Chapter IV – I choose...
She wanted to do something. She wanted to help. But she knew that she alone could never take them.
Who can help me? Who?

She ran as fast as she could. It just struck her. How come I didn't think of him before? She ran into someone and fell backwards. It happened to be Theodore Long.
"What are you doing here, playa?" he asked smiling.
She stood up fast. "I'm gonna ask for help from..." then she remebered something. "HOW THE HELL COULD YOU BOOK A MATCH LIKE THAT? You knew JBL would be at ringside and it would be four against one!" He smirked. "Don't worry playa. I was aware that would happen. That's why I asked someone to go help Eddie if the things got too bad." "Who? Who did you ask?" He leaned and whispered a name in her ear. Her mouth dropped. It was the same person she was asking help for. I think I'll go give him a help myself! "Thanks boss!" Teddy just smiled watching her run towards the ring.

There he was. He was about to enter. "Wait!" "What are you doing here?" "I wanna go in with you. I'll help!" "I don't think you should..." "Oh, come on. I can take care of myself." He sighed. "Okay."

Suddenly, all the lights went off on the ring. The fans knew what was coming, so they stood up cheering. When she was coming in, Cleo had an idea and got closer to the limo. The lights went on to reveal the Undertaker beating the hell out of Orlando Jordan and Cleo standing behind JBL with an evil smile and holding one of the limo's horns as a baseball bat. She hit JBL in the head with enough strength to make him faint. She then went in the ring where both the Bashams were, facing back to her. She tapped on Doug's back and as soon as he turned she kicked him the same way she did with Kurt Angle. He fell and she knocked him out with the horn she was still holding. Danny had been beating Eddie, but the he turned to Cleo for revenge. Eddie saw an opening and was able to make Danny fall from behind before he could get to her. In no time he got the pin and victory. When Eddie and Cleo where about to celebrate the victory, none other than Kurt Angle started runing down the ramp, looking for revenge for last week's show. But the Undertaker stopped him before he could get in the ring and delievered the Tombstone on him.
The Undertaker went into the ring and he and Cleo held Eddie's arms up. But then, someone's entrance theme was heard, someone that nobody was expecting for.
WWE's Chairman, Vince McMahon.
He walked to the ring in his own famous way. He picked up a mic and started talking.
"Congratulations, Eddie. That was a wonderful match." He looked at JBL's Cabinet which was still on the floor and not looking good, and shook his head. Then he went back to his speech. "Now, we all know what great wrestlers Eddie Guerrero and the Undertaker are, but our most recent Superstar, Cleo Guerrero, has caught the atencion from both the fans and the other WWE Superstars." She looked at him surprised. "That's why I've decided to give you a bigger oportunity. That would be go to RAW as a real wrestler and have a shot at the Women's Championship." Cleo's mouth dropped and eyes widdened. All she always dreamed of was to be a real wrestler. "So, I offer you the choice: go to RAW and face Trish Stratus" the fans cheered "or stay here with your brother Eddie. It's your choice." And he gave Cleo the mic.
"Mr. McMahon, I'm very honoured that you made me that offer. Since I was little my dream was always to someday be a great wrestler like my brother was, even though I was a girl." She made a little pause and then continue. "I really love being here with him, giving him support, and I've even made some friends here." She looked at Taker and smiled. Then she looked at Eddie. "I know he likes having me here with him, so he can protect me." She made another pause and faced Mr. McMahon. "For all of this, I choose..."

"You were great sir. You did everything you could to convince her." The Chairman's assinstant said.
"I know. I just don't think Bischoff was very happy with her decision."
"Well, that's what the girl chose, sir. He's gonna have to take it."
"Yes he is."

"Hey, chica. Why the long face?" Eddie and Cleo where riding his lowrider to the hotel after the show.
"I'm still thinking about my decision." She frowned and bit her lip. "Do you think I did the right thing?"
"Of course! This way's better for the both of us." He said happily.
She remembered her own words, sooner that evening...
"For all of this, I choose..."
"...to go to RAW." She turned to Eddie and said "I always remember you saying I should do everything to acomplish my dreams and goals, so this is what I have to do now."
After that, Eddie hadt smiled and hugged her, and the Undertaker had said she made the right choice and congratulate her.
But now she was thinking to herself about going to RAW. I'll be far from Eddie, and I don't have any friends there. I know myself and I know I'm gonna get into trouble.
"Come on, cheer up! You'll be able to wrestle as you always wanted to and I won't have to get myself into matches like tonight's." He laughed, making her smirk. "You won't be all alone there." He said, like he was reading her mind. "You've got Chris Benoit!" she gasped. How could she forget Uncle Chris was on RAW? He was one of Eddie's best and closest friends, so they all treated him like a member of the family. "Don't worry, chica. You'll do fine and make a lot of friends right away." She smiled and felt happier. She had done the right thing. "You're right. RAW is gonna be great!"
