Every time I start out writing I have to take, at least, ten minutes to work out which story I'm going to continue with, I have that many on the go, but oh well I live to write!

Okay so now I've decided, here goes…

Disclaimer: I wish I owned them. I'd be rolling in the money instead of having an empty purse.

Chapter 21

Olivia was suddenly awakened by a bang. She looked at Kate, she was still sleeping. She carefully got up off the cot. She pulled the blanket up and tucked it under Kate's body to keep her warm.

She walked over to the door and backed out as she closed the door as quietly as she could. She figured Elliot hadn't found his file and had got pissed and started throwing things around the room.

Sloane suddenly grabbed her shoulders causing her to scream in shock. He slammed her against the wall and pushed his front up against her back, pinning her against the wall. He put his hand over her mouth.

"Don't try anything funny. Your partner did and it got him shot." Sloane said through gritted teeth, his face was right next to hers and she could feel his breath on her neck.

Olivia looked down into the squad room. She could just see the lower half of Elliot's body and blood. "No Elliot…" She said. Her cries were muffled by Sloane's hand that was still covering her mouth.

She pushed back off the wall and Sloane was forced to let go of her. She turned around to hit him, but he was too quick and hit her on the head with the butt of the gun, she stumbled back and went tumbling down the stairs.

Sloane casually walked down them after her. Olivia pushed herself up off the floor and started to limp over to Elliot but Sloane quickly grabbed a hold of her. With one arm around her waist, he knocked everything of her desk and Elliot's desk onto the floor using the other.

Their computers both sparked then began to smoke. Sloane picked Olivia up in one arm and slammed her down on the desks, quickly pinning her arms down above her head with one hand. He held the gun against her neck.

"You never listen do you? Well, I'm afraid I don't need a bad example like you, raising my daughter. I won't let your bad habits taint her Olivia." Sloane said as his body pressed against hers.

"I'm a fair man though Olivia and I am willing to give you another chance. What do you think maybe we could try for another baby, I think Kate would love a brother." He said.

He tucked the gun into the back of his pants then let go of her wrists, he grabbed her thighs and pulled them up to wrap around his waist, forcing himself in between her legs at the edge of the desk.

Olivia sat up and thrust the palm of her hand into his nose. He fell back on the floor right on his ass. Olivia jumped off the desk and kicked him in the face. He fell flat onto his back. She pulled her cuffs out and put one around his wrist and fastened the other around the leg of Fin's desk.

She got up and looked over at the cribs thankful that Kate hadn't come out from there yet. As she walked over to Elliot, there was another loud bang and pain ripped through her arm.

She fell to the floor clutching her arm. The bullet was lodged somewhere in her arm and it hurt like hell. She'd fallen with Sloane's reach and he quickly pulled the keys out of her pocket and unclipped the cuffs.

He stood up and pointed the gun down at her. "You stupid bitch, I could have given you everything. There's not a day that's gone by when I haven't thought about you." Sloane told her as he pointed the gun right at her face.

Kate came out of the cribs having heard all the noise. She saw Sloane stood pointing the gun at Olivia. "NO!" She yelled as she ran down the stairs.

She ran straight over to Sloane and grabbed his arm. "Please don't hurt her. I'll do anything I…I'll go with you, just please don't hurt her." Kate begged.

Olivia looked around, she was expecting help, but the precinct seemed deserted and Sloane had took the time to lock the surrounding doors of the squad room. "Go back upstairs Kate!" Sloane yelled at her.

"No. Leave her alone." Kate yelled as she kicked him in the leg.

He roared in pain then swung his arm round, hitting Kate with the butt of the gun and sending her crashing to the floor unconscious. "No." Olivia screamed as she jumped up and tackled Sloane to the floor.

Sloane was easily able to flip her and was quickly on top of her holding the gun against her chest, her arms where trapped beneath his body and there was nothing she could do but squirm underneath him. "Say hello to Serena for me." Sloane said as he tightened his grip on the gun.

He leant down and kissed her on the lips, she wanted to throw up into his mouth.

'Bang'

Olivia's whole body jerked. She opened her eyes and waited for pain, but none came, no more anyway. Sloane opened his mouth to say something to her but he just dribbled blood onto her face.

