Twelve hours later

Tracy has been all over town looking for her granddaughter she finally takes a break and grabs a cup of coffee when her cell phone rings. Tracy grabs it and answers it.

Tracy: hello?

Luke: Tracy

Tracy: This really isn't a good time!

Luke just hear me, I know where Brooklyn is.

Tracy: What! Don't tell me this is another one of your money schemes?

Luke: No, Stefan Cassidine took her pier number 28 near the end of the docks.

Tracy: Are you sure?

Luke: yes but wait I'll take care of it just give me a few hours to get the backup... Okay... Tracy?... Damn! she hung up!.

Tracy gets up and goes to her car, as Paul follows her. Tracy then starts the car and heads out to the docks.

Paul: where are you going?

Tracy : the docks Steve has her!

Paul: You mean Stefan Cassidine has her?

Tracy: Yes.

Paul: you mean your ex boyfriend!

Tracy who has been speeding suddenly stops in the middle of the road and almost causes an accident.

Tracy: WHAT! YOU IDIOT! STEVE'S NOT MY BOYFRIEND HE'S MY BROTHER!

Paul: what? I thought, you told me that Stefan is related to Dillon!

Tracy: He is My son that would mean that Stefan would be his uncle!

Paul: What I don't understand.

Tracy starts driving again.

Tracy: Okay let me explain...


At The Docks

Tracy and Paul arrive and Tracy decides that it is best that Paul stay inside. Helena Would have no problem killing someone outside her family. But her own flesh and blood is something that she wouldn't harm.

Tracy walks over to the entrance of the docks and goes and stops in front of the guards she gets the pat down then she is escorted by one of the guards into a living room like room. In the room she spots lulu and Brooklyn.

Brooklyn: Take a seat grandmother!

Tracy sits across from Lulu.

Tracy: Hi Lulu, I guess you were kidnapped?

Lulu: yeah something like that.

Brooklyn: (sarcastically) grandmother, I have a friend of yours, here!

Brooklyn goes in the other room and get Luke who is standing in front of a guard with a gun.

Luke: Hey Spanky.

Tracy: Brooklyn Let him and Lulu Go!

Brooklyn I cant not until you be a nice grandma and tell me where the money is?

Tracy: I don't have it and I never had it!

Helena: Enters the room with her son Stefan.

Tracy: Helena let them go!

Helena I don't think that's going to happen until you do what I say, After all I am your Mother

Luke: Mother?

Helena: Why don't you share the good news with your friend, after all you've known for quite a bit of time. Maybe you just was too afraid that Luke would dump you like a hot cake after he found out that you were A Cassidine. Or Maybe that you killed your own daughter-

Tracy: Shut up Helena!

Helena: No! I think he needs to hear this, all the dirty secrets that you have mine pale in comparison to yours, My dear daughter has turned out to be the most Vile and Vain in the bunch, you are even worse the Natasha.

Tracy: Well the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Luke: do you care to explain what is going on here?

Tracy: My father Edward as you know was quite a womanizer-

Luke: He still is-

Tracy: are you going to let me finish?

Luke: go ahead.

Tracy: Mother and Lila were cousins, distant cousins. Helena never really liked mother very much and mother had unknowingly caused Helena's then Fiancee to fall in love with her, and break there engagement. Helena vowed revenge, she tried many times to seduce daddy and it didn't work, until one day. Nine months later Mother and Helena Both gave birth Mother gave birth to a girl whom died a few hours after birth and Helena gave birth to me. Helena wanted a boy she didn't want it and by that time mother knew about me she knew that my life would be hell with Helena so they offered to switch the birth records. Helena agreed and that's the story I didn't find out till after Emma was born what really happened.

Lulu: Who's Emma?

Tracy: She was my daughter
