Prologue:The curves and corners of Port Charles' roads were harsh and rough as Jason drove, nearly 30 miles over the speed limit. He was lucky that it was close to midnight, or that would give him more than one problem. Not like he cared, but that would be a delay he couldn't afford right now. He had to get to Micheal, and A.J., before he could get away with the boy. He just hoped that Faith wasn't lying about their location or where AJ planned to take his estranged son. She was dying, why would she lie? Then again, Faith always lied, so why was Jason expecting the fact that she was close to breathing her last breath to make her tell the truth? Especially to him or Sonny?
Because he needed it. He didn't want to think about what would happen if she were lying. For once, he wasn't sure if he'd be able to handle it. He knew Sonny and Carly wouldn't, but that was nothing new, really, if he were being completely honest. They would break, predictably. Everyone wouldn't be surprised if Jason broke down, but no one would expect him to.
Kristina and Morgan were okay, Micheal had to be, too. They couldn't stop believing that, his life depended on it.
Jason started to see smoke in the sky when he was about a mile from the warehouse. Damn it!, he screamed inwardly. Faith had done something before they found her, she most have given A.J. an order.
Who was ordering who, Jason didn't know. He only assumed it was Faith in charge and A.J. following because the plan was elaborate. A.J. didn't have the means, the brains or the audacity to conceive a plan as intricate as Faith's.
He couldn't lose focus now, even though it was hard not to. He wanted to speed up, he knew the SUV could go faster and handle the pot-hole filled streets, but there could still be cops out, unless Mac or Ric put out a call to all the men on duty to tell them not to pull him over. But how would they know it was him until they did pull him over? They wouldn't.
Jason wouldn't stop anyway, even if they shot at him, but he'd prefer not to have one of those loud cars chasing after him. It would only draw even more attention to a complicated situation and possibly spook A.J and whoever was with him and Micheal.
Behind him, he didn't notice the small blue Jeep that followed. HIs blue eyes were focused only on what was ahead.
Courtney was just doing her best to stay a good distance behind Jason's SUV. SHe didn't want him to think that she was someone with Faith. She had no idea where he was going, but she could only assume that it had everything to do with her red headed nephew. Jason was furious, she saw that on his face when he sped by her at a corner, but she'd though he'd catch onto her following him already. She'd been doing so for about ten minutes, and he could norally tell if he was being tailed.
Well, he is focused on the kids, she allowed.
As both vehicles approached the warehouse, Courtney sloed the Jeep down and held back. What's going on here? she whispered quietly to herself. She watched as Jason got his SUV closer to the building and got out.
