Title: The strength of a little girl

A/N: when it starts its still in the past. Oh and I've never had anyone faint so I don't know if that's what you do but it is today and I don't know if there's a Miracle Hospital in Kansas City but hey it is now/

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Allison didn't hear the door open, as she started to collapse. Rick ran into the living room when he heard something hit the floor. It was clear to Rick she had fainted, he carried her over to the couch and wet a washcloth with cool water and began dabbing her forehead and neck. She began to wake moments later; she was groggy and wasn't quite sure where she was at first. "Are you ok?" Rick asked with a sweet smile. "Yeah, Yeah I'm fine" she replied sitting up and rubbing the back of her head were she hit it on the floor.

"What happened?"

"I came home from school, and I was going to my room when I heard the phone ring, I thought it was mom. When I answered it I heard a woman say that the plane mom was on had crashed. And the next thing I remember after that was waking up over here." said Allison as she went to hang the receiver up.

"Is she..alive?" asked Rick hesitantly.

"Um..They didn't say, all I heard was they crashed, I didn't here anything after that. Is there anyway to find out?" Rick nodded to the receiver she still had in her hand. She put the phone to her ear and said hello. To her surprise the lady was still there. *I guess she used to this reaction* she thought. "Um..Yes this is Allison again. Were there survivors?" her voice was unsteady and hopeful. "Yes, there were only 8 fatalities so far." the young lady on the other line replied. Allison let out the breathe she was holding.

"What hospital did they take the victims to?"

"A hospital in Kansas, Miracle Hospital in Kansas city" said the women in a sweet tone.

"OK thank you. Thank you Very much. Have a nice day" said Allison hanging up the phone. She turned to face Rick. He was standing there looking back at her. He was leaning on the back of the couch for support. "We have to go to Kansas." she said simply and left as Rick nodded. In a matter of minutes they both were packed and ready to leave. Allison had a small duffle bag filled with clothes and a book. Rick had a even smaller backpack with a few clothes and a lunch he packed for Allison to eat on the way, because he was sure she wouldn't want to stop to eat.

SEVERAL HOURS LATER

Rick pulled up to the hospital and awoke the sleeping girl in the passenger seat. When she was awake enough to walk they went to the nurses station.
"Hello, My name is Rick Jerret. Is there a Stephanie Jerret here? There was a plane crash and the lady said the survivors were brought here." The nurse typed at her computer like mad.

"Yes there was a Stephanie Jerret admitted at 1800 (6:00) last night. She's still in the ER though. They were pretty beat up, you'll have to wait until they let her go to recovery." said the nurse giving them papers to fill out "Are you her husband?"

"What,? Oh no I'm her brother, and this is her daughter Allison" Allison offered a weak smile. As she and Rick headed over to the waiting area.
"She's been in the E.R. for a long time. Over four hours." she said starting to feel nauseous. She laid out on the chairs.

"No, she was in recovery for a couple of hours, but one of the large cuts broke open and they had to go and re-stitch it."
"oh" came a sleepy reply. *That girl can sleep anywhere.* Rick thought. He looked at the sleeping girl then soon drifted into a light restless sleep.

A young female doctor gently shook the middle aged man awake. "Sir, I'm sorry to tell you, your sister didn't make it. One of the larger wounds was infected and it sped up her heart. I'm sorry." Rick's heart skipped a beat, but he pulled himself together long enough to give a reply.
"Thank you doctor I'm sure you did everything possible." he stuck out his hand and the nurse did the same then gave a sympathetic smile, turned and left. All Rick could think about was how he was going to tell Allison. He made his way slowly towards the other bench. He squatted down and pushed a stray hair on her head away. She stirred and turned towards him, her eyes alert. "is my mom ok?" she asked sitting up.

