The next day the Morgans set out to their home in Malibu. They wanted to be there around lunch time and once they were settled in Jason was going to check on their new place. The house they were staying at was a rental until their new home was done. They were hoping to be in there around Christmas. The contractor was top notch in the area and Jason had he checked out to make sure that everything was legit. The ride from Las Vegas to Malibu was the shortest part of the trip but it seemed to be the most taxing on Elizabeth's nerves.
"Okay, I have a suggestion for the four of you. You play your games on your tablets and if you are good we will go see a movie tomorrow. Your pick but the four of you have to agree on it. We can either go to the theatre which is nice but I was thinking that we could have a movie night like we did at our old place. Pizza for supper and popcorn while watching the movie. You can each pick one and we can have a marathon. I just need a few hours of quiet. Is it a deal?" It was like magic. The four young boys turned on their tablets and put on their headphones and soon there was peace and quiet in their SUV.
"I will have to remember this once we get home. I love you Mrs. Morgan. I have been waiting to say that but it sounds so good. I want you to know that we will soon be very busy with school, and starting our new business. Are you ready to go into interior design? You can still paint but I think that it would be great for the two of us to work together." Jason grabbed hold of Elizabeth's hand and brought it up to his mouth and lightly kissed it. Elizabeth has also been waiting for them to be married and start a family together.
They soon were in California and pulled over to have breakfast. They ate at a small diner off the interstate that had the best pancakes around. They boys were starved and put a huge dent into the pancakes. Once they were back on the road, all of the boys fell asleep. Elizabeth looked out the window and loved that they would soon be pulling up to their house.
They parked the SUV at home and saw that the movers were there putting everything in the house already. Two of the men that were working on their new place helped the movers with where everything should go. At first Elizabeth didn't recognize the men that were working in the house. Then one of the turned around and she saw Johnny O'Brien. She was shocked at first and then she saw Francis Corelli. "I thought that you two had died. You are here and are working for the contractors on our new home. I am confused."
"Elizabeth, I saw Johnny a few weeks before we left for Port Charles. He recognized me first and then I saw Francis. I was shocked but happy that they are alive. I want them around here so that I know that we will be safe. They are going to be living with us while we have our place built and they will have their own place once the new house is finished." Elizabeth was both happy and relieved to find out that her friends were okay and that her family was going to be safe.
The boys ran to their bedrooms and saw that the beds were already put together and that their toys were waiting for them. The movers had finished and were leaving. They had done a great job with everything and made sure that everything was done the way that Jason wanted. Having Johnny and Francis there helped because they knew how Jason's mind thinks. They were aware that Jason didn't have all of his memories back but they knew what he liked and didn't even if he didn't remember.
Jason and Elizabeth looked at their place and realized that the new place was a lot bigger. They had been gone for a month from California but it seemed longer. They looked outside at the view from their bedroom. They could see down the coast in both directions. The balcony was one of the things that they made sure the contractors were going to have on their new home. The view was truly a sight to see especially at sunset.
Danny had never been to California so it was all new to him. Jake took his hand and brought him outside to see the ocean. Danny could not believe how big it was and he was a bit scared. Elizabeth went out and saw Jake holding his hand and pointing out the different things going on in the water. Elizabeth went over to Danny and Jake and they walked out onto the sandy beach. "Danny take off your shoes and socks. Feel how soft the sand feels and it's a bit cool too. Now, we are going to walk towards the water to see how that feels." Jake helped Danny take off his shoes and socks. They put them all together and then turned around towards the house to see Jason with Cam and Aiden. They walked over and took off their shoes and socks. Jake and Cam ran towards the water and stood there with the waves crashing around their feet. Aiden was used to the surf but Danny was not so sure about it. Jason had him on his shoulders while they walked into the water. Jason then took Danny down and let his stand in the water. They had only gone a few steps when the waves came by them. Danny could feel the pull of the tide and thought it was cool. "Now, this is very important lesson to learn, the tide is strong and we need to be out here if you are to go into the water or even close to the water because sometimes the waves can catch you when you are not expecting it." The boys went ahead of their parents and started to collect shells. Jason and Elizabeth walked hand in hand down the beach watching the boys collect seashells and chasing the seagulls.
