AN: I do not own Law and Order: SVU.
"Call came in." Cragian says as he walks into the room from his office. "Girl raped in Central Park." Olivia gets up and puts on her jacket and Elliot follows.
"How's Kathy?" She asks as they walk out.
"Filed for another divorce." Elliot answers and Olivia stays silent
"Hey, I'm Olivia." Olivia tells the sixteen year old. "What's your name?" The girl looks at Elliot. "El, can you?" Liv turns to Elliot, who walks out. The girl lets out a sigh of relief.
"Alexandra. Preferred Alex." She whispers.
"Well, Alex, what do remember of your attacker?" Olivia pulls out her pad.
"He was my father, or related him in someway." She lowers the sunglasses she is wearing. "He had my eyes." She shows Olivia her eyes.
"Purple?" She asks.
"Yeah." She puts the glasses back on. "Only my father's side has them, everyone wears contacts, but I ran out." She shrugs.
"Right, anything else?" For the next half an hour, Alex gave as much information she could to Olivia, who gave her a hug and promised to bring her contacts. Apparently Alex hates glasses. "Let's go Elliot." Elliot gets up moodily and walks out the door, Liv stares until he is outside and she runs to the car.
"Victim, sixteen year old brunette. Purple eyes, 5'8." Olivia says.
"Her attacker was a middle aged man, 6'2, purple eyes, brunette." Elliot continues. "She was attacked here," he points to a street near Central Park, "raped here," points to a building, "in the basement and dropped off here." He points to the place where a runner found Alex. "She was shopping and went to a café for a coffee before heading home. She left the café around 8pm, we have surveillance cameras to prove that, and rocked up at the park at around midnight. The runner found her at 6am, so that means she was at the park, in the middle of winter, for six hours."
"The rape kit came back with a positive for fluids." Liv reads from a sheet of paper.
"Her father didn't seem concerned about his only daughter being raped." Munch says. "Doesn't really have much concern for her at all. No photos of her, only her mother and her twin brother. There were a couple of her older brother too, who left home when her mother died."
"So the father could have done it." Elliot tapes a picture of Alex on the board.
"Especially because Alex looks a lot like her mother." Munch shows Olivia a picture of Alex's mom.
"Their identical." She says shocked and passes it to Elliot, who tapes it and labels the pictures.
"When can I leave?" Alex asks Olivia, who just passed her some brown coloured contacts. Alex takes them out and puts them in her eyes.
"Soon." Olivia promises. "Did your attacker have anything else unusual? Like a scar, birthmark?"
"A long scar that went all the way down the left side of his face, but it looked fake." She looks outside, where it is snowing. "Olivia?"
"Yes?"
"When you catch this guy, can I kick him?" Olivia smiles.
"I don't think so." Alex huffs.
"Can I at least be able to see my school friends? The nurses won't let anyone in, apart from you."
"I will talk to them. See you later Alex."
"Bye Olivia."
"Had a fake scar on the left side of his face." Olivia says as she walks into the bull pen.
"That's it?" Elliot asks.
"She wants to see her school friends. And that's it." She shrugs.
Fin walks in and looks at the board quickly, before sitting down and attending to his paperwork.
"Um, excuse me?" A boy asks. "Have you seen Alexandra Killian?"
"Yes, we are working her case, why?" Elliot looks up briefly, before answering a call.
"She is my twin, I am Matthew Killian. What case?" He asks, looking confused. Olivia gets up, looking worried.
"Your father didn't tell you?"
"He doesn't tell us anything." He suddenly gets nervous. "What is wrong with my sister? I demand an answer!"
"And you will get one, how about we step outside?" Olivia leads him out. "Now, the news I am about to give you isn't pleasant, so please just take it in, then I can take you to your sister." He nods. "You sister was attacked, raped, beaten, robbed and left to die in Central park early yesterday morning." Matthew looks down.
"Raped?"
"Yes." He looks at Olivia.
"Can I see her?"
Olivia was just about to say that she would take him there, when Elliot popped around the corner. "Liv, we have another one." She gets up.
"You know where your hospital is?" He nods. "Floor seven, room 713." Matthew nods and runs out the door.
"Alex?" Matthew knocks, and sees Alex in bed, reading a book. She puts it down and her smile lights up the room.
"MATT!" She yells.
"Oh my gosh, Allie, your alright." He hugs her.
"Let me guess. HE didn't tell you I was r-a-p-e-d and was in h-o-s-p-i-t-a-l." She spells out the words 'raped' and 'hospital.'
"Yeah." He pulls up a chair. "What have you been doing?"
"Well, I talked to a couple of police people. Then I had to do a r-a-p-e kit. Then I answered more questions. Then I read, slept and ate. And watched the news." She shrugs. "Life isn't that fun here. What about you?"
"Have we dealt with this guy before?" Warner asks as she inspects the body.
"Don't know, why?" Olivia asks.
"This was on her body." She passes Olivia a green post-it note.
"Two down, two to go." She reads aloud. "Alex might know her."
"So, when Oliver came into the room, Mrs. McGraw was so mad because 'Drama is the best thing in the world!'" Alex mimics her Drama teacher. "It's not like we are going to get an award or anything." She mutters.
"Well, you don't have Mr. Green. He is always about how unhealthy I am, I AM FIT AND HEALTHY FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!" He shouts and Alex falls into a fit of laughter.
"You call this healthy?" She pokes his tummy. "If it wobbles, it's fat." He jumps up and down.
"Darn it." Alex smiles.
