Hey guys so sorry for the lateness of this chapter, you wouldn't believe the writer's block I had. Plus all of the other things I'm doing in my life right now, but I'm glad I finally have time to sit down and write this chapter as it is the last chapter in this little story. Thank you so much for all your reviews they were greatly appreciated and gave me a goal to stride towards =) Maybe in the future I might do another wrestling fic I'm not sure yet, I shall have to see what spare time I have in my schedule, because my free time is very limited. Sorry again guys and please enjoy the last update to this story!
Chapter 9 – Making It Right
After several discussions in the dining room, John and Al nodded in unison knowing what they had to do. John approached Torrie and placed his hands on her shoulders "Tor, I need you to stay here with your mom, this is no place for ladies, me and you're dad shall work everything out, you have my promise" he smiled at her with a genuine smile. She smiled back at him, she knew he would keep his promise but still she didn't want him going out there he might get hurt, she shook her head,
"No John let me go with you" she protested. John shook his head sternly and looked at her seriously,
"NO! I can't risk you, look everything will be ok, you shall get your peace that you want" he grinned his boy grin that always made her fall weak at the knees. She bit her lower lip hesitantly and then nodded slowly letting out a soft sigh,
"Ok I trust you, just be careful" she smiles and gives him a quick peck on the lips. He smirks heading with Al to the front door,
"Always am" he winks at her as they exit closing the door behind them. Torrie just stood there looking at the door, wondering if she had done the right thing.
"Mom I'm just going upstairs, I'm going to read, take my mind off of things" she walked up the stairs to her room and shut the door and looked towards her window and smirked, opening it gently she looked behind her to check her mom hadn't followed her up, noting the coast was clear she slid out the window and landed on the ledge of the roof and moved to shimmy down the drainpipe and jumped landing neatly on her feet on the ground and looked behind her back at her house and started to run off towards 'The Outsiders Zone.' Her mind raced, but at the minute the only thing she cared about was her father and John's safety, maybe she couldn't help but she couldn't just sit back she had to try.
Al and John were standing outside the entrance of 'The Outsiders Zone' John smirked looking towards Al "you scared?"
"Certainly not, they may have their weapons but we have ours" Al held his gun tightly. John laughed looking down at his own gun he was holding in his hand,
"Yes but we're hoping for no violence here, let's settle this on good terms for Torrie" John smiled. Al nodded and they headed inside, gangs would stop what they were doing as they saw them. Some nasty insults were thrown their way, none of the gangs looked pleased to see them and they all formed together as one big group. Benny was walking round and noticed the gangs all formed in a line and frowned "huh? What the?" he asked confused but then when he saw John and Al he glared "Yo! Big Mike we got company, tontors in the hood!" he yelled and smirked evilly as Big Mike came out with his rifle and glared.
"Well well, if it isn't the traitor and his new friend the one responsible for all this!" he hissed raising his gun. John frowned and stood in front of Al and held his arms out,
"whoa Mikey man cool it, we're just here to talk, so lower your gun, no violence has to occur here"
"Give me one good reason why not?" Big Mike hissed towards John.
"Well for one we were friends and we still can be, I'm still the same guy I've just grown up, you should too, besides do you want us to explain why we're here or would you just rather shoot us and never know" John smirked.
"Sounds good to me" Big Mike hissed and raised his rifle again. John smirked towards Al and whipped back round landing a hard punch to Mike's nose and frowned,
"Come on man, quit messin' shooting us aint gonna solve your problems, it will just make things worse for you, look I don't wanna shoot you but I will if you don't start co-operating, I mean it man, I'm getting really pissed off!" John glared. Big Mike took a slight step back from John's raft and sighed but still held the rifle up aiming at John,
"No! You're wrong! I can't believe you even thought of bringing a tontor here, that's so wrong John!"
"Yo! Mike! We got something interesting! Check it out!" he grinned throwing Torrie at Big Mike; he grinned holding her tight as she struggled against him. John's eyes widened,
"Torrie!" he frowned. "Mike let her go! We can settle this! Just leave her out of it"
"No John I think I'll hold on to her, don't wanna let a pretty lass like this go, besides she looks so cute when she's scared" Big Mike grins pinching Torrie's cheek hard but meant in a playful way. She winced and struggled more, but his strength completely overpowered her, she looked towards John and gasped,
"John!" she pleaded, knowing the mess she had just caused. John looked at her, there was nothing more he wanted now than to help Torrie but he didn't trust Big Mike and stayed put,
"Mike let her go! I mean it" his eyes narrowed and he gripped his gun tighter.
