Circumstances
Skye looked over at Carly, "Are you ready?"
"Let's rock and roll."
The car door flung open and the stepped out, shutting the doors behind them. Skye held the gun down to her side, praying that she wouldn't have to use it. In the other hand she held a flashlight. Quietly they made their way over to the warehouse.
Skye stopped at the corner and looked around, she turned back around at looked at Carly, "There's a guard at the main door. I'll go around the back way, you distract him."
Carly nodded in agreement, she placed the gun in the back of her pants. She bent down picking up a small rock, she stepped out into the light and began walking down the pier, the guard looked up, noticing the clanking of heels. Carly dropped the rock in her hand making a loud noise.
She dropped to her knees, the guard walked over to her, "Miss, can I help you with something?"
"No, that 's okay." Carly started to sob.
"Are you sure?" He asked.
"Yeah, it's just that my husband and I had the huge fight and I took my wedding band off and I was carrying it in the hand and I've dropped it." Carly pretended to be in search of the ring.
"Let me help you." He insisted.
Carly sniffled, "Thank you."
Carly seen Skye walking up the pier behind the guard, Skye motioned to Carly to look further towards the end of the pier.
"I think it may have bounced." Carly told him.
He moved close to the edge, searching for the ring, Skye slowly came up behind him and shoved him over the edge. His body made a splash as he hit the water.
"Come on, we don't have much time." Skye grabbed Carly's hand, pulling her in direction of the warehouse.
Carly tried to turn the knob on the door, "Uh, it's locked."
"Stand back." Skye instructed. She took the gun in her right hand, aimed it at the lock and began firing bullets.
Carly looked at Skye in disbelief, she placed her hand on the door knob and when she turned it, the door opened, "Where did you learn that?"
"In an old movie." She commented as they made their way into the warehouse. Carly searched around the boxes, Skye picked a crow bar up and handed it to her, "Here."
"Thanks."
Carly pried open the top of the box as Skye held the flashlight over top. Finally the last nail popped up, "Skye, I need a little more light."
She adjusted the flashlight angle, "Better?"
"Yeah." Carly moved her gloved hand inside, check out the contents.
Skye looked around, making sure no one was on to them yet, "What's in it?"
Carly held her hand up under Skye's nose, "Smell."
"Coffee."
Carly poured the contents in her hand back into the box.
"Why would Sonny care about coffee?" Skye asked confused. She lifted the top of the box off the floor and started to place it on top the box.
Carly grabbed the flashlight, "Wait!"
"What?"
Carly placed her hand back in the box, but this time shoved her hand further down into the coffee, when she pulled her hand out she held a plastic bag in her hand. "Here." She handed it to Skye.
Skye held the flashlight over top the bag, "Cocaine?"
Carly covered the coffee back up, "Maybe, how much do you think is in here?"
"Boat loads." She handed the bag back to Carly, "Come on we have to get out of here and fast."
They made their way out of the building and into an alley. Carefully they crossed the street and into the parking lot.
Skye took the gun she was holding and tossed it into the passengers seat, she got in her car slamming the door and quickly took her gloves off, unscrewed the silencer off the gun and placed them in the glove compartment.
Carly pulled the gun out of the back of her pants and then climbed into her car, she placed the gun under the seat, started the car and took off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Skye opened the door and made her way into the conference room. Sonny and his Attorney were discussing bail.
"Do you think you could give me a few minutes alone with Skye."
"Sure." John agreed, "I'll be waiting outside."
John exited the room and Skye walked over to Sonny, she placed one hand on the back of his chair and the other on the table, she leaned forward into him, giving him full view down her free flowing blouse. She was trying to make her visit look convincing. She placed her mouth next to his ear.
"A coffee company from the States." She whispered.
Sonny nodded, "Good."
"What's next?"
"Nothing." He whispered back.
Skye slowly stepped away from him, "Why?"
"Because I said so." Sonny said sternly
Skye sighed heavily and walked around the table and sat down, "When are you you getting out of here?"
Sonny shook his head, "There's going to be a bail hearing tomorrow morning."
"Do you think you'll get it?"
"Most definitely."
Skye remained silent.
"How are the children?" Sonny asked.
"They're fine, they don't know anything."
"Good."
"Well, I have to be there before our children get home, so I'll get going. You probably have somethings to discuss with John anyway." Skye got up from her seat and walked towards the door.
"The hearing's at ten o'clock."
"I'll be here."
"Skye?"
She turned around and smiled, "Yeah?"
"L'amo." He said with a heavy accent
"I love you too." She turned and walked out the door.
~~~~~~~~~~
Skye sat on the back porch at the Corinthos Villa with Isabella in her lap. It was hard to believe that she was already five months old. She watched as Max and Zach playing football in the large, open yard while Antonio struggled desperately to keep up.
Isabella began to squirm, Skye picked her up off her lap and turned her around to face her, "What's wrong princess?" She picked up the stuffed bear and began moving it around in front of her daughter, who quieted down.
The clanking of high heels sounded in the distance, as they got louder Skye turned around, "It's about time you got here."
Before Carly could answer, Zoe and Michael went running down the stairs and into the yard, yelling, "Hi Aunt Skye." In unison as they passed her.
Carly took a seat beside Skye, "I brought the stuff."
"Have you checked it out?"
"No, not yet."
Skye got up from the steps, she walked over and placed the baby in her playpen, "What are we waiting on?"
"I'm ready when you are." Carly got up off the steps.
Skye opened the door, "Marco."
"A few seconds later he appeared, "Yes Mrs. Corinthos?"
"Could you keep an eye on the children for a little while?"
Marco came out onto the porch, "Sure can."
Carly and Skye disappeared into the house. They made their way through the hallway into the kitchen, opened a door and entered the wine cellar. Skye firmly closed the door behind them. Carly took the bag of powder out of her purse and laid it on the small table. Skye handed her a ice pick.
A small cut was made across the bag, freeing some of the contents. Carly placed the ice pick down on the table. She looked over at her sister in law.
Skye wiped her index finer across the opening of the bag, then she put the tip of her finger into her mouth. She removed it and swallowed hard.
"What is it?" Carly asked.
