Episode 10 (Whispers in the Dark)
Garage
"I want you to slowly hand me your phone" Calvin told Danny still holding him at gun point as he lifted Danny's gun, Danny didn't speak just slowly reached into his pocket and handed his phone over "Now put the car in drive" Danny did what he was told and put the car and drive and left the garage
"Go to 32 East 94th street" Calvin told Danny who still didn't speak, just followed the directions
Crime Lab
Lindsay was in the lab finishing up some tests when Stella walked in
"Hey kiddo got those results?" Stella asked and Lindsay smiled
"Right here" Lindsay stated proudly handing the file to her
"Thanks" Stella said looking over the file "What is that?" Stella asked glancing at Lindsay's ring
"You were right" Lindsay told her "We're much happier together then we are apart"
"See I told you" Stella smiled
"As soon as this mess is over and we can bring Lucy home everything is going to be back to normal" Lindsay told her
"Good" Stella said with a laugh "Seeing you two together at work but not really together was hard on everyone here"
"Sorry to hear that" Lindsay mocked
"It's true no one knew what to say to either of you" Stella continued "But it all worked out"
"It did" Lindsay said then looked at her watch "Speaking of, I'm going to call my daughter and say good night"
"Tell her Aunt Stella sends her love" Stella called after Lindsay as she left the room
Warehouse
Danny walked into the warehouse Calvin directed him too, with a gun still pointed to the back of his head as soon as they entered Calvin hit Danny in the back of the head and he fell to the floor. About twenty minutes later Danny awoke in the dark warehouse, he was chained to a pipe and sitting on the floor
"Good you're up" Calvin smiled "Thought I killed ya and that wouldn't have been fun" and Danny still didn't respond "Still have nothing to say to me huh? That's ok I'll get you talking. I hear you got my sister? That's a shame but she was really just a means to an end. It's weird ya know? It's kind of like were family- you've been with my sister, I've been with your wife. It's like were always going to be connected, how does that feel?" he asked Danny who just stared at him
"You know what else? Those chains you're tied up with are the same chains I used on your wife a year ago, I bet some of her blood is still on there" Calvin told him with a laugh "I'm guessing Julia told you why I'm doing this?" he asked and Danny just watched him "I know it seems crazy after all these years but I loved her, loved her more then anyone and I couldn't protect her- just like you couldn't protect Lindsay. Sad it's like we're the same type of person you know? I bet if things would have worked out differently we could have been friends. But no that's not going to happen" Calvin told him as he pulled a chair over to Danny and sat and continued to talk to him "I've been following you know for a long time. I heard all about that cop they thought you accidentally killed, your brother's accident, your former partner Aiden Burn's murder, you being held hostage, that neighbor kid of yours dying while on your watch, you getting married, you having a little girl, getting shot at a bar" Calvin said "And you always walked away unscathed don't you find something wrong with that? I mean you couldn't protect your brother, you couldn't protect your partner, you couldn't protect that little boy you were in charge of and you couldn't even protect yourself. Then you think you'd learn with Lindsay but no you couldn't even keep your own wife safe" Calvin said shaking his head "You're useless and pathetic" after a few moments Calvin waited for Danny to respond but he never did "You really hate me that much? I heard a rumor you wont even say my name" Calvin smiled "That's good I'm glad I have that effect on you. But I need you talking" Calvin said pulling out Danny's phone "I'll just call Lindsay and see if-"
"Don't-" Danny said quickly
"There we go" Calvin said putting down the phone "Wouldn't want Lindsay involved again would ya? I mean I've been dying to see her again"
"Leave her the hell alone" Danny warned in a low voice
"You know Stacy was the only women I was ever with before Lindsay" Calvin told Danny "I was with her since I was fifteen and I was fine with that, then came along Lindsay. She had an innocence about her just like Stacy and I liked that"
"This is about you and me, not her" Danny reminded him
"No" Calvin said to him calmly "This is about Stacy"
"What do you want from me?" Danny asked him seriously "An apology? Is that what this is about? Because I am sorry about Stacy I really am I never wanted an innocent person to die. But I wont apologize to you for it because I don't owe you anything"
"You don't owe me?" Calvin asked standing up abruptly "You take a way the one person in my life that I had left. You took away the only good thing I had left, you ruined me!" Calvin yelled then punched Danny and his mouth immediately started to bleed and Danny wanted to fight back but couldn't since his hands were still tied up "You're going to know what that feels like"
"I do know" Danny said spitting out blood "Believe me I know, I know what you did to Lindsay and it tore us apart. I lost Lindsay that day and I never got her back fully. Not the way she was before that. She used to always smile and see the good in everything, you stole a piece of her that day she is never going to get back!" Danny yelled at him
"At least you still have her" Calvin told him calmly "At least you're working on it and I know you are because I've been watching. I've seen her come to your place, I've seen you two take little Lucy to school, I've seen you both at work" Calvin said to him
"I heard you were watching me for a long time before you took her too" Danny told him letting him know he knew everything
"Yea" Calvin said with laugh "It was so calming to me to watch your family knowing I was going to be the one to take it all away from you. It drove me a little crazy knowing you were so happy but the joy that came to my life the day I had Lindsay is something I can't even describe"
"You're sick" Danny told him "Is this what Stacy would have wanted for you?"
