-- Chapter 5
Sonny was pacing back and forth waiting for Zander to arrive. He couldn't leave without talking to him and making sure he could protect Carly and Michael while he was gone. He still couldn't believe that Carly and Zander were together. But then again Elizabeth was his daughter, he knew Alexis 20 years ago, and Emily and his most trusted guard other than Jason were dating so he guessed anything was possibly.
The door to Sonny's penthouse flew open and Zander storming through yelling.
"What the hell Sonny. What's so damn important that you have to have your men come and drag me away from what I was doing?"
"What was so important that you couldn't stop what you were doing and come over when I called the first time?" Sonny countered.
"Not the you know or care but I was looking for my sister she seems to have gotten herself into a little trouble and disappeared yesterday, when your men came and dragged me over here."
Sonny's brows lifted in surprise. "You have a sister. Who? And why didn't you tell me?"
"Why didn't I tell you, because she was already in to deep with you and her being my sister would have put her into more danger. Besides me and her didn't meet on the best terms so I couldn't tell her she's was my sister she just would have hated me. But now I'm not so sure maybe I could have protected her better if she knew I was her brother maybe she would've let me get closer to her."
"Don't blame yourself. Your sister is responsible for her own actions and she have to pay the consequences, but I can help her if you want?"
Zander couldn't believe he was hearing this. Responsible for her actions. There never would have been no actions if that son of bitch haven't tried and hurt Elizabeth because of Sonny. Sonny. He was going to help. Oh yeah, he was goin to help.
Zander grabbed Sonny the shirt and threw up against the penthouse door. "Oh yeah Mr. Corinthos you are going to help. It's your fault that my sister's in the mess that's she's in."
Sonny pulled Zander's hands off his shirt and took a step forward. "Why would it be my fault I didn't even know you had a sister?"
"Because it was your enemy's right hand man who she killed."
Sonny blinked and his eyes widen in surprise. "Wait, but Elizabeth killed Roscoe's right hand man."
"Um yeah Elizabeth is my twin sister."
Sonny stumbled backward as if someone had hit him. "What. That can't be true you mixing her but with someone else. She's not your sister. She cant' be." Sonny rubbed his hand over his face trying to process what Zander had just told trying to come up with some way that he could be wrong. How could Elizabeth be Zander's sister and his and Alexis's daughter that would mean- no-no it couldn't be Alexis would have known if she had twins. Wouldn't she? She didn't know the daughter she did have was alive it's possibly that Mikkos could had lied about her having twins, right?
Zander watch Sonny confusion. It looked as though he was trying to solve some get mystery. It wasn't some big mystery Elizabeth was his sister. "Listen Sonny I can prove it. My mom told me everything our grandfather told her."
Sonny motioned for Zander to come and sit on the couch. When both of them were seated Sonny asked the first question. "What was your grandfathers name?"
"I don't know."
"Ok do you know who your parents are?"
"No I tried to find them for 6 years, but the people at the hospital in Greece were very tight lip."
"Greece?" Sonny asked. Zander sighed he haven't told anyone and the first person was going to be Sonny. Zander started to continue while no one saw Alexis come in from her penthouse.
"Greece is where me and Elizabeth were born. My mom was a nurse at the hospital she said the name St. Angus's so I went there but they wouldn't tell me anything. She said one night when she was working the late shift just her and a traveling doctor who went to missions and hospitals that need staff with his family. They traveled all over the country. Anyway one night this man brought this pregnant girl in she couldn't be more than 15 and my mom said that she had been stabbed 6 times in the stomach. Her and this doctor had managed to save me and Elizabeth. I was the only one who got hurt just a little nick on the back of my neck."
"So this man?" Sonny asked again hoping to find out if more Zander was already telling him.
"So this man told my mom and the doctor on duty that we were in serious danger from our grandmother. He asked my mom and the doctor for them to take one of us. My mom tried to convince the man to give her both of us. She didn't think that we should be separated, but our grandfather told her we would be easier to find if we were together. So they agreed. The man told my mom and Elizabeth's adopted father that if someone ever came looking for us to run. That they would hurt anyone necessary to get to us. That this women only thought that there was one of us. So one of us would be safe and one of us would be in consist danger. Elizabeth's father tried to back out saying he couldn't put his family he already had in danger. Our grandfather gave him some money and he ended up taking Elizabeth. Not that it matter they ended up just shipping her off to live with other people." Zander said the last with disgust.
"How did you find out that it was Elizabeth's parents?"
