Raw : 15-07-2002.
Valerie made an exasperated sound as she looked down at the tool box.
"Dad,this isn't working" Valerie said.
"What isn't working?" Taker asked from where he was sitting next to his bike.
"I'm blocking my own light,I can't see anything" Valerie complained.
"Just get me the wrench already" Taker said.
Valerie grumbled as she tried her best to see what was in the box.She and her father were in the parking-lot of the hotel they were staying at and Taker was enhancing his bike.Valerie grabbed a wrench from the box, spilling the rest onto the floor in the process and brought it to her father.She held it out to him.
"This one?" Valerie asked.
Taker looked at it and nodded.He took it from her and continued to work on his bike.
"Why do you keep monkeying around with that thing anyway?"
"Monkeying around?" Taker asked incredulously,turning away from the bike for a moment.
"You know what I mean" Valerie grumbled.
Taker chuckled,his daughter had been in that kind of mood all day and it wasn't likely to improve any time soon. At least she hadn't yelled at him yet,that was always a good thing.She'd cheer up eventually,maybe if she'd be around her current boyfriend Brock Lesnar for a while.Taker shook his head,what his little girl could ever see in a guy like Lesnar he would never know.First Jeff Hardy,now Brock Lesnar,who's next?.Taker looked at Valerie and saw that she was looking the other way in disinterest.
"You know,you might wanna pay attention to what I'm doing here,you might actually learn something about this stuff" Taker said.
"Why would I wanna learn something about it?.I'm never gonna own a bike anyway" Valerie said.
"And why not?" Taker asked.
"Because I don't intend on ever owning a bike" Valerie stated.
"What's wrong with bikes?" Taker asked.
"Nothing,I just don't want one" Valerie said.
Taker shook his head,his own daughter didn't want a bike.Where was the world coming to?.

Valerie frowned as she saw Paul Heyman talking to her father,Brock and Taker had a tag team match against RVD and Ric Flair later on and Valerie doubted their ability to work together.Valerie turned away from the monitor and set about to get ready for her match.
She had a non-title match against Molly Holly later on and though she wasn't at risk of losing her belt she intended to win the match.After her first preparations there was a knock on the door.Before Valerie could say anything,the person knocking came in.
"Yes?.May I help you?" Valerie asked getting up.
Eric Bischoff smiled as he looked at Valerie and said:
"Allow me to introduce myself,miss Calloway.My name is Eric Bischoff"
Valerie shook his hand and Bischoff kissed the top of her hand.She rolled her eyes and said:
"Nice to meet you mr Bischoff"
"Please,miss Calloway,call me Eric" Bischoff said.
"Very well,Eric,than you may call me Valerie" Valerie said reluctantly.
"Valerie.I just came by to tell you that I am most impressed with your performance here in the WWE and I am glad that you're on the RAW brand" Bischoff said with a big smile on his face.
"Thank you Eric,congratulations on becoming the General Manager by the way" Valerie said.
"Ah yes,it is an honor.Considering the amount of talent there is on RAW" Bischoff said.
Eric gave Valerie a sly wink and she raised an eyebrow.Eric didn't notice or at least pretended not to notice cause he continued by saying:
"Good luck in your match later on and I just know you and I are gonna work miracles for the RAW brand together.I must be on my way but I'll see you later"
Val narrowed her eyes as Eric walked away and a slight shiver went up and down her spine.Creep.

