Thanks to Helena, my life wasn't ruined.

Chapter 10

Metrocourt Hostage Situation

Part duex

Patrick was working to sew up the wounds on Robin's wrists and hands. She had severed an artery and was receiving her second blood transfusion since arriving.

Entering the room to check up on the young doctor, Monica said "Her uncle just called, he needs to know the minute she wakes up."

Turning and snarling at the head of surgery, he knew he was overreacting but still said "He can wait."

"I get what your problem is, but there are seventeen more people still being held and several of them are the reason she is here getting taken care of."

"Mo-ni-monica is right." said the groggy woman coming to. "Can you call my uncle. If I pass out again could you please repeat this to him word for word."

Grabbing a pen and paper, Monica waited while she took a quick sip of water. "Okay, when we were leaving Spencer said When you get out give my regards to your boyfriend, Lucas. His mother was once my ex-fiancée."

Her eyes widening, Monica went to call Mac who just crinkled his eyes and looked over at Morgan. He had suspected that this was about the mob, but now had doubts. Turning to Lansing he said "I am sending an officer to bring Bobbie Jones here."

Luke just stared waiting for his chance. He was sure that the man talking was his sister's ex-fiancée. Jerry Jacks, had liked to play games and as a man who loved to play around with accents, he was able to hear the slight Australian lilt beneath the British upper crust accent he was affecting.

"Now who shall be the lucky participant helping our own personal angel of Mercy play doctor. Should it be the man's former guard who is in love with his ex-wife? Raise your hand if it should be Max Giambetti?!"

Looking around, he saw no takers, then moved on. "What about our little computer geek?"

"No one? ....No, still no takers, okay the geek can sit quietly."

Looking around, he sneered and said "No, not you." to Milo, he didn't know the woman who was looking around like something smelled, so he moved on to the next person. Alexis.

"So Miss Davis, do you want to help save the father of your daughter and your son-in-law, how does that work? Does your younger daughter alternate between visits to daddy and sis or does he send his wife away to spend time with her sister?" Alexis just glared, not knowing he enjoyed the way she seemed to look at her daughter with loathing and Sonny like he was something stuck on the bottom of her shoe.

"Okay folks, since it looks like Miss Davis won't be saving her baby's daddy how about her precious first born?"

"No, I'm scared of blood and I might pass out." said Sam as she pressed back against the wall.

Sighing heavily he said "So sweet Sam is scared of a little blood. It really must have made it difficult when you covered up murdering your late husband Mr. Monroe. Oh that right, you claimed he was trying to rape you after beating you when you shot him."

Everyone turned to stare at Sam while Spinelli got the courage to stand and said "Leave her alone!" In exchange he found himself hit in the stomach with the butt of one of the automatic rifles.

"Me thinks the little boy has a crush on the pregnant woman. Look kid ask Morgan, Jax or even Corinthos over there, other than the inflatable fun bags, she really isn't good to sleep with. Even the over-sized life preservers get as boring as the rest of her after a while." Jerry had gotten Jax drunk one night after learning about the baby, he had admitted things that his brother would rather not know about his sex life.

"You have no right to talk about the Godd..." He gasped between the pain, and found himself on he business end of the shiny black gun. He didn't think he would ever be able to play POV games again.

"Please, she has been had by more men than you have had birthdays." with that he moved on to his next contestant working his way to doing what Helena wanted.

"So Miss Jones, do you want to save the gangster so that you can live or are you to scared of the sight of blood?"

"I volunteer at a hospital, what do you think?" She stated leaving it to him how he took the remark.

"I think you are too willing, so I think I will find someone else. Tracy Quartermaine, you are the next contestant on our little show, DO you think you have what it takes to save the gangster's life?"

Ignoring him, she never saw his smile as he turned to Luke Spencer, "What about you, will you help save the life of the man you gave everything to?"

Turning to the room at a whole he said "Corinthos made his name taking out Frank Smith. Shall we all give a round of applause to the man who really did....No?... Okay how about Mr. Scott Baldwin, esq over there, see he killed a man and let the love of his life go insane thinking she was responsible."

Looking at a furious Luke he said with a wry smile, "Your wife didn't kill R... my oh my, I think we have a winner. Let see how the angel of Mercy deals with working with that man who killed her uncle. See Baldwin killed Rick Webber then let Laura Spencer take the blame."

