"What! No, Don your kidding, please tell me that's not true." Olivia cried into the phone. Elliot watched as Olivia's face became pale and he felt her tense, her breathing becoming rapid.
"Whats going on Liv?" He asked. She didn't answer, she looked at the phone then back up at him, slammed the phone shut and threw it across the room. "Olivia. What happened, what did he say?"
Olivia didn't want to speak, she knew that this would kill him, there was nothing she could to do to help. She may as well as stab him in the heart now. Olivia realized that freaking out, and loosing her control would not help anything. She needed to make sure Elliot was kept in check and then she needed to work around the clock to find Maureen. "Elliot, you've got to promise me that your not gonna fly off the handle and do something stupid okay?" she continued when he nodded, but watched as his eyes dimmed, "El, Billford has Maureen."
That was it. Almost instantly loud sobs erupted from him. She wrapped her arms around him crying with him. She spoke slowly after a few minutes, "El, we need to get to the precinct, we can't sit around, we have to find her okay? You gotta trust that we're gonna find her babe."

"This is our top priority, we're not going to sit around and watch this son-of-a-bitch get another one." Cragen said as he addressed the team. Elliot and Olivia had come in not long after finding the news. Elliot was a wreck and Olivia was no better, but they were going to find her at all costs.
"Olivia," Cragen said, "work with computer crimes, see if you can break through this damned internet setup and see if you can get a lock on his location. There can't be too many places where he is keeping these women."
Olivia set to work, Elliot was told to work on talking to close friends and colleagues about Billford.
"Fin, Munch. Go and see if you can any records on where Billford has leased places around the city. Look into all phone records again and see if we missed anything." Cragen told them. Cragen looked over the squad room and felt a sense of dread wash over him, in all his years as a cop he'd never seen anything like this. And he was at a loss with what to do.

What the hell? Maureen woke to intense pain rocketing through her body. She opened her eyes slowly and looked around. No windows, no lights, just black. Except for a red flashing light in the corner of the room. What the hell is that? Where am I? Maureen didn't remember much, she remembered walking out of the store and then black.
A light flipped on above her, and she went to shield her eyes, finding she couldn't do that because her wrists had been tied. "Good morning sleeping beauty." A voice boomed. Maureen looked to the other side of her and saw a tall, lengthy man standing by a door. He had sandy colored hair, he wasn't skinny, but he wasn't muscular either. She looked away and looked around the room that was not brightened. She saw a camera in the corner.
Oh
Dear
God.
He slowly walked towards her. Did she know this man? Maureen didn't think so. She didn't recognize him. As he approached her she started to tremble. "Don't worry honey, I wont hurt you. We're just going to have a little fun." He said as he looked into the camera.
Suddenly, another man walked in the room he didn't walk towards her, or say anything to her. Just watched, he flipped a switch and green light flicked on the camera. Finally, he spoke.
"Okay everyone, meet Maureen. Subscribe to the website and watch everything you can. Maureen's biggest performance will begin in 39 hours everyone. Watch what you can now, once the clock hits 20 hours you have to pay to watch. Don't forget to vote on how Maureen's end will come" He flipped the switch back down and the green light went off.
Maureen listened to his words and it registered, Billford, the internet rapist. She began sobbing, her dad warned her not to go out alone anymore. Why hadn't she listened? She wasn't stupid, she knew what the men were doing. The red light indicated that the camera was live and recording. The green light, when on, meant that people could hear what was being said throughout the room. "Shut up bitch" was said to her along with a slap to the face from the blonde headed man.
"Jack," the man in the corner spoke, "Have a go with her, but don't hurt her. We need her for later." He flipped the switch back on, the green light blinked.
The sandy haired color man climbed atop her, while the man with brown hair exited the room. Maureen knew what was going to happen. She sent a silent prayer up.
Please God, no.

"The clock reads 39:48:16" Olivia said, "That's not a lot of time Cap. We gotta find her."
"We're running the trace through. I think we might have a lead to where he might be. No guarantees though." David, a computer crimes worker spoke.
"Anyone seen Elliot?" Olivia asked.
"Last I saw him he was up on the roof." Cragen said, "They didn't get anything from talking to anyone."
Olivia headed up to the roof, she felt horrible, she could barley look at the computer screen without wanting to jump off a cliff, she couldn't imagine what Elliot was feeling. "El?"
"Here." It was spoken so quietly Olivia didn't know if maybe she imagined it.
Olivia walked over to him and hugged him to her tightly before speaking, "We have a lead…through a computer trace. Were going to find her. Cragen is setting up a sting right now."
"That's good." Elliot tried to sound positive but he knew Olivia could see right through his façade. She held tighter, seeking comfort herself.

"Shit. Shit. Shit!" He was pretty sure he was going to have a heart attack, "Captain!" Fin yelled. He was observing the computers, making sure that nothing was going on with Maureen. He saw the man that they had identified as Jack Sinclair climbing on Maureen. Maureen's screams echoed through the prescient. Fin hit the volume off, he knew what was coming next.
"David! Get that trace now. We need to go right away." Boomed Cragen as he watched the screen over Fin's shoulder. "Its only been nine hours, what is he doing? He normally doesn't rape them until its been 15!"
They watched in silent horror as Jack took out a knife a cut away the top of Maureen's shirt. Nicking her flesh in the process, they could see Maureen struggling beneath and screaming, fighting for her dignity. Jack undressed himself and slid on top of Maureen, before they could see anything else Fin turned off the screen. They didn't need to see what was going on, they already knew. And it killed them inside.

Dillon had been working with Stan Billford for two years. They'd gotten away with so much until Rachel had gone to the police. Dumb whore, who cares though. Shes dead now anyway, Dillon thought. Dillon had been the computer wizard of the six men. He set up the faulty locations, assuring they'd never be caught. Stan was the mastermind, he caught the girls and decided what to do with them. Jack was the enforcer, he'd rough them up, bring them to the brink of death only to let them live. Then he'd squash their hope. The other three goons were lookout.
They'd been fine, everything going to plan until Detective Benson and her hot-tempered partner had been close to finding them. Dillon had to set up a new system to throw them off. This system was foolproof, or so he thought.
The computer dinged. It showed Dillon everyone who was on the website, and where everybody was. He saw that the detectives had traced one of their locations of filming. They'd had three. Dillon had to inform Stan.
"Stan, they found the Manhattan location through the system. They're getting close. What do we do?" Dillon rushed out.
"What were going to do is set them up. Get Jack and tell him whats going on. Tell him that I don't care how he does it but get rid of all those detectives when they raid the building." Stan said.
As Dillon walked out Stan said one more thing, "Oh and Dillon. Bring Detective Benson to me."
