A/N: Thanks for the reviews. I was hoping you would get that Drew shooting 'Jason' was a comedic moment as well as a payoff moment. I don't feel like we have one of those in the last year. I have to say even though some of the writing was bad the year before last was an amazing year for Billy Miller and Kelly Monaco. They were both robbed of Emmy's. It should have been both of their years to win.

Chapter 8

Sam was stunned by what he had just told her. "How do you know for sure?" Sam asked not knowing what else she could do for him but continue holding his hand while listening to him.

"Kim and I were never lovers," Drew told her. He was looking at their joined hands trying to pull more of the memories forward. "She was actually a friend. We knew each other much longer than she has said. She told me about a guy she had been seeing that at first she was excited about. Then she found out he worked for his father and his father was a criminal. I didn't get any other details other than they had a big fight about it and they separated."

"She was so scared when she found out she was pregnant," he continued. "She asked if she could say I was the father in case he ever came around her again and I didn't have a problem with it. I had intended to keep in touch with her and be there for both of them but when the CIA comes recruiting you have to cut a lot of the ties you have with people. When I told her that the government had some classifieds missions they wanted me involved in and it would be safer if we didn't contact each other until it was over she agreed."

"Why did she lie to me and to Oscar?" Drew asked bewildered.

"I wouldn't even be able to guess what she was thinking." Sam said as she came around the conference table and sat in his lap and held him close.

"It's like loosing Jake and Danny all over again." He said with anguish. "I know that I am still in Jake and Danny's lives because I am their uncle but it feels the same."

"I'm so sorry," Sam said as she continued to hug him close. "Did these memories just come to you? I didn't think you were this far in the procedures to get your memories back of that time period."

Drew looked at her guiltily, "I may have done something rash."

"Well," they both jerked their heads round to look up at the screen. "You not only did something rash but dangerous and incredibly stupid! Do you care to let your wife know what you did Drew?"

Drew just looked from Ellie to Sam and back again then settled his vision on Ellie.

"Do you have Greta spying on me?" Questioned Drew sheepishly.

"You were lucky she happened to go back to the office that night," Ellie stated with anger. "She found you passed out and called after she found the files on your computer just open for anyone to see if they walked in."

"I know it wasn't very smart." Drew said. "It seemed like a good idea at the time."

"Drew," Sam said demandingly. "What did you do?"

"Your husband," Ellie answered for him. "Preformed seven procedures in a row, all in one night and while he was by himself. You were supposed to have someone there with you."

"Why would you take such a risk?" Sam felt a little devastated that he would take such a risk with his life. She took his face in her hands and looked him in the eyes before continuing. "We talked about you doing these memory retrievals in the safest way possible. I thought you were done risking your life and your memories of the past five years."

He looked at Ellie on the screen before answering. He looked back at Sam still sitting in his lap. He saw the hurt in her eyes. "Jonah died and it brought out memories of baby Lila. Those were not my memories and I wanted to get them out of my head or at least make the memories more vague than they felt. I wanted to get as many of the Jason memories out of my head as I could. I just couldn't stand it anymore."

"You are lucky that Greta called me and she stayed with you most of the night and kept a check on your vitals to make sure you didn't need to be rushed to the hospital."

"Now, Drew Cain," Ellie admonished. "You will not do any other procedures until you have another brain scan next week. Then after I look at the results and only then can you do another one. Am I going to have to send the batches to Andre to administer when it is time or can you be trusted to at least have Sam with you and you wait a few days between treatments?"

Before Drew could answer her Sam spoke up, "Send them to me Ellie and I will make sure he follows your protocols."

"That sounds better," Ellie agreed. "Drew you are lucky we are several states away from each other and that I am a doctor or I would be tempted to hurt you. Now on to the original reason for this call. I have already briefed everyone here on the results and you can do the same after this call.

"Well," Ellie went on, "'Jason' is not the Jason Morgan that was in a car accident. He has none of the frontal lobe damage that should be there."

