Lives At Stake

"Dave let me go! He's dead! I'm going to kill Randy!" Candice struggled earnestly. "You hear me Orton, I'm going to kill you!"

"Jeez, you can't train with Hunter anymore!" Dave tightened his grip as she grew more violent.

-------

"No one's using my sledgehammer, we need to calm down." Hunter ordered.

(Yup yup Candice has gone a little mental lol)

"Yes please do calm down! My wife is in labor Candice you're acting like a crazy woman" Randy spoke.

................

Shawn just stared at the car not saying a word, he had knew and came to love Torrie like a daughter and now she's just been taken away.

Katie gripped onto Randy's hand as she tried to stay calm.

Matt glared at Candice and John.

"Oh so as long as Torrie survives it doesn't matter if someone else is dead or hurt. Let me ask you something Candice if you were in Katie's position and Torrie died for you and everyone was blaming you for Torrie dying, how would you feel?" Matt asked.

"Shh it's alright, can we please go?" Randy asked the paramedic.

...................

John pushed Hunter's arm but he kept John away from Randy and Matt. "No! but why Torrie?! you tell me that! she's never hurt anyone! she's the nicest, sweetest woman I have ever came to love and now Matt she's gone!" John yelled in tears of heartbreak.

"Oh I'll show you a crazy woman!" Candice snapped. "You're so full of shit, Randy. You've never cared about anyone, or anything but yourself. How come you can blame Torrie for crashing the car huh? Torrie died to save your wife, but it's her fault she's dead! You're logic is messed up. Torrie was one of the few decent people who never hurt anybody, and you couldn't give a shit that she's dead!"

Jerking loose from Dave, Candice fled in the opposite direction overwhelmed with her anger and grief as tears stung her eyes and poured down her face.

Dave sighed. "Fuck..." He muttered, not knowing what to do about his wife.

------

"I'm sorry, John, I'm sorry." Hunter repeated before giving in a hugging John for comfort.

"I'm sorry okay, I never wanted her to die but I already had to watch one person in my family die and I don't want to lose another one." Matt said.

-----------------------

the paramedic looked at Randy.

"It would be best for Katie and the baby if we did. Get in." the paramedic said.

Batista nodded. "It's not your fault, Matt. It's just an unfortunate accident. Candice is just...taking it really hard." He stared after the direction in which Candice had fled. "She won't listen to anyone right now...not even me."

Matt sighed.

"Maybe I can help her, she's right about one thing...I haven't been spending enough time with her as I should and want to." Matt said.

Randy looked at Hunter as he consoled John before he got in the truck, thinking of Torrie.

..................

John just held unto the game for comfort feeling his heart just break into a thousand of pieces.

..............

A little away from the crush, Torrie Wilson Cena laid on the grass after she had gotten out in time but she had fell down, and hit her head on a rock not realising everyone was in pieces thinking she was dead.

"I can't believe Torrie's gone." John muttered with tears in his eyes.

-----------------------------

"Go!" the paramedic yelled at the driver.

"I want this baby out of me now!" Katie yelled with tears in her eyes as she squeezed Randy's hand.

"The hospital's not that far away, don't worry." the paramedic said.

Batista shrugged. "You can give it a shot. I mean, she's so heart broken right now, she's not thinking straight. In her right mind, she wouldn't blame anyone. But when she's grieving, I never know how to get through to her...that's Jeff's area of expertise."

He then looked at Matt. "But don't you want to be at the hospital with Katie? You're about to be an Uncle."

----------

Hunter kept his grip on Cena firm. "Just let it out, Cena."

"It's alright, everything's gonna be okay" Randy soothed to Katie holding unto her hand.

.......................

John just continued to let the emotion out of him, while Shawn just looked up at the sky with "Why?" look across his face.

"Why did this have to happen to Torrie?" John asked.

Shawn looked up at the sky.

"Now god has those amazing cookies." Shawn muttered before he looked down with tears in his eyes.

-------------------------------

Matt looked as the ambulance started driving away then looked in the direction Candice ran off too.

"Then I guess I'll have to make this fast." Matt said as he ran after Candice.

---------------------------------

Katie cried.

"How do you know? The baby could be hurt." Katie said.

"Shh don't worry, just keep calm and don't listen to anyone back there what happened..Torrie? is terrible but it's not your fault...she loved you as a sister Katie so just hang on" Randy muttered gently.

..............

John just lowered his head down, as his fingers gripped unto the black ribbon because that's all he had left of Torrie.

Angry, upset and most of all, hurt, Candice wasn't sure what exactly to do. Yelling hadn't made her feel better, though Orton deserved some of it, and crying wasn't helping either. She just had this fiery hot load of emotions wreaking havoc on her system and didn't know what to do about it.

"Ahhhh!" Letting out a frustrated scream, she let out a left hook, connecting with the nearest wall. She welcomed the pain for a moment and the quick release of energy it had give her. When she pulled her hand back, she realized her knuckles were now torn and bleeding, but it didn't seem to matter.

"Why did you leave us, Torrie." She murmured, absently cradling her injured hand. "It's not fair." She whispered as the tears started again.

The truck stopped and the paramedics took the stretcher Katie was lying on out and inside the hospital as Randy followed holding Katie's hand. The went into the elevator as a nurse came in with them.

"Oh my god what happened?" the nurse asked with worry in her eyes, the nurse happened to be Randy's mother Elaine Orton.

--------------------------

Matt looked at Candice.

"Candice, are you okay?" Matt asked softly.

Candice kept her back towards Matt as to hide her injured knuckles. "No..." She said softly. "I can't seem to think straight."

Matt turned Candice around so he could be face to face with her then saw her knuckles.

"Candice what the hell did you do?!" Matt yelled as he grabbed her hand.

"Car crash, Katie's in labor...but..Torrie died" Randy muttered to his mother.

...................

John's eyes lowered down at the black ribbon in his hands, he noticed it was Torrie's favourite. Hunter sat with him on the side of the road while Shawn just kept staring at the sky.

She pulled back and shook her head. "You should be with Katie and Randy. I'm not being a nice person right now." She said, avoiding eye contact.

"No I'm staying with you because I can tell you need a brother right now." Matt said.

----------------------------

"Take her to the emergency labor and delivery room, we have to perform a C-section to get the baby out before we stitch up the wound." the doctor instructed.

As Katie was rolled out of the elevator and into the room Elaine gave her son a blue outfit and a blue mask.

"If you want to be with Katie in there you have to put this outfit on and this mask over your nose and mouth." Elaine said before she went into the room.

"I haven't done anything to deserve it. I just went off on your brother-in-law, big time." Candice muttered.

Randy slowly nodded his head putting on the outfit.

..................

John felt the silk material on his thumb as he touched it thinking of his beautiful wife.

"John, everything's gonna be okay," HHH soothed not really knowing what to say.

"I know but I never really liked Randy that much anyways." Matt said.

----------------------------

Katie looked at Elaine as she was being prepared for the C-section.

"Where's Randy?" Katie asked.

"Don't worry he'll be in here soon sweetie." Elaine said.

-----------------------------

"No it's not." John said.

"You should hate me though because it wasn't just Randy, I didn't yell at Katie directly, but I yelled about her." Candice shifted uncomfortably. "And I know how protective you are of your sister."
