Elizabeth slowly saw the room come into focus. She tried to move but realized she was tied up. She looked around the room, noticing all four of their guns on the table, along with extra rope, Must be in case one of us finds some way out, she thought. She saw Sam tied to a chair with Lucky tied to another one behind her. Where is Jason? But she heard movement behind her and realized he was tied to a chair behind her.

Elizabeth looked across and saw Sam regaining consciousness as well. Sam briefly struggled before Elizabeth whispered, "We're stuck. We're all tied to these chairs, nobody is coming to our rescuer this time."

Sam looked up and met Elizabeth's eyes. "Then I guess we'll just have to save ourselves."

They tried to get loose from their bonds, but the ropes were tied too tight. Slowly, Lucky and Jason woke up as well. Both men were worried because they couldn't see what was going on; all they had to look at were the walls.

Just then, they heard footsteps approaching. Sam felt the nerves flying inside her. Elizabeth looked as terrified as Sam felt. The door to the room flew open and Diego limped inside.

"Well, well, well. What have we here? It's funny; I bet you thought you were going to be the ones who killed ME? Too bad I get to have the pleasure of killing ALL OF YOU!"

Sam said, "You BASTARD. Killing us isn't going to fix your problems. You think people won't figure out who the killer is? We did. And others know as well."

"Shut up! You keep running your mouth, and I'll kill you first."

"You will do no such thing." Everyone stiffened at the sound of that voice. So this was Diego's partner in crime. The person stalked into the room, and said, gleefully, "Ah it is nice to have you all here for a visit. Now let's get down to business, shall we? GUARDS! Move these men so all four of them are facing me. I want to see the terror in their eyes once they realize what is happening."

Four men came in and moved Jason and Lucky so they formed a semi-circle with Sam and Elizabeth. The foursome looked at the person standing before them, smiling coldly, with evil apparent in their eyes.

"Why are you doing this?" Elizabeth asked. "Please, let us go."

"Not going to happen. Sorry my dear."

Helena Cassadine stood before them. She looked at all of them, her face growing more and more evil as she did so.

"I assume you are all wondering why you are here. Let me explain. But first, I will tell you how I came to be partnered with Mr. Alcazar. You see, I am well aware of the power struggles within Port Charles. I had made contact with Lorenzo before Mr. Morgan here eliminated him. However, I discovered the fact that Diego was alive, and he and I worked out an agreement to bring Port Charles to its knees."

Sam looked at the woman, who she knew was her step-grandmother. "You are just as sadistic as they tell me you are."

"Ah yes, the bastard daughter of Natasha. Samantha is it? How nice to meet you."

"Yeah, well I can't say the same. What, you couldn't wait to meet me in a normal way?"

Lucky said, disgusted, "This is her normal way."

"Oh Lucky," said Helena. "Don't you ever let go of a grudge?"

"What the hell do you have us here for?" Jason burst in; he just couldn't take it anymore.

"Why?" Helena cackled. "Oh well, I will tell you why. It's quite simple. REVENGE."

"What have I ever done to you?" Elizabeth burst in, on the verge of tears.

"Actually, you ended up here of your own volition; you happened to show up at Samantha's door and got in Diego's way. It's your fault you are here, you were never meant to be a part of this plan. Although it is convenient that you are Jason's current flavor of the month."

"Don't call her that!" Jason spat.

"I will call her what I wish! For maybe the first time in your career as a professional criminal, you are not in charge. So, be QUIET!"

All four of them were stunned into silence.

"Okay, so because you hate my mother, I am here?" Sam asked, quietly.

"Well, yes, in a way. However, that was only a benefit, Diego planned on getting rid of you anyway, since you are the one who almost fatally shot him."

"So why am I here?" Lucky interjected.

"Ahh well, you think you would know by now. I hate your father. You are also a part of Samantha's life; therefore, you deserve to die. Simple as that."

She turned and stood before Jason. "And you. You, Jason Morgan, deserve to die more than anyone. You killed Diego's father, and my business partner. That was a mistake. Second, you are-oh ho- make that, were Emily's brother, and she was never worthy of my Nikolas."

Jason looked at Helena with a death glare, one that many of his enemies had cowered before. But Helena was not daunted. She simply smiled at him. "You do not scare me Jason. Save your looks of hatred for Samantha over there. I do believe you hate her now? The one you used to love so deeply? And now, now, you love Elizabeth more than anything. Well, I will tell you, I will make you watch both of them die. You decide, who shall it be first?"

Jason momentarily let a look of desperate fear cross his face as he tried to find a way out of this. But Lucky spoke up first.

"You can't do this Helena!"