Seeing everyone looking, Scott said "He is lying."

"You ...." The leader grinned as Spencer lost it and attacked Scott to whom he was still handcuffed to. He let them go at it for a few minutes then fired his weapon into the air. Max counted, even in a standard 9mm the man had to be running out of bullets.

"Okay, now that that is over, remove the cuffs from the men and make sure to attach them to someone else."

Elizabeth watched as Sonny hit the ground, then Carly stood and said "Look, you have wasted enough of our time, why don't you just let her take care of him."

Carly didn't get why her statement seemed to enrage the man, but she found herself dragged off to an empty room and tied to a chair with Miss Sneed as he made obscure remarks that made no sense about her husband, her ex and Jason..

Bobbie had just arrived back from a day visiting Lucas when she found herself ordered down to the Metrocourt. The officer gave her a quick rundown, gunmen in lobby with hostages.

Seeing Jason Morgan standing there talking to Mac shook her but when they asked their question, she sat down and laughed ironically. Seeing the looks she was getting she said "Where do I start. There was Noah Drake, Roy De Luca, Jake Meyers, Joe Kelly and of course Jerry Jacks."

Mac looked back at the screen then called Jax over. "Tell me again why you were in the garage?"

Hearing his story, Mac didn't want to believe the possibility and had the Aussie listen to the audio tapes. "Is that your brother? Bobbie is that Jerry?"

Listening closely, they said "No."

"Are you sure, Luke seems to believe it is."

"No, Jerry is in Bali." said Jax sure of it. His brother has called him from a nightclub there earlier that day.

Bobbie now wasn't sure. The accent was wrong, but she knew that Luke's instincts were usually right. "I can't be certain."

Ric saw that Morgan was growing impatient but it turned to terror for both of them when they saw Elizabeth operating on Sonny with a gun to her forehead. "What the hell just happened there?"

The man in the communications truck said "We just lost audio, but the last transmission had the leader losing it when he came back from wherever he dragged off the blond and the hospital administrator."

Jerry didn't know what to do, Sasha's call made it plain that he was to move things along quicker now. Just as he returned he saw the photo on his brother's desk and smashed it. Why the hell couldn't Jax stay away from the Spencers?"

Returning he knew he needed the code to get into the briefcase and to get to the briefcase he needed to get into the safe. Thinking on it, he knew his best hope was for the police to cut the power since he hadn't counted on the fire safe procedures to kick in.

.

Looking around, he debated what hostage to use to make that happen. But before he could he saw Sonny on the ground and one of his people pointing a gun at Elizabeth Webber's head as she worked on Corinthos.

"Sonny, I have to roll you, I need to see if there is an exit wound."

While the pretty young thing worked on the mobster, the gunmen milled around, restless and making the hostages nervous the longer the situation went on. Hearing Sonny coughing, Sam started mumbling to herself about letting a nurse operate, not having the brains to keep her mouth shut and not draw attention to herself.

"So sweet Sam has a problem with the angel of Mercy operating on her husband. Do you want him to die leaving you all those dirty millions or is it the surgeon you object to?"

"He needs a real doctor." she sneered. "Not a nurse who is scared of her own shadow."

"My oh my; Miss Webber, she really doesn't know you at all, does she?" asked the leader. "See I know a little about the young woman and trust me, she is a lot stronger than her milk and honey looks project."

Sam just needed to get out of here, she couldn't stand it any longer. Looking down, she hid a smile then decided to fake having pains. First pretending to wince, she decided to ask for water. "May I have a drink of water?"

"No!" said the leader annoyed with the woman.

Looking up, Elizabeth saw one of Sam's fake winces and believed it to be true. "If you don't want to have to deal with her in labor, you might want to get her water. She looks dehydrated."

"Fine, the prince and Miss Jones come here."

Attached with cuffs, they were ordered to get water for Sam. Returning Maxie gave her the bottle, feeling sorry for the woman.

Sam whispered thanks then a few minutes later, realized she wasn't faking. She really did feel like she was in labor. Breathing slowly and counting to herself, she felt a tinge just as Elizabeth finished sewing up Sonny.

"So now that our Angel of Mercy is done, we can move on. How long until he is conscious?"

