Fight Night

New York:

The Roche Residence:

David's room:

Four days after the Ajures 5 incident:

Dream Sequence:

David was having an, overall, normal day. He was working as diligently as he normally did, his colleagues marveled at the fact that he would always take the stairs. For some reason however, David had a… foreboding feeling when he went to work today. The work day was half-over, and the nuclear reactor was in working order and everyone had a smile on their face… the only problem was that some of the people in the basement, weren't responding on their radios to any of the messages that were sent.

The security chief went down with one of the more experienced men, and they were investigating the smashed electrical panels that lit up the entire lower section of the plant… when the chief's radio went dead.

They tried to call the other security guard, but nobody responded to the multiple calls. The higher ranking plant workers had all agreed that the other teams on the lower east side of the plant would be in trapped in the dark with… something, and had called the police. The security guards, (there were only five now.) had locked down the plant, cooled down the reactor, and armed everyone that could fire a gun with the standard "anti-terrorism weaponry" … there weren't that many guns, and even less people to use them. David had gone with the one of the newest members of the plant, and she knew how to handle the gun, but she was shaking like a leaf, hoping that someone like the Joker or Killer Croc weren't here for some diabolical scheme.

David had found no real trace of the other workers, except for some hard-hats, and pieces to a standard radiation-suit. They were searching for almost five minutes before they found something… a very large puddle of blood, almost a foot in diameter. Then they heard it… a strange clicking noise, like someone was jingling keys in their pocket. Against their better judgment, they turned around and saw a cockroach that could easily outclass a cow in terms of weight and size.

They ran, but it was too small of a space to get away… the one thing that was keeping them alive, was also doing a very good job at cornering them. They reached an intersection, and the girl had slipped on the blood of one of their colleagues, David decided to do something stupid, like shooting at the giant insect that could probably hit like a bull on steroids. The insect had switched it's sights to the muscular human that was injuring it, and charged at the annoying next-meal. David had found the lower security office, ran through the doorway and began to jab at the "Close Doors" button at speeds that The Flash would be proud of. The doors shut with a mighty:

*Woosh!*

*BAM!*

As David struggled to not have the "mother-of-all-panic-attacks" , he walked over to the security team's wall of screens that could connect to almost any computer in the building for Skype chats. After connecting to the main room, everyone was asking where he was, and where the bugs were, and after telling him that the National Guard had finally arrived, David allowed himself to relax… until he noticed that his colleagues seemed to be playing charades with him, in the middle of a crisis situation. He wondered why they didn't hit the talk button, when he noticed something… a very large red spot on the desk next to his right hand. No one alive can express just how much he prayed that its was just Raspberry jam… dripping from the ceiling.

*Clickclickclick!*

*Splat!*

*Thump!*

When a severed human hand and forearm had fallen onto the desk, David began to think about his family, his younger brothers and sisters, his father, his mother, his aunts and uncles, and his grandparents… and he wouldn't go down without a fight! When David tried to roll out of the way, he felt the large mouth bite into him, with teeth the size of knives, and lift him from the ground.

*Snapsnap!*

*Splash!*

*Crunch!*

"AHHHH!"

David felt his left shoulder snap under the power of the cockroaches "molars", and screamed in pain/rage… his left arm was pinned and useless… but his left hand wasn't the hand that was holding the gun. David quickly maneuvered his other arm, and fired.

*BANG!*

*Splash!*

The five bullets came immediately, one after another, the gun had been pressed into the right side of it's skull, and the eye exploded into a shower of rainbow colors that didn't belong to any normal creatures on earth.

*Herraghhshhs!*

The giant insect let out an, equally giant, shriek that could come very close to breaking glass, slammed David into a pillar at least nine times(he had lost count, and feeling in his legs, after the fifth time), before throwing David into the far wall. The young man was very tough for a normal human, he was still conscious, and had the biggest concussion you could possibly achieve without permanent brain damage. The scientist/boxer looked into the pitch-black shadows of the room, and if the creature wasn't covered in the glowing colors of the rainbow, like a party girl at a rave… he definitely wouldn't have seen it. David could tell, even in the shadows, that this was probably the biggest of the roaches… almost double the size of the other one he encountered.

