Chapter 14
The morning of the last stunt, the lightening strike, everyone was standing around outside the trailer waiting for the storm to come. It was hot and muggy and the air was still. Everyone was hot, sticky and tired and a little grumpy.
“Ugh, it’s so damn humid. I’m sweating my ass off!” J.D. said.
“Welcome to my world. I grew up in this.” Kayleigh said to him.
Criss was getting suited up in an outfit very similar to the chain mail shark suit he used for the Tesla strike. Every precaution was being made to make sure everything was covered so there was not a repeat of what happened last time.
“Hey Criss, you must be sweltering in that suit. You sure you want to do this?” J.D asked him.
“Yes, it is hot as hell in this suit and yes I still want to do it!” Criss said to J.D, slightly annoyed.
Everyone was on edge because they were worried about Criss. The heat didn’t help the mood. Kayleigh wasn’t feeling well. She had a bad feeling about the whole thing. She was feeling slightly nauseous and experienced another bright flash of white light. She jerked as if someone had slapped her and her hand went to her forehead.
“What is it?” Costa asked her.
“Nothing, just a headache.” she told him.
“Kayleigh” Costa lowered his voice so the others couldn’t hear. “What is wrong. You’ve been acting nervous and weird all morning. I know you. Tell me what’s wrong.”
Kayleigh sighed. “I don’t like this. I’ve got a bad feeling about it.”
She looked over at Criss who was still getting suited up.
“I keep having these flashes of bright light that blind me temporarily and i’m a little nauseous.” she wrapped her arms around herself.
“Shhhh.” Costa pulled her to him in a hug. “Don’t worry. He’s going to be fine. J.D worries enough for everyone.”
J.D was pacing back and forth, muttering comments like, ‘He must be crazy. He’s finally lost his mind. I can’t believe i’m here for this.’
Kayleigh laughed. “Yeah you’re right. I just can’t shake this feeling and I can’t help but worry.” She started walking over to Criss. She needed to tell him something although she had no idea what it was.
“Kayleigh.......” Costa called after her.
She took in a deep breath and exhaled as she stood in front of Criss.
“I see that look. Don’t.” Criss said to her.
“Look, Criss.....”
“No, i’m getting enough shit from J.D. now go back over there with Costa.” he saw the pained look in Kayleigh’s eyes and his voiced softened. “I’m going to be fine.” He gave her a hug and said to everyone, “Ok, i’m ready, lets do this.”
The sky was getting dark and they were starting to see flashes of lightning. Everyone was getting more nervous. The only people who were there for the stunt, aside from the crew and the paramedics were J.D., Costa, Kayleigh, Joann. and Dave. No one else wanted to be there.
Criss ran out into the open field like a child running out to play.
Costa was smoking, J.D was pacing and running his hands through his hair and Joann was biting her nails.
Everyone jumped at a loud crack of lightning.
“Woo, that one was close!” Criss yelled.
Kayleigh sighed and rubbed her head.
Costa continued to smoke but hug Kayleigh closer to him.
“Criss be careful!” Joann yelled.
Thunder boomed making everyone jump again.
Kayleigh had another bright flash before her eyes and the pain almost brought her to her knees.
At the same time there was a brilliant flash of light and a loud crack of lightning and suddenly Criss was on the ground.
Everyone was running in his direction when he didn’t get up.
“Criss! Criss!” everyone was shouting but the paramedics got there first.
The paramedics were looking over him when one of them said, “No pulse.” and began doing CPR.
“Oh God!” Joann said and started crying.
Kayleigh gasped loudly and tears were rolling down her face.
J.D was still pacing and saying, “No, no, no......”
Everyone stood there watching the paramedic giving Criss CPR while the other one was preparing the paddles.
Suddenly one of them yelled, “Clear!” and the other one shocked him with the paddles. Everyone jumped as if they’d been shocked themselves. For a moment they all held their breath.
When one of the paramedics said, “I’ve got a pulse.” everyone let out their breath. The paramedics hurried to get Criss into the ambulance.
Costa let Joann and J.D ride in the ambulance while he and Kayleigh took the car to the hospital.
They rode in silence for the first five minutes when suddenly Costa said, clearly upset, “God Kayleigh, how do you stand it? Being intuitive like that? How have you dealt with this your whole life?” He was shaking his head.
Kayleigh was looking out the window and rubbing her head. “I’ve never had it this strong before. I’ve never had premonitions of someone...... getting hurt.” She started to say “dying” but she didn’t want to think that nor did she want to say it to Costa.
They pulled up to the emergency entrance and ran inside.
“So what is going on?” Costa asked.
“I don’t know yet. He’s in a room and there are some doctors with him. They said they’d let us know something soon.” J.D said.
Kayleigh went over to Joann to comfort her and saw Dave walk in and go over to Costa and J.D to talk to them. Joann was crying and saying, “Oh God, please don’t let him die. I can’t live without him.”
“SShhhh” Kayleigh hugged her. “He’s going to be ok, hon. Really. I promise.”
Dimitra came walking hurriedly into the room. “Where’s Christopher? What is going on?” J.D sat her down and told her what happend.
They waited in the waiting room for what seemed like an eternity before a doctor finally came out to talk to them. Dimitra and Joann were both pacing.
“He’s ok.” the doctor told them. “He’s very lucky but he’s ok. I still want to keep him overnight for observation though.”
Everyone was breathing a sigh of relief and hugging each other.
“Can we see him?” Joann asked.
“Yes but not more than two of you at a time and I gave him a sedative so he’ll be out in about a half hour.” the doctor said and showed Joann and Dimitra the way to his room.
Costa, Kayleigh, J.D and Dave hugged each other. “Does that man have the most amazing luck or what? I think someone is watching over him.” Dave said and Costa looked at Kayleigh and winked at her.
“He’s definitely got connections somewhere.” Kayleigh said.
After about fifteen minutes, Dimitra and Joann came out.
“Kayleigh, he wants to talk to you. Alone.” Dimitra said, looking over at Costa and smiling. Kayleigh nodded and kissed Costa, “I’ll be right back so you and J.D can talk to him.”
Kayleigh walked into the room and looked at Criss who was sitting up in bed.
“You gave us a big scare you know.” she said and walked over and hugged him. When she started to let go he was still hugging her tight. When he finally let go he looked at her with small tears glistening in his eyes.
“I have to tell you something.”
“What’s wrong, Criss?” she asked him.
“I wanted to tell you that you were right.” Criss stared directly into her eyes.
“Right? About what?”
“My dad.” Criss said, not looking away.
“Your dad?” Kayleigh asked, shocked.
“Kayleigh, I was dead. My dad came to me and told me he loved me and he was proud of me and it wasn’t my time to go. He said I still had a lot to do.”
Kayleigh’s jaw almost dropped open.
“ I know I wasn’t hallucinating or was asleep. I....I don’t know how but I just know. If anyone else had told me they had the same experience, I would think they were hallucinating but I know I wasn’t. I just know I wasn’t.” a single tear slid down his cheek.
This made Kayleigh start crying again. “Criss....oh, I don’t know what to say other than you just had an experience that not many people ever have.”
“I know. I just wanted to tell you I believe you now.” Criss told her.
“I believe you now.”
