Elliot sat at his desk. Cragen walked up to him. "Where's Benson?"
"She's using the rest room."
"No, I'm not. What's up?"
"Just gotta call from an Elise May. Her seven year old daughter was abducted from Central Park. Elise said her and her daughter, Josie, go to the park every morning. Elise was sitting on the bench when she noticed a man come up to Josie. Before Elise could get to her, the man grabbed Josie and made a mad dash for his car then he sped away. Mrs. May immediately called the police."
"So what do we know about this guy?" Elliot asked.
"Mrs. May described him as a man, late 30's, early 40's, about 6'4" or 5", brown hair, scruffy beard and a long, pointy nose. She said he was wearing dark clothes and a camel colored jacket."
"Sounds like that guy that kidnapped those two girls in Queens three months ago. What's he doing in Manhattan?" Fin questioned. They had heard about this man from the Queen's S.V.U. They found had no leads in those three months.
"That's not the issue here. The issue is that it means we've got two days to find this girl before she ends up like those other two, raped, beaten, stabbed multiple times and then left for dead in a junk yard." As Elliot heard this, he could feel his temperature rise about 5o. How could someone so this to an innocent child. It made him so angry. He could easily kill the sick man who did this, but he knew that he couldn't do that. "Benson, Stabler I want you on this case. Fin, Munch you take over the Grey case, I want Elliot and Olivia to work full time on this case. Okay, let's move, we've got roughly 47 hours to catch this guy."
Elliot grabbed his coat then put it on. He then grabbed Olivia's coat and handed it to her.
"Thanks, you ready?"
"Yeah, get the file and we'll go visit the mother."
"Got it, let's go." Benson headed out the door with the file and Elliot followed closely behind.
They arrived at the May residence. Elliot rapped on the door. A tall, thin, middle-aged woman answered the door. "Hello, Mrs. May? I'm Detective Stabler and this is my partner Detective Benson. We would like to ask you a few questions. Do you mind if we come in?"
"No, not at all, come in, please."
The detectives entered the home. Right away the detectives noticed how beautiful the home was. "Your home is lovely, Mrs. May." Olivia was in awe of the huge chandelier that huge in the front room.
"Thank you, and please call me Elise. Would you follow me to the living room? It's so much more comfortable there."
The detectives followed through the home. When they reached the living room, the detectives took a seat on a sofa across from Elise.
"Okay Elise," Olivia started, "Can you recount the incident for us? And be sure not to leave out any information, even if it doesn't seem important."
"Well, me and my daughter always go to the park around seven o'clock each morning. I like to watch the sun rise and Josie—"Mrs. May started to get choked up.
"It's okay, take your time." Olivia encouraged.
"I'm sorry. Anyways, Josie always loved to play on the jungle gym. I would sit on the park bench, next to the sand box, and watch her play. I noticed a man approach her. She seemed to be timid towards him and started walking away, which is what I always told her to do when she met someone she didn't know. I got up and started walking towards them, but as soon as I got up. He lunged toward Josie and picked her up. She started yelling for me. I raced towards her. The man pulled out a gun and said if I took one more step, he shoot her. I stopped; I didn't know what else to do. He ran towards his car, it was sitting on the curb, still running. He shoved Josie in the back seat and he must have had the child locks on because I kept hearing her trying to unlock the door. Then he got into the car and drove of." Elise started bawling now. "I just felt so helpless. If I would have just been watching her, this wouldn't have—"
"Elise, it wasn't your fault. Now, I know this is difficult for you but just a few more questions. Do you know what type of car he was driving?"
"Um, an older model Civic, it was red. It had a rust spot on the hood and the license plate was AGT 3547. I knew that would be the only hope for my daughter so I forced my self to memorize it."
"Thank you that is great. We won't be taking up anymore of your time. We'll call you if we find anything." Olivia picked up her notebook and Elliot led the way to the door.
"Please find her detectives." That was the last thing said between the three of them before the detectives left.
"Let's go run that license plate through the system." Elliot said as he got into the driver's seat of the car.
