Adam and Kim got to the Emergency Department of Chicago Med and found Antonio, Erin, and Al there discussing something.
"What happened?" Adam asked.
"From what we can tell the perp was waiting for Kevin and Shayne in Kevin's apartment and attacked when they walked in after Shayne's class. It looks like he went after her first trying to slit her throat but she was moved and has a deep knife slit across her chest. Then it looks like next he went after Kevin stabbing him in the gut before Kevin got a shot off on his gun." Al explained to the two of them.
"Oh no. So did you get the guy? Is Kevin and Shayne okay?" Kim asked.
"The guy managed to get away before anyone showed up at the scene but Kevin definitely shot him so there is some blood at the crime scene we are hoping to match to someone in the system. Kevin is in surgery now and they are stitching up Shayne's cut now. I know this sounds bad but it's a good thing she is unconscious from hitting her head because with how big it is she would probably freak out watching them stitch it up. Its really bad." Erin told them.
"Did you call his mom?" Adam asked the three of them.
"She is on her way." Antonio told him. "I am going to go to the crime lab and wait until they get something on the blood or anything else from the scene. Call me with any news." He told his squad. He couldn't sit there with them when he felt like this was his fault since they didn't have anything to catch this guy and now Kevin was hurt because of it.
"I'm gonna go to Stone's place and stay with Jay. Be back up if something happens." Erin told Kim.
"Go." Kim told her. "We will call when we hear something."
"Thanks" Erin said as she walked out of the ED.
"Well there goes date three." Adam said to Kim trying to make a joke to hide is concern and worry he had for his friend.
"What are you doing?" Adam asked Kim as they sat side by side in the waiting room. "Oh. I'm adding to our list. You see when Kevin and I were on patrol together we started this list of crazy or silly jobs we could see Platt doing when she retires." Kim said. " Sitting here I remembered this video I saw on the internet this weekend of a guy who made a small train like thing and carried rescued dogs around in it. I would love to see Platt do that. So I figured I would add it to the list and tell him about it, later."
"He'd get a kick out of that. What else do you two have?" Adam asked.
"Emu farmer, competitive hot dog eater, motivational speaker, vampire slayer, and so on." Kim said.
"Let me guess vampire slayer was your idea?" Adam asked.
"Of course you know how I love my Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Kim affirmed.
The both smiled as they thought of the weekend Kim was sick with a cold and Adam volunteered to stay and binge watch Buffy with her and he ended up getting really into the show too.
Before they could say anymore the doctors approach the waiting room.
"The family of Kevin Atwater." The doctor said. Kim, Adam, and Kevin's mom all stood.
An hour later Kim found herself on the phone with Erin while she waited for Shayne to wake up in her hospital room. Kim wanted to be with Kevin but he had Adam and his mom. Shayne had no family and Kim knew Kevin would want someone with her so she wouldn't wake up alone.
"They both will make a full recovery." Kim told Erin over the phone. "Everything okay over there?"
"Stone is pissed." Erin explained. "And worried about Shayne. He also keeps muttering something about how this wouldn't be happening if Voight was here."
"I don't know. These guys are good. I don't know how much of a difference it would make." Kim said.
"Yeah. I think he thinks..." Erin started. "Where is he going? Kim I gotta go Stone is trying to go somewhere. I'll talk to you later."
Kim hung up the phone and shot a quick message to Adam a few rooms down that she talked to Erin and Shayne was still out.
A few minutes later Shayne began to stir.
Kim stood up and said softly, "Hi Shayne. Its Kim. Take it slow. You are okay."
"Ow. Everything hurts." Shayne got out.
"Yeah it will." Kim said before asking, "Shayne do you remember what happened?"
"We walked in the door and then someone grabbed me and then," Shayne said starting to remember but then asked, "Where's Kevin? Is he okay?"
"Kevin is okay. He is in a recovery room a few rooms away. He had to have surgery but the doctors say he will be okay." Kim assured her. "I know Kevin said you don't have any family but is there anyone else I can call for you?" Kim asked.
"Nope. But thank you." Shayne said. Then she asked, "What are my injuries? I just feel like everything hurts."
"Well that makes sense you are pretty bruised up. From what we can tell the guy when to slit your throat like he did the judge but something must of moved you or you struggled because he missed and you have about a six inch cut across your chest that had to get stitched up. Then you got thrown into a wall hitting your head and bruising most of your side." Kim explained.
"It was Kevin." Shayne said softly.
"What was?" Kim asked confused.
"He moved me out of the way. He saved me." Shayne confirmed.
The next morning Kim stood at the front desk of District 21 filling Platt in on Kevin and Shayne's conditions. Kevin woke up shortly after Shayne and gave Adam some details about the guy before the nurses came in to give him some drugs to put him back to sleep so his body could heal.
"So you have been working this case for three days and Atwater actually shot one of them but you still have no idea who they are?" Platt asked.
"Yes. Please don't say that to Antonio he might lose it." Kim responded.
"I will tell Dawson anything I want." Platt retorted. She went to say something else but then her mouth dropped as she looked at the front door.
Kim turned around and saw Voight walk through the door followed by Stone, Jay, and Erin.
A/N: sorry for the long delay. work has been crazy!
