Chapter 2

By: Silverback Christianpaw

Testify

I didn't get very much sleep last night after all that went down between myself and Polarity. She called me a few minutes later but I refused to answer the phone because I needed to calm myself down. After a few attempts I finally answered the phone and she said emphatically, "WE ARE THROUGH!" before she hung up.

She sent me a text message this morning saying to call her when I can. But I don't want to talk to her right now.

Zenaku, after seeing what went down on the monitor in the back, came and found me and basically took care of me while I was dealing with all of this. He is a wonderful friend no doubt. I started feeling better about everything until I got a phone call, this time from Ms. Draxa telling me to come to the GRR offices before I left for the next live event. I spent half the night praying, but I still worried about whether or not I was going to be fired.

"I'm going to be fired, aren't I?" I ask Zenaku as we walked down to her office. I felt like I was when I was a pup in elementary school and I got sent to the principal's office for throwing rocks.

"If she is, I'll talk to her and see if there is something we can work out," he says. I think I would have been more comfortable with him lying to me saying that everything will be fine. But that may not be the case here.

I look at the door outside her office, it's just a regular-sized door but it may as well be twenty stories tall. I take a quick deep breath and knock.

"Yeah," I hear Ms. Draxa say on the other side.

I open the door. She's in a meeting with a big white tiger and two huskies.

"Glad you came by Testify, I'll be right with you," she says.

Zenaku and I just stood there, hoping my legs don't start shaking. As she keeps talking to the three other guys I just focus on what she is saying, maybe it will take my mind off possibly being fired.

I watch as the big tiger's tail swings back and forth. This guy is Soultiger, the GRR Champion. I feel very intimidated because even though I had been here for a few months I had never been in the same room as him. Same with the other two, the husky brothers, their waists were also shimmering with gold; they are the GRR Tag Team Champions. This trio is some sort of a clique because they never dressed or trained with the rest of us in the locker room. They always get their own personal locker room and they all come to the shows in big luxurious limousines. I hope to get to that level someday; I really hope I don't get fired.

"Alright we'll discuss later, as you can see I have another meeting to attend to. Good evening gentleman," Draxa says to the three.

I watch at the champion is heading for the door, which me and Zenaku have been having trouble moving from, the champ looks at me. I extend a paw.

"Hello sir, I'm Testify Fox." I put on a fake grin. But he just walks past me and leaves.

One of the husky brothers look at me, "The champ doesn't talk to people he doesn't know," he says in a snooty tone before leaving us.

"Testify, alright let's talk," Draxa says to me. I extended my paw to her and unlike Soultiger she takes it. She folds her arms over and leans a little bit on the desk, she's probably fuming,

"Alright, now just to start, you are clear of what you did right?" she asks.

I put my head down, "Yes ma'am."

"You walked out on your audience, an audience that is expecting to see you compete. They pay their good hard-earned money to come to a GRR event to cheer who they want to cheer, and boo who they want to boo."

I nod my head.

"But at last night's episode of Uncensoed you walked out on Polarity on a mix tag team match. So I need to ask, why?"

"Well ma'am, Polarity and I had been having trouble on the road over the last few weeks."

"Mhmm, I believe that."

Zenaku rubs my back, "Well, I tried not to let these types of things affect my work, but since she is also working for the company, it makes it much more difficult. And last night, in my defense she was doing things that were unbecoming of a GRR wrestler."

"Yeah, she's a trouble maker," she said. I almost turn my head for a second; I didn't expect her to say that, I'll just keep going. "Plus she had also distracted and cost me the match I had with Pump Panther the night before, and I just didn't want her to do that again, or anything else that I felt she knew was wrong."

"We'll I certainly can't get mad at you for that."

I put my head back up. "Really?"

"Of course, each and every wrestler knows to abide by the rules and are in charge of keeping everything safe, because this is a dangerous business."

My tail starts wagging a little bit, it doesn't sound like I'm getting fired.

