Voight sat in the waiting room holding a cup of coffee in his hands, it's only been a half hour since Jordan was taken to surgery. He prayed that she would make it he was still mourning the loss of Justin, it's been only a few months since he passed. He and Jordan were still tore up about it but they hid it from everyone. Where did the day go wrong? It started out like a normal day.
*Earlier that day*
Voight was in the kitchen making a pot of coffee just when coming down the stairs was Jordan, she had just turned 15 a few weeks ago. Jordan was Hank's pride and joy, she has always been daddy's little girl from the moment she was born.
"Morning dad". Jordan said.
"Morning sweetheart". He relied.
"Dad could I borrow like $5 bucks for lunch".
"Sure".
He then pulled his wallet out and gave her the five dollar bill, the coffee pot then beeped so Voight took two coffee cups and poured the hot liquid in the two cups.
"So what's the plan today?" He asked as he sipped his coffee.
"I got basketball practice after school then I was gonna come to the district if that was ok".
"That's fine with me".
The teen then quickly grabbed an apple as she finished her coffee, she quickly wiped her mouth of the little bit of the liquid from her lip she then kissed her father's cheek and he returned it with a kiss to her head.
"I love you dad".
"I love you too kiddo, have a good day".
She then ran out of the house just as he finished his coffee.
*Reality*
Voight hopes those weren't the last words they said to each other.
Meanwhile
Jay and Erin were driving to the fire station in silence, Erin was trying hard not to break down she cared for Jordan as if she were a sister to her.
"She'll be ok Erin, this is Jordan were talking about if she's anything like Voight she's a fighter". Jay said.
"Who would do this? Jordan's a good kid, never got in any trouble, a straight A student, basketball player". She replied.
"I can probably guess that the suspect list is gonna be long, it could be anyone who we put away, anyone who Voight put away".
"He's gonna get whoever did this".
"I wouldn't doubt that for a minute".
After a couple of minutes they have finally arrived to the fire station just as everyone was outside doing drills. Casey had seen the SUV pull up just as everyone else did, the two partners had gotten out of the car and was approaching the unit.
"Hey everything ok? How's Jordan?" Severide asked.
"She's still in surgery". Erin answered.
"We need to talk to Brett and Borelli". Jay said coming in.
"They're doing inventory but I'll get them". Matt said.
"Thanks Matt".
When he had left to get the two paramedics everyone had stayed quiet till Otis spoke up.
"Do you know what happened?" Otis asked.
"All we know is that Jordan was shot in the abdomen, she lost some blood". Erin answered.
"Any suspects?" Gabby asked.
"That could be a very long list".
"We'll be there when the shift is over". Severide said.
"I think Hank would appreciate that".
Just then Casey had approached with the paramedics.
"Hey what's up". Borelli says.
"We just have a quick question then we'll be on our way". Jay said.
"Do you remember where exactly you picked Jordan up?" Erin asked.
"She was found in an ally like a couple blocks from the district". Brett answered.
"Were there any witnesses?"
"No whoever made the call was gone before we got there".
Jay's phone then rang so he excused himself from the group so Erin spoke up again.
"Thanks guys we'll keep you all updated if anything changes".
The two partners then left and Jay hung up after a few minutes.
"Anything new?" Erin asked, as she started the car.
"Mouse tracked Jordan's phone and she was a couple blocks from the district".
"Did he say if she went anywhere else when she left for school?"
"She stopped at a convenience store, he sent the address".
The two headed to the convenience store.
Chicago Med
After what seemed like hours Dr. Rhodes had finished the surgery for Jordan and she was being moved to a room, he then went to see Voight who was still in the waiting room on his second cup of coffee.
"Hank". Dr. Rhodes says.
The older man had gotten up with he saw his daughter's doctor.
"How is she?" Voight asked.
"We were able to remove the bullet, it didn't hit no arteries or organs. You should also know that when we were preparing her for surgery, we noticed fresh bruising on stomach. I believe she was kicked with force before she was shot".
"Is she gonna be ok?"
"She'll make a full recovery, she's in a room now".
"When can i see her?"
"Follow me".
