Within an hour everyone had cleared out of your apartment and you were alone again. You walk over to the window, looking over the city; that looked particularly grey due to the incoming rain clouds.

You gaze out the window thinking about the way Voight had held your face and the things it made you feel. You are pulled out of your thoughts at the sound of your phone vibrating on the table.

You pick up the phone, not looking at who it was.

"Hello?"

"Hey, it's Jay. y/n if you're feeling up to it, we've got a scene with a body."

"I'm on my way, send me the address." Then you hang up the phone and throw on a different pair of clothes.

You rush down the stairs and out to your car, driving to the address. 5 minutes later you pull up to a chaotic scene.

You get out of the car and make your way over to AL and Adam standing on the other side of the police tape.

Adam notices you right away and begins to debrief you while he hands you a pair of gloves. "So we are thinking that the offender came in through the front door of the house and shot her in the back. In and out."

Then Adam leads you through the house re-enacting the way it went down. He ends in the kitchen once we reach the body.

The victim was a young woman. You kneel down beside her and fold back the sheet covering her body.

You stand back up and walk back outside with Adam. You both meet up with the rest of the team.

Voight tells the unit; "We technically don't have this case anymore, so our hands are tied. But we can find this son of a bitch before Homicide does."

The team breaks up, you and Antonio head back to the district to see if you can track down Croft.

You walk into the district and immediately go upstairs to meet Antonio. You reach the top step and begin to feel short of breath. You rest against the wall and try to calm down.

You think to yourself.

"I hope no one saw that I am not sitting out for the rest of this case."

Antonio comes around the corner, seeing you quickly stand back up and walk over to your desk.

He watches you slide your chair over to his desk and sit down. He then starts; "So the number that you got a text from yesterday, I want to see if we can ping it." You pull your phone out of your back pocket and open it to that same message.

Antonio inputs the number into the system. A few seconds pass, before the computer brings up a picture of Croft and the last cell tower that the phone connected to.

"Thats 3 blocks from here, and the last time his phone was on, not even 20 minutes ago." You say as you feel your heart sink.

You get up from the chair, "I'll call Voight. Lets go." You say while putting the phone to your ear and throwing on your bullet proof vest.

You pull yourself into the passenger seat of Antonio's truck and he quickly drives out of the lot, once hitting the main road, throwing on his lights to speed the area that Croft's phone had pinged.

You both pull up. The area is small, a run down strip mall with only 2 open shops and an abandoned pole barn across the street.

You jump out of the passenger seat and immediately run open the door to one of the shops, while Antonio goes into the shop next door.

You scan the room, there wasn't anyone inside besides the store owner. You meet eyes with the man and nod. You walk out the door, walking across the street.

Without thinking you don't wait for Antonio to follow behind you. While you cross the street and breach the abandoned pole barn.

You open the door and sweep the interior of the barn with your gun.

"CHICAGO P.D." You yell as you turn the corner. You neglect to clear behind the door, and feel someone jump on you from behind.

You quickly fall to the floor, and the attacker flips you over so that they were on top of you. You lock eyes with those familiar eyes.

Croft hit you in the face with a closed fist and pulled back for another punch. But you had the perfect position to strike back. With your free hand, you grab Croft by the throat flipping him under you.

Croft, still resisting, attempts to throw another punch, before he was able to, you cocked back your fist and hit him a few times before you fell.

Croft slowly lost his breath as you heard Antonio burst through the door.

"y/n! Where are you?"

You were trying to call out, but you could only lay there. Antonio finds you laying next to Croft's body, he calls over the radio.

"20-13 officer down and shooter in custody. I need an Ambo at West Seneca and 12th."

He looks over your face, "You okay?" all you can do is nod, still trying to catch your breath.

A few minutes pass and some EMTs come into the barn. One of them tends to you, while the other one helps Croft.

Voight, followed by the rest of the unit, makes their way inside, Jay cuffs Croft and takes him outside.

You were being checked out by the last EMT assuring them that you were okay and didn't need to go to the hospital.

You stand up and start to walk over to Antonio's truck so that you could head back to the district.

"y/n." you hear from behind you. Turning around to meet Voight's eyes.

"Come with me, I need to talk to you." You follow Voight to his car and slide into the passenger seat.

He sits for a second before saying, "You shouldn't have gone in there without backup. You could have died." He looks over at you.

"I know sir. It was a mistake and it won't happen again." You say meeting his eyes.

"Don't give me that line. I'm not mad, I just don't want something to happen to you... again." He then takes your hand in his, intertwining your fingers.

"Let me drive you back to the district." He says while he starts the engine and pulls back into the parking lot.

"Thanks for the ride Voight," you look over at him, "it means a lot to me." you say as you go to get out.

You go stairs to start your paperwork for the case, but you can't focus on your work. You close the file folder, pick it up and walk over to the door of Voight's office.

Before knocking on the door, you take a deep breath.

You lightly knock on the door. Voight looks up and sees you.

"Come in."
