A/N : I've made an attempt at Jim Ross and Paul Heyman's comments.
Smackdown Night and it was time for Valerie's match against Trish.Valerie was in her father's dressingroom with Lita right beside her.Lita was going to be at ringside for the the match,to coach Valerie.
Valerie was nervous but not because of the match,she had to do an interview with Lilian Garcia.
"You're gonna do fine" Lita assured Valerie.
"I've never done anything like this before,how do you know I'm going to do fine?"
"You have a way with words,you'll work something out"
"I hope so"
Lita smiled at Valerie and Valerie smiled back.A man knocked on the door and said:
"Valerie Calloway,it's time for your interview"
"Oh god" Valerie exclaimed.
Lita and Valerie walked out of the room and into the hallway.Valerie was silently praying that she'd be able to pull it off.They walked to where Lilian was standing in front of the camera and Lilian greeted her.
"Valerie,so glad you could make it.I know you must be very nervous but just relax,I'm just gonna ask you for your opinion on the match,maybe a comment or two about Trish and that's it"
Valerie nodded and smiled nervously.Valerie and Lilian stood in front of the camera together and Lita stood behind Valerie.When the camera was turned on,Lilian turned to it and said:
"Ladies and gentlement I'm standing by here with Valerie Calloway,one of the newest wrestlers on the roster, Valerie I wanna ask you about your upcoming match with Trish,your first singles match no less,how do you feel going into that?"
"Nervous as hell and yet I'm pretty confident as well.The way I see it this match against Trish is going to be a picnic compared to what I had to endure during my tag match against Steve Austin.Don't get me wrong,Trish is a great wrestler and I'm by no means planning on underestimating her but although I don't know if I can win this match,there is nothing she can throw at me that hasn't been thrown at me before a whole lot worse"
Before Lilian could ask another question Shane McMahon came walking into the hallway,interrupting the interview.Both Valerie and Lilian tensed up.Lilian figured she had to do her job so she raised the microphone to Shane's mouth.
"What the hell do you want?"
"Now hold up,hold up I'm not here to assault you or anything like that,I'm here to make a proposition to you" Shane said with a confident smirk.
Valerie frowned at Shane and Shane smiled.
"A proposition?"
"That's right.There's no need to beat aroung the bush,I want you to join the Alliance"
"Say what?" Valerie said pulling her eyebrow up.
"Think about it,the Alliance can give you everything you want"
"Everything?" Valerie questioned.
"Everything" Shane repeated.
"And what,mr Shane,is everything?" Valerie asked.
"Love,Family,Friends,everything a young woman like yourself could ever want" Shane said.
"Love,Family,Friend?"
"That's right"
"My boyfriend Jeff Hardy is in the WWF,that covers love…my father and my uncle are in the WWF,that just about wraps up family and as for friends,I've got quite a few of them and what do you know?.They're all in the WWF" Valerie said,ticking off her fingers.
Shane scowled and Valerie smiled.
"Oh,what a choice to make,whatever will I do?" Valerie said sarcastically.
"Sarcasm doesn't become you babygirl" Shane said,pissed off.
"Butt fucking doesn't become you,that doesn't stop you from doing it,does it?"
Shane's arm shot out and grabbed Valerie by her hair,pulling her to him.Lilian yelped and called for help,Lita tryed to help Valerie but was pushed away by Shane.Valerie kicked Shane in the groin and kicked him straight in the head.Shane fell down and both Valerie and Lita started kicking the shit out of him,even Lilian threw in a few kicks of her own.The Hardy Boys raced in and pulled Valerie and Lita off of Shane.Lita calmed down but Valerie had to be carried away.
Valerie calmed down once they were halfway down the hall.Jeff put her down and wrapped his arms around her
"Are you alright babe?" Jeff asked.
"Yeah,I'm okay" Valerie said taking a deep breath.
She had to be,it was time for her match.Jeff and Matt wished Valerie and Lita good luck as they walked to the curtain.
Valerie could hear the fans cheering and chanting all sorts of things.
Trish Stratus went out first and as she passed Valerie she turned and said:
"Good luck Valerie"
"Thanks Trish" Valerie said with a smile.
