 chapter 1

    Rumble Rock was the fifth planet of the main solar system of the Singlarr galaxy. It was a planet that kept most of its battles in one of two places, either in the ring or a cage. It had a moderate level of technology that still used gasoline, as a primary power source. This world loved all forms of combat sports, especially pro wrestling and MMA.

    Inside one rundown gym laid a sixth sided cage that was covered in rust and broken metal. Next to it was a ratty wrestling ring. The action was taking place inside the cage, with two opponents ready to fight inside the cage.

    One of the fighters was both shirtless and barefooted, wearing only a long pair of fighting trunks. The shorts were black with white trim, covered in stains developed over many years of use. This man had a beer gut and a nasty looking neck beard that was greasier than motor oil. This slob, who was five foot ten inches, while weighing three hundred pounds of pure whale blubber.

    The other fighter was six-foot inches, that weighed just over one hundred and eighty-five pounds. The masked fighter was wearing a gold-colored mask that had a black phoenix pattern over his face. Eye holes, nose hole, and a mouth opening were the only openings on the mask. The mysterious man was wearing some sort of martial arts shoes that looked like thin closed back black slippers. He was wearing opened fingered MMA gloves.

    The announcer yells, "Here is the beer bruiser! He has a fighting record of thirteen wins, one hundred losses, and sixty-seven draws!"

    The fat man raises his arm, about knocking out the nearby ref with his body order.

    The announcer yells, "Here is the new local sensation that goes by the name of Humble Rumble!"

    The crowd of over one hundred jump to their feet in excitement. They were happy to see the

    masked warrior.

    The announcer yells, "He has an amazing fighting record of 120 wins,

    0 losses and 0 draws.¡±

    Humble Rumble jumped unto the top of the battered cage, with his arms raised up above his head. The masked fighter then jumped back down to the ground.

    The referee got in between the two fighters, as the announcer climbed out of the cage. The door was locked from the outside.

    The bell has rung and it was on.

    Rumble circled around the sluggish fighter, nicking him in the shins. Bruiser could do little

    to protect himself from Humble¡¯s attacks. Both of the man pig¡¯s shins were black and blue, as Bruiser could hardly move.

    The masked warrior did a sweeping kick to the fat man¡¯s legs, which knocked Bruiser down to the mat. Rumble put the slob into a leg lock and immediately forced him to tap or have his legs broken.

    The referee saw that Bruiser was tapping to get free of the leg lock and stopped the match.

    The ref put up Humble Rumble¡¯s hand up into the air. The announcer pulled a wired microphone into the cage and tried to talk to the winner. But Rumble wouldn¡¯t have it and walked into the back.

    Two men went into the cage with a filthy cloth stretcher and rolled the Bruiser unto it. The supposed helpers bumped the screaming loser into the sides of the metal door. The men paid no heed to man''s complaints and continued to carry him into the back. The cloth stretcher breaks causing the huge man to hit the ground on the back of his head, thus knocking out the already injured man. The men left the bruiser for dead and continued into one of the back rooms.

    Rumble head back into the locker room and saw some thugs trying to break into his locker.

    He finally broke his silence, "Fellas, I got the key with me if you want to get inside it."

    The thieves were shocked that the man had caught them in the act of trying to rob Rumble.

    Humble said very little and he never took off his mask or even showered in the locker room. He

    wanted to keep his identity secret to all of the boys in the back.

    This business was not an affiliate of the fighting/ wrestling commission and wasn''t any better

    than a backyard promotion. The organization was very sketchy in its operation, in which that was apparent to everybody involved.

    The four thieves were ready to strike Rumble, even to point of killing him to hide their crime.

    The duo rushed at him with a crowbar and a screwdriver.

    Humble dodged the assault and punched the first thug in his Adam''s apple. The thief grabs his throat, as the fighter does a spinning back fist to the hurting thug.

    The thief falls to the ground, like a sack of potatoes.

    The remaining thief with a crowbar hit the fighter in his left blocking arm.

    Rumble kicked the thug in the left side of his head with his right leg.

    The thug fell to the ground out, like a light.

    Rumble soccer kicked both men in their heads to make sure that they were out. He put both men on top of them in a double armbar and snapped both of their right arms. He did the same to the attempted thieves'' left arms.

    Rumble spoke, "Good luck, trying to rob me again with your arms broken and your heads split open. Try to steal from me will ya!"

    The masked fighter yelled, "You suckers were just gonna let these punks rob from me and not do anything about it? Where is the supposed fraternity among the boys? What a crock of bull crap!"

    The rest of the boys in the locker rooms were frozen as if they were statues.

    #

    Rumble robbed all of the fallen thieves'' money. He put the bloody money in the shower and

    washed it clean of blood. Then, he put all the wet money into a gym bag, after he counted it. It came out to be over thirty thousand dollars.

    Rumble walked over to the promoter''s office to get his pay. He opened the door with a hospital

    mask over his mouth and nose, along with a pair of goggles over his eyes. Weed smoke poured out of the office and into the hallway. The room was full of all sorts of vile acts with an aged man sitting behind his desk, just watching the show.

    Rumble spoke, "I am here to get today''s pay and I won all of my matches, so don''t try to screw me. I am unto you and your cheating ways!"

    The promoter handed Humble a small wad of cash.

    Humble spoke, "Quit screwing around and give me all my money!"

    The masked man saw that the boss was trying to do something untoward him, so Rumble jumped unto the top of the desk.

    A shotgun had been built into the wooden desk went off and hit the space where Rumble was once standing.

    It was on, as Rumble punched the boss in the face and strangled him to death with his tie. He would not kill unless to save his own life.

    Luckily, the rest of the people in the office were too high and/or drunk to comprehend what had just occurred.

    Rumble stripped the promoter''s clothes and said, "He wants you all to screw him too, he is too jealous of you all for having a bigger dick than his two-inch pecker."

    Humble had taken a key from the dead man¡¯s pocket and robbed the man¡¯s safe of all it¡¯s money. He had collected over three hundred thousand dollars.

    Rumble left the gym forever as the drug-filled orgy within the dead promoter''s office had set the place on fire.

    Humble was walking outside the burning gym with his street clothes(blue genes, tennis shoes,

    and a hoodie covering up his wrestling mask. He was walking over to the nearby subway to travel back

    home with his gym bag full of his gear and over one hundred thousand dollars. He was trying to act

    naturally as he had done every night he fought or wrestling, but that was impossible this night.

    There were five rough looking thugs pulling out knives, and broken beer bottles.

    The first thug spoke while playing with his switchblade, "My nigga, you need to be given us your racks upon racks!"

    The rest of the thugs started to laugh at the fellow thug¡¯s comment.

    Rumble paid them no heed as he stood there solemn-faced with the gym bag still in his right hand.

    Humble spoke, "I had killed way too many people already today. Five more dead bodies will be like nothing to me! Just walk away will you still can.

    The second thug spoke, "This nigga be tripping balls!"

    Rumble dropped the gym bag down to the ground, as he put both of his gloved hand into his hoodie pockets to get something out.

    He threw two hidden throwing knives at the first two thugs¡¯ necks. They fell to the ground

    clutching their throats.

    The other three punks raced towards the would-be hero.

    The third thug slammed down a broken beer bottle towards Humble, but it was for naught.

    Rumble caught the thug by his elbow and snapped it the opposite direction of where it should be bending. He then gave the third thug a spinning back fist in the jaw.

    The thug fell down to the ground out of a light, as Rumble stomped his neck into oblivion.

    The two remaining thugs got nervous and started to run away when Humble did a double dropkick to each of the attackers'' heads. He then stomped both men in the neck, breaking both of their spines cleanly in two.

    Rumble ripped his two knives out of the fallen thugs and into an empty plastic bag. This was

    after he wiped both of the bladed weapons off. He put one of the knives into a nearby river and the other was thrown into the window of an abandoned house. This place was a den of crack heads and never do wells, so he did not worry about somebody finding it, and the other weapon was in the fifth

    worst polluted river in the world. So, there would be little risk of people diving into it, to find it.

    Rumble thought, "I had killed before many a time to protect myself, but this day will haunt me forever! I know that I am doing the wrong thing for the right reason."

    #

    The rest of the trip home was without incident and arrived home early the next morning. He walked into the front room to find a middle-aged people sitting restlessly on a love seat.

    The man stood to his feet and hug Rumble in a tender embrace.

    The older man spoke, "Where have you gone again, son? You have been gone for weeks."

    The woman was looking at the two men like she had been hit by a semi-truck.

    Rumble spoke,¡± Let me put some things and I will tell you everything you want to know.¡±

    The mother spoke, "I hope that he is not selling drugs like your brother did before he got sent to prison."

    Rumble had been in his room with the door locked behind him going through the hidden room he had made from the dead space behind his closet to hide his sports gear and all the money that he had earned over the last four years. He put up his fighting gear and put all of his money into five gym bags of various sizes. He locked the door to the hidden room. Humble shut the closet door and unlocked his bedroom door and walked back into the front room.

    The father spoke, "What on Rumble Rock, do you got inside all those bags?"

    Rumble spoke with a smile, "Clear the office table and I will show you."

    The parents did as they were asked and took everything off the small table.

    Humble put four of the gym bags down and open it up the remaining bag in his hands. He pours

    out the entire contents of the bag unto the table and was it full of sealed bags of dollar bills.

    The couple''s eyes about jumped out of their skulls, as he opened up four more bags filled with sealed bags. The last bag was full of loose cash that he acquired. The coffee table was completely

    covered in money to the point that couldn¡¯t even see the table anymore.

    Mom spoke, "I hope that this is not dirty money."

    Rumble spoke, "No, I washed it before coming back home."

    Dad spoke, "I hope that you are not in uncle Buck''s line of work."

    Humble spoke, "No, I just did a lot of freelance work in the four state area. I just used what I knew to earn all of this."

    He wasn¡¯t lying outright, but just omitting to what skills he had been using.

    Humble Rumble spoke, "I was gone so often after school because I working to get you two out of debt. We had racked up a lot of medical bills, due to Mom''s cancer. We just need to make a ration of decently sized payments every week to get out of the hole. Do this and you hopefully won''t bring any attention to us that we are wealthy again.

    The family of three were in a group hug when Rumble''s belly growled.

    He spoke," I guess that I am just hungry for a pot of good chili.

    The old couple smiled at the sound of the rumbling belly.

    #

    Rumble took his folks to their favorite oriental buffet after they had a payment to all of their bill holders.

    Anna spoke, "I thought that you wanted a pot of chili?"

    Rumble spoke, "I do, but that is for supper, but this is only lunch. Plus, it is only ten am. We have plenty of time until then to get some groceries, take them home, and put on some dinner. I have not eaten, like this for several months. It is on me, so put back those wallets back up. We are in good standing with our funds, even after making payments to keep us out of the bill collectors'' call lists. So eat up, mom and dad, it is my treat."

    James spoke, "I know that you were doing paid internships in both physical therapy and counseling. You have a double master already, so you have fairly good wages, despite your age, You have worked four years already, towards your future careers. I don''t know how you are to do two full-time jobs at once, but I believe in you. So, where did you go to do all your freelancing gigs?"

    Rumble was taken back by the question as if he was not ready to answer it.

    He said, "You know that a was an athlete in both high school and college. I have four more years to compete in college sports. I have finished the National College league four-year competition limit and I have the right to compete for more four years in another college league. I have been accepted into the rival National College Association just across the city."

    James spoke, "That is great, but you didn''t answer the question.''

