"You bastard!" Claudia yelled running down the hospital corridor, shoving Sonny. "How could you let this happen!?!" She kept yelling. The need for her to collapse was evident, but instead she went with shoving and yelling at Sonny.

"Claudia stop!" Johnny said, coming up from behind her, holding her. She was shaking, he felt it.

"You were supposed to protect her! This wasn't part of the deal, Sonny. Our whole plan is shot to hell!" She yelled at him again, tearing him up inside. Not that she cared.

"You don't think I know that, Claudia!" He spat venomously. "Look I didn't know someone was going to be there. I've been out of the business for seven years now." He told her information she already knew.

"Look we need to focus on her right now so both of you shut the hell up!" Johnny finally got his words in. Just minutes ago he learned that this little was his niece, now he could lose her.

"What are you even doing here?" Sonny asked him. He had always hated Johnny. And he had to take his anger out on someone.

"I'm here for my sister and for my niece." Johnny explained. This secret had been tearing at him and now it was sitting in front of him about to slap him in the face.

"Will you both shut up?! No one knows that I'm her mother, yet." Claudia said walking away looking in the window of the room, watching the nurses work on her daughter. Sonny and Johnny followed close behind her, afraid that the grief would weigh to heavy on her and she would fall. Yet no tears fell from her eyes. "You kept me from her." She said looking at Sonny.

"Don't you dare start with me. If I hadn't talked you out of getting an abortion she wouldn't even be here." Sonny spat, remembering all the memories he ever had with his daughter.

"This would've never happened then would it? We could have forgot what we once had and moved on." Johnny took note of the pain in his sister's eyes as he silently watched their argument. "Not that you didn't do that anyway. Look she knows I'm her mother and I will be there with her."

"Fine, but don't you dare try to take my daughter away from me." Claudia just shook her head, trying to remember what she ever saw in Sonny. Johnny took her in his arms seeing the tears start to come. He let her go when he saw Kate Howard walk up to them. She took Sonny in her arms.

"Sonny I'm so sorry! Is she okay?" Kate threw herself all over him. Claudia seethed watching her do this while her daughter was fighting for her life. Kate turned herself toward Claudia. "What are you doing here?" Claudia opened her mouth but instead Sonny answered.

"Kate this isn't the time for that." He shook his head, trying to get her to leave it alone.

"I just want to know why this tramp is here, bugging you when your daughter is fighting for her life." Claudia clamped her eyes when Kate said 'your' indicating that Cassie wasn't hers too. Johnny took immediate notice of this and grabbed his sister's arm as the doctor approached.

"I need immediate family members ONLY to follow me." He said as Claudia and Sonny went to follow. Claudia looked back to see Kate wit her eyes wide open. This kept a smirk on Claudia's face for two seconds before she remembered her current situation. Her and Sonny were led into a small conference.

"How is our daughter, doctor?" Sonny asked. Both parents looked intensely at the doctor as he reviewed the notes. Claudia used a nearby wall to support herself until Sonny wrapped his arm around her, helping her balance.

"Mr. Corinthos, Ms. Zacchara, your daughter is……."

I know what you all are thinking: "She's starting another one?!" This isn't going to be very long, but this idea has been in my head for a very long time. There is a major back story to this, which is just a flash forward. So here are a few questions. Did their daughter live? Why did no one know that Claudia was her mother? Will she make it?
