Chapter Twenty Seven - Duty of Care

Friday December 7, Central Park, Manhattan, NYC, NY at 7pm:

Jeff and Aurora flew back from North Carolina where his brother Matt Hardy was hanging out with Christy Hemme, the Rock and Rave Infection, Maryse and the Beautiful People. Velvet was upset about the TNA locker room and the fact that the Knockouts had been forced to take sides; they had to either be for Vince McMahon or against Jeff Jarrett and that meant hanging out with John Cena and Mickie James or getting your butt systematically kicked by ODB and Beth Phoenix. Neither option was appealing for Sky, Love or Hemme and Matt Hardy never heard the end of it. Jeff wanted to take his brother away from all the noise and fly him to New York where he could hang out with him and Aurora while Stephanie chilled with The McCools. The Charismatic Enigma had no idea that chilling out would not be an option today, not for Stephanie or anyone around her.

Aurora packed the snow in her hand tight and added it to the already growing snowman that Jeff had created. She did it just like he showed her and soon the snowman was almost as big as he was.

"That's good Ro-Ro," Jeff said and Aurora smiled and she looked around at the other snowmen in the park; they all looked the same but theirs looked different. Instead of a hat, scarf and a carrot for a nose, their snowman had all that plus bright green hair and an intense facial expression that was like the look her father got on his face when he was in the ring. The other kids in the park noticed it but they didn't notice Jeff Hardy because he was wearing a black hoodie and a scarf around his face.

"Nice snowman," one kid said.

"Thanks, she did most of the work," Jeff said his voice muffled by the scarf and the kid looked down at the little 2 year old in the puffed up junior size parka and ski hat pulled down over her blond hair.

"Good job little girl," the kid said to Aurora reaching out to shake his hand. Aurora looked at the kid's hand, grabbed him by the fingers and stuck them in her mouth, "Ew!" the kid cried out and Aurora turned up her nose like she didn't like the taste at all. The kid took off his moist glove and shook his head as Aurora pulled a piece of lint out of her mouth and it crystallized in her hand and she threw it at the kid but he didn't feel it hit him.

"I think its time to go home," Jeff said picking Aurora up and as he did so the sky broke and it started to rain down hard in Central Park. Everyone fled for shelter with their umbrellas and hoods up and Jeff looked at Aurora knowing she had brought the rain down; she didn't want to go back to The McCools' apartment and he couldn't blame her. Her mother was severely depressed and her mental state was getting more and more unstable as the weeks went by and it was affecting Aurora immensely. "You can't hang out with me all week Ro-Ro, I need to spend some time with my girlfriend who I love very much. You can understand that can't you?"

Aurora continued to cry and Jeff sighed, "I guess you can't understand that, I know you're in pain Aurora but I can't baby-sit you all December. I have a life of my own so please stop crying, please?" he asked the little Hurricane and eventually Aurora's tears dried up and the rain stopped. "Thank you," Jeff said, "Now let's go back to The McCools and check on your mom,"

Jeff walked up the brownstone steps to the front door and rang the bell but no-one answered. He waited for a moment but still no-one came to answer the door. He decided to go in through Dan and Charlotte's bedroom window and he saw them locked in an embrace on their bed with a petrified look on their faces looking up at the ceiling. Jeff looked up at the ceiling and saw Stephanie stuck there like a spider speaking in some unknown language with her head twisted backwards, the only word Jeff could make out was 'Jericho'.

"Oh my God," Jeff said and Aurora screamed before hiding her face against Jeff's coat, "Stephanie get down from there!" Jeff said and he ran through the room down to the kitchen and got a broom. He came back and started poking Steph with it, "Get off the ceiling and come down here!" he yelled at her and she grabbed the broom with one mighty thrust and Jeff hit the ceiling before crashing to the ground in a heap. It was one of the scariest bumps Jeff had ever taken because it wasn't just his body at risk, it was Aurora's too.

"Stephanie stop!" Charlotte screamed but for some reason she couldn't move off the bed. Their bedroom was filled with some sort of demonic presence and it was holding them down.

"Come on Ro we gotta go, this is some f'd up shit," Jeff said with one foot out of the bedroom window.

"F'd up shit!" Aurora replied and Jeff regretted letting the cuss word slip out in front of such an impressionable child of God.

"You didn't hear that," he said to her as they flew out of the window.

"Yes I did!" Aurora repeated and Jeff couldn't help but laugh, at least she was happy unlike Stephanie who was the most f'd up woman on the planet right now as far as Jeff Hardy was concerned and he had to get Aurora away from her while ATM and the ARK Angels dealt with her and fixed whatever went wrong for the former Billion Dollar Princess.

The Sandbox, 2pm:

Amy waddled to the front door of the Sandbox waiting for Shawn and Hunter to finish their conversation about RAW looking at her watch knowing that if they didn't move now they were going to miss the flight to New York City. Trish told them to come down and see Stephanie today because something really bad was going to happen at the McCools' apartment.

"Hello?" Amy said answering the house phone while pulling her big green winter coat on.

"Mom please come get us we wanna come to New York and see Aunt Steph," the Amazing Cameron said as LC and Cheyenne listened in. The ARK Angels were about to go back to class but God told Cameron there was a demon about to attack Stephanie McMahon and put her in the mental hospital and that the ARK Angels had to intercept it.

"I'm sorry Cameron but you heard your father, he said you guys have to stay in school, if you keep leaving in the middle of class you're going to get kicked out," Amy said.

