Please review! You guys are great! I love you soooo much!
"Does he hurt you anywhere else?" Huang asked Summer.
Summer dropped the Barbie doll and shook her head. "He just hurts me there."
Huang nodded. "Has your uncle Mike said anything to you about the things he does to hurt you?"
Summer nodded and teared up. "He said that nobody would understand. He told me not to tell Daddy." She paused. "I want my daddy."
"But Summer, we're talking now. Can you wait to see Daddy?" Huang asked.
"No!" Summer yelled. "I want Daddy!"
Just then, Elliot burst through the door and squatted down. He looked at Huang. "Interview is over." He looked at Summer. "C'mon baby." Summer ran over to him and wrapped her little arms around his neck before he walked out with her. "It's okay. Daddy's got you." He rubbed her back and kissed her head as he walked over to Olivia. "Jeez Liv, she's trembling."
Olivia gently laid a hand on her daughter's head and looked into her blue eyes. "You did great, Murmur. We're going to go home soon, okay?" Summer nodded. "Okay."
All three jumped when they heard a loud crash that sounded like shattering glass. "What was that?" Elliot asked.
"I don't know." Olivia breathed. "I'm going to go check it out. That sounded like the interrogation room where Fin and John were."
"I'll go with you." Elliot said. He kissed Summer's head before setting her down. "Can you hide under Mommy's desk for me?" Summer nodded and crawled under the desk. He was thankful that nobody was around to scare her. "I'll be right back. Just stay here." He hurried over to where Olivia went. They walked into the interrogation room to find John and Fin moving the table that was on top of them. "What happened?"
"I don't know. One minute, we were talking calmly with him. The next, we're on the floor with this table on us and the mirror is shattered." John groaned getting up.
Fin shook out his clothes. "Where is he?"
"I don't know, but we're going to find out." Olivia said through gritted teeth. She and Elliot hurried out to the hallway. "He's not by the elevators."
"NO!" Summer shrieked from the squad room. Elliot ran as fast as he could and growled when he saw Mike squatting down in front of Olivia's desk reaching for Summer.
He ran over and grabbed Mike's collar before pushing him onto the ground. Olivia hurried over and blocked Summer from seeing Elliot. "You son of a bitch!" Elliot yelled delivering punches to Mike's face. "How could you hurt my daughter? You were like family!"
Elliot couldn't stop as his fists contined to pummel Mike's face. All he could see was Summer crying, telling them what Mike did to her. Her little voice yelling at Huang, shrieking at Mike. He had never heard Summer that way. Anybody that made his daughter that mad or scared, deserved to be beaten. Huang was going to, but Mike...Mike was on his bucket list.
Elliot continued to punch the air in front of him as Fin and John pulled him up and off of Mike. Cragen and a uniformed officer yanked Mike up off the floor and slammed him into the wall before cuffing him and taking him away. Fin and John let Elliot go when Mike was out of the room. He looked over at Olivia when he heard her voice.
"Baby, c'mon. It's okay. He's gone now." Olivia said softly and helped Summer out from under her desk. Summer looked around and gripped her mother's neck. Elliot felt his heart break when he could visibly see Summer shaking in Olivia's arms. "Shhh, Mommy's got you. You are safe." She held Summer to her as she walked over to Elliot. Elliot wrapped his arms around both of them.
"Elliot, Olivia, why don't you take Summer home now?" Cragen suggested patting Elliot's shoulder. "Summer has been through enough. We have the photo ID, her statement, all we need is his DNA."
"We got it." A uniformed officer said jogging in. "I was just at the M.E. They told me to bring it here right away. I figured it was important."
"You'd be right." Cragen breathed grabbing the folder out of the officer's hand. "Thanks."
"No problem." He said before hurrying back out.
"Well?" Elliot asked as he looked at Cragen. He was just staring down at the folder.
Cragen looked up at Elliot and handed him the folder. "He kidnapped a lot more kids than we thought."
Elliot furrowed his brow and took the folder. "Oh my God!"
"How many kids did he kidnap?" Olivia asked looking at her husband's shocked face.
"Eight, Summer was his first kidnapping. His last one was up in Jersey. They found her inside a cooler at the park." Elliot said tearing up realizing how close he actually came to losing his daughters. "All of them have died except for Summer and then that one that we got a while ago."
Olivia gripped her daughter a little bit tighter. "Wh-wh-why did he kill the rest of them except for Summer and Nora."
