Business Switches Hands
It had been six weeks since Skye had been shot and everything was returning to normal. The children were back from Port Charles, Jason and Carly had a great vacation and Skye had returned to work a week ago.
Sonny was still turning thoughts over and over again in his mind about that day in the village. Two names flashed through his mind, Lorenzo Alcazar and Nicholas Caprice. His office door swung open and Jason came rushing in.
"What did you want to see me about?" Jason asked.
"Have a seat."
"Things are getting out of control. Skye was shot, a warehouse was blown up and Nicholas Caprice is back with a vengeance. There are too many things going on at once, too many things to keep up with. Caprice has to die, everything was fine until he came here."
Jason nodded, "You wanna cut the problem off at the source."
"Yes. It's the only way I can protect my family."
Sonny's office doors flew open, the police came marching in, "Michael Corinthos."
"Yes." Sonny said as he stood up, "Is there something I can help you with?"
An officer came closer, "I have a warrant for your arrest." He held up the paper.
"On what grounds?" Sonny asked.
"Distributing narcotics, Mr. Corinthos, please turn around and put your hands on the back of your head."
He did what the officer instructed, he was searched and then cuffed, "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have a right to an attorney. If you can't afford one, one will be provided for you. Do you understand these rights as I have read them?"
"Yes." Sonny said firmly.
A second officer searched Jason and then read him his right. The police officers and the detective escorted them out of the office and down the hallway and into the parlor. The front door opened and Skye walked in with her briefcase. She looked at the sight before her in disbelief. Sonny with his hands cuffed and behind him stood Jason.
"What the hell is going on here?" Skye demanded.
"Everything's going to be okay, Skye." Sonny assured her.
"Why?" She asked.
"Luciano, can I have a moment alone with my wife. Please, she just went through a traumatic experience and I don't want anything to upset her and add stress. Just give me one minute."
Luciano nodded, "One minute. Take Morgan out and put him in the car."
The two officers left with Jason and Luciano followed, closing the door behind him, "One minute, Corinthos."
Once the door shut Sonny motioned for Skye to move away from the door, "Somethings gone wrong in deal, it may take a while to get off the charges but, Jason and I will beat this. What I need you to do is remain calm. Call the attorney, I don't think he's going to be able to do much right now but Garcia needs to be informed, have him meet us at the station. Our business cannot stop, it has to be moved forward, I need you Skye. I need you to do this for me. I'll give you further instructions later." Sonny whispered.
"At least let me come to the police station with you." Skye pleaded.
"You should wait a while." Sonny stepped forward and kissed her lips.
The front door flew open, "Minute's up."
Luciano grabbed Sonny's arm and led him out the door.

Three hours later Sonny still sat in the interrogation room, his attorney had already spoken with him, telling him his hands were tied until the evidence appeared before him. The gray door opened again and Skye came walking in. She sat down across from him, "John said there was nothing he could do."
"I know, but right now we have more important things to worry about."
Skye reached across the table and placed her hand over top Sonny's cuffed ones, "I just want you and Jason out of here."
"And we will be, just not tonight." Sonny assured her.
"Well then, is there anything you need? Anything you want?"
"I need you to keep the boys from watching the television, tell them I'm away on business and give Isabella a kiss for me."
Skye smiled, "I will."
Sonny leaned across the table, he held tightly to Skye's hand, he looked over at the window to make sure no one was there. Skye moved forward so there was little space between them, "Nicholas Caprice has a shipment coming in tomorrow night, I need you to find out where it came from and who sent it." He whispered
"That's it?" Skye asked softly.
He moved closer, whispering into her ear. "As soon as we know who and where I'll fill you in on the rest."
The door behind them opened, "What's the big secret?" Scott asked.
"Baldwin, what the hell are you doing here?" Sonny asked
"I've been here a few days, they called me here to help with your case. So what were you whispering in your wife's ear?"
"Sweet nothings." Skye said with a smile.
"Mrs. Quartermaine Corinthos, please excuse us, your loving and devoted husband and I have something every important to discuss."
"I'll be back." Skye leaned in and gave Sonny a long, passionate kiss. She turned, smiled at Scott and walked out the door.
Scott watched the door close behind Skye, "Your wife is beautiful and sexy, what is she doing with you?"
"Shut up about my wife Baldwin."
Scott threw his briefcase on top the table and opened, "I bet she's mind blowing in bed too."
"I told you to shut up about Skye." Sonny yelled.
"There's no reason to get edgy, you'll be in here for the rest of your life, she's going to want somebody next to her in bed, keeping it warm."
Sonny laughed, "Skye would never touch someone as slimy and pathetic as you."
"You think so?" Scott challenged, "I heard that she got around before you were married. Jasper Jacks, Stefan Cassadine, hell she was even married to Luis Alcazar."
"I can except that Skye had a life before me."
"Even being married to Luis Alcazar? He's an international drug dealer, or a least he was until he got blown up in that warehouse in Miami."
"That's enough about my wife, what are you doing here?" Sonny demanded.
"I've got all the evidence I need to put you away for the rest of your miserable life." Scott waved a manila envelope in front of him.

Skye walked up the stairs of the villa and inside. Carly was sitting on the sofa in the parlor. "What's the plan?"
Skye placed her purse down on the table, "Sonny want's me to find out where the shipment that Caprice is receiving came from and who sent it."
"The one that comes in tonight?"
"Yes."
Carly arched an eyebrow, "He doesn't want to know what's in it?"
"No. Which is strange."
"We need to find out."
"That's the plan, I want you to meet me in the south parking lot at the marina tonight at eleven, we'll take things from there. Did you see Jason?"
Carly opened the door, "Just for a few minutes."
"Everything's going to work out." Skye assured her.
"After everything we've done to set this up, it better."
~~~~~~~~
It was ten fifty seven, Skye pulled in to the paved parking lot. She parked the car and within seconds Carly open the door and climbed into to passengers seat.
"What's the plan?" Skye asked.
"The shipment is going to be unloaded in that warehouse over there, the boat has just approached the docks."
"Have you got any information on the ship?"
"Only that it came from the states."
"Once we get inside the warehouse we'll find out more."
Carly looked at Skye in shock, "In the warehouse?"
"Yes, how else are we going to pull this off?"
"So you think trying to get ourselves killed is going to help us find out more about the shipment?"
"Caroline, listen, we've had the blue prints to that warehouse for over two months now, we know every detail, how much security can there be?"
"Enough to get us killed."
"I don't think so, we've had this planned forever, all we have to do is take out a few guards if necessary."
"Okay, when the boat leaves the harbor, we'll wait until Caprice and his men have cleared out before we make our move."
Skye looked at her watch, "It's eleven o'clock on the dot." She opened the glove compartment and reached inside, she pulled out two pairs of black gloves, handing one set to Carly.
Skye began pulling on her gloves, "With Sonny giving us the go ahead things won't look as suspicious."
"I can't believe Sonny's letting you do this in the first place."
Skye reached back into glove compartment and took out gun and a silencer and screwed in to the barrel of the gun, then handed it to Carly. She did the same thing to the second gun.
"Why, he just asked me to observe something. No danger there." Skye pointed out.
"Have you ever fired a gun?" Carly asked.
"I've had alot of target practice and one of the best teachers."
"Sonny?"
"God no, Sonny would never let me touch a gun. Luis showed me."
Carly sighed, "Skye that was over ten years ago, do you think you still remember?"
Skye turned to face Carly, "How hard can it be, you aim and you fire."
"I hope you're right."
