I'm back with another explosive chapter and things really jump off for our girl Jalen. I did mention that a shocking tragedy would take place and that happens in this chapter. Furthermore, John is mysteriously attacked, but the question is will he be able to fend of the attack or will he succumb to it? One more thing, Nexus gets arrested (with the exception of Wade) and they're gonna have to fight this thing without their leader.
One more thing, please make sure to go to my poll about what sex should Jalen's baby should be, if she manages to carry her pregnancy to full term. So, the winning sex of the baby is a girl. If that happens, I already know why I'm gonna name her. Keep voting!
Enjoy and happy reading!
Lots of love, hugs and kisses from your resident writer and friend, Nina!

Jalen was all kinds of nervous as she headed towards her father's hospital room. Ten years is a long time to see someone and the young woman can't even imagine what he looks like now. All she could think about was memories of being abused and almost raped by the man who was supposed to love and protect her. A part of her doesn't wanna be here, but she needed to closure. She needed to chance to make peace with him; because her psyche won't allow her to move on unless she faces the past, head on.
Sighing deeply, she made her way around the corner, only to find several doctors going in and out of the room. Looking confused, she got closer and closer until her finger tapped one of the doctor's shoulder. He turned around and found himself face to face with the confused looking young woman.
"May I help you?" he asked, looking skeptical.
"Yes. My name is Jalen Harrington and I'm here to see my father, Michael Harrington. Is there something wrong?" she asked, looking worried.
"I'm afraid so. We had to take your father into emergency. He went into cardiac arrest," the doctor told her.
"Cardiac arrest? Oh, my," Jalen gasped, looking shocked. Genuinely shocked.
"Yeah. We don't know how this has happened, but we're trying to do everything we can for him. In the meantime, you can wait out in the lobby. If we have any new information about your father's condition, we'll let you know," the doctor said as he place his hand on her back and proceeded to escort her towards the lobby.
Okay. Someone's really fucking with me. I don't know how much more I can take this, a voice in her head said. Shaking her head violently, Jalen sat down on one of those hard chair and did something she hadn't done since she was a little girl.
She started praying.

John whistled as he made his way towards catering. It felt weird not having Jalen around to keep him company, but she was expecting and she needed to be off the road so she could take care of herself and her baby. Besides, he felt good knowing that her mother was gonna be there for her during her time off. Still, he missed her so much. They've only been together for a few weeks, but it felt like he could spend the rest of his life with her.
As he made his way around the corner, however, someone ambushed him from out of nowhere. He came up behind the West Newbury native and clocked him over the head with a lead pipe. Down went John like a ton of bricks, but he wasn't down for long. As the pipe began coming down towards his head, he somehow managed to block with his hand.
The man who attacked him was angry. Angry enough to raise his foot up to kick him, but John was smart. He reached up and punched the man right in his face, knocking him down on the floor. John then got up and proceeded to beat the holy hell out of his adversary. You could hear the other man scream from 20 miles away, but they were the only two out in the hallway.
When he finally got finished, John breathed heavily as he stood over the fallen man. He was battered and bloodied; a far cry from what John suffered a moment ago.
"You sick son of a bitch. You lucky I didn't kill your narrow ass. I'm not gonna let you hurt Jalen ever again. Just fucking try me! I'll break your fucking neck!" John hissed as he turned on his heel and stormed away.
Wade groaned in pain as he attempted to get up from the floor. This was not what he had in mind. John was supposed to be on the floor, groaning in pain, not him. He's the one who's supposed to be screaming out for help. This was not good.
He still wasn't done yet. Oh, he'd still take care of John before it's all said and done. Then, he'll have no problem getting Jalen back and making sure she doesn't have their baby.
No problem at all.

Jalen had been waiting, impatiently, for over an hour about her father's condition. She started to fall asleep when the doctor approached her with a grim look on his face. From the way he looked, things took a turn for the worse concerning her father's condition.
"Is my father okay?" Jalen asked as she bolted from her seat.
Doctor Nolan sighed sadly. "Ms. Harrington, I'm sorry. We did everything we could, but our efforts proved to be futile. Your father has passed away."
"What? No, it can't be! I mean, I knew he had advanced lung cancer, but I thought he was going through treatments!" she sobbed.
"He was. But, as it turned out, the reason why he went into cardiac arrest is that someone tampered with his IV," Nolan explained.
"W-which means that my father was murdered? Someone killed my father?" Jalen asked, still sobbing hysterically.
"I'm afraid it looks like it. I'm so sorry this happened, Ms Harrington, but someone must've snuck in without being detected and somehow injected something into your father's IV. The police are on their way here to talk to everyone. Hopefully, we can figure out who did this before it's all said and done," Nolan said, placing his hand on the young woman's shoulder.
"C-can I please see him? It's been ten years and I just want to say goodbye," she said, wiping the tears away from her face with her fingers.
"I'm sorry, but it's against hospital policy. Besides, we're gonna have to send him over to the morgue shortly," Nolan said, shaking his head.
"Please. Just let me see my father. I never had the chance to make peace with him," she said, breaking down even more.
Nolan saw the young woman break down right in front of him and his heart broke. He knew exactly what she's going through. He, too, never had the chance to make peace with his family after everything they've done to him. He ran away from home and never looked back until a unexpected phone call changed everything. Both of his parents were in a horrific car crash that took both of their lives. He never had the chance to say goodbye, either.
"Follow me," he said, taking her by the hand.
Jalen took a deep breath and sigh as she followed the young doctor. It was gonna be hard to see her father one last time, but once she does, she can finally let go. She can finally move on.
Moving on would much more difficult than anyone could imagine.

