Elliot was asleep in his chair when the captain showed up
"Elliot did you even go home?" the captain asked his, Elliot jumped awake
"No but we got a present from our perp" he yawned handing the captain the envelope
"A note?" he asked opening it up revealing the pictures
"And pictures, I couldn't find anything on where she might be hidden" Elliot said getting up an making a fresh pot of coffee
"This perp is just testing us" the captain said
"He left us a friendly reminder on the note" Elliot told him rubbing his eyes
"Keep looking for me and this will get worse? What does he mean? What's worse then making her relive her childhood?" The Captain asked
"I don't know maybe death?" Elliot replied
"How long has it been since she has taken her medicine?" the captain asked him looking at his watch
"About 15 hours and we have nothing on him we all know who he is and we can't arrest him" Elliot said
"We don't exactly know if it is him or not Elliot" the captain told him
"My gut says it is" Elliot said "You can't go off your gut we can't just assume that it is; just because he is a creep doesn't mean he took her. Take those pictures down to the lab maybe there will be a finger print on them" Captain told Elliot, he nodded "And Elliot put a rush on that" he finished. Elliot walked down to the lab
"Ace you need to see if there are any prints on these, this is rushed" Elliot told him walking in putting down on the lab table
"Elliot I have cases in front of you" Ace said looking through files
"Just open them and look" Elliot pushed the envelope over to him. Ace looked at him funny then finally pried the top of the envelope open, his eyes grew wide
"Is this..." he stopped Elliot nodded
"Someone has taken one of our own, that need ran and I need told ASAP, understand?" Elliot said staring at him Ace nodded and went right to it. Elliot left and was walking down the hallway he ran into the janitor
"I'm sorry" Elliot said then paused "you look familiar do I know you from somewhere?"
"No I don't think so detective" the janitor shook his head and went back to what he was doing
"Well I am sorry for bumping in to you" Elliot told him walking away. Elliot walked into the captains office and closed the door
"What is the name of that new janitor we got" Elliot asked
"Bill. Why?" Captain asked him
"He looks like Amanda's stalker, but with green eyes and facial hair and scratches on his face" Elliot said "Do you think that they are working together?" he asked the captain
"No we did a background check on him squeaky clean" the captain acknowledged. Munch walked in the office
"We got a new scrapbook on Amanda, you might want to come and see them" He announced, and then he walked out. They followed him, the pictures where spread out on a desk. The captain picked one up
"This is sick. Why is he doing this to her" the captain asked them
"He is baiting us" Elliot told him "He knows we know he has her"
"I want to know how he drops these off without getting caught" Finn said "it looks like he is drugging her too, look at the dark circles under her eyes" he finished
"Why is he doing this to her someone go call Wong!" Elliot yelled. They sat there waiting until he showed up
"What do you need?" he asked calmly
"Do us a favor and look at these photos and tell us why he is doing this" Elliot asked him brining him over to the table were the pictures were
"Is this the new detective we have here the one you asked me about?" Wong asked the captain
"Yea, and her childhood molester took her and is doing this to her" Finn answered for the captain
"Tell us why he is doing this to her" Captain asked
"Well it seems that he is trying to reenact what they did when she was younger, but the anger he has somehow she betrayed him, did she ever tell?" Wong asked them
"The only one that knows anything is Elliot" Munch said
"She told you what happened Elliot?" Wong looked at him and asked
"Yea" he said rubbing the back of his neck
"That is a big step for someone that hides something so big like that, mind telling me what happened" Wong told him
"What happened is we caught the guy that was murdering those girls. She saw him and asked why he was stalking her..." Wong cut him off
"Stalking her?" he asked
"Yea leaving her pictures and notes at her door" Elliot replied
"He is obsessed with her... But not in a good way"
"He kept the first pair of underwear he molested her in, I'd say he is" Elliot said sarcastically
"Go on" Wong told him ignoring his sarcasm
"I followed her to her apartment after she ran out after she saw him; I heard her screaming and crying so I tried to open the door she had locked it. I threatened to kick it down when she finally unlocked it and I came in. she told me that she had in fact been molested. She said she told her family over and over but they didn't believe her, but she kept telling them and they got annoyed and they confronted him about and then she told me it got worse after that then she moved away" he finished
"He is making her pay for what she did to him" Wong told them. Casey came in
"Do you have anything on him yet?" she asked
"No nothing but we took some pictures down to the lab to run them for prints" Finn said to her, she came over to the desk that everyone was circled around
"Is this her?" she asked touching a picture
"Yeah" Elliot said
"We need to get this guy" she said looking at us all
"We don't know who it is yet" Munch said. The janitor came in to clean up
"If we get a print off the thing we have been getting from him I'll get a search warrant for his house" Casey told them
"Good" Elliot said "I'd love to get my hands on him"
"No you aren't touching him" Captain said walking away
"I'd let you touch him" Munch shrugged, and walked off
"We will get him Elliot" Finn told him. Elliot was staring at the janitor "Why are you watching the janitor"
"I don't feel right about that guy" Elliot stated and went back to looking at the pictures
"You go home and I'll stay here tonight" Finn said
"No, no I have to stay, she is my partner" he told Finn
"Elliot you need sleep" Finn argued
"And Amanda needs found me sleeping won't help that" Elliot snapped
"Elliot she is one of our victims now, I'll call you if anything happens" Finn looked at him
"Anything? Even the littlest thing" Elliot asked
"You have my promise" Finn said raising his right hand
"Okay fine" Elliot said giving in, he left. The day had turned into the night
"C'mon short stack get through this" Finn pleaded
