Here chapter 1. This helps to clarify some, and gives you a sense of the characters, not all of them will be major players in my story, but I needed to get some base for the plot
--------------------
Chapter 1
Carly shot up in bed. It had been so long since she thought about that night, or even dreamed about it. She had been so scared that night, not only for herself, but her best friend, her sister. She had been so scared that they would die, but they didn't, and they had always wished they had.
It had been so long since they had seen one another, and Carly knew that her friend still lived that life. She lived that life because Carly had been too afraid to do it. So her friend, her sister, took the burden of their survival on her shoulders, and set Carly free, but Carly would never be free.
Carly would carry the pain of her actions with her. Even in her new life, with her family, she still carried it. She never told her best friend, her ex-lover, or even her birth Mother, no one. She hadn't even told her husband about her past, she definitely couldn't tell him.
She looked to her side. Her husband lay asleep next to her. She never thought herself to be the married type after everything happened, but she was. It had only taken her god knows how many walks down the isle, to get it right, and things still weren't perfect.
She had gone through so much. When she first came to town she was pissed. She had come to find her birth mother, but it wasn't the reunion one would expect. Carly had destroyed her mothers life took everything she cared for, all because she was mad.
Then there was Jason. She had used him. She had used him to protect her son from his psycho father, or so she had said. It had all been a ruse. She had wanted him. She needed him, but she never had him the way she thought she wanted and needed him. After her son was born she had herself committed. Not for the reasons one might think. Sure she couldn't handle raising him at the time, but she was afraid to.
What if her past came back? The one no one knew about. Her son would have been in trouble and she couldn't handle that.
Her life had been a mess. She had to deal with that thing. That man whom clamed to be his father. She had to deal with AJ. That however didn't last long as she soon met Sonny.
He changed her world. As rocky as there relationship was in the beginning, it wasn't any more. They had truly fallen in love and not even a bullet to the head could stop it.
She lay back down in bed and cuddled up to her husband. God she loved him. He had given her a reason to live. He had given her their sons, and she couldn't be happier. Closing her eyes she drifted back to sleep thinking of all the good, and forgetting the past.
-.-
It was late, just past midnight. She sat awake at her desk looking through the files, the ones on Port Charles. She had a job to do there and needed all the info she could get to do that job, and get it done fast.
She liked to have all the info on the residents of the town. It helped with her work. She could figure out how to play people off one another to get what she wanted.
Picking up the file on the community she scanned it. Nicholas Cassadine, and Emily Quartermaine. They were engaged to be married, Parents didn't approve, Grandmother had cursed them. She had to laugh at that. It was funny. Nothing special about them, the girl could possibly be used. They shouldn't question her motives. In fact the whole Quartermaine clan seemed like they would be easily fooled, they seemed crazy, so no problems there.
Spencer's seemed easy enough to fool. They all seemed to be tied up at the time. Bobbie with work, Lucky was a cop, but he was tied up with his brother the Cassadine, and his brother's fiancé. Laura was nowhere in sight. She had disappeared a while back, and Luke was busy with his girl friend, and that murder charge of hers.
The Webber's, Heather was in town. She was crazy, and if she recognized the blonde it would be trouble, but she could be shut up. Steven wouldn't rat on her, he had tried to help, so she was good there. Elizabeth was married to Ric Lansing at one time. She wasn't a threat, and had no clue as to who the blonde was.
Alexis Davis, Aunt of the Cassadine heir. She has a small child, Kristina. She was a lawyer, currently dating Lansing. No big, if she ever needed representation perhaps she would be sought out.
She looked over the info on the local mob, the only other problem that she might find in P.C., that or the cops. Corinthos, Morgan, Rosco, and Alcazar.
Rosco was no threat, she was in jail, and wouldn't be a problem. She wasn't good enough to be one. Sure some could make a play from a cell, some could do it from six feet under, but Rosco was sloppy.
Alcazar was in that town, the other brother. He had his niece staying with him. She had orders not to hurt the girl. She knew the reasons behind it. She laughed to herself. It had been so long since she had seen the old man die, and know his oldest son was dead, and the younger one was on the verge of getting himself shot. She wasn't sure what was going through the guy's head. He had a niece, that had more ties to a dangerous life than any were aware.
Alcazar was dumber than he looked. To go after a mans wife, Sonny Corinthos wife for that matter, was dumb. Not to mention working with the Federal Prosecutor to help take him down. He had hired Lana. That girl was sloppy, and would mess up in a heartbeat, it was his life, if he had a death wish who was she to argue.
Morgan and Corinthos. Corinthos had a pregnant mistress living with his enforcer. Dumb. Morgan was living with Ms. Sam McCall. She was due in November, or December. That was about 3 months seeing as it was only September. Morgan had a need to help people. That could be useful.
Corinthos was a family man two sons, a daughter on the way. He had a wife. They had had some problems. She could use that, and Alcazar to help manipulate it more. Scanning down through the boring stuff on affairs, and his business her eyes fell on a name. A familiar name. It couldn't be true. It couldn't be her. It was, her best friend was married to Corinthos, and had children with the man.
Putting the files down she grabbed the file on her job. She hadn't looked very closely at them, but she needed to know why she had been called in. There it was in black and white. She wasn't sure she could do it. Could she destroy her friend's life?
Courtney didn't have much time to think about it as she heard a sniffle. Looking up she saw her blonde hair blue-eyed baby girl. She held her arms out for the girl. The little three year old waddled up to her mother and crawled in her lap. She snuggled into her mothers stomach as she shut her eyes and went back to sleep.
She looked at her little girl. Kyle had promised her out. Yet here she was getting pulled back in.
Lifting her daughter into her arms she carried her to her room and set her in bed. She watched her daughter sleep.
She would deal with it in the morning. Figure out her plan, talk to Kyle. Get some pictures of people, prove her suspicions right. She wasn't sure she could do this anymore. She didn't want to do it.
