"Pulpo"
Chapter Eleven: One way or Another.
1x13: My Way

*Trigger warning*

Becklean had finished working out, when her phone pinged, it was Erin with a location on a crime scene, she had little to no time to change, she figures Voight would rather her show up than to be late,  she hops on her motorcycle and drives to the address, meeting everyone else there before Voight,

"Nice outfit." Jay jokes as Becklean rolls her eyes, Erin just chuckles handing her gloves and they head upstairs seeing, lots of dope, it looked like someone was running their dealing business from the upstairs part of the house, two women dressed in the same outfits but in dieffeent colors were dead on the floor, Voight and Antonio arrives a few minutes later.

" Moving a lot of dope out of here." Erin says as they look at the scene before them.

Back at the Intelligence Unit garage, everyone was on high alert, the tension was thick along with the silence, everyone hated the idea of getting Pulpo out of prison, of letting him see the light of day, homicide was letting Pulpo out so they could catch Munoz, but it still wasn't a good idea not everything that happened that day, Jules was the best thing that ever walked into that building and she was gone, everyone felt that lost, close to their hearts.

"I know emotions are high. Pulpo and his men cost us one of our own, nearly cost us a family member, but if you got into this profession expecting not to deal with scumbags, you got into the wrong line of work." Voight nods to Jin. "Go ahead." Jin presses the button on the wall and the garage door opens. " Listen... this is us doing our job." Voight steps away from the garage door as the prison van pulls up, two guards open the back and drag Pulpo out by his arms. He steps out of the van with a face covering on and they pull it off.

Pulpo exhales sucking in as much air as he can before smirking. " Antonio." "He looks to Becklean. "Pretty Detective Woman" he smirks as they drag him over to the cage, they handcuff him to the bench for extra measures as Antonio holds up a picture.

" Ah, yes. Gustav Munoz. "Bad, bad, bad person." Ha. It'll be good to get him off the streets."

" Where is he?"

"Ah, business first. I need to make sure my deal is done. After that, I'm at your service." he smiles as the Lieutenant from Violent Crimes pulls up, he gets out of the car.

"I want to see what you're giving him." Antonio says as Lieutenant Belden sighs pulling out the agreement

"Out of solitary, money to his commissary account, extra yard time... "

"It's all right." Voight interrupts him as Erin takes a copy of the agreement.

"Conjugal visits? Has he got a girl on the side?" she says as Voight shrugs.

" Find out. We can use whatever leverage we can get."

" Yeah, okay. I know just the guy. He's a hacker I busted a year ago. He's under house arrest."

" Perfect. Go." Jay says as Becklean just glares at Pulpo. "Take West with you," he says she kisses her teeth,

//

Erin, Jay and Becklean walk down the stairs past the front desk.

"Hey, Lindsay. Somebody stopped by for you today." She turns to Becklean. "Also Some asshat Lawyer is looking for you says his name is Cline."

"Yeah? Well he can eat shit." Becklean mutters, taking the slip from Platt and crumpling it up.

"Who was it?" Erin asks

" Said his name was Charlie. Kind of hot. Smelled like cigarettes and Drakkar. Said he knew you from a long time ago." She hands Erin the paper with the guys' info and she stands there for a bit.

" You coming?" Jay asks as Erin folds up the slip, sticking it in her pocket as the trio leave.

"So who's Charlie" Jay asks as he pounds on the door of this Hacker's house,

" He's a... he's a guy I used to run with."

" Run with or run from?" Jay quipps as Becklean rolls her eyes,

" I got it handled" he pounds on the door again,

"So who's the aashat lawyer?"

"My Ex husband." Becklean mutters as Jay gives her a wide eyed look.

"You were Married?" he asks as she just chews the gum giving him a sly smirk. the door opens revealing a skinny guy, with pale skin,

"What's up, Johnny?" Jay enters the house, "This is Detective's Lindsay and West."

"How's it going?' "Sup" Erin and Becklean say at the same time.

Becklean and Erin step into the house and Johnny closes the door.

" I haven't done anything, Detective."

Moans and grunts were coming from the computer. They look at the computer and see porn on the screen.

" Good lord..." Jay says as Johnny closes the laptop quickly. "I thought you were working with a therapist for that."

" I relapse sometimes."

" He started by hacking into porn sites..." Jay explains as Erin nods and Becklean shrugs.

