Chapter 36
"You called Voight!?" Rebekah yelled.
"Our deal was that I wouldn't call Jay or Mouse." Clarke said with a smile. "How is your leg feeling?"
"I still can't move it, but I can still feel it." Rebekah told him. "I'm getting cold though."
Hermann gave Clarke a blanket which he draped over her. "Thank you."
"Hey Kelly." Rebekah spoke up a little while later. "I don't mean to tell you how to do your job, but I suggest you hurry up because there is smoke coming from the engine."
"Well then, it's a good thing I'm almost there." He answered while opening the door of the car. "Shay! Bring me the backboard so we can move her."
"I don't need one, I'm fine. I'll just walk over to the ambo." Rebekah complained.
"I know you can walk over there yourself, but I don't want to get punched by either Halstead brother for not making sure you were safe." He replied with a serious face.
"Fine." Rebekah told him moping.
"You have the same look on your face as Jay did when you said you didn't sent him any more cookies because you thought he was getting fat." Clarke said making Rebekah laugh.
Mouse walked down the stairs and saw the front desk swarmed with people.
"Excuse me, Sergeant." An unknown male asked her.
"What do you want" Sergeant Platt responded.
"It's my daughter. She's missing. She's only 18." The man told her.
Platt looked up and told him: "Then technically, she's an adult, so you'll have to go to missing persons. That's area three, Belmont and Western."
The man started to become angry: "I already did that. They sent me to district 30. District 30 sent me over here."
Mouse walked up to Trudy and asked: "Hey, Sarge. I need your signature on this requisition form. Voight wants new pinhole cameras."
"Not now, Mouse." Trudy responded irritated.
"He was very clear about his instructions." He countered "You gonna send me back empty-handed?"
"My daughter is missing! Sarah Frazier. She's been gone three months." The man yelled.
Platt looked at him and said: "Sir, lower your voice and back up."
Mouse looked at Trudy and spoke up: "Okay, it's really not that big a deal. You just take that little pen…"
He was interrupted by the man holding a gun to his head. Platt took her gun and pointed it at the man's head. Both Burgess and Roman did the same.
"You gonna listen to me now?" The man said.
Arriving at the hospital on the gurney she saw doctor Rhodes approach her.
"She was in the car crash along with the two others that were brought in earlier. She's going to need stitches on her forehead and an x-ray for her left leg." Shay told him.
"Let's get her into room 4." Doctor Rhodes said walking along with them.
"Do you want me to stay with you?" Shay asked.
"I would rather know how Caroline and Elisabeth are doing." Rebekah said.
"I'll see what I can find out." She said leaving the room.
"You drop that gun, or we drop you!" Burgess yelled while keeping the gun pointed at the man's face.
Voight came down the stairs and yelled: "No one is dropping anyone. Get these people out of here."
Burgess started to move everyone out. As soon as all civilians were out Voight spoke up again. "Sir, whatever this is, we can work it out."
The man became desperate "I tried to do the right thing, but no one would listen! That's far enough! The cops in Iowa… The cops in Iowa, they laughed at it. They said my daughter ran away. I know my daughter. She didn't run away."
"So you walk into a police district, pull a gun, and take a hostage? You can't expect to walk out of this." Voight unbelievingly said.
"I don't. And I don't give a damn. I gave my daughter a credit card for emergencies. Now, someone here in Chicago used it last week. That means she's here. I know it. I know it… " The man dropped the bag he was holding and shoved it towards Voight. "Everything's in there."
"All right, good. Now you gotta release my guy." Voight demanded.
"Find Sarah." The man bargained.
"That's not how it works." Voight countered.
"That's how it works today! Anybody makes a move, he dies!" He yelled as he dragged Mouse into the commander's office.
Voight looked at Mouse who told him. "I'm cool. Everybody's cool." The man made Mouse close and lock the door.
"Keep a bead on his forehead. He stops holding up his end of the bargain, you drill him. You understand?" Voight told Burgess and Roman.
"No problem." Roman replied.
Voight walked back up the stairs where Erin was working. He approached her and spoke up: "We got another problem, before all this happened, I was on the phone with Clarke from firehouse 51, Rebekah was in a car crash."
"Is she okay?" Erin asked worriedly.
"Clarke said she has been stuck in the car, I just got a text saying they got her out and she's on her way to the hospital." Voight said. "I need Jay here, so I need you to go to the hospital."
"Okay, what do I tell Jay?" Erin asked.
"Nothing. I need him completely focused on getting Mouse out." Voight said.
"I'm not going to tell Rebekah about this either, but keep me posted on what's happening." Erin said taking her things. Jay walked up to the floor and saw Erin leave.
