I have no ownership of WWE characters.
Cody Rhodes awoke with a start. A tall man in a leather, black jacket was pressing a gun to his forehead, and clamping a hand over his mouth. The Dashing One gasped and widened his eyes in fear. "Shhh." Said the stranger, as he placed a finger from his other hand to his own lips.
"Listen to me very carefully Cody. I'm going to remove my hand, and step back. I will be aiming this gun with silencer right at your head. If you call out ,or make a sudden move, you will be dead. Understood?"
Cody nodded his head, eyes still wide in terror. The intruder removed his hand and stepped away as he had promised. Rhodes stared at the menacing gun.
"Cody, I am a hired killer. I was employed to kill you."
Rhodes could not believe what he was hearing. "Is this a joke? Why would anyone hire you to kill me?"
"I assure you it is no joke. I don't ask questions, so I have no idea why he wants you dead."
"This is surreal." Thought Cody as he began to tremble. A single tear fell from the corner of his right eye.
The assassin reached over and wiped Cody's tear away with his gloved hand. He then held gently onto Rhodes' chin and gazed into the young wrestler's eyes. When Cody tried to pull away, the gunman pressed the weapon to his forehead. "You still have a chance to live. Don't blow it. Do everything I say sweet baby and you will survive."
"Sweet baby? Why did he call me that?"
What came out of his captor's mouth next made him wish he'd never thought the question.
"I'm in love with you Cody, but if you refuse me, I'll erase you just like that."
Cody was shaking severely now. The hit man noticed this and guided Rhodes to a sitting position. He sat down next to his hostage, and wrapped his free arm around The Dashing One's shoulder. He made sure he was still pointing the gun at his quarry. "There. There." He said as he nuzzled against the crook of Cody's neck. The gorgeous young wrestler tensed up. "Ah well, all in good time." Thought the assassin. "I'm a patient man."
With the arm that had been around Cody, the tall man pulled a black, plastic cuff(the kind that looks like an old fashioned garbage bag fastener) out of his jacket pocket. "Hold out your wrists darling."
Rhodes did as he was told because the gun was up against his head. The man holding him slid the cuff over his wrists, fastened it, and pulled it tight. When he heard Cody grunt in pain, he said, "Sorry baby, but its necessary for now.", and then kissed The Dashing One on the cheek.
Cody was repulsed, but what could he do? Get shot in the head?
The man pushed Rhodes so that he was again lying down. He then grabbed Cody's ankles and wrapped black duct tape tightly around them.
The wrestler did not appreciate being so helpless. When he saw the thick, black cloth in his abductor's hands, he had a feeling that he just might panic. "Please don't put that mphhh." Cody winced as the gag was tightened behind his head.
"You look so sexy all bound and gagged in your boxers like that."
Cody closed his eyes and prayed, "Please God, get me out of this. Don't let me get raped."
The assassin stepped outside the hotel room door, and rolled in a large laundry basket, obviously from housekeeping. "This is how I will get you out of here. As much as this pains me…." He made a fist, pulled it back, and, quickly, punched Cody in the face. This rendered Rhodes unconscious. The tall man cradled the tied up wrestler in his arms, and gently put him in the basket. He then covered his captive with several blankets, and whisked The Dashing One out to his car.
