"Sir, we have a problem boss." Gornley walked right into the office interrupting the meeting between Frank and Garret breathless. Heaving a sigh at the constant interruptions Frank looked up tiredly.
"We have reports two officers responding to a shots fired inside a building are trapped after they stopped responding to the radio. One officer kept calling for help but central couldn't understand what they said," Gornley said breathlessly after racing to the fourteenth floor with the information.
Garret stopped typing his text message and looked between the two men. "What's the status," Frank questioned while rubbing his head.
"We have officers and fire fighters on scene working to get them out but it'll take awhile. Sir the officers are Jamie and officer Janko."
Frank looked up rounding his big blue eyes hearing his son's name. "I want updates soon as you get them." Giving him a nod Gornley left the room to see if he could find anything else out leaving Frank to sigh.
Over at the 5-4 unaware of what was going on with his little brother and Eddie, Danny pushed a perp he and Baez collared inside the precinct. "You have the right to remain silent so shut the hell up," Danny barked guiding him into a cell agitated. "I'll come back for my cuffs later." He slammed the door behind sighing.
"That was interesting," Baez turned to flash a warning look at the perp then followed her partner back to their desks. As they entered the large rooms conversations quickly stopped as every Detective watched the veteran walk in.
Baez looked around narrowing her eyes sensing something was up they weren't privy to. "Okay what is going on?"
It wasn't until Baez said something that Danny noticed they were being watched. Several Detectives shifted in their spots afraid to be the one who told the hot headed Danny what happened.
"Someone tell us what the hell is going on," Danny demanded tired of the silence.
Another veteran Detective Dasky who knew Danny and Joe for years cleared his throat to volunteer spilling the information. "I guess you didn't hear yet. Two uniforms responded to shots fired in an abandoned building and got trapped inside. I'm hearing it was a set up. Danny it was your brother and his partner."
Danny rounded his eyes wide before narrowing them into thin slits worry and anger he hadn't been informed sooner. "Son of a bitch," he cursed kicking the chair closest to him sending it flying into another desk. Before anyone could say anything he stormed out to make a phone call.
Phone in hand Danny dialed his father's number using the building as a support. The phone rang rang twice before Frank's voice greeted his oldest. "Hi Danny what's up?"
"When were you going to tell me about Jamie?"
Frank sighed, "Gornley just came in and informed me. We have help on scene already working to get them out. Danny I haven't told Erin yet either but Gornley promised me updates so soon as I have those ill let you know."
"I can't loose another brother dad, what happened.."
"I know, I'm not about to loose another son. I'll do whatever it takes. As far as I know they went to answer a call which we don't even know if Jamie and Eddie are the only ones in there." Danny ended the call heaving a sigh.
He looked up only then seeing Baez standing beside him with a worried expression. She lost a brother herself, knowing how hard how it wanted to show support for her partner. "My dad is going to update me. They went in on a call and got trapped and we don't know if they're alone. I lost one brother already I can't loose another."
Baez nodded sympathetically placing a hand on his shoulder
Inside the building Jamie stayed by Eddie's side tired from trying to lift the debris off her leg. "You hanging in there Eddie? "
His voice echoed through the empty building turning Jamie to check on his partner eyes widening. Eddie's head lay back, eyes closed with her chest slowly moving up and down. "Eddie, damnit." Holding one hand over her shoulder Jamie checked his radio again.
"Central 12 George we have an officer down requesting a bus forthwith so you copy?" Static responded followed by a voice breaking through.
"Copy 12 George what's your location." Jamie answered with the address looking back at Eddie worried. He rubbed a finger over her hand watching her breathing slowly hoping they can get help.
With help on the way Jamie's attention turned to his hurt partner holding her hand while they waited. "A bus is on the way Eddie talk to me okay? "
Eddie's eyes flew open meeting his immediately wide and bright blue. "My shoulder and ankle that's all Reagan. I'll be fine but your fiancé might not be when she finds out we're in here alone together."
"I don't care about that right now Eddie. Just keep your eyes open until the bus comes okay? They're going to dig us out." Jamie searched the building looking for the best way out sighing when he didn't see any. Debris and fallen building blocked all exits giving them only one option to be rescued from the outside.
At one pp Frank, Gornley, Garret and Baker stood quietly watching as officers on scene worked with FDNY firefighters to get the two officers out. Frank's eyes remained glued on the tv holding his breath until Jamie and Eddie were pulled out safely.
Behind them the doors burst open allowing Maya to step inside immediately scanning for her father in law. "Is it true? Is Jamie okay?"
"We heard from Jamie a few minutes ago, he and officer Janko are both safe and we are working on getting them out," frank assured with a sigh. He didn't miss the glare in Maya's eyes hearing her fiancé was with Eddie.
