Special Victims Unit, Squad room

June 2nd

"Six months we been working on this case," Stabler complained.

"We can't keep going on like this. We need something, a link. This isn't just hurting us, it is hurting Paige too," Fin sighed.

"I can't help it if we have no leads yet...if it was any other precinct they would've called it a cold case already," Stabler said frustrated.

"This is a very emotional case for all of us. We became more involved with this case than any when Paige came into our lives," Casey said trying make things seem somewhat better.

"Damn right she's family," Stabler agreed.

"No other squad would have lasted six weeks on this case because they wouldn't have known how to even work with Paige," Alex said making them look like the heroes even more.

"We do, so we get the case," Stabler nodded.

"I love kids, I work well with them," Goren smiled.

"Does he Eames?" Stabler protested.

"He is fine with my daughter," she shrugged.

"Guys I'm back," Paige smiled walking in.

"Afternoon kiddo," Monique smiled back.

"Freedom from school starts today," Paige sighed with relief.

"Summer vacation is a beautiful thing," Fin smiled and leaned back on his chair.

"Hey Kido," Goren smiled and waved.

"I don't like you," Paige scowled.

"Be nice top Bobby, Paige," Alex Cabot pointed a finger.

"Why?" Piage pouted.

"You have to be nice to everyone no matter how you feel about them. It is called common curtasy," Casey explained.

"I'm sorry Goren I just have issuses with men," Paige explained herself.

"No worries kid it'll take a while to heal," Goren said putting a hand on her shoulder.

"You both are very sensative people so I think you could work well together if you give it a chance," Alex Eames smiled.

"He reminds me of my brother," Paige laughed.

"Brother?" Monique asked.

"Yes, he died when I was ten," Paige nodded.

"Sorry to hear that," Monique sighed.

"It's ok," Paige said saving her apology.

"How did he die, may I ask?" Fin asked cautiously.

"He was fighting in the war on terror for the Americans and he got shot and killed," Paige smiled proudly.

Monique still lowered her head.

"I want to be just like him a hero someone who fights for what's right and defend the weak," Paige smiled brighter.

"So you are getting your career started here?" Casey smiled and put and arm around her.

"Yeah," Paige laughed.

"Was Anna tied up?" Goren said looking at pictures.

"Why do you ask that now Bobby?" Alex Eames said shaking her head.

"I was looking at the photos and there are marks around her neck, ankles and wrist that indecate that of a rope being tied around them," Goren said scratching his head.

"She was held down by hands and legs as far as Melinda is concerned. No rope or chain was found and no fibers were found in her wounds," Fin said waving him off.

"I want to see the body," Goren said jumping up.

"Mrs. Rose is buried and gone, what do you expect to find?" Monique said shaking her head in disgust.

"Dig her up then," Goren pointed and smiled.

"Bobby!" Alex Eames said in shock.

"I believe that she missed something," Goren explained.

"That isn't a first but it is rare," Fin pointed out looking over at Elliot.

"I want to make sure there is no screw ups in our case," Goren said trying to sound serious.

"This whole case is screwed up!" Casey huffed walking out.

Office of M.E Melinda Warner Goren looking at the body

"I knew it," Goren smiled.

"What is it Bobby?" Alex Eames asked walking up to him.

"She was bound by rope look at this," Goren pointed at the marks.

"These marks look like they may have come from a rope," Melinda nodded.

"There was a blue rope found at the scene," Goren said pointing out the evidence picture he found.

Alex came over to the table. "Fin said they didn't find a rope of any kind."

"I did. I put it in the bag before they came in," Goren smiled.

"Oh," Alex shook her head.

"There aren't any fibers in the wounds so I still think that even if she was choked by a rope, it didn't lead to her death," Melinda shook her head as well.

Goren turned around. "Those are rope marks on her neck, wrist and ankles!"

"They may have happened before she was killed, hours before even," Melinda explained.

"Well something happened in that house!" Goren snapped.

"We know that Bobby!" Alex Eames yelled at him. "You need to calm down. She was killed by someone, we just aren't sure of who or how."

"She was strangled both by a rope and by a hand," Melinda said going through notes.

"That's the problem, people don't do thier jobs!" Goren groaned.

"Also Bobby...in the future give me the evidence before this all happens. That way I can DO MY JOB!" Melinda shouted.

"I gave it the that Chinese looking guy," Goren shrugged.

"I am the main ME. You trust me with these types of cases and not my assistants," Melinda insisted.

"He told me he'd give it to you," Goren shrugged again.

"Well wasn't that a joke. I'll talk to him later," Melinda shook her head.

The Chinese guy came in.

Ruben handed her the rope. "I forgot to give you this six months ago."

"Six months Ruben!" Melinda snapped.

"I was tied up," Ruben shrugged.

"That is not how we handle cases! You get tied up with something you hand the important things right over to me and then go about the other," Melinda barked.

"I'm sorry," Ruben lowered his head.

"No excuses. Dismissed," Melinda instructed.

"Bobby quit giving them that dirty look and let's get back to the office," Alex said grabbing his arm.

"Next time you do that I'll have your job!" Goren said angrily at Ruben as he followed Eames.

"I'll make sure of that," Melinda scowled

"I'm sorry Warner I blamed you," Goren said looking down after Alex told to say sorry.

"It's alright Bobby," Melinda waved it off and smiled.

"Have a good day ' Goren smiled.

"You too," Melinda laughed.

SVU precinct

"I was right," Goren said all proud of himself.

"What the hell is his problem?" Fin said annoyed about Bobby's cockiness.

"Does he always have to put it out there like that?" Monique looked at Alex Eames.

"Yes," Goren smiled.

"They are trying to say for you to shut up Bobby so we all can have some say," Alex yelled at him.

