Has everyone heard already? Chris Meloni is leaving the SVU cast after this season. I know, I'm shocked way beyond words when I got the news. I can't say it was sudden with all the back and forth bumpy ride since a while back, but it was still shocking when the news became final. But after 11 years of playing the same character, I think I'd get bored as well. There's no definate word of Mariska leaving or not, but I really hope not. As good as all the other actors are, Chris and Mariksa are the reason I watch SVU.
Anyway, enough with the sad talk. I was inspired to write something when I heard of Chris' leave. This won't be a complete walk down memory lane, don't worry. :) Here's chapter one.
A toast to Chris Meloni playing Detective Elliot Stabler for 11 great years! (why do i make it sound like he's dying or something...lol) Cheers!
Disclaimer: None of these recognizable characters are mine. If they were, there'd be tons and tons of EO in Meloni's last season!
I don't think Olivia Benson could be without him (Elliot Stabler). She loves him, he's her other half.

It was a slow morning in the precinct. For some unexplainable reason, all the sex offenders and peeping Toms decided to take a break.
But it was of course too good to be true. The serenity was interrupted and blown away by the ball of fury that made its entrance. Elliot Stabler made a straight beeline to the captain's office, not bothering to mask his pique. Instead of taking down the door with one swift kick, Elliot showed what was left of his respect by pushing the door open quite loudly. Everyone else in the precinct knew better than to make even a squeak unless they wanted to see a glimpse of the infamous Stabler lash-out. All they dared was to hold their breath and pray that with his last bit of sanity, Elliot wouldn't strangle the captain to death.
"Are you fucking kidding me, Captain?" Elliot lashed out the second the door was out of his way, "It hasn't been a week and you're already assigning me a new partner? Do you not have any respect for Mclaine?"
Donald Cragen let out a sigh, he knew this would be coming. Elliot Stabler was his best cop but he was also the best definition of being the perfect pain in the ass. Cragen rubbed his throbbing temples, he really hoped Elliot's new partner would tame him a bit.
"Look, Elliot," Cragen started once Elliot stopped lashing out to take a breath, "Mclaine is gone and you have to move on. Mclaine hated it when people stayed in the past and you know it better than anyone."
"With all due respect, Captain, I'm going solo. I don't need a partner. My time is better used catching the scumbags out there than potty-training a fucking rookie straight out of the academy," Elliot protested. He just lost one partner to the dirtbag that decided to shoot his way to freedom when they busted him for molesting the neighbor's 3 year-old son.
"You're getting a new partner whether you like it or not. It's a direct order and I expect you to follow it. Don't make me mark your jacket, Elliot." Cragen threatened. He continued when he saw that Elliot wasn't going to start another pissing match, "And if you were paying more attention, you wouldn't have made a scene in front of her."
Elliot's eyes widened. "Her?!" He spat out, "You gotta be fucking kidding me."
The shadow of a smug smile played on Cragen's face, "Elliot Stabler, meet your new partner, Olivia Benson."
I know this one is short, but I thought this was the point to stop. I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Chinese New Year's coming up (2/14), so Happy Chinese New Year to everyone!
For now!