"Clearly."

"Some people need an outlet." she says simply as Erin smirks as Jay gives her a bewildered but amused look.

"And that became government databases." Jay continues.

" It was just to... to see if I could do it."

" Mm-hmm, yup. We're looking for a guy named Pulpo. His real name is Adres Dias. Do one of your algorithms." Jay types a few keys on the computer pushing Johnny down in the chair by his shoulder. " We're looking for something everyone missed. Go."

" That'd be a violation of the conditions of my parole." He whines as Becklean just smiles at him

" Shh." Erin presses her index finger to her lip, and he looks over at Jay who nods.

"This program I built will cross-reference NSA, FBI, CIA, and DHS databases. Adres "Pulpo" Dias. There are several phones I can link to him. He called this one home on Chicago's south side 144 times earlier this year."

"Right before he got pinched by Intelligence." Erin leans over Johnny's shoulder to read it.

" Get me that address." Jay says

//

Jay, Becklean, and Erin, pull up at the address that Johnny gave them and knock on the door.

A brunette haired woman answers the door. "Lina Ochoa?"

"Yes?"

"Detectives Lindsay, West, and Halstead. We have a couple questions to ask you." Erin says. As she folds her sweater over her body.

"What about?"

" You know someone by the name of Adres Dias, goes by Pulpo?" Becklean asks as she groans.

" Oh, God, don't remind me."

" How do you know him?" Jay asks.

" We met in a club once. I made the mistake of being nice to him."

"We noticed that he called you a lot, like, 144 times." Jay says as she groans again.

"Yeah, 'cause he's crazy. I would've taken out a restraining order against him if I didn't think he'd kill me."

" Have you had any contact with him recently?" Jay continues.

" Hell no. Don't tell me he's out." he asks, panicked almost.

" No. No, we're just checking."

" Good. Let him rot in prison."

" Okay. Thank you for your time." Erin sends her a smile.

" Mama?" A little boy's voice is heard, Lina tries to close the door quickly. " Good luck." she says as Jay stops it with her foot.

" Cute kid." He says with a smile as she kisses her teeth.

//

Back at the precinct Jay goes down to the garage to get Voight and Antonio. The trio walk upstairs and look in the break room seeing Lina and her son,

"This is Pulpo's baby mama and son, Osberto."

"She here 'cause she wants to be here?"

" No. We leaned on her. She's got a failure to appear off a DUI." Erin hands the rap sheet to Antonio.

" Maybe played up possible jail time." Becklean says with a shrug. Voight pats her on the shoulder.

"You watch the kid." He nods to Erin.

" Can you come with me, please, ma'am?" Voight takes Lina and cuffs her taking her down the garage with Antonio.

Antonio walks up the stairs and into the bullpen.

" 8:00 A.M. be suited up and ready to go." He walks over to his desk.

" And we believe Pulpo?" O asks munching on a Slim Jim.

" What is it Jay likes to say? He's the best of a lot of bad options." Antonio takes off his coat putting on of his chair.

"So we're just supposed to take his word for it even after he lied..."

Antonio slams his hands on his desk loudly. "You think I want to be dealing with this prick? Every day I look across the desk and I see a chair where my partner used to sit, and she ain't here because of him." he yells before storming off.

//

The day was long as Becklean walked out of the precinct with heavy sigh, she heads over to her motorcycle deciding, to stop by a few places before heading to the firehouse, it was still pretty early in the evening, she enters the firehouse with a happy smile, waving at Peter, and Slyvie before heading to the kitchen,

"Bexs, What are you doing here?" Herman asks as she places the bags down on the counter she shrugs her leather jacket off, hanging it up on the coat rack before pushing up her sleeves. Everyone was watching her intently, quietly, trying to figure out her next move, she went over to the sink washing her hands. Before pulling an apron off the hook.

"I heard that you guys have a twenty-four hour shift tonight, and figured you needed a nice home cooked meal." she smiles rummaging through the bags, "I am making my famous Chili." she says as everyone cheers. Peter just looks confused.

"I'm guessing Becklean makes the best chili." He quipp as everyone nods.

"She doesn't just make the best Chili, she also makes these tiny little pieces of bread to go with the Chili." Cruz speaks up as Becklean smiles as Peter sending him a wink.

