Chapter 3
*Previously: A few minutes later Olivia reentered and sat down next to Elliot. "Sorry about that, its just the rose.just." Olivia trailed off. "Just what?" Elliot asked gently. "There's a reason why I acted the way I did at the crime scene." Olivia sighed. "It's just that someone, another or the same perp, raped me and raped and killed my mother." Her voice had dropped down to a whisper. "Do you know who it was?" Olivia nodded and whispered, "my father" *
"Your father?" Elliot repeated.
"Uh huh. And the rose was his sign that he had been there." Olivia had started to cry quietly.
Elliot pulled her into his arms and let her cry. Munch, Fin and Cragen came up, saw them, then disappeared.
"Liv?"
"Yeah, Elliot?"
"You don't think your father could have done this, do you? I mean, he went to prison, right?"
"Yeah, but this happened when I was 15." Olivia said looking up at him.
"27 years ago."
"He was sentenced for 25 years for rape in the 1st degree, 2 charges, and murder in the first degree, also 1st degree."
"That's kind of short for 3 felony charges."
"Well, his lawyer got him a bargain for 25 years and the rapes as one charge. So he has only 2 felony charges." Olivia explained.
"He could have done this." Elliot whispered.
"Yes. He could have. I have to go tell Captain Cragen. Come ON Elliot. You're coming with me." Olivia said, grabbing his hand and pulling him off the sofa.
They went down to Cragen's office.
"I see you're better, Olivia" Cragen said, looking up briefly. "She has something to tell you, brace yourself." Elliot warned. Cragen looked up.
"I know who the perp is."
"Who?"
"My father."
"Your father?" he repeated.
"What is with people? They keep repeating that."
"Sorry. Do you want me to send Munch and Fin to arrest him, if its too painful for you?"
"No. I will. I want to see the look on his face when he realizes his own daughter is arresting his ass."
"Okay."
Olivia left. Cragen stopped Elliot.
"Keep and eye on her, will you?"
"Sure, cap."
"Alright. You better get going, knowing Olivia, she already has the address and halfway there."
"Yeah." Elliot replied, hurrying out.
Captain Cragen was right. Olivia was already outside the precinct and getting into the elevator. Elliot ran to catch up, just catching her.
"Are you sure you're up to this?"
"Yeah. I'm sure. Lets go." Olivia said, catching her breath, as the doors slid shut.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They approached the rundown apartment building, about 15 minutes later, and Olivia gasped.
"What? What is it?" Elliot asked.
"This. This is where it happened." "You lived here?"
"No, my parents had divorced when I was 11 and my father lived here, before he was arrested. This is where I was raped."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
They got out of Elliot's black Ford Malibu, guns drawn, and to the front. Olivia looked at the tenant listing and next to her fathers name, apartment 5B.
"Lets go" Olivia said, pressing all the buttons and seeing the door open. "Everyone expects someone, so the trick is finding out who."
"So you press all the buttons?"
"Bingo."
They entered and went straight up to 5B. What they saw, caught them both off guard.
A/N: What do you think? Review please. And stay tuned for chapter 4. =D