"I don't know" Calvin mocked "I can't call her up and ask her now can I" then Calvin pulled out Danny's phone and started typing
"What are you doing?" Danny asked as he watched Calvin type away
"It's going to be a lonely here" Calvin told him "We can use some entertainment"
"Don't involve Lindsay in this" Danny warned him the Calvin finished what he was typing and closed Danny's phone
"Or what?" Calvin asked him
"I will kill you" Danny threatened "I promise you involving Lindsay in this again will be the last thing you do"
"And there he is!" Calvin shouted with a smile and clapped "That cold, bitter Danny Messer I remember"
"I mean it" Danny warned "I will get out of these chains and kill you with my own bare hands"
"I'd like to see you try" Calvin smirked "I've missed Lindsay we have a lot to catch up on" he said standing up and putting on his jacket
"Where are you going?" Danny asked alarmed
"Don't worry about it, I wouldn't leave you here to die alone. I'll be back" Calvin said with a wink "Oh and scream all you want, no one will hear you" he said then left the warehouse
Crime Lab
"Heading out Lindsay?" Mac questioned as Lindsay walked to the elevator
"Yea I'm meeting Danny at my place" Lindsay told him as she waited for the elevator door to open
"You have a police escort?" Mac questioned as the doors opened
"She does now" Flack smiled "I was just coming to check on you"
"Thanks Flack" Lindsay smirked "See all safe"
"Alright" Mac said "I'll see you and Danny tomorrow" he told her as Lindsay joined Flack on the elevator
"So where are we headed?" Flack asked as the elevator started to move
"My place" Lindsay told him "He was supposed to pick me up but he has a big surprise for me at my place"
"Does that have anything to do with the ring on your finger?" Flack teased
"Maybe, maybe not" Lindsay told him as the elevator reached it's destination and they walked off together
Lindsay's apartment
Flack walked Lindsay to her door
"I think I'm good here" Lindsay told him
"Sorry Linds" Flack shrugged "I gotta make sure Danny's already here"
"I feel like I'm being baby-sat" Lindsay sighed as she put her key in the door and candles were lit all over the place "See" Lindsay told him
"Romantic" Flack snorted "Messer will never live this down" he said as Lindsay fully walked into the place
"Be nice" Lindsay warned "Thanks for the ride"
"Anytime" Flack told her "Have fun" he added then Lindsay closed the door, Lindsay placed her bag down and walked further into the apartment "Danny?" she questioned looking around and stopped in the living room, she turned slightly and noticed a jacket hanging on her couch, a jacket she knew wasn't Danny's
"Flac-" she started to scream out but a hand covered her mouth and pushed her on to the floor and quickly a couch pillow was covering her face
Outside the apartment Flack thought he heard something but wasn't sure if it came from Lindsay's apartment just then the elevator doors opened
"Are you coming on?" An elderly women questioned as Flack started to walk on then he stopped
"You know what? I'll catch the next one" Flack said then headed towards Lindsay's apartment
Inside Lindsay was still struggling with the pillow over her face after about a minute Calvin lifted the pillow and placed his cold hands over Lindsay's mouth
"If you scream I'll kill you" Calvin warned pulling out Danny's own gun and held it to the side of her head
"Lindsay" they heard at the door it was Flack again "Linds open up now" he said still knocking, Calvin removed his eyes from Lindsay who was now crying "This isn't funny, if you don't open this door now I'm kicking it in I don't care what you two are doing" he said seriously
"Don't say a word" Calvin warned "Or I'll kill your friend got it?" Lindsay who was terrified just nodded as Calvin slowly got off of Lindsay leaving her absolutely frozen on the floor. He walked over to the door and carefully opened it hiding behind it as Flack walked in
"Lindsay" Flack said walking in but couldn't see her he walked fully in and heard the door close behind him and saw turned to see Calvin Troy holding a gun
"Flack is it?" Calvin asked with a smile "Give me your gun"
"Where's Lindsay?" Flack asked ignoring his demand
"Gun now" Calvin demanded
