Hi readers, If you get a chance drop me a review. It can be bad. I don't mind. I kind of feel like I wrote the last three chapters really fast, so they probably need a rewrite. And I'm sure there are some grammar spelling issues. I just got an abundance of ideas and I can't keep up with them, so I'm trying to get them all out at once.
Peace Out EOers. Oh on a side note. What does shipper mean? I hate asking that, because so many people use it, but I can't figure it out.

Home Sweet Home
Olivia's heart stopped. "Did we just say…"
Elliot cut her off. "Yeah, we have to get off of this boat."
They climbed down the ladder and Elliot interrupted the party. "Rob, Sarah, I hate to cut this short, but Maria isn't feeling well, can we head back to dry land? "
Robert looked at him suspiciously. "Sure. Maria, can my wife get you anything? Dramamine, ginger ale, Advil?"
"No thanks, I just need to get home." Olivia smiled and pretended to look sick as she sat on a chair next to Elliot.
Robert revved the engine and hit the gas full speed towards land. Elliot wrapped a towel around Olivia who was shivering from the cool night wind. Sarah bugged them obnoxiously about seasickness and Olivia nodded with a hint of semi-pretend pain on her face.
Scene
Fin typed frantically to find Rick's history and information. After getting through some security loopholes he found that he and Alicia were cut from the same cloth. He snooped around Rick's desk and found his used coffee mug. He sealed the mug in plastic and called Melinda on her home phone.
"Hello."
"Melinda, I know you're at home and I'm sorry to bug you, but I need a favor."
"You still owe me from the last favor I gave you."
Fin scrunched his face, "Yeah, I know. But I'll owe Elliot and Olivia more if I can't persuade you to do a DNA test for me."
She sighed, "Using that old story on me again. Meet me at the lab."
Scene
Munch followed Casey and Rick to the outside of the precinct where Rick helped Casey into a cab and then smiled his way into the seat next to her. The cab stopped at Casey's apartment and Rick again tagged along. Before they disappeared into the building Munch jumped out of his car and knocked on the glass doors, "Casey. Casey wait!"
Casey poked her head around Rick and saw John standing on the other side of the door. "John? What are you doing here?"
"I…" He had no idea what to say. "I…wanted to tell you that we need you back at the precinct. There's new information on the case I was telling you about earlier."
Casey slapped her brief case on the side of her leg. "John, I told you I want nothing to do with that case."
"Casey, it's only about the rape victim and a new witness. I promise not to bother you about the other parts."
She looked at her watch and groaned. "Do you have the witness there right now?"
"No, but the information we have is critical."
"John, unless the victim is alive and being held captive it can wait until tomorrow."
John stuttered and Casey took that as a ticket to her couch. She turned around and waved. "Good night John. Go get some sleep you look like hell."
Casey and Rick got into the elevator and Rick gave him a little smile and waved.
John hunched over and rubbed his face. "Damn it."
Scene
Elliot and Olivia sped home and ripped open the door. They booted their computer, googled their names, and found…nothing. Olivia pounded on the desk. "This can't be right."
Elliot nudged her to the side and clicked to the white pages. Hundreds of Stablers and Bensons came up. "This could take awhile."
Olivia placed her head on one hand and looked at her wristwatch. "It's midnight. Let's call the west coast first."
She went to reach for the phone but Elliot stopped her. "Liv, lets just go to bed and start tomorrow."
"Why?"
"Because you're going to stress yourself out. One day isn't going to hurt us. I'll print the pages and we'll be ready to start early tomorrow. Ok?"
She rubbed her forehead and gave in. "Alright." Elliot pressed print and followed her to the bathroom.
The usual routine of toothpaste and brush strokes began. Olivia looked into the mirror as Elliot spit into the sink. The terribly tedious sounds of brushing and gurgling took place in the human existence of heroic detectives such as these. Olivia often wondered if every couple did the same thing. "Are we unique? And if we're not, does it matter?" Olivia thought. Elliot looked at her and raised his eyebrows up and down like a goofy clown would. Olivia didn't smile though. She just starred at him in with a serious disposition.
