The Worst Kind of Weapon, a General Hospital fan fic.

A/N: This story is based off of some of the recent rumors and spoilers that have been floating around the internet as of late regarding Spinelli's parentage. This is my way of taking all of those ideas and combining them into a storyline that I would like to see. I think a lot of the general ideas (like who Spin's dad is, how characters will react, how this news will be used, etc) are fairly accurate to what they would be on the show. However, expect a generally darker, more mature Spinelli. I think the upcoming story on GH regarding Spinelli is going to change the character into less of a go-to-joke into a vital figure in the story, and his attitude will probably not be as light as it has been because of it. I feel as though this one little fact regarding Spinelli will be a major factor in the upcoming storyline, a brick in a wall of great drama. Let's hear it for fall sweeps!

Prologue: A Cause for Concern

Sonny Corinthos was not easily worried or put on edge. Whenever a threat rose to greet him and his more illicit activities in the form of a takeover, he was prepared to do what was necessary to keep the power in balance in Port Charles. It came with the territory. It was…a job requirement. Many men, and women for that matter considering Faith Roscoe, had tried to step over Sonny's borders in the hopes of gaining the control and influence of the small port city, but all of these business rivals either doubted Sonny's intelligence and tenacity or had too much faith in their own skills or lack thereof.

When his mole brought him the whispers that Anthony Zacchara, a rival crime boss from up north, was sneaking his way into Port Charles, Sonny was not scared silly. Instead, Sonny considered sending out his troops to take of the task of defending the territory. If Zacchara was in town, he was hiding himself very well. This was something he needed to speak with Jason about. It was just another problem that needed solving. The rival was sleeping in the city, biding his time, but Sonny was ready to wake him from his nap.

It wasn't until the name of Trevor Lansing fell from the lips of one of the informants did Sonny feel a twinge of fear in the pit of his stomach. It was an old fear, one that rotted his childhood.

A/N Spinelli is the main focus of the story; he will be in the next chapter. Additionally, future chapters will be significantly longer.