    Rumble spoke, "I had said that to tell you that I have been offering my services as a therapist and counseling to the smaller MMA and Wrestling promotions. I had made a lot of money since I am an athlete that can better suit other athletes'' needs. That makes I had been doing for the last four years."

    Anna spoke, "That is great, honey. Will they transfer all of your credits?"

    Rumble spoke, "They had already agreed to accept every single one of my credits, and set me to the participate programs that I had been in the other college. I had made sure that it was

    all primped and proper.¡±

    The parents seem pleased with the answer since Humble had always gotten a 4.0 GPA while at

    college.

    Rumble was grabbing up all of the many plates from the table to stake them up. He had forgotten that he was using the same arm that he had blocked the thief¡¯s crowbar. He struggled to move the plates for a second, while with a grimace on his face.

    Anna spoke, "What is wrong?"

    Rumble forced a smile on his face.

    ¡°I am just sore and tired from all my adventures.¡±

    James spoke, "Let''s take you home and we will take care of grocery shopping."

    Rumble spoke, "No, I can survive some grocery shopping and I will rest them."

    #

    They spent the next two hours grocery shopping two large freezers full of food, to go along with a full pantry. Rumble and his parents put all of it and the teen was stumbling around like he was dead drunk.

    James grabbed his son by his side and put him to bed in his room. He fell asleep with his clothes

    still on.

    Anna spoke, "Dear, is he okay?"

    James spoke, "I think so. I know that he overworked himself to pay for nearly all of the bills that we had spent to treat your cancer. We lost your insurance when you lost your job at the hospital. He had taken on all the responsibility of your treatment."

    Anna sat down on the coach, with tears in her tired eyes.

    ¡°James, he is only sixteen years old and he must have outworked the two of us at our best. I just know that he did. I am so proud and angry at him, at the same time. I don''t know whether to kiss him

    or beat his ass.¡±

    James spoke, "He will be ahead of the curve in all that he does if he works as he has. Yet, he

    needs to pace himself better. A candle that burns at both ends burns out quickly. Honey go rest in our bedroom and I will get dinner ready.¡±

    #

    It was past eight PM and Rumble had not stirred awake, so the couple decided to eat without

    him. They were just starting to eat when their sun stumbled out of the room while having a mush mouth.

    He was sitting at the table, as he struggled to make a bowl of chili. He finally got it together and ate an entire serving bowl of chili as if was nothing. If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

    Then something terrible happened.

    Rumble passed out unto the dining room floor.

    Anna screamed out bloody terror, as James rushed over to their son.

    James and Anna check his vital signs, and he was struggling to breathe normally.

    The mother called 911 and told where they lived.

    ¡°I can¡¯t get my son to respond and his breathing is very poor. He has been in pain all day, along looking pale all day. My husband is trying to treat him the best he can, but get here quick!¡±

    The 911 operator spoke, "Keep on the line and stay calm so that you don''t need care as well. An ambulance is on the way and will be there in less than five minutes. Wait at the front door to make sure that they get to the right house. This will make them get to your son quicker."

    It was the longest five minutes of their lives, while they waited for the ambulance to arrive.

    The EMTs rushed through the front door and into the dining room. The couple were explaining

    what had happened.

    James spoke, "Anna goes with the boy and I will follow behind in the van.

    It took all James could do was to keep calm, and not break the speed limit. He knew that he had to be there for his son and not go to jail instead.

    Rumble was rushed into the ER, while the nursing staff ripped his shirt off with a pair of scissors. The lad was wrapped up as if it was a ten-thousand-year-old mummy. The staff carefully cut through the wrapping and they were appalled at what they saw.

    Rumble was covered in bruises, cuts, and sorts of lacerations. The staff had never seen a person come into the ER with such wounds throughout their entire carrier. It was all the more jarring that the wounds were on a minor, like him. The medical staff was trained to expect that the guardians were the cause of the injuries of a child.

    James was finally allowed into the ER to check up on his son.

    The doctor took the parents to the nearby consultation room to update them on Rumble¡¯s condition.

    The doctor spoke, "My name is Dr. Henry and your son is stable. But we are at a loss to explain the cause of his wounds. Do you have something that you need to share?"

    James was pissed at the comment.

    ¡°We have never hit our son, besides a few spankings as a kid. He was a good kid, so that was a very rare occurrence. We had never left a mark on him or used an object to punish Rumble."

    Anna spoke, "Rumble takes part in all sorts of combat sports while wearing a full body suit. We never saw anything, but his neck up and his hands. His hands were wrapped up in gauze and tape more than half the time. He was such a modest boy and didn''t want to wear fighting trunks or a wrestling singlet. He had us write a letter to his coaches that it was against his religion to show his body off. We go to church, but we never held him to such standards. Yet, we did as he asked."

    Dr. Henry still wasn''t convinced as he spoke, "All the sports federations would never allow such injuries to go on under their watch."

    James spoke, "The boy had been working all sorts of freelance work across the four state area to

    help pay for his mom''s cancer treatment. We had lost our insurance when Anna had lost her job. I am

    a contractor by trade and are paid by the job. I receive no such benefits.¡¯

    Dr. Henry had a look of confusion on his face.

    ¡°Why would let a minor to travel such a far distance for work.¡±

    Anna spoke, "The boy was allowed to do what he wanted for as long as he had good grades and was at good standings at all his internships. He never was into trouble before this. He must have felt that he had to support his sick mother. James has allowed his business to slide into disarray while caring for me. He is not bringing in half the money that he was earning before my illness."

    James had a veil of tears over his eyes.

    ¡°He was always a private individual and never had a lot of friends. It wasn¡¯t that he couldn¡¯t have them, better yet he didn¡¯t desire them. He had always rebelled, when he had forced the issue. So, we were glad that he was out and about.¡¯

    Dr. Henry saw that the parents were sincere,

    "I was going to call in child protective services, but I feel that isn''t needed here. We have gotten

    your son stable, but we are not out of the woods yet. He had suffered tremendous for the last few years, and he will probably carry those scars for the rest of his life. I am sorry that you had to find your son in such a state. He must be in nearby outlaw fighting promotions under some sort of alias. The major

    promotions only allow eighteen years and up to compete.¡±

    James spoke, "So what are you going to do with our son?"

    We are going to send him to the children''s wound care unit here at the hospital. You should be able to see him in about one hour or so. We are going to keep him in an induced coma to ensure that he doesn''t hurt himself any further. His body will take months, if not years to fully heal. I suggest that you put safeguards in place that he never does such a thing again until he is an adult."

    Anna spoke, "We have got his phone with us and he never puts a password on his phone. We

    will go through his rooms to find out what he was doing.¡±

    Dr. Henry spoke, "I suggest that when he is released to make him check in throughout the day and keep an active GPS on his phone. We will give some pamphlets to how to do this and other services to do this. From what you are telling me, he is a good son. He has just gotten himself into a terrible situation. I would inform his school of what he had been doing and to keep a watch for any further injuries. He could be kicked out of school for his actions here today, but I will put in a good word to whatever school that he is a good person, with good intentions."

    James spoke," He is doing the wrong thing for the right reason, as I had taught him. I didn''t think that he takes it to such a degree. It was partly my fault that he had hurt himself.''

    Both of the parents were crying abundantly, as the harden ER doctor was moved by the display of sorrow. Henry, along with other professionals that deal with people that are in critical condition, attempt to not allow themselves to become emotional. They are hired to be strong and care for people that may die, despite all the care they might be given. But sometimes that wasn¡¯t possible, and this was one such time.

    Henry spoke, "Do you need any onsite counseling and/ or Chaplin visit?"

    Anna spoke, "That won''t be necessary, but we just need some time alone.

    James started going through his son''s smartphone and sees nothing strange at first. Anna goes through the phone and finds some porn folders. But that was normal for a teenager to be looking at such things. There was nothing abnormal in his pictures, yet just a lot of big boobs and fat asses. The two wouldn''t confront Rumble on this issue since they weren''t puritans when it came to sexuality. Humble never brought girls home and they were glad, since he was only a sixteen year old, while being in

    the college setting.¡±

    Anna spoke, "I can''t find out what he was up to and only find a series of numbers. M 121-0-0 and W 1,200-0-0."

    James spoke, "That is numbers used as a fighting record! He has been in over thirteen hundred matches!"

    Anna spoke, "Holy Shit! He gives the dates for every match and other information. He did all those matches in the four years I had been getting cancer treatment."

    James spoke, "Who would allow him to start fighting, as a mere twelve-year-old?"

    Anna spoke," I had seen pictures of someone under a mask and full body jumpsuit. It has to be him. He has hundreds of bookmarks of somebody going by the name Humble Rumble."

    James spoke, "Get a picture of this dude and our son at one of his sports meets."

    Anna did as she was told and had the two pictures of them at the profile view.

    James spoke, "It is him all right! That is his alter ego! He is this Humble Rumble.

    #

    One month goes by and Rumble is allowed to go home under the care of his parents.

    He was completely silent on the way home since he was in big trouble.

    James spoke, "We need an answer from you, young man to what made you think that you had to fight for a living to care your mother? I still make close to six figures, despite only working part time! Answer me!"

    Rumble wouldn¡¯t respond.

    Anna spoke, "Your father is asking a question, young man!"

    James spoke, "Don''t make me get out of the car and beat your ass!"

    Rumble laughed at his father¡¯s threat.

    James spoke, "What is so damn funny boy?"

    Humble spoke, "I would beat you to death if you would try me!"

    James spoke, "That is it, boy, I am going to get out of this care and knock some sense into your ass."

    Anna screamed, "James, stop it!"

    The father and son got out of the car and prepared to battle each other. Rumble had lost thirty pounds of muscle while in the hospital. He was a middleweight at sixteen years old (one hundred and eighty-five pounds).

    Rumble went into his fighting stance and his father rushed him on the side of a highway.

    James had his arms pinned between their bodies, so Rumble took advantage of his father predicament.

    James was given a belly to belly suplex and thrown over his son''s head and unto the windshield of the SUV. The father broke the windshield of the vehicle, as the lands on the glass.

    Anna yelled, "You two are being ridiculous and get in the car before the police show up to arrest you both!"

    Rumble did as he was told and gotten into the back seat behind the driver¡¯s seat. Anna helped her husband off the hood of the SUV. She put him in the passenger seat, while she drove the rest of the way home.

    Anna was pissed off beyond belief.

    ¡°Who do you think that you are to beat up your father, like that?¡±

    Rumble spoke, "I know that you spied on my phone and know my fighting record. I was the undisputed open weight champion throughout all the indy feds in the four state area. I beat up super heavyweights as if they were babies. You think that a normal man is going to beat me barehanded?"

    Anna knew that her son was right since some of rumble''s matches were recorded with phone cameras. He was a monster both in the ring and cage. He was without a peer in the outlaw promotions.

    James spoke, "You need to leave my house and get emancipated!"

    Anna spoke, "Stop it!"

    Rumble spoke, "If he doesn''t want me anymore, then take me to the courthouse. Let''s get this

    matter done today!"

    James spoke, "Fine, have it your way!"

    Anna was forced out of the driver seat, as James drove to the courthouse. They were seen by a Judge and Rumble was found able to care for himself. He made around thirty thousand a year from his paid internships. He had spent the money from the college jobs so he could get a pretty decent place.

    #

    Rumble empty out his closet and put them in four gym bags and walked out of the house.

    Anna spoke, "Please don''t go! We can work it out!"

    Neither James or Rumble responded to anybody.

