Her eyes fluttered open. She looked around. She could tell she was in the hospital; she had every machine imaginable set up to her. She looked over and Brian was asleep in the chair. She didn't want to wake him so she closed her eyes. Suddenly she remembered what happened.

*3 days earlier

She closed her door, locked it, and put her groceries down on the counter. She heard a sound, looked up, and saw nothing. She went about putting her groceries. Once again she heard another sound. This time she drew her gun and said "Who's there?"

Swiftly with his gun pointed, Lewis came out of the dark. With a smirk on his face he said "Welcome Home Detective Benson." Lewis ordered her to drop her weapon or he would shoot. She dropped it. She couldn't believe it. Lewis was in her apartment and Cragen had sent her home for 2 days. Brian was on a assignment and wouldn't be back for 2 days. How was anyone going to find her?

Lewis backed her up to a chair he had set out and began to tie her. She knew not to scream because that's exactly what Lewis wanted. She silently pleaded for him not to do this. "BITCH you will do what I say if you want to live!" Lewis screamed. She began to cry. She knew there was no way out of it. She knew any resisting would result in severe punishment but there was no way out of this.

Lewis went into her bedroom to grab something. She knew this was her chance. With both hands that were tied up she tried to reach into her back pocket to grab her phone. The cable was cutting into her skin, but she knew she had to keep going. She felt it slip out of her pocket and into her hands. As she looked back at her phone she attempted to dial 911.

Lewis came out of her bedroom and furiously ran over, he yelled and slapped it away from her. It landed about 5 feet away. She knew she was going to get it. With his gun that he was carrying he slapped her across the face with it. Dazed, she struggled to get her hands free. Her hands began to drip blood from the cable cutting even more into her. Twice more he hit her with the gun and began to kick her. He muttered "Detective you know not to do that now you have to pay. You don't want to end up like the last few do you?"
