Nathan then stepped out with my cell as he made a call

"Lucas…yeah sorry for waking you up this late at night but…Mike got another message from his parents…They're never going to stop hounding him until he takes his life or dies…He's a fucking wreck…I don't know what is going to happen or what he'll do." Nathan replied

Later on that day…

Brooke, and Haley were watching TV when it instantly went to the news and a live press conference

They saw me standing there as I was pissed

"Sorry for having to interrupt the local shows but this can't wait…this is being broadcasted world wide on my insistence and Dan's help…(Holds up a check) This is a copy of a check of Five million dollars…it went into a new account just five minutes ago…I have also contacted a lot of Mercs, assassins, Hitmen basically contract killers…no offense meant…To my parents…in Manhattan…(Then their pics were shown from their drivers licenses) Please note the pictures of your targets…If anything should happen to me or to Nathan Scott oh say a slip down a flight of stairs, slip in the tub…anything other than old age…it will then be a race to the first hitman, Merc or anyone of the people I contacted to take them out…how is up to you as long as they are very very much dead Five million to the first one if anything should happen to Nathan or to me…You started this by telling me you would never stop till I'm dead…I'm just pulling a page out of the Michael Garaboldi playbook anyway…I hope you have a very…nice life…cause I'm pretty much sure that they are ALL moving to New York at this very moment to stay close to you and track you and to track each other…you basically drove me to make sure I would be safe…I'm tired of being afraid…I'm tired of running, I'm tired of crying over trying to figure out what harebrained scheme you're going to do to try to push me over the edge…You tried it with the false allegations of Rape…that was shot down twelve hours later…Have a nice life." I replied as it jumped to the newsroom

Brooke and Haley looked at each other

"Wow…" Brooke replied speechless

Mouth and the others were watching it in the classrooms as they were stunned that I would do that

I came in later as I sat down

Lucas looked at me "Are you insane? You just issued a contract on your parents!!"

"I finally have a grip on my life Luke…I'm not letting them push me around anymore…(Turns to face him) They would not have stopped until I was dead by any way possible…This just puts a noose around their neck…They do something to me…they have to suffer retribution by having to look over their shoulders…worrying for the rest of their lives…NYPD can't do shit to me and neither can Tree Hill PD…It's not facilitation of Murder or conspiracy to commit murder Everyone knows about it on the planet." I replied

"Okay I understand that you wanted your life back…"

"Lucas…you couldn't understand…Maybe I can try to break it down for you…Remember how Dan was before he took the nice road?"

Lucas nodded "Forty times worse than that." I stated as his eyes went wide and I nodded

His eyes narrowed 'They abused you?'

I rose my left eyebrow as that said 'Nathan does not know about my plastic surgery I had done to get rid of the scars that were on my back or on my arm…the right one."

He frowned and narrowed 'Why not tell him?'

I closed my eyes as that said "The first thing he'd do is go to Manhattan find them and kill them himself and then he'd be in jail for first degree murder."

Principal Turner walked in

"Michael." He replied as I looked at him

"What?" I asked

"You have a phone call from NYPD."

"Woman's voice?" I asked

He jerked his head back "Yeah."

"Tell her I'll call her on her cell." I replied as I pulled it out then I dialed the number and then pressed send

"Detective…you wanted to talk…I have my ways…Oh NOW they want to talk…I guess a death threat backed up by a contract hit can make anyone want to talk to resolve this…I want their contacts in the cell companies… cause It's pretty grimy that I went from T-mobile, to Verizon, to Nextel, and now to Cingular and within two weeks they had my cell phone number…What Ex girlfriend? I never had a girlfriend to begin with when I was in Manhattan…Tree Hill? I slept with nearly every single girl in the high school, nearly every single wife and nearly all of the husbands here as well…we split and remained friends…of course I waited a week before sleeping with someone else…Not a chance darling…When I was a kid I was supposed to have the chicken Pox but never did…till I hit seventeen…then it left with a side effect…my doctor in Tree hill knows about it cause he had me tested…so basically I couldn't have knocked up anyone…"

Lucas mouthed "How many people did you sleep with?"

"My number's on your recent call list…yeah…thank you." I hung up

"One on one, threesomes with Nathan, Threesomes with the wife and husband, threesomes with the wife and her lover, threesomes with the husband and his friend from work…" Lucas shook his hand "In general…bottom line all together."

"Oh…Tree Hill…Charlotte…Miami…total is 233." I replied

Lucas's eyes went wide as did Haley's

"I guess I should've called you Fabio." Haley replied

"(Sheepish voice) I really don't think you should say that considering it belongs to someone else." I replied

"Who else could be called Fab…(realizing what meant by someone) Ohhhh….(gets an embarrassed look on her face)"

"Yeah…"

"I thought it was Crimson Sunrise?" Lucas stated

"So good we named a GALAXY after it." I replied

"With your new relationship?" Lucas stated 'With Nathan?'

I nodded

"I miss him being insatiable and his sexual appetite…"

"Whoa!! You're dating a love machine!?" Brooke stated as that was 'NATHAN!? Was a love machine all this time!?"

I nodded "Yeah…I think I'll surprise him." I replied

"So after High school…" Lucas stated

"We talked it over and I told him where it felt right for him without being pressured by anyone…"

"So?" Lucas asked
