Hey guys so here is the next update of this story. Sorry it took so long but I kinda of have to be in the mood to write this story. But I'm not forgetting it so as always thanks so much for reading this story and I'll see you guys at the bottom.
Monday morning came to soon for Kristina as she woke up for the last day at Hart house. After school today she wouldn't be coming back here she'd be going home and it took everything she had in her not to run downstairs and beg Bret and Julie to let her stay with them for the rest of her life or at least till college. But she knew she'd be back here in a few days since she still had a lot of training left to do and there was no way Bret was going to brake his promises to train her. After her shower Kristina got dressed in her favorite black acid washed jeans, black and pink tank top with a leather jacket with the Hart family logo on it and pulled her hair back. After she slipped her black heeled boots on and made sure her locket was straight she walked downstairs to grab a bite to eat before Bret drove her to school.
After breakfast was finished and Kristina had brushed her teeth she grabbed her backpack hugged Julie good bye and went and got in the truck with Bret. The drive to school was quite and the look on his nieces face didn't go unnoticed by Bret at all. And all he could do was give her a small which she returned. He knew Kristina hated having to go back home. She had been nightmare free while she was at Hart House but now that she was returning home after an amazing weekend that meant the nightmares would come back full force. When they arrived at the school Kristina gave Bret a good bye hug and thanked him for the amazing weekend she'd had. Bret told her she was welcome and that he would see her next weekend. Kristina just nodded got out of the truck and walked to the front of the school to wait for the bell to ring.
The school day went by in a daze for Kristina. Even though she had gotten a good grade on paper from her Creative Class she just could stop letting herself get lost in her own world. By the time she reached her history class she was to lost in her own thoughts to hear a word the teacher had to say. Even though she knew she be paying attention since they were studying Canadian History Kristina just didn't seem to worried about what every had happen in the past.
Krisa you need to pay attention or you'll never learn anything sweetie. She heard Owen say.
Kristina didn't bother to respond because she was to busy wishing the school day would end already. She wanted to go home lock herself in her room till dinner and just cry like she did every day. It was just about time for the teacher to start passing around the homework assignments when a voice came over the intercom.
"Kristina Daniels to the office please someone is here to pick you up"
Kristina sighed and grabbed her stuff. Before she left the teacher gave her the homework assignment and then told her she was free to leave. Rolling her eyes as she walked out of the class room. Kristina stopped by her locker and threw her books and grabbed her homework and walked to the office. Thinking her mom or one of her Uncles were checking her out early so she could have a short day Kristina made her way to the office. Stuff like this happen normally when she was having a crappy day at school. Her mom or someone from the Harts would pick her up and take her away for the day and take her mind off everything. But mostly important they did it to get her to talk to them about what was going on with her.
I guess Uncle Bret knew something was up and called mom. Kristina though.
When she got to the office Kristina waited outside on the bench to see who it was picking her up. When the office door open Kristina stud up almost like lighting and threw her arms around the tall six foot man with long blonde hair that came out of the office. Her best friend in the world and the only person who knew when she needed him had come to take out of school for the day. Kristina couldn't hold back the tears as he wrapped up in his arms and held her close.
"Hey Baby Krisa." Edge said breaking the silence between them.
"Adam I missed you so much!" Kristina said not letting go.
Edge just smiled and let go grabbing her backpack off the bench and nodding to the lady in the office. As the two walked out of the school Kristina held on to Edge's arm like a life line. Edge or Adam as she called him. Had become the only person in the world besides the Harts and her mom that Kristina could count on when she needed someone to talk to. Even though he was in the WWE and traveled all the time Edge never forgot about her. They talked and texted almost every week for years even when she was to young for a cell phone they would write back and forth to each other. They become like brother and sister. Christian or Jason as Kristina called him was Edge's best friend and the only other person in the world that Kristina called a brother. The Harts were cousins but Edge and Christian were her older brothers.
When they got into Edge's black dodge truck Kristina couldn't stop the smile that never left her face and it made Edge smile as well to see her smileing and happy even if it was just for a little while. Normally it was hard to get her to smile but something about being with her "older brother" made her happy. As they pulled out of the parking lot of the school Kristina started asking him a million questions. About life on the road and his title runs and about who he was feuding with this time around. And why the hell he hadn't come to visit in the last six months and how Christian was doing. Edge laughed as he answered all her questions. They were half down the road when Kristina started wondering were they were going.
"Just were are you takeing me?"Kristina asked.
"It's a surprise Baby Krisa" Edge said.
"Why do you still call me Baby? I'm not little anymore Adam." Kristina said with a slight grin she loved the nickname he'd given her and no one but Edge and Christian were allowed to call her that.
"Your still little to me. I know your teenager but I still see you as that little girl who would run back to the locker room looking for someone." Edge said.
