"Where did you go?" Munch asked holding Lyndsay in his lap.

"Just ot check on Iris and Toby." Munch nodded in understandment. Fin looked down at Lyndsay.

"Hey, how you holdin' up?"

"I'm good." she smiled at Munch and then at Fin.

"Ready to go?" Fin asked Munch.

"Yep, I want this dirtbag nailed." his head motioned to the janitor in the back.

"What about her, where's she gonna sit?" Fin pointed to Lyndsay.

"She's stayin' here, we'll get her tomorrow when we see Amanda's parents." Lyndsay flashed him a smile and got off of Munch's lap.

"See ya later guys." she said as she started walking down the street.

"Ummm, no actually you'll see Detectives Benson and Stabler tomorrow." John yelled. She turned around and nodded.

Munch and Fin walked in with the perp and Elliot and Olivia look up from paperwork.

"The perp?" the both ask at the same time.

"Guys meet Marlon Denroker, he knows where Amanda is." Fin announced.

"Perfect, I'll go tell Dria, and her spirits will be raised!" Olivia ran up to the crib to tell Dria the good news.

Olivia walked into the crib to see Dria fast asleep.

"Dria, sweetheart, wake up, come on I've got great news!" Dria turned around and looked at Olivia with sleepy eyes.

"Did you find Amanda?" she asked.

"No, honey, but we did find the guy that possibly kidnapped her." Dria smiled and quickly got out of bed.

"Lemme see him!" she demanded storming downstairs.

"Dria, he's in interrogation, you can't see him 'till after we know he's done it." Elliot told her.

"But that's not fair!" she protested.

"I know, but he's only a suspect, not the perp yet." Elliot got up, grabbed his coat and keys and walked out.

"Where's he going?"

"To pick up another girl, Dria do you know Lyndsay Renolds?"

"Lyndsay Renolds?" she repeated.

"Yeah, do you know her?"

"I know that she was in my school."

"What do you mean by "was" ?"

"Lyndsay got kidnapped awhile ago, after school about 2 years ago." Dria said blankly.

"What?"

"She used to be my friend." Olivia ran to her computer and pulled up the missing persons site and typed Lyndsay Renolds.

"Oh my god!", "How could I have missed it?" Benson closed the site and ran to her cell phone on the other table.

"Elliot, that girl your about to pick up, she was kidnapped 2 years ago!"

"What?" he said on the other end of the line in complete shock.

"Ms.Renolds, 2 years ago outside of school." Liv repeated.

"How come she never told us?"

"Dunno, but be real easy on her in the car, ease it in slowly."

"Gotcha, see you later." he hung up.

Elliot arrived at the address Lyndsay gave Munch and Fin. It was a small building with Wentle's engraved big on the side. He knocked on the door and it was answered by a petite woman,about 45, with semi-grey hair. She smiled at him.

"Yes?"

"I'm Detective Stabler, Manhattan Special Victims Unit, is Lyndsay Renolds home?"

"I'm sorry, she just got home last night, and we went out to celebrate her homecoming, then this morning she got up and said she was going to see the debate team she used to be on." the woman said.

"Are you her mother?"

"Me, oh heavens no, her Mom lives in Rehab, I took Lyndsay in when she was 4."

"Do you know where the debate team is right now?"

"I assume Brooklyn Middle School, they still practice in the summer."

"Thanks, oh and can you give me a picture of her, I haven't met her yet?" She retreated back inside and 5 minutes later she came back out with a small photograph in her hand.

"This is the last picture I have of her, she looks the same except her hair is longer and she lost alot of weight." Elliot took the picture, thanked the woman again and left for the school.

He walked into the school and heard yelling in the gym. That must be them

"But parents can always check your history on the internet!" a girl with short, blonde hair yelled.

"From my experience kids delete their history!" a boy yelled back at her. The girl that looked like Lyndsay was sitting down on the boy's side whispering to another girl. She shook her head and walked up to take the boys place.

"Lyndsay Renolds, for the record." she stated, She took one quick look at her notes and then back at the blonde girl. She spoke to her.

"Ginnie, good to debate against you again."

"Lynds, never thought I'd have the chance to again."

"Lets start."

"O.K the topic is should a school have a dress code." a boy told both girls.

"Ginnie, you're against the code, Lynds you're for it, begin."

"With the dress code, kids won't feel left out for not having the latest thing." Ms.Renolds began.

"Maybe if they bought the latest thing, it wouldn't happen."

"What if their parents don't have the money?" She caught Ginnie. Elliot needed to get Lyndsay and go but he would stay for one more round.

"This is only a 2 round match because everybody needs to go." the announcre said, both girls nodded and returned to debating.

"With a dress code, kids won't be able to express their creativity with clothes."

"They'd get made fun of if they did!"

"Not everybody does!"

"Most do, and you know it, like I said before if your not wearing the latest thing, your a loser here!" Another dead ringer. Ginnie noticed Detective Stabler standing there.

"What the hell do you want?" she asked him in an aggravated voice because she lost the debate.

"Detective Stabler, NYPD." he told her.

"Oh man, sorry."

"Is Lyndsay Renolds here?"

"Right here." the other debater jumped down from the stage and walked over.

"What did you do this time Lynds?" Ginnie wanted to know. Elliot shot her a warning glace and she backed away.

"Ready?"

"Yep, lets go!" She waved at all her friends and followed Elliot out of the gym.

"You know your a pretty good debater." Stabler mentioned in the car.

"Thanks, I have always wanted to be a lawyer!"

"Then you should meet our ADA Casey Novak." "Lyndsay, how come you didn't mention being kidnapped 2 years ago?"

"I just got home, that man was my kidnapper, I didn't want to bring it up." She seemed to be getting upset so El ended the conversation.


The first debate was the one I had at my school! Hope you like it!
