Summary: When lies and manipulations bury the truth, deadly secrets come with a high price. But the heart can never lie, the heart always knows the truth.
Pairings: Liason, Georgie/Johnny, Dante/Lulu
Timeline: 2011, Alternate History
Things You Need To Know: Jason did not go back to Sam, Liz never went back to Lucky and the whole Nic affair did not happen. Liason has been together since 2007, and never split up. The rest of the Alternate History will be explained through out the story. :D
Inspiration: Well, we've always been Liason fans ever since 1999 and we found fan fiction about them on here and other sites. Then we found the Georgie Johnny fan fiction and a lot of what ifs came playing inside our minds, so we decided to
try our hand at things and see how it goes from there.

Guest Reviews:
Tish: Thank you! Here's a little filler to hold you over until the next chapter!
Guest: Thank you so much! He will eventually. Who knows Georgie and Johnny may find their way back together sooner than you think. :D
If we didn't get to your review, we apology. It's hard to keep up who we answer to because sometimes Winchestergurl does it, and sometimes I reply. We really need to get on point, but sadly the Holidays have only made our craziness worse, lol. Happy Hols!
This interlude lets us have a little insight to some of our villians. :D
INTERLUDE
"Predators and Prey"
ANTHONY ZACHARRA
It was like playing a game of chess, except there was more than one opponent upon the field. It was all about out maneuvering and deception, to make a carefully calculated move and make sure your opponent suffers because of it. Anthony Zacharra ran his fingers across the board, his eyes studied the board very carefully. Anthony had been playing chess since a child. It was one of the only good things his pathetic excuse for a father had ever taught him. He knew every inch of the board, and had set it all up to favor him. He had machination in place that no one could fully prepare for, and he relished in thought of watching everyone burn.
First things first, however.
He needed John back underneath his thumb. He couldn't have his unruly son running about with Morgan any longer. He couldn't afford to look weak any longer. In order to do that, he needed to cripple Morgan in the worst way imaginable. He must admit a bit a guilt on that part. Or as much guilt as a man like him could feel. Elizabeth Webber was a good woman. Sadly, she had thrown her lot in with the losing team. He also needed to deal with Claudia. His pathetic excuse for a daughter was good for adding chaos to the mix, but over all was an unknown element. Anthony did not like being in the dark about anything. If he were the puppeteer, this just would not do.
As for Johnny's little prodigy, Anthony would use her to insure his legacy. Once he had the child and the mother in his care, he could make Johnny dance to any tune he played.
CLAUDIA ZACHARRA
To say that Claudia Zacharra had a rough life was an under statement of the biggest kind. Claudia stared up at the ceiling, her chest moving up and down slowly as Sonny slid out of bed. She waited until the door was shut, and she heard the shower turn on. She let out a sigh as she sat up and pulled a robe around her to cover her naked form. She always felt sick after sleeping with men, after letting them use her and letting them think they were in control. It always left an angry sickness inside of her heart, and being with Sonny was the worst.
The man was a hypocrite of the worst kind. At least, she knew what she was and didn't try to hide behind a kind façade. She knew what kind of monster she was. He might truly regret what he has done. Maybe he sensed the noose tightening around his neck, knew that his was coming, but he had no way to stop it. Not now anyways. Claudia smiled thinly, as she twisted the ring on her finger.
Sonny was such a creature of habit. He always would shower after sex, and then have a drink. Over the last few months, Claudia had taken to get his drink for him. She popped open the jewel on the ring, revealing a hidden compartment full of a white powder. It was a lethal little thing that she had procured off the black market. She tapped her hand along the powder to fall into the drink. Her dark eyes watched in a cold detachment as the powder dissolve into the drink.
There might have been a time Claudia could have been redeem. A time were she might have been a better woman than the monster she was now. Someone like Elizabeth Webber, or Georgie Jones. But that time had passed a long time ago, and she had done too much to take back. She had became the very thing she despised, but there was not turning back now. All Claudia had in this world was her power and her 'little brother'. There wasn't a day in her life she prayed that Johnny never found out the truth about his birth, and it was the one thing that Anthony still managed to hold over her head to this day.
Soon that wouldn't be a problem.
Claudia clicked her ring back in place just as the bathroom door opened up, and she picked up the two glasses in her hand. She watched Sonny walked into the room, the swagger had been long since lost in his step. His ribs were visible and sticking out. If she could manage any feeling of guilt, she would almost feel back for the fate she was delivering to him. "Drink?" She held out the drink that didn't have the poison.
Sonny's eyes narrowed.
Claudia's smile didn't falter in the slightest. It was like watching a blind shark trying to sniff out the blood in the water. She was careful to not let her pleasure show when he took the drink that he assumed to be hers. Sonny didn't trust her, but she always expected that. She took a drink of her drink lightly, and watched he swallow down his poison.
Claudia was a monster, and she was damn proud of it.
JERRY JACKS
Jerry Jacks was not a dumb man.
He knew when he was being played, but to what end, he did not know. He ran his fingertips across the file that had been delivered to him, and yet he couldn't find it in him to believe what was written in there. It was too easy. Too simple. Anthony Zacharra would have relished having this kind of information on him, and yet he let it go so easily. It meant that the other man had something up his sleeve. Was the information fake? Or was there more to it?
The burn of the alcohol slid down his throat, and he stared around at his MetroCourt room with a vague amusement. He couldn't hide the smirk when Carly realized she couldn't have him thrown out. Good ol' Jax came through in the end. He honestly didn't deserve a brother so loyal, and he did try to repay him when could. But Jerry was a selfish kind of bastard, and that was hard to change. Alexis tried as much as she could, and part of him wanted to try for her.
He just didn't think he had any good left in him. He had done too much, and come too far to take it back now. He was resigned to his fate. That one way or another he would meet his end, mostly likely on the end of a bullet. Or in the bay with fishes. Jerry placed his hand on the file, staring at it intently. He needed to verify this information, and from there…
He would figure out what to do with his problem called Anthony Zacharra.
UKNOWN
She had gotten away.
Thunder clashed above, and the rain slammed down against the windshield. The road was barely visible in front of him as he pressed down harder on the gas peddle. His jaw was clenched and his teeth gnashed together. His hands clenched and unclenched around the leather steering wheel. He couldn't believe she had gotten away. Anger boiled in his veins like molten lava, his trust in her betrayed once more. He allowed her too much freedom, he had realized too late when he had come to. Allowed himself to put too much faith into her once again, and she had slipped away. Hadn't he done everything for her? More than anyone else ever had? He had move heaven and earth for her. He had let her keep that bastard's child, even offered to raise her as his own.
The car sped along the highway at neck breaking speeds, but he didn't slow down. She was already back in Port Charles. He was certain of it, and it just made the rage inside him burn hotter than ever before. All that he went through just to have her and be with her, and she had to go and do something like this. She just could never be true to him! Not like the way he was for her!
He caught his dark eyes in the reflection, and perhaps years ago, he might have seen the madness burning in his gaze for what it was. Now he was too far gone.
Sorry for the late update! We promise to try to update with a real chapter by the New Year if time will allow us to.
Read and review! Thanks! :D