They were both very quiet as they stared at each other. It wasn't like it was something they weren't expecting but to hear it confirmed was still shocking.

"How much longer before the DNA testing will be complete?" Sam asked her. She had to know who this man really was as soon as possible. She didn't know how it would look to everyone if she all of the sudden didn't want him to spend any time with Danny. She was thankful that Danny hadn't wanted to go to his place to visit with him.

"Unfortunately," Ellie said with regret. "It is still possibly another two weeks out. The machine makes it much faster but it still takes a long time. I will get with Devin to get a more definite time frame. I assume you still want to continue with these tests even though I am almost 100% positive that he is not Jason Morgan."

"Another thing that might help identify him," Ellie continued. "I also had the tech at GH do a full body scan to see if there were any identifying injuries. At some point this man had a broken back. He would have been in rehab for many years to recover and be able to walk again."

"Please go ahead with the tests. And thanks for the update Ellie." Drew said. "And for the lecture. I needed it."

The screen went blank and they realized they had that whole conversation with Sam sitting in Drew's lap.

"We have some decisions to make." Drew said. "I just don't know what to do."

"I don't think we need to rush into anything." Sam told him as she tightened her hold on him. "Let's take a close look at the surveillance at P6's place and see if there has been any meetings between him and Peter."

"P6?" Drew questioned.

"Well what else should we call him since we don't know who he is." Sam said matter of fact as she shrugged her shoulder.

They were getting up from the office chair when Curtis rushed into the room. "You two have to see this."

They watched him put a flash drive into the monitor and he grabbed the remote to start the recording.

They watched as Carly showed up at P6's penthouse. She looked upset as she pounded on the door. "Jason, I need to talk to you. It's important."

"Are we going to get somewhere with this," Drew sighed, not up for another love fest between Carly and P6.

"My bad," Curtis said as he hit the fast forward button. "We don't even need to watch the whole thing. You will get the picture very soon."

Curtis hit play again and Drew and Sam's mouths dropped open as they saw P6 and Carly having sex on his couch. Then they both put their hands over their eyes to not see anymore.

"Please turn it off," Drew yelled. "I need brain bleach to get that image out of my head."

Sam and Curtis looked at Drew questioningly and they both said, "Brain bleach?"

"I think Casey used to yell that at Chuck and Sarah when he would walk in on them having sex in the supply closet." Drew answered not sure if that is where he heard that phrase.

"How do we tell her that he isn't Jason?" Sam asked. Sam was torn because they had become friendly over the years but she wasn't sure how much of a friend she was especially now.

"Wait," Curtis asked. "You know for sure he isn't Jason?"

"According to Ellie," Drew answered. "And his brain scans, there is no way he is Jason. There are going to be a bunch of people in for a huge surprise. If it wasn't for Monica I would run a front page story about it and let everyone find out that way and I would express a copy of it to Robin."

"She has been pushing me to get back together with him since he got back and she was convinced right away he was her precious Jason." Sam said with frustration. "If I hadn't turned into such a nice person I would let you announce it in the paper."

"Did Felicia and Mac see this?" Sam asked.

"No," Curtis said. "Unfortunately the pleasure was all mine. It was my turn to review the tapes when Carly showed up this morning."

"Unfortunately," Drew began. "I don't think we can say anything until we have the DNA results and I'm not sure they will believe it even then. This is going to be a legal mess not to mention the emotional damage to the kids."

"We have to find out how Peter is involved in this and get rid of this threat before anymore harm can come to our kids." Sam said adamantly. "We can't allow Jake and Danny to get any closer to him. At this point I don't think either of them will be devastated to learn he isn't their father. He hasn't exactly been available to either of them. He has been all about Sonny, Carly and Michael for some reason."

"Oh my gosh!" Sam gasped as something clicked in her brain. "I think I know who P6 is!"

"Don't leave us in suspense." Curtis said with impatience. This case was taking more out of him that he had thought.

