Voight stopped the vehicle before the street entrance as the other SUV pulled up beside them with Hank motioning with his hands to kill the lights. Everyone hopped out opening the doors and back sliding clips into their guns gathering their supplies filling the vests and holsters as Ruzek, Halstead and Atwater loaded their rifles. Olinsky opened up his case snapping together his own long range weapon adjusting scope and night camera. Hank snapped the clip in his own gun glancing over at Burgess whom had already loaded hers.
"According to Mouse's calculations the building will be behind the brothel club and bar which means we do this in darkness." Hank clicked his earpiece on. "Go ahead." Everyone else linked in theirs as Kim slid her own over her ear.
"Heavy security from what I'm seeing on the bird's eye of their building cameras. I've temporarily hacked into their system so either they aren't that good..."
"Or its a trap." Dawson finished for their tech genius.
"Guns on the left side and front entrance. From what I'm seeing on the satellite cam you have over two dozen patrolling the gates. This place is like a miniature mansion with alot of fire power. Be careful. Bring her home." Hank nodded.
"What do we have for roof access?"
"Two buildings across from you have no movement and it looks like no cameras. They must not worry about sniper attacks or surveillance." Olinsky gazed around the street then poked his head around the corner eyeing the two patrolling men holding semi autos. Turning back to the squad he sighed.
"They don't appear to have armor but either way it may be kill shots we are gonna have to execute Voight." Hank sighed cracking his knuckles looking at his team.
"Silent, swift, clean." They all nodded. "Burgess you are with me...Atwater and Ruzek to the right...Halstead and Olinsky run the roof. Antonio cover Burgess and I. Mouse..."
"I'll try to keep in their system as long as I can."
"Now or never..." 'I'm coming Erin...' Hank thought as they deployed.
Selyne purred delighted placing her whip back on the hook casually stepping over to her dangling broken captive covered in a mix of sweat and lash marks reddening with time realizing a few had caused the flesh to be broken but uncaring. It was necessary to shred this one's spirit shatter any attempt at resistance and after hours of torture her pet's unconscious hanging body gave enough confirmation of her victory. Hearing a beep on her computer her lips curled into a sinister smile sauntering over tapping on the mouse licking her lips watching certain camera's fade to black and shadows pass by others clicking the mouse three times watching as the noble pack leader slid into the first floor of her building lifting her gaze zooming in at the woman beside him practically salivating with richly dark thoughts. What she could do to that one. Mmmmm the images rolled across her eyes flicking her gaze back to the footage of another oh so familiar woman stepping around the corner to her back entrance clenching her jaw.
"Well well...the stray has returned." No matter, there was nothing any of them could do. Pushing the laptop closed which would easily eradicate any data and files by the move she laughed elated moving back over to her dangling pet sliding a hand up into her hair yanking her head back hearing a weakened whimper moving her head close. "Be a good kitten..."
Selyne purred letting her grip loosen stepping away from her and into the dark corridor hearing approaching footsteps smiling ominously.
Kim slid around another corner glancing into yet another doorway grumbling. This place was a maze, far too many doors to far too many rooms and she wondered if they really were just running right into a rat cage. Burgess held her weapon tightly nodding to Voight whom nodded back and she quickly stepped down another hall seeing his thumbs up with a door half open.
"Stairway." Hank whispered raising his gun slipping in with Kim close behind him. They moved swiftly up the stairs stopping at the top noticing two doors at opposite ends. "This is getting irritating..." Voight growled motioning for Burgess to take left with him taking right. "Eyes on point..."
"Got it." Kim muttered as both stepped through the doors. The minute the door shut behind her there was something about the air that concerned the officer. It was warm, fragrant and with the red lighting dim it brought her caution up ten notches. She steadied herself noticing not as many doors in fact only two but it was the cough in the silence that beckoned her forward swallowing down her nerves noticing the much taller door open just a crack pushing it open with her foot sliding herself in partially gazing around then hearing the cough again and as her head steered to the right her eyes widened gasping. Every rule in the book flew out the window as she ran toward the woman hanging helplessly from the chains lowering her gun putting it in the holster. "Erin..." Kim came around glancing up noticing the woman's eyes still shut her head still down but barely moving. "I'll get you out of these...hang in there...I'll get you free..." Burgess noticed the rope on the post wrapped around a giant metal stake immediately unraveling it hearing the tension in the chains getting a firm grip unraveling the last couple notches pulling it off the stake carefully using it to lower the detective's body gently to the floor. "Erin..." Kim grabbed the knife she had been hanging onto for Voight that belonged to her friend quickly using it to slice the gag from her face swiping a hand over her cheek in disbelief how pale how weak Erin looked. Burgess found the release on the shackles finally freeing her wrists cradling her head. "Erin? Erin...can you hear me?" Kim bit her lip with still no response turning her head for a moment gathering her wits tapping her ear piece. "Guys...I found..." 'CLICK'
Kim's eyes widened slowly turning her head met with her own firearm aimed perfectly at her face looking passed the barrel at the cold empty eyes of the detective feeling her own heart shatter her mind swarm with so many dangerous thoughts rising up in her trembling body. The laughter in the shadows brought Burgess shivering tasting a sweetness on her tongue instinctively licking her lips and the realization clicked in her head. There was drugs in the air. Kim had walked right into what she feared, a trap but never in a million lifetimes did she think her own friend, a fellow officer someone she looked up to...would be aiming her own gun at her. It was there for a moment just a moment and that moment lingered when the woman from the videos slipped into view sliding her lips into that evil intentional grin and as the safety was disengaged with the woman sitting up partially drained but keeping a steady firm grip on the weapon, it was a confirmation that would destroy everyone hell bent on saving the detective...Erin had been broken...
