Author's note:
Okay, this story pretty much covers everyone in the show. I kinda tried to write it like an episode so the chapter breaks are the commercials four chapters to an episode.
Personally, I am a Matt and Elizabeth shipper but i wanted to get a feel of it being like watching the show. I am following most of the current storyline and spoilers as i have read them. I hope you like it please read and review. I've only written the first few chapters after that i look forward to your advice and suggestions. I do not own General Hospital or any of the characters I am using in this story.
The mob war in Port Charles heats up as innocent bystanders become the latest victims as Sonny Corinthos and Anthony Zacchara's men shoot it out in the park.
Several people arrive at General Hospital a few wounds are superficial. One person is dead and two people wind up in surgery.
Chapter One
Elizabeth smiled as she and her son Cameron joined Robin, Patrick and Emma at the bench in the park to enjoy an evening of ice skating. "Hey guys thanks for inviting Cam and I to come with you tonight we've been excited about it all day haven't we big guy?" Cam nodded to his mom and hid a shy smile as he squirmed in his jacket. "Mommy, can we skate now?" Elizabeth laughed. And told him they would go in a little bit. "Where's Matt?"She asked Patrick, as he tied on his ice skates.
"He's just grabbing another blanket out of the car. The sissy was too cold" Patrick answered.
"The sissy was getting the blanket for your wife. So watch it, ." Matt said as he returned handing the blanket to Robin as she laughed at the familiar banter between the two men. "Elizabeth. Hi. Glad you could join us" He said with a huge smile. Robin and Patrick exchanged knowing smiles at Matt. Knowing of the growing feelings the two had been so painfully trying to hide for the past couple of months.
It started when Matt confided in Elizabeth about his research and had steadily grown. From his care for her after she had been kidnapped by Anthony Zacchara's thugs at the bakery, through his break up with Maxie, and Lucky's leaving for Ireland. The two had been spending a lot of time together. Robin was just happy to see her friend smiling again. And as much as she loved her cousin, she was all wrong for Matt and was very happy to be reunited with Damien Spinelli.
Elsewhere in the park…..
Sam, Molly and Alexis were finishing tying on their skates. "Mom, when is Kristina going to be coming home?" Molly asked Alexis referring to her sister who had been going through rehab for the surgery she had a couple months ago.
"Your sister will be home next week, Sweety. I told you that. Her physical therapy is going very well."
Sam stood up and helped Molly to her feet, the two sisters holding on to each other for balance. "Alright, Munchkin, let's go take a turn about the pond." The two young women headed for the pond leaving Alexis there on the bench watching the pair skate off with a smile on her face. Her cell went off and she reached into her pocket a little shocked at the name on the screen. "Ric?"
Also in the park…
Dante and Lulu were sharing a close moment in the Gazebo as they were recently reconciled. After a tense few months, Lulu had finally agreed to move in with him and they had decided to go to dinner to celebrate and were taking a walk in the park after their meal.
"So, now that you have finally settled the drug ring case, what are you going to be working on now?" Lulu asked. "If you can't tell me, I understand, but I'd like to know" Lulu leaned her head onto his shoulder and Dante tightened his arm around her.
"Mac wants me to look into what is going on with Anthony and Johnny Zacchara-"
"The mob again? Dante I don't want you getting into that with your Dad-"
"I know, Babe, I know. But who has better access and insight than me huh? I'll be careful I promise" Dante dropped a kiss onto Lulu's brow as they headed into the gazebo.
Across town…
Sonny threw a glass across the room in anger and growing frustration with the Zaccharas. "This has gone too far! I've had it! He came after my son this time. Michael is sitting in the hospital with a concussion from what they did! This time they are going to pay!" Max and Milo nodded. Standing across the room from him, Max looked over at Milo and nodded and Milo quickly snuck out of the room, taking out his phone.
"Ah Boss, don't you think we should take a second-?" Max began.
"NO! No more waiting! Tonight! Tonight those bastards pay. Get the men together."
At a Johnny's Penthouse…
Johnny was pacing back and forth across the room. As his father sat in his chair and watched him.
"You've gone too far this time! Sonny is not going to let this go." Johnny walked to the side bar and grabbed a bottle out.
"Johnny you've got to relax. Have a drink play a ditty on your little piano. Don't worry about Sonny. One of my guys just called. Sonny is definitely coming after us and we'll be ready for him." He said ominously.
