When Olivia heard Elliot's voice on the other end of the line a mix of emotions flowed through her brain. The first thing she noticed right away was how exhausted he sounded as she knew he had probably been awake all night.
The next thing she felt was relief, utter relief at hearing his voice, as although it sounded tired, professional and a little gruff the sound of it still soothed her.
It didn't take that long to fade though as dread soon grabbed it's firm place in her head again as she knew what Lewis was expecting her to say and now that he had answered she had no clue how to get herself out of it as she just laid there on the bed breathing shallowly.
"This is Stabler is anyone there?" Elliot asked, trying to hide the tinge of frustration he was feeling.
Lewis tapped her temple lightly with his gun as Olivia flinched "e-el." she said shakily.
"Liv baby? Is that you? I'm here honey are you okay?" he asked softly, the frustration immediately gone.
"e-el," she said again as at the moment that was all she could seem to say.
"I'm here baby, I'm right here on the phone with you can you tell me where you are?"
Olivia just cont breathing shallowly as Lewis spoke up "we called because Olivia has something very important she needs to tell you."
Elliot nodded to himself as he quickly looked at his phone screen, recognizing the phone number as the same 1 that had been on the note "okay," he said in as soft of a voice as he could manage as he looked to Fin and Munch "I need a trace on the number that's called my phone, now."
"On it," Munch said as Lewis chuckled there's no reason to even bother with that Elliot I'm using a track phone I'm not stupid."
Elliot sighed and nodded "no one has said you are Lewis."
"Yeah well then don't act like I am, go ahead Olivia the floor is yours and we don't have all day."
Olivia glared "go to hell Lewis," she said as she cringed when he rubbed the gun against her temple as Elliot was putting the picture together over the phone "Olivia, baby? Does what you need to tell me have anything to do with the note from the other night? Because if it does we already talked about it remember?"
Olivia nodded slightly and went to speak but Lewis beat her to it, completely shocked "your saying that you already know that she's cheating on you and you don't care?"
Elliot glared harshly but made a conscious effort not to raise his voice "that's not what I'm saying Lewis."
"Then what are you saying?" he asked as he then leaned into whisper in Olivia's ear "sounds like he needs a little more convincing."
Olivia sighed "your wasting your time Lewis, I won't say it," she said in as steady of a voice as she could while Elliot read a slip of paper that was handed to him by Munch as it just read somewhere in Long-island as he sighed slightly and his shoulders dropped as he heard what Olivia said "baby it's okay..." he said softly as he ignored the question that Lewis had asked him as his heart broke, understanding that Lewis was trying to use him against her.
"N-no it's not El, no it's not," she said in a shaky voice as the more she talked the more that Elliot could tell that she had been drugged and that her brain wasn't working correctly.
"Baby it is and it will be," he sighed slightly, knowing that Lewis could hear them as he tried to think of a good way to reassure Olivia while not showing Lewis that he was doing so as he was missing their eye to eye contact more than anything right now "why don't you let us have this conversation face to face Lewis? It's obvious that what she needs to tell me is really important and face to face is always better for that right?"
Lewis shook his head "no can do the phone is just gonna have to do," he said as Elliot nodded and heard her whimper slightly as it didn't take a genius to know that he was holding a gun to her head.
"You know what, I'm losing patients here, I think I'll just go make some popcorn," Lewis said after 3 or so minutes of her trembling furiously but not uttering a word as he yanked the medallion that Elliot had given her off her neck and left the room to go heat it.
"Is he gone baby?" Elliot whispered softly into the phone.
"Mmhmm, b-but h-he took your metal with him, I-I guess I shouldn't have worn it yesterday," she whispered as well to make sure that only Elliot heard her.
Elliot shook his head "no no I'm glad you wore it sweetheart I... I hope it gave you a little comfort. I have your ring here too, baby we're gonna find you I promise I wont sleep until I do."
She slightly nodded "w-we're in a beach house on Long-island, I-I don't know where exactly b-but me , you and Izzabella took a walk close by once."
He nodded "baby that helps a lot, I'm headed to the rental car now, I wont hang up though."
"o-Okay I-is Izzabella okay, and Ryan? Are they both okay?"
"Yeah baby they are Izzabella's at mom's she was the only 1 that could keep her last night and Ryan's gonna make a full recovery, listen when he comes back we need to play his game okay?" he said as he scribbled a note to Munch, have a general idea as to where Liv is, not waiting on warrants or the go ahead from Cragen, if you guys wanna come, come but don't slow me down, no bathroom breaks, food breaks nothing. He wrote as he slapped the note on the desk as Munch read it then quickly passed it around.
"N-no El I'm not saying what he wants me to say I-I can't lose you..."
Yepp, she's definetly been drugged, Elliot concluded in his brain as he thought for a minute "sweetheart you wont lose me I promise you that, all you'll be doing is appeasing him, hopefully keeping him from hurting you any worse until I can get to you," he said softly as he nodded to Fin who had the note and was giving him a thumbs up gesture.