"So what if you got the rope thing right. It was on a fault of a rookie ME," Casey waved him off.

"I know I yelled at him with Warner," Goren smiled wider.

"Don't be happy about that. This just gives more work to the SVU Detectives, you guys and of course all of us at the DA's office," Abbie complained.

"Sorry for doing my job," Goren huffed.

"This is a very high profile case, Casey, that Aurther wanted done the moment it started and here we are six months later," Alex said standing back next to Casey.

"I know and I am just as pissed about it. Liz is up my ass!" Casey complained back.

"Liz is always up the A.D.A's ass," Goren shook his head.

"Well Leana is the one who is up mine normally," Abbie sighed.

"Ross is up mine all the time he hates me," Goren complained.

He just doesn't other male Detectives," Megan smiled at Alex.

Alex Eames laughed.

"Eames yelled at him to give me a break back when my mom was sick," Goren smiled at her.

"That was then and this is now Bobby. We all know how you were when she got sick and then died but now we need to look to the future and not the past," Alex said shaking him off.

"Guys I was looking at possible suspects and I got a hit," Munch said surprising everyone.

"Who's the culprate Munch-man?" Fin asked.

"A Christopher Keller was inprisoined for Rape and murder got out in 2003 but never mind he died," Munch read.

"Nice," Monique shook her head.

"He got thorwn off a two story balconey by his lover in prison," Munch went farther.

"That makes it so much better," Casey said sarcastically.

"I found one a Gil Sedan," Munch went on.

"What's his story? Name sounds kind of familiar," Alex said interested.

"Imprisioned in 1993 for rape and murder damn it never mind him too he's still in prison," Munch read and then shook his head.

"Helps," Fin chuckled.

"I got one this morning keeps getting dead ones I got one that's still kicking," Paige said and smiled.

"Name?" Casey smiled looking over her shoulder.

"Richard White," Paige pronounced.

Monique looked at her like she was about to lose her lunch.

"What?" Paige said confused about the look.

"Elliot...I... " Monique waved and then stepped out into the hall for some air.

"Will someone tell me what the hell is going on?" Paige said getting irritated.

"What is she talking about El? What's up with Mo?" Fin said looking worried.

"Richard White was arrested in 1999 by us for stalking, raping then killing his victim, an ADA friend of Abbie and Olivia. He sent Olivia flowers saying he was sorry, "No Hard Feelings"."

"What was so bad that he got that reaction from Monique?" Fin asked.

"He came after Olivia," Stabler gulped.

Casey and Alex Cabot looked at each other and then Elliot again. "He raped her?" Casey asked. "Please Elliot don't tell me he did that," Alex cried.

"He called her house telling her to meet in that special place he held a knife to her throat but he didn't hurt her," Stabler explained.

"What happened to turn him on her?" Fin said leaning towards him.

"She called him a nosey parker," Stabler shook his head.

"I remember that now. An ADA friend of ours was killed by this guy and when she tried to get a confession she got nothing out of him but he got to her," Abbie said as she read.

"Abbie you were with us when this happened," Stabler laughed.

"It has been so long that it just slipped my mind until she said that name again," Abbie shrugged.

"She's lucky we were in the bushes in The Ramble at the park," Stabler smiled.

"She called me at the office that morning and told me to have all of us there, remember that?" Abbie laughed.

"He scared the shit out of her mainly," Stabler said shaking his head.

Monique walked back in. "He scared the shit out of all of us for a while not knowing who he was going to come after next and when."

"He had a lot on you too Elliot," Abbie pointed out.

"He wasn't after me," Stabler looked at her.

"He asked you how your family was! He could have gone after Kathy or any one of your kids!" Abbie snapped.

"But he didn't because we busted him," Stabler smiled.

The phone rang in the precinct Paige put it on speaker and ever kept quiet.

"Hello?" Paige answered.

"Miss Paige Rose I prosume?" Richard replied with a smile in his voice.

"Yes," Paige said politely.

"This is Richard White," he said back politely.

"What do you want?" Paige asked.

"Elliot, how are Olivia and the to-be-expected baby?" Richard laughed over the phone.

"I don't have you on speaker phone Richard," Paige said insistently even though she knew that he knew it wasn't true.

"Sure you do. I can here Elliot's breathing get closer and heavier by each moment," Richard said smiling again.

"The baby and Olivia are fine," Paige said motioning for them to go in the next room.

"I want to speak with Elliot on this matter. Him, Olivia and I have history," Richard insisted.

"I'm here White, speak," Stabler said angrily.

"Then I will talk to you little girl," Richard laughed. "Good, Elliot. Seriously how is Olivia? She isn't there is she? Pitty."

"She's fine," Stabler said frustrated.

"Do I get more than that? She was mine before she was yours," Richard smiled through his words again.

"She was never yours," Stabler insisted.

"She was always mine. I have watched her every move. We made a connection and we were in love with each other since the moment after I left that interrogation room," Richard said.

"You're lying Richard she never loved you," Stabler snapped.

"Do you want to know how I know she isn't there with you Elliot?" Richard laughed.

"How?" Stabler barked.

"You know she is more beautiful now, pregnant, than the day that we met," Richard moaned.

"She's mine," Stabler jumped.

"She is mine now. God Elliot she is beautiful," Richard groaned with pleasure.

"Where are you?" Stabler snapped.

"Now why would I tell you that? I will just say that we are having a great time together," Richard laughed.

"Richard you leave her alone you hear you want mess with someone mess with me," Paige jumped in.

"Now what is up with this little mouth piece again Elliot? We can talk about me and her mother later. I just want to talk about Olivia right now. That is both of our favorite subjects after all isn't it Elliot?" Richard said smiling again.

"Yeah it is," Stabler nodded.

"Now I want you to go to her apartment and we are going to start a game of HOT and COLD," Richard said before hanging up.

