Chicago's Girl (K.S.)

"Move Your Goddamned Car "

A few days later. At the Firehouse. 

I walked over to Kelly annoyed "Severide"

He didn't even look at me as he was looking through the locker. 

Me "would you mind moving car? your car is blocking my car "

Severide didn't say anything. 

He just closed the locker and left. 

I scoffed, shaking my head. 

Suddenly the alarm went off "Engine 51, Truck 81."

At the scene. 

Casey "All right, let's break it and go. Mouch. Otis. Primary search on one. Flo, Kidd, with me."

We walked to the cellar entrance of the building and Casey kicked in the door. 

Then we walked inside. 

It was so dark. 

I yelled "Fire department, call out!"

no answer. 

I walked into the backroom and saw fire there. 

Casey " Fire department, call out!"

Hermann and his group walked in and started to spread water. 

I walked over to a body on the ground "We got one!"

Casey "Truck 81 has an adult male, bringing him out the A-side."

Kidd "Is he breathing? "

Casey "I don't know. Let's turn him over."

We turned him over. his hand was missing and his face was burned. 

Outside. 

The ambo took him away. 

My jaw dropped "What the hell happened to him?"

Casey shook his head "Those weren't thermal burns."

--

We walked back inside as the fire was killed. 

Casey "Looks like something exploded in here."

I shook my head " Don't smell any gas."

Hermann "Should we get the monitor just in case?"

Casey shook his head "This wasn't gas. The appliances are all still intact. This looks like the blast point. V-pattern, upward and outward. Curtains caught fire
and then it spread from there. "

Hermann "Guy's hands were missing, which means that he could have been holding whatever exploded."

Casey picked something up from the ground "  Could be a homemade pipe bomb. Yeah, these are charred on the inside. This was the bomb casing."

Hermann walked over to us holding a round little wire "Well, it looks like he tried to put the fire out. This is from the extinguisher. But, uh, where's the canister?"

Casey shook his head "That's not from a fire extinguisher. "

Me "That's from a grenade."

Hermann's eyes widened. 

Outside. 

Casey said into the radio "81 to Main requesting Bomb Squad and police response at 982 North Alfred."

Mouch asked confused "Bomb Squad?"

Casey "A grenade exploded. For all we know, there's more inside. Nobody goes back in."

Mouch nodded "You got it, Captain."