"Hey, where are you going?" Jay asked.
"With what's going on, Voight doesn't want me anywhere near here." Erin lied.
"Has Rebekah arrived yet?" Jay asked worriedly.
"No, She had some car trouble. I'm meeting with her. Voight ordered her to stay away as well for her own safety." Erin continued lying.
"Good, tell her I will do whatever it takes to get him out." Jay said.
"She knows you will." Erin answered, she gave him a kiss and left for the hospital.
Erin arrived at Chicago Med after stopping at Rebekah's place to pick up some clothes. She ran into Will in the Emergency Department.
"Hey Will." Erin spoke up.
"Hey, what's going on at the district?" Will quietly asked.
"News travels fast. A guy walked in armed and took Mouse hostage. Voight wanted Jay fully focused, and me nowhere near the station at this moment so he sent me to check on Rebekah.
"What happened to Rebekah?" Will asked confused.
Outside of the precinct Commander Fisher had joined them as he asked: "What do we know?"
Dawson spoke up: "Name's Jeff Frazier. He's 44, lives in Ankeny, Iowa. No criminal priors, no history of mental illness. Last November, his daughter, Sarah, disappeared. Three days later, they found her car in an Amtrak parking lot. No record of her ever buying a ticket."
Ruzek looked at the tablet he was holding and said: "Boss, credit card story checks out. Three months of inactivity, then Sarah's card bought five flat-screen TVs in little village just last week."
"Run with it." Voight told them to as Ruzek and Dawson left.
"Sit down. Sit down, sit down." The man ordered Mouse.
"Somebody keeps pointing a gun at me, I'd at least like to get his name." Mouse said as he said down.
"What do you care?" The man asked.
"Oh, that's an outrageous question to ask? My name's Greg Gerwitz. Everybody calls me Mouse. See… See, no big deal." Mouse rambled.
"Frazier, Jeff Frazier. Now shut up." he spoke.
"Do you need me to page your brother?" doctor Rhodes asked.
"Only if you want to witness him yelling at me for not being careful enough and that I've been here way too much for his liking." Rebekah said. "Besides, he'll find out soon enough."
"I'm sure he'll we worried about you." Doctor Rhodes said.
"You don't know Will as well as I." Rebekah said with a smile. "the first thing he's going to say when he walks into my room will be 'what the hell were you thinking'"
"Okay, can you move your toes for me?" he asked.
Rebekah did so wincing. "It hurts doesn't it?" he asked looking at her.
"I would so like to say no so I can get out of here, but it does hurt yes." Rebekah said with a sigh.
"Well, it's not broken, just badly sprained. I'm going to bandage it up and it should be better by next week." He said. "I'm going to stitch the cut now."
Rebekah looked scared at him making him laugh.
"Don't tell me you're scared of a little needle. This is nothing compared to last time I had to stitch you up." he said.
"Yeah, only difference is that last time I was unconscious." Rebekah nervously said.
"When did you serve?" Mouse asked Jeff. Seeing him confused he continued. "Your sidearm-it's military issue. M9. When I asked you your name, you said your last name first. I was rangers. 75th regiment. I did... Two tours in the Korengal Valley."
"Marines." Frazier said. "Gunnery sergeant, sixth division. Took a few strolls through Baghdad. I was gone pretty much from the time Sarah was born till she got her learner's permit."
"That's… That's got to be hard." Mouse emphasized.
"You did it. You got me talking" Frazier said with a huff. "Your sergeant looking for Sarah... Can I trust him?"
"Hank Voight? Picking his district was about the only thing that you did right today." Mouse told Frazier.
The door opened and Will stormed in along with Erin. "What the hell were you thinking?" he yelled.
"Told you so." She said to doctor Rhodes with a smile. "Hey Erin, where are Jay and Mouse?"
"They're stuck on an assignment. And seeing as Voight doesn't allow me to do anything he sent me to stay with you." Erin explained, but I sensed something was off.
"Hello, can we get back to the fact that you're in the hospital again!" Will said.
"It wasn't my fault, the other guy ran a red light." Rebekah exclaimed.
"I don't care whose fault it is. I care about the fact that you got hurt. Again!" Will told her.
"Look, I don't mean to interrupt this family dispute. But if you want me to stitch up that cut, you need to hold still." Doctor Rhodes interrupted.
"Can you please hold my hand?" Rebekah asked Will quietly holding out her hand.
"As long as you don't break it like last time." He answered with a smile.
"Come on, I was 5, that wasn't my fault." Rebekah told him.
I hoped you liked this chapter. Let me know what you think!