    Anna was crying in tears, as she tried to grab her son in a vain attempt to stop him. Rumble kept

    walking with his luggage.

    Eventually, She had to let go of her son.

    Anna cried for the rest of the day and into the night.

    She broke the silence.

    "I told you that we shouldn''t allow him to compete in those violent combat sports."

    James refused to say anything.

    Rumble had wanted to compete in sports since he was four years old. He took part in all sorts of little league combat sports that relied on scoring points to win. He was city champ, then district champ, state champion after that. He soon becomes the national champion at every sport he took part in.

    Nobody lasted five minutes against Rumble, who appeared to not be even trying. Humble never

    bragged about his achievements. It was like the competition was just wasting his time.

    #

    It was four years later, and Rumble had to complete his three upper graduate degrees while

    participating in college sports for another four years. He was now a super light heavyweight (two

    hundred and twenty pounds) at six feet two inches. This was without any supplementation of any kind, beyond basic multivitamins."

    Rumble obtains two Ph.D.''s in physical therapy and counseling psychology, to go along with a master in business management. He was also certified as a strength and conditioning coach.

    It was the night of his graduation, he thought that he saw his parents. He didn''t pay any heed to it since he had nothing to do with his family after being emancipated. He wouldn''t put any more effort into his disavowed family. He missed four years of holidays and family reunions.

    Rumble was walking out of the building and opening his large work van. He took off his cap and gown and put them into a locked toolbox. This van was used to travel across the nation of over four hundred thousand people to compete in his college sports, along with his indy pro wrestling and MMA promotions. Rumble was the supreme world champion throughout every federation he took part in.

    He was now 240-0-0 in MMA and 2,400-0-0 in wrestling. He had nobody in the last eight years that made him go the distance even once the last four years. Now that he was no longer in college sports, he could use all the supplements that he had wanted and he plans to do so.

    He hears a voice saying, "Son, is that you?"

    He paid no heed to the voice and drove off to his favorite steak house to eat a king''s feast. He is led to his seat by a well-dressed waiter and is given some soda to drink.

    Rumble spoke, "Steve, I think that I will have the usual this time, along with the hottest boneless wings that you got."

    The waiter did as he was told and went off to present the order to the staff.

    Rumble had his laptop out, making his application to the two major combat feds in his local four-state area.

    He thought, "I am done with the outlaws'' promotions! It is time to fight for real in the national territories. I have gotten accepted by Midwest combat federation and Gateway combat sports will most likely do the same."

    Two people seated at Rumble''s table to his disdain.

    Rumble spoke, "Don''t you see me seating here? I have got to eat dinner before I sat out upon the road?"

    The two people were not moving, which angered the young man.

    Rumble jumped to his feet and was prepared to fight when he finally saw who was seated at his table.

    It was his parents, James and Anna!¡±

    They were both crying to see their son after four long years.

    Humble had lost all the words that could''ve come out of his mouth.

    His folks ran over to his side and held him in their aged arms.

    Rumble started to cry as well and returned the embrace. All the years of hate and resentment vanished all away in mere seconds.

    Humble spoke, "How did you find me?"

    Anna spoke, "We had tried to stop you at the college parking lot, but you wouldn''t respond to anything we told you. So we followed all the way here."

    Rumble spoke, "I didn''t hear you since I had lost in my own little world for the last few years."

    Humble gestured for Steve to come over to the table.

    The waiter spoke, "Sir, what do you need?"

    Rumble spoke, "This couple are my folks and get them whatever they want and ask the cook to

    a time my meal to come out with theirs."

    The waiter spoke, "I am pleased to meet you after hearing so much about you two."

    The couple was surprised that Rumble had thought of them while being apart.

    Steve had given James and Anna each a menu and they had decided to what they had wanted within minutes. Anna got fish, while James got a steak.

    The trio was eagerly waiting for their meals.

    Anna spoke, "You had grown into a strapping young man, son.

    Rumble spoke, "The funny thing is that both of my colleges wouldn''t even let me take a simple protein shake the whole time I fought in college. I am still considered a smaller man both in wrestling and MMA. The nation is a land of giants, but I am considered the best when it comes to pure skill, aerial moves, and athletic prowess. The only things I lack as an athlete are overwhelming strength and mic skills. I had made all my money, without those two things. I hope that I can get them, while I join the major territories. Oh, what about you two?"

    Anna spoke, "My cancer has been gone for the last three years and I am district manager over the local hospital system. I am better off than I ever was. Your father has been working on million dollar homes for the last two years."

    Rumble spoke, "I know that since he had built my home just last year.

    James spoke, "What house was that?"

    Humble spoke, "The one with the giant pool, full-sized work out room and the theater room.

    Anna spoke, "You knew that James built your house, yet you did nothing about it?"

    James spoke, "You were the one who had us put all the house together with the secret rooms.''

    Rumble spoke, "I was the one who did that. I paid you almost twice what the house was worth."

    James spoke, "That was a two million dollar house fully furnished easy. Where did you get all

    that kind of money?" I made more than two million dollars just by competing around the national

    outlaw combat feds, and almost more in PPV buys and merchandise. I am among the richest athletes on

    the indy circuit. That is not counting the money I had earned in my open professions and investments.¡±

    Anna spoke, "You had become more successful than I had ever hoped you to be. What about your love life?"

    Rumble smirked.

    ¡°You could grab ten girls off the back of the line to my hotel room and I wouldn''t notice they were even gone."

    James spoke, "So you''re a player, huh?"

    Anna looked disappointingly at her son.

    Rumble spoke, "I don''t waste money on hotels, so I limit my booty calls most of the time."

    Anna spoke, "So, do you never plan to give us grandchildren?"

    James spoke, "He has to be too busy to care for a child."

    Rumble spoke, "I am not resistant to getting married, I just hadn''t found one that satisfied me

    beyond mere carnality.¡±

    James spoke, "I am proud of you and what you have become. I am sorry that we weren''t supportive of your life choices."

    Rumble spoke, "It is no big deal now that we are back together. I will show my house, but I have

    gotten a much-needed debut to attend to."

    Anna spoke, "Can we see your debut? We are on vacation because we were plum determined to find you. We have three weeks off since we had saved them up for just such of an occasion."

    Rumble spoke, "On one condition, I will allow it."

    James spoke, "What''s that?"

    Humble spoke, "You mustn''t break kayfabe by acknowledging me as your son. I have kept my

    name and face secret for eight years to everyone I know but you two. I will tow the car behind the van

    until thirty minutes out and then we will separate. I have two tickets with me in case I had run into you

    after graduation. A masked wrestler makes a boatload of money from just masks sells. I don''t want to hurt my bottom line. Is that clear?"

    The couple agreed to those conditions and traveled more than one hundred miles that same night, while Rumble slept on a king-sized mattress in the back of his van. James and Anna were given money to stay at the most expensive hotel in the city. Rumble except for his house and his work expenses lived very frugally. He had a home paid for at only twenty years old, with a decent sized nest egg set aside when he has to retire from competing.

    #

    It was an early Saturday when the family left for the nearby arena that seated over thirty-five hundred people. Rumble had been in some bigger arenas, but not very often. He has started at a "C"

    a town that was over guys on the way or the way down. The promotions had three different circuits that each went on for two hundred events a year. The mid-tier and secondary champions were the b team, while the world champions were on the "A" team.

    Rumble would make a little more than he had on the indy circuit, while at Midwest combat federation and Gateway combat sports¡¯ c teams.¡± He had been called by the second promotion, while on the road, and was able to digitally sign a contract, while James drove the van.

    Midwest combat federation (MCF) mainly ran shows on the west side of the four state area, while Gateway combat sports (GCS) was on the east side.

    Rumble would debut in a dark match that typically didn''t air on TV or on the main part of the PPV. He didn''t care who was facing, he just knew that he was going to beat them as quickly as possible.

    He was paid the same no matter if he worked two minutes or two hours.

    Rumble came out to generic music and facing a jobber for an opponent.

    He did not waste any time and kicked the wrestler in the side of the head. Knocking him out

    instantly, causing him to fall on his back.

    Humble put a foot on his fallen foe and gave the most nonchalant pin that had ever been performed. He was victorious, yet he still wasn¡¯t satisfied. He told the announcer to get more people for him to beat. He was given as he had requested.

    He beat four more foes in a similar fashion.

    #

    That afternoon he fought in a cage against two opponents. MMA wasn''t known for handicap matches, but rumble made the promotion make an exception.

    The two fighters charged the masked fighter with fists flaring.

    Rumble jumped vertically backward to the top of the cage and carried out a double head stomp to his foes.

    The foes fell to the ground, while Rumble curb stomp the duo into oblivion

    The ref had no choice but to stop the match. He was victorious again.

    After the show, Rumble had finally met with his parents.

    James and Anna were excited for their son, who looked like he had lost his best friend.

    Anna asked, "What is wrong my boy?"

    Rumble spoke, "I am still fighting ham and eggers! Where is the real challenge? I hope that I get some competition at the young lions'' tag cup next week. I hated that they are making me a wrestling tag team when I had only wrestled as a single. I am wrestling with somebody called the red flare. They thought flames go real with a phoenix who rises from the ashes. I hope that it will be better for them.

    James and Anna watched their son¡¯s debut at GCS. It went about the same as the previous debut.

 chapter 2

    Chapter 2

    It had been one week and Rumble had thirty wrestling matches against various jobbers, whose jobs are to make the stars look good. Such wrestlers are paid to be cannon fodder for the better-known wrestlers. He had fought five cage matches in that time, as well. It was the day of the young lion tag tournament.

    An old man that looks that has gotten much mileage on the journey called life is standing inside an

    eighteen by the eighteen-foot sized ring. This ring was called by the wrestlers, as a workers'' ring. This kind of ring was made to more gentle that the twenty by twenty wrestling rings used by super heavyweight wrestlers. Both of the sports organizations that had hired Rumble were known by their smaller, faster technician wrestlers. They had heavyweights and supers, as well, to help draw the fans to the arenas.

    The smaller wrestlers kept the fans inside their seats and made sure that they returned.

    The aged man in a nice three-piece suit finally speaks, "I have competed for over thirty years and I am a twenty-time world champion!"

    The people all chanted, "Yeah!"

    The man yelled back ¡°Yeah!¡±

    This went on for several minutes.

    ¡°It is time for the moment at hand, and I have found eight teams consisting of the best tag wrestlers that had yet proven themselves as wrestlers. The first team is the furries!¡±

    Two male wrestlers come out in fursuits, with one dressed as a fox with cartoon features. The other man was dressed, as some sort of lizard.

    They enter the ring as they are introduced, "The fox wrestler is called Furry!"

    The wrestler puts his paws up into the air, as trash is thrown at him.

    ¡°The lizard wrestler is called Scaly!¡±

    The Ring was covered in trash, as the fans screamed out, "Die Fur fags, die!"

    The old man didn¡¯t move an itch, as the noncompeting young lions, try to clean up the dirtied

    ring.

    ¡°The second tag team is the moonshiners!¡±

    The whole crowd stood to them, as two fat rednecks come out with moonshine jugs in their

    hands. They are barefoot while wearing dirty overalls, with straw hats.

    ¡°The taller man is called Cleetus and the smaller man is Rufus!

    The fat men climbed over the top rope, as they raised their smelly armpits up into the air.

    The old man spoke, "The third team is called Pretty Boys R'' Us They are Connor and Duncan!"

    Every woman in the crowd begun to scream out in glee, while their lovers boo.