*Thumthump!*

David's heartbeat was almost deafening, and he noticed that the roach had positioned itself directly in front of him. The door was only a few feet to his left… but he couldn't even feel his legs, much less run to the door.

*Clickclickclick!*

To David, it almost sounded like a challenge, or even a taunt. He raised his gun, his arm was shaking… he was loosing too much blood. The vision in his right eye was blurring, and some blood from his forehead was forcing him to close his left. The bug lowered to the ground, ready to sprint, the human sat up against the wall straighter. They both faintly heard the sounds of gunfire on the outside of the door, and it was getting closer to them by the second. "Wait for the right moment." David's mind sluggishly thought.

*RARRAWW!*

The cockroach had quickly charged at David with all of it's speed.

David aimed directly for the other eye, fully intent on taking it with him to the grave.

The roach's head was only two feet away now….

*BANG!*

Dream Sequence over:

"Guuuahh!" David gave a great inhale as he rose from his bed, covered in a cold sweat. He swung his legs over the side of his, admittedly, very large bed.

"Get the hell out of there!" he sleepily/angrily mumbled at his own horrifying memories, while grinding the knuckles of his right hand into his temple… his scarred left arm was sitting limply across his boxer-briefs covered lap. David stood up, grabbed a small remote from his nightstand, pushed play, and began to listen to one of Stevie Wonder's most recognizable songs: "Superstition". (I like to imagine that this scene is just an excuse to rip off of Will Smith movies.)

David began to do some stretches, a few jumping jacks, and took a couple swats at the speed-bag attached to his wall, before taking a quick shower/sing-along. He logged into his I-pod, and was going over some possible ideas for the Watchtower with Spark and Batman on his "JL" tablet. By the time that he reached the bottom of the stairs, he turned off his I-pod, and could hear the hectic sounds, that was his family at breakfast. They were never really wanting for money, but it was always a little cramped when ever the family was over… now there seemed to be extra space and some more lying around.

The first person that David saw, was his grandmothers, talking and cooking at the same time, they were very similar, one had been the head contractor/co-owner for a construction business, and the other had been a career detective… both had been absolutely ruthless when on the job, both of there husbands weren't afraid to admit it. They may have been old, but they hardly looked there age, sure… they had silver hair, but if they dyed it, you would mistake them for simply being in their mid-to-late 50's.

His mother was in the kitchen, but was simply waiting for them to finish, so that she could carry out plates. She was just like her own mother in the fact that she was a police officer, and then became a CIA agent like her sister. She was beautiful, was quite tall (all of the men on his father's side were short), and that just added to the fact that she could be one of the most intimidating women on the planet (to him at least). He came to the dining room table, and noticed his father.

David's father looked very similar to himself, but slightly taller, had a full mustache/beard goatee, and had grey sideburns that made him look like a distinguished middle-aged gentleman. His father didn't say a lot, but when he did say something, it was usually very important and useful information. The next person he saw was his youngest brother: Max… the boy adored David, and he happened to be his unofficial manager when David was boxing for the title.

Speaking of boxing, tonight was very a big night, tonight David would be pit against the newest Heavyweight Champion of the World, a man from one of the many "sub-towns" in New York… a Greek neighborhood known as "Astoria".

The man's name was Zeus, and he had a pretty inspiring story, an orphan found on the doorstep of a church, decided to go into the security business to help pay for the churches' upkeep. He had worked for a couple of companies, but when he was injured in an accident at a companies R&D wing, a scientist known as Tak Mashido, had given him the most advanced cybernetics that he could make, and his boss Farra Lemkova, had offered Zeus a very large some of money each year… if he could not only become a heavyweight champion, but keep the title all year round. Unfortunately, David's first appearance back in the ring, and in public, is Zeus's last fight of the year before his paycheck. This left David in a moral dilemma. Should he throw the fight? Should he try to win? It was only compounded by the fact that the entire Justice League would be in attendance, and working as his families' security for the night. He remembered how that conversation went with them:

Flashback:

Three days ago:

Watchtower:

Most of the heroes were just waiting around for something interesting to happen, others were working.

