AN: Ok. Time for a shorter chapter.

I want to appologize for taking so long to type this one. I've got strep-throat and I'm in a lot of pain right now. It hurts really bad just to whisper, so I'm not talking a hell of a lot.

I had this written about a week ago, but that's around the time I started getting sick. The doctor has me on some pills that will (God willing) help my pain and clear my throat up.

Disclaimer: Anybody else excited that Benson and Stabler are coming back? I know I am! Oh yeah, btw, not mine. :)

It took some time and effort, but Dani managed to discover that a Dana Lewis had tipped Olivia off.

"Star?" Elliot said.

"I guess that's what you know her as." Dani said.

"We're going to have to retrace Olivia's steps and pick up where she left off." Cragen said. "We'll use Dani to infiltrate."

Dani nodded. "Anything I can do to help."

"Why her, Cap?" Fin asked.

"Because whomever identified Olivia probably knows this squad too. Dani's never really been associated with this unit. We'll have a better shot at success with her."

Fin nodded. "Ah. I see. Makes sense."

------------------------------

Olivia decided to go to McDonald's and grab her a small burger. She didn't like fast food most of the time, but today she was craving a hamburger. From the McDonald's, she called Elliot.

"What anything?"

"Where are you?"

"McDonald's."

"Big Mac."

"Ok. Anything else?"

"Nah, I'm good."

"Ok. See you in a minute." She hung up her phone.

After ordering and receiving her food, she exited the McDonald's and began to walked back to the precinct. She had barley started to cross the street when a car sped up and tried to run her down. She dodged, and the car sped out of control and into a light post.

A few minutes later the police were at the scene along with an ambulance. The paramedics were looking Olivia over, while the police were putting the body, of the now dead driver, into a body bag. Elliot ran to Olivia's side, using his badge to get passed the crowd that had formed around the scene.

"Liv? Oh my God, are you ok?"

Olivia was scratched up. "I'm fine. Nothing major."

He stood there. He could have lost her. Out of instinct, he pulled her into a hug. "Thank God you're ok."

In that moment, something happened to Olivia. Something snapped. Suddenly everything came flooding back to her. Receiving the package from Star. Being shocked by the photo of her father, debating on telling her brother, everything. She pulled away from him slowly.

She looked at him and smiled. "Thanks."

------------------------------------

Once she was deemed ok, Olivia returned to the precinct with Elliot. The whole squad was worried.

"I'm fine. A little banged up, but otherwise fine."

"They really have it in for you." Munch said. "See, the government is evil."

"Not all Fed's are evil, Munch. Star is trying to stop them, but she doesn't want to blow her cover. She's spying on them from the inside."

Munch smiled. "That's rare." he said sarcastically.

Olivia ignored him.

Elliot wouldn't leave her side. He was worried that he'd be unable to save her should another attempt on her life be made. They had no idea who the driver of the car was. They ran her fingerprints, but no luck.

"Who knows. She could be one of the dozens who are thought to be dead. We may never know her name." Cragen said.

"Maybe that's a good thing." Fin said. "The family's already greving. No need to re-open wounds."

Munch nodded

-------------------------

It took six months, but they managed to use Dani to infiltrate the complex. She was using the name Amanda Stephens, a computer programer. Luckily, Dani was a wizz with computers. The squad didn't understand why she didn't work with computer crimes.

"We'll have minimal contack with her." Cragen said.

"How long till we can move the prisoners?" Elliot asked.

"Only time will tell." Cragen said.

Olivia looked at the picture of her father and took a deep breath. "This is going to be one hell of a ride." she said.

Everyone agreed. Elliot put his arm around Olivia's waist.

"It'll be ok."

"I sure hope so." she said. The knot in her stomache didn't agree with Elliot.

How did you guys like that chapter?

Sorry it's so short. But this chapter is what I like to call a transition chapter. One short chapter that sets things up a little more for the following chapter. I'll get to finishing chapter eight as soon as I can. It may be a little longer than planned, but I will get it up.

If you read, please review.