"B-but what he wants me to say... I-it's awful a-and can't be taken back," she said as Lewis could be heard in the other room fighting with the stove trying to get it to turn on.
Elliot sighed slightly as he watched Rollins shake her head at him and Amaro give a hesitant thumbs up "honey you forget I was a detective for over 16 years I already know what it is that he wants you to say... And I also understand why you don't wanna say it but remember the Stuckey case? Remember you told him what a prick I was, what a horrible partner I was? Hell you even kissed him that night."
Olivia shuddered slightly on the bed I-I didn't wanna do those things El," she whispered.
"Hey hey.. I know that baby, I know that and I'm not trying to upset you... I'm just trying to remind you that we've been in a situation like this before and at the end of the night we were fine just like we'll be just fine when this is all over. Can you trust me when I say that?"
She nodded slightly "I-I'll always trust you El," she said as Elliot smiled slightly and nodded "good," he said as he saw Munch shake his head and point at the phones as him, Fin and Amaro walked out of the squad room.
"Finally!!" Lewis could be heard shouting as he finally got the stove to turn on as Olivia shuddered "I'm still here love, I'm still here," Elliot said softly as he started to drive with his free hand "so when he comes back in and tells you to tell me I need you to do it okay? I'll act like I believe what your telling me but I already know the truth."
Olivia nodded slightly "o-okay," she said as Fin and Amaro gave each other looks trying to figure out what the hell was going on over the phone.
"e-el?" Liv said after a short comfortable silence.
"Hmm?" He asked softly.
"Did you guys save mrs. Mayer?"
Elliot frowned slightly "whose Mrs. Mayer?"
"A woman that Lewis raped, he killed her husband and raped her, made me watch."
Elliot shook his head sadly "I didn't even know about her until just now, do you know where they live?"
She shook her head sadly "I was passed out in the trunk until we got there then I was to groggy to remember the address, I'm sorry El."
He shook his head adamantly "you have absolutely no reason to be sorry honey," he said as he looked to Fin "call Munch, apparently there is a lady named Mrs. Mayer who Olivia watched be raped at her home. From what Liv's saying it sounds like she could still be alive."
Fin nodded "on it man," he said as Elliot heard Olivia's breaths grow shallow again as Lewis walked over to the bed with the flaming hot metal in his hand as he held it to the skin just above her right breast until she cried out as a tear slipped down Elliot's cheek when she screamed as Fin rubbed his shoulder "you ready to tell your husband the truth now?" Lewis whispered, totally unaware of their plan.
Olivia sighed and decided to try 1 more tactic as a last ditch effort to get out of saying the hurtful words, even if it would just be acting "I-I already told him, I-I told him while you were in the other room."
Lewis shook his head and smirked "I wanna hear you tell him with my own ears."
She sighed slightly and took a deep breath as she kept what Elliot had said to her in her mind as she opened her mouth to speak "I-I went with Lewis by choice a-and his note to you was true. I-I'm sorry Elliot, I'm sorry I hurt you and our daughter. I-I hope you can forgive me one day."
Elliot didn't say anything, he didn't have to say anything as his light sniffles were enough to make Lewis buy into the act as he smirked "you made your husband cry Olivia, I expected him to shout at you but cry? That's just not a reaction I'm used to from a man."
Olivia sighed and gave Lewis a defeated look "I-I did what you wanted okay? I ruined my marriage for you n-now please just leave me alone..."
Lewis just chuckled and smirked "your mine now Olivia, mine, goodbye Elliot, I hope that your able to move on and mend your broken heart," he said as he then ended the call before Elliot could get a word in as he began burning her flesh again with the metal.
"Did you just fake cry man?" Fin asked as Elliot slammed the phone down on the dash.
Elliot sighed "it was better than shouting and Olivia couldn't have taken me shouting at her I know that for a fact."
"Why would you have needed to shout man?"
Elliot sighed "because Lewis forced Liv to tell me that she had been cheating on me with him, he almost killed her when she first got on the phone because she wouldn't say it so when he stepped out of the room we turned it into an undercover mission."
Amaro sighed "why didn't she just say it right away? I mean it sounds like her life was at stake."
Elliot sighed "I wondered the same thing at first but she was drugged out of her mind, I could tell by her voice and she's always had a deeply rooted fear of losing me, this traumatic experience in combination with the drugs she's been given probably brought the fear to the surface."
Amaro sighed "probably so man, even I know she has nothing to worry about though so it's weird that she has trust issues."
Elliot sighed "yeah well if you were the product of your mothers rape and she told you repeatedly every day that you'd always be alone , that love wasn't real and that most importantly you weren't worthy of love you'd have trust issues too."
He sighed slightly "yeah I guess I would."
Elliot just nodded "mmhmm," he said as he sighed when his phone rang "Stabler," he answered.
"Dad it's me, it's Kathleen I saw the news... God I'm so sorry to hear about Olivia have you gotten any closer to finding her yet?"
He sighed "I have a general location but I'm kind of looking for her off the books right now with a couple of colleagues from the station I wasn't willing to wait for warrants that I knew we wouldn't get to search every beach house."
