December 20, 2008

Randy is driving to the next venue slowly shaking his head when he is as red lights feeling his eyes wanting to close. The last three months at least he had hardly anytime off if any. He was feeling like he was on constant treadmill that for whatever reason he could not get off of.

He grumbled as he tried to play with the radio to see the one in the rental was busted. So much for music to keep him awake. He pull off the highway to track down some fast food place for coffee or something to wake him up. Getting the coffee he looked at the GPS he had to get him back on the right roads. That times of night the back roads seemed faster than the highway so he just started driving letting his electric buddy guide him.

Sometime later Randy even cracked the window open to see if the cold air would help keep him awake. He still felt him shaking himself to stay awake really fighting wanting to pull over for a few hours.

Randy parked at the arena heading inside. He was set to meet Edge there. He wasn't sure what for something about a surprise. Edges surprises most of the time seemed to be of a sexual nature. Yet another reason why he was so tired. Not that he would mind just as long as it didn't tire him more or make him sore for his match that night.

He was too lost in thought to notice the lack of people milling about outside. He pushed the doors open heading inside & look for his locker room. It was when he was heading down one of the halls he noticed the lack of people & diminished sound.

"What the hell?" He looked around. "HELLO!?" He continued looking for the locker room when the lights died. "Oh come on really?" The hall was washed in a pale blue of the security lighting but caused a lot of eerie shadows to be cast over different items lining the hall.

He placed his gear case against a wall hoping he can track it down later once he knew what was going on. He slowly continued down the hall at times calling out. He pulled out his phone flicking the screen on as he walked scrolling his contacts.

Finding Edge he dialed it.
"Yo man it's Ran. You at the arena yet."
'No won't be there either sorry.'
"Sorry what you mean sorry what bout the show?"
'It's over Randy…sorry…I-I just can't.'
"Can't what? What with the cryptic shit?" He tried not to shiver the air growing cold.
'It's over Randy.'
"What is?" his hands feeling as if they were growing numb not liking the tone of Edge's voice.
'We ar….' Randy's phone beeped & he looked seeing the screen was dark. He hit some buttons seeing the phone died.

"What the fuck man." Randy screamed as he took the next step beginning to fall. He was expecting to hit ground, but he was falling farther. Instinct he reached out his fingers grabbing the edge of something. He had dropped the phone as he scrambled to try to get his other hand up to get a better hold on the side of the hole he was now hanging from.

He tried to pull himself up but he could not get his footing on the sides. Whenever he tried to push himself up it felt like he was pushing himself back more & his fingers would begin to slip. "Come on just like climbing the wall in training. You can do this." He tried a few more times but was feeling the pain in his arms starting.

He didn't dare let go who knew how deep this hole was. He still wasn't sure where it came from, did he walk over an open drainage pipe or something?
"HELLO? ANYONE? HELP ME PLEASE. HELP ME."
His fingers ached along with his arms he tried to gain more grip but he felt nothing to grab. "HELP! PLEASE SOMEONE BE THERE!"

His chest was heaving from the strain of fighting & yelling. He closed his eyes trying to calm himself, but not enough to lose focus. "God please let someone hear me…" He then thought he remembered seeing something as he was heading in & took a chance. "JOHN & TAKER, SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME…I'M SLIPPING!" He had already lost one grip & was scrambling to try to pull his hand back up. He could feel his own weight pulling his one hand closer to the edge.

Randy was starting to wonder why he was still holding on. No one was hearing him…who knows maybe it wasn't that far of a fall, then again he doesn't remember hearing his phone landing…was that because it was so far down, or was it something soft.

Before his hand finally gave way all it's strength he felt a hand grab his wrist. "Oh thank god…" he whispered.
"Bring up you other hand." It was Taker's voice. "Come on can't hold ya all day." Randy did as told trying to reach up now having something to grip a hold of feeling a bracelet or something around Taker's wrist.

