A/N: So my last chapter was really, really, REALLY gruesome. So I think in this chapter I'll take it down a notch. And I think in the chapter after this, I'll have this very smart rapist/killer reveal himself. So, onto the story!
Disclaimer: Still not mine
Elliot and Olivia were down in the autopsy room with Melinda, listening to her report.
"So, it seems as though this Jane Doe bled to death. When the perp cut her arm off, he never attempted to stop the bleeding. So she just kept bleeding. The cuts look as though they were made with a sharp object, like a knife. But it may not have been. It could've been anything with a very sharp, yet somewhat thin, blade. Because these cuts are very precise," She held up the arm to the body. "You see how these pieces fit almost perfectly together?" She waited for Liv and El to examine it, "That is what makes me think the blade. Same with the fingers and leg. They all seem to have been cut with the same blade." She paused for a minute to set the arm off to the side. "Now, she also has severe vaginal trauma. She was obviously raped. But, I am not sure with what." She lifted the blanket to let Liv and Elliot look.
"Oh my gosh!" Olivia shouted, her hand flying up to her mouth. Elliot had gone white.
"Yes. It seems as though he took whatever it was he cut her up with and raped her with that. He may have raped her using his penis, but I have not found evidence of that yet. In fact, I have not found any evidence of anything yet. Not a hair or a piece of DNA, or anything!" She laid the blanket back down over the Jane Doe's legs and walked over to her computer. She began to type. "There is good news, though," She said, gesturing for Olivia and Elliot to join her at the computer. She pointed at the screen. "I ran her DNA, just to see if she was in the system, and it turns out she is! A year ago, she was convicted of stealing a bag of groceries from her local Wal-Mart. She pleaded guilty, so she was only sentenced to 8 months, then 160 hours of community service."
"Thanks Mel," Elliot said, getting up and walking up to his desk.
"Well, no we have an identity on the girl, so we can tell her family." Olivia said. "Maybe they'll know something about an enemy or someone that has had a grudge against this girl."
"This is strange though," Elliot said, beginning to pace. "I am beginning to wonder if the same guy killed this poor girl."
"What do you mean?" Olivia asked hesitantly.
"Well, think about it a little bit. Our rapist, so far, has only raped girls around the age of 18. According to this police record, this girl is around twenty five. Normally, he beats them to death. This girl has obviously been cut into little bitty pieces. He normally takes them out in alleys, raping and killing them quickly. But according to Melinda's report, he raped this girl for nearly six hours on end. All other girls have been Jane Does until their families identified them; Melinda checked. Yet this girl just happened to be in the system? It is not right Liv. Either something happened to make him completely change his mind, or we're dealing with a new creep."
Olivia stayed silent for a minute, pondering what Elliot had just said. "You make a good point. But what about the similarities?"
"Like what?"
"Like how we can not find any evidence at all of this man. How all the rapes happen in this general area? It is got to be the same man! Maybe he just changed his ways because beating them wasn't good enough anymore. Maybe he's got some psychopathic traits. It really could be the same man."
"You have a great point, but we should really keep open minds about being two different males."
"And we also have to keep in mind it could be the same guy."
Elliot turned and stared at Olivia; Olivia staring back with a challenge on her face.
"You're right," Elliot sighed, admitting defeat. "It could be. But so far, we have no evidence what so ever. And that is why we have had to close all the other cases without solving them. It is because this guy is too damn smart for us!" Elliot slammed his fist down on his desk, making everything jump and knocking down his picture of Kathy. He picked it up immediately, pausing to stare at his dead daughter. He set it down but continued to stare. "I'll figure out who's been doing this. I swear I will if it is the last thing I do. I will avenge your death Kathy. I promise you." He said all this aloud, never ashamed to be talking to his daughter.
Olivia got up slowly. Elliot had sat down at his desk, his hands covering his face. Olivia put one hand on his shoulder, Elliot stiffening under her grasp. "Are you okay, El?" She asked hesitantly. Elliot just shook his head, not looking up. Olivia stood near him for a minute, her hand still resting on his back. After a moment, Elliot rubbed his face with one hand, running his other through his hair.
"I am okay, Liv," He said, turning and giving his partner a hug. "Thanks."
Fin walked in the room suddenly, a worried look on his face. "Umm guys?" He said hesitantly. "Melinda thinks she may have found something useful." He turned back around and quickly walked out.
Elliot let Olivia go, staring strangely at the door. "I wonder what was up with Fin."
"I do not know," Olivia said. "But if Melinda has something, we need to go get it and catch this guy."