    The two men had long hair while no shirts on and leather pants. The pretty boys have a shirt collar around their neck with a bow tie.

    ¡°The fourth team is a team consisting of two robot brothers, Nuts and bolts, the Robo madness.¡±

    Every kid in the building yelled out with joy, as the team enters the ring.

    ¡°The fifth team is the hunters for hire, run, and Gun!"

    The two men were dressed, like big game hunters.

    ¡°The sixth team is consisting of Silver and Gold, the precious metals¡±.

    The two men were covered in over twenty pounds of precious metals.

    ¡°The seventh team is Rude and Crude, the Slut shamers!¡±

    The two men were dressed as preachers with bibles in their hands, and ponchos in the other. The two were preaching about immortality, while they cover every half-naked woman that was near them. Boos could be heard by the majority of the fans.

    ¡°The last team is consisting of two young prodigies! Humble Rumble and Red Flair.¡±

    The crowd lost it when they saw the ill-made duo came out to the ring. Red flair was in a red and black colored outfit. The red was in the form of various flames over his body. He had a flame over

    each of his mask¡¯s eye holes.

    ¡°I will now reveal the matches! The first match will be Humble Rumble and Red Flare vs the furries!¡±

    The fans yelled, ¡°Beat their ass! Rumble! Flare! Beat their ass!¡±

    Rumble wanted to hit the mat and kick his feet, as ill-behaved children

    ¡°The second match is The moonshiners vs Pretty Boys R¡¯ Us.¡±

    The crowd cheered.

    ¡°The third match will be Robo Madness vs Hunters for Hire! The last match will be the Precious Metals vs the Slut Shamers.¡±

    Everybody but the teams for the first match left the ring. A ref entered the ring and the bell was rung.

    Furry stayed in the ring, while Scaly exits the ring, and stood on the corner of the ring. Red Flare

    wanted to start the match, but Humble wouldn¡¯t let him by putting an arm in front of his tag partner.

    Flare finally relented as Humble started the match.

    The two masked wrestlers started to circle each other in an attempt to get a feel for each other.

    Rumble had the first move and did a dropkick to Furry. The furry dodged the move and clothesline the neck of Humble.

    The black and yellow wrestler rotating his body mid-air and transitioned into an armbar. Furry had used all his might to keep Rumble from breaking his arm, by grabbing his entrapped arm with his

    free hand.

    Rumble spoke quietly to only Furry could hear.

    "I hate furries because you''re all sick in the head."

    Furry spoke, "Don''t kink-shame me!"

    Rumble spoke, "Kink shaming is my kink!"

    Furry screamed out in horror, as Rumble had gotten hold of his opponent¡¯s arm. Furry was about to tap when Scaly jumped into the ring and broke Humble''s hold of his tag partner. Ref pounced at Scaly and forced him out of the ring.

    Rumble used the confusion to rip the mask off of Furry and threw it into the crowd away from

    the inattentive ref.

    Humble then went into a quick pin, while covering up the face of Furry. Because taking off a wrestler''s mask was an instant disqualification.

    Red flare spoke,¡±Get back over here ref!¡±

    The official turned around to see that Rumble was pinning Furry with his shoulders to the mat.

    The ref counted one, two, and..¡±

    Furry kicked out and rolled out unto his belly. He was doing all he could to cover his face.

    The ref yelled, "Rumble, did you take his mask?"

    Humble spoke, "He took off because he was too hot, due to him wanting to yiff!"

    Scaly got into the ring while gesturing with his hand, that Rumble had taken off Furry''s mask.

    Rumble spoke, "Even if I did it, you have to see it to disqualified me!"

    The fans throw the mask back into the ring, as Furry puts back on his mask.

    The fans chanted, "He didn''t do it!"

    The match would continue on.

    The two wrestlers locked up, but Rumble overpowered him. The furry was forced unto his back but still managed to keep his shoulders off the mat. He used his head to bridge his upper body off the ground.

    Rumble did a double knee stomp to the belly of Furry, who rolled over to his corner. Scaly was tagged into the match, as Humble tagged Red flare.

    The two wrestlers stared into the ground, as the fans chanted, "Take his mask!"

    Red Flare put his hand to his ear, as the fans chanted, "Beat this Fur fag!"

    Rumble tried to get back into the ring, as the ref was trying to stop him with his back to the other wrestlers.

    Red flare kicked Scaly straight in his balls, as he stole his mask. He put on the lizard mask on over his own mask. He started to soccer kicked the furry in his side, as hard as he could.

    Flare put Scaly into a camel clutch, which covered the face of his foe.

    Scaly was tapping out, as hard as he could.

    Rumble had grabbed the ref, to allow his partner to get free hits on his foe. Red flare puts the mask back unto his foe''s head.

    The ref was let go by Humble and he saw the injured Scaly on his belly.

    Furry tried to enter the ring, but Rumble had done a dropkick from his corner, over to the opponent''s corner. Furry was kicked unto the guard rail, as rumble land foot first in the first row. Furry was put into an armbar while using the guard rail to pin his arm.

    Red Flare put scaly into a piledriver position on top of one of the turnbuckle.

    The fans were screaming out in horror, as such a sight.

    Red flare did a sitting piledriver to Scaly and knocked him out cold.

    Flare made the pin, as the ref counted one, two, three!¡±

    Rumble and his tag partner had won the first match.

    Red Flare left the ring, as Rumble left go of Furry.

    The two walked into the back without even letting the ref lift their hands.

    In the back was an announcer with a mike, as spoke, "Red Flare, Humble Rumble, do you have any words to say?"

    The pair went off without saying a word.

    The announcer spoke, "These guys are men of many words. It would be interesting to see what

    this pair doing in their next match.¡±

    Finally, The Furries came back into the back.

    The same announcer spoke, "Furries, it is sad that you two had been beaten in the first round.''

    Scaly took the mike and spoke, "This is a miscarriage of justice since these punks took both of masks! They should''ve been disqualified instantly, but the ref was incompetent!"

    Furry took the mike and spoke, "This isn''t over yet! There will be hell to pay.

    It was time for the second match of the young lions'' tag tournament and the first team came out wearing just straw hats and stained overalls. They both had a jug of moonshine in their hands that was being used to wet their long unkempt beards. A lot of the crowd yelled out with glee as the Moonshiners entered the ring.

    The next team caused nearly every woman to stand up awaiting for Pretty Boys R'' Us to come out. The tag team was wearing no shirts and only a neck collar with a bow tie. Their smooth chests were exposed to all that may look upon them. Their pants were held up by only suspenders with heart designs upon them. They were wearing wrestling boots under their skin-tight leather pants.

    The men in the crowd were showing thumbs down while displaying their disapproval of their partners lusting after another man.

    The two teams sized each other out and the battle was now on. All four men were now battling each other. The ref called for the bell to be rung and the match was now official.

    The ref put both of his index fingers together as he cried out," one on one!"

    Cleetus and the blond hair Connor remained in the ring and the others went to their respective

    corners.

    The crowd was shouted out rival chants,¡± Moonshiners! Pretty Boys!¡±

    It was deafened to everybody inside the arena and into most of the backrooms.

    The two wrestlers start to circle each other before they lock up into a test of strength.

    Cleetus forced Connor down unto his eyes in front of him, while pressing down on his foe just with his arm strength. The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

    The women were screaming for Connor to strike back before he is pressed unto the mat.

    The redneck yelled out, "Come on, girly man! You can do better than that!"

    Connor took him on his offer and forced himself back unto his feet. The man tripped Cleetus and caused him to fall chest first unto the second rope.

    Connor rose to his feet and jumped through the second rope, next to his foe. He performed a Tiger feint kick by grabbing the top rope and rotated his body to kick Cleetus in the head.

    The fat man fell back first on the mat while grabbing his head. Connor immediately took advantage of his fallen foe.

    Cleetus was soccer kicked in the head several times, before he rolled over to his belly. The pretty boy put his foe into a camel clutch. The move had the attacker pull the victim¡¯s head and back rearward with their arms.

    The men were yelling for the moonshiner to fight back, while the women cried out with glee.

    Rufus was sticking his hand to tell his tag partner to tag out. Cleetus couldn¡¯t get out of the hold for over one minute.

    Rufus yelled out, "Get that girly boy off of you and get your fat ass over here!"

    The men were chanting, "Come on, Cleetus!"

    The moonshiner broke out of the hold, rush to his partner, and tagged Rufus in.

    Rufus charged at Connor who jumped towards his corner and tagged out.

    Duncan was taller than Connor and had dark black hair. Rufus was ready to go and chased his foe to the nearest corner while performing a flying dropkick. The crowd was in awe over the five

    hundred pound man being so agile. The move was so fierce that it broke the top turnbuckle, which caused the top rope to become loose.

    The match was paused, while the ring was fixed. The fans were at a fever pitch when the match continued.

    Rufus started to cartwheel towards his opponent and caught Duncan into a stunner, which knocked him unto his back. The foe tagged him, partner, back in, as he rolled out of the ring and unto the concrete ground. (A stunner has the attacker grab his foe''s neck downwards while having his back to their opponent).

    Cleetus called out to his partner to tag him in, which Rufus did just that.

    It was Connor versus Cleetus again and the six hundred pounders were chomping at the bit.

    The pretty boy rolled out of the ring to safety, which pissed off the moonshiner. Connor thought he was safe, as he had his back to his foe. But, that safety wasn¡¯t wouldn¡¯t last for long.

    Because the fat man did a flying crossbody to the two men on the outside of the ring. It was an astounding success, as Rufus added unto the strike with a flying belly flop to the two prone men.

    The Rufus was counting since the two teams were outside the ring. The moonshiners threw Connor into the ring with Cleetus rushed to pin his foe. Rufus was pressing Duncan against the side of the ring while using all of his body weight. The pretty boy was powerless to get himself free of the moonshiner.

    Cleetus had his foe up into the air vertically in a jackhammer power slam and forced him down to the mat. The moonshiner landed his fat torso down unto Duncan.

    The women were screaming out in horror, as the ref counted, "one, two, three!"

    Young girls were crying that their team had just lost. The moonshiners¡¯ music came on and the two men walked to the back.

    They were asked for an interview and the two men agreed.

    Rufus spoke, "Those punks were not ready for what we were going to give them. Those skinny boys, better are ready for us!"

    Cleetus spoke, "What the hell is a Humble Rumble? Red Flare is a youngin'' from the famous Flare family, but he will do no better!"

    The two Moonshiners walked back to the locker room.

    #

    Pretty Boys R¡¯ Us were being helped to the back by a few young boys (newbie wrestlers).

    The interviewer was knocked out of the way as the losers were in no mood to talk.

    The next match was up and it was the team Robo Madness who came out first as they had just come off some mech show. All the kids in the arena had the two men¡¯s robot¡¯s images on their clothes, along with a lot of the boys holding their action figures in their little hands. The team consisted of two red and blue colored robots named Nuts and Bolts. The red wrestler was called Nuts, while the blue robot was named Bolts.

    The next team was called the hunters for hire, which had all the hunters/outdoorsmen in the crowd jumping for joy. The two men were dressed as wild game hunters dressed in camouflage, as if they had just came from hunting, The men were identical twins that only difference in appearance was their facial hair. The first man named Run had a large handlebar mustache that was close to two feet in width. He had the rest of his face shaven beside his goatee. Gun, on the other hand, had a long bushman style beard that extended down to his muscled chest.

    The two teams didn¡¯t fight before the bell started and even shook hands to show that they were keeping the code of honor. (This meant that the match would be a clean one, with no cheating).