The two then walked out of the waiting room and got on the elevator going to the second floor, when they got off they walked for another minute till they reached Jordan's room.
"Here's her room".
"Thanks doc".
"No problem I'll be back to check on her later".
The two shake hands Voight went into sit by his daughter's bed, he took her hand into his he used his other hand to brush her hair back some. Jordan's face looked pale, she had breathing tubes in her nose, he kissed her head.
"I will get whoever did this to you and I'll make them pay". He whispered.
Meanwhile
The rest of the team was back at the office setting up for the case.
"So what do we got so far". Antonio says.
"Jordan was walking from school to here she stopped at a convenience store along the way". Ruzek said.
"Mouse can you find out anything else?" Atwater asked.
"I couldn't find anything else, she doesn't have no other movements. No incoming or outgoing calls, she sent two text but that's pretty much". The tech answered.
"Who were they too?" Olinsky asked.
"One to Voight and the other to someone named Derek".
"Could be a boyfriend maybe". Antonio said.
"Can you trace the number of Derek?" Ruzek asked.
"One second and….he's still at the high school". Mouse said.
"Atwater with me we're gonna go talk to Derek". Antonio said.
"Alright". He said.
The two then leave just as Onlinsky's cell phone rings.
-Olinsky. The older man answers.
-She's awake. Voight said.
-Alright we're on the way.
He then hung up the phone and the other two people looked at him.
"Was that Voight?" Ruzek asked.
"Yeah, Jordan's awake".
Meanwhile
Jay and Erin had arrived to the store that Jordan was at earlier today they entered to see the store owner behind the counter watching tv.
"Can I help you?" The store owner asked.
"Yeah, Chicago PD was this girl in here earlier?" Erin asked showing Jordan's picture.
"Yeah I remember her, she comes in maybe once or twice a week. Real good kid, is she ok?"
"She was shot shortly after she left here". Jay answered.
"Oh my god".
"Was anyone following her? Did she look upset? Anything you can tell us". Erin said.
"I didn't see anyone else besides her it was a slow day. Just before she came in she was on her phone it looked like she was texting someone".
Jay looked around and saw the security cameras inside the store and out. "Does your cameras work by any chance?"
"Yeah I can get you the tapes you need one second".
The store owner then went to get the tapes just as Erin's phone rang.
-Yeah. She answered.
-Jordan's awake. Olinsky informed her.
-Alright when we're finished here we'll be on the way.
She hung up just as Jay looked at her. "Everything alright?"
"Jordan's awake".
The store owner then came back with the tapes from the cameras. "Here you are".
"Thanks". Jay said.
The two partners then left heading for Chicago Med.
Chicago Med
Voight was sitting in the chair that was still by his daughter's bed, he was starting to doze off when he heard a light groan coming from his daughter.
"Jordan? Jordan can you hear me?" Voight asked his daughter.
Jordan's eyes began to flutter open and when she blindly opened them she saw bright lights so she blinked a couple of times till her vision cleared, when she tried to move pain shot through her entire body as she cried out. She then slowly moved her head to see her father by her side.
"D-daddy?" Jordan asked, her voice was low and cracking.
"It's me sweetheart, you're in the hospital. Do you remember what happened?" His voice was soft.
"I was walking to the district, I stopped at the store next thing I know I'm being dragged to an ally and somebody started kicking me hard after that I'm on the ground holding my stomach. The pain kept getting worse I was in and out of it for a while till everything was black".
"Jo you were shot today, did you see who did it?"
"They were wearing a hood and a mask, I think he said something".
"What was it?"
"I think he said something about you paying for what you did then I was out of it". She then felt her lower lip tremble and tears burning in her eyes. "I'm sorry daddy I tried to fight them off but I couldn't they were too strong".
Jordan then held her arms out wanting to be held by her father who carefully brought her into his arms. "Hey you have nothing to be sorry for you hear me. You weren't the cause of this Jo".
"When can we go home? I don't like hospitals very much".
"Probably in about a day or so".
The young teen held onto her father as she gripped some of his shirt. "Don't leave me daddy".
He kissed the top of her head resting his cheek on her head. "Never".
