Ric's Office --

Ric picked up the phone and dialed it quickly. "I need an arrest warrant drawn up, now! I don't care what time it is, I need one immediately! Name? Sonny Corinthos Charge? First degree murder .. Yes you heard me right. And I want it on my desk ASAP!" Ric slammed down the phone and turned his attention back on Steele.

"Now, if you excuse me I have an arrest warrant to serve." Ric added as he got up from his desk and directed Steele towards the door.

"Now wait a minute, Mr. Lansing .. this is my case .. I want in on this bust!" Steele reminded Ric if it weren't for him Sonny wouldn't be arrested or charged with the murder of Zander's father.

Ric thought a brief moment, and guessed he'd give Steele the collar, he did do all of the work to get Sonny charged with first degree murder. "Come on, let's go ..." Ric replied as he grabbed onto Steele's jacket and led him out of the office.

The warrant was waiting for Ric when he arrived in the squad room with Steele by his side. He called over a few other officers and explained what he had planned.

Three officers, Ric and Steele walked out of the squad room with the arrest warrant in hand and went to see Mr. Corinthos.

At the cabin --

Darkness still lingering, Zander's cell phone rang. He reached over to the night stand and flipped it open to answer it. "Hello .." he answered still half asleep.

"Zander, little brother, if you want to see a murderer come to justice, I'd suggest you meet me at the PCPD in about an hour." Ric being cryptic didn't leave Zander much choice.

"I'll be right there." Zander replied and flipped close the phone. He slipped from underneath the sheets and quickly got dressed. As he went down stairs he called Marcus to come pick him up, he'd let Emily sleep but he left a note on the table explaining his absence.

It didn't take long before Marcus picked Zander up at the mountain cabin, and they sped away heading back towards town to the PCPD.

At the PCPD -- the squad room

They arrived in record time and Zander walked into the squad room wondering what his brother had been trying to explain to him on the phone. Marcus stood by Zander while he waited and saw that his boss was becoming more and more anxious.

Sonny's Penthouse --

The officers and Ric along with Steele arrived at Sonny's penthouse, the warrant in his jacket pocket. Ric pounded on the door and waited for someone to answer. It was a few minutes before he heard movement towards the door. The door opened, Sonny in his robe and shocked to find Ric standing in the hallway with 3 officers.

"Ric do you know what time it is?" Sonny said as he stepped away from the door and they stepped into the apartment.

"I know what time it is Sonny, and I came on official business." Ric replied and handed Sonny the arrest warrant.

"What is this?!" Sonny asked as he threw the warrant back in Ric's face.

"That is an arrest warrant. You're under arrest for the murder of Frank Smith. You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law, you have the right to an attorney, if you cannot afford one, one will be appointed to you by the state of NY ...." Ric recited as the officers slapped cuffs on Sonny in the middle of his living room.

Carly had heard the commotion and raced down the stairs to see her husband in a pair of handcuffs. "Hey what's going on here?" she shouted as she went to her husband.

"You can meet us at the police station, Carly .. and bring some clothes for your husband." Ric told her as they walked Sonny out of the penthouse and then onto the elevator.

Carly raced back upstairs and grabbed what she could and followed the police cars downtown.

The PCPD - Squad Room

Zander sat waiting for Ric to come back, when he looked up to see Ric and Steele walk into the squad room. Three officers followed and they had Sonny with them in handcuffs.

"Hey what's going on here, Ric?" Ric pulled Zander into an interrogation room for a little privacy to tell him that Sonny was the one who murdered his father.

"What?! Sonny killed my father?!" was heard from inside the interrogation room and soon Zander stormed out from the room, his eyes piercing through Sonny like knives.

"You bastard!" Zander shouted as he pulled back his arm and laid his fist against Sonny's jaw before anyone could stop him.

"Zander! That's enough." Ric said as he grabbed his brother before he did more damage to the suspect. "Take him into the interrogation room, please." Ric instructed the officers in what to do with Sonny.

"Would you calm down!" Ric said to Zander as he saw Zander's fists were clenched and the anger just boiled inside of him.

"Calm? You want me to be calm? That son of a bitch killed my father and you want me to be calm?! After 15 years, I found out the man who took my father from me was under my nose the entire time!" Zander barked back.

Ric understood Zander's rage and didn't blame him one bit for feeling what he felt. "Just let me do my job, I want these charges to stick!" Ric said before he headed into the interrogation room to question his murder suspect.

Zander watched from the squad room as his brother questioned Sonny about his father's murder. He began to pace the floor and wringing his hands together in anticipation of Ric emerging and telling him the case was finally closed that Sonny was going away for a very long time. At this moment the business didn't matter, this was personal and Sonny was going to pay dearly for what he had done.

Tempers flared and loud voices could be heard from the interrogation room, as Zander couldn't tear himself away from observing what was going on inside. Suddenly the door to the room flew open and Ric emerged, his rage could been seen to those in the squad room.

Zander approached him with anticipation to know what happened in there. "So, Ric, tell me he's not getting out of this, tell me you can make this stick!" Ric turned to his brother wishing he could tell him what he wanted to hear, knowing that they would need Zander's testimony to put Sonny away for killing Frank.

"Yeah we can .. but ... I'm going to need your help." Zander looked at his brother confused.

"My help, what hell do you need me for?" Zander questioned.

"I'll tell ya about in my office." Ric led the way to his office and Zander followed close behind wanting to know what he would have to offer this case against Sonny.

I have a bad feeling that this won't stick as Zander hopes.

I like surprised Sonny was to be hauled off to the police station, robe and all...it was priceless....If Sonny is out of the way (that is if it sticks) then Jason will be solo to deal with not only Ric but Zander and anyone else for that matter. This could be really good
