"What we got?" asked Mac, stepping under the crime scene tape and walking over to the DB.

"Man, early 30's stabbed 3 times in the chest" Flack stated reading the information written on his notepad.

"Any witnesses" Mac asked examining the area surrounding the body.

"We're still trying to trace the 911 caller. It sounded like a young girl according to the operator." Flack said.

They continued talking about the DB and examining the scene when a sound made them jump. They turned round and looked at the closet in the corner where the sound had come from. They looked at each other and both pulled out there guns, holding them in front of them facing the closet. They slowly made there was to the door and flack touched the door knob. He looked at Mac who nodded and stood behind him. He opened the door quickly pointed his gun inside the closet. In there he found a little girl of about 7 years old, holding a pink teddy bear. Blood stained on the side of her arm and cuts on her face. Flack dropped his gun and Mac followed suit.

"I'll call EMS," Flack said and walked off. Mac nodded and turned to the frightened girl in the closet. She held up her hands and began to sign. Over and over again she signed the same word or phrase.

"I wont hurt you" Mac said taking his badge off his belt and handing it to her "I'm a detective." She slowly moved her hand towards the badge and took it in her hand. Examining it closely she then looked back up at Mac and signed something again.

"I don't understand sign language" he said slowly. The girls face dropped and she signed something again.

"Do you want to come out now" he said handing his hand out, "its safe I promise, and then we can go and clean those cuts up." He smiled at her and she accepted his hand and slowly came out of the closet and out of the house. All the time she looked around the rooms and her face just kept on looking sad and lonely. They got outside and went to sit on the wall and wait form EMS.

"Mac, sorry I'm late I only just got your page." Lindsay said walking up to them her case in her hand. "And who are you sweetie?" She asked the girl sitting next to Mac. The girl looked up and signed at Lindsay. "Well, hello Maddie, I'm Lindsay Monroe" she said smiling at her.

"You can speak sign language?" Mac asked looking puzzled at her.

"Erm, yeah my sister is deaf so I can speak it pretty well" Lindsay replied looking at the girl again who now had a huge grin on her face.

'Lindsay Monroe' she signed. 'Did you come from Bozeman Montana?'

'Yes I did' Lindsay signed back looking puzzled at the girl.

'Did you have a baby girl?' she signed again, the smile getting bigger.

Lindsay stood there stunned. No one knew about that apart from her and HIM. 'Yes' she replied.

'Mommy' the girl signed.

"Maddie" Lindsay then said out loud. "OMG, you can't be Maddie, she died, she…" Mac by this point was totally confused.

'You gave me a teddy bear the day I was born.' Maddie signed at her then showed Lindsay the pink bear in her arms. It was old and worn; it had Maddie written in the stomach and a flower underneath.

Lindsay just stood there frozen, staring at the bear and at the girl in front of her, her face showing a range of emotions.

"You were born on 17th June 2000" Lindsay said and the girl nodded. "What's your middle name?"

'Lizzy-Mai' the girl signed back.

Lindsay's face then lit up and she smiled at the girl, tears running down her face. "Maddie" she said and held out her arms.

'Mommy' the girl signed quickly and she ran into Lindsay's arms smiling and crying the same as her mother.

Lindsay picked her up and cradled her in her arms, she hugged her over and over again never wanting to let her go and all the time Lindsay was whispering into her ear, 'I'm sorry, I love you so much' over and over again.

"Lindsay what's going on here?" Mac asked breaking Lindsay out of her trance. She suddenly remembered Mac had witnessed the whole thing and probably had no idea what was going on.

"I…I…err, Mac I don't know what to say or how to explain it." Lindsay said bluntly, Maddie still in her arms, her head nuzzled into the crook of her neck. She wiped her eyes and walked over to her boss.

"Lindsay, its obvious the know this girl, so why don't you go with EMS and her and get her checked out, sleep on it and then both of you come by my office tomorrow and she came make her statement." Mac said smiling at his young colleague and the little girl in her arms.

"Thank you Mac, I'll explain it all tomorrow." She said smiling. "Come on then sweetie, let's go get you cleaned up" She walked off the little girl still in her arms. Maddie looked up and waved at Mac behind her mom's back. And Mac waved back at her smiling.

They got into the back of the ambulance and went to the hospital, in all that time Maddie remained in Lindsay's arms not moving an inch. They got to the hospital and the paramedics took them into a bay to get her stitched and fixed up. She didn't cry at all when they were sorting the gash they had discovered on her arm. It was very deep and required a fair few stitches. They then cleaned up her face and let her go out of the hospital. Then they took a cab back to Lindsay's apartment.

When they got there Lindsay opened the door and walked into it. Maddie stayed back at the door for a moment, but looked up at Lindsay's smiling face and walked on in and sat on the sofa.

"Are you hungry?" Lindsay asked walking into the kitchen.

"Yes Mommy, I am" Maddie replied smiling at her. Lindsay stopped dead in her tracks, looked behind her and at the smiling Maddie.

"You can hear me." Lindsay stated looking shocked, and Maddie nodded her head. "So your not deaf?" Maddie shook her head.

"I have autism, well a special type. I can't talk around new people, or people I don't know." Maddie said.

"Oh," Lindsay said.

Maddie smiled at her "It's not your fault, its not genetic or anything. So can I have something to eat now, please?"

"Cause you can, what do you want?" Lindsay asked walking back into the kitchen, Maddie in toe.

"Erm… have you got any fish fingers?" Maddie asked Lindsay shook her head. "Burgers?" again she shook her head, "What exactly have you got?" She said laughing. Lindsay looked in the fridge and closed it again.

"A lot of take out numbers" she replied laughing.

"How about we have a pizza?" She said holding up the number for the pizza delivery place. Maddie nodded eagerly. "Ok pizza it is. Do you like Hawaiian?" She asked going to the phone.

"Yeah, it's my favourite" Maddie replied. Lindsay laughed and dialed the number, "Mine too" she said smiling, she ordered the pizza and the two went onto the lounge, sat on the sofa and turned on the TV. They sat watching Princess Diaries; Maddie snuggled in her mother's arms, Lindsay stroking her head lovingly. They were just getting to the middle of the film when the door suddenly opened.

"Hey, Montana, hun I'm back and I met the Pizza Guy on the stairs," Danny said walking into the apartment and dropping the keys on the table next to the door. "Lindsay?" Danny asked again walking into the living room looking at her and a little girl who looked a lot like her on the sofa.

"Oh, Hey Danny," Lindsay said stating to get up off the sofa, with a lot of protest from Maddie. "Mad's sweetie, you gotta get up pizza's here." Lindsay said getting up off the sofa, and picking the semi-asleep girl off the sofa.

"Who's she?" Danny asked walking into the kitchen, being closely followed by Lindsay.

"Erm..." Lindsay said walking in after him.
