it was hardly an easy thing for her to try and do –– to be the person to face these criminals with a direct link to the police barely ended well in television, and knowing what these particular ones for capable of, she was scared. ❝ keep the shirt straight so you can see. ❞ annie repeated instinctively tugging on the ends of the shirt as if to make sure that she was doing it correctly. ❝ how long will i have this? how long do you think this is going to last? ❞

“Don’t make it obvious though?” Kim reassured her. “You’ll be fine. Don’t overthink it.” She smiled. “It could last an hour, maybe 4 hours. I’m not sure.” Kim wasn’t sure how this was going to go or how long Annie was going to be stuck in there for.

“that’s not a bad idea.” erin agreed –– finding someone on patrol that wanted to work their way into intelligence wouldn’t be too hard, but finding the right person? that would be where things would get tricky. “you know the patrol better than i do really, who do you think might be up for a little persuasion?”

“Sometimes I have great ideas.” She smirked. Kim thought about it for a minute. “I actually don’t know them that well. We have like 6 new patrol because people switched out so I’m not sure about the new people. Maybe, we should scout them out?” Kim suggested. 

“hey!” erin protested, her own elbow coming out to nudge the other woman gently as a sign of protest to what had been said. “if i have faith that it’ll work out for anyone, it’s you.” it was true –– kim was the most likely to pull through to the good that was in the world.

Kim shook her head with a smirk. “Okay, fair enough.” She was definitely being a bit much right now and Erin was right she could definitely do this.

              “ THERE ISN’T but only time will tell.” the blonde offered up, nudging her friend slightly as they started their walk towards the bar. The outside and the fresh air was exactly what the both of them needed, they both had bad days but in different ways. Letting out a soft sigh, Maya nudged Kim slightly “Let’s go get a drink, a juicy burger and some good fries. Something that we BOTH NEED.”

Kim nodded at her friend. “That sounds amazing.” She smirked. The cold air was putting things into perspective. For whatever reason Kim loved to step outside into the cold and clear her head. It always helped her. “What place are you thinking?” 

“no way.” erin was loyal, but if she was being totally honest, she would have chased after the kid if she wasn’t certain that their backup wouldn’t already be running after him. “jay and ruzek are on it.” she assured her, looking at kim’s wound. “the ambo is on the way, i’ll come with you to med. i’m not gonna let you go alone.”

“Good.” Kim hated that look from the young kids eyes. The pure horror and she didn’t want something to happen to him. “I’m okay, Erin. Really, just a nice through and through.” Kim looked down at her arm and sighed. She knew it wasn’t that bad but it was definitely bleeding pretty badly.

Hailey looked at her and grinned slightly as they headed down the stairs and straight into the car. Maybe this would be nothing. But they had to see it through either way. Maybe this would be the break in the case they needed. “Alright we gonna play this nice and easy?” She asked glancing over at Kim. “Don’t want to spook them.” 

“I think that’s the best way right now. Then if we need to we call for everyone else and get a warrant. It might not do anything but it’s worth a shot. Just keep an eye on the background of the door when he opens it.” Kim knew that was key. Peak around to see if they could see anything without actually giving themselves away. That was if he even answered the door but if he ran that was even better. Than they could sit and question him.

“ where do you think you’re going? ” @griim​

When Kim heard someone asking where she was going she raised an eyebrow. “I’m going back to the station. My work is done here.” She pointed at the scene. “Why?” She asked the other.

“ do you remember anything at all? ”  @reivontulet​

Kim shook her head at Rory. She had taken a nasty fall at work and her memory was not the best right now. Sarge was forcing her to take a week or two off till she felt better. She felt bad but she couldn’t remember what Rory was talking about. “I’m sorry. I don’t remember anything. This fall is really messing with me. Just tell me again, please?” 

-so much for Subtlety. He leans in closer to point out something on the card. Which also let’s him speak quietly to her.- “Both, depending on the hour. Bring me in. I need a debriefing.”

Kim wasn’t sure how much she trusted him but she was going to at least go along with what he was saying for now. “Interesting. Okay, let’s go.” Kim raised an eyebrow at him. Pulling on her phone she sent a quick text to Adam. 

“we’ll find a good balance.” erin wasn’t a big girlie girl anyway, so if they were getting more in the unit, she’d be picky about it. “maybe we can talk platt out of being a desk sergeant. she’d help us keep the boys in line.” she mused with the hint of a smile on her face, wanting nothing more than to watch trudy put the others in line (more than she already did). “we got this, burgess.”

“I think Platt would kill them.” She laughed. “What about we find someone on patrol and make them our own. Just slowly convince Voight they are great.” Kim nodded. That sounded like a great idea to her. “We definitely got this.”

there was a reassuring look on erin’s face as she looked at the officer, coupled with a proud nod. “we all have moments where we think we’re being ridiculous. that’s why we have friends to talk us in – or out – of it.”

“Maybe, that’s why I keep you around.” She smirked. “Just kidding. There’s more reason than that. Thank you, Erin.” Kim nodded at the other women. “It’ll all work out or it won't, I guess we will see.” She laughed.

             “I’M SURE they’ll see it your way, if not, they might need a little bit of a persuasion.” the blonde spoke, looking up with a small smile as the waiter brought over their dinner, placing their food down on the table before her. Maya reached out to place her arm on the other’s forearm, giving it a soft squeeze “It’ll tide over, in time. And until then, we can just chill and eat and have a beer or two. Or something stronger if WE NEED.”

“I hope so. There’s not much I can do.” She sighed. Kim hated the situation but Voight assured her it would be fine, too. Maya was right; she just needed to wait and let time tell. It would but Kim was being impatient about it. “Okay, you’re right. Let’s have a drink.”

the gunshot rang out, and erin’s body moved on instinct. weapon still clasped in her hands, she moved quickly to kim, catching only a glimpse of the guy as he disappeared through the back. lowering her hands, she reached for her walkie to give the description to those who were sitting as backup. “kim, are you okay?” she asked once the message had been relayed, another one of the unit picking up the chase. “roll an ambulance here, we have an officer hit.” she added to her call. 

Kim looked down at her arm and sighed seeing the blood start to run down in. “I’m okay. It’s just my arm.” She looked at Erin and she wanted her to go after the guy but she knew Erin more than likely wouldn’t leave her. “I’m okay. Go. Go get him. He’s just a kid, Erin.”

at least kim was honest with her. she wasn’t dancing around, pretending to be best buddies with her when that was clearly not on the agenda for the day – and annie could respect that. in fact, she respected kim a lot more than perhaps she’d ever given the other woman credit for. ❝ i get it. i’m not going to flip sides, but i get it. ❞ she paused, taking a steadying breath. ❝ just tell me what you need me to do. ❞

“I’m glad you understand.” Kim had seen it before that some of the CI’s would be completely offended but it was a good start to trusting Annie at least. “Okay, let’s go over your camera one more time.” She smiled at the other. “It’s tucked in here,” she pointed at the button on her shirt, “You need to make sure we can see everything but don’t be too obvious if you sit down and your shirt wrinkles a bit just make sure you pull it down a little bit. Okay?”

Hailey looked towards her and cocked her head slightly. “What do you got?” She asked coming towards her. She took the file when she offered it reading it over quickly. “Let’s go have a talk.” She said as she looked at her smiling slightly as she looked at her. “Can’t hurt to check it out and it might give us another lead.” 

Kim smiled back at her. “I’m already behind you.” Grabbing her phone she shoved it into her pocket and started walking down the stairs. Kim was thankful they finally found something to go on. It might be nothing but it could be something. It was a start at least they were really at a dead end at this point.
