Chapter 2



A black corvette sped into the parking lot of the airport and screeched to a halt. A door opens and a very angry Matt Hardy got out.

"Jeff, I am never letting you near my car again! Ever! I'm only just getting my breath back!" yelled Matt at his younger brother, as he slammed the door shut again.

"Well sorry Matt, but I wasn't the one who couldn't get out of bed this morning! If I'd let you drive we would have missed our flight, now come one, we have to meet Amy." replied Jeff, getting out of the car, and getting his and Matt's bags out of the trunk. Jeff locked the car and they made their way into the airport. They were still arguing as they met up with their friend, and colleague, Amy Dumas.

"Hey guys! What's up?" greeted Amy.

"Oh, Matt's acting like an old woman!" complained Jeff

"I take it you drove here then Jeff?" giggled Amy, she knew how much Matt hated Jeff's fast driving.

"Yes, in my car!" exclaimed Matt, indignantly.

'Flight 223 to Denver is now boarding from Gate 4.' an announcement came over the tannoy system.

"Shit! We haven't even checked in yet! I knew you'd make us late Matt!" exclaimed Jeff in shock.

"Me? You're the one…." started Matt before Amy interrupted them.

"Guys! You go check in, and I'll go to Gate 4 and explain what's happening. They'll hold the plane for you, just hurry up!" said Amy as she pushed Matt and Jeff towards the check-in desk, before running off to Gate 4.

"Of course, Madam. As long as they get checked in quickly, we'll hold the plane for them." said the woman at the gate.

"Thank you! It's very important that they get this flight." replied Amy as she made her way to her seat.

A few minutes later…

"Thanks Amy!" said Matt as he and Jeff collapsed into their seats, either side of Amy.

"Yeah, thanks for digging us out of Matt's mess!" added Jeff. He was still a bit annoyed that they'd almost missed their flight.

"Hey, we made it didn't we?" snapped Matt

"No thanks to you!" Jeff shot back.

"Guys! Stop it! Just go to sleep or something, I don't want to be in the middle of your arguments all the way to Denver. Remember we get to find out what's happening on RAW, Vince said it's going to be great. But it won't be if you're arguing with each other. So, in the words of our good friend, will you please shut, the, hell, up!" said Amy, trying to calm them down. It worked, they both started laughing at her impression of their friend Chris Jericho.

"Okay, okay. Sorry Amy, and sorry to you too Jeff. I guess I'm just tired after our long night and being woken up by the animal form of an earthquake! I'll try and get some sleep." said Matt.

"No probs, bro" replied Jeff, as he got comfortable in his seat.

"Animal form of an earthquake?" asked Amy, confused.

"Liger" explained Jeff, as quietly as he could. Matt had closed his eyes and was trying to sleep. "We slept on the trampoline last night, like we used to when we were little. Only this morning, Matt was still asleep when I woke up, but Liger started bouncing around. I guess my dad must have called us and woke him up. Anyway, he woke me up by licking my nose, and then he started bouncing. Amy, you should have seen the look on Matt's face when he woke up! He sat straight up, and was in such a panic. He really thought there was an earthquake!" Jeff was laughing now, as he remembered what had happened that morning. His laugh was infectious, and soon Amy was laughing too. Between the two of them, they woke Matt up.

"Amy, if you tell anyone I'll kill you!" said Matt, going red again, as he too remembered the morning's event. "Now, I'm going back to sleep. Amy, read a book or something. Jeff, eat some skittles, draw - just do something other than laugh at me!" said Matt as he turned over in his seat and laid down.

"Already there bro!" replied Jeff, holding up a bag of skittles, and his sketch pad.

Amy was rummaging around in her bag, looking for her book. Eventually she found it, and they all settled down for the rest of the flight.