Trish smiled back and went out to her music.
Valerie was up next.She looked down at her attire,she was wearing a long white sweat pants,a white top with DEADMAN INC. in red letters on it,a black leather jacket and black leather boots.
Her father's themesong roared through the speakers and Lita rubbed Valerie's back in a reassuring gesture.Valerie threw Lita an appreciating look as they stepped out.
The fans went wild,they cheered and chanted her name.She couldn't believe what she was hearing,she had heard the chants before but she thought that was just the crowd's excitement and their willingness to cheer anyone who opposes the Alliance but now they were cheering her and her only.
"Oh my" Valerie said laughing.
She stepped into the ring and looked around,the fans were actually cheering her.
"This is going to be great,J.R.Valerie vs Trish,two of the most beautiful divas in the WWF,going at it and I get to watch" Paul Heyman said with a smirk.
Valerie discarded her leather jacket and went to turn to Trish but before she could Trish jumped on her back.Trish had expected Valerie to go down but she didn't,she stood up straight with Trish on her back,grabbed Trish by the hair and yanked her off her back.
"Valerie certainly has a tremendous size advantage over Trish…Valerie taking Trish down with a bodyslam, followed by a belly to belly suplex.Valerie stands 6'0 foot while Trish is 5'4 foot" J.R said.
"Valerie may very well be 6'0 foot but she'll never have what it takes to be a competent wrestler"
"That's not what her victory over Stone Cold Steve Austin tells me" J.R retorted.
"That was sheer dumb luck and you know it,she's not a wrestler,she's never been a wrestler and she never will be a wrestler" Heyman sneered.
"Valerie has been trained by the Undertaker,Kane and the Rock"
"No amount of talent from other wrestlers will ever make her a good wrestler"
The camera went to Lita who was cheering Valerie on as she went for the powerbomb.
"Little Lita,another dumb broad who doesn't know what's good for her"
Valerie powerbombed Trish to the mat and went on beating on her.The match went on for a little while longer with Valerie having the upperhand most of the time.
"Let me ask you a question J.R.Do you think Lita knows just how dangerous it is be at ringside right now?" Heyman asked.
"What the hell is that suppose to mean?" J.R asked.
"Valerie has turned down an offer from the Alliance,she has set herself up for a beating and if Lita's here…"
The camera went backstage where Taker and Kane were watching the match.
"I don't think Valerie has much to fear with these two men watching her back"
Than as Valerie went to finish Trish off Steve Austin came from the crowd and knocked Valerie in the head with his forearm.He smirked as Valerie dropped to the mat and was pinned by Trish.
Taker and Kane immediately came down the ramp but the damage was done.Austin was long gone and Valerie was unconscious.Taker carried his daughter backstage,a furious Kane and a worried Lita right behind him.Jeff came running up to them in the hallway,he touched Valerie's face and walked with Taker as he carried her to his dressingroom and put her down on the sofa.
Valerie woke up a little while after with a splitting headache,a nagging feeling and 5 faces around her,her father on her right,her boyfriend on her left,her uncle at the head of the sofa and Lita and Matt at her feet.
"Hey there tiger" Matt said.
"Hey" Lita said with a smile.
Valerie attempted to smile but he splitting headache made it impossible.Taker breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you alright joyful?"
"Not really no"
"Do you need anything?" Jeff asked,holding her hand.
"Yeah I do.I need to know what happened" she answered softly.
"Steve Austin" Kane growled.
Valerie looked up at her uncle and asked:
"What did he do?"
"He interfered in your match and knocked you in the back of the head"
"Did I lose?" Valerie asked.
Kane nodded.Valerie's face dropped and everyone was quiet.Jeff stroked her hand.Kane kneeled down and stroked her hair and Valerie sighed miserably.
"My first singles match and I lost"
"It wasn't your fault,you would have beat Trish" Lita said.
"You think so?" Valerie asked.
"Absolutely" Lita said.
Valerie nodded and smiled.
"I guess this means me and Austin are at war"
This comment made Taker and Kane scowl.Yeah,she was at war but she wouldn't be alone.They would be there for her and they would make it all right.