Through the brush and the paste Elliot spoke and tiny dots flew onto the mirror. "What?"
She rinsed and opened her mouth to look inside. "Isn't if funny how we have to do such ridiculous things to kept ourselves healthy? I mean, don't you find that maybe these routines are a flaw in the system somewhere?"
Elliot gurgled and spat. "Maybe. It's not like you can change it now."
She thought about it and turned to the door. "True, but if teeth are a necessity then why do they fall out? It's not like my arm is going to fall off if I don't wash it. I mean, how does one lose a memory? It's not like I miss placed it."
They sat on their sides of the bed. Elliot was once again in his underwear. "You're being awfully philosophical Ms. Benson. I wish I could answer your questions, but I'm afraid you'll have to take it up with the big guy in your next life."
Olivia through on a T-shirt and pulled the covers up to her chin. "I suppose." She looked at him and sighed. "Well, Goodnight."
Elliot turned off the lamp and kissed her on the forehead. "Good night, Liv."
They lay in bed listening to the crickets. Elliot held her and placed his hand on her tummy. Olivia was stuck on her home sick thoughts. She was pondered how she could miss a place that she could even see or remember. Her dreams would take her there briefly, but it wasn't enough to fill the yearning warmth of a familiar environment. She pulled Elliot's arm around her tightly and clenched her eyes shut to numb the thoughts away from her mind.
Scene
Melinda's eye grew big as she looked into the microscope. "It's awfully similar, but I won't be able to tell until the charts come out of development."
She ripped her gloves off and looked at Fin. "Might as well make yourself at home. It's gonna take a good twenty minutes to process."
Fin sat in a tiny chair and cracked his neck. "Hope I didn't mess up any big plans for your evening. I really do appreciate this."
"Oh, I missed the end of ER, but my daughter taped it so it's really not a big deal."
"How old is she now?"
"Sweet sixteen."
"My son's in college. I don't know if you ever met him. He comes around every now and again."
She poured herself a cup of coffee and offered him a cup as well. "Shelly is learning how to drive." Her eyes grew big and she shook her head at the thought of her baby driving.
"Yeah that's always frightening. As soon as you think they're going to make it through high school they bring home that driver's booklet and all of the fears return in a whole new form."
Melinda laughed. "Yeah, you're telling me."
Fin smiled. "How's your husband?"
She looked down at her bare hand and grabbed her wrist. "David and I are separated. He signed the divorce papers last month."
"Oh, man, I'm sorry. I didn't know."
"It's fine. We've had problems for years. I'm kind of relieved to actually say it out loud." The sound of a buzzer went off. "That was fast."
"Time flies when you're having fun." Fin jabbed.
Melinda placed the DNA charts from Rick's mug next to the charts from the urine sample they found at Olivia's apartment. After a few seconds of examination Melinda pulled off her glasses and stated, "It's a match. You got your perp."
"Melinda! Thank you! You are the best!" Fin patted her on the back and grabbed his phone to call Munch. "Munch, get Rick to the precinct. I'm with Melinda and she's just confirmed that he's our man with the golden stream."
Scene
Elliot dialed endless numbers. "Hi, I'm looking for Elliot Stabler. Do you know him?"
Over and over it went. Some people wanted to tell him about their whole family and others just thought he was crazy. None of them were good leads.
Around noon Olivia opened the front door. She had just gotten back from the doctors office. Elliot stood up and watched her close the door slowly behind her. "Well?"
She dropped her purse and smiled a little. "I'm going to be a mom."
Elliot walked towards her and touched her tummy. "You're going to be a mom." He lifted her off the ground and held her while talking to her stomach. "Did you hear that little slugger? You're going to have a mom. And she's the best mom in the whole wide world."
Olivia laughed as he spun her around. "Elliot, you're crazy. Kiss me."
He put her on the ground and pulled her close to him. He leaned his head to the right just as she leaned hers to the left. Then they tried to switch sides and bumped heads. They both pulled their heads back and laughed a little. He cupped her face with his hand and gently kissed her lips. She got close to his face and softly said, "Elliot Stabler I want you."
