So here I am trying to rewrite the chapter that failed…..

I'm trying something new, instead of writing the chapter on the website I am going to write it on Google Docs and then just copy and paste it to the site. So in case that happens again at least I have the chapter ready so I can just retry it. I did change it from the original, but I like it better this way.

So here we go! As requested we have a chapter on Adam! Yes the story is going to be mostly Jay, but Adam will get a sweet take down! (At least in my opinion)

Let's just hope this works, there will be swearing

I do NOT own any of the Chicago characters

Third Person

All was quiet upstairs in Intelligence. Erin, Jay and Antonio were all filling out paperwork from the homicide last week. Alvin was in Voight's office having a friendly chat about who knows what. Adam was sitting at his desk twirling a pen zoning off and Nadia was typing away on her computer.

(I miss Nadia, so I brought her back! She didn't deserve what she got)

The sound of a phone ringing caught everyone's attention as they looked up at Nadia.

"Intelligence," Nadia answered.

"Okay I'll let him know," Nadia said after a minute.

"Jay, that was Mouse. He said that you guys might wanna head over to the hospital," She informed Jay.

"Did he say why?" Jay's face got pale when Nadia had said 'Mouse'.

"Just something about an army buddy, Kendrick?" Nadia answered unsure.

"Fuck, okay, um, I'll see you guys when I get back," Jay said as he grabbed his jacket and left.

Voight and Alvin got quiet when they heard the phone ring just in case it was a case. They shared a look when Nadia said 'army buddy'. They both knew the kind of hell that Jay had seen on his tours.

At Med, before the phone call

Will was having an easy day. His shift had just started so who knew what kind of things would happen this morning. He had just ordered an x-ray for a broken arm. He made his way to the nurses station so he could fill out paperwork when he saw a familiar face.

"Kendrick?" Will asked, surprised.

"Hey, Will. Not the best way to catch up huh?" Kendrick replied with a small smile on his face.

"What the hell? I thought you were done being a hero," Will asked when he saw the bloody bandage on his shoulder. The paramedics and himself moved Kendrick to the hospital bed.

"Yeah, well you can't do much when someone breaks in and shoots at you," Kendrick said with a hint of anger in his voice.

Will just sighed as he looked at the nurse that came in to help.

"Can you have someone call District 21 and have them send down Mouse and Jay for me?" The nurse nodded and left the room.

"Come on Will, you don't have to bother them at work," Kendrick complained.

"First off this is a gunshot, the police have to be notified. Secondly I'd rather not deal with a pissed off Mouse if I didn't inform him." Will responded as he peeled off the bandage.

"Okay you have a through and through-"

"I could've told you that," Kendrick cut in.

"-Your going to need stitches," Will ignored Kedrick. Just then Mouse and Jay came into the room. Jay was smirking while Mouse looked angry. Will left to go get a suture kit.

"Hey guys! Long time no see," Kendrick let the smile fade as he saw the look on Mouse's face.

(Love the idea that Mouse is a mother hen)

"Mouse please hold off the lecture until I ask him what happened," Jay said as he pulled out a notepad and a pen. Mouse just crossed his arms and glared and Kendrick.

"So what happened?" Jay asked.

"I was brushing my teeth and I heard a noise, so I went to take a look," Kendrick answered truthfully.

"Okay and what happened after that?" Jay started to go down the list of questions that they were required to ask.

"I looked around the corner of the hall, looking towards the front door. I saw a guy, no more than 24, he was just looking around." Kendrick answered. He started to pick at his fingernails.

Will re-entered the room with the kit in hand.

"Is this a bad time?" Will asked when he saw the notepad in his younger brother's hand. Jay shook his head and gave Will a hand signal to continue into the room.

Jay looked back at Kendrick and gave him a look to continue the story.

"Okay, so after the guy entered he looked around and saw me from around the corner and reached behind his back. He pulled a gun and got a lucky- Ow!" Kendrick stopped mid-sentence and looked at Will.

"Sorry," Will gave him an apologetic look.

"As I was saying he pulled a gun and got a lucky shot," Kendrick finished.

Will had just finished with the stitches.

"Okay so you're going to want to be careful, try not to move your shoulder too much, I'll go get the paperwork for discharge,"

"Aren't the cops supposed to come down here?" Kendrick asked confused.

'Buddy your looking at the cops, after you get discharged we're going to head down to the district to make a formal case file," Jay answered as he put his notepad away.

Kendrick just groaned as he knew that Mouse was going to yell at him in the car.

Skip ahead to when they get to the precinct

Voight and Al had left his office and they were talking to the other members of the team when he was Mouse, Jay and a guy he didn't recognize. He was going to guess that it was the army buddy as he had an arm in a sling.

"So this is Kendrick Adams, someone broke into his apartment and shot him," Jay said when he saw the confused looks on everyone's face.