"How many beach houses are there though dad? and how are you gonna search every one of them? Do you have binoculars or something?"
Elliot sighed "there are over 20 houses and Katie you don't wanna know how I'm gonna search them trust me on that kiddo."
"Oh dear... Your not gonna break into them are you?"
Elliot just sighed "yepp that's exactly what I'm doing until I find Olivia."
"Dad there's gotta be a better way, a safer way what if someone is in 1 of the houses and they shoot you or something?"
"Katie I'm only breaking into the ones that look abandoned if someones there I'll nock and ask."
She sighed and nodded "I guess that makes me feel a little better, umm I'm gonna be on the next flight to Nu York dad, I took a leave of absence from work and wanna help you guys however I can. Maureen's coming too but she'll be driving so she probably wont be there until tomorrow."
"Honey I appreciate that really... But I don't know where you guys can stay I don't even know where we'll stay once Liv is found and out of the hospital our house is a crime scene and even when CSU is done with it I doubt she'll feel comfortable sleeping in our bed ever again."
"We can probably all stay at Grandma B's, she has the room and I'm sure she wouldn't mind."
Elliot nodded "that might work but I don't wanna impose, if push comes to shove we'll get a motel, it'll all work out."
Kathleen nodded her head "I know it will dad, if anyone can make this situation work out somehow it's you, mom said she was so sorry to hear about Olivia also, she said she'd prey for you guys and Elizabeth is sorry that she couldn't come with Maureen. She said that she'd fly out after her college exams were through."
He nodded his head slightly "tell your mother that I said thank you and tell Elizabeth that I said not to rush , to focus on her exams, that we both love her very much and we look forward to seeing her when she comes into town."
She nodded "I will dad, I'm gonna go so I can pack my bag and catch my flight but be safe please."
"I will honey I promise, I love you."
"I love you too dad," she said as the phone call ended just as they pulled into the parking lot of a hardware store "I need to buy something real quick, I'll be right back," Elliot said as he moved to get out.
"Hey what the hell do you need to buy from here man? What the hell did we get ourselves into?" Amaro asked.
Elliot glared "didn't I tell you guys not to slow me down? If your not with me in my mission feel free to get out of the car and hale a cab back to the precinct."
Amaro sighed "easy Elliot easy I was just trying to get information."
He nodded "you'll see what I bought when I get back with your items," he said as he quickly got out of the car and headed into the store.
Elliot ran through the isles like a maniac on a mission as he grabbed 3 crowbars , 3 black ski masks and 3 granola bars since they were right there by the cash register anyway as he sat his items down "when I thought the purchases today couldn't get any stranger they did..." The guy said.
Elliot frowned, his detective antennas perking up "what else was bought here today?"
"Oh a dude came in around midnight or so, bought a rope, some wire, a tarp and a hand held blow torch, said he was taking his girlfriend camping or something like that."
Elliot sighed and nodded his head "ring my stuff up would you? I've got somewhere I need to be."
The man nodded quickly , slightly intimidated by Elliot as he got to typing "what'd the man look like?" Elliot asked then.
"He was about 6 feet tall, had an awful scar on his face he must have gotten hurt or something when he was a kid."
Yeah yeah he probably did, and he'll be lucky if he doesn't die today by the time I'm through with him that piece of shit! Elliot thought to himself as he just nodded to the man "it'll be 28.68," he said once he saw him nod as Elliot gave him 30 dollars "keep the change," he said as he grabbed the stuff and ran to the car.
"Alright Fin distribute these around," Elliot said as he started driving as soon as he got back in the car not even taking a second to breathe.
Fin sighed slightly "Elliot are you sure this is a good idea man? This could be what ends up taking our badges and it could prevent you from ever getting a job with the force ever again."
Elliot sighed "I could care less about that Fin and I doubt I'll ever work with the police force again I haven't in 3 years why would that change now?"
Fin just sighed , nodded his head and put his crowbar and mask underneath his seat as he snacked on the granola bar "don't you care if we lose our badges though," Amaro asked.
Elliot sighed "nobody is making you stay in this car, no one is holding you against your will you can leave at any time."
He sighed slightly "I'm not leaving I wanna find my partner."
Elliot nodded "great, then I'm glad to have you here but you also know the consequences just like I know the consequences."
Amaro sighed and nodded his head "pass me my stuff Fin."
Fin nodded and obliged as Amaro immediately scarfed down his granola bar "you gonna eat yours Elliot?"
Elliot shook his head "I'm giving mine to Olivia once she's safe I doubt the prick has given her anything to eat."
Amaro nodded his head "your a good man Elliot Stabler," he said as Elliot slightly smiled "I try to be," he said as they entered the city of long-island.
"Okay so what exactly did Olivia tell you about where she is Elliot?" Fin asked.
"She just said that she was in a beach house here on long-island and that it was close to where the 3 of us walked once but that's all she knows."
Fin nodded "if she said it was close I'd take us to beach houses around that area first then branch out."
Elliot nodded his head "that's what I'm doing Fin," he said as Fin's phone rang "tutuola," he answered.
