Jason woke up in a hospital bed his arm pierced with needles connecting him to machines and IV. He looked around him but as he sat up he felt immdiate pain going through his shoulder. Slowly he laid himself back down. Suddenly Monica Quartermaine, Alan and Emily all busted through the door of his hospital room.
"Oh god Jason you're alright" Monica said sighing as she moved to her son.
"Mom what happened?" Jason asked.
"You went to go and get Sam" Emily told him.
Jason looked up at her. He suddenly rememebered his evening. "Is she alright?" he asked. He still coudn't remember weither he was able to get her out of Alcazar's or not.
Emily shook her head. "No." she said as soft as a whisper. "Courtney got away with her"
Jason felt his heart sink. The pit of his stomach was hard and his hands shook. "Weren't the police there?" Jason asked.
"They came to late" Monica answered.
Jason rested his head on the palm of his hand. "I was so damn close" he muttered.
Alan looked at his son with disgust. He wanted to chew him out and yank him by the ear punishing him for his stupidity. "How could you do this?" Alan asked his voice bitter. "Getting this girl pregnant"
Monica looked at Alan with fierce eyes. "Alan you said-"
"Monica I don't care. None of this would be happening if Jason was smart enough to not jump on some girl he didn't know" Alan said rage in his strong voice.
"Listen dad I am being responsible. I'm going to raise this child with Sam" Jason told his father.
"No Jason if you were responsible you wouldn't have a child to raise. And if you were responsible this girl wouldn't be gone because of your job. The both of you would be somewhere safe far away from that mobster you live with." Alan said. "If you want to keep this child safe you need to set your priorities straight"
Monica glared at her husband and grabbed him by the arm. "Alan that's enough" she said as she headed toward the door. Alan gave his son one last glare and then followed his wife out of the room. Emily stared at her brother who sat with glossy eyes.
"Sam's going to be alright" Emily told him as she grabbed his arm trying to comfort her.
Jason nodded her head. "She's a fighter." he said. "She'll pull through"
Sam lifted her head off of the soft pillow it rested on. She slowly scanned the room around her. She was in a hospital. Continuing to look around her Sam rememebered what had happened that night.
"Jason don't make me shoot!" Courtney yelled stopping Jason. She felt as though she had no control over her body now as she held the gun above Sam's head.
Sam slowly opened her eyes finding that she laid on the wet grass in the backyard of Alcazar's mansion. Her body shook as she tried to move. Something was going wrong. Then taking her brown eyes she looked above her to find a gun pointed at her face. She was starring death in the eye. Courtney was screaming to someone but Sam couldn't see who. Then she rememebered. Jason. Jason had come to save her. He was there. All she had to do was stop Courtney.
From her sitting position on the ground Sam tugged on the gun pushing it away from her head. Courtney immediatley flashed her eyes from Jason over to Sam and fought with her over the rifle. Jason who stood close by immediatley started to run towards the two of them. Then as he reached them he tackled Courtney to the ground the gun still in her hands. As Jason and Courtney fought on the ground Sam immediatley started to run away but froze when she heard a gun shot.
Courtney had shot Jason. He immediatley fell to the ground and winced in pain still shouting at Sam to run. Sam tried to but found pain rushing through her body as she looked down at her leg. Blood sipped through it and a bullet pierced it's skin. Dropping down to her knees Sam couldn't hang on any longer and let her body fall to the ground.
Sam tried to lift herself out of the hospital bed but it was no use. She looked around the room trying to find something to help her. Then only two feet from her bed was a coat rack. Throwing off the single jacket Sam took it holding it with her two arms. Then swinging it around she pointed it two the purse which sat on the window seal. Hooking the metal poll onto the shoulder straps of the purse Sam pulled it in and dropped it onto the bed. Quickly putting the coat rack back to where it was Sam grabbed the purse. It was Courtney's purse the only person with a purse Sam could think of being in her hospital room. Plowing through the leather bag Sam found the small silver cellphone that was inside. Flipping it open Sam dialed the numbers she knew by heart with shaking hands.
Jason sat up in his bed suddenly hearing his cellphone ring. Reaching for his leather jacket that lay at the end of the bed he pulled out the cellphone and answered. "Hello?"
"Jason it's Sam" Sam said quietly.
Jason felt his heart lift. "Sam where are you? Are you okay?" he asked immediatley.
"Jason you and Sonny need to come and get me. I'm at St. Vincent's hospital in Boston" Sam said. She knew it had to be that hospital. She had lived in Boston her whole life.
Jason was now out of bed and throwing on his clothes as easily as he could. "Sam I don't know if we can get down there in time you're going to have to stall" Jason told her
"I'll try my best" Sam said. Hearing footsteps down the hall Sam paniced. "Jase I have to go" she said hanging up the phone. She immediatley shoved it into the purse and then taking the bag threw it across the room to where it used to be. Just then Courtney walked into the room.
Jason ran out of his hospital room and into the hallway. "Jason what are you doing?" Emily asked stopping him.
Jason turned around to face his sister. "Sam, she's at the hospital in Boston" Jason spat out. "Emily just call the police. Tell them to go to St. Vincents"