Valerie craned her neck to both sides,loosening her muscles,as she stood at the entrance waiting for her music.Suddenly she felt too arms snake around her waist and she smiled when she realized who it was.
"Hey" Valerie greeted.
"Hey" Brock said.
"Have you come to wish me luck?" Valerie asked.
"You don't need luck,you'll beat her with both your hands tied behind your back" Brock said.
Valerie smiled as Brock kissed her in the neck.
"Thank you" she said.
"You're welcome" Brock said.
Valerie's music cued and she took a deep breath.Brock placed his hands on her hips and kissed her on her cheek.
"Go get 'r,baby" Brock said.
Valerie nodded and walked through the curtains.It never seized to amaze Valerie just how many people cheered for her when she came out and she loved it.She smiled broadly as she stepped into the ring.
Molly came out next along with William Regal and Valerie smirked when she saw the haughty looks on Molly and William's faces.Molly got into the ring and William stood outside it.
"Hi William" Valerie cheerfully called to William.
William merely scowled as he looked at her.The second the bell rang Molly ran at Valerie and went to take her down,Valerie was ready for her and clotheslined her down.The match went back and forth until William stepped onto the apron and gained Molly the momentum by elbowing Valerie in the jaw.Valerie went down and Molly went for the cover.
1...2...but Valerie kicked out.
A frustrated Molly dragged Valerie up by her hair and went to bodyslam her but before she could pick Valerie up,Valerie slammed her elbow into Molly's face,whipped her into the ropes and clotheslined her down.Valerie wanted to do something bigger,something more spectacular but her head was spinning.
Valerie bounced off the ropes on the opposite side from where William was standing so he wouldn't be able to harm her but when she hit the ropes she felt a harsh blow to the back of her head.Valerie frowned in confusion as she went down.She felt herself getting rolled onto her back and heard the pin but there wasn't anything she could do,she couldn't move.
1...2...3.
Molly Holly had beaten Valerie Calloway.Valerie didn't understand,what had happened?.That's when she heard the voice and her eyes widened in shock.
"Come on,Powderpuff.I'm gonna make you cry like the bitch you are"
Valerie desperately tried to clear her head but everything around her kept spinning.She could vaguely hear someone yelling at her and she tried to get up.As soon as she did she felt her legs getting kicked from under her again and she went down hard.
She felt a stinging pain to the back of her head as she was pulled from the mat and an agonizing pain in her back as she was slammed down.Suddenly she was rolled onto her stomach and she felt her head getting yanked back.Valerie screamed in pain and tapped furiously as Benoit clamped her in the crossface.
Suddenly the pressure was gone,most of the pain was still there but the pressure was gone.Valerie felt herself getting rolled gently onto her back by the referee and she forced herself to look up.In a blur she could see her boyfriend putting Chris Benoit in the F5,then she slumped down and everything went black.
***
Brock nearly panicked when he saw that Valerie was unconscious.He kneeled down beside her and forced himself to calm down,panicking would do more harm than good.Brock gently manoeuvred Valerie to the edge of the ring and was about to pick her up when he was whirled around and pushed away from Valerie.
"Back off Lesnar" Taker snarled.
"I can carry her" Brock said.
"The damn referee could carry her,that doesn't mean I'm gonna let 'm" Taker sneered.
"I'm her boyfriend" Brock retorted,trying to stay calm.
"I'm her father" Taker yelled "now back off"
Taker went to turn to his daughter but Brock turned him around again and they stared eachother down.The fans started cheering loudly when they saw who was coming down the ramp.Kane was furious,here they were arguing while Valerie needed medical assistance.Kane ignored Taker and Brock and picked Valerie up.Kane gently carried Valerie to the back while the fans cheered.

Valerie woke up with a huge headache,the king of all headaches.She looked at her surroundings and saw that she was in the doctor's office,laying on a table,her uncle was sitting right beside her.
"Hey munchkin" Kane said,smiling.
"Hi uncle Kane" Valerie said,attempting to smile.
That's when Valerie heard the loud voices in the hallway.
"Where the hell were you?" Brock yelled at Taker.
"I was preparing for my match and therefore not watching the show" Taker yelled back.
"Your own daughter wrestled and you couldn't be bothered to watch?" Brock asked incredulously.
"Don't you look at me like that,punk.I love my daughter more than anything in the world..."
"Then where were you when she needed you?" Brock yelled.
Valerie had had enough,she got off the table despite her uncle's protests and stumbled into the hallway where her boyfriend and father were yelling at eachother.Valerie stood in the doorway,her worried uncle right behind her and scowled a little.
"Dad,Brock" Valerie said firmly.
Both Brock and Taker turned around and their expressions softened.Brock saw his beautiful girlfriend,a woman he loved alot and cherished even more and Taker saw his little girl,his life,his joy.Both men felt guilty for fighting eachother but both men knew there was no other way.
