Raw : 29-07-2002.
Greensboro,NC.
Valerie closed her eyes as she clutched the phone.
"I just don't understand,why did you agree to going to Smackdown?" she asked.
"Paul said it was the best thing for my career" Brock said.
"What about me?.Am I no good for your career?" Valerie asked sadly.
"You're perfect for my career,that's why I wanna ask you to come to Smackdown as well" Brock said.
"Oh" Valerie said,she hadn't expected that.
"What do you say?" Brock asked.
"I don't know,I..." Valerie said,not finishing her sentence.
"You don't have to say anything right now,just think about it" Brock said.
"Alright,I'll think about it" Valerie said.
"I love you babycakes" Brock said.
Valerie smiled and all her doubts washed away.
"I love you too" Valerie said.

Valerie sighed happily as she walked through the hallway,her belt over her shoulder.Her match was up soon and although she wasn't defending her title,she had to be ready.Valerie stopped walking when she saw Jeff standing on the other side of the hall.
She considered taking another hallway but caught herself thinking it and mentally slapped herself,why would she have to do that?.Valerie gathered all her courage and walked on.Jeff looked up as she approached and smiled at her.Valerie saw sadness in Jeff's eyes as she stepped to him and she felt guilty.
"Hi Jeff" Valerie said.
"Hi Valerie" Jeff said.
"How's it going?" Valerie asked.
"Good,you?" Jeff asked.
"I'm doing great" Valerie said.
"That's good" Jeff said.
Valerie nodded.
"I eh...I know the last couple of weeks have been very awkward but I'm hoping you and I could still be friends" Valerie said.
Jeff looked Valerie in the eyes and cursed himself for the umpteenth time for ever letting her go.He still wanted her back but telling her that would do him no good,so he decided not to.
"Sure" Jeff said as convincingly as he could.
Valerie smiled broadly and Jeff smiled as well.She'd be his again,he would never force her to do anything but giving her a few reasons to love him again wouldn't hurt anybody.

