"Hey, that Katie girl is here to see you," Munch said.

"Okay." Elliot and Olivia walked in.

Katie turned, her face was tear stained. "Avril isn't a virgin. She, she… her dad raped her mom and I'm guessing he raped Avril too. I'm not sure, but she just avoids the conversation and acts weird when someone does bring up her dad."

"Her dad? Ben?" Olivia asked.

"No, that's her step dad. She just goes by his name. Avril is a prostitute. She said she needed money, wouldn't say why. She got the best job she could."

"So you think it was someone she slept with?" Olivia asked.

"I don't know. Her dad's been trying to get her for years now. She's wanted to get away from her mom too. She's just been acting weird. I think she's been on drugs too."

"Okay. Do you know her dad's name?"

"Daniel McCormick I think."

"I'm Detective Olivia Benson; this is my partner Elliot Stabler. We're investigating the disappearance of your daughter. We need you to answer some questions."

Daniel looked nervous. "What?"

"When was the last time you saw your daughter?"

Daniel frowned. "Haven't seen her in years. Her mom dumped me."

"Have you talked to her since Tuesday the 19th?"

"No. She hates me."

"Why?"

"Personal issues."

"Because you raped her mom? Or because you raped her?"

Daniel frowned again. "I never raped her."

"Katie, Avril's friend, said she thought you did."

"Avril won't even talk to me, or look at me. How could I have raped her if I haven't seen her?"

"Well, maybe you were angry because she wouldn't talk to you so you decided to rape her?"

Daniel made a face and laughed. "I didn't rape her."

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"He can't lie. Anyone that laughs over raping his own daughter belongs in jail," Olivia said angrily.

"So you think he's guilty?"

"Yeah."

"Think it's time we talked to the mom."

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Did Daniel ever rape or threaten Avril?" Elliot asked.

Kathy frowned. "Daniel has nothing to do with this."

"Answer the question."

"He's raped every girl he's ever got his hands on. He's raped Avril before, that's why I left him."

"So you put up with him raping you?" Olivia questioned.

"I didn't want to put Avril through what she's going through."

"And what's that?"

"She's upset about going by her step dad's last name. Being known as his daughter makes her angry."

"Does she remember him raping her?"

"Yes."

"Then why should that bother her?"

"She says that putting up with her step dad is worse than being raped."

"Is there a reason for her to say that?"

"Her dad's just strict."

"Strict? Like unreasonably strict?"

Kathy frowned again. "No, just strict. He has her in bed by midnight, he just has rules."

Elliot and Olivia exchanged a glance.

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"The step dad is strict, but she ended up a prostitute and on drugs. I'm thinking Chris has something to do with that," Olivia said.

"Might be. He did seem nervous."

"Let's go talk to him again."

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"What do you want now?" Chris said rolling his eyes.

"How did Avril end up a prostitute and on drugs?" Elliot asked.

"She said she needed money so I helped her out. I knew she was good."

"At?"

"Sex. She's good at it."

"And how would you know?"

"Paid her big money to sleep with me."

"But you said that she refused."

"She did, until I agreed to pay her."

"How'd she end up on drugs?"

"She told me she needed something to keep her mind off of life, so I gave her some cocaine."

"You're giving a 15 year old girl cocaine?"

"Sure, why not?"

"Someone told us that you said she wouldn't be a virgin much longer. Why did you say that if you knew she was a prostitute?"

"That was before."

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"I say he's hiding something," Olivia said sitting at her desk.

"But what?"

"I think it's between the dad and him."

"Yeah."

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Katie sat silently at her window. She knew she should say something about it, but she couldn't. She had helped them enough. Something inside her told her to call Olivia, but she couldn't. She knew Avril was fine, and she was almost sure who had her. She wasn't sure, but almost. There was only one person Avril acted truly SCARED of.

Sit tight. I'll be writing the next chapter soon. I'm working on a bunch of stories all at once, so it might take a while.
