Chapter Seven – The Invisibles
Elizabeth ran back to Manhattan High just in time for her next class. She sat down next to Aurora who quickly text everyone else to tell them Beth was back.
"Beth are you okay?" Aurora asked giving her sister a hug before she sat down.
"Yeah I'm fine," Beth said.
"Where did you go?" Aurora asked.
"To Times Square, I saw Marion's billboard poster," Elizabeth said. "It's awesome,"
"How did you get to Times Square we didn't even see you leave?" Aurora said.
"I don't know but one minute I was talking to you guys and the next minute I'm looking up at a giant billboard," Elizabeth said.
"Do you remember anything weird happening before you left?" Aurora said and Beth shook her head that she didn't. "You know when stuff like this happens its either something really good or something really bad,"
"I don't think I could handle anymore bad stuff," Elizabeth replied and her cell vibrated, she got a text from RJ. "RJ says it's not bad and that he'll explain more when we get to Times Square,"
"Well if RJ says it's good then we're in for some good news," Aurora said and Stephanie's daughters smiled at each other before opening their notebooks and concentrating on today's science class.
Later on outside the school building RJ was gathered with Marion and the A twins and they were all waiting patiently for Aurora and Elizabeth to join them.
"Hey guys, ready to go see Mario's billboard?" RJ said to Aurora and Beth once they joined them.
"Well actually I've already seen it," Beth said hesitantly. "It's awesome,"
"Yeah but not as awesome as the fact that you've already seen it," Marion said.
"So what happened how did you get to Times Square?" Angela asked Beth.
"I don't know I was just there," Beth said.
"Actually Beth there's a little bit more to it than that," RJ said, "We're all going to Times Square to see Marion's billboard but you're gonna meet us there," he said and Beth frowned.
"I am?" she said.
"She is?" everyone else asked.
"Yes she is, all you have to say Beth is that you wish you could see Marion's billboard now," RJ said.
"That's what I said before it happened!" Beth remembered.
"Yeah it was so say it again," RJ said.
"Okay, I wish I could see Marion's billboard now," Beth said and one second later she was gone.
"She's gone!" Angela said in shock.
"So let's go meet her," RJ said and they all headed to Times Square where an amazed Beth Hardy was standing in front of a giant billboard of Marion Cena.
"Whoa cool billboard!" Angelo said looking up at the giant poster of Marion advertising his mother's clothing line Neutral.
"That's what's got your attention right now?" Angela said to her twin brother incredulous.
"How did you get here so fast?" Aurora said to Beth.
"She had her wish granted by God," RJ explained, "She wanted to see the poster of Marion so God defied the laws of nature and made it happen,"
"Cool!" everyone said.
"So I've got this forever? I can get whatever I want from God?" Beth asked elated.
"Not exactly, this is totally at the Lord's discretion, He'll give you what He knows you need," RJ said but there was only one thing Elizabeth wanted and she grabbed RJ by the shoulders and told him what that something was.
"I wanna see my father and I want to see him right now," she said and RJ smiled at Jeff Hardy's firstborn child.
"God says you got it," RJ said and one second later they were both gone . . .
. . . Meanwhile at a local jail in Los Angeles Downtown, CA at 7am . . .
Jeff Hardy looked around at the entwined bodies of Shawn and Amy, Trish and Randy and found himself wanting to be with his family. Chyna didn't have the company of her loved ones either but she was close to Shawn and Amy. As close as Jeff was to everyone in that jail cell he was closest to his wife and kids and he wanted to be with them right now.
"I miss you all so much," Jeff said to himself a tear rolling down his cheek and he pushed his fingers through his now blond hair and sighed.
"We miss you too Dad," Elizabeth said and Jeff stood up in shock.
"Beth? RJ?" he said with a gasp.
"Oh Daddy," Elizabeth said and she hugged her father and Jeff picked her up off her feet and squeezed all his love into her. RJ walked over to his parents and nestled himself between them. Trish and Randy squeezed him and kissed him.
"Well done son," Randy said to him.
"Listening to God pays dividends," Trish said brushing her hand over her son's head as she adored him.
Shawn, Amy and Chyna opened their eyes and saw Jeff and the Ortons hugging their firstborns.
"Oh, so this is what you were talking about when you said that Jeff would be happier in the morning," Shawn said to the Ortons.
"Beth has a Gift from God," Trish explained. "She can skip time and be wherever God allows her to be, its called Transcendence,"
"That means she's free from the limitations of the physical world, pretty cool huh?" Randy Orton said and Beth nodded.
"It sure is Uncle Randy," Beth said beaming from ear-to-ear.
"Still that doesn't explain how I got here," RJ said to his father.
"Sure it does RJ; Transcendence isn't just limited to what the one with the Gift wants to do. It also extends to the ones Beth cares about and where they want to go," Trish explained to her son.
"So because I wanted t see you guys I got transported here," RJ realized.
"But I know Aurora and the A twins would wanna be here too," Elizabeth said.
"Well somebody had to keep Marion company," RJ explained.
"Marion Cena?" Shawn asked.
"He moved to New York City with his Mom, he's a teen model," RJ said and Shawn frowned.
"But you live in Cameron Beth how come you were in New York with RJ and Marion?" he asked puzzled.
"Jericho moved us all to New York, now we live in this town called Jericho and since there's no school we take the Long Island Expressway to go to Manhattan High," Elizabeth explained.
"There's no church in Jericho either," Trish added.
