Antonio pulled his notes from his pocket. "A witness saw Spencer leaving a few minutes before the fire started, at least the witness that Voight interviewed. The other witnesses were too shaken up to talk."

Kayla crossed her arms. "So my guess was right."

"Yeah but now he's probably going to hide out. We have warrants to search the houses of a few more people and then we can work from that information."

"Come on, Detective. Stop talking." Mills put the oxygen mask over Antonio's face again and Kayla laughed as he threw an annoyed glare at the paramedic. "Don't hate on me. I'm just trying to do my job."

Kayla patted Antonio's leg. "He'll be okay, right?"

Peter nodded. "He should be fine. How about your burns?"

She shrugged but held her arm out. "It still hurts but it's not the first or last time I'll be burned."

Mills nodded. "I noticed your scarring earlier. What happened?"

"Long story short, I was in the military, a flame thrower was involved, and it ended in a very bad day for the other guy."

Mills laughed and covered her burns. "We'll be at the hospital in a few minutes. Those are some pretty bad burns."

"Yeah, I think I might have been burned on my back too. I'm just now starting to feel it."

She turned around and Mills sighed. "How did this happen?"

"I was trying to keep the debris from hitting Antonio."

Antonio shook his head and pulled the mask off his face. "Hero."

"I know. I try my hardest."

They were cleared for work but Voight made them take the night off. Antonio dropped her off at her hotel but as he was about to leave she called out his name softly.

"What's up?"

"I might sound like an idiot but I usually watch a movie on Friday nights and since I don't know too many people here, would you want to watch one with me?"

He smiled and nodded at her innocent look. "Yeah, sure. What movie?"

She held up the second Avengers movie. "I'm a sucker for superheroes."

It was near the end and they were watching it comfortably from her bed. She was sitting up near the middle while he was leaned up against the headboard. "Man, that robot did not like him."

"Nah. He's fine. He just needs... A miracle." She was frowning at the screen.

"He's not fine."

She crossed her arms. "A girl can dream, okay Antonio?"

He laughed at her face. "Yeah. Right."

After the end credit scene, she showed Antonio a response from her old Air Force buddy she had messaged while they were on their manhunt. "I was thinking that you and me could convince Halstead to go in a few days."

"I think that's a great idea."

The next morning, they got straight to work. They broke into their teams and started searching out some of their leads. The final house they were about to search got their hearts racing. The person that answered the door was a little girl who had been crying.

Kayla peered inside the door with her hand on her gun. "Hey sweetie. Where are your parents?"

"They left for a party two hours ago."

"Are you here alone?"

"My brother is here but his friend is scaring me."

Kayla looked back at her partners. "Okay. I need you to stay quiet and stay out here with this nice police officer. We'll go stop your brother's scary friend." Halstead picked up the girl who couldn't have been more than 4 years old and took her to the other side of their car.

Antonio and Kayla cautiously entered the house. They heard talking above them and proceeded up the stairs, guns drawn. She kicked down the door with the voices behind it. It was Spencer and a friend, both of them playing with knives.

"Get down on the ground!" They did as Antonio said and got on their knees. Kayla walked toward Spencer but let her guard down. Spencer kicked her legs out from underneath her. Spencer's friend leapt onto Antonio.

Kayla dropped her gun when her head hit the hardwood floor. Spencer pulled his knife and tried to stab her with it. She managed to grab his wrist and she struggled with the blade inches from her face. She managed to get it aimed toward the floor and she let go. He stabbed into the floor but she sat up and head butted him. He fell backwards and tried to punch her in the face as soon as he regained some of his footing. She dodged it and grabbed his arm, throwing him against the wall. She didn't hesitate to snap the bones in his forearm. As he cried out in pain, she grabbed hold of his hair. "I've got you now, you murderer." She slammed his head into the wall repeatedly until he was bleeding.

Kayla pulled him off the wall and he fell to his knees. She kicked him in the back and he hit the floor. She cuffed him before looking up at Antonio. He was holding the other kid down but he gave Kayla a proud nod. He grabbed his phone and called dispatch. "It's Detective Dawson. Be advised we have Spencer Johnson in custody."

In a matter of minutes, the rest of the Intellegince unit was arriving, storming the house with their rifles and handguns. They found the kicked in door and saw Kayla sitting in a chair with her feet on Spencer's back. "Hey guys. What took you so long?" She let Ruzek and Olinsky walk Spencer and his friend down the stairs.

"Who beat the crap out of him?" Voight looked between the two detectives.

Kayla raised her hand. "That would be me. I might have broken his arm so he might need to go to the hospital before anything else."

"Yeah, I noticed the blood." He nodded at her with a look of amusement on his face. "You are damn good. If you ever need a job or a change of scenery, you have yourself a job in the Intelligence unit."

"I'll keep that in mind Sergeant." She ran down the stairs with a huge smile plastered on her face with Antonio right behind her. They walked outside in time to see the two people being put in the back of a police transport van. Kayla took the kid from Halstead and noticed she was calm now. "You got the bad guy!"

Kayla nodded. "Yes, we finally did. What's your name sweetie?"

"My name is Rachel. Why was he bleeding?"

Kayla bit her lip and looked at Lindsay who just laughed. "Well Rachel, your new friend here, Detective Ray, just so happens to be a super hero and it's her job to protect people like you. But the bad guys tend to put up a fight. She only did it to protect herself."

"Oh. Then that's okay." Rachel's parents ran down the sidewalk and Lindsay explained the situation to them as they held onto their daughter.

"You really beat him up good." Kayla jumped when Antonio snuck up behind her.

"I'm just lucky it was normal dry wall I bashed his face in. I wouldn't have stopped if it was brick."

"What do you think of the job Voight offered?"

Kayla bit her lip. "I don't know. It's actually very tempting. I would say yes if I were single and my family didn't live five minutes from my house but I think I'd miss being so close to them."

"Then I guess I'll just have to visit you."

"I welcome it."

When they returned to their unit, Sergeant Platt, Officers Burgess and Roman, and Gabby Dawson were waiting for them. "Good job Kayla!" Gabby started clapping and everyone joined in. Kayla just shook her head and laughed.

"Thanks guys. I appreciate it." Kayla sat next to Antonio's desk.

Gabby stood in front of her, beaming. "On behalf of the Chicago Fire Department, thank you for finally taking that guy out. Who knows how many people you have saved."

"Well thank you for saving the two of us from that fire. I honestly thought we were going to die in there."

Antonio put an arm around his sister and kissed her on the side of her head. "No way. My sister would never have let that happen."

Everyone got back to work except for Antonio and Kayla who just sat behind his desk and discussed their victory. She showed Antonio something on her phone then the two of them approached Halstead. "Jay."

Jay started to pile up his case documents. "What's up you two?"

"Would you perhaps be interested in taking a day trip tomorrow?"

"Why?" He looked very suspicious of the two as they kept glancing at each other.

"I know the perfect way to celebrate since it was our team that brought Spencer down, you know, technically."

"I'm not sure I trust you. But fine."

Antonio raised an eyebrow then looked at Kayla. "That was a lot easier than I thought it would be."

"Let's just be glad he said yes. Now let's get some coffee. I need a caffeine boost." The two friends walked into the break room and sat down as they kept talking.

"Okay, what?" Jay looked over at Olinsky. "Do you know what that was about?"

Olinsky kept typing. "All I know is that is one of the best partnerships I've ever seen."

"I know, too good. And too close. Isn't she married?"

Olinsky shrugged. "I don't know. I think so. But I think they're just friends."

Halstead sighed and turned back to his work. "I just want to know where we are going tomorrow."
