Chapter One

All the Players Start Coming Forth

(Miami Crime Lab)

(Day Shift /Break room)

Everybody had arrived a bit earlier than they needed to, but had a feeling that it was for a good reason. They were waiting in the break room; there were no new or old cases as of this moment that they knew of, which made it confusing with the feelings they have. There was only one person missing from the group and that was Calleigh Duquesne. She wasn't late, but they were surprised she wasn't there yet which was very unusual. She was usually the first person there in the last few months and was already making good coffee for the team. About ten minutes later, she walked right past the whole group without looking up from being on a fast track to somewhere, with a small rectangular package under her right arm. She first stopped in a lab that they could see Maxine Valera in and passed off a veil of what looked like blood. After that she went straight to one of the main computer labs, where Dan Cooper was doing something for another team.

"Hey Calleigh, what are you up to?" Ryan Wolfe asked, following in behind her.

"I got this tape, and veil of blood, in my mail this morning," Calleigh answered, opening the package and handing what looked like a CD to Cooper, "Sorry but I need you to look this over right away."

"Um… sure," he answered, switching it with the one already in the computer.

Once the CD was loaded it was dark for a few seconds and then there was a really bright light and it showed you a big open space located somewhere. It wasn't until they head a big bang like a heavy metal door closing and it sounded pretty close to a ship yard or a certain type of warehouse. Though when Cooper quickly enhanced the audio once the rebound sounds ended they could hear water running like waves, along with a few ship horns blowing. A few lights then came on well along the walls light's went off and in the middle of the screen from the set up you could see a girl around twenty years of age or younger; she almost looked to be fifteen or sixteen when you looked closer towards her face. Her hands were chained above her head with a small space between them. From the metal maniacal around each of her wrists you could see blood flowing down her arms and bruises forming around them as well. Her forehead was also covered in bruises with a long cut going from the corner of her right eye following her cheek bone down to the center of her throat. That looked like it had started to worsen when you looked even closer to her body; though you could see with her clothes that she must have a few underneath and they were bleeding as well from the stains showing up.

Picking up her phone Calleigh dialed a number that she hadn't in a very long time, "Hey Sara did you get a package in your mail this morning?" Calleigh asked when Sara picked up on the other side.

"Yah I did, it was for both me and Warrick, Why?" Sara answered hoping that she was wrong with what she was thinking that Calleigh could be calling about.

"What about a blood sample by chance?"

"Yeah, I gave it to Mia, to look over it and she should have an answer pretty soon," Sara answered now knowing that this was really happening, "Wait a minute her she comes now"

"What did she get?"

"She got it tied to a Serenity Tina Wolfe, but what does this have to do with us and could she be a relative of Ryan?"

"Same here, did you get a call from Olivia yet?" Calleigh asked as she looked at a piece of paper just given to her by Valera.

"No, but I'll call you if she does."

They both hanged up at the same time, each looking at their own phones for a while before doing anything else. Calleigh went back to the computer lab that she left as she called Sara and sat down in the chair beside Cooper. Everyone else had stayed there just looking at the screen from where it was paused. Though she didn't touch the computer she just stared at it like the others and looked closely at it in general to see if she could notice anything else. The rest of the team left her alone in there and walked back to the break room to talk quietly about what they had just seen and to see if they could figure anything out themselves.


(New York Crime Lab)

The supervisor of the number one team in the New York crime lab walked down different hallways looking in different labs and offices to find someone. Not having any luck he started to walk back to his own office, so that he could try calling the person he was trying to find. Before he reached it though he spotted Danny Messer in the lab across from it and walked in to ask him.

"Hey Danny… by any chance do you know where Stella is?" Mac Taylor asked, Danny Messer.

"No, she went to the police department, to talk to a fellow cop, she knows," Danny answered, looking at a file in his hand, before looking back up.

"Do you know when she'll be back?"

"Sorry but no, do you have any thing for me on the case we're working on?"


(New York: SVU)

Stella Bonasera and Olivia Benson walked down to where Olivia could only trust one person, to look at a blood sample for her off the books. When they had each gotten their own package they called one another right off the spot. From there they had looked at the contents and explained to one another. One would take something out and explain it and then the other one would explain a different thing they found. Olivia knew that she could trust Stella, but because of it being addressed to the two of them, she could only trust her coroner to look at everything. Malinda Warren knew a little bit about Olivia's past compared to the others that worked with her and would know the importance of not letting anyone know what was going on. Hopefully whatever this was they could finish it before anyone would ask them questions.

"Sorry Stella I trust you, but I can't have this compromised?" Olivia said, walking through a set of doors, with Stella right behind her, "Plus with you already here we can just do it all at once instead of you taking it all the way back to the crime lab.

"That's okay," Stella replied, staying close to Olivia, so she wouldn't get lost.


(Half an hour later)

"This can't be possible can it; she died when she was six?" Stella and Olivia said, at the same time.

"Sorry ladies but she's alive," Milinda answered, after handing a file to the two ladies each.

Olivia fished out her cell phone and called Sara. Not long after they decided that everybody in New York who worked with her and Stella, would leave on the first flight to Las Vegas. After that they both ended the call.


(Miami/ New York Crime Lab and S.V.U Headquarters)

"Everybody you need to pack up your bags, were all going to Las Vegas," Calleigh, Olivia and Stella said walking into their respective parties.