Apartment of Olivia Benson

Elliot's cell phone rang

"I'm here now what?" Stabler barked.

"You are very COLD Detective Stabler," Richard laughed.

Stabler walked towards the kitchen "Hot or cold?"

"Look in the microwave," Richard instructed.

Stabler opened the microwave cautiously. "Ok," he said looking up.

"The note in there will have an address," Richard continued.

"West 23rd street," Stabler read.

West 23rd Street

"Hot or cold?" Stabler asked.

"Cool let's say," Richard said softly.

Stabler walked into the bathroom. "Hot or Cold?

A shot is fired down from a loft.

"Colder," Richard laughed.

Stabler went out to look where the gun fire was coming from. "Hot or cold?"

"I just said that you were colder than you were when you went past the stairs," Richard said a little frustrated.

Stabler went up to the stairs. "What way Richard?"

"Come up and join the party Detective," Richard laughed.

Stabler heard a laugh and then another shot fired. Stabler ran up the stairs and into the room where the shots were fired.

"I'm in the room hot or cold?" Stabler said out of breath.

"If you look towards the window you will see the I have the gun on automatic and neither me nor lovely Olivia are here. This means that you are way cold, and maybe too late," Richard laughed. He hangs up again.

"Tell me where to go next!" Stabler shouted. Stabler stood there not knowing what to do.

"We'll find her El," Monique said reassuringly.

"Fuck off!" Stabler shouted.

"We won't give up yet man," Fin said trying to encourage him not to give up.

"I fell for his stupid games again," Stabler said frustrated.

Fin and Monique pulled back as he rushed out past them.

Ricahrd rang him back forgetting to tell him something.

Stabler collected himself before leaving the room. "Hello?"

"Sorry Elliot I forgot to mention another note on the banester of the stairs," Richard laughed at his mistake of not giving Elliot another clue.

"What's it about?" Stabler asked walking over to the stairs again.

"It has a combination to a storage locker in the ware house district," Richard explained.

Ware House District

"Now what?" Stabler barked.

"She is in a lot of pain Elliot. You better find that locker get into it before she leaves us for good," Richard laughed.

"I found it," Stabler said looking at the door.

"Come on in," Richard smiled.

Stabler went in. "I'm in now what?"

"She is in the back. Hopefully she is still alive. I left her there a little while ago and she was still alive, but barely," Richard laughed.

"You bastard," Stabler said angrily.

Richard hangs up

Stabler found Benson. "Liv you ok?"

"Elliot!" Olivia screams in pain.

Stabler taking her in his arms. "I'm here."

"The baby..." she moans before passing out.

"Let's go to the hospital," he whispered to her.

Mercy Hospital

An hour later the doctor came to the waiting room where Stabler was.

"Mr. Stabler?" Dr. Delemico came out to the waiting room.

"Yes Ma'am," Stabler said standing up.

"Miss Benson has gone into premature labour," she said concerned.

"Are she and the baby going be ok?" Stabler said back with concern in his voice.

"They are both going to be fine. There was some bleeding when you brought her in and she will need a C-Section. I need you to sign these forms to approve as you are the father," Dr. Delemico said handing him the clipboard.

Stabler signed the forms.

"We can get the baby out within 60 seconds if we need to. Everything will be ok Mr. Stabler. She is in good hands," she explained to him.

"Can I see her?" Stabler asked with concern in his voice still.

"For a few minutes and just you for now. We are prepping her," she cautioned.

"Tell me when I can come back then Doc," Stabler said.

"You can follow me now. Get you scrubbed in," she smiled.

Stabler got his scrubs on and followed her.

"Give her our love Elliot," Casey smiled.

Stabler nodded following the doctor.

"Elliot?" Olivia cried.

"Yeah, honey," he smiled at her.

"What's wrong? What's going on?" Olivia said panicked. She began to cry as she grabbed his shirt.

"They might have to take the baby now," he explained to her.

"It's too soon Elliot," she cried harder.

"It'll be ok, I'm right here and not going anywhere until it is time," he assured her.

"Too soon...," she sobbed.

Stabler just held her it was the only thing he could do was he cried with her.

"We are ready to bring her into the operating room now," the doctor said.

Stabler following them to keep Olivia calm until they got there.

"Ok remember we can get the baby out within a minute so it will all be ok," the doctor nodded to Elliot.

"I'll be out in the waiting room come get me when you need me," Stabler informed them.

"Ok. Here we go with the insision Olivia," the doctor told Olivia.

"Here comes the baby," Dr. Ross said up to Olivia.

"What is going on?" Dr. Green said looking down and saw a second head after the first baby was pulled out.

"Looks like twins Miss Benson," Dr. Delemico said pulling out the second baby.

"Oh My God," Olivia cried.

"Congrats," Dr. Ross laughed as he took the second baby over to be cleaned.

Dr. Delemico walked out to the waiting room and was ambushed by the whole squad.

Stabler stood up to call order. "Hold up let the doc speak!"

"Mr. Stabler you are the new father of two beautiful baby boys," she smiled.

"Boys," he repeated, about to cry.

"Twins!" Casey squeeled.

"Yes sir beautiful boys," Dr. Delemico nodded.

"Can I see them?" Stabler asked excited.

"Yes, please come in," the doctor encouraged.

"Hey baby," Elliot said stepping in and smiling at Olivia.

"Look Elliot, we have twin boys," Olivia cried.

"Are you naming them both?" Elliot said looking at them.

"I want one at least to be Elliot Stabler Jr.," she smiled.

"Can the other be Blade?" He said serious.

"What is up with men and that movie?" Olivia laughed.

"I've never seen that movie," he shrugged.

"How could you have not seen it and still have the balls to say it?" She laughed harder.