    The bell rung and Nuts and Run were starting the match give each a bow, as a sign of mutual respect. The crowd clapped in approval of the sportsmanship displayed.

    The robot started to throwing spinning fists at the hunter, but it was for naught.

    Run dodged and gave his machine for a chop to the chest, which caused sparks to pour off of

    Nuts¡¯ torso.

    The hunter shouted, "What the hell? Is he off of the ultimate sentai show?"

    Nuts used the confusion to strike his fleshy foe with a spinning fist. Run was knocked back into the ropes.

    Gun shouted, "Brother, get that waste of metal and turn him into scrap metal!"

    Run did just that and used the second rope to use to propel him into a flying superman punch.

    Sparks blew off of Nuts¡¯ torso and caused him to roll out of the ring.

    The kids started to scream out, "Get up Nuts! Beat him up!¡±

    The robot got back in the ring and started to do some sort of pose. Run was walking on the top the closest to his foe.

    The hunter did a flying double ax handle to the head of Nuts. Sparks flew off the robot, but he remained steadfast in his pose. (the move has the attacker land on its foe with both fists wrapped together).

    Run was grabbed up into a throwing belly to belly suplex, which causes him to fly over the top rope and land on the metal guardrail in front of the onlooking crowd.

    Nuts had been caught mid-pose when he was given a Hurricanrana and thrown out of the ring.

    Gun had taken advantage of his flashy foe, which caused bolts to attack him as a means of revenge.

    (This move causes the victim to be flipped in almost a complete three hundred degrees arc with the attackers'' legs and core muscles).

    The ref had no time to break the two illegal men, as he was counting towards a ring out the victory.

    ¡°17, 18, 19.¡±

    Both men rolled into the ring in time.

    Both teams returned to their respective corners and tagged their partners in. It was now Bolts vs Gun, which the fans were starting to get excited.

    The two warriors started to give each other harsh chomps to the chest. The blows were getting harder and harder. Sparks were endlessly coming off of Bolt''s chest, while Gun''s chest has to bleed from the blows.

    The blue robot did a double spinning punch to his opponent after he jumped off the second rope.

    Gun was knocked out of the ring and slammed against the guard rail.

    The hunter climbed back into the ring and tagged Run back in. Nuts were tagged back into the match.

    The two warriors started to circle each waiting for the moment to strike.

    This went on for over one minute, before the two fighters each a flying dropkick to each other.

    Both kicks landed and they land hard on their sides.

    The ref checked on the competitors and asked, "Can you continue?"

    Both fighters screamed out, "Yes!''

    The two stand up to their feet and continued to wrestle.

    They did a double punch to the face.

    Both men were knocked out.

    The ref called for stretchers and had them carried off into the back for medical care.

    It was now Nuts vs run.

    The fans were chanting, "This is awesome!"

    The robotic wrestlers started to spin into a circle and started to move around, like a spinning top.

    Run was pinned in the nearest turnbuckle to the point where he couldn¡¯t defend himself

    anymore.

    The ref gestured for the bell to be rung.

    Nuts spot the assault after hearing the bell.

    Medical staff carried off Run, as the robotic warrior stood victorious.

    The kids were happy as the robot did poses for them.

    No interview was given by ether team.

    Rumble and Flare were whispering with each other, as the match ended.

    Now was the last match was now Precious metals vs the Slut Shammers. The two were now in the ring, waiting for the bell to ring. There would be no code of honor in this match.

    The teams gave each other curses and the brawl was on. Everybody exited the ring and started to fight, like wild men. Silver had a TV cable wrapped around Rude¡¯s neck in the attempt to strangle him old cold. Prude was beating Gold with the time keeper¡¯s hammer in the side of the head.

    The ref couldn''t count out or disqualify both teams since it was a tournament. There had to be a winner. Gold was bashing the ring bell into the jaw of Rude, while Prude was getting his head bashed at his back.

    Precious metals were taken their foes into the ringside seats, as fans rushed to get out of the way.

    Rude threw a half-filled bear cup unto the face of Gold. The man didn''t take kindly to that and started to pummel his foe in the head with flying metal chairs.

    God spoke, "You nasty bastard! Take this on for size!"

    Rude started to run towards the concession stands,

    Prude and Silver were taking turns bashing each other in the top of their heads, as hard as possible. Normally at the promotion, the move would be an instant disqualification, but that would not happen here today. Both men would be fined ten thousand dollars, by the promotion. Yet, they could care less, since it was ass-kicking time.

    The Ref had gotten some popcorn and a soda while sitting in one of the ring''s corners.

    The announcer was shouting on the mike, "Please stop! Get back to the ring!"

    None of the wrestlers listened to the request and continued on to beat each other up.

    Silver and Gold were setting up tables and stacking them on top of each other until there were two rows of three tables on top of each other. The fans were both excited and concern over what would happen next.

    The precious metals dragged the slut Shammers unto the second floor. The crowd was screaming out in horror about what was going to happen next.

    Gold and Silver were about to powerbomb their opponents when the move was blocked by the enemy team. The Slut Shammers were making themselves into dead weights by wrapping their shins around the legs of their would-be attackers.

    Prude and Rude got free of the precious metals and whipped them unto the floor below. It was a twenty feet drop through thick metal and wooden chairs. Women and children were screaming at the sight, while the men were chanting, ¡°Holy shit! Holy shit!¡±

    The ref stopped the match, as the Slut Shammers put their hands up in victory.

    Medical staff was carting off the precious metals into a nearby ambulance.

    The backroom interviewer was dripping in sweat, as he had rushed to interview the winning team.

    ¡°Slut Shammers, how does it feel to the win the last match of the first round of the...¡±

    Prude spoke, "Get your filthy self away from me you dirty rotten sinner! I will beat you as they did on the day those demons put the good Lord on the cross!"

    Rude chimed in with an ¡°amen.¡±

    The pair went on preaching for several minutes before the microphone was turned off. The two then walked back to the locker room.

    #

    The show went into an intermission, as the staff put back the arena back into working order.

    Humble and Red Flare were excited in the back after seeing the brawl.

    Rumble spoke, "I wished that we could''ve taken part in that blood bath!

    Before Flare could respond, a young boy shouted, "Guys, it is time for your match!"

    The motley crew entered the ring and were waiting for the moonshiners to come out. When the fatsos got within fifteen feet of the ring the smaller team did a double flying cross body to the opposing team. (This move has the attacker throw themselves the chest of their foe while turning their body horizontally).

    But was for naught, since the moonshiners caught the smaller tag team. (Humble Rumble and Red flare¡¯s combined weight was only four hundred and eighty pounds, compared to eleven hundred plus Moonshiners). The entrapped team was bucklebombed unto the edge of the ring. (the edge of the ring had little protection on it and was mostly consisted of metal.

    Rumble and Flare were grabbing their backs due to pain, as they were yelling out their frustration. Rumble was cursing so much that it would make a sailor blush.

    The team had no time to recover as they were picked up by their fat foes and flung one-handed into the farthest guard rail. They both landed upside down and were defenseless.

    The moonshiners ran to the opposite side of the guard rails and raced towards the heroes.

    The two fatties performed a flying belly flop on Rumble and Flair. Both of the victims lost all their breath and couldn¡¯t recover themselves back to their normal selves.

    The moonshiners were ripping off the floor mats used to protect the wrestlers from landing on the concrete floor. The whole area was now bare floor, as the huge rednecks walked over to the duo.

    Women could be heard screaming at the sight of Rumble and Flair incoming assault.

    The fat men used up the slender wrestlers and flipped upside down.

    The moonshiners were going to piledriven them into the hard floor.

    Rumble and Flair were each given a gotch piledriver unto concrete! (This variation has the attacker¡¯s arm locked around the victim''s body, as they are slammed head first into the ground. The attacker sits on the floor at the end of the move).

    Chapter 3

    I had always grown up in a wrestling family. My grandparents were both world champions in the sport. They fought in cage fighting to validate their prowess as athletes, and to show that pro wrestling wasn¡¯t fake. My granddad told me before he died that he had suffered more injuries from wrestling than he ever received, as a fighter. But some never believed him and made fun of his profession. My dad is a twenty time world heavyweight champion in both wrestling and MMA. His combined time, as a champions was over twenty years with countless defenses.

    Dad is starting to slow and isn¡¯t as agile as he once was.

    He told me one day,¡±Son, I may never reach my peak again, but I will eat up all the money on the way down. Know your worth son and never forget it!¡±

    I never did and once I graduated from college I asked him to set me wrestle full time. I had done some part time work to help pay my way through college. I love it from day one.

    Day was in his office that day when he gave me the gimmick that I would start wrestling under.

    It was red flair!

    Chapter 4

    Rumble and Flair were both out cold, as everyone was in the crowd screaming, Medical staff was carting the young tag team off to the back. James and Anna were crying overseeing their son being injured.

    Anna spoke, "Those bastards killed my baby!"

    James only held his wife closely.

    The moonshiners were in the ring being interviewed when screams could be heard in the back of the crowd.

    The front of the crowd turned to see what was going on.

    It was Rumble and Flair!

    Their heads were both covered in blood.

    They were walking back to the ring.

    People were horrified at the sight of the two young men forcing themselves.

    The moonshiners¡¯ jaws had both hit the floor, as the rival team climbs back into the ring.

    The tag team was chomping at the bit to get at the moonshiners

    The ref shouted, "Boys, you are done!"

    The boys were about to knock the ref out when the fans yell out with glee.

    It was the old withered promoter who walked out to the ringside.

    He pulled out a microphone and said, "Boys, are ready to go again?"

    Rumble and Flair were both out on their feet, but they still were able to shout out, "Damn straight!"

    The bell rang and the match started immediately.

    The whole crowd was silent at the toughness of the new team.

    Rumble and Flair were fighting more aggressive than they had ever down before. They were

    using the speed advantage they had over the fatsos. The smaller team was kicking nonstop on the Cleetus and Rufus¡¯ legs.

    Rufus and Rumble were inside the ring, while the other wrestlers were on the outside. Humble is kicking his foe in the thigh nonstop.

    Rumble climbs up to the farthest corner and jumps down to drop kicking Rufus in his left knee.

    The fat man struggled to get back up as the smaller man curb stomps the knee into oblivion. This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.

    Rumble locks Rufus into a sharpshooter and puts pressure on his bad leg.

    Rufus screams out, "You are not gonna make me quit!"

    The moonshiners crawled over to his corner, but no one was there.

    Red Flair has choked out Cleetus.

    Rufus had forced Rumble to rope break in which the Ref had to enforce.

    Cleetus knee was kicked into oblivion to the point where the moonshiner was unable to defend himself.

    The ref stopped the match and Rumble kicked Cleetus out of the ring.

    The announcer rushed into the ring with a mike, when Rumble grabs the mike.

    "Get these fat asses out of our ring! This ring is for real athletes and not damn gimmicks. I have spent the last sixteen years in combat sports busting all sorts of asses! Flair gets in the ring and tells this pencil neck the truth."

    The tag partner comes in and takes the microphone.

    ¡°My family raised me to love wrestling and my dad is a world champion.¡±

    The crowd goes, "Whew!"

    "There is no room for jokers in the business that my uncle died for! We gave his life in the ring showing how real the sport is!"

    ¡°Flair brothers,¡± goes the crowd.

    The aged promoter has tears in his eyes over the mentioning of the fallen Flair brother.