Valerie stretched her left arm as she waited for Molly to get back to her feet.Molly had been working over it for a while before Valerie managed to retaliate.She was doing alright and she would continue to do so as long as the Big Show stayed out of the ring.
The Big Show was currently leering at Valerie from his spot in the corner.Valerie had managed to stop Molly from making the tag to the Big Show so far but it had been close a few times.Valerie nailed Molly with an elbow to the face only to be swiped to the mat by the Big Show.
Molly made the tag to the Big Show as Valerie desperately tried to make it to her tag team partner,Bubba Ray Dudley.The Big Show grabbed her before she reached Bubba and yanked her to her feet.Valerie kicked backwards and kicked the Big Show straight in the jewels.
The Big Show let go of Valerie and Valerie jumped forward.She tagged Bubba in and rolled out of the ring.That had been far too close for comfort.Valerie steadied her breathing before she got back onto the apron.The Big Show largely overpowered Bubba until the Big Show made the mistake of tagging Molly in and letting her beat on Bubba.Bubba took Molly down and tagged Valerie in.Valerie knocked Molly down as she got up and nailed her with the Last Ride.
1...2...3.
During Bubba and Valerie's celebration the Big Show walked into the ring,hit Bubba with the showstopper and knocked Valerie down.Valerie didn't know how long she was down when suddenly she felt a hand grabbing her throat and pulling her up.She gasped when she saw the table in the middle of the ring
Valerie felt herself getting picked up by her neck but she didn't landThe Big Show picked Valerie up and was about to chokeslam her through the table when Bubba came back into the ring and knocked the Big Show down with a chair saving Valerie from getting wood in the process.
As Bubba Ray took care of the Big Show,Valerie retreated up the ramp,half waiting for Bubba,half wanting to get out of there.Valerie heard the fans scream and she heard some of them warn her.
"Behind you,Valerie behind you" one fan cried.
Valerie turned around and gasped when she saw Chris Benoit walking her way.She quickly made her way back to the ring but stopped when she saw the Big Show getting out of the ring.Bubba was laid out in the middle of the ring.She was now stuck between two men who both wanted to hurt her.
"Valerie,Valerie Calloway is stuck between these two men" J.R cried.
Benoit smirked as he approached Valerie,the little powderpuff wasn't getting away this time.
"I don't think either of them minds hurting her" the King cried.
"Somebody needs to help her" J.R said.
Valerie's eyes widened as she looked at Benoit and the Big Show back and forth.She saw murder in the Big Show's eyes and she saw worse in Benoit's.Oh god.Benoit grabbed her and easily lift her up.
"No,no you bastard" J.R yelled.
Benoit powerbombed Valerie on the steel ramp.She cried in pain as Benoit left and Big Show towered over her.Lawler got very worried.
"No,oh god no.She might have broken her neck,if he picks her up now…" the King said.
The Big Show bent down and grabbed Valerie by the hair.He talked smack to her and went to pick her up to chokeslam her when Triple H came out and stopped him.Triple H hammered the Big Show over and over until finally the Big Show was forced to retreat.
Triple H kneeled down next to Valerie and tried to help her while the para-medics rushed onto the scene. Valerie was put on a stretcher and taken into the back.Valerie felt completely disoriëntated as she saw the heads of people she didn't know around her but as long as Triple H was there she'd be alright.
When Triple H suddenly disappeared from sight Valerie began to panic until her father's face appeared in front of her.
"Daddy" Valerie said.
"Why didn't you keep your promise,babygirl?"
"I didn't do anything to them" Valerie sobbed.
Taker nodded and said:
"You're right,you didn't do anything to them"
He kissed her on the forehead and said:
"Don't worry joyful,I'll get them for you"
Valerie nodded and was placed into the ambulance.As the ambulance was driving out of the parking-lot Shawn Michaels came running into the parking-lot and yelled:
"Where the hell did Triple H go?"
Taker didn't answer,he just looked at the ambulance as it drove away.Shawn yelled after the ambulance:
"Son of a bitch,you coward,get back here"
Taker's eyes grew wide and he attacked Shawn.Shawn lay on the ground in pain as Taker stood over him.
"That's my daughter in that ambulance.You have a little respect,punk" Taker yelled.
The fans cheered for Taker as he left.

Valerie had been rushed to the hospital with Triple H at her side.She was diagnosed to have a dislocated shoulder and a mild concussion,miraculously she sustained no injuries to her back or neck.She was told that she would not have to stop wrestling since her next match wouldn't be until the next Raw but she would have to take it easy.
Valerie was currently in a hospital bed watching what remained of Raw.Valerie watched as Mae Young and Fabulous Moolah came to the ring to promote Moolah's book.Valerie didn't really listen to what Moolah had to say.Valerie had always admired Moolah for her achievements in the wrestling business but she wasn't interested in her book.
Valerie swore loudly when two big men attacked Mae and Moolah and laid them out.Eric Bischoff introduced them as Rosey and Jamal.You bastard.
"I also want to say that I feel very bad about what happened to Valerie Calloway earlier,if Chris Benoit had not already been taken out by the Undertaker,he would be punished for it right now" Bischoff said.
Valerie frowned.My father took Chris Benoit out?.Valerie smiled at the thought and suddenly felt a whole lot better.Her father had taken care of Benoit just like he promised he would,she just wished she could have seen it.The door to Valerie's room opened and a big man came in.
"Hey kiddo,I came to say goodbye" Triple H said.
"You're leaving?" Valerie asked.
"Yeah,I need to get back to Raw"
"Oh right,well don't let me keep you" Valerie said with a smile.
Triple H smiled and kissed Valerie on her forehead.Valerie gasped as she looked at the tv and Triple H turned to the screen.Triple H scowled as he saw the Big Show walking through the hall.His scowl turned into a smile when he saw the Big Show being attacked by Taker.Taker took him down and told him to consider that his last warning.Valerie smiled as well,First Benoit,now the Big Show.Triple H left not long after that and Valerie was left to watch the show by herself.
