Erin walked up the steps leading to the front doors of the Police Station. It was the first day without the sling and she was greeted by smiles and soft "Hello"s. She hoped that she could sneak in and past Platt, but no such luck. Platt was staring at her, almost as if she was waiting for Erin to walk in the door. "Lindsay! You take your skinny ass back out that door and go home or I swear I'm gonna kick you ass!" Platt said, pointing towards the door. Erin laughed as she walked up to the desk. "Nice to see you too, Sarg." and she walked past her desk and towards the gate. "Erin!" Platt yelled. "Trudy!" Erin yelled back as she continued to laugh.
Erin didn't wait for Platt to say anything back as she punched in and walked up the steps. She walked slowly into the Intelligence Office and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up at her. "Erin?" Jay said, and he got up from his desk. "Hey there, champ!" Antonio said, getting up and walking over to give her a hug. "Hey Toni." she said. The unit greeted her with gentle hugs. "Erin." Hanks rough voice interrupted everyone. Erin looked towards his office and he was standing in the doorway, his arms crossed. She walked towards him. "Not that I'm not really happy to see you, what are you doing here?"
Hank wrapped his arms around her in a hug. "I couldn't just sit around my apartment anymore. Kelly's at work and I was going crazy." Voight nodded. He knew Erin. She always had to be doing something. Working or driving or anything. She couldn't sit around for too long before she started pacing. "Well, you're just in time for lunch! What do you wanna eat? You pick." Antonio said, clapping her back before he put his jacket on.
"Oh god! I've been craving an Au Cheval burger for DAYS!" Antonio laughed. "Alright. Let's go!" Everyone started walking towards the door. "Erin..." Jay said, touching her arm lightly. She stopped and turned to look at him. "Listen..." Erin shook her head quickly. "Jay, we're not doing this okay? It's not your fault. None of this is your fault. If anything it was a freak accident." she said. Jay nodded.
He turned his head to glance out the window and he turned back at her. Erin watched his eyes as they unfocused and his head turned slowly towards the window again. "Jay?" She asked. He didn't take his eye off of what he saw. "Jay..." she went to look at what he was. He touched her shoulder lightly. "Listen to me, Erin. Stay here. Don't leave this office. Do you understand me?" and he ran after the others without another words. "Wait. Jay!" Erin yelled after him confused.
She slowly walked over to the window and looked out. What the hell did he see?
Jay caught the unit before they left the building. "Voight! Toni!"he yelled at them before he slowed down. "The car. The car that hit us. It's out front." Hank gave him a confused look. "Wait? Halstead what are you talking about?" Jay took a deep breath and tried not to talk so fast. "The accident." Antonio and Adam glanced at each other. "The car that hit us and drove away..." Hank nodded. "Okay? What about it?" Jay paused a minute before he finally said. "It's outside. I was upstairs with Erin and I saw it. Parked next to the sidewalk. It looked like someone was in it, but I couldn't tell. The windows are tinted."
Alvin could see Hank steaming and he gently put a hand on his shoulder. "Okay. Hold on. How do you know it's the car that hit you? It could just be one that looks like it." Jay shook his head. "Not only does it have dent's in the front bumper that look like it's recently been fixed, but I remember the back window had what looked like a memorial sticker on it was a cross with wings. that car has the same one."
Hank turned to walk out the door when they heard gunshots and then glass breaking from upstairs. Antonio, Adam and Alvin ran out front with they're guns ready and Hank and Jay ran back upstairs. When they finally made it up to the office, Erin was picking herself off the ground and the window that she and Jay had been looking out of had be shot in. Voight nearly ran over to Erin.
"You okay?" he asked and was looking over to try to see any injuries. "I'm fine. Hank. I'm okay." she said, putting he hands on his arm and he lifted up her shirt and looked carefully at the scar on her side that was almost healed. "What happened, Erin?" Jay asked, walking over after looking out the now open window and seeing the car was gone. He walked over and touched her shoulder and she held onto his elbow for a minute.
"I was looking out the window and I saw a car window roll down and I saw a gun. Everything happened so fast that all I could think of to do was hit the ground, then it was raining glass." She said, looking back out the window, seeing Dawson, Ruzek and Olinsky pacing around and asking people if they saw anything. "Are you sure you're okay?" Hank asked, giving her one of his bear hugs. "I'm fine dad." she said into his shoulder.
Jay looked a little surprised. He had always teased her about Voight being her secret dad, and she always got so defensive about how he wasn't. He smiled to himself as he saw them be a family. A father and his daughter. She let go of him. "I'm still hungry though." Hank and Jay laughed. The rest of the unit walked back into the office. "Holy shit. Erin, are you okay?" Adam said, looking from the window and to her. "I'm fine guys."
"Witnesses say the car was a black charger with a license plate starting with "A42". The man couldn't see the rest of it before they drove off again." Antonio said, walking over and giving Erin a hug. "One woman said that she was cautiously watching them as she was waiting for her son who was inside. Said they had been parked there for a couple minutes looking from the front door to the window they shot out and back and forth." Adam stopped and looked at Erin.
"She said that when he saw a woman, which now I'm assuming you." he said, looking back at the window. "Anyways, he saw you looking out the window, he rolled the passenger window down and aimed right at you." Jay shook his head. "That's the car that hit us. They hit us and left us there. I'm starting to think these aren't just accidents."
Hank looked worried and yet angered at the same time. "I'm starting to think someone's trying to kill Erin."
