Once again Eris finds herself sat crossed legged on a table, staring at the boards. Information whirling around her brain, the whole thing starting to ache. There has to be a link to the dark web on here somewhere but she just needs to find it.

"Kevin" Eris speaks into her phone while still staring at the board.

"Yes?" Kevin says

"Did these fake accounts follow any men? Anyone that looks out of place in this page?" Eris asks hoping there is connection there.

"Nope sorry, they only follow women. Well young girls. No one looks over the age of 16" Kevin explains before Eris hangs up the phone. She throws her head back in annoyance.

"I got you a coffee" Seb stands smiling at her side. "Lori gave me your usual order" Eris smiles at him, stuck in a loop. It's like Jay 2 years ago.

"Thank you" Eris says still smiling at him "I owe you one"

Seb sits next to Eris on the table, awfully close to her. So close that she can feel his whole body breathing and smell the aftershave on his neck. She shuffles to one side, no way she is getting involved with anyone on a case again. Or anyone in general. Not having a Jay disaster.

"Have you figured it out?" Seb asks laughing softly as Eris groans looking at the board.

"Have you got all you need? Can you leave?" Eris jokes with him, they begin laughing loudly together. "In all honesty it may seem crude and not Hollywood but this" she points between her and Seb "the laughter, the bonds we form are the only way to get through any case. Otherwise the job will sallow you and spit you back out again"

Eris looks at back at the board and then over her left shoulder to see Jay glaring at her in the doorway.

"Excuse me" Eris gracefully steps down from the table and walks out of the war room. Grabbing Jay's arm as she leaves. "Remember you are in my house now. So I can have your clearance struck at anytime Jay. Why the fuck are you glaring?"She says harshly in hush tones, pulling him to one side outside her office.

"Why the fuck are you flirting with him?"
Jay asks

"Are you fucking dumb?!" Eris asks a bit too loudly, people in the bullpen below look up at them. "Unlike you I don't fuck everyone I work with and until you I had managed not to work business and pleasure in a long time. I am being friendly to a man who has never something so graphic and it being real life" Eris points to the war room "it would be greatly appreciated if you would help out with that. Dickhead" Eris exclaims before walking into her office. Throwing herself into her office chair. "If I ever fall in love again. Just shot me in the fucking head"

Hank just laughs from other side of her office before Simmons comes bursting into the office with Rusek.

"We have just found some evidence" He exclaims, Eris looks at him confused to why there was such a big entrance for some evidence "in a know pedophiles back garden. Eris eyes light up with this info.

She grabs her jacket on the way out.

"STAN LETS GO" Eris shouts as the 4 of them run down the stairs into the bullpen and out.

Hank just smirks to himself, already calling him by his surname. One of the team and Eris is smitten.

"Run me through it" Eris says to Simmons as they drive.

"House is about 4 blocks from the drop site, boys were doing the sweep with the dogs we ordered. They scent went cold for about half a block and then it was picked up just outside backyard. Boys entered searched the garden and tucked in the corner covered up by trash and shrubbery. Was one trash can and in said trash can was a lot of bloody clothes" Simmons says.

"Dramatics are not attractive" Eris laughs as she climbs out of the SUV and walks into the garden. "Basement?" She asks, the boys around her nod and all point towards the entrance. There's a look of sorrow on their faces. She knows this isn't good.

Entering the basement, can only be described as a nightmare. Two large dog cages in the corner with crime scene already inside of them getting every last drop of evidence. One gyno table in the middle of room. She knows exactly what this is for. The guy is so cocky he hasn't even bothered to clean up yet. Eris gags into the back of her gloved hand.

"Is there where it happened?" Eris asks, the crime scene boys all nod and point to wall behind her.

As she turns she sees a whole arsenal of torture and sex equipment she gags again. Pulling herself together before Simmons and Halstead follow.

"Ok as we know from Katie he would keep these girls tied up for a long period of time. So long that their shoulders and hips dislocated. There's an imprint here" Eris points with her foot "these look to me to be like a tripod which matches that camera" she points to the top shelf, a camera pointed down at the table "I'm guessing there is a laptop somewhere here that it was connected to. By the looks of it, the camera was also recording them when he wasn't torturing them" Eris pauses, she got all she needs from this crime scene, she walks back out to the garden. "Is the homeowner home?"

"Nope, his wife gave us permission initially until she saw the search warrant" Simmons says as they get back into the car and go speeding off.

"We brought her in?" Simmons nods "Who is it?" Eris asks

"Detective Ninos of 19th precinct " Simmons says looking at her through the corner of his eyes. They pull up outside the precinct. Eris stomach drops as his pictures comes up on her phone.

"SSA Voight and Simmons. Where is Detective Ninos?" She asks politely.

"3rd floor" the receptionist says but Eris has walked off before she says anything else. Simmons stops her from calling for him. Eris walks towards him stopping at his desk "Detective Ninos" Eris cuffs him "you're under arrest for the torture and rape of Charlotte Hunter and Samantha Loubelle" Simmons continues to read him his rights as Eris walks him out of the precinct.