Elliot looked at the information about each child. "They were the only two that were under a year old." He looked at Cragen. "Is there anymore?"
"No, as far as we know, Summer was his first victim." Cragen sighed. "We haven't made any connections with Mike and the other victims besides the DNA."
"That's because there is no connection." Huang said walking up to them. "I talked to Mike earlier. He is fixated on Summer. All the victims, look like her. Each one has brown hair and blue eyes. That's part of the reason why he killed the victims over a year old. They didn't remind him of Summer."
"Are you telling me that creep is obsessed with my daughter?" Olivia asked stunned.
Huang looked at Cragen. "You didn't show them the pictures from his apartment."
"I didn't think they needed to see that." Cragen said sternly. "I think you telling them will be enough."
Huang nodded once and turned to look back at Elliot and Olivia. "He had multiple pictures of Summer with you two or another family or friend of yours. He also took pictures of his victims when he was attacking them. Every single one, he kept around the picture of your daughter." He took a breath knowing this was hard for the two parents in front of them. "He has made this imaginary relationship with Summer and thinks that it's healthy."
"If he gets out, will he come after her?" Elliot asked softly.
"I don't think he'll be getting out since he killed six girls and kidnapped eight, but...if he does get out, he could." Huang nodded.
"Then, we need to make sure he doesn't get out." A woman said from behind them. She walked up to them and held out her hand. "I'm Summer Stabler's attorney thanks to Captain Donald Cragen."
"Sonya!" Cragen smiled lightly seeing her. "I'm glad you could make it."
"Well, when you said that their was a little girl that was abused, I came as fast as I could." Sonya said. She looked at Olivia. "I'm guessing your Summer's mother."
"You'd be correct." Olivia nodded and shook the woman's hand. "I'm Olivia. This is my husband Elliot, and this is our daughter, Summer."
Sonya nodded. "Sonya Paxton, nice to meet you." She shook Elliot's hand. "How long have you two been married? You guys look really young to have a two year old daughter."
"Well, by the time this gets to court, she'll be three." Olivia smirked and kissed her daughter's head.
Elliot put a hand on Olivia's back. "We've been married for six years now. We've been together for about seven now." Olivia nodded. "We have a five year old named Dickie. Then, this is Summer. We also have a one year old son named Kendle."
"Wow, you two must really love each other." Sonya smiled lightly.
"We do." Olivia and Elliot said at the same time and smiled at each other.
Sonya chuckled. "Well, I want to ask before I forget. Your last name is Stabler. Is that in any relation to Joseph Stabler?"
Elliot suddenly got a bad vibe. "Yeah, he was my father. How'd you know him?"
"Oh, uh, I worked with him on a c-couple of cases. He was a g-good cop." Sonya stuttered. She quickly got a hold of herself. "Well, I guess I better be filled in on what's going on. It was nice meeting you. I'll call you when I need to talk to Summer. I probably won't have to until prepping her for her testimony."
"Wait, testimony? You have his DNA on all eight victims." Elliot said irritated. This woman was not being completely honest with him and if she was going to put his daughter on the stand, he would not be doing any favors for her anytime soon.
Sonya looked at Elliot for a moment. "A jury is more sympathetic to a victim when they see what she is like. The more they like us, the longer Mike goes to prison. I'm doing this to help your daughter."
"You'd be making her sit in front of a room full of people while she told a jury what that bastard did to her." Elliot yelled. Olivia covered her daughter's ears and held her to her chest knowing that Elliot needed to do this. "I want Mike to rot in a deep dark hole just like every other guy out there with a daughter, but I don't want my daughter to be scared for the rest of her life."
"I don't want to have to suppena your daughter." Sonya threatened. "I can do that if I need to, but it's better when everyone cooperates." She said right before her and Cragen disappeared into his office. Elliot mumbled a few choice words as he turned around. He took a deep breath when he saw Olivia leaning against her desk with Summer huddled to her chest.
"I don't like it either, but El. I don't want him coming after Summer if he gets out." Olivia breathed. "If Mike is taken out of the court room for her testimony, would that make it better?"
Elliot paused. "I guess it would. I just don't want her to become...not herself. I want her to feel like she can be herself without worrying about something. We've seen that in countless victims, and they were full grown women."
"I know." Olivia nodded. "I don't want her to be that way either." She rubbed her daughter's back and kissed her head. "She finally stopped trembling."
"That's good." Elliot breathed. "Let's go home."