"I don't know." she said looking worried at the man on the ground. "He lost a lot of blood and ...."

The gunman behind her said "Wrong answer." then looked at the leader who ordered her taken off. Elizabeth found herself tied up in the same room as Carly while Miss Sneed was returned to the lobby.

"How is Sonny? Did he give them the code?" asked Carly, she was sick with worry, Jax was missing and she was sure her sons had to have seen television coverage of this. She also knew how stubborn her ex was and was concerned that in his present mental condition he might make matters worse, getting them all killed.

"No, he hasn't woken up yet." she said looking around. Then after a few minutes silence she said "I had my phone on, Jason knows."

Carly thought about what he had been planning a couple of hours ago and said "He will come, he won't leave you here."

"He will come for all of us. It's what he does." she said gently while knowing he cared about her, she was well aware that his first priority would be Sonny and Carly.

"What is going on out there?"

Telling her about Sam feeling sick and adding that the gunmen seemed tenser than before, she said "Something is up, I can feel it."

Mac almost wished they didn't have picture without audio it was a terrifying tableau that got worse when Spencer suddenly got up and ripped the mask off of the leader. Seeing Spencer's shock and surprise, Mac saw the man's face and eliminated Jerry Jacks as the leader.

Hearing Jax's sigh of relief, Jason knew that he hadn't been as sure of his brother as he had been acting. Slipping off with Johnny, he said "We have to get in there, before they make the mistake of opening that briefcase. I hope I'm wrong, but what if..."

Spinelli overheard what was being said between the Leader and the woman he called #1 and deliberated with himself then looking at the pregnant woman, he said after a cough, "I can do it."

"Shut up kid." he was told.

"No, I can hack into the safe, but I want something in exchange."

Moving in closer, the leader got a whiff of him and said "What, drugs?"

Looking at the goddess who looked in pain, he said "She goes free."

"I don't think so, I think sweet pregnant Sam over there might be worth a lot as a hostage. See the police don't like to endanger pregnant women and don't like them being killed because of their mistakes."

Tracy scoffed then said "Oh, please, that one has more warrants out for her arrest than undoubtedly any of you."

Turning to the older woman, he said "Tell me more, why do you hate our little mama?"

Tracy got her voice and gave it full throttle, telling of her many marriages and divorces, which Jerry knew about from researching her when he had thought she was carrying Jax's kid.

She told about the lies since coming to PC but when she got to the girl sleeping with Ric, Jerry turned to Alexis and laughing said "She has slept with the fathers of both of your younger daughter's, how Jerry Springer."

Looking back at the geek, then at Sam he decided she was more trouble than she was worth. "Fine, but you get to work, if you can't show me some progress in an hour, she dies. So think on it, at least half of the emergency code for the safe so that she can walk out of here, or she dies in an hour."

Jerry saw the geek knew his stuff, so he ordered one his more technically proficient men to watch him, then ordered another to take Sam to the room with Carly and Elizabeth. "Have the little nurse keep an eye on her, but watch them, closely. Miss Milk and Honey is a lot more dangerous than she looks, take #6 with you."

Sam would have rolled her eyes if she hadn't been in pain, yeah right, Elizabeth Webber, danger chick. This guy was nuts. Once they were in the small room, Elizabeth was untied and told to check on Sam.

Talking her pulse and suggesting she try to even out her breathing, Elizabeth grabbed a bottle of water from the small refrigerator in the room and told her to take small sips.

When she asked if her baby was okay, Carly scoffed, aware that the kid's was a bargaining chip and future access to a large bank account. Sam started to smart off to Carly when someone came and told them to bring the pregnant girl back to the lobby.

Elizabeth made a point of walking over to the desk and tossing down the wet towel she had been using to wipe down Sam's brow to cover grabbing the small cell phone on the desk.

Ordering Elizabeth back, they missed her slipping the cell phone into her bodice as she seemed to be fixing her hair. Sam just snorted, only a miss prissy like Elizabeth would worry about her hair in the middle of a crisis. Soon tied back to back with Carly, she asked the blond to help her get loose.

"Why so we can wander around the room waiting for them to come back?"

"Carly, I need you to just help me get my hands free, for once, could you just trust me!"

