"Sarge!"

Jamie stayed still in the driver's seat. But Eddie wasn't having it. She opened up the passenger's side door and got out, stumbling a bit as her feet touched the ground. Officers from inside the precinct came out and approached Jamie and Eddie's truck. A couple of them rushed to Eddie's side and had her sit down on the curb of the sidewalk.

"Stay seated Janko. Wait for the EMT's."

Eddie pleaded with one of the officers.

"Please Gibson! That's my daughter in there! I have to get her out!"

Gibson shook his head and gently pushed on her shoulder to keep her seated on the curb.

"The EMT's will get her out. Try not to move."

Eddie's sole attention was on Megan who was still screaming in the truck. Sirens began to sound farther up the street and Eddie could see a couple of buses approaching. She looked down at her hands and found they had shards of glass in them. She took a breath to try and stay calm as her hands shook. Both buses pulled up promptly and two sets of EMT's popped out the back of each one, making four in total. One set made their way towards Eddie. One leaned down to her level on the curb.

"We're going to check you out ok? What happened?"

Eddie kept looking down at her hands still covered in glass.

"A barrage of bullets went through our truck windows."

The EMT to the left carefully examined Eddie, frowning at how much glass was all over her. Her attention however was still on Megan. Another bus had arrived and rushed towards their truck. Her attention on her but also Jamie. The second set of EMT's were carefully pulling Jamie out of the truck. Eddie called out to him.

"Jamie!"

Jamie too was covered in glass and there was a swarm of cops surrounding the truck and blocks around the 2-9. He tried to reassure her.

"I'm ok Ed. The other EMT's are getting Megan out right now."

The EMT's tending to her were carefully as they placed her onto the stretcher. She did her best to see the third set of EMT's placing Megan's car seat onto the stretcher and getting her onto the bus. She didn't look like she had a scratch on her.

Eddie sighed and looked at both Jamie and Megan. Everyone was ok. Megan didn't have a scratch on her, and her and Jamie only had superficial wounds. They had just been cleared to go home. While they were being checked out, two officers were posted outside each room. More were in the waiting room. Eddie held Megan in her arms. Nicky had gone to their apartment and grabbed some fresh clothes for the couple and something for Megan. Megan was fussy in Eddie's arms; she knew that she was getting hungry. Her tiny arm had snaked out of the blanket that was wrapped around her and she was sucking on her fist. Frank approached the couple.

"Ok, everyone ready to go? We've got a detail waiting for you at the back entrance."

Eddie looked up at Frank.

"Megan's getting hungry dad. I'm going to feed her real quick and then we can go."

Frank nodded his head and his detail kept watch around him as he took a seat in the chairs. Jamie followed Eddie into a quiet and private room so that she could nurse Megan. Eddie had a seat in a rocking chair and got herself situated, watching Megan nurse for a few minutes. At the same time, she aired out her fears to Jamie.

"I'm trying to wrack my brain about who would try and do this to us. Do you have any theories bub?"

Jamie shook his head in thought and ran a hand over the top of Megan's tiny head.

"Get back to me on that Ed. I may have to think about it for a bit."

Eddie nodded and watched as Jamie placed a kiss to the top of Megan's head.

"I just want to know who did this to us so we can catch them. I don't want to have to constantly look over my shoulder fearing someone is trying to off us at a moment."

Jamie swallowed his fear and nodded. It was another twenty minutes before Megan was done nursing and they were on their way. At the back entrance a detail was waiting outside an escort vehicle. Frank said nothing as he stepped into the back of his own car with his personal detail. Opening the back door on the right side of the car, Jamie found that there was a car seat anchored and buckled correctly into the middle seat.

He took Megan from Eddie and placed her inside the car seat and buckled her in. Then he climbed in next to her and one of the men for their detail shut his door. Eddie climbed int behind the driver's seat with the help of the same man who shut Jamie's door.

"Here. Let me help you into the car Officer Janko. There you go. Buckle up."

The whole drive, Jamie kept looking out the window. Megan and Eddie had fallen asleep. It wasn't until they got to his dad's house in Bay Ridge that he asked his question as he got out of the car.

"You brought us here?"

The man nodded his head.

"Yes Sargeant Reagan. We were given strict orders from the commissioner himself to bring your family here."

Jamie nodded once more and unhooked Megan's car seat from the base carefully getting her out of the car. The man now only known as 'Jones' helped Eddie out of the other side. Once inside the house, a patrol officer looked around with his partner. He looked to Frank and nodded.

"House is secure commissioner. My partner and I will be patrolling the block all night."

Frank nodded and watched as the two patrol officers exited the house. Locking the front door Frank ushered his youngest and his brand-new family into the sunroom.

"I brought you here, because the two of you are on house arrest. Just until we figure out who was following you and ordered a hit on either you Jamie, or you Eddie. Or possible both of you. You're here until further notice."

The couple and their newborn baby girl were at least in a safe place.