"You better go." She sighs. "Or Papa will have your head!" He rolls his eyes.
"Fine then, I will come in the morning." He says sadly.
"Come alone, or with people from my school." Alex hugs him.
"Being surrounded by girls while they talk about bras, periods and boys? I think I will pass. See you later." He walks out the door and Olivia comes in with Elliot with some pictures.
"Hello Olivia." Alex greets her, ignoring Elliot.
"Alex, this is my partner Elliot Stabler. We need to ask you something very quickly." Olivia says softly. Alex nods. "Do you know this girl?" She passes her three photos.
(Alex's POV)
At first, when I saw the pictures, I thought it was a joke. Not Louise. Then I saw the looks on Olivia and Elliot's face. This was no joke. I nod, not saying a word. Who did this? Why? Was it my fault?
"How do you know her?" Elliot asks.
"Please close the door." Olivia gets up and quietly shuts the door. "She was my best friend. We have a band of four. I am the main singer, Louise was the drummer. We have a bassist and a guitarist. We all sang during the choruses." I smile sadly. "Louise took drugs, hell, we all did apart from me, I wasn't that stupid. They took coke. She was depressed and she was abused. Verbally. Not many people liked her, she was a grumpy loner. Hid her true emotions and rarely showed anyone she was depressed. But once on that drum kit, she was someone totally different. It was like she was letting all of her anger out of her systems and onto those drums, only in a beat. We would all get together and write songs every two days. The other days we would just go to a kids club down town. It is a place where if you were a member, you got into the back room, a practice and meeting room. After the first month, everyone who worked at this place knew our name. We would do shows and it was the only place we didn't feel………" I take a deep breath, this is really hard, "threatened. I guess that is the word I need."
"We need the names and addresses of the other two people in your band." Elliot says.
"Why?" I ask.
"We found this note." Olivia shows me a green post-it note in an evidence bag.
"Two down, two to go." I read. "So, this…. demon thinks I'm dead?" I sigh. "Look, I only know names, we didn't give addresses. Only names and phone numbers." I think. "Come over tomorrow to this address." I write it down on Olivia's pad. "I am getting out in the morning, they said I could. If you could sign the release papers?" I ask sweetly.
"Alex, we can't do that." Olivia says apologetically.
"Then you don't have a case." I cross my arms.
"I'll do it." Elliot says. If looks could kill, Elliot would be dead and Olivia would be wanted for murder.
"Okay. Give them this at the front door." I give them my membership card. "Be there at four thirty." They nod and get up. "Sign the papers now please, and then I won't be in a rush in the morning. See you tomorrow." They walk out, leaving me to my thoughts. Maybe if we signed the contract we wouldn't be in this mess.
"Her name is Louise, number two of our killers list. We think the following girls may be in danger," Olivia says while taping pictures on the board. "Mary and Jessica. We are going to the kids club they go to everyday."
"FOUND IT!" Elliot yells. "It's called Club SoHo-"
"Hello?" A girl asks. Everyone turns to see her. "Is Alex Killian here? My name is Jessica Lobbie. We go to Club SoHo a lot. I can help you get in."
"Jessica, do you play the bass or guitar?" Elliot asks.
"Bass, why?" She asks. "Is this to do with that pervert guy who keeps trying to get us to sign a contract?" She demands. Olivia looks at Elliot.
"She never told us that." Olivia whispers in Elliot's ear. He nods. "Who was this man Jessica?"
"Jess, call me Jess. I have his card." She passes her one. "He said keep it in case we changed our minds, been stalking us ever since."
"Dean Killian." Olivia reads.
"Yeah, he is some distinct cousin of Alex's on her Dad's side. He has purple eyes. That really freaked me out." Jess shrugs. "Anyway, where's Alex?" Olivia sighs.
"We need to go to Club SoHo tomorrow, you want to come? Alex will be there." She nods. "Met us here at quarter to four and we will give you a lift." She nods and runs out the door. "Now why didn't Alex tell us about Dean?"
"Privacy. She doesn't want him to be a suspect because it will invade her space and she doesn't want anyone to know about her personal life." Huang answers. "Did she tell you she was abused?" He asks.
"No, she did say this club was the only place she didn't feel threatened." Olivia answers.
"The report says she has scars of pervious abuse, possibly from her father." Huang continues. "She doesn't want anyone to think she is different because she is treated like an outcast at home, she doesn't want this to happen outside of her family life."
"How do you know all of this, doc?" Elliot asks, leaning against his desk. "You haven't met her."
"I know someone who…. was treated the same way Alex has been." He responds quietly.
"Elliot?" Olivia says to him. "Mary hasn't been home. School finished at three; it's a thirty minute walk to her house from school." Elliot checks the clock.
"She's been missing for over two hours." He runs out the door and Olivia follows.
"You just can't get enough of me, can you?" I ask when Olivia and Elliot walk into my room again.
"Why didn't you tell us about Dean?" Elliot demands.
"Wasn't important."
"Mary has been missing for over two and a half hours now, if she felt threatened, where would she go?" Olivia asks. I think. HER 12TH BIRTHDAY PARTY!
"There is a park, near our school. She had her 12th birthday party there, just with Jess, Louise, herself and I. She said that was the only other place but school that she felt safe and calm. Then, two years later, we saw Club SoHo and that was another one. Check all three." They nod and start to walk out. "Oh, and Olivia?" She turns. "If you do see her, don't let her see Elliot. Hates men." She nods and they run out. So was Dean involved? I wait ten minutes and then I walk out, ready to start an investigation of my own.