David had been under one of the computer terminals, and was being handed tools, and told specific lines of data by Spark, when she decided to ask : "So… I heard that you're going to be returning to boxing, and that your first match is with the Heavy Weight Champion of the entire world… who also happens to be a giant cyborg?" She asked, tying not to be awkward around the handsome human, that now worked for her… she was basically a female version of David… except green, and eight feet tall, and had a robotic arm.

*Bang!*

"Ahhh!"

David was shocked by what she said, and tried to sit up… only to smack his forehead onto the inner-frame of the terminal. When he pulled his upper-body out from the inside of the computer, he was met with curious gazes… except Batman, who was working on some algorithms with the Question… even Question had tilted his head in acknowledgement of this unexpected revelation.

"Um… pardon my lack of knowledge but… what is this "Boxing"?" Wonder Woman asked in curiosity of why Flash and Green Lantern were suddenly wearing excited expressions. (during that time period, from what I understand, they didn't actually have a name for boxing, as it was not an independent sport.)

"Boxing is a violence focused sport. There are two competitors, and a team of medical experts per competitor. The boxers are trained by group, or a single individual know as "coaches". These sporting events are similar to the "Pankration" event… however they are not allowed to use their legs, head, teeth, or fingers in the battle. The goal is to either knock your opponent into unconsciousness, or to gain a larger number of "worthy" hits to your opponent's body for a score. You are not allowed to hit the male genitals or female breasts, and head-butting is not allowed. Originally, boxing was derived from Pankration, but has changed greatly, over the years… for example, there is "Blood Sport" boxing, also known as "tape boxing" due to the fact that the fists are covered by an abrasive and sticky bandage like material that is supposed to be under a boxer's gloves. This type of boxing is not generally practiced or approved of, but is still considered a well populated form of endorsed violence." Wolf explained to her and the others who did not know, but quickly continued. (I'm now going to copy and paste from Wikipedia because they worded it far better than I could ever do, all credit for the wording goes to them.)

"There are four generally accepted boxing "styles" that are used to define fighters. These are the Swarmer, Out-boxer, Slugger, and Boxer-Puncher. Many boxers do not always fit into these categories, and it's not uncommon for a fighter to change their style over a period of time." (copy and paste: officially over.)

"You must also understand, that boxers wear specialized gloves and hand wraps that protect the hands and wrists from breaking… or at least, breaking incorrectly, in an incredibly effective manner… in other words: "You are more likely to break your opponents neck, or their skull, than you ever will be breaking your knuckles and wrists"." (this is actually something that my father, aka: my coach, told me when I first put on the gloves… it's not entirely true… but it's still fun to tell people.)

Flash had quickly zipped up to David and asked: "You're going up against Zeus!? Why didn't you get me tickets to this!?" he demanded while shaking the scientist by the lab coat so fast that it tore.

"I didn't think you guys would want to even come… or if you even had the time to see it. Besides, I don't know if Diana, Shayera, and J'onn would be comfortable being stared at the entire time." he responded. Topaz was quick to shoot down that idea:

"They won't ever get comfortable, if they never go into the outside world and meet people… it's settled, we're all going… all of us." she said, while looking pointedly at Question and Batman.

"This is gonna be weird, I can just feel it." David thought, while the other heroes began to tell those of the League that weren't "up-to-date" on who David would be facing.

Flashback end:

Bing Arena:

New York:

Night of the Bought:

Two commentators were discussing the current situation of allowing Zeus to fight against a still unidentified fighter, and this is the "tail-end" of their conversation: "- that they are Tim, and I think the "Zeus Camp" knows exactly what their doing." the first commentator said.

