AN- Hey everyone! This is my first SVU fanfic! I'm so excited. This story started this morning when I was in French… and I just had to get it down on paper… or computer I guess I should say. Just so y'all know, this story is AU. Olivia knows that Simon is her brother, but just pretend that Simon didn't know his father. I'm going to apologize ahead of time for any factual errors I make about the show, I was only about 6 when SVU premiered, so I haven't seen a lot of the older seasons. Happy reading!!
Synopsis- The SVU gang is being stumped by a mysterious case of homicides and rapes. There seems to be nothing tying the victims together and the attacker is very skilled, not leaving behind any evidence, until one of his victims survives and gives the SVU team a vital clue. As the mystery begins to unfold, Olivia finds that she is in grave danger. Will she survive it?
Disclaimer- Don't own anything that you've seen on the show. If you did, Elisabeth Hasselbeck would probably hate me too.
Backwards
Olivia Benson walked into the 16th precinct carrying two coffee cups after taking a much needed break from working on a case. She place one cup on her partner Elliot's desk, and sat down across from him. "Have you gotten anything since I've been gone?"
"Just about nothing. No DNA, didn't even leave behind any spermicide. This guy's good. But CSU found a button that didn't belong to Aidan Compton."
"Well, that's a start. I guess I'll go check on Aidan at Mercy."
"Don't bother. He died a couple of hours ago."
"… Damn. Just what I needed right now…" She took a sip of her coffee. This case was an especially strange one. So far there had been 10 murders 11, if you counted the murder of a pregnant woman. Out of the 10 killed, 5 had been raped, which was all the women. Usually an attacker fixates on a certain sex, but this one was killing men and women. The victims also varied in age. The first one, Maggie Anorak was 25 years old, but she was pregnant. The next, a 5-year-old boy named Anthony Todd. The murders also went in order from youngest (if you counted the unborn baby) to oldest, 27 year of Aidan Compton.
There seemed to be no connection between all the crimes, and it was wearing the SVU team down.
Just as Elliot and Olivia were finishing up their conversation, Captain Cragen walked out of his office with a worried look. "We've got another victim." Elliot, Olivia, Munch, and Fin gathered around him.
"Her name is Anna Henchley, 32 years old. It looks like she's going to make it. She's down at Mercy. El, Liv, you two go talk to her. See what you can find out. Munch, Fin, go down to the scene and meet up with CSU. I want you to search every crack and crevice. We need this guy's DNA."
Elliot and Olivia made their way to the Sudan in silence. "El, are you okay? You sure you don't want me to take this one on my own?"
"No, you know I can't do that. I'm okay. This case is just getting to me. I'm… just worried about my Maureen. The rest of the kids I can protect, but Maureen's alone at college. I… I just don't want her to get hurt."
"She'll be okay, El. I just wish we could figure out who's doing this."
"Yeah, me too."
When they got to the hospital, a nurse showed them to where Anna was. They were led to ICU room number 231. Anna was extremely pale and beaten up. But through all the cuts and bruises, the detectives could see that she was a beautiful woman. She had long curly hair, and chocolate brown eyes. She also very petite."
The nurse walked over to the sleeping Anna and lightly touched her shoulder. "Anna, honey, you need to wake up. These detectives want to talk to you."
Anna sat up, her eyes full of tears, but they never actually fell. "Hi Anna, how are you feeling," Olivia tried to be as comforting as possible.
"Pretty crappy. But I guess I'm glad I'm alive."
"Can you describe to me what happened?"
"Yeah, I… I was coming home after work last night at around 10 o'clock. It was pretty dark outside and the damn streetlight outside my apartment was out again. I dropped my keys, so I bent down to get them… and… and someone hit me on the back of the head with something hard. I… don't know what is was though." The tears started to fall.
"You're doing great Anna, do you remember anything else."
"He… he pushed me down on the ground and hit me again, then dragged me into an alley. Then he… he started unbuttoning my jeans… He pulled them off and… unzipped his pants. Then… he… he raped me…" She was silently sobbing now.
"Keep going, Anna. I know this is hard, but we really need it to catch this guy. He's killed 10 people and so far, you're the first to survive."
"I couldn't even fight. I just… laid there and let him do whatever he wanted. When he was leaving, I pretended I was dead, so he wouldn't hit me again. But when he left… he took out a peace of paper and said something. He said…um… 'Simon's next.'"
Olivia wrote down everything that Anna told her on a pad and looked up when she was done. "Do you remember anything else? Like, what the man was wearing, or what he looked like?"
"Well, he was wearing all black… and a mask. I couldn't really see him. I'm sorry."
"No, Anna, you did great. That's the most we've gotten from anyone. Thanks for all your help."
"…You're welcome," the tears were subsiding now, "Hmph… Just like me to end up like my mother."
Olivia looked up. "What did you say?"
"Oh… uh. My mom. She was raped when she was in college. That's why I'm here."
Olivia looked worried and rushed out of the room, Elliot following close behind.
"Liv, you okay?"
"Oh my God."
Okay, so a little teeny bit of a cliffhanger. Not very bad though. I hope y'all like it so far!! It'll get better, I promise! Read and review please!
