ALEXIS READIES HERESLF AS A RANSOM!

Alexis reread the letter from Jeremy Van Dorn, she still could not quite get her head around the idea of releasing herself into his clutches. But as a mother she knew the child's life could be at stake. One thing was certain, a sacrifice would have to be made and she was it! Smoking the latest in a stimulative chain of cigarettes, Alexis stood looking over the balcony of her penthouse. The night sky littered with stars, the street below busy, but not enough to disturb her thoughts. She thought of the child alone, distanced from his mother, the woman she hated. However no matter how much Sable incensed   
her, the child had to return to her. It was the boys father who was the catalyst for her willingness to substitute herself for Dex Jr's life. She had truly loved the man she could never forget, whom she could never replace. She felt fully certain that Dex would have made the same sacrifice, she had to do it for him. 
"Alexis! How are you holding up?"
The voice from behind startled her, yet a feeling of security enveloped her, she knew who had spoken, the man who echoed the other man she loved.
"Frank! I am doing fine.. Considering the circumstances!"
Alexis followed him into the penthouse, the wind had risen, there was a chill in the air, the cool breeze caressing her neck.
"That man is insane! What are we going to do? Even though we must secure the child's release.. We must protect you!"
Alexis touched his arm, as she passed him to go and pour a couple of drinks for both of them. 
"Frank! I must do what that monster asks! We can't let that little boy suffer any longer. The child must be terrified."
Alexis poured two Brandies, handing a generous glass to Frank.
"We will have to devise a plan. I have considerable training, as regards to kidnappings and antitrust activity. This operation must secure your safety, plus the capture if not the termination of Mr Van Dorn."
Alexis lifted her glass to toast his words, she was certain that Jeremy Van Dorn was almost close to the depths of hell...
" Believe me Frank, nothing would satisfy me more! If you supply the weapon, I shall relish the act of total extermination of dear sick Jeremy!"

FALLON IS FLUFFED UP FOR RECOVERY!

    Fallon Colby sat up in bed, she felt almost alive, much more than she had only hours earlier. She lay back, thanking God for her survival, she felt truly lucky, longing to be back in Jeff's arms again. She closed her eyes, but only for a second, a visitor had entered the room.
"  How is my favourite sister?"
Fallon opened her eyes again, a smiling Steven standing over her. She had not seen him in a few weeks, it wonderful to see his face again. 
"Steven! Here I am on my back again! I have a fondness for beds.. especially hospital beds!"
They both laughed, Steven was glad to see she still had that wicked streak of humour. But then she had always been risque, always outspoken, saying all the things a young society lady should not think, let alone announce to the world! Fallon recalled her mothers first words to her, on her return to Denver from Acapulco for the Ted Dinard murder trial.
'Fallon! I see your father had your teeth fixed.. If not your tongue!"
She smiled as she recalled that moment. Steven wondered what the smile concealed..
"I read about Van Dorn's escape, I never imagined how far all this had progressed. Why would he want to shoot you?"
Steven took her hand..
"Mother reckons he is playing some sort of game, or was that Daddy? I overheard them speak in the distance! How is Bart and Danny? I wonder where mother is?"
Steven could tell she had not fully regained her senses, she was beginning to wander from one thing to another.
"I am fine as you can see! We are both busy.. Bart is doing well and Danny is growing taller every day, or so it seems. They both send their love."
Fallon could tell there was something he was not telling her, but she was sure she would find out in time.

SABLE WAITS FOR NEWS OF HER SON!

  Sable Colby sat and thought about the phone call, she could hardly believe the ransom demand. Off all the people in the world, she had to depend on to secure her son's safe return and it turned out to be Alexis. It it was not so serious a situation, she would laugh at the absurdity of the situation. She planned to go and see Alexis, find out what she intended to do. Even though Alexis was a bitch, Sable was sure when it came to a child's life, Alexis was the eternal earth mother. She was certain Alexis would feel the same about Dex's son. At this moment she felt so helpless, but yet secure in the knowledge that she had good friends in Blake and Krystle. They had invited her to stay at the mansion, she gladly accepted. Sable sighed, just as she was getting her life back in some order and this had to happen. She prayed that her son would be back with her soon. Her publishers had given her a deadline date on which she had to submit the final draft of her book. They even had the release date on the schedules, but at this time the only release that concerned her was that of her son. 

BLAKE CONSIDERS THE SITUATION!

