The next morning we're not on shift, so we head over to the 21st district with Boden, Herrmann, Severide, and Mouch—Mouch being there purely to see his wife.

Sure enough, once we walk through the doors of the precint, Mouch giddily runs over to Trudy who is talking to another cop.

She rolls her eyes at Mouch and yells at the officer, "O'Malley, shut your trap!"

I catch her eye and smile amusedly, while she winks at me.

Chief walks up to her desk and says, "We're here for Intelligence."

"Of course," Trudy mutters, nodding at the doorway of the the locker room. "Here comes Skinny Britches."

I laugh at Trudy and head the doorway where Officer Burgess emerges from. 

She notices us and looks surprised. "Hey guys, you here for the Dawson case?" 

"Hey Kim," Herrmann smiles at her. She smiles and motions to the stairwell leading up to the Intelligence unit. "Let's talk up there."

We follow Kim up the stairs and she scans her palm for us. "After you."

When we get up, we see everybody sitting at their respective desks. Jay notices us first. "Hey, man," He greets Casey and nods at the rest of us.

Voight comes out of his office and flips the crime board around, showing us what they've got until now. A photo of Aimos Dawson, and information on the robbery-homicide. Next to that is written 'Contacts  -Gabriela Dawson -Antonio Dawson'

Adam stands up. "We need you guys to help us get in contact with them," He points at the pictures of Gabby and Antonio. 

"Because they aren't in the US anymore, we're legally not allowed to ask them to help us with th case. Listen, I know you guys are very tense concerning Gabby and Antonio, but if you guys managed to get in contact with them, and convince them to come back..." Voight says, "Things will be a bit easier, and we will have an actual shot at catching Aimos."

I frown, wondering if it really is a good idea. Reuniting with our former lovers? I remember that at one point Casey had even told Gabby that he wasn't going to interfere in my love life after Antonio and I broke up. And now we're together.
How ironic. 

I nod at Voight. "Yes," I whisper determined. "If it can help us find this guy, we can't say no."

Matt looks over at me, shocked. "Are you sure, Sylvie?"

I nod more determined this time. "Yes. He killed a family. We can't let him slip right through our fingers because we have some personal issues. We're first responders; we help others, no matter what the cost."

Severide seems motivated by my short speech and pats me on the back. "I'm in."

Boden and Herrmann agree. "If you're 100% okay with it, than I'm in."

Casey looks over at me doubtfully. He seems to be thinking this through quite thoroughly. I raise my eyebrow at him, mentally begging him to see this logically, not just his emotions clouding his common sense.
He slowly nods his head. "Let's find this scumbag."

Voght shakes hands with Boden. "Go out, get something to eat and come back at 3:00," Voight instructs seriously.

After we finish we leave the 21st, Hailey and Kim decide to invite the girls to Abramo's Pizzeria. Hailey, Kim and I drive there together, meeting Stella, Violet, Nat, and, Sarah Reese at the door.
