Kane was cooking breakfast with Edge that morning.
"Do you think one of us should go try to wake him?" Christian asked as he worked on the coffee.
"Yeah maybe we should, we know he wants to get back to see Taker." Kane told him. "You want to take over & I'll go check?"
"Sure." Kane left the room heading up the steps to head for the master bedroom. He got there & knocked with no answer. "Randy?" Kane called & knocked again. He didn't know why he just had an odd feeling. "Randy…" He tried a third time with still nothing. He tried the handle to feel it was locked. "Damn it…"
Kane made his way downstairs. "We may have a situation."
"What?" Both brothers asked looking at him.
"Randy isn't answering the door & it is locked."
"OK so he is sleeping heavy…he does that at times." Edge told him.
"Ju-just a feeling."
"Well can't you break it?"
"And damage the door…if I am wrong?"
"Kane we can easily afford the replace a door."
"True."
"Um any clue if there is a key somewhere?" Christian asked.
"No clue who would have it."
"Not needed." Edge told them as he finished plating the food slipping them in a warmer drawer. "I'll go check on him."
"What you gonna do?" Christian asked.
"Just relax I'll be back." He headed out of the room & headed for their room first digging through his bag. He pulled out his wallet. Opening it he looked through it till he pulled out an old room card key. "Lets just hope it is a cheap lock." He makes his way down to the bedroom & knocks while the looks the door over hoping to see a small gap between the door & the frame.
He got no answer & crouched down to look over the handle & the strike plate. "This may be a little tight…." He went to the bathroom grabbing the conditioner. He went back & coated the end he was not holding of the card with it. He then wiggled it between the door & the frame just above the lock. He then turned the card down to push against latch. He jiggled it till he felt the latch push into the door popping open.
He stood up & walked inside the darkened room. "Randy sorry if I am intruding, we were getting worried about you." Edge called out without receiving a sound. "Randy?" He walked closer to the bed seeing the younger man stretched out on the bed. He was on his back with the comforter pulled out, but something looked off with him. He sat on the side of the bed & didn't know why but he checked for a pulse. He was relieved to feel one, he noticed Randy looked a little pale even with his tanned complexion.
"Randy…come on man wake up for me." He lightly began to shake his shoulder.
Randy finally gave a light moan. He head rolled toward the sound. His eyes pushed to open. "Edge?" His tone questioning & sleepy.
"Yeah Randy…you ok?"
"Tired…how early is it?"
"It's not, it's late…that the reason we were worried about you."
"Oh…Sorry…um…How you get in here? I th-thought I locked the door."
Edge bit his top lip. "Um…you did man I…Um, I jimmied the lock to come check on you."
"Oh…um…Thanks?"
"Yeah, we already have breakfast cooked so we can go check on Taker."
"Great." Randy went to sit up with a groan & fell back onto the bed.
"Randy…ok dude you don't look so hot…maybe you should take it easy today."
"No I need to go see him…" He went to move again bracing himself as he head started to spin. "Whoa…"
"Man what if I bring breakfast up to you? Eat something then see how you feel we can always go later."
"But I prom-promised him I would be there for his evaluation. If it is as late as you make it sound we may have missed it already."
"You been under a lot of stress lately I am sure he will understand. How about we make a deal…if you still don't look good, promise to rest, we will go see him & even have him call you to talk. We can then take you later tonight when you hopefully feel better."
"I should really be there."
"Come on Randy…I promise we will have him talk to you."
"Fine…" He sighed laying back again.
"Good be right back." Edge stood up heading back downstairs. "Guys something is up." He told the others as he walked back in to the kitchen.
"What's up?" Kane asked.
"Well I got the door open & he didn't want to wake at first, he is finally up. He doesn't look good though, I suggest he stay here while we check on Taker. If he is better later than we can take him."
"Define not good."
"Um…if I had a guess I would ask if Wade was still a vampire & somehow got to him."
"What?!"
"He is weak & pale…"
"Ok…weak could just be stress. We all know he has not been sleeping well it could have just caught up with him finally."
"True…ok maybe I am over reacting."
"Did you see any marks on him?"
"Well….no…"
"Then I will just call it stress for now."
"I did make him a promise to eat, I am going to take his breakfast up to him."
"Take him juice too."
"Gotcha." Edge when to pull the one plate from the warmer & pour a glass of juice before heading back up to the bedroom.
When he returned to the room he stopped when he saw Randy at least on his feet. He May have been bracing himself against the dresser to stay standing, but he was up. He was studying himself in the mirror.
"You have any clue what's wrong?" Edge asked him. Randy's head turned to look back at him.
"Not fully sure."
"You have a feeling though?"
"Not sure."
"What are you sure of?" He walked in more setting the plate on one of the nightstands.
Randy looked back at the mirror. "A dream."
"What?"
Randy shook his head. "Nothing forget it." He went to turn & started to wobble & placed one hand on the dresser to brace himself again.
"Want help back to the bed?"
"Not that I want to, but maybe I should."
"No problem." Edge walked over placing an arm around Randy under his own arms he help lead Randy back to the bed to sit. "Um…so what was this dream about?"
"Don't worry…"
"Randy you to admit you need help we all know doesn't come the easiest to you. We both know something is wrong with you…if you suspect anything."
"Edge I don't want to think what I am…please…I can't lose that…"
"Lose what?"
Randy looked down. "I had a dream with Taker last night."
"OK…you had them about them both I am sure these last few months."
"No…you don't get it…not about him…WITH him."
Edge's brow knitted trying to think. "Sorry man you lost me."
Randy sighed. "OK you know how I get those odd visions in my sleep at times."
"Yeah…"
"Well Taker used to get his own kind at times…well a few times somehow our dreams would…um…damn don't know a good word for it." Randy reached for the juice taking a few small sips. He tried not to cringe as his muscles ached. "I guess almost cross with each other."
"Cross?"
"Damn…how to um, you ever hear how some people can learn to control their own dreams?"
"I…I think so."
"Well not only can Taker & I sometime control ours…we can cross into each others."
"Hold on what?"
"Yeah it is like we are sharing the same dream."
"Um, OK….how that explain you looking like you can pass out even after a full nights rest?"
"Um…what we did in the dream."
Edge raised a brow looking at him. "If it is what I you mean…that shouldn't of made you look like you do."
"Well…that plus so-something else."
"What else?"
"Well dreams when you know they are a dream & can control them…just about anything can happen in them…well, Taker…he…" Randy looked down lightly rubbing the side of his neck thinking.
"Hold on…that you thinking or picturing what it was?" He actually saw Randy blush that showed more easily in his current condition. "Hold on so in this dream he was still a vampire?"
"Yes."
"And he bit you?"
"Yes…I wanted him to…I have missed him so much…all aspects of him. So he let me experience all of that even if just a dream."
"But it was just that…a dream, how would a dream drain you?"
"That I am not fully sure, but it is the only explanation I have."
"Well eat…then shower…I'll check on you in a bit ok?"
"Yeah…thanks again." Edge gave a small smile as he headed downstairs.