"I am basing this on the fact that Ellie said he had a broke back at one point." Sam began. "I think he is A.J."

Drew and Curtis looked at her in disbelief.

"But he died after Sonny shot him." Drew reasoned.

"Yeah I know," Sam replied. "But during our meeting with Beckman, Chuck, Sarah and Casey they mentioned that Chuck had shot and killed Shaw but the Ring had that technology to bring him back. I don't know what the criteria is that would make that an option but it seems to me that A.J. would be a valuable asset to them just because Jason, you and him are brothers. If replacing him with Drew didn't work then they could try with A.J. I just think the biological links would make the procedures work better."

"As Sam and I were discussing when you came in," Drew addressed Curtis. "We need to up the surveillance on P6. I will put in a call to Frisco and see if he can send more WSB agents to take it over completely. It will have to be enough people to provide enough rotation to keep him from seeing anyone twice. I hope they are up to doing what is necessary to get this resolved."

They each went their own way to get started on their regular working day. It was exhilarating but tiring at the same time to burn the candle at both ends. They decided to keep the A.J. theory to themselves until the official DNA tests were back from Ellie.

Drew spent the next week worried about everyone that was close to P6. Even if he was A.J., he wasn't A.J. anymore. He didn't know how to explain any of this to Monica. He had to get those memories back and then maybe he would be able to tell her what happened to Jason. He had to know for himself as well.

At least Frisco and the WSB had taken over the surveillance of P6 because it was getting too much for Drew, Sam and Curtis. They had too many irons in the fire so to speak. He still had to play along with the DA so she wouldn't know he already had his memories. He had warned Sam that she had to distance herself from Sonny and P6 because Dawson had threatened to go after Sam if he didn't give her what she wanted. This had become a delicate balancing act that he wasn't sure how much longer he could hang onto.

He was also finding it difficult not to confront Kim about her lies to him and Oscar. If she had told Drew the truth from the get go he was sure he would have wanted to tell Oscar the truth. Drew didn't think Oscar would react well to all the lies over the years. First not telling him at all about his father then telling him who is father is but it being a lie.

One bright spot in his week was settling on a house with Sam. She was moving in with the kids at the end of the week. The only damper on the whole thing is he wouldn't be able to move in yet. But that would come hopefully soon.

Penthouse

Sam was busy packing boxes when there was a knock on the door. She was in yoga pants with her hair up in a ponytail and was very sweaty. She almost ignored whoever was at the door but relented.

"Oh, Sarah," Sam said in surprise. "What are you doing here?"

Sam motioned for the tall blonde woman to come into the penthouse.

"Sorry to just drop by without calling," Sarah said apologetically. "This is just a quick trip here and then back. I don't like leaving the kids for very long. I wanted to drop the package off."

She held a small package up in the air. Sam assumed it was another batch of Drew's memories.

Sam took the package from her. "Thank you for bringing it. I guess you guys feel it is more secure to hand deliver them."

"Carina was all over Drew when she brought the other package wasn't she?" Sarah guessed by Sam's tone.

"Yes," Sam admitted. "I was so upset I just ran off and didn't run in and confront her and drag her mouth away from my husband."

"Well," Sarah said with a sigh. "You should have. I mean, she is my best friend but that didn't stop her from making a play for Chuck a couple of times. She finally got it in her head that I was serious about Chuck and he was not to ever be a part of the game she liked to play. She always made passes at guys I was interested in. It probably saved me from wasting my time with many of them if I am honest but she can go too far."

"Anyway," Sarah continued. "I also wanted to come and get to know you a little bit. Drew is very important to us not just because he was a part of our team but he was more like family before he disappeared."

"I would like to get to know you as well as the whole team." Sam agreed. "It would be nice to get to know people that knew him before and that would help him know who he was."

