Superman

"Where ya going Sonny?" Olivia asked him, she was sitting right on the porch bench. Why had he been so stupid to leave at the easiest exit to get caught at.

"I'm leaving, look I know you don't like that idea, but I've been called some where and need to go now." He urged, trying to make a run for it. She caught his hand though and she was strong for a girl.

"You're not going no where until you tell me why. Is it your business, the business that evil maniac step-father got you caught up in? What happened to the star basketball player I used to know?" Her tone was cruel and hard as she talked about Deke. Her mentioning the business gave him a good idea, one of his contacts could help him find Claudia.

"No, look, Olivia, I don't belong here anymore. All the memories here are too painful and I have to move on." His eyes pleaded with her to just let him go. Every second he wasn't putting into finding Claudia the less time she had.

"Can I come with?" She asked. She had always been a copycat, ever since he had known her. Wanted to be one of the boys. Any other time he would've said sure, but she would slow him down and that wouldn't work.

"No you can't, it isn't like that. I'm not coming back, you resent Connie cause she left you don't want to be exactly like her." He tried to let her down easy, she was five months pregnant and he didn't want to upset her. Thank God the kid wasn't his or else he would be tied to stay. She got up and hugged him.

"Try and take care of yourself please." She begged.

"I will. You take care of yourself and that baby. You're gonna be a great mom with or without his dad." They both smiled and he took off. Running down the porch steps, running down the street, running away from his old life.

When he was well outside city limits he pulled out his phone, dialing one of his mentors. "Hey Greg. I need you to find someone and when you do I'm gonna need a lot more help. Are you willing to do it?" Sonny's urgency surprised the man on the other line and imposed him to help.

"Sure Sonny I'll help. Who ya need me to find?" Greg asked almost immediately.

"A Claudia Zacchara. I don't have a middle name, but she shouldn't be too hard to find. Just call this number when you find her." Sonny was starting to really like his connections, and for the first time thanked Deke for something..

"Gotcha. Where you sleeping tonight?" Greg being a mentor wondered a lot about this kid who had asked to study the business under him.

"Under the pearl bay bridge, it's the safest place and I got my gun if I need it. Look I gotta go before anyone tries to steal the phone. Thanks." Sonny closed the phone then dragged his stuff under the bridge. Nobody would bother him there or at least he hoped.

XOXOXOXO

She had to go to school today and the makeup wasn't covering her bruises. She would have to make up some lame cover story again, that made her sound even more clumsy than she already was. Her face hurt as she applied the makeup evenly onto her face, cringing every time she barely touched a sensitive area. "Dammit!" She cursed under her breath. She checked the clock, she was going to miss the bus unless she ran. Good thing she was wearing her Converse today.

She made it just in time for the bus. She scanned for a possible seat, the only one with Elizabeth Webber, she would take it. It was better than sitting alone. Carly Spencer and Jasper Jacks were sitting together, Sam McCall and Jason Quartermaine were sitting together; these were the two couples in the freshman class. Then for the senior class Alexis Davis and Jerry Jacks had been going out since they had started high school.

Elizabeth couldn't help but stare at her cuts and bruises. "What happened to you Claudia?" She asked actually concerned for the well being of Claudia.

"I fell down like a flight of stairs. It's a lot worse than it looks." Claudia explained, but that's when Liz got her phone out and started telling everyone what a klutz Claudia was. Just wonderful, just efffin' wonderful. Claudia thought to herself. She pulled out her ipod and started blasting it.

She had a feeling this day was going to get a lot worse.

XOXOXOXOXO

The phone woke him up early, hopefully it was Greg. Last night Claudia had been all bandaged up, but he knew those scars never truly healed. He bore a few scars himself. He rummaged through the sac. Finally he found the phone. He cleared his throat than answered.

"Did you find her?" He asked quickly, putting no phone etiquette into play.

"Yeah, she lives in this little town called Port Charles, New York. Attends Port Charles High, freshman. There's something weird though." Greg paused for a question from Sonny but never got one. "In her school picture she's all bruised up. Anyway what do you need next." Greg questioned.

"I need to start attending Port Charles High. Pretend to be my father, make up grades, make me a senior, get my name all over the internet as a basketball star, and make sure they accept me. I'll start attending tomorrow." Sonny commanded.

"Okay, I'll buy an apartment too that you can stay in, I'll have one of my drivers come get you and take you there. Food and stuff will all be provided Sonny. Just do what you're going to do, I'll take care of the rest." Greg explained.

"Thanks so much. What do you have like three phones? A driver just pulled up now. Can you get me clothes too. Make sure they look athletic." Sonny wasn't actually lying about being a basketball star, so it worked.

"No problem, bye. Talk to you soon." And with that Sonny hung up.

He was gonna rescue her, he was gonna be her superman.