In the communications van, they saw Sam being dragged roughly back to the lobby then words between the geek and the leader. Sam was coming to the front door and shoved out of it. Harper and Ric went to help her while Johnny and Jason quickly discussed their plan.

Walking over they heard Mac questioning Sam while the doctors checked her over then told her she was having false labor pains and only needed to rest now that her blood pressure was going down. "Can you tell us what is going on in there?

Looking at Jason, Sam decided to remind him what he tossed away. In her version she had heroically risked her life to save her baby and those she cared about. She told Mac that the others had stupidly rescued a woman who was going to die anyway instead of saving Sonny who could save them, forgetting that Mac was Robin's uncle. Then her story really changed from what had actually happened.

Ric could barely keep from laughing as she went on to say that she had saved her husband, that she had been dragged off for telling the leaders the truth, that she had been sent out because she had been heroically annoying the leader.

Realizing all they were getting was Sam's skewered version, Mac told her that they still had access to one camera inside and did she really want to stick to her lies?

Turning red, Sam didn't know they didn't have audio so she told a story a little closer to the truth telling them that the leader seemed to know names and faces of the hostages but had gotten personalities wrong.

Mac went back and forth then asked "What do you mean?

"He treats Luke Spencer like he could be an actual threat," she scoffed "same with Elizabeth Webber, his attitude towards Sonny says he isn't worried about retaliation."

Hearing her dismissive attitude in regards to Elizabeth, Ric felt something connect in his mind at the same time it connected for Mac and Jason as well. "Do you know of anyone that hates Luke Spencer yet respects the man's abilities?"

Mac and Jason looked at one another, then at the rest of the crowd, calling out to Emily, Jason asked if Nik had heard from Helena in a while.

"Not since she escaped from that Canadian prison he stuck her in, why?" Her eyes widening, she looked at the hotel and said "Is she behind this?"

Sam saw them walking away from her, wanting to know what was going on, she followed as they told Emily what seemed to be going on.

"Your right, if it is Helena, she would make her people consider Elizabeth a threat after getting that very big shiny rock away from her."

Inside, Spinelli slipped in some code, hoping to get it past the man standing at his shoulder, then sweating he went back to breaking into the safe.

Outside, the man in the communications truck said "We have cameras, not the ones in the lobby, but the rest of the hotel."

"How?" asked Mac.

"I have no idea, but I called our tech people, maybe they can do something with it."

Mac looked at Morgan then said "That kid who used to work for you, get him here."

Morgan explained that Stan who had quit working for Sonny last fall and was now working at GH.

Alice was watching the news when the phone rang and Emily told her that several guards were coming over to protect Cameron and Spencer. "One of them is going to give a code, "Crusher."

'I will be watching for them, Miss Emily. I will pray that Mr. Edward and the rest of the family make it out fine."

"Thank you, Alice." she said before turning to the men.

Emily saw the man with Jason getting a call on his phone and saw him gesturing to her brother so she moved in closer herself. "Elizabeth's guard just woke up at the hospital. He was hit on the head with one of the falling gates. He said that they made a point of grabbing Elizabeth when she was checking on him and they were looking for another girl."

"Who?" he asked sure that if it was Helena his sister was in danger.

"He didn't know, but he did say that they had a photo on them." Sam kept out of sight, not wanting Ric to force her to go to GH, she wanted to be close to Jason, not out out love, but because she wanted to know who the mystery woman was.

Laura Spencer had seen the news about violence in America and was about to turn it off when she saw the banner across the bottom of the screen and sat down shocked as she saw Bobbie standing outside what looked like her daughter's hotel.

Going to her cell, she quickly called her former sister-in-law and begged to know what was going on.

"Luke, Nik and Carly along with Elizabeth a trapped inside, as for Lucky he is at GH still drying out. He seemed to have gotten a little drunk at the gala. But, Laura, Lulu was supposed to be there, but no one can find her. All the police know is that this is a robbery of some sort. At first they thought Jerry Jacks was involved, now it looks like it might have a connection to Helena."

"I will be on the first plane out."

Lorenzo was watching the news, wishing he knew why it was so important to figure this out. He just couldn't seem to get it straight in his head. Seeing the woman who was his wife looking terrified, he wished he could offer something other than platitudes, but nothing was making sense in his own mind.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he saw a man weaving his way into the room. "I know you, I know your kind, how are you involved in this mess. What did you do, Alcazar?" shouted Lucky as he got inches away from Lorenzo. "You, youse, youse are unter aawrest."

