Chapter 36
"You have her where?" Jason asked into the phone as he ran out of his brother's hospital room, leaving a worried William and Sam behind.
Jason ran down the stairs and to his SUV. Listening intently to what Cody was saying into the phone. When he was in his SUV he took off, squealing his tires. About 10 minutes later he arrived at a dark warehouse. Jason quickly got out of his SUV and entered the warehouse.
Cody met him on the other side of the door.
"We have both of them. I followed the delivery guy would made a call, stating. The delivery was complete, I had Spinelli trace the call and it let me straight to them. I have her in one room and him in another. He is completely restrained, he keeps trying to fight our men. Something seems to be off about him but it has been a long time since I have seen him and you know him better. Maybe you should see him and decide for yourself." Cody explained.
"Helena is secure right? I don't have to worry about her escaping?" Jason asked.
"No, she is in zip-ties and Max is in with her ensuring she doesn't try anything." Cody answers and sees the anger on Jason's face, Cody continues quickly, realizing Jason's two main guards are there with him.
"Max was already off duty from watching your son when I contacted him. The boys are still well protected."
"Okay, I will see him first." Jason announced, letting the angry slide a way a little.
Cody pointed him to one of the doors. Jason entered the room with Cody behind him.
"Nikolas, I see you are back from the dead."
"Bring me Elizabeth and you will get to live. She is mine. Her boys have been determined to be the rightful Cassadine heirs. My grandmother decided that when Elizabeth marries me, we will mold them into the best rulers of the Cassadine family they are princes, like me. Prince Jacob, Prince Cameron and Prince Aiden…" Nicolas was interrupted then by Jason.
"MY son is not a Cassadine Prince, none of Elizabeth's sons will be Cassadine Princes." Jason was not heard because Nikolas was still going on about how Elizabeth has always been his one true love and then started to sprout out some of the memories that Jason and Elizabeth shared, only Nicolas remembered them as if he was Jason.
Jason immediately left the room and grabbed his phone.
"Hey, I'm sorry it's late but this is kind of an emergency. I have a very much alive Nikolas Cassadine, but something is very wrong with him. He has memories that are not his. More importantly he has some of MY memories."
Jason said and then waited for a few moments before answering with.
"Ok, Patrick I will have him brought there. Nikolas will need to be with one of my men the whole time to ensure that he doesn't escape."
Jason hung up the phone and told Cody where to take Nikolas. Cody left to pull a couple guys together, so that Nikolas could be guarded and once the transportation was complete he would return to Jason and his family.
Jason then went into the room where Helena was. Helena looked just as fragile as the last time he had seen her. The old woman was sitting on a hard wooden chair and looked just as spiteful as ever.
"So you have come to defend poor Samantha? How special. I would have thought that you would have left her in the dust or maybe she would have left you in the dust. You know she isn't yours. Either of them. Samantha belongs to your brother and the "love of your life" belongs to my Prince." Helena spit.
"I am not here to defend anyone. I am here for answers. Now that I know the right questions to ask."
"So, your going to torcher an old frail woman? A woman who can't defend herself."
"I'm going to get answers. You didn't care about defenseless innocence when you took my son. One way or another, I will get my answers. I would rather not have to torcher you, but if I have too…" Jason answers.
Helena looked resigned almost like she's giving up, then she gives a coy smile.
"Nikolas will ensure my legacy will continue. I have ensured this."
"That sucks for you because we have a very good neurologist looking at him now. Anything you have done we can most likely undo. This doctor has always been able to to undo your handy work." Jason said.
"Oh that must be the honorable Dr. Patrick Drake. One day maybe today he is going to try to undo my work and it will kill the patient. His wife was smart to just work for me and not fight against me."
"Enough of this Nikolas is being taken care of. Hopefully the old Nikolas is in there, even if he doesn't make it, the Nikolas I know would rather be dead then be your pawn!" Jason exclaim and then continued.
"What did you do to my son?"
"Nothing really. I just raised him as my own son, to take over. I gave him everything I gave my owns kids. I was planning on raising him as the next Cassadine Heir and bringing him back to Port Charles to take of Spoon Island and remove Nikolas and Spencer. Unfortunately Luke and his spawn arrived and they took innocent little Jake from me, before his real training was done. Jake was young enough that I didn't need to alter his mind to bed him to my wants and needs. In another year his real training would have begun." Helena answered.
"Why did you go after Elizabeth? Why are you so obsessed with her?" Jason asked.
"I keep forgetting that Sam really isn't your true love. I watched all those sappy memories and thought she just wasn't that important. I tried to lessen those memories anyway, but obviously I missed the most important ones. Elizabeth was my target at first because of my ongoing feud with the Spencers. I wanted to hurt Lucky and in turn hurt Luke. When I first took Jake I didn't realize that he wasn't a Spencer that was to be my ultimate revenge. Raise Luke's grandson as my own. After taking Jake I watched Port Charles, I saw how strong Elizabeth was. How she handled the loss of her son and eventually preserved. Elizabeth has to be the perfect person to be a Cassadine Queen to rule her son's. That is why she WILL be Nikolas's wife."
"You fed Nikolas my memories to make him believe that he is in love with Elizabeth. They believed they were in love once when they thought they created Aiden, but in the ending they realized they weren't meant to be together. They decided they were better as friends. Now, what is it that you did you and Dr Keenan do to Sam?"
"Oh, you saw that did you? Well, Dr. Keenan was working for me. My scientist found a way to ensure that poor, pathetic Samantha was able to have a baby. They also made it so that for the first man's seed that touched her would be the only to impregnate her. I found out about you little honeymoon and got Franco to help me separate the two of you. Unfortunately he doesn't remember anything about my involvement. I supplied him with the video evidence of his innocence but kept mine back until just now. Dr Kennan injected Sam witthe chemical to cause only the 1 man's sperm. Then he used the sperm we kept cryogenically frozen from a condom that was used between William and Anya to impregnate Samantha.
She was bred twice to ensure it took. Imagine my shock when it turns out she was pregnant and after you died it was determine you were poor Danny's dad." Helena said laughing at the end.
Jason's phone began to vibrate so he nodded to Max and left the room…
"Hey, Patrick. What did you find out?"
"You know things that woman has surgically imputed in brains would be harder to find if they weren't all the same. Nikolas has two chips in his brain. One in the memory receptors and the other is located where his attitude is controlled. I can remove both of them. Obviously the memory receptor is easier for me to remove as I have done it a few times before. The other chip maybe harder to remove and have more consequences. I will remove the memory one tomorrow, then I will go back in a day or two to remove the attitude one. I won't know the full results until he wakes up after the second surgery."
"You can't remove both at once, because his brain would be to exposed."
"Yes, I forget sometimes that you still have some of your medical training knowledge. After I do his first surgery I will put Nikolas in a medical coma, until it is time for his second surgery. Assuming there are no complications once he wakes I will try to get his permission to remove the attitude chip."
"Keep me informed please." Jason requested before they said their goodbyes
Jason realized he had a missed call with no voicemail from Elizabeth. He sent her a quick text message.
"I will be home shortly. I had a little work to take care of. I love you."
Jason re-entered Helena's room.
"I'm only here for a second. I wanted to inform you that if you believe in God you should pray that Dr. Drake doesn't mess up as Nikolas is his next patient."
With that Jason walked out of the room, then the warehouse, and headed to figure out what is going on with Elizabeth.
Authors Note: Sorry it is short. More to come. I plan to have another chapter up either Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.
