"What's going on?" Chris demanded. Perry and Nancy stopped. They turned around and looked at him. Shock quite well seen on their faces.
"Chris I thought you were getting your medicine..." Nancy started to say.
"You forgot this." He held up the shawl. "What the hell is going on Nancy? Daniel's 31 not 6."
"Maybe we should go inside." Perry suggested. He kept scanning the area.
"Okay but I want to know what's going on." Chris said following them in. They went back to his room.
"Chris how much do you remember of before you got here?" Nancy asked gently.
"Last thing I remember of before here is telling Ric that I didn't want to be a Horsemen anymore. And he said he'd get me out of there."
"He did honey. He got you out and called us. We had this arranged and..." Nancy had a lot of difficulty finishing that sentence.
"No one else knows you're here Chris." Perry finished for her.
"Why not?
"It's not the same show anymore. Eric has completely taken over it. Vince and Linda are helpless to stop it. Shane's well Shane's still not able to leave bed let alone take back the show. And Stephanie..." Nancy looked to Perry for support.
"Stephanie's pregnant."
"Damn. How's Shane doing?"
"You mean besides the fact that both his legs had been shattered? Last, I heard he and Marissa are doing as well as can be expected. Shane's legs hurt too much for him to get up and into a wheelchair and Marissa takes care of him." Perry said. The pain in Chris' eyes nearly broke his heart in two.
"I tried to stop Hunter. I really did. He told me to shut up and get the hell out of the way. And when I didn't he shoved me out of the way. I could only watch helplessly as Hunter hit Shane repeatedly with the sledgehammer. I remember hearing Vince pounding on the door screaming for Hunter to stop it." Chris closed his eyes. "And yet I knew I couldn't open the door because Nash and Test were standing in front of it. I knew I wanted out then and there."
Chris stopped and looked out the window. "I remember being asked to join the Horsemen again. I never thought anything of it. I just thought it would be the same thing it had always been. If I only knew, the plan HHH and Eric had. Ric and I were just the pawns. And then they got Dean into it and..."
"I know sweetie. He's still in it. Ric said he couldn't' chance trying to get another out." Nancy said."
"Nancy just what have you been telling people?"
"That I had no idea where you were. Daniel doesn't know either. He keeps asking where you are. He even said he wanted you for his birthday." Nancy burst into tears.
"When can I get out of here to make that present come true?" Chris asked.
"It's not that simple Chris!" Perry said. "Hunter can't find out where you are! He'll drag you back there. Chris RAW's a bad place to be now."