As Luke's drunk son passed out on top of her husband, Skye saw an annoyed Dr. Drake entering along with an orderly. Once they had him out of the room he came back and asked if he really did know what was going on.

Skye saw Monica entering looking exhausted and said "We do know something but not anything that will help. Someone contacted my husband last year to act as a middle man. Lorenzo has been out of that life for a while. Then they killed Diego because he refused to get involved."

Seeing her father in the doorway gasp, she said "Then Lorenzo was shot and couldn't remember whatever it is that is so important about this whole thing. Jason stopped the second half of the shipment, but someone got part of it through."

Jason and Johnny took a chance to get inside, as Ric and Mac set up the press conference as coverage. Mac hadn't been thrilled with the idea of them going in, but when his brother had confirmed that a Russian military grade version of plastik was missing, he knew they didn't have time to argue.

Ric knew he had to deal with Sam, so she would stop following her ex-lover and managed to get the medics to insist she go to the hospital, it was clear she wanted to refuse but there was too much press here for her to ignore the order and still look good.

Looking at the young man with him, Jason asked if he was up to this.

"Being the good guy, no. I have hives from being that close to the police without an attorney for that long." he said entering the building through the side door. Once inside, they disarms the various bombs they came across, then were stopped when they found a small group of people hidden in a room.

After convincing them they were the good guys, Johnny led them back to the hidden door and soon sent them on their way to the police before rejoining Jason who was using the welding tools on the gate so they could get the hostages out.

"Got it." he said before they went to find the next bomb. Feeling a buzzing, Jason answered the phone "What?"

"Jason?" Hearing Elizabeth's voice, he followed her directions to the room while listening to her explanation about the phone and knocked out the guard outside the door. Johnny changed into his black clothes while Jason rushed into the room.

"Are you sure you are okay?" he asked as he pulled her into his arms. Looking up he saw that Carly was holding her wrist. "What happened to you?"

"The only way through the ropes, was to twist my wrist." she said. "What is going on out there?"

Giving them an update, he asked why were they pulled out of the lobby.

"I don't know. The leader was mad that I couldn't give him a definite time for Sonny to awake but it was strange the way it happened."

"Same here, he made a comment about how would my husband feel about my concern for Sonny." she said.

"They thought the leader was Jerry Jacks for a while, but since it isn't, I have no idea. We have to get you out of here."

"You can't. He will kill everyone in that room. We were just trying to figure out a way to tie ourselves back up."

"NO!" he said "We are getting you out of here." Jason looked into Elizabeth's stubborn eyes and was going to argue when Johnny poked his head it and said "Leader wants #6 to bring back Elizabeth."

Seeing Jason's fear, Elizabeth touched his hand saying. "I will be okay."

"You don't know that, he has the entire lobby lined with plastik." He pointed out pulling her into his arms, worried that he was going to fail.

"Morgan, we have to go now." Called out Johnny as he entered the room.

"Then I am going with her. You get Carly out of here."

"Fine." he said changing clothes with Jason. Handing him the mask, Johnny said to "Elizabeth, be careful."

"You too." she said with a smile. "Carly, good luck."

"I'm not so sure I should go." she said. "I might be of some help if we have to find that code of Sonny's. Besides, I am one of the few that knows the code to get past that door."

"They can't open that briefcase, Carly. There are toxic chemicals in it. No matter what, don't let that happen." He told her before closing his eyes to pray then pulling on the face mask, grabbing Elizabeth's arm he pulled her out into the hall just in the nick of time. Seeing the two men in masks coming, he indicated, the wrong hallway saying. "The blond escaped. This one was tied up when I got back to the room."

Rushing towards the pool area, they missed seeing Johnny and Carly exiting the area. Once at the emergency door, Johnny said "Go to the police commissioner, let him know that Morgan and I were able to dismantle part of the bombs.

Jerry was relieved when the geek got the code, now he just had to set their escape into motion and grab the case. He felt bad that his brother's hotel had to come down, but he knew Jax had insurance and if a few of Port Charles elite died as long as it wasn't Jax, he truly didn't care.

