A/N- Sorry this chapter took so long, it took a while to think of what to happen next. Anyway thanx so much for your reviews I appreciate them ALL.


Nothing. It was empty, everywhere, everything… was gone. The only thing that was left was the sun's dim light shinning through a small window in the now empty apartment. She couldn't believe it for a second, she had to make sure this was real. In her moment of denial she silently shacked her head, "No, no, no…" she whispered. She sprinted though the apartment shouting his mane at the top of her lungs, "Elliot! Elliot!" She looked everywhere, frantically running into every room.

When she finally realized that he was gone, she found herself where she started in the middle of the living room with the small, fragile window as her only source of light. Maybe she was still in a dream, if so she would probably wake up in a second or two, but she didn't. And what came next truly proved that this was real, tears. They slowly pored from her eyes like the acid rain it was. She didn't know what to do next, what really came next? So she did the only thing she could, she broke down. Literally. Her feet buckled under her, sending her falling to the ground. "Where the hell are you Elliot…" she whispered, letting the word hang in the air with an eerie silence following.

But what she found on the ground only scared her more, that her horrendous suspicions were coming true. A small note she hadn't noticed before, lying right next to her written neatly in a familiar red pen.

He's gone and I have him.

Said the note in a simply wicked manner that you could practically sense the evil coming off of it. She didn't know what to do with herself next. So she cried. For about another good half hour, before her cell phone went off with a startlingly loud ring. She looked at the front screen, it was the captain. How long had she been there? She took a few calming breaths and then with her police instincts kicking in she answers the phone with a firm, "Benson."

Instantaneously her bosses voice was booming over the phone, "Where in God's name are you and Elliot, Olivia? I had to send Munch and Fin to check on the crime scene!" he shouted, obviously very mad.

Olivia sighed deeply, still in shock from Elliot's disappearance, "We have a problem Captain."

Olivia gave an exasperated sigh as she leaned up against the front doors frame, her arms crossed across her chest. There were crime scene investigators running around like mice in a maze all throughout his apartment. Elliot would have hated this.

She watched thoughtfully as a rather young investigator with glasses to big for any case, carefully picked up the wicked note and placed it in a bag marked 'Evidence one.' This had become an official police investigation, Elliot wasn't late to work anymore… he was missing. And right there and then Olivia silently swore that she would do anything to find him. Anything.

"Excuse me," said a high-pitched, nerdy voice from behind her.

She had been blocking the door way for a couple of minutes, "Um, do you need something sir?" Olivia asked curiously.

It was rather odd for the man to show up now, especially carrying a pizza and wherein the most bizarre pizza deliver outfit she had ever seen. "Yes," he said looking at his notepad, "I have a pizza here for a Elliot Stabler,"

"Pizza?" rather suspicious of the man at the moment.

"Yup," said the man confidentially, "A pizza delivery from Ma Ma Mia's Pizza Hut!" Waving his arms in different directions and happily jumping around.

At first Olivia thought the man might be crazy but then again, maybe he was paid to act like that. "Well, do you know who put in the order?" Olivia said reaching into her back pocket for a pen and pencil.

"Of course," he said quickly scrolling through his notepad, "An Olivia Benson, do you know her?" he asked.

Olivia instantaneously stopped writing, her pen falling to the ground. "Who...?" she asked quietly.

"Olivia Benson," he answered quite clearly.

"Oh," said Olivia thinking fast, "I can take the pizza for Elliot, he's not here right now." She said grabbing the pizza out of his hands.

She began walking back into the apartment, opening the box when she heard an obvious loud cough behind her from the pizza guy. She turned around to see him with an open palm in front of him, pointing to it, "Money," he said expectantly.

"Right," said Olivia quickly as she grabbed her wallet and hurriedly rummaged through it giving him a five-dollar bill. "Keep the change," she mumbled as she turned around to open the bow, with the pizza guy now already at the elevator when she felt a slight tap on her shoulder.

She sighed deeply, rolling her eyes, "What!" she said annoyed as she turned around only to find herself face to face with her boss.

"Olivia… are you ok?" he said shocked by her anxious attitude.

"Yeah," looking downward at the pizza box, "I was just about to open this box."

"You ordered pizza?" he asked confused, "At a time like this?"

"No of course not captain," She said calmly, launching into an explanation of how she got the pizza and what she had discovered before.

"Oh," he said finally trying to take it all in, "So you think whatever's in this pizza box will help us find Elliot?"

"Exactly," she clearly said, finally opening the pizza box to be greeted with more bad news.

Another red pen note.

I said I was running, but he wasn't coming. And after six years, he's all mine. So put your head on straight and you will see I'm as close as I can possibly be.

Olivia wanted to break down and cry again but she couldn't, not now, not here. She read the note over and over again, finally turning to her captain.

"What do you think this means?" Olivia asked fear quaking through her voice, despite her attempts to hide it.

Cragen stared down at the note in thoughtful concentration for a moment before softly whispering, "The enemy is among us…"

He turned around and silently walked away, internal affairs would want to get in on this now.


A/N- Anyway tell me if you find this chapter a little…boring… I tried to put a lot of emotion into it. Also please tell me if Olivia overeacted a little bit cause that would be good to know for future chapters.

As always please review!
