Jay and I met Erin at the bar things were going good till I noticed a guy with a gun. I grabbed Erin and Jay pulling them to the ground as gun shots when off. Erin when after the shooter while Jay and I helped the bartender who was shot, I grabbed a rag from the counter and held it to her neck as Jay called 911. "Shot to the neck my partners' got her behind the bar." Erin says as she enters with the EMT's. "We got it from here." They tell us and we back away. "We'll get him." Erin tells Jay as he gives her a worried look. The next morning I headed into work. "So you knew the victim?" Voight asks Jay as I enter the bullpen with Dagger. "Maddie Callahan. She worked there." Jay tells him. "No I.D. on the shooter?" Voight asks. "No, patrol's going door to door in the neighborhood looking for witnesses." Erin tells him. "That was the hospital. Your friend's in ICU, but she's alive." Antonio tells Jay. "Thanks." "Hey, it's not your fault." He tells him. "Someone needs to talk to Bembenek." " Oh, Olinsky's already on that." Voight tells Antonio. "A black Arcadia was found abandoned in Englewood. It matches the description of the getaway vehicle, but there's no prints. They torched it." Atwater tells us as he enters. "White male just checked into a South Side clinic about a half hour ago, two bullet wounds." Adam tells us. "All right, Lindsay, Antonio, get on it" Voight orders but as Jay was getting ready to leave he stopped him. "No, no, no, Jay. You and your sister are in protective custody until this dies down." "They shot my friend." Jay tells him. "They nearly kill me, Erin, and Ava." "You got a target on your back. You're not going anywhere till that target's removed. Neither is Ava they might target her because she's your sister."  "So we're under house arrest?" I ask him. "You wanted to see us, Sergeant?" We hear Kim ask. The Halstead's don't leave your sight until I say so. And he stays here at the 21st." Voight tells her. "You got it." Officer Roman says. "They don't have to stay up here to keep an eye on me. You... you got to be kidding me!" Jay yells. "Keep an eye on him." Voight tells them and Jay slams his jacket down. "Detectives, Sergeant Voight is on his way up with the suspect. Um, he asked that on his way to the interview room, you wait in his office for them to pass by." Nadia tells us." Which suspect?" Jay asks. "Uh... Maybe it's better that you don't know, right?" Kim tells him. "Jay, let's just make this easy on all of us." I tell him as I place a hand on his shoulder, and he shoves it off. "Is it the shooter?" He asks. "Let's head in Voight's office, Jay."  First of all, it's Detective. Second of all, let's not me and you get off on the wrong foot." Jay tells Roman. "Oh, this is not going to be good." I groan and Kim looks at me. "I'm all for that. But if you can join me in Voight's office, Detective, that'd be great." Roman tells him and Jay and I enter the office. "That's him, that's..." Jay freaks out as Voight walks by with the shooter. "Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa." Roman says as he, Kim and I all hold him back. "Sarge, give me five minutes. Gimme five minutes!" Jay yells. "Is that what we're going to do, throw? Because you're not walking past me until I get an "all clear." You got that?" Roman tells him. "Ava, Voight had JP make a deal but they knew about you so you'll have to come along." Jay tells me as he enters the lounge. "Fine." I nod. "Are you sure you're alright?" He asks. "Yeah, just having a hard time sleeping is all." I tell him. He shut the door behind him and gave me the same look from when we were kids, the one that said you're not going anywhere. "My childhood as been coming back and it's taking it's tole." I tell him. "Please tell me what happened." He begs. "The accident, remember how dad told you it was a fight between my friend over drug?" I ask him. "Yeah." "It was a lie." I tell him. "What?" He asks. "It was dad." I tell him. "I don't understand." He tells me. "Dad got tired of my attitude one night and beat the crap out of me." I tell him he just looked at me shocked. "Now you know why I don't want anything to do with him. But it's only me he's never put a hand on anyone else and he's the best grandpa to Summer. What did I do?" I ask him. "Nothing, you've never done anything wrong." He hugs me. "Jay, please just don't freak out on dad please there's nothing we could do anyway." I tell him. "Are you sure you ok to go into the field." He asks me. "Yes." I tell him. I was sat in the back of the car, JP was driving while Jay was up front. I pulled the cuffs when JP pulled a gun out of the glove box. "If you shot him I'll brake your ribs." I worn JP. "Shut up!" He yells. I looked at Jay who nodded and sat back down in the seat. When the team was cut off by a train I took a deep breath knowing this was going to take a while. "Give me your phones." JP tells us. I handed my phone over as did Jay. I could take this guy out but it might get other people on the street hurt or worse Jay. "Guns." JP tells and we hand them over as well. "I though you didn't kill cops." Jay tells him. "Yeah. Things change." He tells us. "Don't either of you move." JP tells us as he get out of the car then walking over to our side and opening our door for us to get out. "Stand here. Put these on." JP held out two zip tie cuffs. Then a phone rang and he walked us across the street. "Hey give me the key." He yells at a lady getting stuff out of her car. "I'm in a gold minivan." JP says into the phone. "You really think your going to walk away from this?" I ask him as he pulls me out of the car. "Shut up. He's got my son. You two or him, not even close." JP tells us. Jay suddenly tackled him to the ground and grabbed his gun then pulled him to his feet. "Voight we're at 103rd and central near sag channel. I got a car approaching 500 yard from the north. It's a red mustang. I thing it's Shostak." Jay says into the phone he found. "Stand down! Get out of there!" I can here Voight yell but it was kinda to late for us too. "You're going to act like everything is normal, Like you're in complete control." Jay tells JP. The driver of the mustang looked at us for a second then drove away then Erin and Voight's car sped by us. The others came by to give us a lift to arrest Shostak. "You ok?" Antonio asks me as I step out of the car. "Yeah." I nod.