Telling his people to get ready, he saw that #6 was checking on the bombs now that he had returned with Miss Webber. Looking at the woman, he would regret her death, she had almost given his brother Jax, the one thing he had always wanted a family.

He was thinking about taking her with them, but knew of her connections to Jason Morgan and that the former enforcer had always had strong feelings for the Webber girl.

Hearing his phone ringing, he listened to Sasha then turned to #1 and said "The rest of the plan was successful, get things going. Have #2 and #5 ready to move our hostages if need be, call back the two men chasing our escapee, she is long gone."

Taking the geek by the arm, he had another one of the gunmen lead him to the safe and ordered him to open it. Spinelli was shaking when he put in the code and the door groaned and popped open. Jerry laughed at the picture he found inside. "#7, it looks like you were kept well occupied during the long stay. Who is your friend?"

Spinelli closed his eyes as the blond waitress from the diner finished getting dressed. Hearing the Leader laugh when he found out who the blond was, he said "Funny, you look like your mother, but you have your father's morals. Okay, #4 take the blond and the geek back to the lobby, then handcuff them to each other."

Turning to #7 he said "Did you get it?"

"Right here." Logan said showing him the briefcase.

"What about the mobster's payment?" he asked with a slow grin. "I doubt he will live long enough to spend it so we might as well take it with us."

Showing him the case of diamonds, Logan saw the shadow and then the so called leader shot in the back. The person standing there said "Well?"

"Diamonds, check, Seduction of Lesley Lu Spencer, check. Not so fatal chemicals, check."

"Okay, leave the real thing here in the safe, then take the fake one back to the lobby. What about the code?"

"Just like ordered, the name of Sonny Corinthos lost love." he said leaving them to return to the main room.

Arriving back, #1 looked around and saw that the Webber girl was near #6, then walking over quietly said "Bring her along, we have to get going now."

Jason had disarmed the bombs as much as he could and knew that he had to get to the detonator being held in the woman's hand. Turning to #5 rejoining them, she asked if he had taken care of the problem.

"Problem is taken care off."

"Who the hell are you?" she asked. #5 had been with her for a few different assignments, ripping off his mask, she saw a young man with dark hair and brown eyes. Pointing her gun, she said "I won't ask you again."

"The answer to your question is this, I am the man who has been going around disarming your bombs."

Hitting him with the butt of her gun knocking him out, she ordered a retreat for her people. When #6 didn't bring the Webber girl, she grabbed her and said "You are coming with us, princess."

Once away, Jason lingered close to Elizabeth and the woman with the accent and when she went to detonate the bomb, Jason grabbed at it, but was too late. Hoping that Zachara hadn't been bragging and had really gotten to the bombs in the other hallways, he grabbed Elizabeth's arm and rushed them into the elevator just as what sounded like the whole world exploding!

Mac saw people rushing out of the front doors, as the medical teams rushed over to help them, he saw Monica running over to him. "We got the inoculations, Anna brought them in." The firemen were busy cutting off handcuffs and fighting the dust and fire that had been kicked up by the few bombs that had still gone off. Thankfully, the relay system for the plastik had been hit or miss.

Mac was helping when he realized his daughter was in her sister's arms, crying while Alexis Davis was getting checked over by one of the medics and the geek was just wandering around, seeming stunned by what had happened.

Alan saw his father staggering out of the hotel being held by Nik Cassidine who had blood gushing down the side of his arm. Grabbing his father by the waist, he helped the medic who rushed him onto a gurney then saw him grab his heart.

"Get me a nitroglycerin pill, he is having a heart attack." he snapped then ripped open his shirt to perform CPR. Calling out to his wife, he saw she had gone to help Tracy who had a head wound and was shouting for Luke over the chaos.

Monica heard her daughter scream Nik's name and throw herself into his arms before leading him off to a waiting ambulance. She saw her looking around, then question Nik. She saw the horror on Emily's face and realized she didn't see Elizabeth Webber anyplace.

Seeing Spencer hauling Corinthos out, Monica let Tracy go to take care of the man who was now bleeding from his earlier wounds. She had to remind herself of the oath she took when she became a doctor, especially when she heard Max and Milo Giambetti telling Mac what had happened in the last few minutes.

"The kid, there." he said pointing at Johnny "showed up and was pretending to be one of the gunmen, but got caught. Before he was hit with the gun, said he had disarmed most of bombs."

