Next morning. And Amaya has split from her husband.
Amanda's POV:
At 6 am I hear cries and get up. I head out and go into Mason's room. I lift the little toddler up and soothe him.
"Good morning little man." I whisper and take him over to his change table.
I sit him down on it and he watches me. I get out a little outfit. It's a green shirt and some cute blue trousers.

Masons outfit.

I brush his hair and put on his shoes before taking him downstairs and supervising him on the rug, playing with cars. I hear footsteps and see Sam behind me. She comes over. I lift up the five year old.
"Good morning Samantha Jade." I murmur.
Next thing I know, Lucy is coming down.
"Hey Lucy, did you get back to sleep?" I ask her
"Yeah, thanks Amanda." She replies.
"Please, Am or manda is fine." I smile, "I've told you this."
"Sorry." She playfully surrenders
"Could you watch Mase whilst I get Sam ready? He's just on the rug." I question
She nods and I take Samantha upstairs and into her room. I sit her on her bed and grab a dress out of her closet and dress her in it.

Sam's dress

I take her downstairs and start to make breakfast. I cook up 10 eggs and make some cereal for mason. Liv comes down followed by Noah. I serve up 5 plates of eggs on toast and everyone takes a seat at the table. Lucy puts Mason in his high chair. I place his cereal on his tray and sit down. We all eat our breakfast. We finish up and Liv cleans up. I take the kids upstairs so that Lucy can get dressed. I take them into the bathroom. Noah brushes his teeth and I brush Sam's. I then let Noah take Sam downstairs to put on their shoes and I take mason to his room and put on some little boots. I take him downstairs and put the kids jackets on them.
"Liv, Lucy, we've got to go!" I call,
They run downstairs and we head out to the car. Lucy helps buckle in the kids and we all drive to the 1-6. We all get out and head up. Noah runs ahead to fin.
"Uncle Fin!" Noah smiles
"Noah!" Fin smiles
"Hey fin, come into my office, kids, go into the playroom, Noah, will you take siblings in."  Liv smiles as I pass Mason to Noah.
"Yeah, come on," he smiles and takes his siblings into the playroom.
Fin follows me, Liv and Lucy into Livia's office. We sit down.
"What's up Liv?" Fin asks
"We've got a case." Liv tells him.
"Alright, VIC at Mercy or Bellevue?" He asks
"Uhhh, right here." Lucy raises her hand softly
"Oh man, uh." Fin sighs
"I'll take her statement fully but I want you to background search Richard Michaelson." Liv tells him, "Am, call in the crew."
I nod and slip into an interrogation room for quiet. I call Liz.
"Stabler!" She answers
"Hey Liz, it's Rollins, we got a case." I tell her
"Sure, I'll be there in 10." She ends the call.
I call Amaya.
"Benson!" She answers, going back to her maiden name.
"Hey Maya it's Amanda, we've got a case." I tell her
"K, can I drop the kids at yours, my sitters away." She asks
"That's the thing. Lucy is the victim." I exclaim.
"Oh, uh, hold on, my neighbour might look after them. He is so sweet and loves the kids." She replies, "see you soon."
I end that call and call in Kat. I head back out. Lucy is in with the kids. I go and lean by my desk. Liz and Kat run in.