"So . . . am I getting fired?" I ask.

"Fired? No of course not."

"I don't even know why he even said that Ms. Draxa." Zenaku says.

She sits back down in her office chair, "No, you are not getting fired; however, I don't want you to think that I approve of this, and I certainly do not want you walking out on the audience ever again."

"I never will again," I smile and extend my paw again. She takes it with a smile in return.

"Wait, so that's it? That's all you wanted to say?" Zenaku asks.

"No, I also wanted to bring up one more thing, now, I don't know if either of you saw what happened after the match but Polarity," she sighs, "was so upset that she kicked the referee right in his testicles and then continued beating down Dust Wolf in the ring."

"Whoa," Zenaku said it for me.

"Wow, really?" I ask.

"Yep, and because of that I have suspended her without pay for two months. I met with her after the match and she gave me a verbal beatdown of my own. I actually had to get the security to escort her to the locker room to get her stuff and leave the arena.

"Holy shit," Zenaku says.

She continues, "So I don't blame you for leaving the match mid-way. And also I understand that you haven't been in this business for very long, I know it's difficult, I've had to deal with these big guys for years and sometimes it can be very intimidating, but I just have to get through it and realize that it's all part of my job."

"I'll bet," I say.

"Yeah, I just wanted to bring that up to you. Now I want you and her to resolve your problems outside of the ring. I don't want anything like this happening again. You got that?"

"Yes ma'am," I'm so excited, my tail is wagging, hehe yay!

"Good, alright I'll let you guys run along. Did you get the e-mail I sent both of you yet?"

"Um, no I didn't," I said.

"Yeah, me neither," Zenaku says.

"Guh, I'll just have to re-send it. Change of plans regarding next week's Warzone, I have officially made next week's main event a 20-man over-the-top-rope battle royal, and the winner will be the number one contender for the GRR Championship."

"Sweet, are we in it?" Zenaku I could tell was excited.

"You are both in it."

"Yes!" he looks at me and we high-paw each other.

"I wish you both good luck." She smiles.

"Thank you Ms. Draxa," I say.

"No problem, have a good day you guys."

I leave the office almost in shock, all my praying had to have paid off. Because I walked out on a big televised match, being watched by millions, and she said it was okay. I didn't get fired. I didn't even get a fine or anything. God is truly on my side.

"Oh man," Zenaku says smiling. I smile wide and almost jump into his arms as I hug him.

"Oh wow, I can't believe what I just heard. All my praying must have paid off."

"Hehe, yeah I guess so. I had no idea that Polarity got suspended though."

"Yeah, no kidding." My tail swings happily.

"Oh, hold on," Zenaku says to me. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out his phone that is vibrating and lighting up.

"Hello?" he says. "Oh hello husky, what's up? . . . Your job interview is tomorrow? Oh well then good luck buddy. What? . . . Hm, hold on."

"You mind, if a friend of mine shares a hotel room with us tonight? He says all the hotels in the city are all booked up and he has nowhere else to go," he says to me.

"Where am I going to sleep?"

"Well he can just sleep with me."

"Okay, but no sex, I don't need to see anything I don't want to see," I chuckle.

He smiles, "I'll try, this guy is pretty persuasive." He goes back to his phone call. Which reminds me; I still have a phone call of my own I have to make, to Polarity.

* * *

I walk out of the bathroom just getting off the phone with Polarity, I didn't think I could feel so deflated, but at least it's finally over and now I can get back to being normal again. Zenaku lies on the bed watching TV.

"You okay foxy?" he asks me.

I try to hold the emotion in, but once he asks something like that I can't hold it in any longer. Tears start flowing down my face, "I need a hug."

"Awww," he gets up and hugs me tight. I breathe in and out slowly trying to keep a hold of myself. "It's okay if you need to cry hun, I'm right here for you."

I keep taking deep breaths, "Thank you." The fur on my face feels like it's about to fly off but I keep trying harder not to breakdown. I know it's not good to keep emotion in, but I don't want to break down in front of a friend, I'll wait until I'm alone to do that.