Kelly Kelly's eyes struggled to open as she slowly but surely began to wake up. Her head was pounding furiously like a drum and every single part of her body was sore. When she finally did open her eyes, her vision became blurry. She didn't know where she was.
Truth be told, she was transferred from Toronto to her home state because her family wanted to be there for her and they weren't about to fly all the way up to the Great White North to be with her. Her mother and father, along with her brother and sister feared the worst when they got the phone call a few weeks ago.
Her vision finally became clear and she realized that she was in the hospital. She didn't know how she got to be there, but she was grateful that she was still breathing. Honestly, she thought she was gonna die and she didn't know how she ended up in the condition she was in the first place.
Slowly, she sat up on the bed and looked at her surroundings. She couldn't move too much because she was hooked up on morphine and she was surrounded by monitors being hooked up against her arms. The young woman felt truly alone in here. She just wanted to get out of here and live her life again. She just wanted to get back to work; get back to her friends; get back to her boyfriend.
Get back to her life.
Kelly buried her face in her hands and began sobbing softly.
Sobbing and getting used to being alone for the time being became her new best friends.

"Man, what happened to you?" David asked as he and the rest of Nexus saw Wade stumble inside their locker room like he was drunk.
"Fucking John Cena beat my ass! I clocked him over the head with a lead pipe, but that didn't stop him! He beat the shit out of me!" Wade snapped, looking at his cohorts with anger looming on his bruised face.
"Why the hell did you attack him in the first place?" Justin asked, shaking his head in disbelief.
"Because I have unfinished business to handle with him! He stole Jalen away from me! He has to pay! But, no, he threatened to break my neck if I go anywhere near again! I'm gonna fucking kill him! That's right, I'm gonna kill John fucking Cena!" Wade snapped.
The other members of Nexus looked at each other and realized that Wade has truly lost his mind. Jalen broke up with him because she had enough of him hurting her. Furthermore, she was pregnant and he doesn't want this baby to even exist, so he had them try to make sure to take care of the problem. Well, their seemingly perfect plan backfired on them in a big way because Kelly Kelly's in the hospital.
A knock on the door startled them. David, being the more calm and practical one, went and opened it, only for two police officers to come in.
"What's going on? What can we do for you, officers?" Wade asked, looking confused.
"We're looking for a David Otunga and Justin Gabriel? Do you happen to know them?" one officer asked.
"I'm David Otunga," he replied.
"And I"m Justin Gabriel," the West African native answered.
"Well, we're gonna have to ask you two to come with us," another officer said as he pulled out his handcuffs.
"Wait a minute, here. What's going on?" Wade asked, his voice rising higher.
"What's going on is that these two are under arrest for obtaining use of an illegal substance and for attempted murder," the first officer, now being identified as Harold Shimmer, said as he slapped the cuffs right on David.
"Attempted murder?" David and Justin shouted at the same time.
"Yes, attempted murder. Ms. Blank regained consciousness," Officer Shimmer revealed.
Anger boiled in Wade's veins. He had to watched his two cohorts being arrested for their stupid mistake and he's also angry because Kelly Kelly is still breathing. He only has one person to blame for everything.
His anger only rises when saw Justin being arrested by the second officer, now identified as Nicole Stanton-Wheeler, then the two officers escorted the two members of Nexus out.
In the hallway, you could see every single WWE superstar, diva, road crew and even the higher officials standing outside the hallway; some with big smirks on their faces, some just shook their heads in shame and other didn't say a word. All they know is they've been waiting for a long time for Nexus to finally get theirs. After terrorizing the company, attacking the divas and making everyone's lives a living hell, they were finally getting what they deserve. Justin and David getting arrested was just the beginning.
Wade didn't move a muscle. He just stood there; looking at his remaining cohorts with anger looming over his face.
"You're not even gonna help them?" Heath asked, looking frustrated.
"I meant what I said, fellas. If the police got involved, I'm not gonna help them. They're gonna have to deal with this on their own," Wade seethed.
"Come on, man. Don't do this," Skip jumped in.
"Shut the fuck up! Just be lucky you weren't arrested! Now, I still want Jalen back and you're gonna help me get her back!" Wade screamed.
"H-how?" Heath asked, afraid of what may come next.
Wade smiled evilly. "By killing John Cena!"
Coming up in the next chapter: Jalen tells her mother the tragic news. Wade, Skip and Heath discover who's responsible for David and Justin going to jail. John goes to visit Jalen in her hometown and she finds out who caused her father to go into cardiac arrest, which leaves her fearing for her life even more. Will she ever be free from the torment? Stay tuned!
Please review!
