Manhattan SVU
1.53 pm
Olivia marched into the bullpen at such speed that Jessie had to jog to keep up with her, she was a definite woman on a mission and God help anyone who planned on getting in her way.
"What have you got for us Benson?" Cragen asked seeing her rush to the white board.
"Prints of one Tony Donnelly, someone please find out how the fuck he was there and not in Sing Sing where he should be!" Olivia called as she stuck a picture of Tony Donnelly on the board, it was his mug shot that had been taken when he entered Sing Sing after blowing up Calvin's school and shot her in the arm.
"Donnelly?" Cragen asked rushing to her.
"Yes, Tony Donnelly, 43, locked up for blowing up my son and shooting me, the same Tony Donnelly." Olivia explained angrily.
"I'm calling Sing Sing!" Jessie called from her desk.
Elliot came in and saw Olivia and then the picture.
"Liv?" He asked rushing over to her.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled her close stroking her long brown hair that now fell below her shoulder blades. He kissed the side of her head as she blinked back tears that she was determined not to shed.
Jessie hung up the phone and turned to Olivia and Elliot. They both looked at her still holding around each other.
"They have no record of Tony Donnelly ever being there." Jessie told them.
"Shit." Elliot spat.
Olivia said nothing but dropped her gaze to the floor as her mind went into over drive.
"Someone in the prison is involved." Olivia eventually suggested turning to look at Cragen as she let go of Elliot.
"What makes you say that?" Cragen asked.
"No record of him Cap! Someone helped him escape and made sure that it was covered up, it has to be someone high up in the prison." Olivia explained.
"This is getting weirder by the second." Elliot sighed.
"You're telling me, now, Olivia why don't you and Elliot go home get whatever you need for the girls then come back and we'll have figured out where to go from here." Cragen suggested.
"Sounds good to me." Olivia sighed grabbing her car keys.
En route to Benson-Stabler household
2.32 pm
"Do you really think Donnelly is after the girls?" Olivia asked as she turned on the engine.
"I don't know baby, maybe, I mean the girls are safe though, no one but you, me, Cragen, Munch, Fin, Tucker and Jessie can get without a foot of them. They're safe but there are seven other babies missing their Mommies who need our help before they turn out like Sandy Burns." Elliot explained gently.
"I know, I'm just scared El, first day back at work and a threat is made against my babies, what do you expect me to do?" Olivia sighed.
"Be strong Liv, we'll get him before he gets anywhere near Amy and Sophie." Elliot smiled at her, he wanted nothing more to wrap his arms around her but as she was driving it was impossible.
"Ok, let's talk about something else." Olivia shrugged wanting to focus on anything but the fear she had inside.
"Ok what about Mo's birthday." Elliot suggested.
"Oh yes! I knew there was something, I want to get her a car." Olivia explained.
"What?" Elliot asked.
"Just something small, cheap and second hand that will get her from A to B." Olivia explained smiling.
"Ok but you do know Katie will freak out." Elliot laughed imagining his sixteen year olds reaction.
"I don't care El, Katie can have a car on her seventeenth too but right now we need to focus on Maureen's birthday and I want to make it special for her, she's becoming a woman now and if she had a car of her own it would make our lives a little easier." Olivia explained further.
"How?" Elliot asked intrigued at what she meant.
"If we're working late on a high priority case with no time to spare she can pick the twins up from day care and stuff." Olivia explained. "She can also be a little more independent not having to ask us for a lift everywhere. She's passed her test and she's a big girl and I trust her to be sensible." Olivia added knowing that Elliot just didn't want to see his daughter become an adult.
"Fine!" He laughed. "Fine, when we get the chance we'll go and find Maureen a car."
Olivia beamed as she pulled over outside their home. She unbuckled her seatbelt and leant over, Elliot reacting and leaning over to her planting a gentle kiss on each other's lips.
"I love you El."
"I love you too Liv." He smiled as she wrapped her hands around his neck deepening the kiss.
Whilst they made out the both forgot the horrors they had seen that day, forgot the face of Sandy Burns and the pain of the threat towards their babies.
"Come on, or I'm going to have to get you naked right here." Elliot laughed.
"Oh if only!" Olivia laughed dropping on last gentle kiss on his lips before jumping out of the car.