"Not happening" Flack said to him as he slowly reached for his gun to pull on Calvin, Calvin shot him sending him to flying to the floor
"Flack!" Lindsay yelled running over to him but Calvin grabbed Lindsay by the back of her hair and pulled her to him
"Linds" Flack said weakly
"Why did you shoot him!" Lindsay yelled trying to get out of Calvin's grip
"He didn't listen" Calvin told her coolly "And you should know better then anyone what happens when you don't listen to me"
"We're leaving" Calvin said dragging Lindsay's arm
"I'm not going anywhere with you" Lindsay said then Calvin backhanded Lindsay sending her to the floor as he did so Flack pulled his gun out and shot Calvin in the arm from the floor but before he could fire again Calvin shot Flack again, causing him to drop his gun
"Come on" Calvin said still holding his gun pointed at Lindsay "If you don't leave with me now I'll keep shooting him until I know he's dead" he warned then Lindsay stood up and walked ahead of Calvin and left the apartment after her taking one last look at Flack who was bleeding and seemingly lifeless
Warehouse
Danny was in the warehouse banging the chains that kept him bound against the pipe hoping to break the pipe but there was no luck but that didn't stop him- from the moment Calvin left he had done this and only stopped when he heard the door of the warehouse, it was very dark in the warehouse so Danny couldn't see who entered, then one light flicked on and Danny saw the last thing he wanted to see in the room with him- Lindsay.
"Danny" Lindsay said rushing over to him "Are you ok?"
"What are you doing here?" Danny questioned
"He got to me" Lindsay told him
"Did he hurt you" Danny asked looking at the now forming bruise on her cheek
"He shot Flack" Lindsay told him threw tears "Twice I think he's dead Danny" she said as Calvin walked over to them
"Look a happy reunion" Calvin smirked, there was blood on his arm from the gun shot that grazed him
"Look" Danny started "You want to punish me right? Make me pay? Then do it just let Lindsay leave"
"She's not going anywhere" Calvin told him "Either are you"
"Just leave him alone" Lindsay said to him
"Linds do not talk to him ok?" Danny told her "Don't look at him-"
"That's going to be a little difficult" Calvin smirked "Come on baby you're going to help me out" he said running his hand threw Lindsay's hair causing her to shiver
"Don't touch her" Danny warned
"Big talk for a man tied up" Calvin said to him then as he continued to run his hands threw her hair he clenched her hair and dragged her away from Danny and she yelped in pain "I've got a cut you have to fix" Calvin said turning her so she was looking him in the eye as Danny watched helplessly
"I'm not going to help you with anything" Lindsay said to him "Unless you let Danny go"
"This isn't a choice Lindsay" Calvin said slightly pulling her head back with the tight grip he still had on her hair "You do what I say and I wont shoot you or Danny"
"Lindsay just do what he says" Danny told her as he tried to stand up "Just do it" he repeated and Lindsay looked towards him and she could tell he was terrified
"Fine" Lindsay mumbled and Calvin let go
"Good girl" Calvin smiled walking over to a cabinet and pulled out a first aid kit, he removed his jacket and shirt and Lindsay walked over to him and looked at the wound
"It's just a graze" Lindsay mumbled opened the kit as Danny watched intently
"Well must be my lucky day" Calvin smiled then turned to Danny and smiled wider as Lindsay applied alcohol to the wound and started to bandage it up "I really appreciate you helping me out" he said turning to Lindsay who in turn just glared at him
"Didn't have much of a choice now did I?" Lindsay questioned as Danny continued to watch then she finished up his arm in silence "Done" she mumbled
"Good girl" Calvin replied running his finger over her cheek and she flinched
"Stop" Danny told him "She did what you asked"
"You are so nosey" Calvin laughed "Montana and I here share some history"
"Don't call her that" Danny told him and Calvin laughed
"Fine, fine" Calvin smiled standing up then kneeled into Lindsay to be in perfect view of her who was sitting on a chair "Do you ever think about us? The night we shared together?"