They then turned back and walked to their home. Johnny had started the grill while Francis went to the store to get some hamburgers and hotdogs. The weather was perfect for a cookout. It was July so the days were hot and the nights were a little cooler especially with the breeze coming off the water. Jason was happy that Johnny looked so at home. Their cook was inside getting the salad, baked potatoes and everything else needed for their cookout. The boys went inside and changed into their swimsuits. They had talked their parents into letting them go swimming in their pool. Elizabeth and Jason went inside and got changed so they could join the boys in the pool.
While watching the boys play, Elizabeth called her sister, Sarah to see what was going on. "Sarah, just checking in on you and Nik. We are back here in Malibu and took the boys for a walk down the beach."
"I will be going to Port Charles for a few weeks so Nik can put his home up for sale and he is moving here for good. I was hoping that since you are homeschooling the boys that you would not mind taking in Spencer too."
"Spencer is welcome here anytime. I just need Nik to get me Spencer's information so we can plan on his schooling. There are certain things that are needed to do a plan for home-schooling. Especially if he is ahead of his classmates there and we make him do-over something that he has already done. That would be a waste of time for him and for schooling. I know that Cameron and Spencer were in school together so it should be an easy fit. Do you need to leave Spencer here while you go to Port Charles?"
"No, we plan on taking him with us. I just wanted to ask you for when you start up again in September. I want to know what we need to get him so he will be ready. Thanks. Liz. I owe you one."
"You have helped me so much these past few months. I want to thank you for that. Can you believe that I am married with four children already? I know that Danny is not my son but I feel that he is in my heart. The boys adore him and it looks like his mother is going to be in prison for a very long time. The same goes for Helena. How is Nik holding up with all of this going on?"
"He is doing very well considering his grandmother and cousin were the ones that had Jake kidnapped. I think that is why he is wanting to move here. I also hope it has something to do with me but we will see. I love you but I have to get packed. We are leaving in the morning. I do need one more favor. Can you check on my plants? I just need them watered every couple of days. There are a couple on my porch and then the ones in the living room and kitchen. Thank you."
"No problem. I have the key and code so it should be no problem. I love you and have a great trip back to Port Charles. I know Grams will love to see you." The two sisters hung up and Elizabeth went back to watching her boys swim.
Just then Jason went and picked up his wife and jumped into the pool. The boys laughed when they saw the look on their mother's face. She was not too happy to be thrown in but that lasted about two minutes and then the six of them were all smiles. Cam and Jake loved swimming in the deep end but their younger brothers wanted them in the shallow end with them. Jason was thinking about having a swimming instructor come to the house and teach the boys swimming and also life saving techniques.
Elizabeth swam over to Aiden and Danny and helped them get used to the pool. They had on their life jackets and were bobbing around in the pool. She first went over to Aiden and had him take off his life jacket. She then showed him how to float. Danny watched everything that Elizabeth did with Aiden. Jason then swam over to them and did the same thing with Danny.
"I was thinking about getting a swimming instructor over here to help Aiden and Danny swim like their older brothers. I was also wanting for all of us to get some life saving techniques just in case something happens." Elizabeth and the boys thought that was a great idea. Although they would probably have to go to the instructor and not the other way around.
Jason helped Johnny with the grilling. Their housekeeper, Irene was finishing up with the lunch fixings. She had prepared dinner for the family and put it into the refrigerator with instructions on how to re-heat it. She was only working days for now but when the new home was finished she was going to be working every day.
They all sat down and ate their lunch at the picnic table near the pool. The boys were hungry after their swimming and devoured the food like they hadn't eaten in months. Elizabeth laughed when she saw the little ones trying to eat like their older brothers. When they had finished eating, they all went inside and changed. Irene had finished cleaning up and was leaving for the day.
Jason, Johnny and Francis went to the new house construction site and checked on the progress of the house. The owner was selling the construction company and Jason offered to buy it. He then met the crew and found out about the other houses that they were working on. One of the houses was the one Jason's mother had bought. They thought about combining the construction with security. Johnny and Francis were all about security and it would be a good fit for a construction company. The buyers could have it done or elect to leave it out. The security would be built into the home like a panic room which Jason was having installed into his home. There were also cameras installed both inside and outside of the house.
Jason knew that his mother would like to have the same type of security in her place. Most of the buyers would need it too because they were usually very wealthy. Elizabeth's part was to add to the beauty of the homes. She had been taking classes on interior design and also being able to landscape. These are both needed to make sure their clients have everything they want and need. Elizabeth was going over to their new place to see what she could start on. The boys went with their mother to see what was being done with their new home. They got to the site and saw that the foundation was done and the framework was done so the outside was looking good. The roof was on and when you walked in you could tell what the rooms were going to be. Elizabeth decided that she was going to film the rooms and then she would begin figuring out what she wanted done with each room. The boys stayed with their mom and made sure to be real careful.