"Of course they do, giving the shot at the belt to this… nobody, from nowhere, this "Junkyard-dog" if you will… it's a marketing stunt! And judging from this crowd, I'd say it's working!" the second commentator responded.

The heroes had already been greeted by the family, and most couldn't help but chuckle at the fact that David's youngest brother was his manager, and was busy "getting pumped" for his brother's fight in David's locker room.

After a short while, the lights dimmed considerably, and a grey haired man in a finely pressed suit walked into the middle of the ring. A microphone had been lowered down from the cat-walk, and he began to speak:

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have gathered here, to bear witness to one of the greatest battles between two men to ever be conceived, and will be recorded for all of history. Ladies and gentlemen… please welcome the challenger, who has returned to the ring, for the first time in over two years! Haling from New York City!" he yelled, and once he finished speaking, a song began to play, and to the perspectives of Wonder Woman, J'onn, and Hawkgirl… the people began to go crazy.

(Seinabo Sey: "Hard Time" is the song that I used, let me know if you found a better song for the situation and the character.)

They all heard a woman's voice singing, and then they saw David walk out of the hallway/tunnel. He pulled back the hood, and the crowd went wild… he walked down the ramp, fist-bumping everyone who could reach. When he made it to the ring, he slipped in-between the ropes, went to his corner, and removed his robe… the entire building went silent, his scars stretched across his entire torso and left arm… it looked like he was body-slammed into a wood-chipper. The song had even slowed down to a few piano keys, and the young man looked about the stadium like it was heaven itself.

(about the 2:33 mark of the song, just so you know)

~This time I will be…~

~Louder than my words.~

~Walk with lessons that…~

~Lessons that I've learned.~

~Show the Scars I've Earned…~

~In the Light of Day.~

~Shadows will be Found…~

~And I'll Hunt Them Doooowwwnnn!~

David threw his arms up in triumph… and challenge, right when the drums started, and the crowd began screaming like their lives depended on it, alongside the chorus.

Wonder Woman had been told of how David gained his powers, and realized that combat would be the only place that he would feel welcome anymore… because combat was all he had beside his family. She realized that the people here, felt like their hero had come back from the dead, just to amaze them one, more, time… and she couldn't help but cheer loudly, for the shortest, and bravest, male warrior that she had ever met… her mother and sisters probably would have done so too, if they had learned of his story, and were present to feel the pure emotion that swirled through the building like a hurricane due to their empathy abilities, granted by the Greek goddesses.

The lights had dimmed slightly more, and the announcer had begun to speak again: "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, the defender of the title. The boxing champion, of this universe, and any universe, known or unknown… Bow! To the mighty Zeuuusss!" The wall behind Zeus was pitch-black, and the only thing that could be seen, is the glow-in-the-dark heartbeat armband, and his boxing trunks. When the announcer had finished, a very loud horn blew, and the wall behind Zeus lit up in lime green, as the titan of a man began to walk forward, flames spewed from the ground in the shape of lightning bolts… seven steps and seven pairs of flaming lightning bolts later, Zeus was still on the ground right next to the ring. The man simply jumped into the ring, in a single bound. The people seemed just as excited to see Zeus' arrival, as they were to see David's return.

"Sweet, bearded, baby, Jesus!" Flash exclaimed, and the other heroes were equally surprised that a human of that size, would be capable of doing that.

The two fighters touched gloves, and went to their opposite corners with blank expressions. David was wearing brown and grey trunks, with a bronze colored armband, "What's the armband for?" you might ask… it was made for the coaches of each team to monitor their health, and to have a "x-ray" view of their fighter's body, to ensure maximum safety. David's father put a small, Bluetooth device behind his ear, while Zeus' team did the same… these were so they could hear what their coaches were saying over the noise of the crowd.

