Port Charles Update Monday 8/20/01
By Dawn
Jamal is at GH trying to get more blood for Jack. The
clerk at the Warlock shop sees him and recognizes him. Telling him that he was
helpful, Jamal tries to get away. The clerk wants to discuss how many vampires
are running around that people don’t believe, but Jamal finally blurts out that
his best friend is a vampire, the head vampire is dead, and Jamal has to find a
way to help his friend. The clerk tells Jamal that he’s wrong. If the head bat
is dead, all the baby bats go back to being human. He knows more about vampires
then any of the really freaky people he knows, and he’s telling Jamal that if
his friend is still a vampire, the one that created him is still alive. Jamal
finally understands that this means that Caleb is still alive, and Michael lied
to them.
Caleb is feeding on Livvie and she is saying yes over
and over.
Jack screams and Alison freaks. He wants her to tell
Livvie how much he loves her.
Livvie is telling Caleb she loves him and she never
thought it would feel this way. She begs him to not let go, but Caleb doesn’t
want to hurt her. He’s giving her a lifetime of power, where every wish will be
granted, and she will have a love evermore. Smiling, Livvie holds his hand as it
caresses her face.
James leads Kevin to the living room, offering him wine.
Kevin declines, preferring to keep his head clear. Holding the bottle, James
mentions that it’s good he has chosen to abstain for the moment, the wine needs
more time to breath. He offers Kevin the bottle to examine the label, and as
Kevin tries to read it, James blows that dust off the bottle in his face. Kevin
begins to cough as James continues to tell him that Napoleon spared an entire
village for a case of that wine. Finally, Kevin asks for water, but James
insists he drink the wine.
Rafe is dragging Lucy through the graveyard as she
continues to scream for help. Finally he tells her that she’s wasting her time,
the villagers would rather slit their own wrists then enter the graveyard at
night. Convinced that he’s going to kill her, Lucy begins to struggle against
him, but he holds her. After she fires several questions at him, he agrees to
answer one question at a time. His name is Rafe Kovich. This shocks Lucy, and
she realizes that they’re related. Still stunned, she asks him if he’s a
vampire, too. He laughs, and she’s offended at first, but he explains to her
that she isn’t related to vampires, she kills them. They are vampire slayers.
Lucy stops and stares at him.
Caleb stops feeding, and when he stops, Livvie begs him
to continue. She feels like she’s somewhere else, and she feels happy. She
closes her eyes and when she opens them, they are back at the villa, and she is
in her wedding gown. Caleb explains that the place exists in their hearts, and
it is where they want to be. When Livvie tells him that Michael said he had
killed Caleb, Caleb promises her that the good father will get what’s coming to
him. Livvie was lost when she heard, and she couldn’t bear life without him.
Caleb is convinced that he is her future, and it’s time to finish what they
started. She will be his for all time.
Jack can feel something’s wrong, but Alison tries to
convince him that everything is fine. Not believing her, he tells her that he’s
still dangerous, and he has to die to save Livvie. Screaming his name, she begs
him to fight for Livvie. She loves him and she can’t lose him again. Livvie
dreams about him every night. Jack wants her to promise to look out for Livvie,
but Alison wants him to do it himself. He wants her to promise that she will
help Livvie get over Caleb’s hypnotizing. Growing weaker, Jack starts to shake
in Alison’s arms. Alison gets an idea. Finding a knife, Alison cuts her own
arm, screaming as the blood starts to flow from the cut.
Lucy still doesn’t believe Rafe. She can’t even say the
words, and she thinks he’s wacko. As she tries to run, Rafe blocks her path and
backs her up several steps while he explains. The Morley's are vampires, and
they embody evil. For every evil thing in the Universe, there is a counter for
it. The Koviches kill vampires. Lucy’s analogy is to a Roach Motel for vampires.
Smiling, Rafe tells her something along those lines. As Lucy tries to leave
again, he asks her about her powers- the Kovich gifts that have been passed
through their bloodline. This stops her and she admits that she’s intuitive and
a little psychic. Rafe tells her that she’s more than a little psychic and
there’s more to learn about. If Lucy goes along with this, she still can’t
believe that they’re vampire stakers. Slayers, Rafe corrects her, but she
continues. She wants to see these powers he’s talking about. Proof. As she
continues, he stares at her. Her sentence about him staring at her until she
gets nervous cuts off when she hears the word “no” in her head. This stuns her,
and she realizes that he’s inside her head and now she wants to know how he did
it. Calling her cousin, Rafe informs her that she can do it too. They don’t need
their mouths to hear each other. He promises her that it’s just the beginning.
Hearing they are the last of the Koviches doesn’t make her happy, but she
realizes that she was able to stop Caleb because she is a vampire slayer. Rafe
nods and tells her a powerful one. All she wants is one teeny tiny power, but he
has priorities. Getting her and Kevin to safety is it right now. James Richfield
wants her dead. He didn’t save her life, Rafe did.
Kevin is on the sofa unconscious. Commenting on the
wine, James takes the glass from his hand.
Alison holds her bleeding arm to Jack and he tries to
refuse her, but Alison won’t let him. Jack, Jamal, and Livvie are her family,
and she’s not going to let him die. He’s afraid that if he feeds from her, he
won’t be able to stop. Alison trusts him, and she offers her arm again, telling
him that it’s okay. Finally, Jack gives in to the hunger and as he gets closer,
Jamal’s voice echoes through the caverns screaming “NO!”
Caleb promises Livvie that they will be together
forever. Kneeling before her, he promises that they will be bound for the ages
if she comes to him of her own free will. Beyond death, it is a pact of blood
that he is offering. For them to become one. Livvie returns his promise by
telling him that she will forever he his. They begin to kiss, and then make
love. Livvie loves him, and she kisses him passionately. Caleb caresses her
gently as they lie down together. Their hands travel over each other’s bodies as
they continue to make love. Caleb feeds from her again, and she closes her eyes.
As she lies next to him, Caleb studies her.
Lucy wonders how she could be so stupid, then threatens
Rafe to not answer that question. She should have known that James was lying to
her. Lucy is a vampire slayer, and James protects the Morley's. Lucy realizes
that Kevin is alone, and she wants to drag Rafe to help her get him out of
there, but they are surrounded. James approaches her and tells her that it’s too
late.
Jamal pulls blood out of his bag, and breaks the news to
Jack that Caleb is still alive. Jack’s first thought is of Livvie.
Caleb takes Livvie back to the edge of the river and
lies her on the ground. It is up to her, one final test to prove they’re soul mates. All Livvie has to do is find her way back to Caleb. Kissing her lips,
he notices that the last drops of live are leaving her. As soon as she crosses
over, she’ll find him. She doesn’t move as he gets up and leaves her.
Scenes:
Lucy and Kevin are in a cage. Lucy tells him that she is
a vampire slayer. Kevin doesn’t believe her, but James advises him to listen to
Lucy, so at least he’ll know why they both have to die.
Jamal leans over a still Livvie, realizing that Caleb
killed her.