Big Mike saw and smirked "Ah ah! One false move and your pretty little girly here gets it!" he smirked holding his rifle at Torrie's head; she gulped and closed her eyes tight.
"Torrie!" Al yelled and stepped forward but more gang members got their guns out aiming them at him. John glared stepping forward again,
"Mike dude, you don't wanna do this! Just please let Torrie go!" John looked worriedly at Torrie and winced as he saw tears start to fall from her eyes, he never wanted this, he didn't want Torrie in danger but it seemed as long as she was with him, she would always be in danger and this he couldn't allow. "John please help!" she cried pathetically not being able to escape. John raised his gun at Big Mike angrily, his hand was slightly shaking but he ignored it,
"I'm warning you Mike, LET HER GO!" he yelled. Mike just smirked,
"Please let me go! Look you don't want this, this will just cause more conflict, I came here because I wanted to help everyone out, look around you we're all human beings here, we're all the same, no one has to get hurt here. There shall be no more Tontors and Outsiders. I want everyone to live in peace and Harmony, I want a world united" Torrie spoke bravely, still scared that the gun was still aimed at her. Big Mike looked down at her and lowered his rifle slowly, Torrie's words went into him and he nodded knowing she spoke the truth and it would be good to have peace, he slowly released her and she ran into John's arms. "Oh Torrie babe" he soothed, as she cried into his chest.
"Lower your weapons!" Big Mike ordered and the gangs did but looked at him questionably. Benny went to protest so wanting a massacre, but slowly lowered his gun in annoyance. Big Mike walked over to Al "Look I'm sorry man, I guess things just got so crazy, I would like to be your friend and exist in this world together and not divided" he said with deep sincerity.
Al nodded and lowered his gun too "That's ok, I'm sorry too, we should never have treated you as outcasts, you're just the same as us, I would be happy for us all to live in peace together" he smiled. John looked at Big Mike as he hugged Torrie and smiled nodding. Big Mike smiled back and all the gangs started to talk to Al and John and some other tontors appeared as Al had explained the situation to them and they were cool with it. Some of the outsiders had left the zone and headed towards the tontor's territory and were conversing with some tontors. Torrie lifted her head up from John's chest and looked around smiling, seeing everyone with one with each other. She looked up at John beaming brightly and looked towards Big Mike smiling and he nodded walking away.
"Oh Torrie I'm glad you're ok, but still I can't believe you came" John hugged her tight again in relief. Torrie hugged him back and looked deeply into his eyes,
"I know but I had to come, I couldn't just stay away, but hey it all worked out, the world is right and I couldn't be happier, I couldn't have done this without you John, thank you" she smiled kissing him, John kissed her back and smiled at her but then his smile faded. Torrie noticed this and looked at him questionably as he stepped back from her. "John what is it?" she asked confused.
He sighed "Torrie I'm sorry I love you so much but I can't do this, every time you're with me, you're always in danger, I don't want to keep risking your life, coz one of these days it could be fatal and I couldn't live with myself if something happened to you" he placed a hand on her cheek sadly. Torrie stepped back and shook her head gulping as to swallow the lump that was rising in her throat, because if she didn't she knew she would burst out crying. "John no, it's over now, no more danger" she tried.
He shook his head "Today yeah, but what about tomorrow and the day after that and the day after that..." he looked at her seriously. She moved forward and held onto his arms quickly to steady her balance and stop her from falling over, she worried that if she let him go as well he would go.
"John please" she said in a weak little voice "I love you, and I want to be with you forever, please don't do this, so the danger comes, it always come but we can fight it together, just as long as I'm by your side, please that's all that I want" she looked at him with tear-filled eyes but refused to let them fall. John looked intently into her eyes, he hated doing this he loved her but was that love worth Torrie's life? He looked at her and sighed, "Ok Torrie, I shall give our relationship another go, but realize this that being with me wont be a fairytale, I'm still a gang member I have many enemies and I can't promise I'll always be there to protect you" he explained making sure she understood what being in a relationship with him would entail.
She shook her head and let out a little smile "I don't care about that, I shall do my best to look after myself and you, just shut up and kiss me already" she grinned. John smirked shaking his head, she truly was one of a kind and he realized now more than ever that he could never let her go, so he held her possessively in his arms and kissed her with such a passion that soon they would need to pull away for air, but John didn't mind as long as they were together. They walked hand in hand out of the outsider's zone and smiled happily walking off into the sunset.
Well I hope that wasn't too cheesy lol but I wanted to make a good final chapter and I thought it was good =) Well bye bye for now!