He lifted her from the ground and took her to the bedroom. She knelt on the bed looking at him. He had a stupid grin on his face. In a low sarcastic voice she said, "Sarah, told me that if I held out on you for at least two weeks you would burst."
She pulled her shirt off and undid her bra. She was as hard as he was. Elliot took in all of her body like it was the first time he had seen it. "I'll only burst if I can do it in you."
She placed his hands on her chest "She also said that in order to truly please you I would have to read the book."
She leaned in to gently kiss his lips. Through the kiss he replied, "Sarah's a moron. The only thing I want you to read are my lips." He slid his tongue inside of her mouth.
Olivia laughed and pulled his shirt off. "I have to admit that you're construction work has really paid off."
He smiled, "You're a bad girl, Olivia Benson. I should have kissed you weeks ago."
"Shut up and kiss me again." She said as he slid his hand down her smooth back.
He kissed her into a lay down position and traced her body with his tongue. He gently kissed her stomach and kept on going until she was wiggling and moaning with pleasure. She pulled him to her face and took him inside of her. The sensation caused Olivia to shake as he forced himself in and out of her. His chiseled face and soft eyes were inches from hers. His focus on her eyes staggered as his arousal brought him to an explosive climax. Through his gasps of air he smiled and said, "You're an official MILF."
She let out a low sultry laugh "And you're an official old man that got lucky."
With a melodramatic bounce to the bed, Elliot fell sideways and held his heart as if he had been shot. "Ooww that hurt. Maybe next time I'll bring the viagra. I'll give it to you all day and night."
"You're gonna give my baby brain damage."
"Are you saying my dick's big?"
She playfully slapped him. "Are you asking because you're unsure?"
"Shut up and kiss me woman."
Olivia pushed his head down and smoldered his lips with an exaggerated lip lock. He tickled her until she squirmed away and they lay breathless on the bed. Olivia played with his hand. "Did you have any luck with the phone numbers?"
"No, but now that you're home I have a feeling in the pits of my stomach that we're going to get something."
"Are you sure that's not just gas?"
He sat up and chased her into the living room where they sat at the dining room table laughing away some of their excited energy and stretching their button dialing fingers.
Scene
Casey was in the middle of straddling Rick when Munch knocked on the door. Rick kissed her neck and smoothly said, "Ignore it."
The knocking grew louder. "Casey, it's John. I need to speak to you right now. Are you in there?"
Casey let out a groan. "John, I told you to leave." She threw on a shirt and opened the door.
John stood on the other side with his droopy puppy dog face, "Captain's orders Casey I'm sorry. Rick, they need you at the precinct."
Rick walked to the living room with his shirt off. "Who needs me?"
"The Captain and a crew of Federal Agents."
Casey pulled John towards her kitchen. "This better be for real. If I find out you're doing this to ruin my night or because you have some theory that the mutants brainwashed you I will have you transferred."
"Casey, settle down. I swear, I was sent here by Cragen. Call him yourself." He held his phone out for Casey to use. She glared into his eyes and pushed him out of her way.
Scene
The awkward threesome marched into the squad room. Casey threw her purse on Elliot's empty desk as Cragen walked out of his office rubbing his eyes. "Evening Casey."
"This better be good." She hissed.
Cragen took Rick to an interrogation room and cuffed him. Rick was not happy about being tricked into this situation. "What are you doing?"
"Rick, you are under arrest for the rape and abduction of Lisa Fontin along with the abduction of Jeremy Wilkinson."
"What are you talking about? We closed that case months ago. The guy was charged and sentenced. Ask Alicia." Rick said with no worry or stress behind his words.
Cragen ignored his responses and turned to leave. Rick grabbed Cragen's arm and smiled at him. "Captain, this is a big misunderstanding. I'll answer any and all of the questions you want, but can you at least take the cuffs off?"
"Fraid I can't do that Rick. Special orders given to me by some of your friends."
On that note Carl Peterson and one of the head FBI agents working on the mutant cases walked in. "Thank you Don." said the tall bulky man.