They walked to the door and they were just on the steps when Olivia spotted the black bin bag.
"What's this?" She asked opening the bin bag. "Oh my God Elliot!" Olivia gasped stumbling backwards into his arms.
He held her tight as he looked at the now open bin bag.
"I'll call it in." He whispered grabbing his phone from his pocket.
"Who would do such a thing?" She asked as tears flooded down her face.
"I don't know baby, hold on... Captain it's Stabler, we've got a ten double zero, ten twenty five on our hands, we need Warner and CSU at our house stat." Elliot's voice shook as he explained down the phone as soon as Cragen hung up he wrapped his arms tighter around Olivia who was shaking like a leaf into him.
It took minutes for everyone to arrive. Cragen dived out of the passenger seat of a police Sedan and rushed over to the couple who were still stood wrapped around each other.
"Come on, out of the way so Warner can get to work." Cragen explained his hand on Olivia's back to push them to get away. Olivia and Elliot rushed over to Fin and Munch.
"What is it?" Munch asked having not heard what Elliot had said down the phone.
"Another baby." Elliot whispered as tears stung his eyes.
"Let's get you both back to the precinct. I need to know if CSU and the bomb squad can search your house Olivia, Donnelly has form remember." Cragen explained.
"Of course, El give them your keys, I want to drive back to the precinct." Olivia replied numbly.
She got into her SUV and fired up the engine as Elliot climbed into the passenger seat.
"Are you ok?" He asked her softly.
"Yeah, let's just get out of here." She replied putting the car into drive and speeding from the house as quick as she could.
Manhattan SVU
3.49 pm
Olivia rushed into the precinct and straight to Cragen's office. Jessie managed to stop Elliot to find out what had happened.
"Elliot tell me? Cragen just told me to wait here." Jessie explained having been able to jump in front of Elliot stopping him rushing after Olivia.
"Another baby Jess, on our doorstep now if you don't mind I want to see my babies." Elliot explained before rushing past and leaving Jessie gobsmacked.
Jessie gathered herself together before following the route Elliot had taken into Cragen's office. What she found brought tears to her eyes. Olivia and Elliot sat side by side with a baby in their arms. Olivia was resting her head on Elliot's shoulder with tear tracks down her cheeks. Jessie had to blink back her own tears as she went to sit down with them.
"Sorry Jess." Olivia mumbled.
"What are you apologising for?" Jessie asked softly.
"Being such a mess, I just, oh my God that poor baby, Sandy Burns and now a second one." Olivia explained.
"Don't apologise Olivia none of this is your fault." Jessie replied as she stroked Amelia's forehead with her finger, Amelia grinning cheekily from Olivia's arms.
"I can't help it, I mean, Tony Donnelly's involved, that's a connection to me there and then the threat against Amy and Sophie ... I just ... oh God I don't think I can do this job anymore." Olivia explained.
"Liv, you'll be ok. You have me and Jessie and Cragen, Munch and Fin you'll be fine, we'll find this bastard if it's the last thing we do." Elliot explained as Olivia's phone began to ring.
"Benson." She answered trying to hide the fact that she was crying. "Ok Cap, no we'll stay here. No problem. Bye."
"What is it?" Elliot asked as Olivia kept her phone.
"He's sent uniforms to The Garden School to pick up the kids and bring them here." Olivia replied.
"Why?" Elliot asked.
"I don' think he wants us near the house for a while, nor the kids." Olivia explained.
"I get that, but we have to work this case Olivia." Elliot replied.
"I know, we will, I will get him if it's the last thing I do Elliot." Olivia stated firmly, she was a bag of mixed emotions and that made her a very dangerous woman.
Manhattan SVU
4.36 pm
"Mom! Dad! What's going on?" Calvin asked rushing into the office.
"Baby, it's nothing to worry about ok, we just need you here." Olivia explained taking Calvin into her arms.
"Why is there a picture of Tony Donnelly on that board then mom?" Calvin asked having looked at the crime board before entering the office.
"He's missing baby, he's not in prison anymore for some reason and we found his fingerprints at a crime scene but don't worry you'll be safe here, you'll be guarded by officer's at all times and then Cassie will be here till about ten and then she'll be back again in the morning." Olivia explained as she stroked Calvin's hair.
