"What are you doing here?" Zander was standing in the doorway to her
studio. "I think that we should talk." He said coming into her studio.
"Zander, I think that we've already said everything that needs to be said.
What happened was a mistake, and I'm with Jason now." She turned away from
him, finishing up what she was doing.
"I don't believe that kiss didn't mean anything to you." Elizabeth didn't even turn around when she answered him. "I thought that I was going to die in that crypt. I didn't think that I was ever going to see anyone that I loved again. I needed to feel that I wasn't alone. It was selfish of me and I'm sorry. But that's all it was."
Zander came up behind her and grabbed her around her waist. "I can make you happy Elizabeth." He lifted her off her feet and started out the door. "Zander put me down!!" Elizabeth yelled, thrashing with all her strength to free herself. "I know that you feel the connection between us. Jason has got you blinded. He's got you all blinded." Zander ranted.
Elizabeth's attempts to free herself had come to no avail so she yelled for help.
"FRANCIS!!! HELP!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs.
Zander quickly clamped one of his hands over her mouth while keeping the other around her waist in a viselike grip.
Francis raced back to Elizabeth Webber's studio, his gun drawn and ready for trouble. There were signs of a struggle, but no Elizabeth.
After searching the entire building, with still no sign of Elizabeth, Francis called Jason. Only a few minutes after Francis had called him Jason's bike roared up in front of Elizabeth Webber's studio. Jason got off his bike and confronted the guard, his face contorted with anger.
"You were supposed to stay with her! Why did you leave her?" Jason fumed. "I was only gone for a minute to put her bag in the car Mr. Morgan." Francis explained. "I heard her call for help and I dropped everything and ran back to her studio. I searched everywhere, but there's no sign of her."
"Zander, you of all people know what I went through in that crypt. Why are you doing this?" Elizabeth was bound hand and foot sitting on the floor of a small apartment. She didn't know exactly where in Port Charles she was, but she was still in Port Charles of that she was sure. They hadn't traveled far enough to have left town.
"I have to make you see Elizabeth." Zander said heatedly. "I love you Elizabeth." He said calming down and kneeling in front of her. "You don't love me Zander. You don't do this to someone that you love." She lifted her bound arms up so that he could see.
"I do love you Elizabeth. More than a mobster like Jason ever could." He stood up angrily.
"Don't you dare say things like that about Jason. You don't know anything about Jason." Elizabeth said passionately. "Jason doesn't pretend to care about someone and then kidnap them and hold them against their will." Elizabeth looked up at him, her eyes flashing angrily.
"And when Jason finds out that you took me, and he will," she said with conviction, "he won't stop until he hunts you down. And he will make you pay."
Zander smiled defiantly. "We'll see."
Jason was beside himself with worry. He had just found her and now she was gone again. He had to find her, he didn't think that he could stand losing anyone else. Jason was pacing the docks talking on his cell. "I want every available person out searching. I want her found NOW!" Sonny walked down the short flight of steps that led to the docks. He put his hand on his friends shoulder.
"We'll find her Jason, don't worry." Sonny tried to reassure Jason. Jason sighed harshly. "I just found her Sonny. I told her that I would always protect her." Jason rubbed his eyes, sighing again.
Elizabeth sat on the cold hard floor, refusing to acknowledge Zander's presence. "I know that you're angry with me Elizabeth. But this is for your own good. Jason can never give you what you deserve." Zander sighed.
"And you think that you can?" Elizabeth snorted. "You're not even half the man that Jason is. The only way that you could get me was to kidnap me. You're nothing to me Zander." Elizabeth taunted. "I could never love you. The only thing that I could ever feel for you is pity."
Before Elizabeth knew what was happening Zander stormed over and struck her hard across her face. The force of the blow sent her sprawling. She raised her head and looked at him malevolently. "Ask me again why I could never love you." She spat out.
Jason had been up all night long. He was pacing in front of the window waiting to hear something, anything about Elizabeth. It was about 5:00 in the morning when Jason got a call. He raced over to Sonny's apartment, bypassing the guard completely, and woke him up out of a sound sleep.
"Jason, what is it?" A bleary-eyed Sonny asked, getting out of bed. "I just got a call. Someone saw a girl matching Elizabeth's description being dragged into an apartment building not too far from the waterfront. I'm on my way over there now. I just thought that you might want to know." Sonny nodded pulling a shirt over his head. "Give me five minutes to get dressed, I'm going with you."
Elizabeth lay curled up on the floor, her hands and feet still bound. She had drifted off to a restless sleep sometime in the past few hours. She was having her nightmare again. Thrashing around, despite her restraints.
"Jason . where are you?" She mumbled. "Jason! JASON!!" Elizabeth woke up with a start. Zander ran in from another room, ready for a fight. When he saw that no one but Elizabeth was there he visibly relaxed.
Jason and Sonny were moving cautiously down the hallway of a run down apartment building. Francis and Johnny following close behind. When they suddenly they heard a shout down the hall.
"JASON!"
"I don't believe that kiss didn't mean anything to you." Elizabeth didn't even turn around when she answered him. "I thought that I was going to die in that crypt. I didn't think that I was ever going to see anyone that I loved again. I needed to feel that I wasn't alone. It was selfish of me and I'm sorry. But that's all it was."