"No" Lindsay told him and he smiled
"Come on" Calvin smiled "The real reason you left Danny was because you longed to be with me, I know that"
"You make me sick" Lindsay told him
"That's not nice" Calvin frowned as he leaned in and gave her a soft kiss on the cheek
"Calvin!" Danny yelled and he turned slowly to Danny and walked over to him
"Did you just call me by my name?" Calvin asked "That's an honor"
"That night at the deli" Danny started "I remember it perfectly" he said knowing talking about it would take his attention off of Lindsay "And you want to know the truth? I didn't look around to see if someone else was hurt I just wanted to catch the guy who shot my friend, my training officer and I didn't think twice I just left your girlfriend there to die"
"I knew it" Calvin said angrily walking towards Danny "You selfish son of a bitch" Calvin said pulling his gun out and pointing it at Danny
"And then I found out Stacy died and no one even wrote about her, no one cared" Danny said egging him on
"Shut up" Calvin said in a low whisper
"It's like she never existed" Danny told him again
"I said shut up!" Calvin yelled pulling the safety off the gun and as he was about to shoot he feel to the floor and Lindsay was standing over him with a pipe that she found on the floor
"Lindsay get the key" Danny said to her quickly
"Where is it?" She asked anxiously knowing he would wake up
"His pocket" Danny told him and Lindsay flipped Calvin on his back and started searching his right pocket but found nothing then quickly moved to the left pocket and found it just as she pulled out Calvin grabbed her wrist and the key fell from her hand
"Lindsay!" Danny yelled standing up eyeing the gun Calvin had lost when he fell, Lindsay quickly tried to reach for it but Calvin pushed her on to the floor and flipped her over and was now on top of her
"This is a familiar position right?" Calvin questioned as Lindsay winced under his heavy body, what Calvin didn't notice was that Lindsay kicked the key over to Danny who was now working on un-cuffing himself, Lindsay knew she had to keep Calvin's attention on her
"Get off of me!" Lindsay yelled and squirmed
"Na-ah" Calvin said to her holding now both of her wrists down "Hitting me wasn't very nice and I think the perfect punishment for you and Danny would be him watching as I-" he started then felt the chains that were once holding Danny to the pipe now around Calvin's throat, while still choking him Danny dragged him off of Lindsay. Calvin was clearly weakling but didn't let his grip go on the chain around his throat
"Danny" Lindsay said to him Calvin slowly started to close his eyes "You're going to kill him, stop!" she yelled trying to physical remove Danny "You're better then him Danny!" Lindsay yelled and Danny looked at her then back at Calvin and let the chain go, leaving Calvin on the floor coughing gasping for air, Danny then grabbed the gun Calvin had earlier and picked it up and placed it to the back of his head
"I should kill you right now" Danny said to him then Calvin rolled over to eye Danny
"Do it, I've got nothing left" Calvin said to him then Calvin heard the safety of the gun "I wont stop Messer, I wont. You either kill me now or I'll keep hunting you"
"Danny" Lindsay pleaded but he didn't take his eyes off of him then all of the sudden the warehouse doors were busted down and Mac, Stella and a swat team came rushing in
"Danny" Mac said walking over to him "Give me the gun" Mac said but Danny didn't flinch
"Danny" Lindsay said again "It's over now" then Mac slowly took the gun from Danny as the swat team came over and cuffed Calvin.
After a few minutes Lindsay pulled Danny into a hug
"Thank you for saving me" Lindsay said holding on to Danny but he didn't respond, just held her tightly until Mac walked over a few minutes later
"You two alright?" Mac asked
"Yea" Danny said nodding
"Did you find Flack?" Lindsay asked quickly "Is he ok?"
"A miracle" Mac told her with a soft smile "Two threw and threw gun shots, missed arteries and major organs. He lost a lot of blood but he's going to be fine" he said and Lindsay sighed with relief
"You should get checked out" Danny said to Lindsay
"I'm fine" Lindsay argued
"How about you both go and get checked out and will talk about what happened here later" Mac told them "And that's an order, you have a pretty bad bump there Danny"
"It's nothing" Danny told him coolly
"Hospital now" Mac said then walked away
Police Station
Calvin Troy was bought into the police station and most of the officers stopped and stared at him. Not only did he shoot Flack twice, but killed Jake Spencer another cop. And ambushed Danny and Lindsay. Calvin Troy knew he had no friends here.
"Welcome to the rest of your life" Chief Sinclair said walking over to him "Don't worry we wont make this pleasant"
"I wouldn't expect it" Calvin smiled as they led him into an interrogation room