"What do you mean by that?" Elliot said still confused.

"Blade? C'mon El," she laughed.

"It's a cool name," he shrugged again.

"Blade Stabler?" She asked for reassurance.

"Yep," he smiled.

"Or are they going to have my name for now since we really aren't together per-say?" She smiled at him.

"Yours," he said putting his head down seeming a little hurt.

"I'm playing with you Elliot. Of course our kids will have your name no matter our status with each other," she laughed.

"Ok," he smiled, happy again.

"I love you," she smiled, shaking her head at him.

"I love you too," he said kissing her.

"And our little boys, Elliot and Blade," she smiled down at them lying in her arms.

"I want to show them off," he said excitedly.

Olivia lifted her arms for Elliot to hold each of them up. "Here you go to daddy boys. Give everyone my love El," she smiled.

"I will," he smiled. Stabler went out to the waiting room holding the kids. "Guy's meet my two sons Blade and Elliot."

"Yay!" Casey said coming over and smothering them with kisses immediately.

"They're so tiny!" Alex cued.

"They're so cute Elliot," Monique laughed.

"Tough little boys those two," Cragen said proudly.

"With all their mom went through to keep them safe and then them coming into the world almost three months early, they are tough," Fin said nodding.

"They are fighters like their mommy," Stabler smiled.

"Definitely," Casey smiled.

"I'm going kill Richard once we get him," Stabler snarled.

"Let's not talk about that right now Elliot. The boys are here and they are healthy. Richard made that happen no matter how it happened it did," Alex smiled.

"I have to put them back they need their rest We'll be back tomorrow I told Liv we will be back sometime tomorrow," Stabler smiled at the group.

"Ok," Casey said smiling down at Jr. touching his head gently.

SVU Precinct one P.M The phone rang it was Richard again

Paige put it on speaker phone. "Hello?"

"Elliot, how is our Olivia today?" Richard smiled.

"Fine," Stabler said covering his anger.

"And the baby?" Richard asked.

"Perfect," Stabler said clinching his teeth.

"Which one? I know she had twins," Richard laughed.

"Both of them are fine," Stabler said trying to control himself.

"Good. I couldn't imagine her little angels being hurt at all," Richard said with a fake pouty voice.

"Yeah they're innocent beans," Stabler said looking at their first photos on his desk.

"Now Olivia and you are a different story in my book," Richard smiled again.

"Oh Really?" Stabler said with interest.

"You two hurt me bad, Elliot," Richard pouted again.

"How did we hurt you Richard?" Stabler asked.

"You took away some fun times from me," Richard said.

" You mean Olivia, and I'm not letting someone hurt my friend again," Stabler swore.

"Friend?" Richard laughed.

"Best friend in the world," Stabler insisted.

"Whatever happened to girlfriend? Or future wife? Mother of your children?" Richard listed the answers he could have come up with.

"She is all of those and more," Stabler choked up.

Richard yawned out of bordum. "I am ready to talk about my lovely afternoon I spent with Anna now."

"Do you want Paige?" Stabler asked quickly waving for her to come back to the phone.

"It doesn't matter who I say this to. It will come out to all at one point," Richard huffed over the phone.

"Speak then Richard," Stabler said annoyed.

"She was quite the screamer," Richard laughed.

"But not like Olivia right?" Stabler pushed.

"Oh Olivia's screams," Richard moaned. "But I am done talking about her for now. She is old news for now. Maybe she and I will be together again someday but right now I just like to watch her and her children from my window across the street from hers."

"Ok what do you want to talk about?" Stabler went on.

"Or maybe I am nowhere near her, Elliot. Where am I Detective?" Richard pushed back.

"Some place hard to find," Stabler said more irritated.

"Do you know where your beautiful ADA Casey Novak went after you left the hospital?" Richard asked.

"You didn't," Stabler jumped and so did the rest of the squad towards the phone.

Casey screams over the phone, "Elliot!"

"Don't hurt her," Stabler ordered. "What do you want me to do?"

"Oh I saw how Fin looked at her when the mean man had a knife to her neck. I think this will be him and me this time. Detective Tutuola I would love to meet you sir," Richard laughed.

"Where do you want to meet?" Fin asked angrily with a bit of worry.

"Olivia and I used to love The Ramble," Richard said cheerfully before hanging up.

"He's been waiting for a long time for this," Stabler said pissed off.

"He killed one ADA there and God knows he'll do it again," Abbie said in agreement.

"He knows about the babies," Stabler said sitting down in a worried state again.

"We can't let him get away with any of this. Don, get a team to go to the hospital and watch Olivia and the boys. Elliot you go there too. Fin; take Monique, John and Chester with you to The Ramble," Alex said taking action and leadership for the group of now beyond worried people.

"I want to be at the Rambles to get that bastard," Stabler said to her angrily.

"Let's go guys. He isn't going to have Casey," Fin said gathering up his gang.

"I'll stay with Liv," Cragen suggested, trying to calm Elliot.

"That is very admirable Don but Elliot c'mon Olivia needs you. You are the father," Monique said going over to Elliot.

"Ok. I'll go to Olivia and my babies," Elliot finally agreed.

Fin rested a hand on his shoulder and smiled. "I'll beat the hell out of him for you El. He has Casey too remember, he's got it coming from me too," he winked.

"I'll get him in interrogation," Stabler winked back.

"You do that!" Fin shouted back as he walked out with the others.

Mercy Hospital Benson's room

"Did you get White Elliot?" Olivia asked nervously.

"No, but he's got Casey now and he knows about the babies," Stabler warned her.

"No!" She cried.

"Don't worry, we'll get her back and get him," Stabler assured her.

"What's up with the rat squad here? Shouldn't they be out looking for Casey?" Olivia cried looking at the door.