"You can say his name Adam. It's okay."
"I know it's just... it's hard for me to say his name sometimes you know."
Kristina just nodded. She knew how close Edge had been to her Uncle Owen. In fact Edge had been of Owen's best friends along with Christian and Chris Benoit. They called themselves the Canadian mafia because they were all four Canadian's and were kick ass in the ring and they stuck together. Kristina sighed as she looked out the window of the truck and bit the inside of her jaw as she felt the tears threaten to fall down her cheeks. Edge noticed this and pulled over at a small park turned off the truck and motioned for Kristina to move next to him. Which she did and then dam broke.
"What is it Baby Krisa?" Edge asked her.
"I was thinking about that night." Kristina said.
"Oh Krisa." Edge said as he just held her.
He hated what this was doing to her. The memories of that night had stuck with everyone not only who worked with Owen but who had known him outside of the ring as well. Edge remembered that night like it was yesterday and he remembered how he had been the one who'd broke the news to Kristina and her family after the show was over. But what he was thinking of at that moment was the week after it happen. He'd gone to see Kristina and her family while he some time off.
Flashback
1 week after Owen's death
Edge took a deep breath as he rang the bell to the Daniels house. He'd come back to visit his friends while he'd gotten some off and mostly he had come by to check on Kristina. The little girl who was a like a niece to Owen and the others had taken his death harder then anyone else. When the door open Lena Daniels smiled at him and pulled him into a hug before she moved to the side and let the young man into the house.
"How are you doing Adam?" Lena asked him.
"I'm still in shock I keep thinking his going to show up in the locker room and tell everyone it was a joke or something." Edge said.
"I understand that. I kept expecting him to call us and tell us the same thing." Lena said.
"How is Sam holding up? It can't be easy on him concerning how close he was to Owen." Edge said.
"His holding up alright I suppose. His doing better then Kristina is though." Lena said.
"How is she doing?" Edge asked.
Lena motioned for him to follow her into the living room. She leaned against the door frame and nodded towards her daughter who was sitting on the floor playing with her dolls. But she wasn't having them doing anything she was sitting there playing with their hair and sitting them in a circle around what looked like a table or something. Edge just looked at Lena who looked back at him with tears in her eyes.
"She's been doing that for past week. She won't play or anything she just sits there and plays with their hair and then sits them around the little table." Lena said answering the question she saw in the younger man's eyes.
"Can I talk to her?" Edge asked.
"Good luck she won't talk to anyone right now but Bret." Lena said.
"I'm willing to try." Edge said.
Lena nodded as Edge walked into the living room and over to her daughter. Kristina hadn't noticed that anyone had walked into the room until Edge knelt down in front of her. Kristina just happen to look at that moment and started crying. Edge gave her a sad smile and picked her up in his arms and carried her to the sofa and sat down with her on his lap. He just held her tight and let the little girl cry. Lena walked into the room but Edge just shook his head telling her he could handle it right now.
After sitting there for a little while and getting Kristina claimed down enough Edge whipped away the stray tears that fell down the little girls cheeks. Kristina hide her face in his chest and just hugged him tight.
"Hey Baby Krisa. It's alright sweet girl." Edge said.
"I want Uncle Owen Edgy." Kristina sobbed.
"I know sweet girl. I want him back to. But his in a better with angels and playing pranks on Dean and Matt." Edge said.
"He is Edgy?"
"Of course he is Uncle Owen can play pranks even in heaven."
"Can play pranks on us down here Edgy?" Kristina asked.
"Of course he can. Angels have ways of visiting us even if we can't see them." Edge told her.
"Really?" Kristina asked.
"Yes Baby Krisa really." Edge said.
Kristina had smiled but not much. Edge was just happen he'd got her to talk to him. It was close to dinner time when Lena came back into the living room and found them playing with Kristina's dolls and she saw her daughter laughing and being a happy little girl again. She asked Edge if he wanted to stay for dinner which he did. And that night he had stayed and read Kristina a story and tucked her into bed before he left.
"Thanks so much for spending the afternoon with her Adam." Lena said as she walked the younger man out to his truck.
"Not a problem Lena anytime just call me okay." Edge said.
"I will do Adam and thank you again it was good to see her smileing and laughing" Lena said.
"It'll take time Lena but she'll get better."
"I hope so see you soon Adam."
Edge just smiled and walked down the pathway and got in his truck
End of Flash back
After sitting at the park for a good bit and getting Kristina settled down. They took off again and this time Kristina realized were they were going. They were the road to that lead to Sociabank Saddle Dome. Kristina just looked over at Edge with a questioning look in her eyes and he just smiled. She didn't understand what was going on. The Sociabank Saddle Dome which had once been called the Saddle Dome had been where The Canadian Stampede had been held in 1997 two years before the accident and it had also been then place Kristina had attended a WWE Pay per view. When they pulled into the parking lot Kristina undid her seat belt and got out of the truck and walked over to Edge's side. As he got out of the truck.
