Chapter 17

Victor ignored Sarah and continued into the apartment looking around. "I see that you spent your money wisely," he stated.
Sarah rolled her eyes. "I asked you a question."
"We need your help." Mikkos said walking into the apartment.

Stefan drove to the hospital and went to his office. As he sat behind his desk, he noticed an envelope on it. He picked it up and opened it.

**Cousin, I know that this isn't the best time, but we need to talk. Helena knows a secret that Melanie and I have tried in vain to keep hidden. If this truth is exposed it will be the end of the family. Fiona.**

"We leave in four hours," Zander announced walking into the room. Lisa Marie and Jordan looked up but quickly went back to their projects.
He sighed and sank into the nearest chair. Frisco walked in.
"Sean's bringing Rayna and Cayla."
"Why?" Jordan asked.
"Holly and Tiffany want to help."

~~~
Sarah sighed and sat down in a nearby chair. "What do you need now?"
Mikkos and Victor looked at each other. Victor spoke, "We need you to go talk to Melana."
"Really? And what exactly should I tell her?"
"She needs to stop her games with Helena," Mikkos said.
"Okay, is there anything else?" Sarah asked.
"Not really."
Sarah sighed again and nodded. Mikkos and Victor left. She set her cup of coffee on the table and went to her bedroom and pulled a small notebook out of her closet. She flipped through it until she found what she was looking for.
She memorized the address to Melanie's safe house before she put the notebook back in the closet and leaving.

Alexis awoke with a start and looked around. Her heart sank slightly when she didn't see anyone. She sat up and walked over to the desk.
"It must have been a dream," she said to herself before looking down on the desk. The note from Mikkos was laying there, waiting for her to pick it up and read it.
She did.
**Dear Natasha, I apologize, but I must go. Victor and I have something that we need to take care of immediatly. Please understand. I will be back later. Do not tell anyone that you have seen me, the people who need to know, know. Love, your father, Mikkos Cassadine.**

Alexis backed towards the wall and sank to the floor. "It wasn't a dream."

Luke and Laura were in Laura's room talking when Sean and Robert walked in.
"We got an interesting piece of intel," Robert said.
"About?" Luke asked.
"Helena and her not so dead husband."

~~~
Lucky and Nikolas were walking towards Laura's room when they saw Sean and Robert enter. THey decided to stand outside and wait until the four adults finished. However, they could hear everything said inside the room.

~~~
"Since when is Mikkos alive?" Laura asked.
"Obviously since we didn't make sure he was dead," Sean replied. "He's here in Port Charles."
"Doing what?" Luke asked.
"We don't know, but we do know that Victor is with him."
"Great," Luke said sarcastically.
Robert sighed. "The schedule has been changed some."
"How so?" Laura asked.
"TIffany and Holly showed up. Anna and Holly are taking Cayla and Rayna to Pine Valley. After they arrive, Frisco's getting them all outta there."
"How are they?" Laura asked.
"Since the attack, they're all fine. A little nervous maybe, but at least they know what they're doing."
Laura nodded as Lucky and Nikolas walked in.
"What's going on here?"

~~~
Less than an hour later, Sarah had arrived at Melanie's safehouse. Glancing around to make sure that she hadn't been followed, she walked up to the door just as it opened. Melanie walked out.
"Yes?" Melanie asked.
"Hello, Ms. Cassadine, I'm Sarah Webber, here on behalf of your brothers."