"He doesn't seem that different to me." Sarah said. "He was always loyal and a gentleman. We all knew he wouldn't go awol. It just wasn't apart of his value system. We are all just sorry were not able to find him and help him. We made too many enemies over the years and to many times they have escaped and came back to cause us harm. I am tired of catching Shaw and him getting away to cause more problems in our lives especially now that most of us have children."

"Do you want something to drink?" Sam asked. She might as well get hydrated while taking a break from packing.

"Yes," Sarah said. "Some water would be great."

Sarah sat on the brown leather couch and took in the room. There were moving boxes in front of the fireplace and the couch. Sarah made the decision to tell Sam a little about her past, it was a past that they had in common. She was hoping the case would be resolved soon and the Cain's would be able to come to California for a visit. They had children of similar age it would be fun to get the families together.

"Here you go," Sam said as she held out a bottle of water. She sat on the couch next to Sarah.

"Sam," Sarah began, "There is no judgment from me when I bring up your past. I looked you up in our special database. My father raised me and he was also a conman. You and I even share the same birth name. I was also Samantha the first few years of my life. I lost track of all the different aliases I had growing up."

"Why would you look into my past?" Sam asked with shock.

"I don't mean to upset you and I am sure Drew is not going to be happy with either Chuck or myself for looking into you." Sarah admitted. "Drew is like a brother to us and we were curious about you. I want all of us to be a family again when this is over. I have grown tired of the cloak and dagger life we have lead and I want us to be able to go back to just running our cyber security firm."

"Last year," Sam began telling her their similar story. "Before we knew he was Drew, we decided to distance ourselves from certain people in our lives that were routinely in danger and dragged us with them. We wanted our children to be safe. Then a month later our lives were blown apart when this P6 person showed up. Frisco hasn't been able to find out if Andre Maddox knew that P6 wasn't Jason but he knew Drew wasn't Jason. My head starts spinning if I think about it too much. I almost let my guilt for finding happiness with Drew ruin our marriage."

"There were many times in my relationship with Chuck that I pulled back from him because I didn't think I deserved happiness or I believed he deserved better than me." Sarah explained to Sam. "I was extremely unfair to him the first two years we knew each other. I fell in love with him the first moments I spent with him but it took me two years to admit it to myself. You would think we would realize we had wasted enough time and just enjoy each other but we were not done hurting each other. We just never could get on the same page. We let misunderstandings and miscommunications come between us for almost another year."

"So," Sam put in. "It was only after Chuck saved your life from Shaw that you two got your act together?"

"We still had some hiccups in the road," Sarah told her. "Especially when I lost all my memories of our time together. I was told he was the enemy and I almost killed him."

Sam gasped but Sarah continued with the story. "I was beating the crap out of him and he refused to fight back. He just told me he loved me and was telling me things about us. What saved us was I got a memory during the altercation. The man that took my memories away was there and he was about to shoot me and Chuck jumped in front of the gun and saved me. He was wearing a vest but he knew I wasn't."

"Chuck sounds like an amazing man." Sam said. "I think we both got lucky considering how our lives started."

"Yes, we are lucky," Sarah, agreed with her. "I just wanted to tell you our story and maybe give you some hope that everything will turn out alright."

"Things are never going to be the same for some of the people in our lives." Sam admitted. "I don't know how we are going to tell everyone. So many people are going to be hurt. We need to find out what happened to Jason."

"How will you feel if we find Jason is alive somewhere?" Sarah asked. She didn't want Drew to be hurt anymore.

"It has been almost six years." Sam said truthfully. "I can't go backwards even to appease my guilt. I already tried that and it failed miserably."

A/N: Decided to end this here even though it is mostly filler. It was getting a bit long but I wanted to include a conversation between Sam and Sarah. They have a lot in common. They are both kick-ass women that were raised by conmen. They have a lot in their past that they regret. Next chapter we get the DNA results. It has always been my contention that they may have proved that Drew was Drew but they did not prove that P6 was Jason. They matched Drew's fingerprints. They never found Jason's original fingerprints on file.

Hopefully it will not take me more than a week for me to have the next chapter done.
