Chief Casey Season 1: Chicago's Newest Chief (Dawsey)

Chapter 149

Matt's POV: After rushing out onto the apparatus floor, I was confused as to what was happening considering I didn't see anybody out here. That was until I took a closer look and saw Lee Henry under a bunch of equipment and air tanks. "Stella, Noah. Open ambo and get ready to check him out. Hermann stand back! Severide, with me." Severide then walked with me and we went tog et the air tanks and equipment off of Lee Henry. Meanwhile, Hermann just watched in horror. Picking up everything on top of him, I went to check him out. "Stella, get me tape and gauze. Get ready for transport. We have a head wound!"

Stella agreed and then walked over to us with the first aid supplies. Getting everything off of him, I then went to move him out and looked at him. "Lee Henry, you okay?" Lee Henry was out cold and I went to check his pulse. "We have a pulse. Hermann, get in the ambo and call Cindy. Noah and Stella, get my the backboard. Gallo, get me my radio." They all nodded and agreed as they did what I told them to do. Getting the backboard close to me, me and Severide then went to put him on. "Wrap his head and then bring him to med." I then got up and let them work when I saw Gallo rush out with my radio.

Grabbing it, along with my keys...I went to radio to Chicago Med. "61 to Med." I then waited for their response. "Go ahead 61." I then when to respond. "This is chief Casey. Accident at firehouse. Candidate's name is Lee Henry Hermann. Unconscious after falling on apparatus floor. Collapsed under equipment and air tanks. Father on route." I then went to watch as Stella and Noah got into the ambulance with him. "God Lee Henry, what were you thinking?" Hermann then went to grab his hand and I stared at him. "Get Cindy there. Let us know whatever you need understood?" Hermann nodded. "You coming?"

I then bit my lip and sighed. "Let me talk to Gabby. I promise, I will get there eventually. Just get to med guys! Don't forget to call Cindy on route." He agreed and nodded as I walked into the firehouse once the ambo left. I then looked at everybody and spoke. "Everybody, in the trucks. We are headed to Med to support Hermann. Gabby, we'll take the Tesla with the kids so you can drive back if we get a call. I know you want to be there." Gabby nodded as she walked over to me and nodded. "You okay?" I nodded. "Yeah. Firehouse 51, go ahead...we will meet you there!"

Everybody nodded and agreed with me once again as they left to go to the hospital. Meanwhile, I looked at Gabby and stepped close to her. "Can you drive? I need to figure out what I am going to say to Cindy. She is going to be yelling at me." Gabby just looked at me and nodded. "Just tell her that he left your side against your orders and explored the firehouse. Tanks fell on him because he wasn't being careful. That's the truth and it's what happened. No worries Matt." I nodded and agreed with her before going to kiss her softly. "Let's get the kids and then you can drive the Tesla to the hospital. Meanwhile, I am taking my Chief's truck just in case."

Gabby nodded and agreed with me. Walking towards my office, I went to grab the babies' coats before helping Gabby put them on. Grabbing the baby bag for her, I put it over my shoulder and then looked at her. "Do you have any bottles made and where are they?" Gabby then looked at me and thought about it. "I have some in the fridge." I agreed and nodded before looking at her. "Take Ella. I will be right out with Wally. Can you drive the car through the bay? That way, I can get right in my car once he's in." Gabby nodded and agreed before rushing out. Meanwhile, I walked to my desk and grabbed my jacket. Once that was done, I went to grab Wally to go.

Rushing out to the apparatus floor, I saw Gabby pull in quite quickly. "That was fast." Gabby nodded. "I ran to the car right when you said that." I agreed and then went to put Wally in his car seat. "Let me go out first so that you can rush behind me okay?" Gabby nodded and agreed as I went to close Wally's door. I then walked around and saw she had her window open. Giving her a quick kiss, I smiled. "No autopilot this time. Keep it in control because we are dealing with fast stuff okay?" She nodded and smiled as I went to get in my truck. Pulling ahead of her, I went to turn the lights on so we could both rush to the hospital together. Leaving, I closed the garage doors as we made our way to Med together (with me driving the chief's car and her the Tesla).
