Ok so I got a really good response from the first chapter so I had to continue :-) Not sure how long it will be! No Copyright Intended!

Chapter 2

Jay J's Point of View

My first day as a cop had got off to an ok start. I mean the older cops were calling me Linstead, but at least I knew my partner. Her name is Cam and she is Voight's granddaughter. I didn't see a lot of her growing up because her and her parents lived far away, but when I did see her we always had fun. It had been a few years since I saw her, but she had obviously moved to Chicago.

"Hey Cam, long time no see." I greeted as we met for the first time as partners.

"Jay J Halstead?" She gasped as she pulled me in for a hug.

"I can't believe we are partners. Small world." She remarked as she released me.

"I know. Couldn't have asked for a better one." I smiled.

Cam blushed slightly at the compliment.

"Yeah me neither." She agreed.

"Hey you two, you know this is work right?" The desk sergeant snapped at us.

Cam tried to contain a snigger as we made our way back to the desk.

"Good so you do know." The sergeant sighed as we stood in from of him.

"Well we have ears, and we are wearing the uniform." I mumbled sarcastically.

Unfortunately he heard me.

"Oh Mr sarcastic, well that just earned you two school patrol." He grinned.

He handed over the keys and waved us off.


"Bet he also gave us the crap car." Cam complained as we found our car.

Sure enough it was the oldest and most beat up of the lot.

"Great first day huh?" I laughed as we got into the car.

"Oh yeah one to remember." Cam joked.

Driving towards our given location we saw just how boring our day was going to be. There was nobody around, no kids skipping school not even a suspicious dog walker, there was nothing. I parked the car as we sat in silence.

"Well this is exciting." Cam sighed.

"We could go for a walk?" I suggested.

"Yeah sounds good." She smiled as we got out of the car.


We started walking around, looking for anything we could do but unfortunately there was nothing. Eventually we stopped at a café and went in for something to eat.

"So what made you want to be a cop?" I asked as we ate.

"I dunno I guess my gramps, you?" She replied.

"My parents, and your gramps." I laughed.

"Ohh and I guess my sister." I added.

"I forgot everyone in your family was part of the force. How is Erin anyway?" Cam asked.

"She's good, still at the station with my dad. So not at all awkward for me." I sighed.

Cam laughed in response.

"How do you think I feel? My granddad is Hank Voight, feared by all criminals and some cops. He was a legend at the station, still is." Cam replied.

"Yeah well my mom was pretty much raised by Voight, not to mention trained in his unit along with my dad." I sighed.

"Guess we both have higher standards than the rest to meet." Cam said.

I nodded in response.

"I have a suggestion, how about right now we make a deal?" She suggested.

"A deal?" I questioned.

"Yeah a deal. We don't let our family names stop us being ourselves. We will always have each others back and we will make our own stories to tell." Cam smiled.

"That my dear partner is a great idea!" I agreed.

"You have a deal!" I added as I shook her hand.

She smiled at me and I don't know what it was, it was like we had a connection. I was too lost in thought that she had to clear her throat to get me to release her hand.

"Sorry." I mumbled as I pulled my own back.


Heading back to the station after the most boring shift ever I wasn't expecting to see a crowd of other uniforms in the entrance.

"What's going on?" I asked the desk sergeant as I returned the keys to the car.

"Don't know we are waiting for Intelligence to fill us in." He replied.

I nodded in response as my parents and their team appeared at the top of the stairs. Mom waved at me like an idiot as I tried to avoid eye contact. However her waving didn't go unnoticed as some of the other uniforms laughed. I turned bright red as I looked away.

"Ok here is the situation. We have a killer on the loose. He escaped custody as of an hour ago thanks to an idiot mistake." Dad said as he looked towards a tearful uniform.

"We need all of you on the streets looking for this man." Mom continued as she held up a picture.

Some of the others on her team passed around spare copies.

"He is considered incredibly dangerous, already murdered 5 people including 2 cops. So be careful do not approach him alone and do not do anything to provoke him in public." Dad instructed.

It was strange seeing them being totally professional. I mean I had seen them at work before but not like this. They held everyone's attention and some uniforms seemed to be in awe as they spoke.

"Ok that's everything. Now he could be anywhere so make sure we check bus stations, train stations, the docks anywhere he might try to escape from." Mom finished.

All the uniforms on the floor nodded and headed out. Cam and myself where about to leave when I felt someone pull me back. It was mom.


"Be careful?" She said.

"Really mom?" I complained.

Cam must have noticed I wasn't beside her as she came back looking for me.

"You're his partner?" Mom grinned when she saw her.

"Yeah isn't it great?" Cam smiled.

Mom nodded in response.

"Good to know you two will always have each others back." Mom agreed.

"That we will, now can we go?" I replied.

"Of course." Mom nodded.

"Be careful Jay J!" Dad called from the stairs.

"I will!" I called back.

Mom gave us a final wave as we left the station.


"Your mom is pretty cool." Cam said as we walked.

"Not when you're a guy trying to be a cop and your mom is always there, waving and checking up on you!" I complained.

"Don't look at it like that, look at it as Sergeant Lindsay Halstead watching over you." She replied.

"Makes it much better thanks!" I said sarcastically.

Cam was about to reply when the sound of a gun blasted from just ahead….

Thanks to all of you who favourited, followed and reviewed last chapter it means a lot :-) Until next time ;-)
