Chapter Eleven: You Found Me.

Dominick 

It has been almost a week since Alisha went missing, and we were all worried sick. We've been trying to track her cell phone, there are posters up everywhere about him. 

Rafael was blaming himself, Olivia wasn't sleeping. None of us really were. Amanda was angry at all of us for letting her go home. But how were we suppose to know that he would find out where she lived? 

"Guys, we just a got a ping on her cell phone, it came on just a few minutes ago. She is somewhere on the outside of Staten Island." Olivia says, "Let's go." Amanda says.

About 45 minutes later, with the FBI on standby, we surrounded the house. We knew she was in there, he had looked out the window. 

"Michael, if you come out with Alisha now...this will all go away" Olivia calls, "I don't think she's going to be coming out. She's a little busy right now" Michael says.

My Gut twisted, what did he do to her? If he killed her, he wouldn't be walking out of that house alive.

Amanda and I had gone around the back of the house, I walk up the back door and it was unlocked. I slowly open it, walking inside. Michael was sitting at the front window, with a gun in his hand. I saw Alisha, not moving on a mattress to his left. She was bruised, her face was covered in dried blood and she was wearing nothing but a white tank top and shorts.

"Alisha was right. I wouldn't make it out of here alive." Michael says, laughing slightly. "All I did was love her," he says.

"Love her? You raped her when she was 19. You kidnapped her and did God knows what to her." Amanda says. "Wanna hear what I did to her?" "Shut your mouth," I say, raising my gun.

He stands up, "Don't go near her." I hiss, "But isn't she so pretty?" he moves towards her and I fired my gun, he fell to the floor and I ran to Ali, Amanda ran to him to make sure he wasn't going to get up.

"Ali, it's me. Sonny..." I say, checking her pulse. It was weak, "Call a bus!" I scream out the window. The front door swung open and Olivia and Rafael came in. Rafael nearly fell to his knees when he saw her.

Her eyes slowly opened, she looks at me. "You found me...I knew you would..." and she passes out. I pick her up and carry her out of the house, everyone was silent. 

Rafael 

We sat at the hospital for what seemed like days but was only a couple hours. The nurse came out, "Family for Miller?" she says, we all stood up. "She doesn't have any family here. We're all she has." Olivia says. 

"Understandable. Olivia, you're her commander right?" Olivia nods. "Can you come with me?" Olivia looks at me, "Rafael, you come too" she says.

We follow the nurse to a private room, "She took a beating. Looks like he raped and beat her repeatedly. She was deprived of food and water, it looks like she resorted back to cutting herself and or he cut her." "Wait, resorted back too?" I ask.

"In her medical records, she attempted suicide by cutting about 7 years ago. He must've known about it and used it against her or let her do it to herself. With the fluids she has running in her, she should be awake in the next couple hours, but refrain from asking her anything until she is ready." 

We nod and she leaves. "How is Ali going to get over this?" I ask Olivia, "With our help Rafael. With our help." 

We walk back to where everyone else was and give them the bad news.  Amanda almost cried, Fin just looks down and Carisi walks off, I follow him.

"Carisi?" I ask, "I'm her partner, I should've protected her!" he says, leaning against a wall and crying. 

"We all should've. I should have gone home with her. We shouldn't have let her go home alone." I say, "You cannot blame yourself for what a monster did to her."

"Guys, she's awake." Amanda says, "The nurse said it wouldn't be for another few hours," I say. "I guess you can say our little Ali is a fighter," Amanda says.
