Notes: Special thanks to Jules for betaing the medical stuff for me in this chapter and the last chapter.

It was a couple of hours later before a nurse came out and updated them on Ambrose's condition. She said he was on a respirator help him breathe after the surgery. Ambrose had been lucky that it was only close to a punctured lung and they were doing it as a precautionary step. They were able to stop the bleeding inside but said he would be in the hospital for at least a couple of weeks and they would be notified as soon as Ambrose was allowed visitors.

John Cena, Nikki Bella, and Naomi joined them around 8:00 in the morning. Reigns and Rollins were sprawled out in waiting room chairs trying to get a little bit of sleep as they had been up and going for over 24 hours. The nurse had said they could visit Ambrose in the late morning. They had wanted to keep him sedated and as calm as possible first.

"You guys get the ultimatum phone call," John Cena asked as he handed out coffee that he and Nikki had purchased at Starbucks.

"More like the ultimatum visit. Hunter dropped by and told us we all had to be at the show or we'd be fired," Jimmy said taking a long drink from the coffee. "Seth's staying here anyway but Roman's coming to the show. They decided someone should stay with Ambrose in case Evolution tries something."

"Probably a smart idea," Nikki said sitting down in one of the waiting room chairs. "How's he doing?"

"Broken ribs, internal damage, bruised knee cap, and a broken ankle. Nurse said he was really lucky that he hadn't punctured a lung. He's going to be in the hospital for at least a couple of weeks," Jay said. "They aren't allowing any visitors for another 2 hours or so which about gives us time to say hi and goodbye since we have to get to RAW."

"You guys are all welcome to ride in our bus," Cena said. "Might feel a little tight but that way we can arrive together."

"Thanks John," Roman said sitting up in the chair. It was definitely not the most comfortable chair he had ever slept in. He looked over at Seth who was sound asleep. He had heard the stories from both Dean and Seth about sleeping on floors while on the indy circuit so they must be used to all types of places to sleep. He took the coffee that Nikki handed him.

"So what's the plan for tonight," Naomi asked.

"Take out as many of them as possible," Roman said. "We know Triple H and the Wyatts were involved. I'm assuming the New Age Outlaws, Batista, and Orton were also there. We make them all pay for what happened to Ambrose. But no matter what, I get Triple H."

"You know I'll help you," Cena said. "Especially with getting the Wyatts," he said fingering the bandage that was still on his forehead covering the stitches he received last night after the cage match with Bray Wyatt.

"Brie and I will totally handle Stephanie McMahon," Nikki volunteered.

"You can consider Jimmy and me honorary Shield Members tonight with your plans to destroy everyone." Jay said.

"Thanks," Roman said, "we are going to need all the help we can get."

Seth woke up and looked around confused and then appeared to realize he was in a hospital waiting room.

"Anything new," he asked stretching his arms over his head.

They shook their heads.

"Just making a plan of attack for tonight," Roman answered. "It's going to be a long night."

"Since apparently yesterday was my last show with WWE," Seth said, "kick Triple H's ass for me."

Roman just grinned for the first time since they arrived at the hospital. Tonight was going to be great.

Brad Maddox was beyond nervous as he stood in the Authority's office. He had received word that Triple H and Stephanie were going to be late to the show due to unforeseeable reasons. He had been told to text them if Rollins, Reigns, or the Usos were not at the show. He had been too scared to go out to look. He had stationed security guards outside of the office. His phone rang and he jumped.

"Hello?" He squeaked.

"Brad its Stephanie," Stephanie answered. "We won't be able to make the show but if anyone, who is not currently injured or on leave, is not at the show, they will be fired."

"Sure sure no problem," he said. "Good luck."

There was a click.

Brad ran a hand through his hair. While he waited for the start of the show he made a mental list of people that would be excluded: CM Punk, AJ Lee, Miz, Summer Rae, Christian, Rey Mysterio…

there was a loud bang outside of his office and he heard the noise of yelling from his security guards.

"Who…who's out there?" He called.

"Why don't you come out and find out," he heard Roman Reigns answer.

"No no I'm fine in here," Brad called back. "Look you've got the match you asked for. You'll be teaming with the Usos against the Wyatts. Now I have a show to get ready."

"Tell Triple H I'm looking for him." He said and then there was silence.

Brad let out the breath he hadn't realized he was holding. He wiped his forehead. Tonight was going to be tough.

"What do you have there?" Doc Sampson asked Doc Ammon later that night.

"Maddox asked me to put together a list of wrestlers that are injured or on leave. I have AJ, Punk, Christian, Rey Mysterio Miz, Summer Rae down so far and Ambrose of course. Trying to remember who else."

"I'm not sure," Sampson said and then a thought hit him. He knew Rollins wasn't there that night. Everyone knew what had happened after the PPV and that Seth was staying at the hospital with Ambrose. "Put Seth Rollins down."

"What? He's not hurt."

"No but Maddox doesn't know that. Chris you owe the Shield after what you did to Ambrose. So put Seth's name down."

Ammon sighed knowing his friend was right and put the name down.

Notes: Next chapter we'll see Ambrose and of course go back to RAW as there's a bit of a rebellion while the cat's away.