    Rumble takes the mike backed and says, "We are the new badass team call, Kasai Tori!"

    The microphone is dropped and the two walked to the back.

    The medical staff is trying to get the pair into a nearby ambulance and the duo are fighting the medics tooth and nail.

    #

    The bearded promoter was walking towards the back when feels several hands grabbing his suit, At first, he tries to walk it off, but the hands follow along his heavyweight frame. He turns to see two people grabbing him with tears in their eyes.

    He speaks, "I am Greg Anderson the boss..."

    Several young boys grabbed the couple as they prepare to drag the pair out.

    The boss yells, "Stop it, I will deal with them in the back.

    #

    Greg leads Anna and James to the back and sees Kasai Tori making a hell of a scene.

    Anderson yells, "Guys stop it!"

    Everybody but Rumble and Flair has stopped in their tracks.

    Gregg grabs the two men up into his arms, while the team is helpless to do anything about it.

    The team calm down and is put back down on the ground.

    Anna and James scream out, "Rumble, you have to stop or you will die! We can''t lose you again!"

    Greg figures out that these people are Rumble¡¯s folks.

    Rumble is still out on his feet, but he still knows who is talking to him.

    He says, "What are you doing here? I am fine!"

    James spoke, "You are going to a hospital!"

    Rumble spoke, "The hell I am! I am going to win this tournament with flair! The tag partner yells out, "Yeah!"

    The promoter spoke, "Most bosses would send you two to the hospital, but I watched my friend die in the ring his second. I tried to stop the match by throwing in the towel, but he grabbed it and threw it over to the crowd. He died just minutes later with a smile on his face."

    The old man was crying.

    Flair spoke, "You''re talking about my uncle? You were his best friend, besides my dad."

    Rumble spoke, "He was found out after his death t

    o have terminal brain cancer. He died a warrior''s death. What a man!"

    Greg spoke, "I won''t stop you two from continuing in the tournament, but I will stop you if you get in a spot like you did with the moonshiners! I can''t put these people through the same thing I was forced to do. Is that clear?"

    The two men both yell¡± Yes¡± as they are lead to the medical room for treatment. The concerned parents of Rumble are following along.

 chapter 5

    Chapter 5

    Out in the second semifinal match which pitted the Slut Shamers against the Robo Madness. The entire crowd was booing the nicely dressed, Prude and Rude, while also cheering Nuts and Bolts. There was no code of honor as the Slut Shamers beat the robots with long metal rods.

    Prude spoke, ¡°Spare the rod, spoil the robot!¡±

    The robot wrestlers grabbed the rods and threw them down to ringside. Prude and Nuts stayed in the ring, while the others went to their respective corners.

    The two wrestlers were punching each other in the face as hard as they could. Sparks was flying off of Nuts and even the hateful preacher was taken back by the sight.

    Prude spoke,¡±I will beat the weebness out of you, sinner!¡±

    The preacher broke into a metal panel and found some wires coming out of the suit. Prude yells for a sack from Rude and catches it with ease.

    It was a CD player in the sack and plugged into the machine. He then put a CD with ¡°King Rumble Version Holy Bible.¡±

    The Robot transformed into a robot preacher, suit and all. Bolts tried to stop his partner. The tag team was fighting outside of the ring.

    The ref counted, ¡°Seventeen, eighteen, Nineteen, twenty!¡±

    The slut Shammers had won by a ring out, which angered the entire crowd. Trash was being thrown into the ring.

    During the confusion, the tag team¡¯s was attacked from behind with baseball bats. It was Kasai Tori! Their heads was nearly covered by bandages, with the remains of their masks on top of the wrapping.

    The pair had come down through one of the arena¡¯s many skylights by using a crane used to move the ring up out of the way. The Slut Shammers were hanged up by a pair of large hooks and

    Rumble used a wired controller to lift all four of the men were lifted up to the arena roof. The four men were now on the roof, with the Slut Shammers starting to come to. Kasai Tori had placed the glass and metal covering back on the arena ceiling.

    The fans below were screaming over about what was going to happen next. The Slut Shammers were rising back to their feet. Kasai Tori was grabbing the tag team up into a powerbomb position above their heads.

    The fans were screaming out,¡±No don¡¯t do it!¡±

    But Rumble and Flair paid no attention to their screams.

    Prude and Rude were thrown threw the glass and metal and landed clean through the ring below.

    People were crying, because they thought that Robo madness was dead. Kasai Tori climbed back down the crane and landed in the ring below. The team pulled Robo madness from out of the hole in the ring and placed their mangled bodies on the mat. Rumble and Flair put their foot on top of their broken opponents.

    The ref was crying as he was forced to count to three.

    Kasai Tori was victorious but was no joy in the crowd. The fans were all full of hatred, as they started to throw metal chairs at the duo. The ref was unable to run for his life as he was pelted unconscious by the incoming chairs.

    The rioting fans were forced to part into two different groups, as Humble¡¯s large van was burning through all that crossed it¡¯s path. The pair saw the side door open and they leaped from the ring, over the guard rail, and into the van. The men slammed the door shut, as whoever was driving was speeding off to safety.The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

    James spoke,¡±What the hell was the boys thinking? They have caused a riot!¡±

    Anna spoke,¡±I hope that they are safe!¡±

    #

    Back in the speeding van was Rumble and Flair gasping for air.

    Flair spoke,¡±We will be forced into the main event with a showing like that!¡±

    Rumble spoke,¡±How we was to supposed to follow such of a gimmick match with only our wrestling skills. The fans would¡¯ve pissed all over it.¡±

    Flair spoke,¡±Who is driving us?¡±

    Rumble spoke,¡±It isn¡¯t mom or dad, since they are still in the crowd.¡±

    A voice spoke,¡±Don¡¯t worry about it, since nee-san (big sister) got¡¯s you covered!¡±

    It was back twelve years ago when Rumble was just entering high school at a mere eight years old. He would spend the next four years working towards graduation while starting on his college courses. He was the smallest kid in the school, due to his age.

    Rumble was dropped off by his dad and given some money for his lunch. James drove off to work, as some older boys walked over to him. They all had an evil grin on their faces, yet the lad keeps walking on his journey to his class.

    One of the boys speaks, "Kid, this isn''t preschool!"

    The lad walked until his path was blocked by the three bullies. Rumble still pays the boys no head when the largest boys grab him up above his head.

    Rumble spat his wad of gum on the boy¡¯s head and smears into his hair.

    The bully yells out, "You Homo, I am going to beat your ass.

    The two remaining bullies are laughing at seeing Humble being dropped to the sidewalk.

    The first bully spoke, You¡¯re so dead!¡±

    As soon as Rumble hit the ground, he was long gone.

    #

    The boy was running without looking where he was going when he ran into something. It was a tall girl at five foot six inches and around one hundred and twenty pounds., while Rumble was barely four feet tall and fifty pounds. He was caught up into her arms, like a toddler''s action figure.

    She spoke with a deep voice for a young girl, "Are you okay, Buddy?"

    Humble spoke, "I am okay, just let me down."

    The girl smiled and put him back on the ground. He arrived at his first class without incident.

    #

    It was lunchtime and Rumble was in line for his food, when he gets grabbed up by the three bullies from before.

    The bully with gum in his hair was now cut short.

    Rumble spoke, "You''re all tough now fighting three on one.

    A voice spoke, "It''s three on two!"

    The intended bully victim spoke, "Oh, it is you!"

    It was the tall girl from before.

    One of the bullies spoke, "Back off bitch!"

    The girl hit each of the larger attackers and they all fell down to the ground.

    All of the nearby students laugh at the sight of three boys losing to one girl.

    The girl spoke, "Rumble-chan, nee-san will protect you!"

    Using chan after a person¡¯s name means the user finds the target adorable.

 chapter 6

    Chapter 6

    The young Rumble had hugged the girl, as a means to thank her for saving him. She lifts him upon her shoulders while wrapping his legs around her neck. The boy grabbed her long black like a kid told a rocking horse to get up. Nee-san had hair that flowed down from her head down to her ankles. She had no problem with the eager boy playing on top of her, even with all the laughs from many onlookers.

    Rumble led her to his next class and jumped off her back and spoke, "Thanks for all the help, nee-san I will see you later."

    The rest of the week went without incident and Rumble was chomping at the bit the whole weekend. He got up at 5:30 am and was out the door before his mother even got dressed for work.

    Anna walked back into the kitchen and saw that Rumble had left a note which she read.

    ¡°Mom, I wanted to go for a run before school and I loved your breakfast this morning. Bye!¡±

    #

    Rumble thought, "I hope to run into nee-san again."

    The boy ran into somebody from behind and caused them to trip on the sidewalk.

    A girl spoke, "I am going to beat your a..."

    Rumble jumped on the girl, as he spoke, "Oh, it''s you nee-san! I missed you all weekend. I thought that I never see you again!"

    She spoke, "Rumble-chan, do you have a phone?"

    He shoved the phone in her face while still laying on top of her. Kids were laughing at the pair.

    Kids were yelling out, "Get a room! When''s the wedding? Incest isn''t wincest!"

    Nee-san lifted both her and the small boy¡¯s bodyweight with ease. Rumble rode on her back as he had done the previous week.

    Rumble and nee-san traded numbers and continued on for the early morning classes.

    #

    Three months go by and the pair become inseparable during schooldays. But they had to call each other on weekends due to being on opposite sides of town. The pair begged to have a sleepover at each other''s house. But the girl''s parents stonewalled for a long time until nee-san was allowed to go to the young boy''s house. The pair was so excited to see each other more than five days a week, as they were starting to grow very close.

    The pair were sitting in their pajamas watch some of the local wrestling. The world champion of the territory was fighting against a challenger.

    Each of the nine territories of National Combat League (NCL) had their own "world" champion in all sorts of weight classes from 105 pounds up to the unlimited super heavyweight class. Each weight class had at least a tag and singles championship. The NCL had both singles and tag champions that were considered the supreme champion of all of the territories. They went from territory to territory fighting the top wrestler in that weight class. If the challenger won then they would vacant the lower championship and become the NCL world champion.

    Rumble and nee-san were shouted to the end of the match where the challenger won. Then Rumble blurted out something out of the blue.

    ¡°You become the women¡¯s world champ and will become the men¡¯s world champ, after that we can get married!¡±

    Both of the kids were blushing as Anna and James laugh at the comment. Rumble left the room and hid in his bedroom. The large girl followed her little friend upstairs to his bedroom. He was hiding under the bed crying out of the embarrassment that he was feeling. Nee-san got down on her belly and tried to climb under the bunk bed but was unable to.

    Leave me alone!" cried, Rumble.

    Nee-san spoke, "There is nothing wrong with loving somebody! I love you Rumble-chan"

    The boy rushed out from under the bed and hugged his friend. The two fell asleep on the

    bedroom carpet.

    Anna walked into the room and thought that the sight was cute. She covered the pair in the boy¡¯s comforter, turn off the light, and left the door cracked open.

    #

    Out of nowhere someone comes storming into the family''s driveway and a seven feet tall man that was wearing a three-piece suit that had to be over seven-thousand dollars. This man was at least four-hundred pounds. He ran over to the front door of the mansion and started to pound on the door.

    Anna ran to the door and looked through the peephole.

    She spoke over the intercom, "What the hell do you want?"

    The man spoke, "I am -----''s father and I want her out here now!"

    James went to the front door with a loaded gun, as she opened the front door. The man smacked the gun out of James'' hand and threw out the front door. The weapon landed in the yard across the street. The father was thrown one room away and landed through a wooden table. Anna was shoved unto the nearby couch.

