Kim's POV
Adam and I are driving up Fourth Street when we hear shots in the distance. We get out of the car and see a guy turn away from the alleyway. I call in the shots and ask for backup. We enter the alleyway weapons drawn and see someone standing over a body with their hands on the person's chest.
I yell "Chicago PD Freeze" the person sees us and runs away. I decide to peruse the individual while Adam checks on the victim.
Adam's POV
I lean over the victim she has been shot twice in the chest. I put one hand on the wound and put pressure on it. With my other hand I radio in and say "10-4, 10-4 this detective Ruzek of the 21st, Shots fired I repeat shots fired. One victim, we need an ambulance to fourth and Lincoln. My partner is in pursuit of a possible suspect.
I hear back on the radio that back up is on the way and the ambulance is five minutes out.
I look back at the girl and check her pulse. Shit she has none. I start doing CPR.
Kim's POV
I turn the corner and another quick sharp right. I think damn this person is fast. She jumps over the fence and runs another 50 yards. She jumps another fence. I almost catch up I can tell it's a young female. She turns around and sees I am not far behind. She starts to pick up speed she takes a left and then a right. Then she took the wrong turn into a dead end.
I yell, "Get on you knees, Put your hands ups, put your hands behinds your head interlocking your fingers" the young girl obeys. I can tell she has been crying as I put her in the cuffs and head back towards the crime scene. I look at the young girl I have in cuffs she looks no more than 15. I see more tears run down her cheeks so I stop.
I look at her and say, "What happened? Why are you crying?" The young girl looks back at me with sadness in her eyes and says, "She was my best friend, and I didn't do this." I looked at her wanting to believe her and ask, "Then why did you run?" She replies, "I can't tell you I ran for a reason and that was to protect myself." I shake my head and continue to walk her back toward the crime scene.
Adam's POV
I have been doing CPR for the past five minutes and still no pulse. The paramedics arrive and I realize it's Mackey and Brett. I call out over here two shots to the chest no pulse. They come over and take over CPR. They look up and say she's gone. I look down at his young blonde girl, she couldn't be more than fifteen. She looks like she was on her way home from school as she was wearing a uniform, but it had no identifying school marks. I continue to look around and I see her backpack. I grab a set of gloves. I open the bag and see some notebooks, an extra set of clothes and an extra uniform. Then I see it a large wad of cash and a small empty drug baggie. Shit why is it always drugs.
Just then rest of intelligence arrives. I give everyone the rundown of what we saw and what I found. Then Voight asks, "Kim isn't back yet?" I reply "No and I haven't heard from her either." Just then I see Kim turn the corner.
Kim's POV
We arrive at the crime seat and I put the young girl in the back of the squad card. I head back towards the rest of intelligence. Upon my arrival Adam informs me he found a large wad of cash and small empty baggie but no ID. He believes this girl is somehow connected to drugs. Hailey turns to me and asked, "What is the story with her?" I reply, "Well upon arrival when we entered the alleyway she was standing over the body, and we identified ourselves and she ran. When I caught up to her she was crying, I asked her what happened and she said that the victim was her best friend and that she didn't do it. She also said she ran to protect herself."
Jay replies and asks, "Do you think she did?" I reply "Honestly, my gut is telling me no and that she is just scared and was at the wrong place at the wrong time. Maybe one of you can get her to talk more."
Hailey walks away and Jay turns to me and says, "That girl reminds me of someone almost like we have met before, but I don't know why."
Hailey POV
After spending hours of watching other people try and get her to talk, I decided it was my turn. I walk into the interview room and see a young girl holding her knees to chest while she still has handcuffs around her wrist. I decide that maybe the only way I will get her to talk is by becoming friends first. I walk over and ask pointing to the cuffs "Is it okay if I take these off?." She doesn't make any eye contact. I reach towards her and she flinches. I touch her shoulder and say "I know they aren't comfortable and I know you don't want to talk but can I take them off?" The young girl shakes her head yes. I lay the cuffs on the table.
I look at her and ask "Can I get you something to drink or anything?" She shakes her head no. I say, "Why don't you start by telling me your name?"
She doesn't speak or respond instead she keeps staring at the ground. I finally say "You know we are eventually going to figure out who you are right? Your parents are going to soon come looking for you."
She finally speaks, "I don't have any parents." Well, that plan failed. I say, "Well someone out there cares about you and they will come looking for you."
She responds, "You really don't get it, I don't have anyone, no one cares about me. If I tell you who I am I am putting myself in danger. The only person who cared was my best friend and you just found her body. If she wasn't coming to visit me she wouldn't have died." You can tell she regretted saying that part.
I look at her and say, "What do you mean she was coming to visit you? That street was an alley and it's surrounded by bars and grocery stores, there are no apartments or houses."
She looks back at me and says, "Exactly, hopefully now you get it." Then it clicked she lived in that alley. There is something about this girl; I can tell she is trying to protect herself because she doesn't have anyone to protect her.