"Shit they're here now," Stabler said in anger.

"They are just here to protect you for now. They aren't here because of the two of you," Alex informed them.

Stabler sighed, relived. "Thank God."

"Like before we don't know if he still has Casey or he dropped her somewhere and ran again," Alex reminded them.

"Yeah," Elliot nodded.

"So who is looking for her?" Olivia asked.

"Fin...He told Fin directly to do it," Elliot told her.

"Fin?" Olivia said with some confusion.

"Yeah, he said he saw the way he looked at her when Ben hurt her," Elliot explained.

"They love each other Elliot. He uses that against his victims. He exploits their loved ones and toys with their emotions," Olivia cried.

"I failed to protect you, Liv," Elliot lowered his head.

"He has gone after me twice and I am still here Elliot. The third time won't be on his charm list," Olivia smiled at him.

"Did he rape you?" Elliot asked with concern again.

Olivia shook her head. "I told the doctors to do a rape kit when I came in before the babies came and they thankfully said, no."

"Thank God," Stabler cried.

Stabler's phone rang it was Richard. "Stabler."

"Elliot, hi! How is Olivia now? Fine, I presume, because that is all you have said to me. Even when she wasn't," Richard laughed.

"What do you want White?" Stabler asked, annoyed.

"Has your friend, Fin, called you yet to say if he found Casey?" Richard asked.

"Not yet," Stabler said bringing his status up to angry again.

"I wonder why," Richard laughed again.

"Do you want Paige, you said wanted to talk to her?" Stabler asked looking over at her.

"Oh she came with you to the hospital?" Richard said in somewhat of a surprised voice. "I would have expected she wanted to come after me as much as you did. Smart, Monique advised against that didn't she. Also that other lawyer woman, oh what is her name, Alex I believe? She is beautiful too Elliot. I think I might want her to be my next girlfriend. What do you think?"

"Take me leave them alone," Stabler snapped.

"So want you to play a game of go after someone your own size?" Richard laughed.

"I'm the perfect size for you," Stabler growled.

"Well not really but your Captain is definately my size and he is right in the line of my fire too," Richard chuckled.

"NO! Take me, I'm open Richard!" Elliot shouted.

"Elliot, what is going on?" Olivia cried.

Stabler motioned for her to be quiet. "Come on if you're a man why don't you come get me."

The sound of a shot came over the reciever.

"Goodnight dear Captain," Richard said.

Stabler fall to the ground trying not to cry. "Take me man come on."

Richard hangs up the phone.

"Elliot?" Alex asked worried now.

"Tell us what happened Elliot!?" Olivia cried.

Stabler collected himself to the best of his ability. "He shot Don."

"No!" Olivia screamed.

"What the hell is the FBI doing here?" She said beginning to cry but looking up at the door.

"This is out of your hands now," Dean said walking in.

"Screw you, it's ours, he's our perp," Stabler shouted, getting in his face.

"He has a member of the DA's office. This is more than that now," Dean barked.

"I said its SVU and Major Case Squad's case it deals with rape so back off," Stabler said gathering himself again.

"You can have the case on him for the rape of the mother but we have the kidnapping of the ADA," Dean said waving Elliot to back off of him.

"Elliot, let Dean help us to get White," Olivia pleaded.

"We investigate Rape, murder, kidnapping, abuse, child indangerment," Syabelr protested.

"Kidnapping of children, kids. This is a New York State employed ADA!" Dean protested right back.

"I don't like you, and Branch said it's ours so back off!" Elliot said showing papers out of his pocket.

Dean pulled papers out too. "I have a singed warrent from the DA that this has been turned over to me as of now. Now you can work with me or just back off, yourself!"

Stabler looked from Dean to Olivia and then back to Dean. "Fine I'll work with you."

"And with Don possably being dead this will definately go to the FBI and IAB," Alex added.

"I provoked him to do it," Stabler lowered his head.

"It doesn't matter for what reason he did it. He did what he did and that will get him good time down in Florence and then they have the death penalty for him to look forward to too," Dean said smiling.

"He's smart, he can duck that," Stabler shook his head.

"I won't let that happen." He smiled thinly at Olivia.

"She's got a boyfriend already Dean," Elliot said.

"Thank you Dean. Elliot, behave!" Olivia said smiling at Elliot and then looking over at Elliot in disgust.

"I didn't notice, really Detective," Dean said pointing out the boys asleep in their basinettes.

Stabler smiled with fatherly pride. "They are cuties."

"That they are," Dean nodded in agreement.

"I have to check in at the precinct to see if they got anything there. I'll be back to talk later Olivia," Alex said looking at her phone and then smiling at Olivia.

"Ok," Olivia smiled back.

"NO!" Stabler shouted.

"What's wrong El honey?" Olivia said confused.

"Don't go Alex," Stabler said warning.

"I'll be back asap Detective," Alex soluted playfully at him.

"Don't go let me go with you then. Dean watch Olivia," Stabler said going over to her.

"I can take Alex in the sedan. You stay with your family," Dean smiled.

"See El, I am in good hands," Alex smiled too.

Stabler looked frightened. "Are you gonna tell IAB?"

"I am a friend Detective Stabler. I have no offiliation with IAB and even if I did I can't stand them and I couldn't live with hurting you or Olivia," Dean assured him.

"Please let them go El. We need you here," Olivia smiled.

"You watch my freind closely," Stabler ordered.

"I will," Dean nodded and smiled back at them again as him and Alex stepped out.

"I hate being scared of making every move," Stabler said shaking his head.

"That is the world we live in now El. We can't help but be cautious and a bit over protective of those we care about," Olivia said assuringly.

"I know what you mean you spend your whole life trying to protect the ones you love and then this happens and you feel like you failed," Stabler nodded.

"We haven't completely failed yet Stabler," Olivia smiled.

