"She's a sweet girl." Detective Ellis said. "Very smart too"
"When she's out of the hospital she will be put into foster care with strangers. I can't do that to her, not with all that she has been through." Marcy says
"Are you going to take her in?" Ellis asks
"Yes,This girl needs a mother and I love her like she is my own daughter." Marcy says "Joshua would love to have a sister. There is something special about this little girl."
"She is something special. We have a lead in her case. We found where her father lives." Ellis says to her. "I'm on my way now."

Detective Ellis and his partner Detective Brian Vincent ran up the stairs with their guns raised. The building was on the Broncs, a real rough part of the city, The building looked like rat infested dump, They get apartment 4B.
"James Novak, NYPD open up!" yelled Ellis to the door, there was no answer and noise. Ellis looks at Vincent and he gives him the on 3 look. Silently counting to three Ellis foot comes in contact with the door, The door easily gives way with loud cracking noise. Cops spill into the bedroom like ants, checking every corner.
"Clear" Said the officers in the kitchen and the bedroom said.
"You have to see this." came a voice from a room in the back of the apartment.
Ellis and Vincent follow the voice to a closet in the back of the apartment. They see what the officer was looking at. The sight before them sickened them.
In the closet there was a pillow with blood stains on it. The wall looked like someone had there head bashed into it. In one corner there was a doll that was made of a mop and a few scraps of fabric. There was spots that reeked of urine. In another corner there was a plate with a few crumbs left on it. This was Casey's prison. The thing that disturbed everyone the most was a pool of blood on the closet floor. Casey had lost a lot of blood.
"This is one sick man." Vincent says.

Casey had been released from the hospital and was at the precinct with Marcy. Casey wasn't real interested in talking about her father or anything related to that subject. She was more content coloring. Marcy knew not to push Casey she would talk in her own time when she was ready.
"What are you coloring?" Marcy asks.
"Guess." Casey says smiling.
Marcy looks at the picture. She could tell it was a person.
"Is it you?" Marcy guesses.
"No guess again." Casey says.
"Is it Jane?" Marcy guesses again.
"No,guess again," Casey says.
"I give up," Marcy says smiling.
"It's you silly." Casey says giggling.
"I should have known." Marcy says. "How would you like to go see where I work?"
"Okay." Casey says standing up.
Marcy picks Casey up and carries her out to the bullpen where Ellis was looking at a file.
"Where are you two ladies heading off to?" Ellis asks putting down the file.
"I'm taking Casey to see the courthouse." Marcy says.
"Before you go I need to talk to you about something." Ellis says. "Vincent can you watch Casey for a minute?"
"Sure." Vincent says.
Marcy gets down at Casey's level.
"Detective Ellis needs to talk to me for a minute. Do you think you and Detective Vincent can have fun while I'm gone?" Marcy asks the four year old.
Casey nods and looks at Vincent. He gently takes her hand and leads her to his desk.
Ellis and Marcy go into the conference room.
"We went to Casey's father's apartment and looks like he skipped town, This man was a monster." Ellis says showing the her the pictures.
Marcy's stomach turned when she saw the gruesome pictures.
"Find this bastard." Marcy says leaving the room.

2 hours later Casey and Marcy were walking into an empty courtroom. Casey was in awe of the room she was in. Marcy points to the judges chair.
"That big chair up there is where and all the other judge's sit." Marcy tells Casey.
Casey looks up at the big chair.
"Want to give it a try?" Marcy asks.
Casey nods and Marcy picks her up and they sit in the big chair together. Casey felt very tall in the chair. She points at the table where the ADA's sit.
"That's where the lawyers sit." Marcy explains.
"I'm going work here someday." Casey says proudly. Marcy smiles.
Present time.
"We never caught the bastard who did that to her." Ellis said. "Maybe you can."
Elliot and Olivia leave Ellis' house. The go back to the precinct.
Page Break
Casey was sitting at Olivia's desk waiting for her to return. She had been out of the hospital a few days and could not bear sitting at home. Boredom was eating her alive there. While waiting for Olivia's return Munch and Finn were bringing in another suspect for another case. While dragging him through the precinct Casey gets a glimpse of him which triggers some sort of pyscotic episode.
Casey begins to scream and trying to run. Cragen alerted by the scream manages to grab her in a bear hug while she tried to escape. She kicked and punched. Screaming begging for him to let go. Cragen manages to get her into his office then he lets go of her. Now instead of fear it's anger. She starts breaking things on his desk and pounding on the wall and throwing things.
Cragen gets his cuffs out and cuffs her to a pipe by the window. "I'm sorry Casey this is just until you calm down."
Casey still filled with fury starts banging her head into the window. After the fifth hit it cracks. She keeps hitting her head against the window.
"Haung!" Cragen calls across the squad room. After Casey's tenth hit on the window it shatters. Haung although he didn't want to grabs a sedative and puts it in her neck. Casey immediately calms down and drops to the floor. They had never seen Casey in such a rage.
"What do you think caused it?" Cragen asks.
"When she saw the suspect Munch and Finn were dragging in it most of trigger some sort of terrorizing memory that she had subconsciously suppressed." Haung answers.
"Maybe he was her rapist." Cragen suggests.
"That might be the case. But lets not jump to conclusions. It may be something else." Haung says. "Something she's hid from everyone."
I know that ended suddenly. Also I'm sorry if my knowledge of when to use sedatives is wrong. Please bare with me and review