"Anytime Daniel. You can take him from here."
Rick stood up with fear in his eyes. "Daniel? Carl? What are you doing here?"
"We're here to end this." Carl said in a soft-spoken voice.
"End it? I was just getting close to Henry. I almost had him."
Daniel grabbed him by the neck and forced him to the door. "Save it Palmer. We know who you've been working for. We can do this the hard way or the easy way."
Carl took out a syringe from his coat pocket. Rick flinched and tried to release himself from Daniel's grip. "No, I'll do what ever you want just don't do that. Please." Rick was fuming inside. The three men left the room. Carol was walking in front of Rick and Daniel was close behind him. Rick gritted his teeth while he elbowed Daniel in the side and punched him in the face. He then put his arms around Carl and chocked him. Carl tried to reach for the syringe while gasping for air. Rick smashed Carl's head into the wall and placed his hands near his temples.
Cragen was at his desk waiting for the Fed's to leave so that he could get a couple more hours of sleep before sunrise when a high pitched noise over came his hearing. He stood up and the room spun so badly that he fell to the ground. Casey, Munch and Fin were near the coffee machine fighting about the dangers of dating and sleeping around when they caught wind of the over powering vertigo that forced them to the floor.
Rick dashed for the stairwell and called his mutant team for back up.
Scene
Olivia dialed a number in Long Island. "Hi, I'm looking for Elliot Stabler. Can you help me find him?"
An older woman coughed on the other line. "My son doesn't live here anymore. You have the wrong number."
Olivia perked up. "Mrs. Stabler, don't hang up. Please, you said Elliot Stabler is your son. Can you help us find him?"
Elliot dropped the cell phone he was using. He grabbed the receiver from Olivia's hand. "Ma? It's Elliot, is that you?"
"Elliot, what's going on?"
"Ma, I have to get to your house, can you give me an address?"
"Why do you need an address? You grew up here. Are you feeling all right? Should I call your wife, Kathy?"
"No Ma, she's not my wife anymore. Listen I need your help. I need to get to your house. I'm going to be visiting you."
"Is this that television show where they trick people? I'm hanging up."
"No, don't hang up Ma. Ma!" Elliot looked at the receiver and placed it in it's cradle.
Olivia looked at him with an anxious fire in her eyes. "Well?"
"That was my ma. Pack your bags baby we're going to New York."
Olivia grabbed some clothes and stood in the middle of the room trying to decide what else to pack. Elliot walked by her with a toothbrush in his mouth and a pair of underwear in his hands. "What's wrong?"
"Well I'm trying to decide what to take, but besides some of the clothes I bought, none of this is mine."
Elliot paused and thought about it for a moment. "Baby doll you take whatever you want, but don't forget the gun."
She nodded and stuffed it in her bag. It was dark outside and they stood by the car waiting for Elliot to find the right keys. "Ah, here it is."
Just as he put the key in the lock Robert walked up the driveway with Sarah behind him. "Elliot, Olivia, what's the rush?"
Olivia looked at Elliot above the car. Her mouth dropped a little bit and her body tensed up like she was a deer caught in headlights. Elliot turned to Robert and smiled, "Robert. What brings you around this time of night?"
"Save the small talk El." Robert pulled out a gun and aimed it at Elliot. "Put the bag down and come with me."
Sarah shot a laser beam from her nails that hit Olivia's bag and made it fall to the ground. "Olivia, you can't leave. We have unfinished recipes to share. I can't wait to show you how hot it can get in my kitchen."
Elliot and Olivia walked into Robert and Sarah's living room. Robert pushed Elliot on the couch that had been covered with plastic. Olivia quickly sat next to him.
Robert sat in a kitchen chair across from the couch. He looked at the gun that he placed on the coffee table and made it float in the air next to Elliot's head. "I see your cerebral patterns are coming back. I knew that damn machine was worthless, but James wouldn't listen. He's convinced that he can bring equality into the world without a war. It's funny how liberals think that they can win with a heart of gold, but I gave that weak-minded philosophy up years ago. Lucky for me. Unlucky for you two."