The announcer began to speak again:

"In a bout scheduled for five rounds, for the World Heavyweight Championship, we have the challenger: David Roche… vs… the mighty… Zeus! Is the challenger, ready!?" He asked to David… who responded with giving out a few shadow jabs, making the crowd go wild.

"Is the champion, ready!?" Zeus held is arms up, and to the left side, he quickly flexed and the crowd went even wilder.

"Ladies and gentlemen… Are… You… Ready!?" he questioned the crowd, and everyone except for Wolf and Batman were jumping in place like a bunch of loons.

"Then… to the thousands in attendance… and to the millions watching around the world… we are… Rrrrrrready to Rummmmbbbbbllllleeeee!" the announcer all but screamed. (Michael Buffer is the greatest announcer to ever live… ever.)

*Ding!*

"There's the starting bell, and we are underway!" the first commentator spoke.

"The men emerge from their corners and-"

*Wham!*

*Thud!*

"Oh! Zeus decks David, with a brutal hook to the side of the head!" the man states, while David lays on the mat, face-down. The crowd gives out a collectively pained groan, the heroes and the Roche family more so.

Zeus looked at the man, and couldn't compare the legend that inspired hundreds of lower class kids to become fighters… to the man who was now on the ground from one punch, he almost felt disgusted. The large man turned around, and began to show off for the crowd, and for his kids in the audience. The referee was already counting, when David's brother skimmed to the other side of the ring to shout: "Push up!"

David's head was already hurting… it felt like someone had hit him in the head with a hot-dog cart going waaaay over the speed limit, but… he couldn't just lay here all night… he still had a fight to finish. The shorter man pushed up off of the mat, and was immediately assailed by Zeus' powerful blows.

"Look at this! The little man is already back on his feat!" the second commentator had blatant shock in his voice… he was a supporter of Zeus it seems. *Wham!* *Wham!* *Thump!* Zeus had delivered a crushing jab, and a hook that knocked David to the floor a second time.

"David is down for the second time, in less than ten seconds!" the first man stated for those listening, or just tuning on their televisions.

"Damn! He's too strong! He's too strong!" David's father stated to the rest of the corner with "Team Roche" written on their shirts.

"C'mon, no! Please Dave, get up! Get up, please! Max screamed to his eldest brother, who was on his belly again from such powerful punches. The short man began to rise up for a second go.

"Once again, the challenger finds his feet!" Zeus began to deliver slow, methodical punches, that continually pushed David into one of the corners of the ring.

"Now, he's getting pummeled into the corner!" the second man yelled.

"Move David! Move!" David's father bellowed, but as the small man tried to slip away, he walked right into a devastating gut-shot. The punch literally lifted the smaller man off of his feet!

"Ooooh! An absolutely demolishing inside-shot by the champ!" the first man stated, and Zeus quickly began delivering crushing, strait-punches to David's face… the man tried to cover-up, but his own hand was hitting him in the face instead.

*Wham!*

The heroes grimaced when they heard a man with a southern accent in the crowd say: "Yeah! Crush that little turd!" When David tried to slide out of the corner, Zeus gave him a huge uppercut, that put most of his upper-body over the ropes. The scientist flopped to his hands and knees, but before he could rise, Zeus gave powerful jab to his forehead.

*Bam!*

"Good night sparring partner! It might have taken Zeus a little bit longer, but he's done it again!" the second man yelled.

"David is down for the third, and possibly, final time tonight!" the first predicted. Max Roche looked to the sky in prayer, before he began to yell.

"Get up David! … Get up!" after the words left his mouth, David's eyes snapped open, and he quickly sat up, as the referee got to the number "five". He stood, and turned to his disbelieving opponent.

"I don't believe this! This little man is on his feet again!" the first man said. The crowd was cheering, and- *Wham!* - Zeus just punched him into the corner. The large man rained blows onto his smaller opponent like a hurricane of bruises.

*Wham!*

"Right uppercut!" David's father ordered.

*Bam!*

"Oh my god! An uppercut lands by David!" the first man said in surprise, while Zeus backed away several steps, rotating his jaw, eyes wide in shock.

