Chapter
10 - Getting Kristina Back
A
little while later Cameron, Jax, Sonny, Alexis, Taggert and officers
Smith and Nielsen were in the livingroom awaiting Faith Roscoe's
call or more precisely her demands. Suddenly the phone rang, and
Sonny answered it saying
Sonny:
"Corinthos!"
Caller:
"Are you missing someone?" The caller spitefully asked.
Sonny:
"Hello Faith - where's my daughter?" He asked not in the
mood for any of her games, as Alexis looked on with frightened eyes.
Faith:
"With me, but it depends on your next move if she stays here
or not! Ned is really keen on keeping her here but I'm just not
the mothering type - like Alexis is!"
Sonny: "Then how about you return her like a normal
human being?"
Faith:
"You ordered my husband killed - what part of that is being
a normal human being?"
Sonny:
"You can't compare a womanizer like Roscoe with an innocent
child like Kristina - try showing a sensitive side Faith!"
Faith:
"Why? Because you need to prove yourself to Kristina's mother?"
Sonny:
"What do you want?"
Faith:
"US$ 5.000.000 - I think that's more than enough in exchange
for that little kid!"
Sonny:
"And Ashton?"
Faith:
"Let me worry about him - I also want a guarantee that Johnny,
Max or whoever you got doing your dirty work for you doesn't come
after Ned or me."
Sonny:
"You've got my word
" He replied lying through his
teeth.
Faith:
"I need the money to start over somewhere else - Port Charles
just ain't enough for me - but you should be happy about that, huh?"
Sonny:
"Where and when's the exchange?"
Faith:
"Aren't we busy?" She asked sarcastically.
Sonny:
"CUT THE CRAP FAITH!! When and where?"
Faith:
"Outside "Kelly's" in exactly 2 hours, got it?"
Sonny:
"Yep
"
Faith:
"There's something else - I want Alexis to deliver the money!"
Sonny:
"Forget it! I'm not putting her through it!"
Faith:
"According to Ned you've never considered her feelings - no
Alexis - no Kristina
" Suddenly the phone went dead, and
Taggert signaled negatively with head meaning that they weren't
able to trace the call.
Alexis: "What did she say? Sonny?" She asked walking
closer to him.
Sonny:
"She wants
She wants you to deliver the money."
Jax:
"That's not going to happen Corinthos! So just call up your
little 'mob friend' and tell her that it's not going to happen!"
He exclaimed placing his hands on Alexis' shoulders.
Sonny:
"JAX! I don't like this anymore than you do but it's the only
way - she said that if Alexis didn't come with the money, and only
Alexis - we'd never see Kristina again."
Alexis:
"I'll do it!" She exclaimed turning to Jax with pleading
eyes asking him to drop his hatred towards Sonny.
Cameron:
"Taggert? Can you guarantee Alexis' safety?"
Taggert:
"I can get her into a bulletproof vest and place a bug on her
but that's just about it - for once I do agree with Sonny - if these
are Faith's demands then we'd better follow them to the letter,
OK?"
Jax:
"All right - just be careful!" He replied kissing Alexis
on her forehead.
Alexis:
"I will! Let's get started!" She replied following Taggert
to where Smith and Nielsen were sitting where she got dressed in
a bulletproof vest, and was told what to do, and what not to do
when she came face to face with Faith Roscoe.
Jax:
"If Alexis and Kristina don't make it back all right then I
promise to God that you'll pay just like you should have for what
you did to Kristina!"
Sonny:
"You seem to have a short-term memory Candy boy; Alcazar killed
Kristina - not me!"
Jax:
"You just keep on telling yourself that Sonny - if it weren't
for you Alcazar would've never come to Port Charles but because
of you he did, and he almost killed both Alexis and Kristina!"
Cameron:
"Just cool it - the both of you! All this hatred being thrown
back and forth isn't helping anyone - least of all Kristina."
Jax:
"You're absolutely right Cameron - he's not worth it!"
He exclaimed walking away.
Alexis
was waiting outside "Kelly's" wearing the bulletproof
vest, and the listening device Taggert had placed on her.
Taggert:
"Just try and stay calm Alexis
"
Alexis:
"Yeah right!" She exclaimed feeling a chill, as she spotted
Ned, Faith, Kristina, and who she imagined being Lenny Bromovitz
approach her.
Faith:
"We meet again Ms. Davis!" She smiled.
Alexis:
"Forgive me if I'm not radiant!"
Faith:
"The money!" She exclaimed being impatient.
Alexis:
"I want to see my daughter first!" She exclaimed before
Faith snapped her fingers, and Ned showed Kristina's sleeping face
in a bassinet.
Faith:
"The money!"
Alexis:
"How can you be so cold Ned? Did my sister really mean that
little to you?"
Ned:
"I loved your sister!"
Alexis:
"And this is how you show it? By kidnapping her namesake? You
disgust me Ned, and not only that I actually feel bad for Brook
Lynn for having you as a father!" She exploded in rage, as
she threw the bag at Faith, as Lenny Bromovitz took Kristina, and
handed her over to her mother.
Ned:
"If only you had listened to me you could have saved that child
from Sonny's world!" He exclaimed waking up Kristina.
Alexis:
"Don't you mean your world? Hey sweetheart
I missed you
so much!" She exclaimed cooingly, as she picked up Kristina,
and rubbed her back wanting to make her feel safe.
Ned:
"If you thought this was bad then just wait until bigger people
than Faith start making trouble for Sonny - they might even kidnap
both of you the next time!"
Alexis:
"Well
It won't be you!"
Ned:
"Why do you say that?"
Taggert:
"Because everything's on tape Ashton - have you said everything
you needed to say Ms. Davis?" Alexis simply nodded, as Taggert
read Lenny, Faith and Ned their rights and led them away, as Sonny
joined Alexis in welcoming their daughter back in their arms.
A
few hours later Sonny and Alexis had bathed Kristina and put her
to bed. They were gazing upon their angel, who slept peacefully,
as Sonny had his arms entwined around Alexis' waist.
"Angel
of Mine" performed by Eternal
When
I first saw ya, I already knew
There was something inside of you
Something I thought I'd never find
Angel of mine
I
look at you, looking at me
Now I know why they say the best things are free
Gonna love you till the end of time
Angel of mine
Chorus:
What
you mean to me you'll never know
Deep inside I need to show
You came into my life sent from above
Better than a dream, such a perfect love
And I'll adore you till the end of time
Angel of mine
Nothing
means more to me than all we share
No one in this whole world can ever compare
Last night awake your move is still on my mind
Angel, angel of mine
(Chorus)
I
never knew I could feel each moment, as if it were new
Every breath I take, or vow that I make
I wanna share it with you
When
I first saw ya I already knew
There was something inside of you
Something I thought I'd never find
Angel of mine
You
came into my life, sent from above
Better than a dream of such perfect love
And I'll adore you till the end of time
Angel of mine
What
you mean to me you'll never know
Deep inside, I need to show
I look at you, looking at me
Now I know why they say the best things are free
Gonna love you till the end of time
Angel of mine
(Eternal
- The Best)