"That's perfect for Jericho," Randy said.
"There's a place called Jericho?" Chyna asked disgusted.
"There's also a place called Hell and I wouldn't wanna live there either," Randy said.
"Believe me Uncle Randy we don't like it either but the good news is that we get to go to school with RJ and Marion, see Maria and the McCools and Uncle Hunter lives about twenty minutes away from us," Elizabeth said and Shawn, Amy, Chyna and the Ortons exchanged smiles.
"That means that Steph won't be forced to spend all her time with Jericho," Amy said and Jeff's face soured at the mention of the man who was quickly turning their lives upside down.
"I know Mom would love to be here right now Dad," Elizabeth said to her father.
"And I would love for her to be here," Jeff said.
. . . Back in Jericho, New York . . .
Stephanie's bed was in the process of being made, her bathroom was about to be cleaned and more of her stuff was about to be unpacked when suddenly she disappeared . . .
. . . Downtown L.A . . .
Stephanie looked around at all the familiar faces but one in particular caught her attention.
"Jeff!" she cried out and she hugged her husband lovingly while Beth, Aurora and the A twins watched smiling.
"My goodness Beth your Gift rocks!" Marion said, Beth had come back for him and her siblings awhile ago and Jeff watched with joy as they all appeared in front of him.
"How did I get here?" Stephanie said before hugging her children and then Shawn, Amy, Chyna and the Ortons.
"I wanted you here and Beth made it happen," Jeff explained and Steph looked at her daughter confused.
"I got a Gift from God Mom!" Elizabeth said with delight, "Now we can see Daddy whenever we want!"
"Well that's great really it is sweetie but won't it look odd when we suddenly appear and people see us come out of nowhere?" Stephanie asked.
"Oh it gets better Mom; nobody outside this jail cell can see us. To the outside world, we're invisible!" Beth said and Stephanie laughed with joy.
"That is one amazing Gift!" she said and she kissed her daughter lovingly.
"Yeah it stems from God's omnipresence; God can be everywhere at once which brings me to another thing about this Gift Beth but I'll tell you at school, we have to go back there now," RJ said and everyone's face fell especially the Hardys'.
"We have to leave?" Beth said in shock.
"Yes lunch-time's over and if we're not back in class our teachers will wonder what happened to us," RJ said and the Ortons nodded they understood.
"We'll see you later RJ," Randy said and he kissed and hugged his son; he didn't want him to go but he knew that he had to.
"Bye son," Trish said giving her son a hug and a kiss and he did the same before turning to Beth.
"Come on we have to go," RJ said but Beth pulled away from him.
"But I don't want to go, why would God make me do something I don't wanna do?" Beth protested angrily.
"Because He's God and He knows best," RJ replied with an authority that rivaled his parents' when it came to the Truth.
"Don't worry Beth we'll be back," Aurora said and Beth hugged Jeff passionately. The sight of Beth's distress brought tears to her mother's eyes. Eventually she let go and took her sisters' hands that were linked with Angelo, Marion and RJ.
"I want to go back to school," she said and a second later they were gone.
"Wow," Amy said impressed while Jeff squeezed Stephanie.
"I'm glad you're still here," he said and as he went to kiss her she disappeared. "Huh, where'd she go?" Jeff said looking around.
"Back home Jericho must have been looking for her," Randy said. Jeff groaned in frustration; he had been more frustrated than the others since he was remanded by the judge to a jail cell thousands of miles away from home.
"One minute I've got my children and my wife wrapped up in my arms and the next minute they're back in New York with Jericho, who does he think he is making my family leave my hometown of Cameron, North Carolina to go live with him in some place I never heard of?" Jeff said resentfully.
"Jeff Beth's Gift is a good thing, don't ruin it for yourself," Shawn said.
"I didn't ruin anything Shawn Jericho did, he ruined everything!" Jeff yelled and the guard banged on the cell bars as Jeff raised his voice.
"Pipe down in there," the guard said and Shawn and Amy sat down and rubbed Jeff's shoulders.
"Look on the bright-side kid; at least you got to see your family today. Amy, Chyna and I haven't had that wish granted," Shawn said and one second later Cameron, LC, Cheyenne and Rebecca appeared in front of them.
"Kids!" Shawn cried out with Amy.
"Daddy, Mommy!" the DX kids cried out and the Ortons smiled as they all hugged it out.
"Wait-a-minute how did we get here?" LC asked.
"You could ask my daughter if she was still here," Jeff said bitterly.
"Uh-oh, someone's eating from the wrong food group; instead of eating the honey Uncle Jeff you're sucking on the lemons," Rebecca said. "I may not know what's wrong but I can smell a bad attitude from a mile away,"
"Well then I must reek right about now," Jeff said and he shook his head pitifully.
"The trial hasn't even started yet Uncle Jeff and things are gonna get a lot worse," Amazing Cameron said.
"Hey what are you the Truth fairy?" Trish said to Cameron.
"I'm just saying if Uncle Jeff is this distressed now how is he gonna hold up once the trial gets started?" Cameron replied.
"Not very well," Randy replied exchanging glances with Shawn.
"And that's the Truth," Trish said but she didn't want to go into any detail right now; Shawn, Amy and Chyna were enjoying seeing their children and she wanted that to continue before Beth's Gift sent them back to Connecticut where Kevin and Tristen Nash were asleep unaware of the phenomenal things that God was doing around them while they were sleeping.