"He's correct." said Harper as he helped more of the hostages get out of the now destroyed Lobby.

"Where is Carly?" asked Bobbie when she saw Sonny's former guards.

"MOMMA!" she heard turning she saw her daughter in Jax's arms. "Mac, don't let anyone open the briefcase, Jason told me to tell you."

"I was sent a text that you were sent out a half hour ago, what took you so long?" snapped Ric.

"The bomb caused the door to stick, I had to use the fire extinguisher to get it open." she said. "Did everyone make it out?"

"Marty did." said Jax. "We can't find Mike Corbin and the hospital administrator..."

Carly saw that none would meet her eyes then looked at Jax and said "Jason, where is Jason?"

"We don't know. Elizabeth Webber and he are missing. They might be with the gunmen."

As she angrily insisted they get back inside and track down Jason, Scott came up blustering and saying that Morgan is on his own. "No one asked him to play hero."

Carly balled up her fist and hit the bastard in the mouth. Turning to Mac, she said "According to the gunman, Scott killed someone named Rick Webber."

Looking down at Scott lying on the cold wet ground, Mac ignored his request to arrest Carly. Ric went to talk to the medic who had just returned to scene from GH. "Sam McCall, how was she?"

"Fine, she just bitched a lot about being forced to go to the hospital."

When Maxie went to grab her bag from her wrist, she turned white when she realized her medicine was still in the lobby.

"Maxie, what is it?" asked Georgie as she rubbed her sister's arm where the cuffs had been..

"My pills, they are in the hotel." she said looking at the rush of bodies coming in and out. "I need to get them."

"You are in no shape." her sister said. "We can just get some from Dr. Quartermaine when we get to GH."

"We can't, they had to send to Mercy for the ones I had. She told me to be careful with them, there has been a batch of fakes floating around. I will be right back."

"NO! I will go and get them." She listened as Maxie told her where her purse was.

"Go to dad, I will meet you there." Georgie hugged Maxie before slipping past the firemen and dashing in to find the missing drugs.

There was a sudden quiet to the whole disaster as the fire chief came up to Mac while his men hauled out four black body bags.

"Here." he said showing him the photos.

"Mike Corbin." said Mac quietly to Jax. Then he said "We will need to confirm but this woman works at GH. Miss Sneed, I believe."

"What about these two." he said.

"This is the man who was in charge of the gunmen. The other one, no idea. Did your people take off his clothes."

"No and he was that way when they found him." he said before walking over to his men who were shoring up the weak spots. Hearing footsteps and sobs, they saw the young blond who came rushing out of the hotel.

Nik saw his sister and wondered where she had been, she looked terrible and when she ran into Luke's arms, he saw her bawling her eyes out. Then she seemed to get control of her tears and went over to the dark haired man talking to Mac Scorpio and slapped him across the face. "That is for standing me up."

Worried about Jason and Elizabeth he had no idea what her problem was, "What the hell are you talking about?"

"You were supposed to be my date to this thing."

Looking at her, Johnny just shook his head and went back to figuring out what had happened to the gunmen as well as Jason and Elizabeth. Seeing Mac's other daughter running into her father's arms, she said "Georgie went to get my anti-rejection drugs."

"Where are they, why didn't you just..."

The sound of metal ripping away from metal had Maxie screaming her sister's name as Johnny looked at the collapsing building. Then the horror of what was going on hit and he screamed "NO!"

Not seeing any flashes of red, Mac saw the look in Maxie's eyes and knew that his youngest daughter had just rushed into a collapsing building. Ric grabbed Mac and saw Sonny's guards grabbing the Zachara kid as the fireman rushed out.

Going over to the fire chief, Mac shouted that his daughter was in there.

Looking at Mac with pity, he said "A few of the men went out a side door, maybe she went with them."

Doing a man check, he asked if anyone had a young girl with them. Going through his entire department, he got here and that none had Georgie.

Johnny just stared, not believing that he would not have another altercation with the sassy and beautiful young woman. He stared with unseeing eyes at the building, certain that she would come up any minute. She had to, she just had to...

The sound of silence was deafening, as word spread about Georgie and that Jason and Elizabeth were missing, quiet sobs soon replaced the murmurs and sounds of rescue. Now there was just nothing.