"Is he coming after me?" Calvin asked.
"No baby, no he's threatened Amy and Sophie." Olivia told him, knowing it was best to be honest with him.
"What?" Calvin asked.
"I know it's scary but you'll all be fine." Olivia looked at the other four children who were watching her.
"Ok Mom we believe you." Maureen smiled.
"Yes, we know we're safe here don't we?" Katie added.
"Yeah!" Dickie and Lizzie smiled.
"Ok, now you are not to leave this room without an adult, ok guys? I mean it!" Olivia smiled taking a step back to look at all the children.
They all nodded and Olivia made her way into the bullpen where Elliot and Jessie were stood with Cragen, Munch and Fin.
"Where do we go from here?" Olivia asked as she arrived at their side.
"Well we're just waiting for CSU to finish at your place and then as soon as they have something we'll move from there, we also need to go to Sing Sing, see what they have to say for themselves, I've managed to pull up some of the arrest record for Donnelly and we have the proof that he was taken to Sing Sing after he was found guilty." Cragen explained.
"I think we should check up on Vivian." Olivia stated making everyone turn form the Captain to her. "She's married to him, I think we should check the prison visitors log see if there is a consistency and track down the people who visit her, don't tell me if he got out of Sing Sing that he didn't visit her and I bet he wrote to her to." Olivia explained.
"I'll call Sealview and have a search of her cell for any and all letters that she's received before you visit so that she doesn't get rid of them." Cragen explained before heading over to Munch's desk to do the call being unable to use his office.
Olivia looked around at her co-workers, everyone seemed to have the same worried look on their face as they struggled to cope with this case. Olivia's phone beeped with a text and as she looked at it she sighed deeply before passing it to Elliot.
Got something for you, Donnelly's hair, in the black bag that had the body. O'Hallaran.
"Well there's no denying he's involved, that the prints were a coincidence." Elliot sighed handing the phone back to Olivia.
"What is it?" Fin asked.
"Hair, Donnelly's, in the bag with the baby." Olivia replied just as her phone began to ring.
"Benson." She answered trying to sound formal and not defeated. "Yes, ok, thank you. Bye."
"Who?" Elliot asked looking at her.
"Warner, I.D on the body, Detective Natalie O'Connor's is a familial match to the eight month old." Olivia explained as tears pricked her eyes.
"Do you want Munch and I to do it?" Fin asked seeing how upset Olivia was.
"No." Olivia shook her head. "No, Jessie and I will go you can wait on Cragen." Olivia replied, she was the lead on this case and she was determined to see it through to the end.
"Ok drive safe." Elliot replied dropping a gentle kiss onto her head knowing she needed to feel his connection.
O'Connor residency
5.14 pm
"Hi Detective Benson, Taylor, Manhattan SVU could we come in?" Olivia asked the red head woman who looked so worn and tired.
"Yes of course, right this way." She sighed opening the door for them and showing with her hand which way the detectives should go.
They went through to the living room and once again Olivia found a room littered with family portraits.
"So what can I do you for?" Natalie O'Connor asked already knowing why they were there but unable to truly accept it.
"Ms O'Connor, your daughter's body was found earlier today." Olivia explained softly.
"Ok." The woman nodded trying to blink back the tears wanting to save it till she was alone. "How did she... how did she die?"
"One stab wound to the upper torso." Olivia replied gently.
"Same as the Burns kid?" O'Connor asked having been told about the Burns daughter.
"Yes, we do believe they are linked." Olivia explained, they didn't just believe, they knew that Tony Donnelly was involved in both murders.
"Thank you Detectives." Natalie replied nodding her head and vigorously blinking to stop herself from crying.
"Ok, is there anyone we can call for you?" Olivia asked.
"No, no, my Mom has just gone to get some groceries, she won't be long." Natalie explained. "Just please Detective Benson, find out who hurt Missy." She pleaded clutching Olivia's hand.
"I will Natalie, I will if it's the last thing I do." Olivia replied.
She and Jessie left the house both feeling drained and tired but knowing that tonight they weren't getting a moment sleep and they knew they wouldn't rest until Tony Donnelly was back behind bars.
So we have two dead babies, Tony Donnelly involved in both, where am I going with this?
Well give me reviews and I'll upload! ;) :P