Voight gave him a look, but didn't say anything.

"I was wondering if we could look into it?" Jay replied to the look his boss had just given him.

"I don't see why not," Voight replied back.

Time skip- after Kendrick had given his report and left

The team were all sitting on the tops of their desk as they looked at the filled out whiteboard. Antonio was looking at Jay almost as if he was analyzing him.

"You don't believe his story," Antonio stated. Jay sighed.

"No, not one bit," Jay said, not looking at Antonio.

"Why? What reason is there to not believe him?" Erin asked.

"It just seems like he left something out. Don't you find it weird that when Ruzek asked him what the intruder looked like that he hesitated and said he didn't get a good look when he told me that he looked no older than 24?" Jay replied back, this time looking away from the whiteboard.

"Okay so we find out everything we can about this guy, everything" Voight ordered. " Erin, Jay go check out his apartment. Everyone else find something on this guy." After he was done talking he turned around and went into his office.

At the apartment

Jay and Erin had just arrived and they made their way into the building.

"What's the apartment number," Erin asked.

"204," Jay said right to the point.

"What crawled up your ass and died?" Erin asked jokingly.

"Sorry, I just wanna know what he's hiding. I mean we fought in the war together. I don't like the idea that he lied to me. If he lied about his, what else did he lie about?" Jay said as he looked at Erin.

The elevator ride up was a quiet one. The elevator dinged and the doors opened. They left and made their way to Kendrick's apartment. Just as Jay went to open the door it slammed open knocking Jay down to the floor.

"Call Voight!" Jay yelled at Erin as he got up and chased down the guy.

"Wait!- you can't go by yourself" Erin yelled, but Jay was already gone. She radioed Voight to let him know what happened and then she went the way Jay ran.

She left the building when Voight radioed that Jay and Kendrick were spotted in the park. She made her way there in record time.

Jay's P.O.V. after he started to chase Kendrick

I was knocked to the ground. I told Erin to tell Voight and started the chase. I saw the door close to the stairwell so that is where I went.

I chased this guy all the way down the stairs and to the park. He stopped in the middle of the park and I had to lock my knees to stop quickly.

"Put your hands up and get down on your knees," I yelled as I pulled out my gun and pointed it at him.

The guy turned around and I froze. It was Kendrick, the guy that pulled me out of enemy gunfire after I was shot in the torso.

"You know I can't do that Jay," He responded as he pulled out his own gun. "Now drop it Jay, don't make me do something I'll regret."

I dropped the gun and put my hands up.

"What happened to you Ken?" I immediately cursed in my mind at the use of the nickname.

"Like I said, I can't tell you," Kendrick said a little angrily.

I looked over Ken's shoulder and saw my team starting to make their way over to us. Erin looked angry and worried. Great, I'll be getting an ear full after this.

I also noticed that Ruzek was the closest to us. I quickly looked back to Kendrick, hoping I could distract him until Adam could take him down.

"Come on Ken, can't you trust me after everything we've been through?" I asked sadly. The gun lowered a little in his hands, good, I was making progress.

"I don't- I don't know what happened. I tried to call you years ago, but you never answered." The gun went back up to my head, fuck.

"Ken," I started to be cut off by Ken.

"No! Don't try and justify yourself. You weren't there when I needed you Jason." Oh that's not good. He used my full name.

(I know Jay is his full name just I think Jason would fit him anyway)

I saw Adam stop just right behind Ken when he heard my name. Right, I introduced myself as Jay.

I saw Adam put his gun away and saw him get ready to tackle him. Kendrick had information that we needed to solve this case.

In one quick movement Adam pounced, Kendrick turned around, gun moving and that's when I made my move. I took the gun out of his hands as Adam tackled him to the ground. They both hit the ground with a thud.

The rest of the team came running over so they could arrest Kendrick and check in on Adam.

I pulled Adam up from the ground when I heard Adam hiss.

"Are you okay?" I asked him to check him for injuries. He was holding his injured shoulder with his good arm.

"Yeah, uh, I think I might have just broken my collar bone," Adam said quietly. I started to laugh.

"You seriously hit him that hard?" I laughed as I grabbed my radio to call in an ambulance to get Adam checked out.

"Yeah yeah, laugh it up soldier boy," Adam replied back to me, still holding his shoulder.

"I'm never living this down," I heard him mutter before looking at Voight pushing Kendrick to his car.

"Remind me never to make Voight angry," I said to Adam.

So that's the end of the chapter! I rewrote it. I was going to wait until tomorrow because I had to dog sit during the day, but I said that I would write it today so here we are.

How did you like it?

For the next chapter I'm thinking something to do with Voight and Jay. Maybe something with Voight would be protective of his team. Maybe the chapter will take place after Erin leaves for the FBI? Let me know what you think.

Have a nice night!
