Chapter Twenty Six – House on Fire
The ARK Angels, the workers of St. Francis Church and everyone else braced themselves as the angry parents were about to break through the Church door. It seemed like they were going to just threaten everyone from outside the Church walls, then the pounding resumed and the angry voices rose up once again. Finally with one loud thud the door was open and the angry parents raced through and LC ran up towards them waving her Ax of Judgment at them with two warning blows through the air. The parents were terrified despite her size, LC had complete control of the weapon and it was obvious that she intended to do some serious damage with it if the parents came any closer. They started to back up but the anger on their faces was still very evident even at a distance.
"We'll be back, you haven't seen the last of us!" one of the parents threatened everyone and Reverend Rebuka was very discouraged by their anger.
"Can't we talk about this and come to a peaceful resolution?" Reverend Rebuka pleaded.
"Tell that little girl to put that ax down," one of the parents said but LC shook her head.
"No chance in Hell," she said firmly her feet planted and she was ready to strike at anyone of them if they came closer to her.
"LC's not the one that needs to back down, you're the ones who are willing to kidnap a little girl and give her to the very people who killed your children," Cameron said and the parents were instantly saddened at the memory of their children.
"If it wasn't for that little girl our children would still be alive!" the little girl's mother shouted with tears of anger burning down her face.
"All you had to do was listen to us and you'd be playing with your daughter right now!" Edge countered.
One of the parents recognized Edge and stepped forward pointing at him, "Its you, you're the one who found Alannah Pirelli, where is she?!" the man demanded and LC swung at him and he flew back in fear.
"Get back!" she cried her jaw squared and her hands ready to take another swing at the man if necessary.
"There she is, behind that couple!" one of the parents said pointing behind Mr. and Mrs. Pirelli who had done their best to conceal Alannah but the angry parents persistence made that extremely difficult.
"Grab her!" one of the mother's said and the man who had recognized Edge dared to run for Alannah. She clenched to her father as the man headed towards her but Cheyenne Speared the man to the ground and curled he up on his back in pain.
Clinging to his stomach he looked up at LC who put her Ax of Judgment to his neck and as he gulped from nervousness he could feel the hard steel press against his skin.
"If you want to live you'll leave this church and never try that again," LC warned him, "Do I make myself clear?"
The man nodded and LC pulled her ax away from the man's neck and he scrambled to his feet over to his wife who tried to support him the best she could. "Who are you children?" he asked LC and Cheyenne.
"We are the ARK Angels of DX and we're here to protect the girl you're trying to abduct," LC replied, "She's innocent – just like your children were and if you weren't so pig-headed we would have protected them too,"
The parents didn't know what to say, the ARK and GPS had taken them totally by surprise.
"We'll be back," one of the parents said nervously backing out of the Church along with the other parents.
"We'll be waiting," LC said the light from the sun outside reflecting off her Ax of Judgment which made the parents leave even faster.
As they left the workers of St. Francis Church took a deep breath and applauded LC and Cheyenne, "We've never seen such mighty courage in the face of such animosity," Reverend Rebuka said.
"Thank God they're gone, I don't think they'll be back after that," Matthew said.
"Oh they'll be back but they're not the ones we have to worry about," Cameron said pulling Reverend Rebuka back as he went to close the church doors.
"What are you talking about?" the man of God asked Cameron, then suddenly the door slammed shut from the outside and the sound of a chain being locked around the doors could be heard.
"What was that?" James said coming towards the door with the other church workers while Reverend Rebuka tried to open the door.
"We're locked in," he said and the church workers and everyone else looked at each other confused.
"And you're going to stay locked in until you give us what we want," a gruff Italian voice said and Mr. Pirelli gasped.
"Nico," he said recognizing the voice and everyone looked at him for an explanation, "It's the man that arranged the kidnapping of Alannah, he's the head of the gangsters that have been chasing us,"
An evil laugh could be heard from outside, a deep sinister laugh that made everyone on the inside of the church uncomfortable.