"Hold on gonna pull you up, try to push with your feet on the count of three."
"OK."
Taker counted down then pulled. Randy grunted as he was finally pulled up, but then felt himself stumbling falling forward landing on Taker as he fell backward. Randy heard Taker grunt from his weight landing on him.

Taker helped Randy sit up next to him. His vision coming back he no longer saw the arena, but a wide open landscape under a full moon. He looked around not even seeing the pit.
"What you doing here boy?" Taker solemnly asked as he stood up offer Randy a hand up.

Randy took it standing feeling a cool breeze whip around him, he saw Taker looking around. "What happened?" Taker asked focusing on him.
"Where are we?" Randy asked him almost ignoring his question.

"A place I go to think…focus myself…that is why I wondered why & how you got here." Randy shakes his head slowly with a shrug showing he had no clue to either question.
"Who was letting you fall?"

Randy lowered his head at the question still feeling the tightness in his arms. "I-I think Edge…"
"Why?" Randy shakes his head. "Try to think…you were being shown something…what?"
Randy lifted his head. "He got word recently that Christian is coming back…am I being warned…or is it my own fears?"

"Only you can answer that…have you received warnings before?"
"I don't know if I would call them warnings…but I have had dreams that hinted of things. I wouldn't call them visions because they are not fully right."
"Such as?"

Randy told him of the dream he had before hooking up with Kane & Edge together, then the car accident with Sam, that was not as major as the dream, but held similarities. He mentioned other minor dreams that showed warped views of real life events over the last couple years.

"So what you think this one may be telling you?"
"That even if he doesn't mean to…" Randy looked down with a sigh. "Edge is going to abandon me…leave me to wander hypothetically in the dark, to fall without him to catch me even though he brought me into this so much more over time."

Taker slowly nods listening to him. "What else?" Randy lifts his head looking at him puzzled. "Just think…it will come to you." Taker turns slowly walking & Randy instinctually follows him. They reach a platform with four poles, one in each corner. Black sheer fabric billows off from them in the breeze & from the tops forming a canopy top. Taker sits on the side of it & Randy sit next to him. "Anything yet?"

"He wasn't there…but you were…may have been last minute…but you were there."
"Yes…as long as I am around I guarantee you will have a safe place to land."
"Why…?"
"You are family…I will look out for all members of the family as long as I can. Also I know John cares for you…he would be broken if something happened to you."

"What do you mean as long as you are around & looking out for us as long as you can? Were are you going?"
"I can't say for sure…" Taker looks straight ahead towards the horizon. "See out there?" He points & Randy followed the direction. In the darkness it was hard to make out, but he could see the turning dark clouds.

"Storm clouds?"
"Yes, like you dream tonight, mine come at times with symbolism instead of actual things. Storm clouds…trouble over the horizon. Part of it may be starting with the trouble you see with Edge coming up. That could cause turmoil in the family if not handled well. That may be why I was hinted to it now before it happens for real. I see it being more than that though…I just don't know what yet."

"The cold wind?"
"Yes that could be heralding the change to come. Just be careful…be mindful of what you think these dreams are telling you. As long as I am around seek me if you ever need to talk…"
"I will thanks."

Taker stands up walking off & begins to shimmer like a mirage in the desert. Randy goes to follow but he gets wrapped in the fabric of the canopy until his vision does dark again.

A loud horn sounds & Randy it jarred awake from his sleep. His head had fallen forward resting in the steering wheel. A truck traveling the nearly empty road was stuck behind him at the light when his body finally gave out on him. He was glad he wasn't driving & got into an accident. He started driving thinking maybe he should find a place to pull off.

The odd thing is as he looked he wasn't feeling as tired…was it the power nap or was his mind that eager to see that dream? He gave a sigh as he continued along the road thinking even if it took a little longer maybe the highway would be safer since he wouldn't need to stop any time soon.

A couple of hours later he finally got to the hotel & made his way inside. Getting his key he headed to the room & just crashed already setting his alarm for the media blitz that would be starting once daylight hit.