She quickly squirmed her way from underneath him, feeling sick. She looked up to see Elliot stood holding one hand over his stomach, she could see blood seeping through his fingers. He was holding his gun in his other hand. She looked back at Sloane there was a growing blood stain seeping through his jacket.

She used her sleeve to wipe the blood off her face then she just sat there for a moment, shaking all over. Elliot threw his gun down on his desk and reached his hand out to help her up.

She got to her feet then hugged him for a moment. "Oh my god, I thought you were dead. Are you okay?" She said sounding as shaky as her body was.

"I'm fine." Elliot said, sitting down on the edge of his desk.

Olivia ran over to Kate as best she could. "Kate sweetheart can you hear me." She said.

Kate scrunched her eyes together then slowly raised her hand to her head. "Ouch." She said, referring to the small gash on her head. She tried to sit up, but found it just made her dizzy. "Sweetheart, you should stay lying down just in case you have a spinal injury." Olivia warned her.

Kate continued sitting up. "I haven't but I will do if I stay down here." She used the edge of Olivia's desk to pull herself up off the floor, immediately flopping into Olivia's chair once she was up. She looked down at Sloane's body. "Baby don't look." Olivia said, pulling her into a hug that meant she couldn't see.

"It's okay." Kate said. Sloane had never been anything more than some evil man who happened to be in her life because he had forced himself on Olivia and now wouldn't leave them alone.

Olivia pulled away and stroked her face. "Are you okay?" Olivia checked. Kate just nodded and smiled. Olivia walked over to Elliot, who was still perched on his desk. She moved his bloodied hand away from his wound and pushed her own hand over the wound, holding his shoulder firmly so he couldn't move back.

Elliot winced and cursed under his breath. "You have to add pressure to the wound." Kate said. Both Elliot and Olivia looked at her. "Or so I've heard." She said holding the gash on her head as well as rubbing the back of her head where she had smacked it against the hard floor.

Suddenly the doors burst open and Cragen and a bunch of other cops came in, pointing their guns. Olivia, Kate and Elliot all turned to look at them.

Cragen signalled for them all to lower their weapons. "I go out for some food and this happens." Cragen said looking at his trashed squad room. "Call for a bus now" He said to the officers. "Make it three buses and a coroner." He concluded looking at Sloane and the others.

Cragen walked over to Kate and crouched down in front of her so he could look at the cut on her head. "I'm fine." Kate told him.

"Honey this is quite deep." He said as he studied the gash.

"I'm fine really. I don't need to go to hospital." Kate protested.

"Like mother like daughter." Cragen said looking at Olivia.

He got up and walked over to them. He brushed Olivia's hair back to find a gash on her head, hid beneath her hair. The only give away was the blood in her hair and trailing down below her ear. "I'm fine Cap." She said.

Cragen wasn't convinced. He could see Elliot's injury straight away. "Can we please tell that bus to hurry it up and can someone please cover him up." Cragen ordered. He was looking at Kate as he said the last part, she was just staring at Sloane's lifeless body.

She was waiting for him to jump up and try to shoot them all or something. She had seen dead bodies before, living on the streets and sleeping in some of the places she had, most mornings you'd wake up next to a dead body. An officer suddenly threw a blanket over him and Kate was forced to look away.

"Kate why don't you go sit in my office. It's quieter in there, plus there's a tub of strawberry twizzlers with your name on it." Cragen said, smiling. He considered Olivia, Elliot, Fin, and even Munch as his children, at least they may as well be, he shouted at them like a parent, praised them when they did something good and got a good result on a case and was there for them when they needed him and worried about them, and therefore he thought of Kate as a grandchild.

Kate nodded and walked past them and went into Cragen's office. Olivia hung her head and let out a sigh and the tears she had been holding in. Elliot put his arm around her neck and pulled her closer to him. He kissed her head and held her tight. "It's okay. It's over now." He told her.

Cragen looked on at his two best Detectives, thanking God it had gone this way and it wasn't either or both of them or Kate lying on the floor under a blanket.

And no cliff-hanger, aren't I kind?
