Chapter 9

Erin's Point of View

A few hours into the case.

It was night by the time we had anything to go on. We had a name and a potential location. Only problem was I didn't want to take Scarlett with me to a crime scene.

"Nadia you think you could watch Scarlett for me?" I whispered so Scarlett wouldn't hear.

"I thought she was grounded? Not allowed more than 4ft away from you?" Nadia replied.

"Technically that is true but I don't want her anywhere near Yates so I want her to stay here. However I can't leave her alone so that leaves you to watch her." I explained.

Nadia looked at Scarlett who was spinning around dramatically in my chair looking totally bored and pissed off.

"Sure I guess I can keep an eye on her, you know as long as she doesn't go running off again." Nadia finally agreed.

"Don't worry I think Liv put that idea out of her head for good!" I smirked.

"Ok as long as you're sure then it's no problem watching her." Nadia smiled.

"Thank you!" I grinned before heading over to Scarlett.


Scarlett stopped spinning as she watched me approach her.

"Let me guess you need to go to a crime scene and don't want me to come with you. Therefore you have asked…" Scarlett paused to look around the room.

"Nadia I presume to watch me. You want me to stay here and do what Nadia says. That about right?" She questioned, sighing heavily as she did.

"I guess your mom does this to you a lot?" I smiled apologetically.

Rolling her eyes and putting her feet up on my desk Scarlett nodded.

"You have no idea." She mumbled before putting on her headphones.

I reached over and spun her playfully in the chair.

"I won't be long ok? After maybe we can get something to eat?" I suggested.

Scarlett nodded in response and I could have swore I saw a hint of a smile on her face.


Arriving at the crime scene we immediately sensed something was wrong. The scene wasn't like Yates and didn't match his profile, it seemed to be more of a distraction something to throw us off his scent.

"What is his game? What does he want?" I complained as we headed back to the car after examining the bodies.

Voight shrugged in response, he was a lost as the rest of us.


Scarlett's Point of View

I had just dozed off when I felt someone shaking me awake. Peeling open my eyes I saw Nadia staring down at me.

"W-W-W-What's wrong?" I yawned as I sat up straight.

I didn't even realise the time. Erin and the others had been gone over an hour.

"I need to step out and collect something for Erin. I was told you had to stay in my sight at all times…" Nadia trailed off.

"Can I please stay here? It's cold outside and I'm in a police station. What the hell could possible happen to me?" I complained.

Nadia gave me another apologetic look and I knew what her answer was going to be.

"Fine!" I sighed before getting to my feet.

"Where are we going?" I asked as I grabbed my coat.

"To get your moms birthday cake." Nadia smiled.


Erin's Point of View

"Nadia isn't answering the phone." Voight told me as we sat in the car.

I thought nothing of it until I thought back. The way Yates had looked at Nadia on his way out of the station. The way his eyes lingered on her for a moment too long. Realisation hit me like a ton of bricks.

"Hank we need to get to the station now!" I yelled as panic set in.

As Voight sped off I called Nadia's cell. There was no answer so I scrolled to Scarlett's name next.

"Come on, come on." I whispered to myself as Scarlett failed to answer to.

Seconds later we arrived at the station. Jay and the others had made it back before us and as we jumped out off the car we saw them gathered around something on the ground. Joining Jay I looked down to see what was gaining their attention. It was a smashed up cake with my name barely readable on the pavement.


"She was picking it up for you. I asked her to get it when we left….." Jay trailed off.

Everyone had a look of worry and concern written on their face. My heart felt like it had stopped beating as I looked around for any sign of Nadia. It was then a second wave of panic hit me.

"Scarlett!" I gasped causing the others to jump.

"She was with Nadia does anyone know if she left with her?" I cried.

Voight who I hadn't realised leaving appeared from inside the station.


"I checked the security footage to see when Nadia left the station. I only saw the start of the video but she left a half an hour ago with Scarlett." He informed us.

"Any sign of Yates?" Jay questioned.

"No but I need you and Ruzek to check the video in more detail. We need footage of everywhere Nadia was, including where she got the cake. There is no way Yates has gone undetected." Voight instructed.

"Y-Y-You think its Yates?" I asked.

Voight walked over and put his hands on my shoulders. I knew in that moment what his answer was going to be.

"We will get him. Erin I need you to call Liv and get her back here as soon as possible." He told me.

I nodded in response and headed into the station to make the call. I didn't know what I was going to tell her. I was just about to hit call when my phone began to ring. The caller ID read Scarlett.

My heart stopped as I hit accept….

Hope you enjoyed, please let me know your thoughts :-)
