Chapter 25

Hunter was shocked as he saw the tears on Jamie's face, she never cried in public and she certainly wouldn't show any type of weakness in a situation like this. He watched as the wrestlers who had entered the ring slowly exited and headed up the ramp while other people were rushing into the ring. He saw Edge look a little shellshocked but could see he was reacting to the situation to. He could tell that something was really wrong and he felt Dawn Marie trying to pull him out of the ring. He shrugged her grip off of his arm and slowly made his way over to where his wife was lying on the ground and then he felt his anger rise as he heard what she was saying.


Jamie was panicking, she really couldn't feel her legs and no one was reassuring her the right way. She knew that they were just trying to keep her calm but that wasn't working right now. She glanced up the other way as she let her pain show on her face and let them know just what was going on.

"I can't feel my legs." She whispered scared to death at that moment. She felt someone grab her other hand and looked over and saw Hunter kneeling next to her. "I can't feel them." She whispered as she started crying even more.


Edge walked over and pulled Tyler away from Jamie so the medical people could work on her. He could feel her shaking as she watched her friend cry and struggle to move her lower limbs without any luck. He watched as they put the neck brace on Jamie and then quickly transferred her to a steady backboard to make sure her spine wasn't moved in anymore damaging directions.

"Let them take care of her." He whispered to her.

"We didn't kiss those guys and we didn't want to say those things. It was scripted and we tried everything to get out of it but nothing worked and then they just wouldn't leave us alone." Tyler cried out.


Hunter glanced up when he heard Tyler explaining everything and felt his blood boil. So Vince was playing another game with everyone was he? Hunter felt like jumping up and finding Vince so he could strangle him but at the moment he knew Jamie needed him more than anything right then. Sighing he held her hand and stroked her forehead to try and calm her down.

"It's going to be okay." He whispered as she clutched his hand.

"Sir we have to get her out of here." One of the paramedics said as he pointed towards his partner who had a gurney ready.

"I'm her husband and I'm coming with you." Hunter said stubbornly as he helped them get the stretcher out of the ring.


Alex, A.J., Kat, Michael and Jason all glanced at each other in shocked silence. How could something this terrible be happening again? They shook their heads and sucked in deep breaths as they struggled to figure out what they were going to do about what was happening. Michael took in the faces around him and nodded his head as he came up with a plan.


Tyler and Edge were sitting in the waiting room at the hospital with Hunter who was pacing back and forth. They all looked up when the doors opened and Dawn Marie and Torrie Wilson entered with smiles on their faces.

"What do you want?" Tyler asked as she got to her feet.

"We just wanted to be here for our guys, after all they are planning a divorce." Dawn Marie said as she walked over to Hunter.


Hunter felt the anger in his blood hit an all time high and he tried to think of what he was going to say to her. He didn't want to take all his anger out on her but she was getting on his nerves at the moment.

"We never said we were actually going to divorce them if you remember correctly. I have no plans to hire a divorce attorney any time soon, how bout you Edge?" Hunter asked turning towards his friend who was trying to restrain Tyler from pounding Torrie.

"Nope." Edge said simply shaking his head as he lifted his wife off the ground and placed himself in between the two women.

"You'll regret this decision considering they cheated once, what makes you think they wont again?" Dawn Marie asked getting mad.

"We never cheated you stupid little bimbo." Tyler said feeling like she needed to take them both on because Jamie couldn't take out Dawn. Just then the doctor walked out of the back room and walked towards them.

Hunter turned his full attention to the doctor whose face told a grim and bad story.

"I'm afraid her lower back has a small spinal fracture. It's very possible she will never walk again." The doctor said shaking his head.

"Never walk again?" Tyler asked collapsing as Edge grabbed her and carried her over to a chair.

"I haven't told her yet, I thought it would be best if she heard the news surrounded by people she loves and who care about her. She is going to need that support factor." The doctor warned. "It's also going to be hard on all of you, first she is going to go through denial and then she is going to get angry and then depressed. She may take everything out on you because she has no other outlet."

"We understand." Edge said because he could see Hunter didn't know what to say.


Jamie listened to the doctor and watched his face but his words weren't registering. She couldn't possibly be paralyzed, he had her mixed up with a different patient. She thought back on something she had heard after another wrestler had gone through the same thing and she brought it up.

"What about that corrective surgery?" Jamie asked forgetting what it was called.

"It's a very risky procedure, I mean it could fix the problem but wrestling again would be out of the question." The doctor warned her.

"I understand that but would I be able to walk?" Jamie asked.

"If it went well, yes." The doctor nodded his head.

Jamie wasn't sure what she was feeling about everything but she did know she was overwhelmed. She looked at her husband and her best friend and decided she had to try the surgery.

"Let's do the surgery." She said simply her mind fully made up no matter what the risks were.
