A/N thanks to all that have read and reviewed!

Jason didn't hear anything from Spinelli the night before as he started his morning a knock on the door pulled him away from his coffee and he walked over pulling it open to see the young man. "Spinelli." He held the door open gesturing for him to come in.

"Greetings, Stone Cold." The hacker called back less cheerful then the normal.

"I'm assuming you have the information?" He asked cutting to the chase.

Spinelli nodded and with a sigh took a seat on the couch. "Why did you need it on a child, it's not a usual request."

Jason took the seat beside Spinelli. "She's my daughter, only found out yesterday."

"The young man paled. "This girl, Annabell is your daughter?" Spinelli's tone was odd, almost somber and it made the hair on Jason neck raise.

"Yes. What did you find?" He clutched the strap f his bag, he felt his heartache for Stone Cold and the girl. When Jason asked for information he assumed it was something different entirely and to now know it was because this girl was Jason daughter made him wish it had been for something else. "I….I."

"Spinelli!" Jason snapped at the man.

Spinelli looked down. "I did find what you required but I fear you will not like it."

He had a feeling he wasn't either but it had to be done. "Just tell me."

Spinelli reached in the the bag producing a large file and handing it to Jason. "That's everything but the cliff notes are Annabell Sara Lenux, 19 years old born in New Jersey, New York, Mother Susan May Lenux lived in Port Charles until 1990 when she moved to New Jersey and still currently resides."

"Susan Lenux is alive! Anna told Carly and I she was dead." Why the hell was she lying to him, again.

He shook his head. "Don't be quick to judge the Princess of Stone." The new name rolled off his tongue.

"She's lying to my face."

"I wouldn't blame her for wishing that were true. Jason in that file are numerous reports of ER visits and CPS reports, Annabell Lenux is no doubt a survivor of abuse." Just saying the words made him sad but more then his original reading of the file because she wasn't just some girl, she was a friend's daughter.

Jason felt like someone punched him in the gut, she had been abused, someone had hurt her as a child enough to send her to the ER more than once, what kind of mother did that. "Why, why wasn't she removed from her mother." He spat the word mother.

Spinelli sighed. "There was never proof against Susan Lenux." And he had looked, looked for anything to nail the woman with. "The abuse was traced back to several of Susan's boyfriend's and when it arose Susan denied any knowledge of what was going on and supposedly left the men." In Spinelli's opinion Susan was just as guilty if not more so.

Jason remember her reaction to his yelling yesterday and he felt bile creep up his throat, he swallowed hard, he looked at the folder in his hand and tossed to toward Spinelli. "Do I want to read that Spinelli?" He normally was not the one asking for the advice but he did know the extent of that file.

Shaking his head, he picked up the file and slipped it back in to his bag. "No, no you really don't. I've told you the biggest part of that file but I don't think you need the graphic details."

Jason was silent for a long moment. "I what the names Spinelli, every fucking one of them."

He knew Jason well and pulled one slip of paper from a pocket of the bag and set it on the table. "I'm sorry, Jason."

The older man glanced to the paper before meeting his friends eyes. "It's not your fault, Spinelli. I need to get a few things done."

Spinelli saw the dismissal coming and stood. "Stone Cold, I would like to meet her sometime." He called as he opened the door and slipped out.

Jason wanted to destroy the damn penthouse the only thing keeping that urge at bay was that Anna should have to come over to a place torn apart by rage. Another knock on his door paused his murderous thoughts and he walked over whipping up the door with far more force then necessary. "What are you doing here?"

The dark haired woman raised a brow at him. "We had a meeting today?"

Jason ran a hand threw his hair. "I had a meeting with your brother today, so why are you here?"

"Someone is tasty today, figured you and John alone was a bad idea at the moment so I'm taking his place today." Claudia said moving past him and in to the penthouse.

He all but slammed the door and turned to her. "I settled things with Johnny. Let's just get this done."

"What the hell crawled up your ass, Morgan?" Though the man was trying to keep his mask in place, Claudia could see anger seeping through.

Jason ignored her question and went to his desk, pulling out the file for the shipments and handing it to the older Zacchara. "Take a look, see if that works for you."

She rolled her eyes, grabbing the folder she moved sitting on the couch and began to look over the information. "It looks fine, except the July 23 shipment, push it tell the 26th and it's good." She spoke a few minutes later.

He grabbed the folder from her and marked the change with a pen before returning the file to the desk as he did so he caught Claudia picking up the paper on the coffee table. "Put that down!"

A lesser woman would have jumped at the tone but Claudia was use to boisterous men, she merely glanced at him then to the paper. "Your losing your cool, Stone Cold." She quipped using the little hackers nickname.

Jason took three large steps to attempt at snack the paper from Claudia's hand only to have the woman pull it back before he could. "Give me the paper, now."

She looked at the paper and to Jason. "What's so important about this little scrap of paper."

Shaking his head he turned to the bar and pouring two drinks, it was only just past eleven in the morning but hell he needed one and Claudia would be relentless, he moved back to the woman and handed her a glass.

"Little early, but hell it's five o'clock somewhere. So the paper?" She asked reclining in her seat.

Jason sat on the coffee table in front of her. "A list of people that are going to pay." He replied darkly.

Claudia took a sip of her drink and nodded. "Pay for what?"

He downed his own drink, enjoying the burn. "For hurting Anna."

Realization dawned over Claudia face and she looked down at the page that listed four names, one woman and given the last name assumed it was the girls mother and the other three men with address , birth dates and phone numbers. "You ran a search on her, guessing it wasn't all sunshine and rainbow."

"No, it wasn't. "

"I'm sorry."

That was probably the first time he had ever heard the woman utter those words. "Why do you even care."

She meet his eye and didn't look away. "I maybe heartless but hurting a child, that makes someone nothing but a coward."