Jason was very excited about everything going on there and had checked on his mother's property. They were hoping that they would be in sooner than Christmas. They were hoping by Thanksgiving. His mother was going to stay with them till her home was finished. It was a bit smaller because it was just for her. She would probably be in it by the first of the year.
The next couple of weeks were spent on taking care of the boys and making sure they were having a good summer and working on the house. There were five projects going on with the construction company and Jason purchased a great area and was going to start a new home development. The money that he had while working with Sonny was very profitable plus the money he had as a Quartermaine. He received his trusts from his father and his grandparents. The only thing that he wished he didn't have was the shares that went to his sister and brother. He would rather had them in his life than the money, especially Emily. His memories had started coming back a bit at a time and it hurt to remember his losses.
Elizabeth and Cam loved telling Jason stories about Emily. He loved hearing them but he couldn't talk about the day she had died. It was still too hard for him. He loved his sister and she loved him. He told Elizabeth if they ever had a girl that he wanted her named Emily Lila Morgan. Elizabeth agreed that naming their daughter after her best friend and his grandmother would be a great tribute. They both wished that she hadn't died. Every once in a while Jake would see their parents especially his mother have this look on her face that broke his heart.
"Mom, I wonder why when you talk about Emily that you get such a sad look on your face. I heard that she died but I wonder if what happened to dad and me happened to her. Do you have any pictures that I can see?" Elizabeth went and got out one of her photo albums when she was younger. They looked at the pictures of Emily, Nik, Lucky and his mother. He looked at them and studied them real hard. Then her mother took out the photo albums of when Cameron was little and there were more pictures of when Emily was older. That was when Jake got this look on his face.
"I have seen Emily. She always seemed sad and there was another person there too. She was a bit younger than Emily and they were both from the States. Nik's grandmother had put them away because they tried to leave several times. She got mad and told them if they tried to escape again that they would hurt their families. I think that we need to go back. If you need me to stay here with the boys, then I will but I know where they hid them. Spencer doesn't know because his great grandmother knows he would tell his dad. Nik loves her but what about Aunt Sarah."
Elizabeth told him to wait there while she called his father. "We need to talk. Can you come home now? It is very important." Jason hung up the phone and was at the home ten minutes later.
"I think I broke every speed limit on the way home. Is everything all right? What's going on?" Jason caught his breath and the look on Elizabeth's face almost took his away.
"I think that Helena may be holding Emily and Georgie on Nik's island. Jake was wondering why I was so sad and I told him about your sister. He saw her picture and he believes that she is being held there underground and with another younger woman who I believe is Georgie. The problem is if it's true my sister may be hurt but we will get Emily back. I think we need to go back to the island." Jason looked at his wife and knew that she truly believed that Emily might be alive. He called Nik up once again for his help.
"Nik, Jake thinks he knows where they are being held and it is not the same place as where Robin was at but further towards the cliffs. I know it's a risk to go back there again but if my sister and Georgie are still alive, we have to bring them home. I am on my way to the airport with Jake. We will meet you in Port Charles, please tell me that you believe me and that you will take us?"
"Jason, I have been on your side since we got Jake and then Robin. If my grandmother had Emily, then you know I will do anything to get her back. Call me when you land I will be at the airport to take you and Jake to the island. Thank you for this." Nik hung up the phone and was afraid to tell Sarah what was going on because he had strong feelings for Sarah but he never stopped loving Emily.
"Sarah, I just got news from your sister that Jake thinks that Emily is still alive and is being held on my island in Greece. I need you to stay here with Spencer while I go with Jason and Jake to see if she and Georgie Jones are there. I want you to know that I love you but I am not sure about what's going to happen if Emily is really alive." Sarah knew that he still loved Emily and that she wouldn't stand in their way if she was alive.
Jason and Jake caught the first plane to Port Charles after getting off the phone with Nik. Elizabeth stayed back with Cam, Aiden and Danny. Elizabeth could see in Cam's eyes that he wished that he could have a little excitement too in his life but knew that Jake was only doing this because he knew how important it was for his mother and father.
