Truths
Part Four
Lucky and Laura pulled up in front of the PCPD. Laura had looked out the window the entire way, preparing herself for meeting her stepson. Ever since Lucky had told her about Alex and Nikolas, she couldn't believe it. All along, she could have told Luke about Nikolas and they could've brought him home to Port Charles. After all, Helena didn't have a true hold on him at all.
Laura and Lucky got out of the car and headed into the station, heading right to the visitors desk.
"Yes?" the man sitting there asked.
"We are here to see Zander Smith," Lucky said, using the name his brother had been raised with,
The man nodded and placed a small book on the counter. "Sign the book, please."
Lucky and Laura both signed the book and then were guided through security. Once through, they were taken down the hall to the room where they would visit with Alex.
"Smith, you've got some visitors!" the guard called down the hall.
Alex smiled. He'd been getting more visitors in the past couple of days. He was enjoying it. Maybe this time it was once of his brothers, or Emily, or his father or mother or stepmother. Maybe even Sonny and Carly. Just as long as it wasn't Sorel.
He approached his cell door and once again was cuffed and taken down the hall. He entered the visitation room to find his brother Lucky leaning against the wall and a beautiful blonde woman sitting in the chair.
"Hey, Lucky. Good to see you," he said as he sat down.
"Good to see you too, bro. This is no ordinary visit, you know," Lucky said with a smirk on his face.
"I realize that," Alex said, turning from his brother to the woman. "I'm guessing that you're my stepmother."
Laura nodded. "I am. My name is Laura. You must excuse my surprise at seeing you. You look so much like Holly, but yet, you look like a Spencer."
"I understand. My existence is a shock to everyone. And I'm glad that I look like both my mom and dad. It feels like I finally belong somewhere," Alex said.
"Well, when you get out of here, we'll get a family picture done. How does that sound?" Laura asks him.
"That sounds great. The entire Spencer family together for the first time. They way we always should have been," Alex said.
Laura nodded. "You're right. But what matters is that we're together now. Somehow, you found your way here and now that the truth is out , we can finally be happy. No more Spencer/Cassadine feud. Helena's influence over this family is gone. We've won!"
"That's right. Thanks to Cassie telling us the truth, we've won. Helena has lost!" Lucky said with a smile.
A Greek Island
A woman walks along the shoreline as her children ride horses behind her. She sighs as she thinks of all she had to give up after she was believed to have been killed, as well as her elder children over 20 years ago.
A servant comes up behind her. "Mistress, Master Andreas is on the phone for you."
She nods and heads into the house. She enters her private office and picks up the phone. "Andreas, what news do you have for me today?"
"Mistress, I have good news. The truth about Nikolas and Mr. Smith is out thanks to Cassandra Lavery. Master Mathias is now free to stake his claim to the fortune," Andreas Andropolus says across the wire.
"Thank you, Andreas. How is my mother-in-law taking the news?" The woman asks.
"She's angry. Angry at everyone. I had to actually leave the yacht to make this call. I swear she's about ready to kill someone," Andreas reports to her.
"See to it that she doesn't until we arrive in Port Charles. I will get our travel plans made immediately. Secure us lodging there, Andreas," she commands.
"Already done. Wyndemere is wide open since Stefan's disappearance," Andreas informs her.
"Of course. We will be there soon," the woman tells him.
"I will se you soon, mistress. I am looking forward to it," Andreas says before they hang up.
The woman walks out of her office and back out into the main room of the house and calls upon one of the servants. "Bring my children into the house within the hour. I have something I must speak to them about. And call my business manager and have him come as soon as possible. I have things I need him to do."
"Yes, mistress Alana," the servant says before obeying her mistress's commands.
The woman, Alana, sits down heavily in a chair in the main room and lets the news fill her with happiness. Finally, her son would finally receive what truly belonged to him. Finally, a wrong would be righted as an evil woman finally received her final defeat.
Her children came into the room a moment later. "Mother, what do you need to talk to us about?" her eldest son asks.
"Mathias, Dimitria, Natalia, Alexander, please sit down. I have some good news to tell you," Alana says, waving her children to the other chairs and couches in the room.
They all sit, wondering what the good news could be.
Their mother wastes no time once they are seated. "Andreas called with the news of Helena's defeat, thanks to Cassandra Lavery," she tells them.
"When did this happen?" her daughter Dimitria asks.
"Just yesterday. She told Luke, my dear cousin, the fact that Nikolas and young mister Smith are his sons. Helena is angry because she does not have an heir. Or so she thinks," Alana says.
"So I can finally receive what truly belongs to me. The title, the fortune, the power is finally mine to claim," Mathias says determinedly.
"That is right. The right that Helena thought she had yanked away will be restored soon. We will be traveling to Port Charles soon to defeat Helena for the last time. Our appearance will destroy Helena's plans and everything will be as it should be.
"Will we have a place to stay once we get there?" Natalia asks her mother,
"We will be staying at Wyndemere. It is the family home in Port Charles and it has been vacant since your uncle Stefan disappeared," Alana tells them.
"How soon will we leave?" Alexander asks his mother.
"As soon as the plans are made. I am meeting with my business manager as soon as possible. I will say within the next two weeks, we will be in Port Charles," Alana says.
Her children cheer in happiness as they rise from their chairs and embrace their mother.
"Finally the attempted murders of Dimitria Melisande Stavrolavna, Mathias Nathaniel Stavrosovich, Alexander Lucas Stavrosovich, Natalia Eleni Stavrolavna, and Alana Lindsey Meade-Cassadine will be avenged," Alana Lindsey Meade-Cassadine proclaims to her children. The elder and only children of Stavros Cassadine, the eldest of Helena's sons, finally near their destiny of ruling the Cassadine family. It would be only a few more weeks and they would have everything that they had been denied for 20 years.
You got the touch
You got the power
After all is said and done
You've never walked, you've never run,
You're a winner
You got the moves, you know the streets
Break the rules, take the heat
You're nobody's fool
You're at your best when when the goin' gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough
You got the touch
You got the power
When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding the eye of the storm
You got the heart
You got the motion
You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch
You never bend, you never break
You seem to know just what it takes
You're a fighter
It's in the blood, it's in the will
It's in the mighty hands of steel
When you're standin' your ground
And you never get hit when your back's to the wall
Gonna fight to the end and you're takin' it all
You got the touch
You got the power
When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding the eye of the storm
You got the heart
You got the motion
You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch
You're fightin' fire with fire
You know you got the touch
You're at your best when when the road gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough
You got the touch
You got the power
You got the touch
You got the power

The children all go up to their rooms to begin their preparations for the trip that would take them to their new home. Port Charles.
Alana got up from her chair and walked up to the mantle, when a picture of her late husband was displayed. "Finally, my love, the power that once belonged to you will belong to your eldest son, The Cassadine Legacy will be Mathias's and your death, which your own mother caused to happen, will be avenged," Alana said tot he portrait of the man she had fallen in love with so many years ago. Stavros Cassadine.
"I will always love you, Stavros. I'll always love the kind hearted man I fell in love with all those years ago. Wish us luck, my darling," she said, placing a kiss on the lips of the portrait before stepping away to begin her own preparations for the trip to Port Charles.