"I found a hair!" Melinda shouted excitedly as soon as they walked in the room. "I am running it through the criminal database now. After that, I am checking the normal one. If this guy exists, we'll know who he is within the next twenty four hours!" Melinda was so excited. And right now, it was all they had. So they'd have to work with it.
"That is great Melinda!" Olivia exclaimed. "But do you know what was up with Fin? He came up to the bullpen to tell us you found something. He seemed like he was sick or something."
"I do not know," Melinda admitted. "I told him I had found a hair and I was running it, and he freaked and ran out. I am not sure what's up with him." The computer dinged then, and Melinda ran to it. She studied the screen for a minute, then rapidly began to type.
"Sup Mel?" Elliot asked.
"It turns out our guy doesn't have a criminal record. So I am running it through the normal database now. It'll take a bit longer, but we should have him pretty soon."
"Awesome," Elliot said. "Call us when you get a hit?"
"You know it," Melinda said, already having turned back to her computers. Elliot and Olivia walked out.
He had been too messy with the last rape; he could feel it. It was resting like a rock in his gut. He could feel that they were getting close. And if they got him… well it wouldn't be good. He did not even have an alibi yet. And if he did not have that in place when they arrested him, then he was screwed and he knew it.
He was outside walking. Where to, he had no clue. But he had to think. He needed to figure out a solution to this problem. He couldn't allow himself to go to jail.
He was contemplating suicide when he saw her. She looked to be about eighteen and she had a beautiful body. She was blonde and super pale. She looked to be super model thin. And although he knew he shouldn't be, he was thinking about raping her. It was dark, no one would see if he just dragged her into a dark alley, knocking her unconscious before she could scream.
He was so tempted to. He even found himself slowly walking towards her. She was on her phone, distracted and walking slowly. He could easily over power her and rape her. Maybe he'd even let her go…
He froze in the middle of the sidewalk. Let her go? He couldn't do that! That's how he'd end up getting caught, thrown in jail for the rest of his life. He couldn't stand that.
He started walking again, trying to get rid of the thoughts that were running through his head. He could either kill himself, which would solve all his problems, he could rape this chick, kill her, which would just get rid of the want. Or he could run away from his problems. He could move to California maybe. Or somewhere else that's far away. They'd never find him again.
He kept walking, not even thinking about where he was going. Before he knew it, he was right behind the girl. Time for a split second decision. He looked around, but didn't see anyone. He reached in front of her, throwing his hand over her mouth to stop her from screaming. He dragged her into an alley to their left. He threw her down, her head hitting the ground, making her dizzy. But it didn't knock her unconscious.
He got on top of her, shoving her hat down her throat. He started to take off her clothes. She began to struggle, trying to get away.
Before he knew what was happening, she had hit him in the head, making him dizzy. He wasn't able to see straight and he had no idea what was happening. He couldn't move a muscle. After a few seconds, he started to see flashing lights. Something was all wrong. No one was ever supposed to catch him. He could feel himself being lifted.
He could hear people talking, but their words weren't making sense. Words like, "Stress," "Stroke," "Might not make it." He was confused.
He could feel them moving. "Does anyone have an ID on this guy?" He heard someone ask.
"No. He didn't have anything in his pockets except a condom."
He couldn't make anything out after that.
He woke up in the hospital a few hours later. Elliot and Olivia were standing near his bed. He tried sitting up, only to find himself handcuffed to the bed. He looked up at the two detectives near him.
"Liv? Elliot? What's going on?"
"Odafin Tutuola, you're under arrest for the rapes and murders of seven different girls. Including my daughter, Kathy Stabler." Elliot looked down at Fin, a look of pure anger on his face.
"E-Elliot? What are you talking about?" He had to play innocent.
"Don't try and bullshit your way out of this way Fin. You left a hair on your last victim. You know? The one that you completely disembodied? How could you Tutuola? I thought you were a good man," Elliot was getting closer and closer to fin, like he was about to punch him. Olivia grabbed him, pulling him back.
"Stop it Elliot. He's not worth your anger. Let him go." She glared down at Fin, hatred obvious in her eyes. She pulled at Elliot again, pulling him out of the room.
E/N: Yes, Odafin Tutuola has been the killer the entire time :D But, did he really kill Kathy? Did he really commit all those rapes and murders? Well, yea, I guess he kind of did…I really can't change that now. Well, I guess I could, but then that would defeat the entire purpose of the FanFic so…Well, I guess now you guys know that Fin is the killer. For now. Maybe I'll prove him innocent. I doubt it though…