"Hey Fin it's John, me and Amanda just left the Mayer's home, you were right Mrs. Mayer had been raped , the husband was gone and she was strung up in the closet but she's alive."
Fin nodded "that's good to know Munch I'll let Elliot know."
He nodded "alright good plan, she said something weird though, she begged us not to press charges against Olivia for helping him string her up, said she was only following orders."
Fin sighed "that fuckin bastard.. Should I tell Elliot?"
"That's up to you man but I probably would and I'm sure that'll be a holdback in Liv's victim statement too."
He sighed "yeah probably so, I've gotta go man."
"Alright keep me updated please, I'm holding off Cragen looking for you guys for as long as I can."
Fin nodded "thanks Munch," he said as as soon as he hung up Elliot glanced over at him "what happened? What aren't you sure you should tell me?"
Fin sighed "they found the Mayer's Livs description of the scene was right on target she just forgot to tell you 1 thing."
Elliot glared "whatever it was that she forgot to say I'm sure wasn't intensional he's had her for over 12 hours and has done god knows what to her! We're damn lucky that she even remembered about Mrs. Mayer at all!"
Fin sighed as he was used to his anger from all the years before as he didn't even react to it "Elliot I doubt she'll ever forget mrs. Mayer according to her she was ordered to help string her up.."
Elliot's face paled "oh god... Oh god Olivia will never forgive herself for that... h-how will I be able to help her forgive herself..."
Fin sighed "Elliot you wont be able to do it all I know that for a fact she's gonna need a therapist and a damn good 1 to help her sort all this mess out in her head."
Elliot nodded "I'll get her 1 when she's ready all I wanna do right now is save her , hold her in my arms and be the supportive loving husband she needs."
Fin nodded "I here that but you can't smother her or coddle her, she's not five, she'll want her space most likely and you'll need to give her that space."
He sighed and nodded "I'll do whatever she wants and needs, if she wants me holding her that's what I'll do, if she wants space she'll have the space that she needs but I'm gonna do what she wants not what other people tell me that she's gonna want and need."
Fin nodded "I hear you loud and clear Elliot," he said as they pulled up at the first abandoned beach house "okay what do we need to do?" Amaro asked.
Elliot sighed "we're gonna put on these ski masks so the beat cops in the area wont figure out who we are, I'll take my crowbar, bust down the door then once we're inside we'll act like swat, clearing the rooms 1 by 1, we'll check under furniture, in closets, every where that it's feasible for a person to be then once the hole house is checked and ruled out we'll move on to the next 1."
Amaro sighed and nodded "a-alright, I'll stay out here and be the lookout for cops, you and Fin can do all that in there."
Both Elliot and Fin nodded their heads satisfied with that plan as they advanced on the door and Elliot broke it down with 1 hit as they entered the house.
"Clear!" Elliot called after a couple minutes as he was satisfied that no one was in the living room.
"The master bedroom's clear too!" Fin called as Elliot nodded "alright you check the Attic and upstairs closets I'll check the basement and the rest of the downstairs!"
"Copy that Elliot!!" Fin shouted as after 15 more minutes all they had found was some rats and old boxes "this place is clear no one's been here in a while lets move on!" Elliot called as Fin nodded and they walked out of the house.
"Find anything?" Amaro asked.
Elliot shook his head in aggravation "if we had found Liv don't you think she'd be in my arms now Amaro?"
Nick sighed "good point," he said as it took them 5 minutes to arrive at the next home "it looks like someones here."
"Yeah it does but the car looks a lot like the Mayer's car El lets check it together," Fin said as Elliot nodded his head and they got out of the car as Elliot knocked on the door.
"Can I help you gentlemen?" An elderly woman asked with an oxygen cannula in her nose as she opened the door but then scooted away fast seeing the masks on their faces.
"Ma'am it's okay we're not gonna harm you," Elliot said softly as he pulled a picture of Olivia up on his phone "have you seen this woman?"
She shook her head "no sir I haven't has something bad happened to her?"
Elliot nodded "yes it has, I'm her husband and we're looking for her have you left this house at all in the last few days?"
She shook her head "no sir I haven't, but that's not saying that I haven't wanted to I'm stir crazy haven't been down the road in days."
Elliot couldn't help but chuckle slightly "I'm sorry to hear that ma'am have you got someone looking after you?"
"Oh yes, yes I have actually my kids take great care of me. Do you gentlemen need anything else? If not I'd like to catch the rest of price is right."
Elliot smiled slightly "no ma'am that'll be all but if you do happen to see her or this man", he showed her a picture of Lewis; "give me a call at this number okay?" He said as he handed her his card with his phone number on it.
"Will do Mr. Stabler and a piece of advice from an old woman, get rid of the masks you 2 look like a couple of robbers."
Elliot chuckled again "have a nice rest of your day ma'am," he said as he closed the door softly "all clear," he said to Amaro as they got back in the car and sped off.
"That old lady seemed sweet," Fin said with a slight smile.
Elliot nodded "yeah she did, I can tell she says exactly what she thinks too but I feel bad for being able to laugh or smile at all right now you know?"