"I will die if he hurts them," Stabler said turning to the boys.

"Now I won't let him touch our boys. That is my mother's protectiveness coming out," Olivia laughed.

"He messed with the wrong women," Stabler laughed too.

"You know it," she said she leaned towards him for a kiss.

"I love you," Stabler said softly.

"I love you too El," she said back to him.

SVU Percent The next day Benson was in Cragen's office with the Babies hiding out.

"We're here for you man," Ed said to Elliot.

"How have you been Elliot?" Lenny laughed.

"How are Olivia and the kids?" Ed smiled.

"Excellent and I've been ok concidering," Elliot half smiled.

"Glad to here it man!" Lenny smiled punching Elliot's shoulder.

"You guys want to meet the new addtions to my family?" Stab;er smiled wider.

"Sure," Lenny nodded.

Stabler walked them into Cragen's office. "Lenny, Ed meet Blade and Elliot."

"Good thing they look more like Olivia. Her eyes and hair at least," Lenny teased Elliot.

"Real funny Lenny," Stabler smirked.

"Didn't you know he is a moonlight comedian like Munchy?" Ed teased.

"I know," Elliot laughed.

"Crazy people I work with..." Olivia shook her head.

The phone rang Stabler answered it out in the precinct it was White. "Hello?" Stabler answered.

"Elliot, you know I never get tired of hearing your voice?" Richard laughed.

"Funny, what do you want?" Stabler huffed.

"I just wanted to tell you another thing about when I was with the dearly departed Anna. Is that ok with you?" Richard asked sounding a little too anxious to be cooperative.

"Speak," Stabler ordered.

"I cut her clothes down the center and then peeled them back slowly. I went on top of her and pressed my hands to her throat as I let myself in her. She made that gurgling sound that I had told you that one ADA made before she died. Our dear Casey was just making that same noise you know," Richard said with a smile.

"Do you want new blood Richard?" Paige barked.

"Casey and I are still having fun right now so...no...maybe later," Richard laughed before hanging up.

Stabler throws the phone thought the window.

"Elliot! What the hell?" Olivia snapped walking out into the bullpen.

"He's raping her," Elliot shouted.

"Oh no!" Olivia gasped.

"He said and I quote "I cut her clothes down the center and then peeled them back slowly. I went on top of her and pressed my hands to her throat as I let myself in her. She made that gurgling sound that I had told you that one ADA made before she died. Our dear Casey was just making that same noise you know." End of quote." Elliot said sitting back down.

"No!" Olivia cried.

"Don't worry I'll get him good," Stabler nodded to himself.

"Yeah, I am done with his stupid games and I just got here!" Ed said breaking into the conversation.

"I've been done," Stabler said angrily.

The Ramble

"Her blood is all over here," Fin pointed out.

"We'll find her," Stabler said with a little hope in him.

"God I hope so El,' Fin sighed.

"We found her clothes over here," Monique pointed the evidence plates out.

"Found something!" Paige shouted.

Fin and Monique rushed over. "We have been here for more than a day. What else did you find?" in asked.

Paige moved so they could see. "What's this?"

"It looks like a heel of a shoe with blood all over it," Monique said putting on a glove and picking it up.

"I'm really getting pissed off at his games," Stabler scowled.

"So what, he broke her shoe and then stabbed her with the heel?" Fin shook his head.

"Bring the dogs over, they will help us a lot," Stabler instructed.

"That looks like that may be the case," Monique said calling the k9 over to the scene.

Stabler gave one of the dogs Casey's shirt. "Sniff her out boy."

The dog walks for ten blocks before stopping cold in front of a motel.

"What is it boy?" Stabler asked.

"You think she could be up there?" Monique said looking up at the crappy motel.

"I hope she is," Fin gulped.

In the motel

Stabler gave the dog her sense again. "Find her boy." He ran up to the top floor.

"Open the door Honey," Stabler said to Paige.

Paige opened the door and went in followed by Tutuola. Fin ran to Casey tied to the bed post. "Casey! Baby wake up!"

Stabler patted the dog. "Good Boy."

"C'mon baby please don't leave me like this," Fin whispered to Casey.

"Casey think of the babies you playing with them and teaching them what you know," Stabler said.

"C'mon Casey. Please wake up," Monique pleaded.

Fin began to cry. "Casey."

Stabler went up to her and gently touched her face. "Casey Honey wake up come baby give us a sign you're still alive."

Casey's eyes fluttered and then slowly opened.

Fin held her close in his arms. "Casey."

Casey looked up at him blinking. She was naked and drenched in sweat and her own blood.

"Is she ok?" Stabler asked.

"Her forehead is hot. It looks like the bleeding has stopped," Fin told them.

"Fin..." Casey breathed.

"Hey don't talk. We will get you out of here as soon as possible," Fin whispered to her.

"An ambulance just pulled up outside," Dean informed them.

"Thanks for the dogs Dean," Stabler said shaking his hand.

"No problem. That is what they are for anyway," Dean smiled.

Hospital an hour later the doctor came back with the results.

Stabler was standing just inside Casey's room with Fin. "What are the results Doc?"

"She was raped but the blood luckily wasn't from that. He sliced at her arms, legs and stomach with what might possibly be a razer," Dr. Delemico explained.

"His ass is mine," Stabler grunted.

"Not if I get to him first," Fin groaned.

"No," Olivia yelled at Ed wanting to come into Casey's room too.

"No you don't want in there," Ed said holding her back.

"Let me go see my friend Ed!" Olivia screamed.

"No Olivia!" Ed ordered.

Stabler stepped out." You don't want in there."

"Elliot? What's wrong? Why can't I be with Casey?" Olivia cried.

Stabler held her back. "You don't want to see that Liv, stay here."

