Disclaimer: Still remains the same. I do not own any of the actual WWE Superstars in this story but I'm still planning on it. I do own Hayley Peterson-Gowen and I do own Ariel the best friend. Other then that it's all up for grabs folks.
A/N: Yeah I am kind of glad that when everyone took off I eventually came back and started writing and kept everyone I had before and added some new people. So good on me. Now to clear some things up, they are not all related. Ariel is related to Brock who is now alive, LOL and Hayley is related step sister to Brian and half sister to that cop that's real crooked. Hope that clears some of it up. Oh did I Mention I killed Ariel? LOL she pissed me off, J/K! Okay so here is the long awaited second last chapter.
"What do you plan on doing to us now Dad? Randy told people where he was going, they know he is here, and you have already done what I can only assume as your worst to me already. What else could you possibly do to bring me down any lower?"
Hayley looked through steeled eyes at her father, almost egging him to a response when she was sure no one would come for them. They were all sitting ducks here and now they had to do whatever her father said before they could get out of here alive. Which meant only one thing. Someone had to take her father out.
"Well princess, I didn't plan on this young man going against what I set in motion for his family, but hell its interesting that your husband isn't here. He was the one I suspected of making the valiant save."
"Hey Mr. Peterson, you don't want her with Zach, then fine. I am here to take her home with me. You got your way having my girlfriend killed. You got her away from Zach and now Ariel away from me."
"Oh young man, you were only a pawn in the beginning. I saw the intentions you had for my daughter. Why do you think I had to buy you off? Promise not to kill those close to you? Or did you forget you signed yourself over to me then son?"
"I'm not your son. If I have any say I will make sure Hayley wont be your daughter either. What the hell do you want from this?" Randy asked. He knew that if he wanted to make them all last a little longer to get out of here alive they had to keep the old guy talking. Who knows what he would do if given the slightest chance.
"MY daughter with me, the way she is supposed to be. Brian is my step son, he will also stand with me."
"And what happens if someone stands between that?" Randy questioned, his eyes watching the gun, fearing for his safety as he reached behind him and pushed the dial number for Zach. If anyone was going to get them all out of this it had to be Zach.
"Who is going to stop me? The one legged boy that screws around?"
Hayley listened as her father laughed in a way that was so evil she thought this would be her one look at hell. He really was the devil in every form and he was making sure he delivered that message to everyone he touched. Including her own mother.
"Dad just let us out of here. You have to understand that there is a baby here and if we don't get her home and fed there is a good chance you might loose the only Peterson that doesn't know you for what you are."
Randy looked at Brian and signalled to the phone, where he had dialled Zach's number and could hear him talking on the other line. Now all they needed to do was get someone to say the location without making her father any more of a loose cannon.
"Hello?" Zach said into the phone, confused by who was calling him, but hearing Hayley speaking into the background and knowing that it had to be Randy. He had finally found his wife.
"Why are you holding us here, at the same hotel that your daughter met Zach, in the same room that he stayed in when he was here? Why, if you want to get rid of him so badly from her life, do you add more pain too it?"
"Randy, I don't remember the room number, get someone to say the room number." Zach processed what he was being told and made sure he was perfectly clear in what he needed to save them.
"416."
The line went dead, and Zach looked up from the phone at a frozen in place Brock. The time for talking was over now, and signalling to Brock that it was what he wanted to hear he headed for the door. Nothing could stop him from going through with this now. Hayley's father was as good as dead, and he was going to get his family back. Without the police.
"Was that Randy?" Brock asked, stating the obvious but wanting to make sure it wasn't a set up.
"Yeah, they are holding her where I stayed a few years ago, the same room and all. You coming or do you want to keep the shock of your status a secret until I bring her home?"
"No Zach, I came back from the dead for a reason and this asshole is going to pay. If you wont kill him then for everyone in my family, I will. The time of his terrorizing is over."
"Put the phone down boy. Throw it right there in the middle of the floor, and then tell me who the hell you just called!"
"No one, there wasn't any signal."
Coming over to where Randy was standing with a deer in the headlights look of being caught all over his face, Mr. Peterson took the bunt of the gun and smashed it into Randy's face, knocking him to the floor, fighting for air in the midst of darkness.
"Get the hell off him dad! What the hell were you thinking?" Hayley screamed, tears already blocking her eyesight as she flew to her knees and knelt beside Randy, making sure he didn't die on here. Not here and not now.
"He called someone. He broke the one rule to stay alive."
"He didn't call anyone Dad, just back off. You want me to be happy and to not be with Zach then fine. Leave me alone and let Randy and I work on what has been going on with us since the day we met downstairs for the first time. You may not want to admit it, and I was damn sure not going to admit it, but I fell in love with Randy that night he took me out, and I married the wrong man. I put all the people I care about in this mortal danger and all I want to do now is fix it. You want me to be with the right person and really be your daughter, then let me be with Randy."
After Hayley was done with the speech she realized what she had just confessed and how if she ever got out of this hotel room alive, she would have to make sure both Randy and Zach knew where she really stood. She had brought all of this turmoil by choosing the wrong man, and now was as good a time as any to make the right one.
It was obvious to Brian as he watched his step father take a step back, that he was finally coming back to some sort of reality. The harshness and love in her words had obviously hit him the way she had planned. He looked like he had enough of what he was doing too and that he might give him. Now was a good a time as any to wrestle that gun away from him.
They ran into the elevator after notifying the security in the hotel of the danger in room 416. As they reached the door, Zach took one more look at the very much alive Brock and had to thank God for his luck. There was no way in hell he could have come here and lived to do this on his own. With the gun in hand he waited for Brock to do his thing.
As soon as the door kicked open, Zach saw the picture that would be burned in his eyes forever. Hayley down on her knees on the floor, with a beaten and bruised Randy in her arms, kissing him to make him feel better. In the split second he took his eyes away from the other people in the house though, it started a war.
Brock made a beeline for Mr. Peterson, wanting to make him pay for all of the evil and sick deeds he had thrown at his daughter and at those that he loved. He knew there would be no way in hell to make up to Hayley what he did to her, but maybe by killing her maniac of a father, it would enter some peace between them. What he saw right now though was something he had to make sure never happened.
Mr. Peterson grabbed his gun tighter, almost noticing that he was letting it go, and turned to face Zach. At the moment he shot at Zach, there was another gunshot from another place in the room. Within seconds, Zach and Mr. Peterson hit the floor and there was nothing left but blazing bullet holes and an empty space where Hayley's heart used to be.
