Author's notes:

I've done a last time because it would be easier to start. Shorty, WOW! Your review surprised me. I wouldn't say anything to give this chapter away, but I did leave it in a position that, well, people could presume that she committed suicide. Anyway back to the story.

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

Last time

The detectives entered the room. The walls where covered with pictures of boys. The room was a pig stye. They looked around before their eyes fell on Nicole.

Olivia and Elliot looked at the girl. She looked different from the 'Nicole' who ran into the squad room. She hair colour seemed to have changed and so did her eyes, in fact she looked totally different.

"Nicole, Nicole Ladger?" asked Elliot in disbelief.

"A huh… how can I help you?"

"Where were you two days ago?" asked Olivia with a frown on her face. She didn't get it. Could they have gotten the wrong girl?

"Two days ago… I was at home. Mum can tell you that. Why?" Nicole answered confused.

"You sure you weren't in the city?"

"Yeah……… I had homework to finish." Nicole was starting to get suspicious. What did she do? She didn't get it. She rarely went to the city and even when she did; it was always with her parents.

Olivia studied her a little harder. She was either a really good liar or telling the truth. She decided to give up.

"Okay, thanks." Olivia said, putting on a smile.

On they way out, they gave they thanks and apology to Mrs. Ladger. Once the detective left, Nicole ran out of her room and into the living room. She asked her mum

"What was that about?"

Mrs Ladger turned around. She shrugged. She didn't get it anymore then her daughter did.

"I asked them. They said 'everything's fine', that they made a mistake." Mrs Ladger looked at her daughter and then at her watch. "Is that the time? You better start setting the table. Dad's going to be home soon."

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

Everyone looked up as Elliot and Olivia entered the room. Their faces' looked disappointed.

"Didn't find her?" asked Cragen.

"Yeah we found her, except it wasn't her." Answered Olivia

"Well then who was it?" asked Munch, who didn't get it.

"Someone else. The girl who ran in here wasn't the girl that we just visited." Chipped in Elliot.

"So you're saying that the girl, who ran in, Nicole Ladger, isn't the Nicole Ladger who's on the system, right? So why isn't the girl, Nicole Ladger, in the system? You think she lied about her name?" said a very confused Munch.

"Looks like it." Said Olivia

"Well then people, what are we waiting for? Munch, Fin, go back to the newsagency, question the owner again. Olivia, Elliot I need you to finish this," said Cragen pointing at a large pile of documents

Munch groaned. He followed Fin out the door. Olivia and Elliot sat down and started working on the documents.

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

Fin and Munch pushed open the door of the newsagency and walked up the counter. The owner looked surprised so see Munch again.

"What do you want this time? Nicole didn't do anything." The owner said, wishing that Munch would leave.

"WE want to ask you a few more question coz you lied. We know Nicole's last name isn't Ladger, so why don't you tell us what it is so we can leave."

"I didn't lie. That's her name. You can ask her that. Her surname is Ladger. You can check it up. I don't' like about that stuff anyway why would I lie about something like that?"

"Coz you covering something up. We checked and her name's not Nicole Ladger." Fin said with a pissed off look on his face.

"You mean her names not Nicole Ladger."

"Wow I think he's actually getting it!" said Munch sarcastically to Fin then turned around at Mr Poldfera, "yeah Einstein, her name isn't Nicole Ladger."

"Well then I don't know her name. If I get it I'll call you, okay?"

"Yeah here's my card," said Fin

Mr Poldfera nodded and Fin and Munch headed out of the store.

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

16th precinct

"Her boss doesn't know her name. He still thinks its Nicole Ladger,'' announced Munch as he and Fin enter the room.

"Well then get her in here, again, you two go find her " Said Cragen.

They both nodded and left.

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

The girl (a.k.a Nicole) walked down the street to get to the Newsagency, like any other Thursday to start work. She thought of how lucky she was to have this job, especially being who she is. She sighed and then walked into the Newsagency.

She looked towards the counter. Mr Poldfera looked angry.

"HOW COULD YOU LIE TO ME? I GAVE YOU A JOB AND YOU WOULDN'T EVEN TELL ME YOU REAL NAME!!" Mr Poldfera shouted.

Nicole looked at him. Her eyes widened. Little did she and Mr Poldfera notice that everyone in the shop was staring at them.

"I didn't lie to you."

"YES YOU DID. THE COPS CAME IN TWICE THEY SAID YOU NAME ISN'T NICOLE LAGDER!"

Nicole looked scared, guilty and scared. "I didn't…"

"I don't want to hear it, whatever your name is. You're fired!" Said Mr Poldfera, calming down a bit.

Nicole opened her mouth to argue but realized it was pointless. She closed and walked out the door.

Once outside she didn't know where to go. She needed a job so survive but where could she get one. Everyone in this neighbourhood would soon know that she lied. Then it struck her, it was the cop's fault that she lost her job. She turned left and started jogging.

She reached the precinct and looked at it. She took a deep breathe and walked in.

Inside the squad room it was pretty empty. She looked around and couldn't see any of the officers that she knew. Then she heard a familiar voice say, "Can I help you?"

She turned around to see four cops looking at her. She recognized two of them, Benson and Stabler, but wasn't sure who the other two were. They all seemed to recognize her.

"We need to talk." Said Stabler.

The girl crossed her arms and said "Yeah we need to talk! You have no right to tell my boss to fire me. Why did you have to stick your big, fat, noses into my personal life?"

She was fuming.

"Well you lied!" Fin pointed out.

"Said who!"

"Your name isn't Nicole Ladger, we know that. So why don't we go somewhere else and talk." Said Munch.

"Fine, but I'm not going to tell you anything!"