"But Aunt Stephanie needs us, we have to go with you!" Cameron pleaded.

Amy felt trapped; she knew Cameron was speaking prophetically something, bad was going to happen to Stephanie today and she needed angelic assistance from her friends of God. Amy and Trish were ready to go but Shawn and Hunter were taking their sweet time and it was infuriating because they didn't see the urgency of the situation. The didn't know that Stephanie's life was in the balance because their spiritual eyes were closed. The only thing DX were interested in was winning the wrestling world war against Vince McMahon and it seemed that nothing else mattered, not even Stephanie McMahon.

"I'll be there with Trish and Randy, together we'll put that demon back down to the pits of Hell," Amy said confidently.

"No you won't you're gonna get nauseous and have to go back home, then DX are gonna make The Ortons work and nobody's gonna be there to save Stephanie from being committed to a mental institution!" Cameron said.

"Oh no," Amy said concerned.

"So can you come pick us up?" Cameron asked hopefully.

"Um," Amy grunted but her answer never came, instead she ran to the kitchen and threw up over the sink.

"That's just great," Cameron said hanging up his cell-phone.

"What happened did Aunt Amy say it was okay to go to New York City or not?" LC asked her boyfriend and Cameron shook his head.

"She's already throwing up and now we have to go back to class," Cameron said.

"So there's nothing we can do to help Aunt Steph?" LC said distressed and Cameron hugged her warmly.

"This won't be the last opportunity we have to save Aunt Steph but our dads are running out of time," he said and LC scowled.

"When did our dads turn into such heartless wrestling promoters?" LC said in frustration.

"When they stepped into Vince McMahon's shoes instead of putting on the Robe of Righteousness and wearing it proudly like the Lord said they should," Cameron replied and the bell rang.

"See you after class amigos," Cheyenne said to Cameron and LC who hugged her before heading off to English class.

"Maybe we could write a paper on how stubborn people never hear God's Voice and send it to our dads," LC said and Cameron shook his head sadly.

"They'd never read it," he said sitting by his desk where the Damsels of Destruction resumed their conversation about how lame he, Cheyenne and LC were and he ignored them like always. He couldn't help but wonder how long DX were going to ignore the ARK Angels and he found himself losing interest in the lesson, like LC and Cheyenne his mind was bent on more Heavenly things.

Hartford Airport, Connecticut at 4pm:

Shawn rubbed Amy's back as she threw up by the airport entrance.

"We're gonna have to visit Stephanie another day, there's no way you're getting on a plane like this," Shawn told his wife gently.

"I told the ARK Angels I'd go, Stephanie's in trouble she needs her friends around. Come on let's go we're gonna miss the plane," Amy said moving towards the entrance but Shawn gently pulled her back towards the DX Machine.

"I'm sorry baby but The Ortons are gonna have to handle this one on the own. The ARK Angels are staying in Greenwich and so are you," Shawn said and their driver opened the door and he gently ushered his wife back into the Hummer limousine.

"The Ortons can't visit Stephanie, they're working the house show in Buffalo and there's no way I'm changing the card now," Hunter protested.

"But Stephanie needs their help Hunter," Shawn protested.

"You know how the Deadman gets when we mess with his matches without telling him, at this moment I don't think it would be wise to upset him. We don't want him to take a walk down South now do we Shawn?" Hunter replied and Shawn nodded.

"But Trish and Randy are the only ones who can help her," Amy argued but Shawn agreed with Hunter, pulling The Ortons out of tonight's house show was not an option.

"I know what we can do, we'll call Vince and tell him to go see her, once he realizes how much she really needs her family he'll do the right thing," Shawn said and he looked at Hunter's incredulous expression and knew he had just completely lost touch with reality.

"That ain't never gonna happen Shawn, come on let's go back to the office before we leave for New York I wanna go over those last minute changes we made this afternoon," Hunter said and Amy panicked.

"No, don't go back to DX Inc go to New York and see Stephanie before you leave for Buffalo!" Amy told them as they got into the DX Machine next to her.

"What are we gonna do, hold her hand why she cries her eyes out? Been there, done that! We're no good to her without you, Trish, Melina or the ARK Angels. Driver please take us back to the office and then take my wife home," Shawn said and Amy was about to protest when she threw up again. Shawn rubbed her back while Hunter held her hair back.

"Are you sure you don't wanna stay home with her, I can run the house show on my own if you want?" Hunter suggested as Shawn wiped the sweat from Amy's brow.

"That might be a good idea, thanks Hunter," Shawn said as Amy wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and rested her against Shawn's always supportive chest.

"You're welcome partner, I'll call you and tell you how the show went," Hunter said getting out his cell-phone and calling Randy Orton to make sure he was on his way to New York with Trish.

The Ortons were in L.A with Melina and John Hennigan getting their house ready for the baby which was due to come very shortly. Randy's cell phone rang and went straight to voicemail, The King's Oracle listened to it from JFK after he and Trish landed from LAX and he turned to his wife shaking his head.

"I hate it when you're right," he said and Trish sighed in frustration.

"I told you, Stephanie's going insane and we're all letting it happen," she said as Randy picked up her luggage and she carried the burden of the Truth to their rental car watching as the fans lined up around the corner to buy tickets to the TNA house show on later tonight at the Hammerstein Ballroom. It was already sold out but tickets for the WWE show in Buffalo were still available.