Fin sighed "I get it Elliot but just because you were sweet to an elderly woman and gave her a smile doesn't mean that you wanna find Olivia any less."
He sighed "yeah well what if the minute that I wasted talking to her is 1 more burn that Olivia gets because I wasn't there a minute earlier?"
Fin sighed "don't think like that Elliot it wont help."
He sighed slightly "I'll try not to," he said as they pulled up at the next abandoned home "lets hope the third house is the charm," Amaro said as they all got out.
"God the smell," Fin said as Elliot sighed "just hold your nose we have to search it," he said as he busted the door down and they headed inside.
"Clear!" Fin shouted from the kitchen.
"Clear besides tons of old McDonalds wrappers!" Elliot called from the living room.
"Lets head upstairs! I'll go left you go right!" Fin called as Elliot nodded "copy!" he said as they made their trek up.
"Clear!!" Fin called from the master room.
"Copy!!" Elliot called as he went to open the door to another bedroom but found it to be locked as the lock could only be opened from the outside with a key "shit!" he cursed as he used his crowbar to bust down the door "oh my dear Jesus..." he said horrified as he found a small girl chained to the bed and cowering away from him, completely frightened "umm Liv's not here but someone else is!!"
"I'm coming!!" Fin called as the young girl shrieked in terror as Elliot took off his mask "sweetheart it's okay, it's okay we're not gonna harm you... I promise..."
The girl cont trembling on the bed "I-If your 1 of Peter's friends h-he's n-not h-here..."
"Sweetie I'm not, we're not sweetie I used to be a cop and me and my friend are looking for my wife, we're not gonna hurt you honey..." he said as he then looked over to Fin who was entering the room "find a cup in this house that isn't filthy and fix this baby some water, I'm gonna unchain her while you do that then we have to go, I'll call 911 while we drive on."
Fin sighed "Elliot 1 of us should stay with her until the cops get here."
Elliot sighed "don't you think I know that!? Trust me I know that but we can't, we can't I can't just sit here knowing that Liv is in a house nearby," he said as his voice then grew lower "besides this little girl is terrified of us anyway there's no reason to exacerbate her trauma any more than we already have."
Fin sighed loudly "I guess you have a point but this still isn't right," he said as he walked off and searched for a semi clean cup.
"Sweetheart I'm just gonna take these chains off of you okay?" He said softly.
The little girl frowned slightly "m-mr. Peter has the key a-and he's not here."
"Dammit!" Elliot exclaimed as the child flinched at his raised voice "I'm sorry sweetheart I didn't mean to yell," he said as Fin then walked into the room with a glass of water in hand "any luck with the chain Elliot?"
He shook his head "no the captor has the key and we didn't bring any bolt cutters."
Fin nodded "there's a store just down the street I can buy some bolt cutters."
Elliot sighed slightly and shook his head, guilt coloring his expression "we don't have time for that Fin..."
Fin sighed "Elliot Olivia would want us to help this little girl..."
He nodded slightly "I know she would and we are, we are," he said as he gently held the glass to her lips as she drank it all rather quickly as once all of the water was gone Elliot sat the glass down and slightly sighed "give me your handcuff key Fin."
He nodded as by this point the young girl realized that these men were good people as she allowed herself to relax while Elliot tried the key as he sighed when it didn't work "well we tried..." he said to Fin as he then looked over at the little girl "sweetheart we have to go now and I'm so sorry that we couldn't get this off you," he touched the chain "but your a very brave girl and help will be here really soon just hang in there a little bit longer okay?"
She slightly nodded her head with tears in her eyes "t-thank you for breaking into mr. Peter's house, y-you saved my life a-and I wont tell the police you did anything wrong, I'll just tell them that you kept the masks on."
Elliot slightly smiled "thank you sweetheart and saving you was our pleasure, keep being brave the worst is over," he said as he almost kissed her forehead but thought better of it as they left the room and the house behind.
"Nothing again?" Amaro asked.
Fin sighed "not exactly there was a kid in there, she looked super skinny, probably has been held captive in there for a long time."
Amaro sighed "why the hell aren't we helping her then?"
Elliot sighed "we did what we could, we gave her a full glass of water tried to get the chain off... but we can't let this divert us from what we're trying to do," he said as he pulled away from the house and dialed 911.
"911 what's your emergency?" the dispatcher asked.
"there's a young girl being held captive at 5215 Hazelwood Av. Get there quick!" Elliot said as he then hung up before any more information could be obtained as once the call was through they all tried to push the horrible looking house and the extremely emaciated girl out of their minds as they pushed onwards in their hunt for Olivia.
11:55 AM, 5925 River road, Long-island Nu York.
In the few hours after the phone call between Lewis, Olivia and Elliot things at the beach house had been pretty uneventful as Lewis had ended up unintentionally falling asleep and Olivia quietly figured out that the iron bar that she was cuffed to wasn't all that secure as she took comfort in the fact that she'd be able to easily break it if it should become necessary.