"Um..Allie" he began uncomfortably. "your mom didn't make it, the wounds got infected. The doctors did everything they could." Allison felt ill. But that didn't stop her

"THE HELL THEY DID THEY DIDN'T TRY TO SAVE HER ANYMORE THAN I TRY IN GYM CLASS!" she started screaming and running to the nurses station. Rick had caught up to her, and pulled her into a hug. "LET GO OF ME! YOU'RE A LIAR! DON'T TOUCH ME! LEAVE ME ALONE!" but it wasn't long before she found herself crying in his arms.
PRESENT

Ever since her mom died Allison has been determined to be completely independent. She excluded herself from the outside world. She spent her time locked in her room reading. She kept her grades up thought, that's what her mom would have wanted. She became very defensive when someone tried to help her do anything.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Allison was going up to bed, she had been living with her uncle since the crash. He started working the night shift at the diner. He left at 11:00 and returned at 7:00 A.M. She went into the living room to give him a hug goodnight. "Goodnight" he said with a smile. And the headed upstairs to her room. She got into her pajamas and said her prayers, brushed her teeth and cuddled into bed. She was asleep within minutes.

Several hours passed when she was awoken by someone covering her mouth. "Can you be a real good girl for me?" asked a voice she knew by heart. She nodded as tears flowed down her cheeks. Then it happened. When he was done, he left. She heard the car start and then fade into the distance. She didn't know what to do, but finally she tried to get out of bed to go to the phone. When she moved the pain was so intense that she doubled over and started to cry. But she sucked it up enough to get to the phone. She dialed the numbers her mother had told her to call if she ever needed help.

"911 What's your emergency?"

"Um…I was raped." Allison said moving slowly over to the door to check the lock on the door. It was locked. The pain would not go away it made her want to cry again.

Very soon she heard knocks on the door, when she went to open it she dropped to her knees from the pain. But she got there, unlocked the door, and looked out at a female detective with short hair and a badge. Allison motioned for her to come in.

"Hello, My name is Olivia Benson." she said looking at the girl in front of her.

"Um…Hi, I'm Allison Jerret, you can call me Allie." Allison said offering a weak hand for her to shake.

"Allie, can I take you to the hospital?" Olivia asked. They both knew it's something that had to be done but Olivia wanted to ask rather than tell. Allison nodded.

"Fine, if that's what I have to do." she said looking at the door past Olivia.

"Allison, I want you to understand something right now, you don't have to do anything you don't want to. But if you want to catch him you need to tell us everything you remember." Allison nodded once again as she and Olivia walked to the car. Allison had trouble walking and Olivia tried to put her arm around her for support. She shook it off "I can do it myself!" Allison climbed in the back seat because she saw a guy in the drivers side of the car. Olivia turned around and introduced Allison and Elliot. They arrived at hospital and Allison walked up to the door Olivia was right on her heels. "I'VE TOLD YOU BEFORE I CAN DO THINGS BY MYSELF." Allison snapped as Olivia started to say something. "Just wait in the car with your partner. What's his name..Elliot."

"Allie, I have to come, but you don't have to talk right now if you don't want to."
"Fine" They continued into the hospital. Olivia said that Allison could sit down for a little while because she look like she was in real pain. She continued to the nurses station, introduced herself and showed her badge. "I need a rape kit done." The nurse nodded and called a doctor. In about an hour it was all done and they headed to the station.

"Allie, tell us everything about tonight." Olivia said folding her hands on the metal table in the interrogation room.

"ok, it was about 10 when I went to bed. I went to the living room to say goodnight to Rick.."

"who's Rick?" asked Elliot sitting down.

"My uncle."

"Where was your uncle when all this was happening?" Elliot asked standing up again.

"He works the night shift at 'Mario's', but when I called they said he never showed up. Ok so I went to say goodnight to him, I went upstairs and went through the usual routine, I put my pajamas on, brushed my teeth, said my prayers, and went to bed. When I woke up again there was a hand on my mouth. He said 'Can you be a real good girl for me?' I nodded. Then he did it. When he was done he got in his car and left. I don't know where that might be." said Allison she wanted to cry but she couldn't.

"Allie, did you know the man who did this?" Allison nodded

"I thought I did"
"Who was it." asked Olivia in a gentle voice.

"My father"
