Chapter 53: The Calvary in Columbus
Smackdown was in Columbus, Ohio and Jeff was teaming up with Triple H against MVP and the Brian Kendrick. Also, that day happened to be Rochelle's 27th birthday.
"Eddie's Angels" were in their locker room discussing the details of going out for Rochelle's birthday until Ulysses came in the locker room with his bags, a suit, a bouquet of violets, and chocolate candy.
"Hey, girls," Ulysses said as the Angels looked at him.
"Ulysses, what are those?" Rochelle said.
"Looks like flowers, candy, and a suit maybe," Nicole said.
"Ulysses, what are you doing?" Amanda said.
"What?" Ulysses said. "Am I supposes to impress this girl when I meet her?"
Then the Angels looked at each other puzzled.
"Sit down, big guy," Brittany said.
Then the Angels walked over to Ulysses, took his stuff, and sat him down on the couch.
"First rule: be yourself," Rochelle said. "Some women are attracted to guys who see them as sometime to protect them and defend them. You've done such a good job with us and you don't need all this to be cuddly and all that."
"Well, if you were gonna ask this secret admirer on a date," Nicole said, "flowers first, minus the candy, suit second."
"Okay," Ulysses said. "What's next?"
"Did she ever mentioned where she was gonna meet you?" Amanda said.
"No, she didn't."
"Well, she did a good job giving you presents and clues without being seen," Brittany said, "so maybe she'll meet you here in our locker room."
"Okay, alright."
"You're not nervous, are you?" Rochelle said.
"No, why would I be nervous?"
"Because you're sweating a little," Nicole said.
"No, I am not."
"Don't worry, Ulysses," Amanda said. "I know how you feel."
"When, Amanda?" Nicole said. "I don't think you still told Shad."
"Okay! I'll tell him tonight when we go out for Rochelle's birthday."
"Oh, yeah," Ulysses said. "Happy birthday, Rochelle."
"Thank you," Rochelle said.
Then Smackdown was on and Vickie Guerrero was in her office with Chavo.
"Tell me again what the Undertaker told you," Vickie said.
"The Undertaker……." Chavo said as he hyperventilated. "He……he had his hands around my neck. Look, I could feel his hands getting tighter and tighter around my neck……I couldn't breathe. Vickie, I couldn't breathe. I felt like……I felt like my head was gonna pop. I thought I was gonna pass out, Vickie, that……but he let go. The Undertaker let go because he wanted me to be a messenger, Vickie. He wanted to come here tonight and be a messenger and tell you……"
"Tell me what, Chavo?"
"That……that tonight……he's coming for you. He's coming for you, Vickie. I gotta go."
"No, no, no, no, no, you stay right here. Not that he's going to, Chavo. Before the Undertaker gets to me, he's gonna get to you. Now, now, you can take care of this; you need to go get the one man to prevent all of this, the Big Show. Go get him and come right back."
Then Chavo walked out of Vickie's office as Jeff and Brittany walked in and Vickie turned her head.
"Can I help you, Jeff?" Vickie said.
"Vickie, I don't care if it's sooner or later," Jeff said, "but I need a match with Vladimir Kozlov."
"I'm gonna tell you the same thing that I told Triple H earlier today. The two of you need to concentrate on your championship match at No Mercy as well as your tag team match tonight. Now get out of my office."
Then Big Show then walked in with Chavo and he & Jeff had a brief staredown before Jeff and Brittany walked out of Vickie's office and he put his arm around Vickie.

Later, Ulysses was breathing hard waiting patiently in "Eddie's Angels'" locker room for his secret admirer and then a few minutes later, there was a knock at the door. Ulysses got up from the couch with the flowers in his hand and then he took a deep breath and said,
"Come in."

"Yes, it's me," Buffy said nodding her head.

"Thank you," Buffy said as she smiled.
Then the two leaned towards each other and kissed.
A little later, it was time for the Divas' match which was Christina Alexis versus Maryse. Maryse's entrance theme played and she came out from the curtain.
"The following is a Divas' match scheduled for one fall," Justin Roberts announced. "Introducing first from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, Maryse."

"And her opponent being accompanied by Jasmine Morgan and Destiny, representing the Angelic Coalition from Houston, Texas, Christina Alexis," Justin announced.

A little later, Big Show's entrance theme played and the pyro went off as he came out from the curtain with Vickie and Chavo following him. The three walked down the ramp and got into the ring and Vickie asked for the microphone.
"Excuse me!" Vickie said. "I said excuse me! Where are you, Undertaker? All of us are waiting for you. You see, I should have never reinstated you to begin with and "Eddie's Angels" are a bigger problem to deal with since they won't leave. You physically and mentally obliterated my husband, Edge, you swore, you that you will take my soul; you didn't take anything. Let's take a look."
Then the Titantron showed the clip of Unforgiven when the Big Show attacked the Undertaker and Vickie slapped him and spit in his face.
"Gosh, Undertaker, are you having second thoughts because I still don't see you," Vickie said as she laughed.
"I don't think this is such a good idea," Chavo said as the Big Show grabbed the microphone.
"Hold on, hold on," the Big Show said, "Undertaker, everyone is waiting for you to come out here and save the day. It's not gonna happen and I'll tell you why. You see, Undertaker has lost his nerve; the Undertaker's been humbled. I crushed the Undertaker's spirit, I broke his jaw and I have destroyed the myth of the Undertaker."
Then the lights went out and when they came back on a few seconds later, Chavo was missing. Vickie and the Big Show looked around and the Big Show asked Vickie, "Where's Chavo?" Then the Titantron showed on the big screen that the Undertaker had Chavo by the throat.
"Please go help him," Vickie said as the Big Show ran out of the ring. "Hurry! Hurry!"
Undertaker tossed Chavo around the room, throwing him into the couch and then flipping the couch over and knocking the lamp over and he stood on Chavo's throat. Then the video began to crackle and then went black as Vickie stood alone in the ring.
Then the Undertaker's entrance theme played as the lights went out again and when they came back on, The Undertaker and "Eddie's Angels" were standing in the ring in front and behind Vickie. She backed away and turned around slowly and immediately began crying as the Undertaker stared her down to the corner and blocked her. Then he grabbed her by the throat as she shrieked, "No!" and then the Undertaker gave her a Tombstone piledriver. The Undertaker kneeled over her as "Eddie's Angels" stood over Vickie with a smile and the lights flickered blue as Smackdown came to a close.