"Elliot, tell me why you can go in and see her but I can't!" Olivia shouted.

"She was raped and cut up pretty badly, I don't want that image in your head," Stabler said trying to calm her.

"I see it all the time! She barked at him getting angry. She is my friend Elliot and I want to be there for her like always," Olivia cried out.

"No. not now," Stabler said holding her.

"I was with her when she was beat up the first time and I want to be there now!" Olivia said pushing him away.

"Fine," Stabler said giving.

Olivia pushed him out of her way and went into the room.

"Liv go home," Casey choked out.

"Casey, I want to be with you. Why is everyone telling me to leave including you? You have never been like this, no one has," Olivia asked.

"You need to rest up, you have babies now to look after," Casey said looking up at her.

"They are being taken care of right now. I need to be with my friend right now because she is hurting and needs love more than ever," Olivia said smiling.

"I haven't seen Don where is he?" Casey said sitting up.

"He is ok Casey. Trust me," Olivia said not wanting worry her further. "Casey, you didn't turn me away when you were attacked the first time and I don't expect myself to turn away from you now. Just know that."

"I'm scared Liv," Casey said crying.

"I know you are honey and that is ok. Just know that we are all here," Olivia smiled.

"Why did he pick me?" Casey sniffed.

"He uses people's emotions to pick his victims. He knew that you and I had a connection. Also he saw Fin when he shot Ben," Olivia explained. "Fin wanted to protect you no matter the cost to him or to the case at the time."

"We need to stop him," Casey pulling herself up more.

"We will Casey. You need to take a load off. We have Abbie and Alex to get us in with judges right now. You have nothing to worry about," Olivia reassured her.

A women with short chestnut brown hair and baby blue eyes came into the room. "She's right you're in good hands now Miss. Novak," Agent Ash smiled.

"Can I help you?" Olivia said confused.

Ash put out her hand. "I'm Agent Emily Ash with the FBI Dean told me what's been going on he had to take another case and told me to take over for him."

Olivia took her phone out to call Dean.

"Hello?" Dean said seeing it was Olivia.

"Dean what's going on?" Olivia snapped.

"I've been reassigned to a new case so I told Agent Emily Ash to take over for me," Dean explained.

"Damn it Agent Porter!" Olivia yelled.

"I'm sorry but it comes from the boss not me," Dean shrugged.

"What does he have to say about this? An ADA is raped and beaten and they send in what looks like a kid to deal with the investigation!" Olivia screamed.

"We can no longer talk from here on out I have to go," Dean sighed.

"As FBI I know that George and Melinda would have a fit!" Olivia shouted at him.

Dean hangs up the phone.

"Dean!" Olivia shouted.

"I know you don't like me Detective," Ash sighed.

"Fuck!" Olivia shouted out again.

"I'm not a kid Detective and I'm not a newbie," Ashe said defensively.

"Listen up Ash! I am not letting some stranger come in here and take this case! From here on out the FBI is done with this as far as I am concerned and SVU is on! Including me!" Olivia said getting up in her face.

"Yes!" Fin said excited for Olivia's return.

The guys looked in the door.

"Fin?" Casey smiled.

Ash put her hands up defensively. "I understand I'm just here to help out I told Dean it was your guys case to start out with anyways."

"Hey sweetie," Fin smiled at Casey coming in.

"I hope me and you can be friends," Ash said to Casey.

"I don't like FBI in the first place so why would I befriend you? The only ones I have ever trusted were George and Melinda," Casey protested.

"I'm actually being transfored to SVU as a Detective I'm going to numbre 16 n manhattan," Ash smiled.

"Hell you are and I think you should leave now Agent Ash," Fin shouted.

Ash saw Munch in the door and smiled. "Hey Munch you haven't changed much since I seen you last."

"Niether have you Emily," Munch smiled back.

"This is stupid! Our Captain and ADA are injured and now this!" Fin complained aloud.

Munch marched in defending her. "Hey give her a break she's a nice perosn."

"I really don't care! Casey is lying there in that bed! Don is lying in a bed in the ICU! I can't fucking stand this!" Fin shouted.

Ash left the room.

The next morning seven A.M Ash was sitting at a desk looking over paper work as everyone one came in.

"What the fuck! You again!" Fin shouted at her again.

"What is going on?" Abbie said confused.

"I'm the new Detective here," Ash smiled at her.

"This is rediculous!" Alex C complained.

"Hey Sargent Munch, what the fuck!" Monique laughed.

"You know what I severd six years in Homicide eight in FBI and I wanted this job but my father told the FBI to take me so I had no say in it so if you don't like me fine but I am just like you guys and want justice so you guys can be pissy about this or suck it up and help me find Richard before he hurts someone else!" Ash said defending herself.

"Help you!" Fin laughed.

"Just like us!" Monique laughed with him.

"This is bull shit!" Alex C shook her head.

"I'm sorry, I want to help but a rapist away I just wanted to help the best Detectives around and help them bring a perp down!" Ask said.

"Let the professionals do their job then! They seem to be having problems with us around anyway," Alex Eames laughed.

"Yeah that was fun coming in here," Megan laughed with her.

Ash sat back down hiding the emotions the case was bringing up. "I just wanted to help that's all I know how Novak feels," Ash said holding back tears.

Olivia walked into the bullpen. "Bull shit!" She laughed. There was a file on Benson's desk Benson read it...it was of a girl from 2 months to 16 years of age who was raped and beaten by her father. "Hey, I come back and already have this stuff on my desk?"

Ash stood up. "How'd you get that file?"

"Hell if I know," Olivia said handing it off.

Fin laughed and gave Olivia a high five.

Ash started reading it and about fall back into her chair with a scared look on her face.

"Who ate your lunch?" Olivia teased.

"This was confidential files at the FBI," Ash explained.

