New Jersey, Safe House, 2003
Before he can hunt her down his phone rings again and it is Sonny. " Jason, we found where Faith and Ric are and we are going to move tonight." Jason thinks perfect fucking timing. " Give me the location and I will meet the men there," Jason says. " Ryan will send you the details and Bernie is still working on Lorenzo in case we cannot capture Ric and Faith alive." Jason says " Understood." He hangs up and he wishes he had more time. He picks up the noteback to leave a note and he sees the middle names she has written down so far and will have to think about what first names go with those. He leaves the note and heads out. " Johnny, they found Faith and Ric and the location is in Miami. Keep me updated on Elizabeth and I do not know how long I will be gone but I will alert you when I am done." Johnny nods and Jason leaves not knowing that was the last time he would see for years to come. Johnny messages Francis and tells him they have a Code Red and he needs to move his ass. They have some planning to do.
Two months later
After he left the safehouse everything was in chaos. They found Ric and Faith and killed all her men and she was mortally wounded. Ric was severely injured and they were able to locate Lorezno and eliminate him which created a power vacuum that they prepared for. What he was not prepared for is that Elizabeth escaped and disappeared and Courtney lost the baby because she was recklessly driving. They divorced and he has been searching endlessly for her. Steven has not heard from her and neither has Emily. Thankfully Emily is in remission and made a full recovery when she gave a serum that saved her from death's door at the last minute. He moved to a secure house with a big backyard and he decided to give them one room for now until they were a little older because he knew one day she would be back with their kids and he could prove to her that they belonged together as a family. The guards said that Johnny and Francis needed to be buzzed in because they found a lead on Elizabeth. He lets them and is not prepared for what he sees. " Hey boss, I think we found three of the people you have been looking for and she left them with a note." Jason is in awe and lets them in. " Follow me and I will show you to their room. He grabs one of his sons as Johnny and Francis follow him. " Hey there little guy I am your Daddy it is nice to meet you." Jason says " Put them in their cribs for now." Jason is so confused. " How did you two come across my children?" Francis says " We were following up a lead on her and when we went to investigate at this abandoned house. They were there well-dressed and nourished. A note was left addressed to you. " I am going to take them to the hospital because they seem perfectly healthy but they should not have been born until the end of the year."
Jason calls his mother " Hey Monica Can you and Alan meet me at the hospital if you are not already there and get me the best Pediatrician they have? I will explain everything when I get there." She agrees and says " I want men sent to the house where you found them and I want the camera pulled up from that area because there is no way Elizabeth would leave our children in some abandoned place and leave them willingly. I want her found now." Jason calls Emily and says " Hey I need to come over, it is an emergency." Emily says " I am at home but I can be there in less than ten minutes." Jason says " Thanks see ya soon." He does not want to get his hopes up but he knows in his heart these are their children. That is her handwriting and he will wait to read until he knows the babies are alright. " Hey princess it is okay Daddy is here and you look just like your mommy with her beautiful blue eyes and dark hair. I am going to keep all the boys away from you and I am going to find your mommy so she can tell you no because I am not going to be able to do it. When I would tell your mommy no she would convince me how wrong I was but it would never take much for her to convince me.
Emily makes it and looks confused. " You see Princess, your aunt Emily is here and you are going to love her because your mommy and daddy love her. She is Mommy's best friend." Emily says " Hello there beautiful your mommy and daddy have a whole lot of explaining to do." Jason says " I need your help taking them to get checked out at the hospital and I will explain what I know on the way."
General Hospital, July 2003
" Hello, Jason your mother says you need to speak with us and a Pediatrician, oh my who they are?" Jason says " These are my sons and daughter with Elizabeth and something happened to her and we need to make sure they are okay. I have people looking for her." Alan is awestruck and says " Follow me." Monica says " Oh my who are they?" Emily answers " These are your grandchildren." Monica gasps " Oh my they are beautiful." Jason says " I need to check to make sure they are okay, something happened to their mother and I just want to make sure they are okay." Emily says " Before you ask Mom Elizabeth is their mother and she is still missing." Alan says " I hope she is okay but let's get them checked out. Do they have names yet?" Jason says " We agreed I would give them their first name and she would give them their middle names. So for now my daughter's name is Lillian Morgan, My blonde son is going to be Jacob and my brunette son is going to be Artemis." Emily says "Naming one after grandmother what a suck and naming one after the bar you and his mother officially became friends. I am curious about the Artemis one" Jason says " It starts with an A and I wanted to honor Alan in some way because Elizabeth loved how close the moon and the stars were after a ride and his name means moon." Monica says " They are lovely names that are full of meaning. I am sure when they meet Lila she will be thrilled.
The next day, Quartermaine Mansion
Jason admits he was a coward and has not read the letter yet. He and Emily are taking them to meet his grandmother. They received a clean bill of health but no sign of their mother. He is worried and hardly slept last night but he will never give up on her for everyone's sake. " Hello Grandmother, I have some people I would love for you to meet." Lila says " Hello my dear you have brought guests. Who are these lovely little ones?" He picks up Lillian and hands her to Lila " This Is Lillian Morgan and she is mine and Elizabeth's daughter." Lila says " Hello my darling, it seems your father named you after me and you are so beautiful just like your mother." As she talks to her Jason and Emily introduce his sons. " This one is Jacob and the only one Emily is holding is Artemis." Lila looks at Jacob " Oh my he has your eyes my dear and Artemis's eyes look as though they are going to be Dark blue almost gray. Hello all of my darlings it is a pleasure to meet you. Welcome to the family." Of course, Edward just had to come in. Damn it he could have sworn he was supposed to be on a longer business call. " I hear Congratulations are in order for my boy and I heard that lovely Elizabeth is their mother. I always liked her and it does not hurt that she comes from such a prestigious and founding family." Jason thinks he could have said worse.
Jason will be nice because his grandmother is here. " Edward, I would like for you to meet Jacob. Would you like to hold him?" Edward says " Of course my dear boy. Hello Jacob, this is your great-grandfather speaking. Oh my word, you have my Lila's eyes. You and your siblings are going to change the world and your great-grandfather will help you do it." Emily says " Grandfather they are not even walking yet let's not plot a corporate takeover." They laughed and exchanged babies not knowing just how true Edward's words would ring one day.