"Are you okay foxy?" he asks again.

I look up at his golden eyes and try to face him, showing that I'll be fine but the tears start spurting out again. I dig my face back down into his chest. His scent comforts me, I breathe in that wonderful scent. It does its work, I start feeling a little better.

"I'll be fine," I struggle to say. He lets the hug go, I could have hugged him for a good three days but I know I can't.

"How bad was it?" he sits me down on the bed.

"It was kind of what I expected. She yelled, I yelled, she yelled some more, I said 'I don't want to see you ever again' and that was pretty much it." Sigh.

"How do you feel?" he rubs my shoulders.

"Meh, a mix. I feel bad that it had to end this way and I'm single again, but I also feel glad because now all this is finally over."

"Yeah, you don't need somebody like that in your life. You deserve somebody better, much better than her."

I chuckle a little and rub the snot from my nose, "Thanks."

"No problem cutie, hehe." Again with those little pet names he slips in. Ah, screw it. He's been here with me all this time, I don't care what he calls me anymore, I'm just glad to have him around.

Knock-knock-knock.

"Oh, that must be Slutsky," Zenaku leaves the bed to go for the door.

"Slutsky? That's his name?"

"Yep, Slutsky Husky," he says.

"Interesting name."

"Yeah, his name was James but he changed it."

He opens the door and a tall husky, not nearly as tall as Zenaku but taller than me, and definitely better muscularly built than me, walks in.

"Hey, wassup wolfy. How is everything?" he hugs him and licks his face.

"I'm doing good; but my best buddy here is getting over a girlfriend."

The husky sets his bags down and immediately walks over to me, he seems very happy to see me, I don't know why though.

"Aww, girls are no fun," he sits down on the bed next to me and opens his arms for a big hug. Maybe this is where Zenaku got his open arm 'please give me a hug' look. I give him a hug and he gives me a little lick on the face. "Mmmm, Zenaku you were right, he looks as cute as a box of puppies."

I start blushing, even though it's from another guy I still take a compliment as a compliment and it makes me feel good.

Zenaku looks at me and sits across from me and looks deep into my face, "Ooh, Slutsky, I think you made the fox blush," he chuckles.

"I did?" he hugs me tighter with a big smile, "Well I can do more . . . if he wants." I start feeling a paw rub my butt. I break away nervous chuckling, Zenaku has done this to me ever since I met him so I'm used to this.

"I'm fine, thank you though."

I start seeing what Zenaku was telling me when he lays on the bed in an alluring position and starts rubbing the crotch of his pants. "Are you sure? Are you not even a little curious?"

Okay, I'm not used to that, "No, I'm fine, really."

He goes back to sitting on the bed, "Okay, well if you ever want some just let me know hun."

"Will you quit hitting on my fox?" Zenaku jokes.

"Oh hush, both of you can kiss my ass," I say.

Without missing a beat both of them say, "I'd love too."

I just look back at them and just open up my bag and pull out my laptop. I know if I say anything else it will somehow get turned into a sex joke of some kind.

"Okay wolfy," Slutsky says to Zenaku, "I've been running around all day and I need to take a shower so I can look at least somewhat pretty for Ms. Draxa tomorrow."

"Go for it," Zenaku lies down on the bed and goes back to his TV while the husky gets some cleaning stuff out of his bag and goes into the bathroom. I turn my laptop on and wait for it to boot up. I look at Zenaku rest and relax with his eyes closed on the bed. He looks so peaceful. And he really helped me out a lot today. I would have been an emotional wreck if it wasn't for him. It's amazing what kind of friend God has given me. You know, I kind of wish I was gay, because I would love to be with somebody as caring as him. But I know I'm straight.

I keep looking at him. I want to do something. I want to snuggle and cuddle up with him. I mean that would really make me feel better. I really don't care if he hits on me; at least somebody finds me attractive and wants to be with me.