"The champ is stunned, and reeling by a punch that he, clearly, never saw coming!" exclaimed the second.

"Advance!" Charles Roche ordered, David doing so without hesitation.

"Lean back, counter right! *Wham!* Lean back, counter right! *Wham!* Right cross! *Wham!* Right cross! *Wham!* Left hook!" *Wham!*

"For the first time in his dominant run… Zeus has met a man that simply won't, back, down!" the first man said in astonishment.

"The crowd is going nuts, as Zeus gives it everything he's got, as we reach the last fifteen seconds of round one." said the second man.

"You bet! As Zeus is pulling double-duty with both fists! *Wham!* *Wham!* *Wham!* Down-town! *Wham!* Up-town! *Wham!* As the clock ticks by!"

Just when Zeus was about to deliver a devastating final blow:

*Ding!*

"I don't believe it ladies and gentlemen! We will have a second round!"

Montage Time!

Round 2:

"Round 2 kicks off, and incredibly, the challenger is giving the champ a run for his money." the first man says, while David dodges around Zeus' strikes skillfully.

"Zeus tosses the smaller man across the ring like a toy!" the second man exclaims as David bounces of the ground several times.

"The elder Roche working his son with a trifecta of strait rights to the champ's dome!" the first man states, along with the three blows producing deafening sounds across the arena.

Round 3:

"Toe-to-Toe they stand, trading powerful blows!" the first man said, while David slipped under a left hook to deliver a left of his own.

"What ever strategy either corner cooked up, has been destroyed!" the second man yelled excitedly.

"Skin bruising skin: Bones breaking bones! This is a brawl!" the second man exclaimed when Zeus dealt a painful liver-punch to David's… well… liver.

"The crowd is on their feet, watching two men driven to kill each other! Something has to give… and it does! David goes down again!" the first man yells when David takes a powerful cross to the jaw that knocks him onto his belly again.

"Lights out for the "Junkyard-dog" who put on a heck of a show here tonight!" the second man boasts.

"And yet again, David rises up! This young man must have been born with a will to go on!" said the first man

Round 4:

"Mid-way through round four, and Zeus is looking to end this thing right, now." the first man explained.

"The champ is holding nothing back, as he cracks open the "hurt-locker"!" the second man says, while Zeus gives a hook right into David's ear, unknowingly, the ear with the headset behind it. The blow made David's head spin, and all he could hear now was static, as he stumbled around the corner of the ring. "David is stumbling around the ring… he's disoriented and dazed!"

Zeus began to deliver machine-gun punches to David's stomach and ribs, with almost no end in site… even Hawkgirl cringed a bit when David started spitting up blood.

*Ding!*

"But the bell sounds, and once again, this little man has stunned the world!" exclaimed the first man.

Superman was listening in on the conversation between Max, David, and Charles and told everyone what was happening… the earpiece was broken, and David's concussion wasn't helping him when it came to thinking quickly and clearly. Max suggested that David should shadow Charley… Charley had quickly denied it, saying: "I can't do it!"

This prompted his wife to explain that he had lost his leg to a drunk driver during the peak of his carrier in boxing, and then lost confidence in his abilities, even though he was still in spectacular shape. David had quickly agreed, and the two brothers gave their father the all powerful "puppy eyes". ( though for David, it would be "swollen eyes".)

Round 5:

Final Round:

"There is an epic battle being waged tonight, as the fifth and final round gets underway." the first commentator said, as both boxers began delivering blows like nobody's business, and then Zeus had backed David into a corner.

"I gotta tell ya folks, the champ looks tired! This man seems to be running on empty!" the first said, when Zeus' hits became slower. David then gave his opponent the universal "bring it" motion, that even J'onn understood. "I don't belive it! David is taunting Zeus! He's actually asking for more!" Zeus then hit him with more rapid punches, at an incredible speed.

"David is being riddled with the adrenaline fueled guns of Zeus' blows."