"You've got yourself into quite a situation haven't you Anthony?" Nico said calling Alannah's father by his first name like they were friends hoping to manipulate the man.
"Look Nico I know why you're here, there's no way I'm giving up my daughter so you might as-well leave," Mr. Pirelli said and the sinister laugh could be heard again making everyone cringe.
"Now Anthony you know that's not going to happen, if you don't give me what I earned for saving your wife's life me and my boys will make your life a living Hell," Nico threatened Mr. Pirelli.
"There's no way I can afford to pay you back Nico and by kidnapping Alannah you made my wife sick again. If it wasn't for Melina she would still be sick," Mr. Pirelli said.
"Yes the Mexicana that's been on the local news, I had no idea you were a man of faith," Nico said and Cameron and LC were getting frustrated with all the small talk.
"Neither would I but being here in Fiji has changed that," Mr. Pirelli said and Cameron indicated for him to stop talking to Nico.
"I noticed that you have assembled a little posse, a few of those people you're hanging around with took it upon themselves to get involved in something that has absolutely nothing to do with them. Isn't that right Mr. Copeland?" Nico said to Edge.
"You were pretty smart locking that door you don't want to run the risk of running into me," Edge replied angrily and once again Nico laughed.
"If you were a friend you'd help Anthony out by loaning him the money he owes me, I know you and your wrestler friends can afford it," Nico said.
"The only thing you deserve is time in jail," Edge replied.
"Been there, done that," Nico replied, "I prefer it on the outside – it's so bright and sunny. I hope you enjoyed what you've seen of Fiji so far because if you don't pay me my money it will be the last time you ever see the outside of this church,"
"What's that supposed to mean?" John Morrison asked Melina who shrugged then Jeff smelt the air, he could smell the familiar stench of gas.
"Its up to you Anthony, are you going to pay me or are you going to pay with your lives?" Nico asked but Cameron signaled for Mr. Pirelli not to say anything which really got under Nico's skin and he snarled in response, "Have it your way,"
The sound of wood burning could be heard from the top of the church and it soon spread to the sides and around the back. The temperature increased and it got hot and stuffy inside the church and the workers realized what was happening.
"Our church is on fire!" Elizabeth cried and the sound of the roof cracking got louder.
"The roof won't hold, soon it will break and fall down on top of us!" Peter said and the wrestlers looked at the ARK Angels while the church workers spoke with Reverend Rebuka thinking about what to do.
"If the fire were on the inside I could get Aurora to make it rain and put out the flames," LC said.
"I could break the door down!" Cheyenne said but Cameron shook his head.
"No way, the gangsters are outside we'd be putty in their hands," Cameron said.
"So what are we going to do?" Maria asked the ARK Angels.
"I guess I could try and get Aurora to make it rain on the outside but she's never put out a fire that big before," LC said.
"Why take a chance that Aurora might not be able to extinguish the flames when we have someone who definitely can right here?" Melina said pointing to Jeff Hardy and the ARK Angels nodded in unison.
"Yes Jeff you could do it!" Cameron said excitedly.
"All you have to do is focus," Melina encouraged Jeff who nodded as everyone started to cover their mouths as the heat and the smoke became unbearable.
"Okay, here goes," Jeff said rubbing his hands together and he imagined the water outside and he lifted it with his mind so that it was moving out of the ocean, over the beach and towards St. Francis Church in a large body. People stopped to watch the large body of water moving seemingly of its own accord and Jeff intensified his concentration so that the water would go high above the church. It was like when he made the water go up over Triple H's head back in Texas but on a much, much bigger scale. As he saw the water with his mental eye, he envisioned that it was over the church and then he released it so that it dropped over the fire and extinguished the flames. Drops of the water came through small gaps in the roof of the church and the smell of burning wood stopped. The fire was out and the church workers, the wrestlers and the Pirellis' rejoiced that their lives had been spared.
"You did it again!" Mr. Pirelli said hugging Jeff and giving him a kiss on the cheek and everyone else gave Jeff kudos as-well.