She was trying extremely hard though to wait on Elliot and just buy time as she knew he'd hurt her less that way than otherwise but she was starting to become worried about how long it was taking for him to get there and if he had been prevented from trying to find her.
Just as her thoughts began going down negative routes Lewis walked into the room "well hello sunshine have you missed me?"
Olivia glared and scoffed "what do you think Lewis?" she asked sarcastically.
He smiled "by your reaction it's obvious that you've missed me," he said as he jabbed the skin between each finger on her right hand with the needle as she was stoic for the first 3 jabs but soon she had had more than she could handle "s-stop s-stop god p-please j-just s-stop!" she cried.
"Ohh you know I can't just stop Olivia, I have to make up for the last few hours," he said as he placed 2 adderalls in her mouth then poured more vodka down her throat as she choked and gagged but swallowed "good girl," Lewis said as he grabbed the blow torch and used it for a moment on her left breast as he then turned the tv on "shall we watch the news? I'd like to watch the news."
Olivia slightly nodded as after a moment she stopped trembling and her tears dried "s-sure," she said as he smiled brightly and turned it to a local news station.
"Good afternoon, this is WHNT News 19 at noon I'm your news anchor Lisa Spenser.
We're starting out this afternoon with breaking news, A Manhattan SVU detective by the name of Olivia Benson-Stabler has now been missing for 18 hours. It is highly suspected that she is being held captive by William Lewis, a Kentucky native who is suspected of committing multiple sadistic crimes including rape, torture and murder. The police have no idea where she is being held at this time but are following every credible lead that they receive, the NYPD is offering a 10 thousand dollar reward for any information received that leads to detective Benson-Stablers being found or the capturing of William Lewis, WHNT news 19 asks that you keep the Benson-Stabler family in your prayers during this difficult time.
In other news, the citizens of Long-Island have a pack of new trespassers in town, you heard right, trespassers, we're calling them the beach house lookers because what do they do? They break in, look and leave. As of right now the Long-Island robbery squad has no idea why these crimes are being committed or who is committing them but it is speculated that it could be teenagers playing a prank or doing a dare. The cops have told WHNT news 19 that they have a conscience though, as if it hadn't been for them a young girl could have spent more years in captivity. The child's parents, whose names cannot be released at this time want to thank them for saving their daughters life, and the robbery squad has agreed to stop pursuing the criminals if they stop their spree and their are no injuries as a result of their crimes. To avoid being hit by this crew officers suggest that you turn the lights in your home on as the criminals only seem interested in homes which appear to be abandoned or unoccupied, if you have any information about these criminals or their motivation for continuing to commit these crimes please contact the Long-island robbery squad at the number on your screen."
Oh Elliot, my sweet sweet Elliot, Olivia thought to herself as she beamed inside with pride as she did her best to hide her smile as thankfully she succeeded "damn there are some stupid kids in this world huh? Beach house lookers? All that name's gonna do is fuel their fire," Lewis said as he shook his head and started turning on all the lights.
Olivia slightly smiled "yeah true it probably will," she said to him as she rolled over the best she could with her restraints.
Lewis smiled "you look relaxed," he said with an evil smirk on his face as he then roughly thrust his finger into her private area as she then went into full blown fight or flight mode as she used all the strength she had to break the metal bar free from the bed, breaking her left wrist in the process as she struck Lewis hard across the head with it before he had a chance to react as she then kicked him in the groin and grabbed his gun, pointing it at him as he wined in pain.
"Don't move," Olivia said while trying to catch her breath.
"Why hmm?" he asked as he crawled towards her "what are you gonna do?"
"One move , lights out," Olivia said with as much venom in her voice as she could muster.
"Okay, alright, you wanna be in control for a while baby? I can play that."
Olivia smirked, matching the evil ones he had been giving her all this time as she pistol whipped him and he fell unconscious as she immediately checked his pockets for his key as once she found it she removed the handcuffs from herself and cuffed him to the bed instead as after she finished with that she took a moment to calm down and catch her breath.
After about 5 minutes or so she had calmed down considerably as she grabbed Lewis's phone and sent a quick text to Elliot.
El it's me, managed to break free, he's unconscious on the floor, still don't know the address of where I am but I saw the news, I know what your doing and I know your coming. Please get here in one piece, xxxx. She sent as she then deleted the message from his phones history to make sure that Elliot wasn't incriminated in anything.
A few more minutes passed as she kept the gun in her lap and rubbed her wrist as now that the adrenaline had worn off the pain was setting in as her thoughts were running wild.
She then sighed "you can't keep sitting here Olivia, try to do something for yourself please, at least cover up before El gets here," she whispered to herself as with that resolve she managed to shakily stand up as she still kept the gun close as she walked over to the mirror that was in the room.
Damn he got me good... she thought to herself as she winced slightly when she looked at the gash on her forehead as she gently touched it to inspect weather or not it was still bleeding.
She was relieved to find that the blood was dry but sighed deeply at how truly awful she felt she looked as she then leaned heavily against the dresser as she steered clear of all of the torture instruments that were laying on it.