Zeus began giving even more rapid fire punches, but eventually, slowed down.

"David!"

"David!" The crowds began to cheer-on the smaller fighter.

When Zeus began to slow to a stop, David moved in with a powerful uppercut. The larger man had put his arms over David's shoulders, trying to stay standing, but this left him open to David's own, powerful, machine-gun punches. The heroes and the Roche family noticed how David and Charley seemed to be in perfect synchronous… this was the return of David… and the last hurrah of his father.

"David's coming in with a left, a right, another left, a right- *Boom!* - a huge uppercut by David, and- *Thhuboof!* -Oh my god! Zeus is down!" Everyone was one their feet… Batman was even clapping a little, and had a small smirk on his face.

"This little man has dug deep here tonight, and shown us all what it means to have heart!" The referee had made it to the count of "six" before Zeus pushed up with all of his might. David gave no breathing room, and began to wail on his opponent with an almost primal gusto. Just when David was about to deliver a finishing blow:

*Ding!*

"By god ladies and gentlemen, there's the bell! Amazingly, we will have to go to the judges cards!" the two commentators were bouncing around in their booth, just like everyone else in the arena.

The announcer returned to the ring, and the lights had dimmed again. The Roche family had already made it to the ring… and they, along with the heroes, had begun congratulating the young man on an absolutely incredible fight.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we will now go to the judges score cards… Judge number one scored the fight: 47:48... Judge number two scored the fight: 48:46... Judge number three scored the fight: 47:46, for the winner and still Heavy wight champion… Zeuuuus!" the crowd began "booing" and Topaz had to stop Wonder Woman and Hawkgirl from starting violence… by gesturing to the father and his two sons.

They had smiles on their faces, and they weren't upset, because they knew that they still had a long way to go before they became the champions… that, and they had to smile at Zeus holding his children on his shoulders, while his wife kissed him.

The first commentator, walked up to Zeus "manager" and asked: "Farra Lemkova… you got way more than you bargained for tonight… but some would say that "Zeus won the decision… but lost the fight." how do you feel about that?"

She responded with: "It took a bit longer than we thought… but the result was as excpected… we won… Zeus is still undefeated." the crowd hated that, and Tak Mushido had simply stormed out.

"Max?! Wheres Max!?" the man asked, looking for David's manager. After some encouragement by David, he ran up to him with a smile. "Max… as we speak, people are already calling your big brother… "The Peoples Champion" -everyone began cheering at that- What do you have to say to that?" the man asked.

The boy looked over to his brother, his family, and the superheroes that his brother was friends with… after getting a smile out of his brother, he said: " People's Champion? Sounds pretty good to me!" the crowd went wild. Spark had walked up behind the boy, picked him up, and placed him onto his brother's shoulders, while still holding him steady. The crowd began to cheer, and the boy held his arms up with a huge smile on his face.

Before the two fighters could have their gloves removed, David ran over to Zeus and gave the giant man, a brotherly hug. The larger fighter returned it, and couldn't help but laugh when the short man said: "Zeus… you're a good champion. A damn good champion!"

"Thank you. You don't know how much means to me to hear you say that." the large man's voice was smooth and quiet, but held a vast amount of dignity and respect.

"No. Thank you. Thank you for giving me this opportunity… giving me a chance to live again." David said, while giving the larger man a fist bump.

And so, the heroes had spent the rest of the night with the families of both fighters as they had all joined up, and went to a nearby restaurant.

During that time, Wolf realized that there was still hope for the world, as long as there were still people like David. The alien bio-weapon, knew a future legend when he saw one, and he had high hopes for him… he just didn't like how close his youngest sister was sitting to him.

Whew! That was pretty tough, but boy was it fun to wright!

The main characters of this story, in case you couldn't tell… are Wolf and David, and there will be some chapters that focus on other characters but… they are kinda important to the story.

As always, comment, and leave suggestions,

Next chapter will be a bit… Wet… if you know what I mean.
