It was two months more before a lead came into the 16th precinct, giving Joe Stabler and Don Cragen, the location of Serena Benson.
Everyone was keeping up to date with Olivia's pregnancy, and making sure they were still safe, while still on the lookout for Serena.
Joe was sitting at his desk, reading a file, the same file he had been reading for the better part of six hours. It was the file on Serena, the woman who made him lose two of his children. Elliot, and Meredith. He placed the file back down onto the desk and wiped his brow. He felt as if this case was going to be the death of him. He honestly had no way of knowing if ever he would get Elliot and Olivia back to them.
Don walked in and dropped a file on Joe's desk. It made a slight slap as it landed. "What's this?"
"Read it, Joe." Don had a tiny smirk on his face. Joe sighed and opened it. Within seconds, Joe was wide eyed and standing up. "Oh yeah, Joe, we got her."
Joe closed the file, and dropped it on the table. "Let's talk to the Captain, I want that woman found."
Don nodded and they headed to their captain's office. Captain Mitchell, was a taller, older, and balder man. He held the office for the better part of six years, and was the best captain, Joe ever had. He felt as if Captain Mitchell was a friend. One he could depend on.
"Captain?"
"Yeah, Joe, Don, What is it?"
"We found Serena." Don said quickly. He held up the file and gave it to their captain.
He took the small file and read it quickly. He stood slowly and closed the file. "Are you sure?"
Don nodded. "Yes, she has been hiding in her storage container the entire time. The keeper of the containers called the police today and told them he saw her enter her container one hour, than not leave again after three hours. However the woman that exited her container, was blonde, and had on different clothes."
"Meaning?" The captain said, confused.
"Serena Benson, is using a disguise, that is why she has evaded us for so long. We can catch her." Joe said lightly.
"Are you sure you can catch her?" The captain asked his two command detectives before him.
"I think we can, After talking to the keeper, he said he can get us into her compartment where we wait until she arrives, and we will take her into custody. Once she is in custody, Joe's son, and his girlfriend and their unborn baby, can arrive home safely." Joe stiffened at the name of his son, and the Captain looked toward them.
"Alright, Joe, Don, go to the storage facility, and wait for her there. Once you find her, please bring her in." The two detectives nodded and walked out of his office grabbing guns and jackets on the way out.

They arrived at the facility and found the keeper. He took them to Serena's container and handed them the key before walking away very quickly.
They sat in the container for three hours, watching the door intently, waiting on Serena to arrive. After the fourth hour, Don was getting annoyed with time. "Come on, Don, she should be back any moment, all we have to do is wait."
"I know, I'm trying hard to remain stable, but four hours?" We should have brought water." Don said lightly.
"I know, I'm sorry. But all I want right now, is my kids back." It was the first time he had ever considered Olivia to be one of his, but when he said it, it seemed to flow out like he had said it for years. It felt so natural. He smiled only slightly.
The creak of the metal door, startled them and they trained their guns on it, as it opened. The bright light of the sun, came into the room and a blonde haired woman walked inside, at least three steps before noticing Joe and Don behind the boxes on either side of her container. Guns trained on her, Serena sighed than raised her hands. "Damn."
"Damn is right, Mrs. Benson, you are under arrest. Hands behind your back." She smiled and placed them behind her back, as she continued to face them.
In one split moment, Serena pulled out a pistol from behind her back, and took a shot at Joe. As Don looked on, he saw Joe fall backwards from the shot, and in turn emptied his clip at Serena. She fell backwards and the gun skidded outside of the container. He walked over to Serena and placed his hand to the side of her throat. No pulse arose from her veins, and so Don turned to Joe.
"Joe?"
"Ugh." He mumbled lightly and incoherently.
"Joe, come on man. You wore the vest. Come on, man get up."
"Don?" Joe opened his eyes and looked into the face of his partner. "Damn, I'm going to have a headache, and a really big bruise."
"Yeah, you are. Come on, get up." Don said grabbing his arm, to help him to his feet.
"Serena?"
"After she shot you, I shot her. She's dead." Don said helping him to view Serena Benson's cold body.
"Good, let's get CSU here."
6 hours later.
Olivia stood in the barren spare room that was to be the nursery for her baby girl. The walls were to be painted, the crib was to be made, they were to be placed, and clothes were to be bought. She studied the room carefully, for what seemed the millionth time.
Elliot came in to the room and wrapped his arms around her six and a half month swollen stomach. "Hey, you stay in here too much longer, the room will be too perfect."
Olivia smiled and turned to face Elliot. "I'm sorry, I want our girls room to be perfect."
"I know, you need rest, come on." She nodded and turned off the light. As they headed to their bedroom, a knock came swiftly at the door. "Who is that?"
"I don't know, El." They headed to the door, and Elliot looked through the peephole.
"It's Heather and Jeremy." He opened the door, and let them in. They all headed to the living room, where Olivia had sat herself, and placed her hands atop her belly.
"Olivia, how are you?" Heather asked first sitting on the couch opposite her and Elliot.
"I'm good, Heather, what's going on? It's 11 at night."
"We have good news for you." Jeremy spoke up.
"What news?" Elliot asked curious, and excited.
Heather looked to the both of them and smiled, "You can go home."
