"nypd, get your hands up!" i yell as me and carisi entered the building with our weapons drawn.
we finally got a hit on the dna that had been recovered and it was a match for a man that had already done some time. once we got the go-ahead, we planned for an undercover operation with the hope of busting the party and getting our suspect.
rollins has been inside the party for a little while undercover. this party was full of underaged people, drinking and doing who knows what.
the minute the suspect pulled a gun on her, we went in with esu.
everyone at the party had their hands up except the suspect as he made a run for it. i quickly followed him.
once he was boxed in and had nowhere to go, he looked directly at me as i yelled, "drop the gun and put your hands above your head."
after a few seconds, he gave up and he did what i had asked.
i read him his rights as i walked him to the back of mine and carisi's squad car, putting him the back of it and shutting the door.
"nice work detective." sergeant benson says.
"thank you sarge." i reply, putting my hands on my vest.
"that was an insane chase. never heard anyone yell or run like that." carisi says.
i laughed. "well when you grow up with two sisters and two brothers, you learn a thing or two."
"i have sisters too so i get it."
"i don't think you do carisi." i say. "rollins, how you holding up?"
"oh i'm fine. just another day at svu." she says. "bet you didn't think your first week would be like this."
"i definitely didn't, no."
we all got back in our squad cars and drove back to the precinct as we got him into interrogation.
of course as carisi and i tried to get something out of him, by telling him his dna was found on the girl as he claimed the sex was "consensual."
he then asked for his lawyer as me and carisi stepped out.
"this guy is really just won't give up. he really thinks we're gonna believe his story." carisi says. he was furious i could tell.
"well, we're going to take him to trial anyways. i mean he raped one girl that we know of, i'm sure he's done it to more. he's serving alcoholic drinks to minors and he was found in possession of a weapon. he will go to away for either one of those things, if not all of them." the ada, who happened to be practically family, stated.
"you really think he's raped more than one girl?" fin asks.
"absolutely but until they come forward, we only have the one." rafael says before turning to me. "el, as much as i'm happy to see you, what are you doing here? was there a homicide i'm unaware of?"
"no one died raf. i transferred to svu. this was my first week."
"ah, well welcome to the team i guess."
"you two know each other?" olivia asks.
"yes we do. it's a long story sarge." i say.
"she's not wrong." he replies.
"i see. well, let's save that story for another time then." she says as barba continued with how he prosecute michell before me and carisi go back into the squad room.
"so you and barba, huh?" he asks from his desk. did i mention our desks were facing each other?
"yes but not in the way you're thinking. it's not like that at all." i say. "he's practically family. him and my older brother are best friends and he became an older brother to me growing up, even now. "
"i see. so growing up with four siblings wasn't enough?" he joke as i laughed.
the phone then started to ring as i answered.
"manhattan special victims unit, detective russo."
"hi, um, i was raped by a man i think you have in custody."
"i'm so sorry. would you like to come down to the station and talk?"
"yes. i'll be there shortly."
"see you soon miss." i say hanging up.
"another vic?" carisi asks.
"yup." i say as i get up to tell benson and barba.
