Jason never came for Robin but Jason is living as Jake. He has no memories of who he is.
Prologue
Robin roamed the halls of Miscavage trying to escape. She paused, there was an odd feeling. She needed to stop at one of the rooms. She took a deep breath, hedging her bets she used the key card to get into the room. She was shocked to find Luke Spencer looking to be in a catatonic state. She shook him gently.
"Luke it is Robin. I am going to get you out of here. We don't have much time." Luke smiled.
"I am glad someone came. I have been spitting out my meds." He stood. "Got any weapons?" He asked.
"Just one." She held up the gun.
"Well we will look while we find a way out of this hell hole." He looked down at her then gave her a nod.
Together Luke and Robin made their escape. The cool, crisp air felt good on their skin. Robin began to break into a car. Luke was amazed when she hotwired it and pulled off.
"I am impressed young Scorpio." Robin shrugged.
"Yeah, well. It comes in handy." Robin grinned. "I am going to Sonny's. Helena told me that her goons had Jason. He may be able to help us find him."
"That old bitch paid me a visit to taunt me. To let me know that she wasn't dead. She said I had you to thank for it. Now I know why you did it." Robin sighed and grimaced slightly.
"I would have for Jason but Victor didn't give me much choice. Stavros is dead, you can thank your son-in-law for that one. That should offer small comfort." Luke studied her.
"Why are you going to Sonny?" He had to ask.
"Because Helena has my family on 24 hour surveillance. Don't worry, I am also calling my mother." Robin explained. She just hoped that she could keep her family safe.
Anna arrived at Sonny's, he let her in. "My daughter told me to meet her here. I have no clue why."
"Neither do I. She said that she was bringing Luke with her." Anna studied him. She had arrested Luke weeks ago. Ric was still undercover until it was time for trial.
"I know that you arrested Luke. I am intrigued to find out what is going on." The guard came in and announced Robin and Luke.
"Aren't you a sight for sore eyes?" Luke flirted with Anna causing Robin to roll her eyes.
"What is going on here?" Anna demanded to know.
"That clown that you have rotting in prison is Bill Eckert. I never left the institution. Heather helped him. He taunted me with the fact that he has been living my life and married my Spanky." Robin paced.
"That is not all. Helena is alive and so is Jason." Robin explained to Anna and Sonny about the reason she left, what happened at the clinic including the escape and separating.
"Jason was here?" Robin nodded.
"My guess is like me, he was headed off by Helena or her goons. They told him that Sam and Danny were at risk. She showed me video of Patrick and Emma in the house. That is why I called you mom. I need you to keep them safe but Helena needs to think that I am on the run to protect them." Anna and Sonny absorb this information.
"I am… I can't believe it. I want to believe it but…" Robin looked at Sonny.
"I saw him Sonny. He couldn't talk because he pulled out his tube but I saw him." Robin assured him.
"This is… Does Sam know?" Robin shook her head.
"It is up to you to tell her. Right now, I think it is best to put guards on her and Danny. I cannot tell you what to do beyond that." Robin said sadly. "We were so close. It is my fault. I shouldn't have suggested splitting up."
"This is hardly your fault. You sacrificed your family and now you are divorced. You should at least tell Patrick that you are back." Sonny studied Robin.
"If you need a place to stay sweetheart, you know you can always stay here." She looked at Sonny, that is exactly what she was banking on.
"Mom, Patrick is not going to understand and it will not change things between us." Robin said sadly.
"Please just try. I know you, I will fill in the blanks but at least meet him." She nodded.
"I am going to get a team on Patrick and Emma. You keep in touch. If you want to lay low, I suggest you take Mr. Corinthos up on his offer." Robin hugged her mother.
"Luke, you come with me. We have to get to the business of clearing your name." Luke obliged, he wanted to get back to his life. Sonny hugged Robin.
"Thank you." He whispered.
"You never have to thank me for that. Sonny, I would have done it even if I had a choice. I had two years stolen from me. He doesn't deserve that. I know he is still alive Sonny, I feel it. Helena said she had plans for us. I just don't know what they are." Sonny sighed, one thing he was certain of, now that he knew, he would find his best friend. Even if he had to call in a favor from someone whose name he never thought he would utter, the Jackal.
Chapter 1 The Docks
Robin was headed to meet Patrick on the docks. Jake was just going for a walk. Frustrated that no one seemed to know who he was. He had no fingerprints and outside of a few distorted memories everything else was a blank. Then he saw her. His gaze caught hers, their eyes locking as they both were unable to look away. They headed toward each other with their gazes still locked on each other.
Something about his eyes made her breath catch in her throat and she had the feeling of wanting to know him. Jake thought there was something familiar about the petite brunette. He seemed to have met a lot of those lately. Her eyes were large and chocolate brown. They looked like they could see through one's soul. He felt his heart palpitate as she neared him. He movements stopped and he stood frozen in place. He wanted to say something, anything to keep her in his presence. He wondered if she could tell him who he was but admonished himself for such a silly thought. She smiled as she past him. Damn she kept walking. He wanted to stop her, he opened his mouth to ask her name but he chickened out.
Robin's scarf had flown off but she didn't notice when she spotted Patrick on the docks. He was pacing and she could sense the anger rolling off of him in waves. She cautiously approached him.
"Do you understand how many lives you have messed with?" He barked and she flinched as though he had slapped her.
"Patrick, I didn't have a choice." She said sadly.
"No you had a choice Robin and you chose him, like always. You always chose him. You chose him when you walked into that lab and I had to watch it blow up!" Fresh tears filled her eyes.
Patrick placed his hands on his hips. "It is not enough that my son died because of you. Because of him. Now our daughter's life is at risk too?" He looked her up and down with disgust.
He heard the yelling and he could sense the tension as he approached wanting to help. In his mind a distorted image played of the same man yelling at a petite brunette. He couldn't see her face. The woman who had captivated earlier had dropped her scarf, it was grey and it smelled nice. It was soft and he felt himself fingering it as the flash went through his mind.
"That is not fair Patrick. I did not ask for this. I was born into it. I never did anything to Helena, to Victor or Faison. I never did anything to Obrecht. How can you stand there and act as though my existence is a mere inconvenience to you?" She cried but he was cold. It wasn't that he never loved her, he was angry and confused.
"You could have trusted me." He exploded. "Why did you even come back? So that you can run again and go find him."
"I can't do this with you right now." She turned to walk away. The docks wasn't the place for a shouting match and the look in his eyes was tearing her apart. He grabbed her by her arm a move that made Jake spring into action.
"Why don't you back off?" Jake spoke up. Robin chose that moment to make her escape.
"Why don't you mind your business?" He turned back to Robin. "That's right Robin run away. I am not going to coddle you or treat you like a savior when you are anything but." He shouted after her.
"You know, you are a bit of an asshole." Jake walked away in search of the woman who had lost her scarf.