Blake Carrington sat and pondered the current situation, he often wondered if life could ever be normal within his family. He was glad Sable had accepted his offer to stay, Krystle was delighted to have her around. He prayed that her son would come through his ordeal unscathed. He then thought of Alexis, he knew the impossible dilemma she faced. Alexis was tough when it came to business, but when it came to motherhood he knew she could do no wrong. He once loved the young Alexis Morell, he often wondered whatever happened between them. Denver Carrington was a prime candidate for their marriage problems, he thought so much of his company, with no amount of time was enough to secure it's up most success. Even though she was no saint, he could not really blame her for seeking the attention of another man, as she did with Roger Grimes. Although he had not killed Grimes, he was sure he could have if he had been pushed to it. He could not bear to have something or someone taken from him, in this case Alexis, without putting up a fight. Blake did not wish to see her get hurt, but he was certain he wanted the boy returned unharmed. He prayed that both would survive the wrath of Jeremy Van Dorn.

STEVEN HAS SOMETHING TO GET OFF HIS CHEST!

In a fleeting moment of happiness, Alexis sat next to her son, she was so glad to see Steven, who had rushed over on hearing about the ransom demand.
"Steven Darling! It's so good to see you. How is my little grandson?"
Steven was desperate to share his worries with someone close, even though he was fully aware of the worries his mother had firmly on her mind. 
"Danny is doing well. He has started a new school, making new friends. He send his love!"
Steven paused, looking at his mother who anticipated further revelations.
" That is wonderful Darling! How is Bart? Please tell me the truth Steven!"
Alexis knew her son as only a mother could, she knew he had something he longed to tell her.
"Bart is well! All is well in our relationship, you need not worry on that front. Look mother! There is a problem in our lives. It's to do with Danny!"
Alexis was surprised, more than curious now and to the reasons for the upheaval..
"Danny! Why on earth would there be a problem with my grandson?"
Steven left his seat on the sofa next to her, he needed some fresh air, standing by the open patio door, he looked out into the night.
"It 's Sammy Jo! She wants Danny to go and live with her. It is the same old story, she has given up modelling again and wants a career in motherhood!"
Steven felt so angry at this latest intrusion in his life, from his ex-wife.
"That little tramp! Who the hell does she think she is.Choosing to enter and exit Danny's life, when the whim engulfs her. She is an unfit mother and always has been!"
Alexis always knew that sooner or later, Sammy Jo would pull this stunt again as she had done before. One thing was certain, when  Van Dorn's worthless life was eventually snubbed out, she would see that Sammy Jo would be deemed unfit a mother, that she would not even get an assignment modelling maternity clothes!
"Mother! Don't worry about her, she wont get her hands on my son. I will kill her first!"
Steven ran his fingers through his hair, whilst Alexis looked shocked at his outburst. The phone rang to inform her that a visitor was on her way up, in the form of her favourite cousin, Sybil!Steven kissed his mother and bade her farewell, exchanging greetings with Sable Colby in passing, as they met on entering and exiting the elevator.

ALEXIS PLANS TO GO IN.. WITH GUNS SMOKING!

"Sybil! I have been expecting a visit from you.. Sooner or later!"
Alexis stood up, a fresh cigarette lit to face her rival.
"Alexis! I know we both have a bottomless pit of loathing for one another. But I think under the circumstances we should try and put our differences aside."
They both sat down to discuss the dilemma that had somehow engulfed both of them.
" Look Sybil! I am certain that you think of me as The Bitch to end all bitches. I myself think perhaps you deserve that title! However I would do anything for my son as I am sure you would too."
Sable nodded her agreement, she then knew what Alexis's intentions were as to Van Dorn's demands.
"Alexis! I know how much your children mean to you. I am so grateful to you for my son's life!"
Alexis could see the pain and determination in Sable's eyes.
"I would do anything for that little boy. I truly loved his father. I owe it to him to protect his son. I know how ruthless Jeremy Van Dorn is. To think I allowed that animal to touch me."
Alexis paused, she could say so much about the dreaded Jeremy, but that was not what Sable wanted to hear, when her son was in his grasp.
"Alexis I know exactly how evil that man is! I made the same mistake of allowing him into my bed. Jeremy had business dealings with Jason. I fell for his rugged good looks. We had a brief affair, he then tried to blackmail me, he wanted insider information. I wont go into the details now, but believe me I am grateful to you Alexis!"
Alexis was certain that at that moment Sable was sincere. Jeremy had to be stopped, she had the power to do so, even though she faced an uncertain future, she vowed she would fight him all the way. Win or lose, she would make certain , Van Dorn would not survive!!!