    The giant man went through all the nearby rooms until he enters Rumbles''s room and sees his daughter laying under a blanket with a boy. He karate chomps the bunk beds clean in two with a single

    move.

    Rumble stirred awake and runs over to the man to protect nee-san by punching in him in his side. The attacker smacked slapped the boy across the mouth and knocked against the farthest wall. The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

    The boy¡¯s teeth were knocked out of his mouth, but he ran back over the man and grabbed his leg.

    Nee-san spoke, "Leave Rumble-chan alone! Kaasan (Mom) said I could come over! Why are doing this Chichiue (father)?"

    The father spoke, "You little slut, sleeping with some brat.

    She was going to say something before her father¡¯s huge hand covered her mouth. The pair was running out of the front door and into a speeding car.

    Rumble ran out of the front door screaming nee-san!¡±

    But it was too late and fell to his knees in grief.

    #

    Back to the present, Red Flair, Humble Rumble, was in his van with someone in the front claiming to nee-san.

    The woman driving the van spoke, "You are now alright Rumble-chan!"

    The masked wrestler did a 619 (tiger feint) and landed on the driver.

    Humble spoke, "Where have you been all these years? I missed you so much!"

    Nee-san forgot what she was doing and had both of her arms in a tender embrace.

    Red flare jump down the peddles with his hands just in time to stop the van from entering a speeding intersection.

    Flair yelled, quit your necking and get the hell of the way. Nee-san grabbed up her lost friend and jumped unto the carpet van floor. She landed on her back and held Rumble cheek to cheek to cheek. The pair cried for joy of their reunion lost in their own little world.

    Nee-san spoke, "I am so sorry that Chichiue separated us all these twelve years! I wanted to find you on the outlaw circuit, but I could never pin you down in one place! My old phone was destroyed by

    my bastard Chichiue and you moved so much that I thought that you were lost to me! All I could do was to become the women¡¯s heavyweight champion both at MCF and GCS.

    Rumble spoke, "I failed you since I had not become a world champion yet! I am so sorry, nee-san!"

    She laughed.

    "Dummy, you have only been in the NCL for less than one month! Also, I have had a four-year head

    start. Just be glad that we''re back together, so just enjoy the moment with me!"

    The pair were making out in the back as Red flare was trying to find an unused alley so that he could change out of his wrestling get up. He couldn¡¯t afford anybody noticing him and figuring where they were going. Hell, Red Flair didn¡¯t even know for that matter.

    The reluctant driver spoke, "Fuck my life! Here you two have this pack of condoms, you are going to need more than me! I am going for some food.¡±

    The condoms were flung backward upon the stripping pair, who was completely oblivious to their surroundings.

    #

    Eight hours goes by the couple was laying naked in the back of Rumble''s van encircled by tied up used condoms. The side door opens to Rumble and nee-san horror, as various shopping bags filled to the brim with who knows what.

    They hear someone yelling, "Fifteen condoms in only eight hours! Bloody hell, clean up your mess back there, so I can safely sit back there. I don''t know where the hell where we''re going to stay before we get fined for no showing. Hurry up, as I went to the pizza parlor and ate until I was about to spew and spend the rest of the time in an arcade.¡±

    #

    Thirty minutes goes by nee-san and Rumble had gotten redressed and clean up after themselves.

    The pair got in the front seat with the tall woman driving. Red Flair hosed down the back with disinfecting spray before he sat down in any of the seats. They drove for six hours and went into a gated community.

    Rumble spoke, "Whose mansion is this nee-san?"

    She smiled.

    ¡°It¡¯s mine silly. I am a double world champion and I bring home over twelve million dollars a

    year.¡±

    Humble spoke, "It makes mine look, like a tree house."

    She put her hand on his and says, "You were big enough to get the job done!"

    The passenger smiled as he kissed his nee-san.

    Red Flair spoke, "Come on and get out already!"

    Nee-san spoke, "I had called my staff and gave them the night off. They can be trusted to clean up and repair your gear. Just leave it by the front door and they will have it fixed by six am. We need to get clean up Rumble-chan in the master bedroom. Flair, you pick whatever room you want and get what you want while we cum, no come around for dinner."

    Rumble and Flair had just realized how tall nee-san really was. She was six-foot-eight inches and two-hundred and sixty-five pounds of all woman. This made the two men look, like midgets at

    six foot- two- inches and two-hundred and twenty-pounds.

    Rumble spoke, "Damn, I knew that you were a big girl, but you are¡­ Hell. I don''t even know!"

    She picked up her Rumble-chan and pressed his face into her enormous bosoms. She held him her arms, as he was a nursing child. The front door was instantly unlocked when she looked at the door camera. Nee-san yelled, "Flair you better get in the house or you''ll be dead to rights."

    He did as he was told and rushed into the door behind with his gym bag.

    Rumble spoke, "What are we to each other, nee-san?"

    The big woman snickered with glee, "You are so silly, Rumble-chan. You know the answer already, dummy?"

    Red Flair spoke, "Get a room you two, I am raiding the fridge and watching some TV.

    Rumble was too busy motorboating his woman''s tits.

    She spoke, "Fine, we will! You jelly?"

    Flair started to find some chicken to fry and order some expensive porn PPVS.

    #

    Three hours and eight thousand dollars later, Flair was called into the dining room for dinner.

    He looked like a mess, but no one said anything. Nee-san had fixed some elaborate Ramen dishes to go along with some Sukiyaki (stewed Meat and veggies). Red passed out on top of the table, while Rumble is being carried around by nee-san like a wife being carried over the threshold.

 chapter 7-8

    Chapter 7

    It was time for the GCS Next Gen Tag Tournament and the small arena was filled to the brim with fans eager to see the matches, especially Kasai Tori would show up or not after the near-riot they cased at the Young Lions Tag Tournament.

    Anna and James had received a certified letter at Rumble''s house with their names on it. James opened it and saw that it was two front row tickets, a debit card with the pin written on a note card, and a note with the message, "I am okay, so don''t worry. I just a mighty angle going on is all. Just go see me raise some hell!"

    James spoke, "What the hell is he going to do now? I surprised that he hadn''t been sent to jail already."

    Anna spoke, "That accident four years ago must''ve rattled something loose in his brain."

    #

    The parents were in the front row, waiting for meeting their son again. The tournament didn''t

    introduce the teams as the last one. This made the couple a little nervous but all they could do was watch and wait.

    The first team came out was called S and M, who was covered in leather fetish gear. They had leather masks over their faces. The first man was called Sawyer and was covered in pierces all over his face. The second man was named Maddox and his face was covered in tribal tattoos. The two men were

    identical twins.

    The next team came out to the ring and they were called the Honey Badgers. They were crawling to ring on all fours, dressed after the animals they were named after. The only difference between the two men¡¯s costumes was one had number ¡°1¡± while the other had number ¡°2¡±

    Sawyer and Badger one was in the center of the ring, as the bell rung.

    Sawyer was trying to get hold unto badger one, but the wrestler was too fast running between

    his legs. This goes on for more than two minutes. S and M were starting to get pissed over the honey

    badgers¡¯ silliness. The honey badger travels to the well one too many times as Sawyer kicks his foe in the face.

    Badger one grabs the tip of Sawyer¡¯s boot in his mouth and bites down hard. He tries to kick the honey badger in the head with his free foot.

    Badger one lets go of Sawyer¡¯s first foot and bites down on the attacking foot.

    Maddox yells, "Come on ref!"

    The referee counts, "One, two, three, four..."

    The Honey badger had dodged the disqualification by stopping before the count of five.

    Badger one keeps switches feet for three minutes until Sawyer has had enough. He starts to soccer kick the honey badger with his holey boots. Badger one crawls over to his tag partner and hugs him at the waist.

    Sawyer tagged Maddox in and the man does a running dropkick at the kneeling at Badger One.

    But the Honey Badgers both jump down to the ring floor and Maddox''s feet the hard metal of the turn post. He is writhing in pain on the floor, as Badger two starts to ground and pound on top of the S and M tag members.

    Maddox monkey flips his foe over the top of his head, as Badger two lands through the middle ring rope. The wrestler runs to the ring rope behind him and then races through the middle rope in front

    of Badger two. He performed a flying shoulder tackle to the chest of the Honey Badger.

    Badger jumped to the floor and ran over to his partner to see if he was okay.

    Maddox grabs Badger one by his waist, as Sawyer raced on top of the top rope and does a flying foot stomp on top of Badger''s head. Sawyer lands on top of the fourth-row fans, as the fans show their disagreement of the recent attack on the Honeybadgers. Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

    S and M were mocking the upset fans, as they were beating down on their foes. The Honey

    Badgers had enough and started to hulk up. (The wrestler gets a second wind and attacks against are either blocked, countered, or completely ineffective).

    The ref is counting sixteen, seventeen¡±

    S and M enter the ring at seventeen, while the Honey Badgers come in at eighteen.

    Ref shouted, "One on one, gentleman!"

    Maddox and Badger two tag in their partners.

    The Honey badger jumped flatfooted on top of his foe''s head and gave him flying leg scissors to Sawyer. He lands on top of the nearest turnbuckle as Badger two performs a flying headbutt on his foe, but Sawyer rolled down on the ground below. The Honey Badger''s head hits cold metal and busts his forehead clean up.

    Maddox does a double ax handle to the fallen badger''s head from the top rope. The honey badger''s mask gushes blood, as the ref forces the ringside doctor to come into the ring. The Ring forced all others away from the scene.

    The doctor shakes his head, as the Ref puts his arms in an ¡°x¡± position.

    Badger one is carried off to the back.

    Badger two is left to himself, as the enemy teams start to beat the honey badger into oblivion.

    The Ref broke up the double team, but the two keep tagging in and out.

    The Referee stopped the match, as Honey badger two was unable to defend himself. S and M are now victorious. The fans start to throw some trash into the ring and the tag team flip off the fans on the way to the back.

    Badger two is helped to the back by two of the young boys, as the fans clap for the appreciation of the honey badger''s toughness and sportsmanship.

    Chapter 8

    The theme music changed to some sort of hardcore rap music that praised the thug lifestyle. Two black men come out to the ring wearing heavy coats, backward ball caps, and sagging blue jeans. They were throwing up all sorts of gang signs with their colors hanging out their back pockets. Some of the fans were chanting, "Hood Rats!"

    The announcer spoke, This is¡­ Hey, give me back my wallet!¡±

    The wrestlers had pickpocket the small man¡¯s wallet without anyone be made the wiser.

    ¡°This is Assault and Battery, the Hood Rats!¡±

    The fans were surprised that several wads of ten-thousand dollars hit the mat, as the duo climbed up the turnbuckle.

    The men see fans pointing behind them and the Hood Rats pick up the money with a look of disdain on their faces. They rush at the announcer and forced him to back up into the ring rope.

    Assault spoke, "What the hell? This is how you treat a brother?"

    During the confrontation, Battery stole the watch off the target¡¯s hand and starts to look it over in his hands.

    The announcer gets free of the Hood Rat and starts to yell, "Give me my watch back."

    Battery does as asked.

    The announcer spoke, "The next team is the strikers, consisting of Puncher and Kicker!"

    Two men in MMA gear come out and enter the ring solemnly. The hood rats attack them from behind and pull the Strikers shirts over their heads. The bell rings as the ref does all he could to break up the two-man assault.

    Battery shoves the old referee into the closest turnbuckle, which was an immediate fine of one-thousand dollars to both assault and Battery.