Sarah entered the room with a hot pan of cookies in her hands. Just as she got to the door Bobby walked down the stairs rubbing his eyes. "Mommy? Mom."
Sarah stood in front of Olivia and turned over her shoulder. "Bobby go upstairs. I'll be up in a minute."
Robert dropped the gun to the floor and whispered to the humans on his couch. "One peep out of either of you and I'll make sure you're deaths are slow and painful."
"But mommy, there's a monster in my room."
"Bobby, do not come down here. Go to Mommy's room. I'll be up in five minutes." The pan in Sarah's hand was so hot that it was glowing orange and the cookies on it were starting to burn.
Olivia glanced at Elliot and directed her eyes to the gun near his foot.
Bobby gave a little cry but turned around and disappeared down the hallway.
Olivia kicked the cookie tray into Sarah's face and she screamed in pain. At the same time Elliot grabbed the gun and shot it at Robert. Robert stopped the bullet with his mind and yelled at Sarah. "Sarah you ignorant ass. I told you those kids were a burden."
Elliot pulled the coffee table up and threw it at Robert.
Sarah was blinded by the burns on her face but she shot lasers around the room while screaming, "Shut up Robert! We needed the money. If you weren't such a prick we could have lived with out them. Ahhhhhhh!" She flailed her arms around and a laser shot Robert in the thigh. He groaned and fell to his side.
Olivia ducked behind the couch and Elliot held a tin tray in front of his body reflecting the beams in opposite directions. Sarah paused and stood in the living room screaming. Olivia took a nearby lamp and smashed it on Sarah's head causing her screams to abruptly stop with a gurgle and a thud.
Elliot punched Robert in the face a couple of times and kneed him in the crouch. Robert was on the floor holding his groin. Elliot got in his face. "It's too bad I'm a liberal Robert, because I'm really in the mood to use this gun. Just to piss you off, I'm going to be rebellious and creatively use the end that never gets enough credit." Elliot smashed the butt of the gun over Robert's head and his body fell to the floor. "Conservative shit ass."
Olivia grabbed Elliot's arm to bring him out of his angry trance. Elliot followed and made sure to kick Robert one last time before heading towards the door. They both stopped to see Bobby and Jennifer standing on the steps in shock. Olivia headed for the stairs.
"Kids, I'm not going to hurt you. I'm here to help."
Elliot stopped her and spoke to her in a low voice. "Liv, what are you doing?"
"We can't leave them here by themselves."
"We can call the cops or something, but we can't take them with us. I'm sure there are laws about people taking children from the people they just beat the shit out of. That and they'll slow us down."
Jennifer stood up with Bobby clinging to her leg. "Did the bad people hurt my parents?"
Olivia looked up at her from the bottom of the stairs. "Jennifer, what did you see?"
"I saw the lasers and the coffee table. Are the bad men gone?"
Olivia let out all of her breath and got closer to them. "Yes, the bad men are gone. We have to get out of here though. Give me your hands and I promise you I'll keep you safe."
Olivia grabbed Bobby who started to hysterically cry. "Bobby, I'm not going to hurt you. We're going to go on an adventure."
"I want my mommy."
Olivia held him as he squirmed in her arms. "I know you do honey. Listen to me, I want both of you to close your eyes and when we get out of the house we're going to go on an adventure to New York City."
Bobby sniffed a little. "Is my mommy going to be there?"
"Maybe. Jennifer, take my hand and close your eyes."
Elliot ran outside to get the car. He started the engine and backed out of the driveway with speed and fury leaving black lines on the pavement.
Olivia held Bobby and walked Jennifer to the car.
Ten minutes later all four of them were driving down the highway to Indiana. It took Bobby a few minutes to stop crying, but he finally passed out. Jennifer sat quietly taking in information with her eyes closed. When all was quiet Elliot reached over and touched Olivia's hand. She gave him a concerned look and glanced behind them to make sure they weren't being followed. The dark highway was a far cry from home, but they sat in the front seat longing for its' answers.
