Sonny gathered all the guards around his house and alerted them of the extra security needed. It was when he had dismissed them that he realized that Mike was missing, his driver. "Where's Mike?" he asked Max.

"I don't know sir" replied Max.

"Hm," thought Sonny. "Look into it please" Sonny walked out of his front room and back into his living room where Emily was. She had gone up to put some jeans and a shirt he noticed. "You okay?" he asked.

"Where did Jason go? He left when I went to go change." Emily asked afraid what Sonny might answer.

"I honestly don't know Em, he left and I don't understand why either. My guess he's going to look for Manny himself" Sonny confided in Emily.

"And you let him go?" Emily asked upset.

"What did you want me to say, I don't tell Jason what to do" Sonny said. "Yes, I'm his boss but he doesn't follow all my orders, and he does things Jason's way!" Sonny told Emily. "Try not to worry" Sonny told her trying to calm her down.

"But you do everything he says" Emily shot back. Sonny looked straight at her surprised.

"What do you mean?" Sonny asked.

"Nothing" Emily said standing up and putting her coat on. She had a feeling that Jason had a talk with Sonny and that was the reason why he was pushing her away. She knew that he really didn't love her, but she felt that Jason might have had something to do with the way he was pushing her away lately.

"Emily where do you think your going?" asked Sonny.

"I'm leaving I can't handle you looking at me and knowing that I love you and that you don't it's embarrassing. You're shutting me out whether it was because Jason asked you too or because you just don't want me here anymore, or because you feel weird having me here. That's fine Sonny, but don't expect me to not notice that you treat me differently or that you're walking on eggshells cause of me." Emily said raising her voice. She was right, Sonny knew it. He did act different with her and it was because of Jason. It wasn't for the reasons that she thought, though, it was cause he was in love with her.

"Emily I don't have time for this right now." Sonny cut her off and sat at his desk telling her he wanted to be alone without words.

"Very well" she left the house and slammed the door on her way out.

"MAX!" Sonny yelled. Max hurried in the living room where Sonny was. "You follow her and make sure that not even her feet get wet in the snow, do you hear me?" Sonny ordered. "I also don't want Mike driving her around that will be your job." Just as Sonny ordered he saw the headlights through his window. She didn't leave with Mike, she left in her own car, but she was still in danger. "Go!" Sonny said.

Emily got out of her car and started heading to the entrance of General Hospital. It was snowing so hard and she felt as bad as the whether. It was late just after the New Year but she couldn't be at Sonny's anymore. God why did she act on impulse like that? She was starting to act like Carly and she knew it. She never had snapped at Sonny. While walking to the entrance she began to speed up. It was late and she regretted not leaving with Max. She dropped her keys and knew she would have to look for them and it would take her forever. "Geez!" she said. As she was looking for them all she heard was a loud bang on the back of her head and she saw black and she was out.

Sam was back at the cottage. She was starving and thirsty but refused to eat anything that Manny brought; if he ever showed up. She had been here for a couple of hours she thought. The window had some sort of metal cover on it so she couldn't see outside. Manny had not come at all and was not any where near she figured because she had not heard the voices outside anymore. Who was that voice, it sounded so familiar, but she was still trying to match it up with a face. Just then the door opened and Sam could feel the cold air from outside. Some snow crept in and there was a man that came in she never seen before. "Hello pretty, I brought you a friend." The man smiled and although he smiled he still looked evil to her. He had the coldest eyes that she had ever seen and he seemed merciless. The man dropped what looked like a girl on the couch where Sam was earlier. She was now in a corner. Sam realized that the girl was bleeding and was already tied up. Then when her brown hair fell back she saw who it was.

"Emily!" Sam said scared for the simple fact that she was bleeding.

"So you do know each other" the man said sarcastically. "Well have fun girls." The man walked out and left Sam and Emily alone. Emily was still out and Sam tried to clean her up with the loose newspapers on the floor. At least reduce the bleeding a little. Emily came around after a couple of minutes and saw Sam.

"Oh God, I'm hallucinating" She said more to herself than Sam but Sam heard.

"No your not," Sam began. "Are you okay?"

Emily finally came to her senses and was so relived to see Sam herself. "I'm so glad your okay." Emily said, whishing she could hug her friend.

"Is Jason okay?" Sam asked.

"Yeah, worried sick about you" Emily said. The girls were disappointed to find out that their hands were tied in a way that they couldn't help each other untie. Finally, Emily got a little loose and decided to help Sam get untied first. Sam got free and then freed Emily. "What the hell is this place?" asked Emily rubbing her wrist.

"Manny's house, I don't know?" Sam said. Both women thought that they could break free but they couldn't. Sam went to the door and Emily to the window. Sam tried to open the door but the door would not budge. It had to be locked in a way that it could only be opened from the outside because there wasn't even a lock on the inside. Emily was at the window, she first of all could not break it no matter what she threw at it, but even if she could she would have to do something about the metal protection from the outside. They were trapped.