"Okay, the time is 6:15, come hell or Highwater you folks will have yourself some nice piping hot Chili with bread at 8:00 on the dot." she says as a chorus of Yess's are heard around the room, she just chuckles getting to work. She pulls her hair into a nice ponytail,

Starting the process, pops open a glass of wine, pouring a little bit for herself, before getting to work. This firehouse was just like her own, it was the home away from home and sometimes work. She could come here and forget sometimes, get lost in the atmosphere. Gabby decided to play some tunes as Becklean nodded her head to the music swaying her hips back and forth, the bell rings and she doesnt stop working, it was a firehouse after all, everyone leaves quickly and she is left with her wine and her music.

It was an hour when everyone got back, immediately rushing to the kitchen to see the process she made. Kelly didn't even know she was there, he smiles when he sees the sight of her. Walking around the counter, he pulls her into his arms as she laughs.

"Gather around my children." she says jokingly as the firehouse appears in front of her. "Your dinner is complete." she says in a funny accent as everyone cheers. Going to make their plates.

"Uhh Nope, before anyone eats everyone needs to pay their dues to the chef, let's go." Kelly orders. Everyone either hugs or kisses Becklean and she just laughs. Kelly explained how he had to finish up some things in his office so Becklean makes two bowls of Chili and brings them to his office, he simply cheers smiling as she sets it down on the desk infront of him,

"Why would I want dinner? When there is a perfectly good cupcake in front of me?" He teases as Becklean laughs, he places her bowl down scooting his chair out and pulling her into his lap she straddles him arms around his neck,

"I don't think this chair holds two people." she says as he shrugs,

"Technically it's holding one person and I am holding you." she laughs as he runs a thumb over her cheek. "You are so freaking gorgeous," he says as she smiles.

//

Everyone was gearing up early in the morning in the precinct garage, Becklean hated being up in the morning; she wasn't a morning person at all. She yawns as Antonio stands in front of a whiteboard.

"Francisco Heredia. Get a good look at him. Now we obviously want Munoz first before any shots are fired. Getting Heredia in custody is a secondary objective. It's gonna be a big crowd, lots of moving parts, so keep your eyes and ears open."

" All right. Hey, Jin, come here." Voight says as everyone leaves.

The festival was taking place and everyone was in their positions.

"Heredia just arrived."

" Keep your eye on the florist on stage near the statue."

Everything was happening quickly, shots were being fired and both of the guards were killed in a blink of an eye.

" Find Munoz!"

Everyone was searching through the crowd for him, while Becklean, Jay and O were up in the higher parts of the building with sniper riddles.

" Do you have the shot?"

"Negative. He's blocked from this position." O says as Becklean moves to a different window, she watches through the scope waiting for Munoz to get into view.

"I have Munoz."

"Fire." She squeezes the trigger as Munoz falls to the ground dead. Blood spewing from the back of his head, Becklean joins the others downstairs, as the crowd is cleared out and CSU comes into play. Voight was on the phone while everyone else was talking.

"That was a nice shot,"Ruzek fistbumps Becklean"Who knew our girl could shoot like that?" he says as Jay shakes his head at him

"Everyone except for you. Apparently," Erin sasses as Jay laughs.

Voight walks over having just got off the phone."That was Commander Perry. He wants to know why shots had to be fired."

" So much for "nice job."

"The day Perry says that, I will take everyone out for karaoke." Voight mutters.

" Ha. I'd pay to see that."

" What are you gonna sing, boss?" Ruzek asks as Voight walks over the crime scene tape,

" My way."

"You were expecting love shack?" Jay jokes as Ruzek laughs.

" I don't know. "

//

Everyone was upstairs in the precinct wrapping up on the paperwork, as Antonio and Bulden were downstairs with Andres, letting Lina and her son visit with him, Voight pulls Erin into his office, while the others were mingling at their desk,

"So wait? You did what?"

"I hightelled it out of there and jumped a fence but when I jumped my pants got stuck on the top of the fence so there I was hanging–" Gunshots interrupted her story and Becklean grabbed her gun running down the stairs. She arrives first seeing Belden dead on the ground followed by the guards from the prison transport van, then Antonio, lying unconscious on the sidewalk.

Everyone was yelling scanning the street, as Becklean pressed her hand on Antonio's wound.

"Tony Hang on."