"My mom knew the name of Elizabeth's father, Dr. Jeff Weber. When I turned 15 she was in an accident and before she died she told me everything and told me to find Elizabeth. You see I always felt that I was missing a piece of myself. My mom told me that that was the fact that I had a twin out there that I had never met expect on the day I was born. And that I would only feel whole if I found her. Who knew she be right I did feel whole when I met her it was like I had been missing something so important that I never knew." Zander looked down at hands finally finish waiting to see if Sonny had any questions.
Sonny couldn't believe it wait yes he could that witch Helena was capable of anything.
"So, you don't know who your parents are?"
"Nope I could never find our mother the damn hospital was so tight lipped and when I busted in to go through the hospital records they had been disposed of."
"I see well he was sure smart with covering his tracks."
"Who."
" Mikk-your grandfather."
"Listen Sonny is there anything else. I really need to go and start looking for Elizabeth. Carly and Michael are being guarded by Jose and Raphel if that's what you're worried about. "
Carly and Michael. Ha his son was dating his ex-wife. Sonny didn't have to think of a way to get them apart when Carly finds out she dump him. But that would crush Zander and that's the last thing he wanted was his son hurt.
Zander went to get up to leave. "Zander wait I found Elizabeth." "And your parents." came Alexis's voice from behind them.
"Zander whipped around and stared wide eyed at Alexis. "You-You found our parents how I just told Sonny? How did you find them?"
Alexis smiled and walked over to where Sonny was standing. Sonny wrapped his arm around Alexis's shoulder. "Because Zander." Alexis explained. "We're your parents."

Elizabeth an Emily had been driving for just a little over an hour when Emily finally broke the unbearable silence that had surrounded them since Elizabeth killed the third guard. "Where are we going Elizabeth?"
"Far away from here."
"Don't you think we should stop and call Jason and Sonny?"
"No the last thing we want to do. Jason could get hurt look at what's already happened."
"Yeah, we almost got killed Elizabeth. Do you understand that that those men back there wanted us dead?"
"Course Em, but we killed them before they killed us."
"Are you listening to yourself. God Elizabeth you sound like Jason or Sonny. We just killed three men. I just killed two men Elizabeth. Me, Emily Quartermain, who couldn't hurt anyone physically just killed someone."
Elizabeth slammed on the brakes and pulled over. "Yes I am and now you listen Emily Quartermain I told you not to come and you did. If you wouldn't have come you would be safe in bed right now."
"And you'd probably be dead."
"At least you wouldn't have killed anyone."
"I would rather have them dead and you alive any day, and if I wasn't there you probably dead. I saved your life."
"And you also put yours in danger. God Emily I can't have to worry about you and me and Jason and Sonny all at the same tine."
"Don't worry about me I'll be fine." Emily couldn't believe that Elizabeth was acting like this it's almost like Elizabeth wanted Emily to get up and leave her here to face these demons on her own. That was it she wanted Emily to get mad and leave so she'd be safe.
"Do you really think acting like this is going to make me leave? I'm not leaving Elizabeth I'm staying and helping you escape these people."
"ERRRRR. God Quartermain you can be so frustrating sometimes. You need to leave go back to rehab and call Jason to tell him you are all right."
"NO! I'm staying so you better get moving Weber before anyone follows us."
Elizabeth huffed and cursed under her breath. She put the car in drive and took off like a bat out of hell. She couldn't not believe Emily was doing this. She smiled. She couldn't believe Emily's dating Johnny.
"So Elizabeth what's going to happen next."
"Well I did some research while I was at the motel on escape routes and if I'm right in about 100 miles we're going to come up on a inspection station for freight trains. A train going to Oregon is going to be stopping there in about two hours and we it leaves we're going to be on it."
Emily's eyes widen. "We're going to hop on a train and ride it to Oregon. That's like a days journey in a train from here."
"Ha more like two days with stops in Colorado and Idaho."
"Great." Silence fell on the two girls again.
"So." Emily said feeling a little awkward.
"So" A huge smile appeared on Elizabeth's face "When did you start dating Johnny."
Emily smiled and started telling her best friend about the best night of her life.

Jason had been at the airport for twenty minutes already and the waiting as killing him. He knew he was early and Sonny was even supposed to be there for another twenty-five but he had made great time and now was left wondering what was going on in the motel that he knew Elizabeth and his sister were at. All sorts of horrible things were running through his mind all of them ending with his sister and Elizabeth dying a very painful death without anyone there to save them.
Sonny was pacing back and forth waiting for Zander to arrive. He couldn't leave without talking to him and making sure he could protect Carly and Michael while he was gone. He still couldn't believe that Carly and Zander were together.