    Assault kicks the ref out of the ring with is a three-thousand dollar offense per wrestler.

    Assault uses the confusion to pull out a makeshift shiv and stabs Puncher in the head.

    Music plays and the promoter comes out, which is Nee-san¡¯s father.

    ¡°You two are done today and the match is over!¡±

    The offending tag team starts to cuss, showing their disagreement with the decision.

    The promoter spoke, "And another thing, you both will be banned from wrestling here for one year and you each are fined one-hundred thousand dollars.

    Several dozen wrestlers grabbed up the Hood Rats and took them off the property. The two men

    were thrown into the street as if they were just trash.

    Puncher had been treated for his wounds in the back, as swore to continue on in the tournament.

 chapter 9-10

    Chapter 9

    It was the third match in the next gen tag tournament and the first time that came out was I can¡¯t believe their not gay (ICBTNG) It was two men dressed in leather gimp suits walking to the crowd¡¯s disdain. The promotion was in part of the Bible belt so the tag team went over like a fart in church.

    The Fans were chanting,¡±You are gay! You are gay!¡±

    The two two men were getting upset that they were being considered to be homosexuals. The fans¡¯ cry was deafening, as the tag team came out. The fans yelled out,¡±F-U! F-U!¡±

    Two men came out to the ring, as the first man was named Felix and the second man was named Ulric. The two men were covered in tattoos and pierces all over their bodies. The men were oblivious bikers as they wore biker vests with endless patches on them. There was 1% and the ¡°SS¡± lighting bolts on them. Felix was the biker man at seven feet three inches and weighed over four hundred and thirty pounds of muscle. Ulric was only seven feet tall, yet he was the thicker man at five hundred pounds. Both men wore long Mohawks with Ulric¡¯s being blonde, and Felix¡¯s being dark blonde.

    There was no code on honor as Felix and Gimp one started to exchange elbows, with their partners wrestling on the outside on the ring.

    Gimp one got behind Felix in a belly to back suplex position and pressed their bodies together. This caused the biker to break free of the attacker and grabbed him up by the neck into a gorilla press position. The wrestler was thrown four rows back into the crowd, which quickly scattered around like mice. The fans would usually try to catch the wrestler but the crowd wanted no part of him. Gimp fell on concrete and metal chairs, but still managed to crawl back into the ring.

    Felix shouted,¡±I will beat your faggot ass, ¡°as the fans cried out,¡±Straight pride!¡±

    Gimp one was curb stomp nearly to death before the ref broke the attack.

    Felix¡¯s arm was raised in victory as Gimp one couldn¡¯t defend myself.

    Gimp two was hot as he tried to yell at the back facing Felix. He went to smack the biker, but

    missed his back as the biker turned to the crowd. Felix had his ass slapped and immediately turned in a

    one-hundred and eighty degree arc with a spinning forearm. Gimp two hit the ground as if he was a sack of potatoes.

    The only match left was the Ditch Diggers vs Kasai Tori. Would the young team show up after that violent finals of the last tournament?

    The ditch diggers came out as two men in dirtied wife beaters, blue jeans, work boots, and ether a shovel or pix ax over their shoulders.

    The two men were named by their tool of choice, as they handed the tools over to the nearby young boys and entered the ring.This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.

    Kasai Tori¡¯s team music played, but there was no tag team!¡±

    The whole song played three times, as the match was to forfeited when screams could be heard coming from behind the crowd. It was two men forcing themselves through the crowd.

    It was Humble Rumble and hid tag partner Red Flair. Nee-san was nowhere to be found as the men finally entered the ring.

    The fans were chanting,¡±Kasai Tori!¡±

    The smaller tag team tried to do the code of honor, but they wouldn¡¯t have any part of it. The ditch diggers knew that their foes were very violent when necessary.

    Chapter 10

    Red Flair and Shovel was in the center of the ring, waiting the moment to strike. The larger man was getting kicked in his side to little effect.

    The huge biker grabbed up the smaller wrestler into a bear hug, as every breath forced his grip that much tighter.

    Rumble yelled, "Flair, come on! You can do it!"

    Red¡¯s arms were pinned by the larger man.

    Flair could kick the foe in the nuts but the match would be over, so he started to kick the man''s knees.

    The ref was yelling, "Red Flair, do something before I end the match!"

    Flair spoke, "The hell with that," as he started to force the biker down to knees.

    Shovel lets go of his foe and fall unto his belly. Flair climbs up to the top turnbuckle, as Rumble does the same to the turnbuckle to the right of Flair.

    As Shovel stands to his feet, both members of Kasai Tori give the fiercest dropkick to each of his knees. He falls to the ground, as the two men put the biker into a Rumble crab as he starts to tap out.

    Pick Ax jumped in to save his partner before the ref could call the match. Both teams tag their partners out with Rumble and shovel. The biker was angry to see his partner being helped by medical staff. Rumble was sliding between the foe''s legs while moving faster than a sliding baseball player.

    Pick Ax couldn¡¯t get hold of his opponent.

    The Biker was getting pissed off by the constant dodging of Flair and he started to stomp the ground as if a mallet being slammed down on a mole. This went down for several minutes, to the nonstop laughing of the crowd.

    Pick Ax was running towards his opponent when he aims to clothesline his opponent. Red Flair jumps into the air and wraps around the extended arm of the biker. The biker arm is placed into an armbar. The slim wrestler is doing all he could to lock out the elbow of Pick Ax, but the big man throws the

    attacker down to the floor below.

    The ref was calling for the bell since the GCS forbade its wrestlers from over the top rope. It could result in instant DQ. Rumble had kicked the biker in the balls from behind before the ref could call the match. Humble rolled up Pick Ax into a pin, as Flair pointed for the pin.

    1,2,3! The match was over and Kasai Tori was the winner.

 chapter 10 part 2

    3

    The fans were excited after the end of the match and were eager to see the rest of the tournament. Most of the crowd left their seat during the short intermission, yet there were still two people in the front that were wondering to what was their son''s plan.

    Anna spoke, "Why did he not keep him informed about what he was doing?"

    Before her husband could respond, a text message appeared on the mother¡¯s phone.

    She spoke, "It''s him and he says that he met someone very close to him. It is part of a future angle, so he can''t reveal it at this time. Sorry to worry you two, and I will meet you after the press conference. Love you!"

    #

    Kasai Tori was in the babyface (good guy) locker room sitting on two wooden stools.

    An old wrestler spoke, "You two think that you''re hot shit but your nothing but a cold turd."

    The two young boys only smile at the aging athlete.

    The veteran was livid at the tag team¡¯s response and was almost on top of the duo when he was stopped.

    It was a heavyweight man that was in wrestling trunks and boots that was six feet eight inches and two Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings.

    hundred and seventy-six pounds. He had a red frohawk and along with a trimmed beard. The ripped

    man grabbed the old man''s wrists. He was the promotion MMA and pro wrestling world heavyweight champion.

    The old man spoke, "Alright Thunderbolt, may it your way!"

    The wrestler left for the shower in a huff.

    The champion spoke, "Don''t worry about him, as he just has two-inch pecker syndrome. He was a big politician in the locker room in his day.

    4

    Rumble spoke, ¡°No problem boss, I have dealt with tons of his kind on the indy circuit, and he was one of the good geezers.¡±

    Flair spoke, "My dad and brothers had told all sorts of horror stories about the jaded dinosaurs."

    Thunderbolt spoke, "Your right, as your family has been through hell and back>

    The champ put a tender hand pat on each of the tag partners.

    The big man then left for the ring. He had the pro wrestling belt around his waist and the MMA belt over his shoulder. The fans were chanting, "Thunderbolt! Thunderbolt!"

    The fans were doing all they could to get a touch of the heavyweight champion. He was waiting for the fans to calm down so that he could speak. Thunderbolt had the crowd in the palm of his hands.

    He spoke, "I came out here to tell you all the importance of this tournament. These men are the future of this promotion!"

    The fans were clapping their agreement. He spoke for a few minutes and left for the back after high fiving all sorts of fans.

 chapter 11 part 1

    Chapter 11

    1

    It was time for the first match of the semifinals which faced S and M vs the Strikers. The usually good-spirited Puncher and Kicker wanted no part of the fetishistic tag team, so there was no handshake at the start of the match. Maddox and Kicker would start the match this time and they fought over who would have a better grip on the other. Both wrestlers were even until the striker had enough of the gimp and punched him cleanly in the face. Luckily it hadn''t been a completely closed fist or he could''ve been disqualified.

    Kicker kept ground and pounding on his foe when he was punched in the back of the head by behind. It was Sawyer that had jumped him from behind. The ref had successfully managed to get the fetishist back to the corner. The strikers were livid that they had been assaulted in such a cowardly way and were ready to pounce on the opposing team. The ref had counted up to four before they had regained their senses. (A ref counting to five while the wrestler doing illegal action result in a DQ).Did you know this story is from Royal Road?

    Kicker tagged in Puncher who was taunting his foe, "You sick fucker, I will beat your soy boy ass!"

    Sawyer was now the legal man and he was ready to go after being insulted.

    The fans had heard the shout from the striker and started chanting, "Soy boy! Beat that soy boy!"

    The wrestler was screaming back at the crowd when he was placed into a rear-naked chock. Puncher had jumped unto the back of his opponent and locked his arm around the neck of Sawyer.

    This promotion allowed the wrestlers to put an arm to the neck during a submission, unlike the traditional arm on jaw method. It was possible to submit a foe by the second method, but the first was way more effective.

 chapter 11 part 2 End of Bout 1

    Maddox was fighting Kicker while forcing their way into the crowd. People were jumping up to their feet and running away from the wrestlers. The fans knew better than to get in the battlers'' way. Even the smallest athlete in the two major combat promotions was trained to whip six or more adults in a fight. Anyone that lost to any person outside the league was immediately fired and told that their last paycheck was in the bank.

    By the time Maddox understood what was going it was far too late, as his tag partner was out cold. The match ended with Sawyer not being able to defend himself.

    Sawyer was carried on a stretcher, while partner yelled out, "It will be alright, daddy!"

    The crowd had calmed down after the finish and an announcer was in the ring with a mike in the two wrestlers'' faces. Puncher grabbed the mike from the slender men.

    "The Boss must be ribbing us to give such a bunch of faggots to wrestle!"

    A lot of the crowd booed their disapproval in the words of Puncher

    Kickers spoke into the mike and said, "What''s wrong with bad-mouthing firewood?" Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author.

    The tag team left for the locker room without further incident.

    #

    Now it was time for the next semifinal match, F-U vs Kasai Tori. Both teams came out to the ring and it was a sudden exchange of blows. All four men were at ringside brawling with all of their intensity. Kasai Tori had little effect on a much larger team, as F-U was much stronger than the ditch diggers by a larger margin.

    Rumble had the top half of his jumpsuit ripped open by the towering Ulric. The giant had fists

    hid air when he saw the incredible display of scar tissue on the young athlete¡¯s torso. Fans were cringing at the sight of Humble¡¯s wounds. His toughness was now out in the open and he was pissed.

    Before the biker could strike, Rumble had caused the crowd to cry out in horror.

    He had used his left hand as a knife and forced himself through the belly bottom of Ulric¡¯s enlarged stomach. The biker had abused two much growth hormone which caused the digestive system

    to attempt to leave the body through the belly bottom. Rumble''s hand was in the gut of the biker up to the wrist.

    The ref had called for the bell and the match was now over. Time seemed to travel in slow motion