"That water power is awesome!" Edge said impressed but Jeff just responded with a small smile, he couldn't argue that the gift was awesome but it was still pretty overwhelming to him.
Melina squeezed his shoulder re-assuringly, "You'll get used to it, just give it time," she said.
"But we don't have much time, what if those gangsters do something else like this and I choke?" Jeff said but Melina shook her head.
"You won't choke, you have more control over this power than you think," she said.
"Is it safe to go outside?" Maria asked the ARK Angels.
"Yeah, the gangsters have split to devise their next plan against us," Cameron said, "Chey go open the door," he said to his sister.
"One open door coming up," Cheyenne said and she charged the church door busting it open and seeing the angry parents out there.
Everyone came out towards them ready to defend Alannah once again but they didn't seem as much of a threat as last time. In fact they were more subdued and the anger seemed to have disappeared.
"Do you come in peace?" Reverend Rebuka asked them and one of the parents stepped forward.
"We saw how God extinguished the fire with that huge body of water," he said, "It was an absolute miracle, how could we doubt that God wanted us to believe you after seeing that?"
"Can you ever forgive us for leading the gangsters to you?" one of the parents asked.
"Yes we can," Reverend Rebuka said, "we specialize in forgiveness, the question is can you forgive yourselves for not trusting us when it could have made a difference?"
The parents looked down solemnly, they were full of regret, "We would give anything to go back in time and listen to you. Then our children's lives could have been saved. All we have now is our memories, you don't have to worry about us messing with you anymore," one of the parents said, "We'll leave you alone now,"
The parents turned to walk away but Melina came out after them and pulled the first parent that had lost their child by the arm, "Where there's hope there's miracles," she said and the woman wondered what she meant, "Come with me to the beach and I'll show you what I mean," Melina said and she signaled for Jeff to come with her and everybody else followed after them as they headed down to the water where the children had been killed.
Jeff escorted Melina down to the sand and she got down on her knees and blessed the water. She got back up and turned to Jeff, "Lift up the water from the ocean bed," she said and Jeff did as he was told while Melina turned to the parents who were watching with great interest. "Jesus told the disciples that Lazarus was dead but that he was glad he wasn't' there so that they would believe. The same way I wasn't there when these children died but I am here to tell you now in the name of Jesus Christ that they are not dead but that they are alive!"
The parents couldn't believe what they were hearing but as Jeff lifted up the water from up off the ocean floor they looked under the water and could see their children there. They looked as though they were sleeping but as they stirred their parents realized that they were alive and they ran under the water to claim them and bring them back to dry land before Jeff released the water back on the ocean floor.
The children rejoiced when they saw their parents, it was similar to when the Pirellis' had been reunited but on a much larger scale.
Jeff Hardy received kudos once again but he was still overwhelmed by his gift, he decided to take Melina's advice and spend time getting acquainted with his new power.
"Will the gangsters come after us?" one of the parents asked Melina as she received multiple thank yous from the relieved and grateful parents who were now full of faith.
"At first I thought they would but now that they know we have Alannah the only people they'll be coming for is us," the ARK Angels said.
"Still we should put the parents and their children under the Blood before they go home," Matthew said and the church workers gathered with the ARK Angels and Melina and prayed over the newly reunited families.
As the families went home the church workers turned to Melina, Maria, Edge, the Two Johns, Jeff Hardy and the ARK Angels concerned.
"Are you guys gonna be okay?" Elizabeth asked them.
"We've just got to make sure the gangsters don't hit their next target," Cameron said.
"Who is their next target?" Grace asked.
"All of you," Cameron replied looking at the church workers, "And you too Reverend,"
"So what do we do?" James asked Cameron.
"You come with us, don't go home come back to the hotel with us. We have got to take those gangsters out or they are going to make everyone's life miserable for the next week," Cameron said.
Next week was a big week for the WWE, especially for a particular engaged couple that had absolutely no idea what was going on in the South Pacific and Melina and the ARK Angels wanted it to stay that way.