When Jason landed in Port Charles, he and Jake went straight to the airstrip where Nik was waiting for them. They were on their way to find Emily and Georgie. Hopefully they were going to get their happy ending and would bring back Emily for her family and Georgie for her family.
The next morning they arrived on the island. They met with a couple of the security guards that Nik had hired. He knew that his grandmother still had help on the island so he had to have his own team to help them find the two women. Jake showed them the opening to the tunnels where the women were being held.
"Dad, I think down this hallway is where Emily is at. I think that they are holding Georgie in a room a couple of hallways over." They rushed over to Emily's room first and had the guards open it up. Emily was there but she was in bad shape. They had not been feeding her regularly and there was not much interaction so she was slowly losing touch with reality. She saw her brother but didn't know him and looked at Nik but was shocked that he had aged so much. She started cowering because she was afraid of them. When she saw Jake she started to come around a little more. She knew Jake because he would sneak down to see her and Georgie from time to time.
"Jake, I heard you left to be with your parents. I am so glad that you are back. I have missed you so much." Jason and Nik knew that Georgie would be in bad shape too so Jason went with the guards to get her.
Jason went into the cell that Georgie was being held in and the shock of seeing her made he want to kill Helena. She was in worse shape than Emily was. She looked so scared and the guards could tell that the other guards had taken advantage of her from time to time.
They got the women out as quickly as possible and headed to Port Charles. Jason called Elizabeth and told her to take the boys and fly them to Port Charles as quickly as possible. They found Emily and Georgie but they were going to need a lot of love and help to make them whole again.
Elizabeth called Monica to tell her about their news. Monica went to the airport and met her daughter-in-law and grandsons at the airport. She was so happy to see them but she was a little scared to see how bad off Emily was and also Georgie. Monica had called Felecia to tell her about Georgie and to meet them at the airstrip later that night.
Luckily, no one heard the news about Emily or Georgie because there would be a big scene going on at the little airport and that was the last things that the two women needed. Robin was called to help them out because she knew how they were being treated. The plane landed and Jason and Jake came off first. Then Georgie followed behind them. Emily was being carried off by Nik. When Georgie saw her mother and Mac she about passed out. So much had happened to her and she was gone for so long that she almost forgot what her mother looked like but she would always remember Mac.
"We have come to get you but we need to take you to General Hospital to get you checked out. We have mourned you for so long. Your sister even had a baby named after you. She would be here but we didn't want to overwhelm you. We love you so much. Come with us and we will get you home." Mac, Felecia and Georgie took off to the hospital.
Emily looked at her best friend and her mother. She was still in shock from everything that happened that day. She realized that Jason was her brother when he told her about getting run over and having plastic surgery. He then told her about his missing memories but some were coming back and the rescue for Jake and then Robin.
"Jake, I hear that you remembered seeing me and Georgie and when you saw pictures of me in your mom's photo album you told your parents that I was been held captive. I am so proud of you. I am also so grateful for your heroics. I owe you my life." Jake went over to Emily and said that he was happy that his dad and Uncle Nik could save her like they saved him.
"Nik, I can't believe how old you got. Did Spencer do that to you? Or did missing me do that?" Nik went over and hugged Emily. He then laid a kiss on her that she would not forget. They all headed to the hospital too so that Emily could also get checked out.
Mac called Maxie and told her that he had a surprise for her at General Hospital. Maxie told him that she and Nathan would be right there. Nathan got them to the hospital in record time. When Maxie walked into the hospital and saw that her little sister was still alive she almost passed out in her boyfriend's arms.
Maxie ran to her sister and gave her a big hug. She started to cry and soon everyone there was crying too. Patrick came around the corner with Robin and when they saw Georgie, they were shocked too. I guess you have been on the island too. "Helena needs to die. She has taken so many people away from their loved ones and nothing happens to her. She keeps coming back like a bad penny." Just then Emily and her entourage show up. There is total chaos in the nurses' station and word gets out about two more miracles. Once everyone goes to where they need to go, the doctors show up to take care of their patients. The women are given a clean bill of health and are released. The doctors did tell Emily and Georgie if they want to talk to someone about their ordeal that Dr. Kevin Collins would be the best person to see.
Emily goes home with her mother while Georgie goes home with her family. Jason, Elizabeth and their sons also head to the Quartermaine Estate. Nik heads home to tell Sarah and Spencer about Emily. He still doesn't know what to do because everyone is still in shock about Emily being alive.
