Forgive me! I know it's really weird, but I wrote most of this during lunch, yesterday! I was listening to her sing at the Nurses' Ball again, and I thought she had the right vocal range for this song! Plus, the situation seemed almost perfect. I did change a few of the lyrics, but it still flows and makes sense...I hope. Enjoy! Hobey-ho, let's go!
Liesl Obrecht was furious, worried, vengeful, but above all: scared out of her mind. Her son, whom she'd only just started getting to know, was missing in action. The department had gotten no word from him or his partner, Detective Falconeri, since they had located the shack where some Falstralian lunatic was holding two young women. They should have been back by now. Nathan should have been safe in Port Charles, but he wasn't. Anna Duvain suspected something had gone wrong, but she didn't know what. No one at PCPD had any answers for her, so she took matters into her own hands.
She called Nathan's father, Victor Cassadine for help. Instead, she got a lecture for not telling him about Nathan, and a sinking feeling that he was the one holding her son.
So, she turned to the only other being she knew who could possibly help her. It had been a long time, but still, she fell to her knees and called out to Him.
"God on High, hear my prayer.
In my need, you have always been there.
He is young; he's afraid.
Let him rest heaven-blessed.
Bring him home! Bring him home! Bring him home.
He is the son I might have known,
If God had granted me the time.
The summers die, one by one.
How soon they fly, on and on
Before I'm old, before I'm gone.
Bring him peace. Bring him joy.
He is young; he is only a boy.
You can take. You can give.
Let him be. Let him live!
And if I die, let me die!
But let him live. Bring him home.
Bring him home.
Bring him home!"
With a final "Amen," Liesl stood and made her way back to Commissioner Duvain's office. "Commissioner!" she called, bursting through the open door. Anna, Britt, and Nicholas all stared at her, but Anna was the first to recover from her shock.
"Look, I told you what would happen if you came in here unannounced-"
"Nathan and the others," Liesl interrupted. "I think I have an idea of where they are."
