Luke Spencer and Robert Scorpio set in Luke’s office, spilling over files that they both have on Faison and Helena. After two hours of debating different locations, they decided to compare notes, files, property…especially newly acquired properties that the two evil masterminds had in common. There just had to be something linking Faison and Helena together. Something that would make it easier for Luke and Robert to find and kill the people responsible for tearing their families apart.
Ten hours had passed. Luke rubbed his eyes, fighting to stay awake. The longer he kept his eyes open, the sooner they’d find Helena. Robert scanned the screen once more. His eyes lit up as finally something appeared on the screen.
"What is it?" Luke leaned over his friend’s shoulder.
"A warehouse. Just outside of Port Charles. Helena and Faison’s names are on the lease and look here. Just yesterday, there was a delivery. Mate, we’ve found them," Robert sat back in his chair, for the first time since his arrival in Port Charles, a feeling of complete satisfaction ran through him.
Luke laughed an eager light in his eyes. Finally! Something solid he could work with. "Woo-hoo! Let’s go!" He opened his safe and took out two revolvers. "This ends tonight!"
"Luke wait! First we need to go over our plan," Robert laid a restraining hand on Luke’s arm.
Luke rolled his eyes. "You take Faison. I take Helena. We keep it nice and quiet. That’s the plan."
Robert grinned with a nod. "You got it, mate. Now let’s move out! It’s time Helena and Faison paid for their crimes," He’s the first out the door.
"No need to tell me twice," Luke grabbed the weapons and followed his old friend to the black car waiting for them just outside the club.
It was time to make Port Charles a safe place for the Spencer family once again. Nothing short of death was going to keep Luke away from his goal.

Two days earlier…
Covington, Kentucky
Lucky and Nikolas glanced around the motel room that they had called home for the past month one last time. It was time to move on and quickly. That morning, during his morning jog, Nikolas had thought he saw one of Helena’s men lurking outside one of the parks. Quickly, Nikolas came back to their room and told Lucky what he had seen. Quickly, the boys were packed up and ready to flee for the next town. No words were necessary. They knew that they would never see the room ever again.
"Ready?" Lucky laid a rushed hand on Nikolas’s arms, who silently nodded. He knew that it was time to leave this place. He just felt kind of sad. After all, the room had been home for him. But there would be another home…another life. Both without Helena…both without Emily.
"Let’s go," Nikolas opened the door to come face to face with a gun wielding Andreas.
"Master Nikolas. I’ve found you at last. Madam Cassadine has requested the company of both your brother and yourself. I must insist that you come with me. The private jet is waiting."
Nikolas looked at Lucky as if asking what he was supposed to do. Lucky could only shrug his shoulders, wishing that his father were there. Luke always knew how to get out of sticky situations.
"You really have no choice," Andreas looked at the boys sympathetically. "Even if you made it pass me, Madam would find you eventually. You might as well come now."
Sighing, the boys knew that they were beat. In the throes of defeat, they followed Andreas away from the Motel.
Present day…
Lucky and Nikolas yawned as they awoke from the drug induced sleep they’ve been in for the past two days. They weren’t surprised to find themselves tied and gagged to what looked to be a day bed. Lucky was in his regular clothes, but to Nikolas’s horror, he was dressed in a black robe with black satin pajama bottoms.
"Good morning my lovelies," Helena cooed, entering the room, dressed in a white night gown. "It is wonderful to have you back in my care. I have a special welcome home celebration for each of you. But who should I start with first?" Helena’s eyes gleamed with malicious intent as her gaze fell on Nikolas. "Ah, as the prince, my Nikolas will be first."
Lucky tried to yell, scream, and talk, to Helena through his gag. He tried to undo the ropes, tried to make as much noise as possible to get Helena’s attention away from his brother. But nothing worked. All Lucky could do was set and helplessly watch the witch touch his brother.
