Randy left the restaurant and after locking up called John.
"Hey" John said after the second ring. "You just locking up?"
"Yeah but Ashley left early so I'm going to be home late because I have to walk." Randy said starting to walk.
"What do you know how far we stay from your job. Just stay there and I'll come get you." John said getting up.
"No I'll be fine." Randy said.
John sighed "It's dark and I don't want anything to happen to you."
Randy smiled "I'll be fine and I'll call you when I'm close."
John groaned "Alright just don't look at anyone or get in their business."
Randy chuckled "Alright, love you."
"Love you too." John hung up the phone and went back to cooking.
Randy put his phone in his pocket and continued his walk home. He stopped when he heard a woman screaming in an alley. He peered around the corner and saw three guys holding a woman down. "Hey!" He yelled out "Leave her alone!" He said walking into the alley.
One of the guys walked over to him. "Oh yeah and what are you going to do?"
"Call the cops!" Randy pulled out his phone but before he could dial the number he was hit in the face.
The guy grabbed Randy and pulled him further into the alley. "Drop the bitch Andy and let's deal with the hero."
Randy got to his feet. "Please don't do this alright just let us go."
"What do you want to do with him Brody?" Andy said holding a metal pipe in his hands.
The third guy, Asher, grabbed the woman by the hair and moved over to where the others were. Let's just do them both."
Brody smiled "Good idea Asher." He pushed Randy on the ground. "But let's start with the hero."
The three guys then started attacking Randy while the woman looked on helplessly. Something snapped inside her and she got up and ran. She saw a group of guys across the street and yelled for them to help her. When they got in the ally the three guys were gone and Randy was motionless on the ground. She ran over to him. "Someone call 911!"
John sat on the couch with the phone in his hands. Randy wasn't home yet and he wasn't answering his phone so he was starting to get worried. He jumped up and was about to go looking or him but his phone ringed. "Hello?"
"May I speak to John Cena?" The voice said.
"This is me." John said sitting back on the couch.
"I'm calling on behalf of Randall Orton. He was attacked not to long ago and it's very serious. We need for you to come to the hospital." She said.
"I'm on my way." John hung up the phone and headed for the hospital. Fifteen minutes later he was making his way through the halls of the hospital. "Excuse me I'm looking for Randall Keith Orton."
The nurse looked at her computer. "I'm sorry sir he was just wheeled into surgery you'll have to wait in the waiting room."
John sighed but went to the waiting room. When he got there a woman was sitting with her head down. He sat next to her and noticed a bruise on her arm. He was about to talk to the woman but a man yelling made him stop.
"Kelly?" Drew said running up to her.
Kelly got up when she saw her husband. "Drew oh my god."
"What the hell happened?" Drew said.
"I was walking home when these three guys dragged me into an alley. I got away because some guy saved my life." Kelly said.
John looked up when she said that. "Excuse me but was this the guy?" He held up a picture.
Kelly looked at him and nodded "Yeah that's him."
John sighed and sat back down. "That's my husband in there."
Kelly looked down. "I'm so sorry."
John nodded "Thank you."
"Randall Keith Orton..." A nurse said walking up to them.
John stood up and moved over to her. "How is he?"
She sighed "He has some broken rips and a busted knee but it's the blows to the head I'm worried about. We were able to patch up the knife wound but the head wound…we did everything we could."
"So you're saying that he's dead?" John shrieked.
She shook her head. "No he's in the ICU and he is stable for now."
"Can I see him?" John asked.
She nodded "Yeah follow me."
John left the woman and her husband standing there.
John paused the door to Randy's room open and nearly fell right there. He walked over to the bed and took Randy's hand. "Oh Randy why do you always have to be the hero?"
Hours later
John was asleep next when he was woken up by shouting in the hallway. He got up and made his way to the door when he opened it he saw his adopted son being manhandled by doctors. "Hey let him go."
"Dad!" Cody got lose, went over to John and hugged him. "I got your call."
"Come on." John moved to the side and let Cody into the room. He shut the door behind him and stood there as Cody went to Randy. "What happened?"
John closed his eyes "He wouldn't let me pick him up from work." He started to cry.
Cody saw and went over to him. "Dad this isn't your fault." He hugged him. "I should have been there for him."
"Dad you never would have known." Cody said. "He's going to pull through this, you'll see."
"But what if he doesn't." John said. "What if we lose him?"
Cody didn't say anything he just held his father close to him whole his other father was fighting for his life.
A/N Just a warm up and the next ones will be up soon.
