Sid raised the BB gun defensively, even though his hands were shaking terribly. "You go away you fuckhead!" he exclaimed, not caring that he wasn't supposed to say that word. He figured that in this case, his language would be forgiven. "You leave all of us alone!"
Raven smirked. "It looks like you've got a spunky little brother there Jack. That's cute."
Jack glared at the older man. "What do you want Raven?"
Raven shrugged. "Oh I don't know Jack. I want a lot of things. Good meals, a nice bed to sleep in, your daddies' untimely death…"
"You stay away from my parents," Jack growled.
"Or you'll do what? Have your baby brother shoot me with his toy gun?" Raven leered at Sid. "Really kid, what good is that going to do?"
"Keep running your mouth and I'll show you exactly what it can do," Sid replied. The asshole could laugh all he wanted to, but he obviously didn't know that Sid was planning on shooting him in the nuts if he didn't go away. That would wipe that smug look off his face.
Raven shook his head. "I've been in jail for thirteen fucking years because Randy came to me for a favor and then backed out at the last second. I took one disciple away from me--"
"Yeah, he killed a lunatic that was stalking Jeff," Jack snapped. "And your idea of a fair trade was to take me away from my rightful parents for your own sick uses? Oh, and you accomplished taking me by releasing another loony from jail who would have killed my parents if not for Grandpa Mark." He glared daggers at Raven. "Now maybe in your little sick and twisted world, you doing all of that was fair. But here in the real world, it should have meant you would have fucking died in jail, you fucking crazy bastard."
"Jack stop," Jenny moaned quietly. She sounded absolutely scared to death.
Raven took a step forward and that was all Sid gave him a chance to do. He shot the BB gun as fast as he could, hitting Raven in the groin and stomach with several shots. Raven doubled over in pain, and Jack and Aaron quickly threw the net over him and tackled him to the ground. "The tape!" Aaron shouted. "Jenny, get the tape!"
Jenny tried to do just that, but her hands were shaking too much to get any free. Sid could see that Raven was fighting Aaron and Jack as hard as he could and he would eventually win because he was stronger. "Here, trade me," he said as he handed her the gun. "Hurry up!"
She gave him the duct tape, but just as he got near Raven, Raven violently hit both Aaron and Jack and lunged at him. He tried to back up but he was grabbed by the throat. Oh fuck, he thought as he kicked at the net covered crazy man. This is not good.
"Sid! No! Raven let him go!"
The next series of events went down very quickly. Just as Randy and Jeff arrived on the scene, Jenny bashed the butt end of the gun into Raven's head. Raven let go of Sid and shoved him to the ground. Sid fell on his ass, and that hurt an awful lot. Raven started to go after Jenny, but suddenly stopped to grab at his arm and chest. It took Sid a second to realize the guy was having a heart attack.
"Sid!" Jeff yelled as he dropped down to his knees and hugged his younger son tightly. "Oh my God oh my God oh my God…"
"Quit quoting Joey Styles and let me at him!" Sid snapped as he tried to break free from his dad's grip. "I'm going to kick that dying bastard in the face!"
Matt, Katie and some security people came running out as Randy stood over Raven. He looked like he wanted to kick the older man right in the head. But he just shook his head and glared at him. "You better hope to God you die right now Raven," he said quietly. "Because if you don't, I will come for you and I will kill you." With that being said, he grabbed Jack by the arm and motioned for Jeff to bring Sid into the arena. Sid sighed as he was unceremoniously picked up. They were going to get yelled at for putting themselves in harm's way, and it was going to suck major ass. Lucky for me, I can tune all that out and not have them notice. Poor Jack is really going to get his ass handed him to him. Oh well, this was all his dumb idea.
XXXXXXXXXXXX
"How could you be so damn stupid? Do you have any idea what could have happened if we hadn't gotten there and Raven didn't have that heart attack? Do you have any idea what could still happen if he doesn't die tonight? Jesus fucking Christ! Honestly, I've expected a little more fucking common sense out of all you! And you put Sid in danger by dragging him along with you! Just what do you have to say for yourselves?"
Jeff winced. He had never heard Randy yell at any of the kids like that before. They were back in the locker room and he was holding Maggie in his lap. Jack, Jenny, Aaron and Sid were getting yelled at (although Sid was getting it a little less than the teenagers--and he was obviously tuning it out, but Jeff decided not to tell Randy that) and even though Matt looked like he had been going to yell, it now looked like he was almost scared of Randy too.
Aaron took a deep breath. "Look, we were dumb, we know that. But we were just trying to help!"
"Well you shouldn't have done it!" Randy shouted. "We would have taken care of it!"
"Would that have been before or after someone got kidnapped or raped?" Jack asked. "I mean, that's when you usually get off your ass, isn't it?"
Jeff was shocked to his very core when Randy let his temper get the best of him and slapped Jack right across the face. "Randy!"
Randy instantly looked horrified by what he had done. "Jack--"
Jack didn't say a word. He just stormed out and slammed the door behind him.
The room was completely silent. Jeff had never felt so furious with Randy before in his life. Even though Jack's comments had been out of line, Randy shouldn't have hit him. "You sit down," Jeff growled as Randy tried to chase after Jack. "I'll talk to him."
Randy shook his head. "Jeff, I--"
"Just save it," Jeff snapped. He handed Maggie to Randy. "I don't want to hear it right now." With that, he turned on his heels and stormed out, hoping he would find his oldest son before he got too far. Once again the shit has hit the fan. God, what I would give for a life without this much drama.
