Figuring this all out
"I'm going to go get Dr. Charles." Ethan whispered into Natalie's ear. She nodded, Ethan left the room and slid the curtain shut behind him.
"What's going on?" Scarlet asked, a panicked look on her face.
"It's okay. We just need to get a second opinion." Natalie said sweetly.
"Why? I told you what happened?" Scarlet said, alarmed.
"Yes. You did. But not why you tried to kill yourself." Natalie told her, making sure that she was keeping her patient safe.
"I had no choice. It was either be…" She started to say, but choked on tears.
"It's okay, take a deep breath." Natalie said sitting down next to her teenage patient.
"Be tortured, raped, drugged. What would you of chosen Dr. Manning?" Scarlet asked her.
"You rest, okay." Natalie told her, pain shone through her eyes.
"Dr. Charles. She is completely competent. She was trying to die, because living would be worse for her." Natalie said as she stopped him in the hallway.
"I believe you, Natalie, but you know I have to do an evaluation, I'm bound by law." He told her as he walked into Scarlet's hospital room.
"I'm Dr. Charles. Do you mind if I take a seat?" He asked her. She shook her head "no."
"I understand you tried to end your life today?" He asked her.
"Yes. But I don't need you to evaluate me. I just need to die." Scarlet said sadly.
"Scarlet, that's your name, right?" Dr. Charles asked her.
"Yes." She said weakly.
"Please help me understand what happened." He said pulling out his notepad.
"I already talked to Dr. Manning. Can't you just hear it from her?" Scarlet asked him.
"Unfortunately, I need to hear it from you." He told her with a smile.
"I was taken to a party and I knew what was going to happen. So I snuck out of the back door, but they realized I had left and came after me. I found a sharp metal rod and slit my wrists. I sighed in relief as my arms were becoming covered in a thick, crimson liquid. They must of thought I would just bleed out. They went back inside, minutes later I heard screeching tires and the house went dark and silent." She said, holding back more tears.
"You said taken. Were you kidnapped?" He asked her. She gave him a small nod.
"That's all I need. Thank you for talking to me, and I hope things start to get better for you." He said with a smile.
"So?" Natalie asked him as he exited the room.
"You're right. We need to get Chicago PD involved. This is turning out to be just like yesterday's case." Dr. Charles's said as he walked past the nurse's station.
"Go sit with her, I'll call Voight." Ethan said as he went and leaned on the nurses station, pulled out his cellphone and called Voight.
"Voight." Hank said into his phone.
"Sorry to bother you, It's Ethan. We just received a patient matching the pattern of the one we lost yesterday. I could really use an assist." Ethan said into his cellphone.
"Thanks. I'll send someone right over." Voight said then ended the call.
"Awtwater, Burgesses. I need you to go to Chicago Med. They have another patient who follows yesterday's pattern. Find out everything you can and keep you posted." Voight told them.
"On it, Sarge." Atwater said as he and Kim left the Intelligence Unit and took off down the stairs, and ran out to Atwater's car.
"Get in. I'm driving." Kevin said to kim.
"Alright." Kim said as she climbed into the passenger seat, while kevin got in the driver's seat and slid the key into the ignition. The car started right up, and they headed straight over to Chicago Med.
Minutes later, Awtwater and Burgesses, pulled up outside of Chicago Med. They got out and entered the ED.
"She's in Trauma four." Maggie said pointing to the room, where nurses. Ethan and Natalie were in and out of making sure they kept their patient alive.
"How is she?" Kim asked Natalie.
"She's hanging in there. We are giving her a blood transfusion right now, and we were able to stop the bleeding without surgery." Natalie told them.
"That's good, right?" kim asked her.
"This girl has been traumatized and feels that death is the only way out. Please, tread lightly. Natalie said as she let them walk past her.
"Hi Scarlet. My name is Kim. I am a detective with the Chicago Police Department's Intelligence Unit, and this is Detective Awtwater. Would it be okay if we ask you a few questions?" Kim asked her.
"I've already told Dr. Manning and Dr. Charles what happened. Ask them." Scarlet said picking at the tight bandages that were wrapped around her wrists.
"Scarlet. I know you're scared, and that you might not feel like talking to us, but anything you tell us, can help us to find the ones responsible for this." Kim said sitting down next to her.
"Okay. But I will only talk to you." Scarlet told her.
"Kev, can you go wait outside?" Kim asked him.
"No problem." Kevin said as he pulled the curtain and left the room.
"So?" Natalie asked him, when she saw him walk out of the room.
"She agreed to talk, but only to Kim." Kevin told her.
"Well, that's improvement, maybe she could convince her to run a rape kit?" Natalie asked him.
"Kim can be very persuasive. If you both talk to her, together, she might agree." Awtwater told her.
"Good idea. I'll talk to you soon." Natalie said as she gently pulled open the curtain, walked into the room and slid the door shut behind her.
Back at the precinct, Voight, Hailey, and Antonio were digging into all of Jay's old cases.
"I found something!" Adam said as he walked into the room, holding Jay's laptop.
"You found something?" Haillie said raising an eyebrow.
"Well, I.T. did but look." Adam said as he opened the retrieved file and brought it up on a large screen. Voight and Antonio just looked at eachother, fear shining in their eyes.
"Everyone gear up!" Voight snapped.