After another minute or so she sighed heavily again and moved away from the dresser as she looked around for some water but could find none as she shook her head then stepped back over to the dresser as she searched through the drawers as she sighed in relief when she found a pair of panties and a bra as she put them on as although they were an extremely tight fit she didn't care as she then stepped back in front of the bed as the gun rested on her shoulder and she held her broken wrist gently in her hand as she faced Lewis.
"Hey, hey you," she said as she kicked his body to see if he was conscious as she slightly smiled when he didn't respond "your out cold aren't you.
I haven't called anybody yet, well I've texted Elliot but as far as you know he wont care so... If you only knew, if you only knew how we manipulated your dumbass this morning you'd feel stupid as hell... anyway I haven't called my squad yet though, I haven't called them yet because I think I want you to suffer first.
Maybe I can burn you, or cut you, or I could use the blowtorch on you," she smiled some as she picked the blowtorch up and turned it on as it was still covered in her blood.
She held it in her hand for a moment with it on as her smile then faded and she shook her head , laying it back down on the dresser.
"See you? you'd know what to do. Your hole life you've known what you wanted and you've just done it, what I wanna do? I wanna shoot you in the head right now , watch you bleed out, but maybe that's to easy," she said darkly as she raised the gun a little higher and looked through it's site.
After a moment more of thinking it through she sighed heavily and lowered the gun "my husband he'd know what to do. He wouldn't question himself after what you've done... When he gets here and he will get here he will kick your teeth in... break your legs break your arms break your back, break your face. Maybe I should just wait for him, maybe I should let him use that metal bar on you," she walked closer to him with a slight smile on her face "huh? And make you beg for your life lord knows you deserve it," she said as just then he jerked up and she shrieked slightly and moved back still holding on to the gun.
"Do it, do something please godspeed, that's the saddest thing I've ever heard in my life."
"Shut up!!" Olivia shouted.
"Your husband would know what to do, I would know what to do and you just stand there wandering what to do?"
"I will hurt you," Olivia said in a warning tone.
"Then take the cuffs off,"
"Stop talking!" Olivia demanded. "Or what?." Lewis asked harshly "are you gonna shoot me? You don't have it in you. You want to but you can't because your a nice girl."
"You don't know who your dealing with," Olivia said.
Lewis sighed "that husband of yours is pretty macho isn't he? It must be tough for you dealing with his temper every day, I heard his temper when I was in your house. I read his diary too the man has some disturbing dreams I'd be worried about my safety if I were you."
Olivia glared "you don't get to talk about him anymore!"
Lewis chuckled "your always so quick to defend him, your loyal to him to a fault , hell you almost died earlier because of him has he ever hurt you like he did in the dreams? I bet somebody has I can always smell a victim."
Olivia glared harshly and hit him twice with the metal bar "smell that!!?" She shouted as she didn't see the car that was pulling into the driveway.
"That's it, there's the spunk," Lewis said as he smiled point taken, you weren't a victim, that topics off limits.
Let me ask you this though "why isn't your father trying to save you hmm?"
Olivia glared "that's none of your business!"
He nodded and sighed "fine fine I'll just tell you about mine then."
Olivia continued to glare as she shook her head "how about you don't, I'm not interested."
Lewis grinned "you are you are," he said as Olivia shook her head "I'm not!" she said but he started talking anyway.
Outside Elliot , Nick and Fin got out of the car "this is the place it's gotta be it's 1 of the last beach houses in this area and the car that's parked out front looks identical to the one that the mayer's drive," Fin said.
Elliot nodded "I figure the house is unlocked so I'll sneak in from the back, if this is the place I'll let you guys know when we're ready for you to call backup."
Fin nodded his head "alright Elliot, at this point Cragen already knows what we're doing, he definitely doesn't approve but Munch said he doesn't think that he's gonna reprimand us."
Elliot sighed and nodded "good although honestly I wouldn't care if he did finding Olivia would be worth whatever punishment he doled out and more."
Fin nodded "true that and the fact that we uncovered another crime during this insanity should win us some browny points too."
Elliot nodded "mmhmm," he said as he made sure the granola bar was in his pocket as he clutched the crowbar for just in case he ended up needing it as he opened the door ever so quietly and snuck inside.
He found the living room to be clear as as he crept upstairs he listened intently as he heard voices coming from the master bedroom.
"Then my daddy came out, he slaps her in the face , she's bleeding from the nose and the mouth. He grabs her pulls her pants down and I'm sure you know what happens next,"
Olivia nodded "yeah I do and I bet you had to watch the whole thing huh? Are you kidding me? Am I supposed to feel sorry for you?" she asked in disdain as she sensed a presence behind her.
"Sorry? Ohh no honey, I think you missed the point, my daddy got up, pulled up his pants, brought me to the car and took me to dairy queen for ice cream. It was 1 of the best days of my life," Lewis said as Olivia sighed audibly in disgust as Elliot glared behind her.
Lewis ignored her reaction and didn't notice Elliot as he continued talking "it was the day that I knew what I was put on this earth to do," he said as he stared up at Olivia from the floor, his nose and mouth covered in blood "I know what I want. What about you?"