"What are we doing here?" Kristina asked.
"I figured you'd want to see a show since it's been along time since you've been to been to one." Edge said.
"I don't... Adam I can't..."
"Baby Krisa you can do this. Nattie and Tyson are inside along with Christian and they really want to see you." Edge said.
"I.. don't know... Adam I just..." Kristina said.
"You don't have to stay for the show Baby Krisa just come inside and see everyone. Please and then I'll take you home I promises." Edge said.
"Alright Adam" Kristina said.
Edge just smiled as he wrapped his arm around her waist and lead her to the back entrance of the Dome. As they walked down the hall way they saw all of the crew and the producers. As they made they're away down the hall Kristina felt her nervous getting the best of her. Her heart rate was going crazy and she felt her palms getting sweaty. When they reached the catering area of the arena Kristina hide her face in Edge's chest when she saw Nattie and Tyson sitting at a table with Christian.
"It's alright Baby Krisa." Edge whispered.
"I can't do this Adam I can't." Kristina said.
"Of course you can it's Nattie, Tyson and Christian. You've known them your whole life it'll be alright come on." Edge said.
Kristina just nodded as Edge lead her to the table but she kept her face hidden in his chest because she was to nervous. When they reached the table Kristina took a breath and turned to face her old friends. Nattie was the first one to stand up and wrap her in hug. Kristina sobbed as Nattie hugged her tight like a big sister. When the took pulled apart Nattie spoke.
"I can't believe your here Krisa I've missed you so much. How have you've been? Is your training going good?"
"I've missed you to Nattie. I've been well it depends on the day I guess and Uncle Bret started my training this past weekend." Kristina said.
Nattie smiled and hugged her again. When Tyson stud up and pulled Kristina into a hug as she started sobbing again. Tyson soothed her for a bit before he pulled back and smiled at her. Kristina loved Tyson to her he was family and an older brother like Christian and Edge were. They stood talking for a bit when someone picked Kristina up and spun her around a few times before sitting her back on her feet.
"C.J!" Kristina screamed as she hugged her other big brother.
"I hate when you call me C.J." Christian said. '
"Yeah but you know I can get away with it and you can't hurt me." Kristina said.
"Alright K you win. But still don't call me that." Christian said.
Kristina just laughed and hugged Christian again. After visiting with her friends for two hours Kristina told Edge she was ready to go home. After hugging her friends good bye and promising Nattie she would text her. Edge took her home. The whole way back to her house Edge and Kristina talked about things from school to how her training was going. Kristina told him things were going good at school and her training seemed to being going really good.
You can tell him about your dad Krisa you know that. She heard Owen's voice for the first time since school and she smiled to herself.
"What are you smileing about Krisa?" Edge asked her.
"Uncle Owen just told me I could tell you about my dad calling mom the other day." Kristina said.
"What did he want?" Edge asked his face going grave.
"He just wanted to see me." Kristina said.
"Oh okay." Edge said.
His upset with your father Krisa not at you. He doesn't like the fact that he left you and your mom. Owen said.
"Adam are you mad at my dad?" Kristina asked.
"Who did... Owen?"
"Yeah he told me."
"I'm upset at your dad because it's wrong that he left you and your mom like that. I know what that's like." Edge said.
"I know Adam but I'm okay really." Kristina said.
"If your sure Baby Krisa." Edge said.
You shouldn't lie to him Krisa you know that." Owen said.
"I know Uncle Owen." Kristina though.
When they arrived at her house Edge parked the car and got out to help Kristina get her stuff. After hugging Edge good bye and promising to text him and call when he got the chance. Kristina walked inside to find her mom in the kitchen talking to someone. Leaving her stuff by the door she walked into the kitchen and found her mom on the phone talking to someone. She walked over to the fridge grabbed a glass of juice and walked over to sit down at the table. After a while her mother hung up the phone and smiled at her daughter.
"How was the weekend baby girl?" Lena asked her daughter as she sat down a bowl of soup in front of her daughter.
"I already had dinner mom. With Nattie, Tyson, Adam and C.J." Kristina said.
"So that is were Adam took you alright then get upstairs and get showered. Did you get your homework done?" Lena asked.
"Yes mom. Good night mom." Kristina said as she got from the table and walked upstairs.
After showering and changing into her night clothes Kristina got settled into bed and turned off her light. Praying the nightmares wouldn't start Kristina was just about to drift off when she felt her mom lean over the bed and kiss her good night. Kristina smiled telling her mom good night as she left the room.
"Good Night Uncle Owen I love you."
Goodnight Little Krisa I love you to. Owen said
Kristina smiled and snuggled into her bed praying for a peaceful night of sleep.