"Oh I worked with them," Olivia laughed. "Not the best thing I ever did for my career but it was time away from these Looney Tunes," she teased Fin and John.

"Why would anyone want you to have my file from when I reported my father?" Ash wondered.

"Your dad molested you?" Olivia said curious.

"Yes from when I was 2 months to when I was 16 years old," Ash nodded.

"Oh. I'm sorry," Olivia said legitimately sorry now.

"It's ok," Ash shook her head.

"Even if that is so I still don't trust you on this with us," Fin said still skeptical.

"I understand where you guys are coming from and if you don't want me here then I'll leave," Ash put her head down.

"Your fine for now. Fin is just sour because his girlfriend is in the hospital and he wants to be the one with El to nail his balls," Olivia shook her head at Fin.

"I want to too," Ash smiled.

"Me and Emily were partners back in Baltimore," Munch chimed.

"Oh not as badly as them!" Olivia laughed.

"Nice Munchy!" Monique laughed.

"She's a slinky little twit and will do anything for her friends," Munch smiled.

"I'll do anything for you guys if you give me a chance," Ash said giving them a questioning smile.

"I guess we can do that. You get Paige though because everyone has a partner accept the new kid," Olivia pointed.

"Cool," Ash smiled at Paige even though Paige had a dirty look on her face.

"Also Munch no playing favorites because of history! Remember Sarg, you are in charge until Capt. comes home!" Fin pointed, scolding.

"I'm really sorry about Don," Ash said sincerely.

"We all are," Olivia sighed.

The phone rang Ash answered it putting it on speaker it was White. "Hello?" Ash said.

"Olivia, is that your new friend honey?" Richard laughed.

"What do you want Richard?" Olivia said irritated.

"Isn't that an obvious question?" Richard laughed again.

"What do you want scum-bag?" Ash scowled.

"Olivia of course, Miss Emily Ash, but you wouldn't know much about that would you?" Richard smiled.

"What are you talking about?" Ash asked, confused as to what was going on.

"He attacked me too," Olivia whispered to her.

"Richard why don't you go play out in the street," Ash moaned.

"I like playing in the park more," Richard laughed.

"I bet you do you scum-bag bastard," Ash said to him.

"Naughty girl with such a big vocab. Of course I am a scum-bag bastard, you idiot!" Richard laughed.

"Why don't you match wits with me then and meet me to see who's smarter then?" Ash said.

"Ash!" Olivia shouted silently.

"Listen to Olivia, Emily. She knows what she is talking about," Richard laughed.

"I'm not afraid of you, you know nothing about me," Ash shook her head not knowing how much he knew exactly until it was too late.

"Daddy dearest molested you from when you were an infant until you could buy a car. You worked for the FBI for the past seven years. You have been divorced and been straight up left by three different men in two years...Is that enough for now Agent Ash?" Richard smirked.

"You don't scare me, you're nothing but a coward," Ash snapped.

"A coward? Olivia, who does this girl think she is?" Richard laughed.

"Smart! Which scares me," Olivia said looking at her.

Richard laughed again, harder.

"What's so funny Richard?" Ash asked.

"That no one seems to have faith in you let alone the fact that you have all the faith in the world. I have killed an ADA, almost killed another and almost killed Olivia twice. It isn't for a lack of trying you understand," Richard said continuing to laugh.

"I'm not afraid of you so bring it on you scum bastard," Ash said again fearlessly.

"Again with the little girl vocabulary! Call me a Jackass, an asshole, a fucker, something with substance! I deserve everything you got and more!" Richard snapped.

"You have to get me and piss me off before I call you worse," Ash snapped back.

"You're weaker than you claim that I am!" Richard laughed.

"I'm not weak at least I have the balls to call you out," Ash defended.

"Excuse me but I believe I called YOU out but pose your life's shit story to you colleuges!" Richard corrected.

"I don't care that they know I was raped so bring it on you don't know anything else about me," Ash shrugged off.

"You sometimes talk in your sleep about your father, you take notes anally about everything you can, you ask too many questions, you are way too forward towards people you just meet, and that is why no one likes you from the start!" Richard laughed again

"If no one likes me then why don't you kill me," Ash asked.

"I don't know if Olivia or anyone else told you this but I like to play with people's emotions. I like to take away loved ones from people. Since you are a nobody and have nobody you are useless to me," Richard explained.

"I got people you don't know so the jokes on you Ricahrd," Ash laughed herself.

"You have no idea who I am, what I know, or what I am capable of! That is just the beginning!" Richard told her.

Munch walked into to the room. "Emmy who's on the phone?"

"Who do you think?" Olivia laughed.

"Sergent Munch! Hello old friend! It's Richard White!" Richard laughed out loud.

"Leave my freinds and ex-girlfriend alone richard why don't you just confess you're gonna die anyways," Munch warned.

"Girlfriend?" Richard laughed again.

"Yes we used to date we been freinds for a long time," Munch explained, irritated.

"The young beautiful, Emily Ash, and the old, scrony Serent Munch! Well when you were together in Baltimore I guess you were still Detective!" Richard exclaimed.

"So what you're nonthing but a low life who thinks he's better than everyone," Ash said coldly.

"I don't think, I know!" Richard exclaimed.

"Tell us why you called here for Richard," Stabler ordered, walking in.

"Elliot, when did you get here? I thought you were with the boys!" Richard cheered.

"I am," Stabler exclaimed.

"Oh so those two little angels are there too!" Richard cooed playfully.

"Yes they are," Stabler said looking at them.

"That's nice," Richard smiled.

"The girls and I have been talking forever and one Emily doesn't get it, two Olivia hasn't said anything of much interest to me, three I am bored so I am hanging up now! Goodbye al!" Richard said before hanging up the phone.

Silence