Olivia sighed as she still couldn't shake that there was a presence behind her as she whipped her head around, pointing her gun in that direction but it only took her a second to see who it was as she immediately retrained the gun back on Lewis and shot Elliot a look of utter sorrow.
Elliot shook his head ever so slightly as he gave Olivia a look of complete and total understanding as Olivia gave a slight nod "I do, I know exactly what I want," she said as she focused back on Lewis.
Lewis nodded and gave her a wild, high grin as she walked over to him and put the gun to his head "I want you dead, I want a bullet in your head."
Lewis nodded "that's it,"
Olivia ignored his comment "I want you in the ground. Nobody will miss you, nobody will morn you," she said as Elliot was slowly sneaking around the room with the blowtorch in his hand unnoticed by the two of them.
Lewis nodded "then do it, just do it come on do it right now while your angry just shoot me. Do it it's gonna feel so good! just shoot me! Don't wait, don't wait don't let this go to trial baby, I've got a looong history of winning streaks I'm gonna get off I promise."
Olivia thought for a moment as she then trembled slightly, pulling the gun away and stepping back "no no no no, no come back," Lewis whined, still trying to taunt her as the next thing he knew Elliot was looming over top of him "how does it feel to be surprised huh tough guy?!" He asked in an extremely cold and detached voice as he ignited the blowtorch and held it to his genital region.
Lewis screamed in complete and udder terror, his eyes wide with fear "now you know how Olivia felt you piece of trash!! It's fun when you do the sneaking but it's not so fun when your the 1 snuck up on huh!" he said as Olivia watched but stayed on the other side of the room, a safe distance away from them.
Lewis shook his head furiously, bordering on unconsciousness from the pain s-s-she w-w-wanted i-it."
"She wanted NO such thing you scumbag! By the time I'm through with you you're gonna wish you had never been born!! Your gonna cry for your mother!!" he said as he then struck his chest several times with the crowbar.
Lewis ended up passing out from the pain as Olivia then tentatively walked over "e-El?"
Elliot heard the hesitancy in her voice as he immediately laid the crowbar down and faced her, his expression morphing from angry , cold and calculating to kind, warm and loving "it's alright honey he's unconscious... Come here my love," he said softly as he opened his arms for her.
She slightly nodded as she stood where she was "I wanna keep hurting him as badly as you do, I-I was serious when I said that I want him dead... b-but I want for you to be at home with me and our daughter not in a jail cell for murdering William Lewis... "H-He's already taken so much from me Elliot... h-he's taken the safety of our home, my beauty, my innocence... Please don't let him take you too..."
"Oh honey..." Elliot said softly as he couldn't help himself as he rushed over to her and wrapped her in his arms "your not gonna lose me ever, no matter what happens... I swear on my life," he said softly as he stroked her back.
Olivia sighed "I might not lose you lose you but I'd lose being able to lay my head on your chest at night. Our daughter would lose getting to jump on the trampoline with you every day that it's warm out. She'd lose all of the fun daddy daughter days that you guys make a point to have... Instead all we'd get is 1 contact visit a week behind barbed wire fences at Attica and that's if we were lucky. If we weren't..." a tear slid down her face and landed on his shirt "I-If we weren't we'd only get to see you through the glass of indoor prison visitation rooms... William Lewis dying today isn't worth that to me Elliot and I know that if you look deep down and passed your anger that it wont be worth it to you either..."
Elliot sighed slightly, her words causing a tear to slip down his cheek as well "Olivia your right honey... God I know your right it's just that that bastard deserves to suffer for what he did to you. F-for what he put you through..."
She nodded slightly and squeezed his shoulder slightly with her hurt arm as she tried unsuccessfully to hide the wince "I know he does El trust me I know, and he has his manhood will never be the same again now that you've umm..." she smiled slightly not sure how to eloquently word it.
"Burned it half off? It's okay honey you can say it and you have the right to smile about it." Elliot said as he gently rubbed her shoulder as sadly it was the shoulder that had been displaced as she winced, gritted her teeth hard and backed away "oh god baby did I hurt you?"
She shook her head slightly "n-not your fault Elliot I-I think that shoulders just out of place, he jerked it around hard when I wouldn't give him my ring."
He nodded "I'm sorry honey, I'm really sorry I wouldn't have touched it if I had known..."
She shook her head again "it's not your fault Elliot. Whatcha say we each give him 1 more hit then get out of this hellhole? All I want right now more than anything is a glass of water, to be off my feet and to be out of pain."
Elliot nodded sounds good my love, your the strongest woman I know," he said as he handed her the iron bar and he picked the crowbar up as just as Lewis regained consciousness the 2 bars hit him at full force at once, 1 breaking his right wrist and 1 shattering his left kneecap as once they had finished Elliot quickly made the room look like a struggle had taken place as the rest of Olivia's adrenaline wore off as her legs gave out and she collapsed into Elliot's waiting arms as he carried her out of the beach house, not bothering to spare William Lewis who was writhing in pain on the floor another glance.
