffs and pull his phone out.
"They know everything...Yes I know what to do". He then hung up.
The agent then pulled out a small pocket knife and slit his throat, he was gasping for air just as his throat was bleeding fast.
The team was still in the squad they knew that Phil was very quiet after Hank had left so Adam decided to go check on the man. Once he got to the interrogation room he opened the door to see Phil sitting there, blood was all over him and his clothes, and his eyes shut. Quickly rushing to him he checked for a pulse but there wasn't one.
"Hey! Call a bus!" Adam called out to the squad.
When they heard that they all rushed back there to see what happened, they seen Adam kneeling in front of Phil was was sitting there dead. The young Detective picked up the bloodied knife.

"Yes sir. Were ready when you are". Miguel replied.
The cartel leader looked back at the board of pictures, he picked up a few darts and threw them at the pictures of Hank and Josh. He then went over to the board and snatched a picture of Jordan off of it.
