Partners in Crime; A Jay Halstead Fanfic

An Honest Woman

Yn's POV

"Hey, want a doughnut" I ask Jay and hold out a plate to him. "You read my mind" Jay said and took a doughnut off of the plate. "Hey Yn, can we talk" Nadia asked me. "Sure. What's up" I ask and take a bite of my doughnut. "Some guy from H.Q. called. Voight skipped a com stat meeting. I tried but it went straight to voice mail" Nadia said. "That's weird. I'll try him" I say and dial Voight's number. The line rang for a few seconds, but no one answered. "Maybe he's sick" Nadia said. "He's never sick, and he's never late. Jay, lets go" I say.

Jay and I drove to Voight's house and climbed out of the car. "He had the flu last year" Jay said to me. "No, he didn't. Erin told me that was you" I say. "He gets sick. Everybody gets sick" Jay said. "His car is out front" I say and walk up the front steps. When I got to the porch, I saw that the front door was cracked open. I immediately pulled out my gun, Jay following my lead. "You head straight to the back. I'll check the front" I say. Jay nodded and we walked inside. Right away, I saw that the main room was a mess, and it looked like a struggle had taken place here.

"Yn, come here" Jay called out from the kitchen. I made my way into the kitchen to see a phone smashed on the floor, and the back door hanging open. "Did you check the basement" I ask and nod to the open basement door. "I was waiting for you" Jay said. I nodded and headed into the basement, checking to see if anyone was there, but the room was empty. "Look. Blood" I say and point to the floor. Jay pulled out his phone and dialed a number before holding it up to his ear. "Antonio, take me off speaker" he said.

"Voight had cameras at the front and back doors. At the front door, 7:00 this morning, this girl arrives. 7:30, two unknown offenders enter the back. Now, we can't see if Voight or the girl lets them in. Five minutes later, this girl is seen leaving. One of the male subjects escorts her back inside" Antonio said. "Ten minutes after that, they exit the back with the girl. They're carrying Voight out. He appears to be unconscious" Kevin said. "We've got to put out an all-call message and get a city-wide search going" Jay said.

"No. We don't know what Voight was into. We're going to bring him home safe, but we're doing it ourselves. We keep this in-house. Now, the girl is Olive Morgan. It's a girl Justin dated when he was in town" Al said. "Yeah, I remember her from back in the day. I wouldn't figure her for this" Erin said. "We've got to run her through every database we got, see if her phone is active, get her family, credit cards. She could be connected to these two, whoever they are" Antonio said. "Connected? She could have set it up" Jay said. "For what it's worth, Ruzek doesn't think they're local. So he's trying something else" Kevin said.

A while later, after we got a look at the security cameras, we got something. "All right, the little guy is Ian Marks. LKA came back Denver" Adam said. "I ran his name through the face the nation database. His whole family's nothing but crooks. No match on the partner" Jay said. "The head of this unit's missing four hours already. We need more" Antonio said. "Detective" Nadia said and handed Antonio a piece of papers. "Cell phone towers? That was fast" Antonio said. "I flirted with the girl at U.S. Cellular" Nadia said. "Over the phone" Erin asked. Nadia nodded. "The idiot pinged a local tower. It looks like Marks called his family back in Denver" Antonio said. "He can't be that stupid" Erin said. "If you choose Voight as a target, you can't be that smart" I say. "Ruzek, triangulate those pings and get us a location. I'll get an arrest warrant. Let's go" Al said.

At the house Marks' cell phone call was made from, we found Voight and Olive, both of which were alive. Now, we were continuing our search for Marks and his partner. "Ian Marks has got five known aliases, and warrants out for home invasion in Indiana and Michigan" Erin said. "Two days ago he used an alias to rent a van downstate. I put the plates into NVLS, so hopefully we get a hit" Adam said. "I called in a search, but all we can say about our investigation is confidential matter" I say. "That's what it is" Antonio said. "Yeah, well district south can't authorize a search based on that" I say.

"Still no I.D. on Ian Marks' partner" Antonio asked Kevin. "No. I talked with some C.I.s, some guys who run with robbery crews, but no dice, still working on it" Kevin said. "What the hell does that mean? If you've got nothing, just say you've got nothing" Antonio said. "All right, I got a hit on the van. The dummies drove through a tollbooth. A red-light camera caught it going west just south of 290. We've got to go right now" Jay said. "I'll dispatch state police" Adam said. "No, Voight said we do this ourselves. We'll do a grid search" Antonio said to Nadia. "They've got to be in there someplace. Where's Olinsky?" "They went to look for Olive's friend Josie" Erin said. "All right, Atwater, Ruzek, with me. Get me an I.D. on the big guy" Antonio said to Erin as him, Adam, and Kevin left the district.

The next morning, Voight and Al had talked to Josie, and she gave us the name of the guy who was working with Marks. "No priors on Lukasz Gregorie. We can't even prove this guy had a sandwich in Philly, let alone done a double murder" Jay said. "We've got nothing from the van. It was torched to the rims, no prints, nada" Adam said. "Look, this maniac is on someone's list. I mean, somewhere he jumped a turnstile, ran a red light. Someone bailed him out. I mean, I want every phone, every camera we have on everyone he knows. I want leads. One hour" Voight said.

"I guess I'm going to recheck the pods on Voight's block" I say. "Good luck with that" Adam said and pat my shoulder just as Platt walked upstairs. "There's a guy here to see Voight" she said. "Now's really not a good time" Erin said. "He says his name is Ian Marks" Platt said. Voight talked to Marks, and we got him to go undercover for us. Marks was supposed to meet Gregorie at Northerly Island at 3, so, we all got in our positions and maintained audio and visual contact with Marks.

When Gregorie came, we kept eyes on him, but he kept his eyes on Marks. Marks did not play undercover well though because he kept glancing at all of us. Gregorie seemed to be getting suspicious, and before you know it, he pulled out a gun and shot Marks in the head. He then grabbed Marks' bag and ran outside. We all chased after him, but when we got outside, Gregorie grabbed a woman standing nearby and pressed his gun to her head. However, we took Gregorie down easily, and now, my shift was over.

Back at the district, I knocked on Voight's door. "Shouldn't you be heading out" Voight asked me. "Uh, yeah. I'm about to. I just wanted to say thank you for inviting me into the unit. I don't think I've ever told you how grateful I am to be here" I say. "It was my pleasure Yn. You're one of the best detectives I know. You earned your spot here" Voight said. "Right, well, good night Sarge" I say. "Night Ln" Voight said as I left his office.
