Choices the third of four in the Shattered Series, (Shattered, Forgiven, Choices, and The After,with)

"Get your asses moving, NOW!" Hank screamed, he had just hung up with dispatch, "Sanchez opened up on Ruzek and Atwater, I don't know their condition"

He was thankful Al had stopped by for a visit, "O will you go get Kim and meet us at Chicago Med?"

"Of course, please call me as soon as you know something" Al stood up, "how did Sanchez know they had eyes on the place?"

"I don't know, but I will find out"

"Haul ass, now!" Javier called to his crew a getaway car already running, they jumped in a sped off, he was certain both men were unconscious.

Adam felt his side, the pain unbearable as he pulled his hand away it was covered in blood, he tried his best to write the plate number of the car that had sped off, only getting a partial.

"Kevin! KEVIN! You okay?" He did his best to lean across the seat, his partner's white shirt now red, "shit Kevin answer me!" He yelled.

He waited a minute or two to make sure it was clear and got out of the car, each move a struggle as the pain tore through his torso, he opened the driver's side door, and checked for a pulse, "thank god" his response when he found it, he heard sirens.

Jay and Antonio tossed the van in park,thankfully they had just been a few blocks away, "Ruzek you look like shit" Jay told him noticing the dusky grey color of Adam's face, the sweat pouring from him.

"It's Kevin, he's been hit in the chest" his voice strained, "I'm hit in the side, I think I'm okay though" he said just before he collapsed in Antonio's arms.

Kim and Annie had just finished the movie, "I have to ask Kim, what has my brother said about Derek?"

"Not much to me, but I'm sure he will be looking into him, just remember he loves you" Kim knew from her own experience that Adam had an over protective streak like nothing she had seen before, "he always has the best of intentions"

"I know, I do" she ate a spoonful of ice cream, "at least our father didn't freak out, I don't think I could handle the both of them, not to mention poor Derek" the more she thought about it the more she like the idea of Derek meeting them, as long as they behaved that was.

Al still hadn't heard from Hank when he arrived at Kim and Adam's house, relieved to see a light on. The last thing he wanted was to wake Kim up with this news, not that he wanted to deliver it under any circumstance.

He slowly walked up the pathway, he gathered himself before he knocked, waited for the door to open.

"Who the hell is that?" Annie asked, she glanced over at Kim who was glued to the couch her face suddenly white, "what?"

"It's never good news" Kim whispered, "I can't answer it"

It clicked with Annie, "Okay, I will get it" she walked slowly to the door, unlocking it surprised when she saw Al.

"Hey Annie, where's Kim?" His hat in his hand, "she's home, right?"

Annie opened the door all the way for him to come in, she pointed to the couch "she's over there"

"Hey Kim, why don't you get dressed" he noticed her in a pair of sweats and what he assumed was one of Adam's shirts, "Annie, can you stay with the kids?"

Annie nodded, "yea, but what's going on Al, is my brother okay?"

"Kim go!" Al ordered one more time, "Annie, something happened where Adam and Kevin were working, Hank's already notified your dad's district, is he  working tonight?"

"Yea, is my brother okay?" Annie noticed Kim hadn't moved from the couch, she went and kneeled in front of her "Kim, go get dressed and go with Al, I'll be okay with the kids"