Liv's POV:
"Suspect is Richard Michaelson. Thirty seven. Lives at 76 west craters. Is quite a profited and popular land lord." I exclaim, "Liz call Barba for a warrant."
Liz calls Barba then we wait for him to fax it over. Amaya comes in.
"Sorry I had to drop the kids off a-" she stops as she looks at the board, "shit!"
"What?" I ask as she starts to panic.
Amaya drops and I catch her.
"Maya!" I exclai.
I lay Amaya down and she is hyperventilating.
"That- that that's my neighbour. Where's my kids are." She exclaims, pointing at the board.
I help her up and she calms down. Liz runs in.
"Got the warrant." She exclaims
"Let's go!" I order.
We run down to the cars and drive to the address. Amaya gets out.
"Amaya! Stay here!" I yell.
"But Liv, it's my kids!" She exclaims
"Yeah, I'll get them. Their my nieces." I exclaim, "I won't let them get hurt."
She sighs and goes to sit down on the hood of her car. I head up to the porch. I knock on the door.
"Richard Michaelson. NYPD!" I call.
No answer.
The door is kicked in by fin and we spread out. I hear whimpers and open the door to a room. I see Amaya's kids tied up together and mouths duct taped. Richard is holding a gun to them.
"Woah, ok, put the gun down." I exclaim.
"No, put you gun unloaded on the floor and kick it to me." He orders, pointing the gun at their heads, "or they die."
I do as he says.
"Now call out to you cop buddies to leave the house." He orders.
I go to the door.
"Leave the house!' I yell, "10-13. Call HNT! Leave the house."
"Copy!" Fin replies.
I close the door, "there, they are going."
"What did you tell them?" He asks
"I just told them 10-13, house clear, and HNT, our crime scene lab for prints. It's fine." I exclaim.
"Ok." He sighs.
"Can you please let me untie the kids." I ask
"Whatever!" He sits on the bed.
I rush over to them. Livia is 8, Mellie 10 and Lilah 14. I untie Livia first.
"Auntie!" She latches onto me.
"Hey Livia, can you go sit in the corner, right by the door." I gently ask
She nods. She heads over. I untie Mellie.
"Go join your sister!" I whisper.
I go to untie Lilah but the man stops me, "she stays."
"Ok." I tell him.
I get out my phone and type a message into notes. It tells Amanda where we are, what is happening, what has happened. and some instructions to get the kids checked out. I lock my phone.
"Can Livia take my phone out so I can't communicate to anyone?" I ask him
"Sure!" He sighs.
I go bend down beside the little girl.
"Hey, Livia, can you take my phone, carefully, outside and give it to Mommy or Auntie Mandy for me ask the, to unlock it," I ask her
"Can Mellie come with me?" She asks
I turn to Richard. He nods. I smile at Livia.
"Sure baby, go on now girls." I open the door.
They run. I close the door.

Amanda's POV:
I am pacing nervously because Liv is being held hostage. A door opens. I turn. It's Livia and Mellie.
"Livia! Mellie!" Amaya runs forward.
"Mommy!" They run for her.
She hugs them. I head over.
"Auntie Mandy, auntie Liv said to give you her phone. She wants you to unlock it." Livia holds up her phone.
I grab it, "thank you Livia."
I unlock it. I see a note.
Amanda,
We are in the back left bedroom. I came in and he had Livia, Mellie and Lilah tied up and mouths duct taped shut. I was able to untie the other two but he won't let me untie Lilah. I have my gun unloaded and taken away. I still have my radio. Please let Livia and Mellie be checked over by paramedics. When Hostage Negotiation arrive, get them to radio me. DO NOT use Mikes or Cams.
I love you,
Livvie.
I lock her phone again. I tuck it in my back pocket. HNT gets here. The boss comes over.
"What's going on?" He asks, "I'm Lieutenant Sinten."
"Captain Benson and a 14 year old girl are being held hostage in the back left bedroom by Richard Michaelson. She has her radio and wants that used as communication. No mikes or cams." I explain
He nods, "bring in The Hub." He radios
The hub is brought in and we go in. He radios.
"Captain Benson? Do you copy?" He asks.
"I copy." She responds, her voice shaky
"How is the situation." He asks
"It is good." She replies, "is Detective Rollins there?"
I am passed the radio, "Livvie?"
"Manda," she sighs
"Are you ok?" I ask
"I'm fine." She replies, "Lilah is ok as well."
"That's good, what about Richard, is there anything he needs?" I ask
"I want a car. Fully tinted windows. Keys in the ignition, not rigged. No driver!" He asks
"We can arrange that!" Sinten exclaims.
"Good, now to have some fun with Cap-Tain Ben-Son!" He exclaims, sounding out her name,
I hear punches, "Liv!" I exclaim.
Grunts are heard. Cries follow.
"Livvie!" I cry.
The radio goes silent. I hear static.
"Liv, Liv do you hear me?"
"I'm ok Aman-." Liv stops talking and it's sounds like the radio is dropped.
"Liv!" I exclaim.
I release the button.
"We have to go now!" The ESU chief Orders
I nod and he runs out. We follow and the door is busted in. We go to the back bedroom and bust open the door. I see Lilah tied up on the bed and Liv on the floor. They are both bruised. Richard is arrested. I untie Lilah. She is crying heavily.
"Auntie!" She cries.
I lift her up and cuddle her, "shhh! Shhh! Shhh! It's ok."
I carry her out as Liv is taken out on a stretcher. I get out. Amaya runs forward.
"Lilah!" She takes her daughter off me.
"Mommy!" She cries
The hug tightly. I run over to the ambulance where Liv is. We drive to the hospital and she is taken in. A couple hours later she is discharged with bruises, and cuts. We head home, ready for arraignment the next morning. We get in and Lucy looks up from the lounge room with the kids.
"Liv?" Lucy looks up, " what happened?"
"Michaelson took me and my sisters kid hostage. He was her neighbour and was watching her three girls."
She nods and we settle down for the night.