I get up off the chair and slide next to him in the bed. He looks at me, somewhat strangely,

"You ok?" he asks.

I smile wide and place myself under his arm, "Yeah, I'm fine." My tail wags.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, I'm a little emotional but alright. You really made this a lot easier for me."

"No problem hun, I'll always be there for you," he smiles. I smile back. I want to wrap myself up in that smile. I love him. But of course I love all my friends. I've always been a very loving fox, so hit-ons don't offend me or anything like that.

"Would you mind if I slept with you tonight?" I ask him.

"Oh . . . you sure?"

"Why? Do you not want me to? I mean, I understand if you'd rather sleep with him, he's probably more fun--"

Zenaku gets my attention by poking me in the chest, "Hehe, I'd rather sleep with you, I just don't want you to be uncomfortable."

I smile and snuggle up with him, "I won't be."

I rest my head on his muscular chest, breathing in that wonderful scent again, I never want to leave. He rubs my ear gently with his paw. Mmmm that feels really good. This feels really good. I wish that I could get this my whole life and not just in this moment.

Silverback

I jump and stretch, ready and pumped up for this battle royal. There's a few guys left as they all get introduced one by one down to the ring.

Coach Striker preps me, "Alright my boy, give it all you got, there's a lot riding on this," he didn't have to tell me, a shot at the World Championship is up for grabs here. He looks around the room and grabs my paw and pulls me into a dark corner,

"Good luck love," he whispers. We kiss. That sweet muzzle taste giving me instant gratification. Now I'm really ready for this battle royal.

I walk back out with the rest of the guys as they get ready to go.

"Hey guys!" Soultiger comes up and announces to us, "I would wish you all luck," he chuckles to himself, "I mean whoever wins this battle royal will become famous . . . famous for getting the biggest ass-kicking of a lifetime when they get their title match." He chuckles, "Good luck!" he wishes again. I growl under my breath but then my music cues for me to go out there,

"Silverback, you're up," an official with a clipboard says. He stands next to the black curtain as I quickly grab a water bottle from the table and take a quick swish of it before I walk out there. The great GRR fans stand and cheer for me. It's cool to be loved. Oh wait, focus, I have to go through nineteen other guys to get my shot at Soultiger. Coach has been telling me I have the advantage because I am one of the biggest guys in the federation, so it's going to be hard to lift me over the top rope and throw me out to the floor.

I slide into the ring. I keep jumping up and down as I mentally prepare myself for what could be one of the biggest matches of my life. I've got this chance and I'm not letting go.

* * *

Ding-ding. The bell sounds. I just throw my fist in any direction and it hits the top of a wrestler's head. But then one clubs me in the back with a hard fist and then another and another. Off to the races I go!

I turn around and look down at the little jaguar that is hitting me in the back. He looks at me, there's fear in his eyes, perfect.

I grab him by his face and toss him. His feet leave the ring canvas, over the ropes, and hit the floor on the outside. Eliminated! I turn back around and these two huskies come and both give me a high kick in the face. I step backwards and feel the rope rolling on my back. One of the huskies kicks me hard in the face again and I feel myself almost go out so I quickly turn myself around holding the ropes close so I don't possibly go over. I quickly look under and deliver a back kick of my own, knocking down one of the huskies. For the other husky I give him a knee to his belly and grab him by the throat and toss him over the top rope. This is easier than I thought.

I do whatever I can to keep fighting and keep myself from getting tired. I turn around and am welcome in the waiting arms of Pump Panther before he locks his arms under mine and suplexes me, almost on top of my head, on the canvas. I'm dizzy but try to quickly shake it off. I see the bottom turnbuckle pad in the corner and grab it to pull myself back up but a quick stiff pain in my side knocks my back down. I sit in the corner as the panther stomps me down. He grabs the rope and sticks his foot in my throat and pushes it in with all the force, I'm sure, that his body has. I reach up and try to push his big foot away but his force is too strong. No, he's not too strong, not for me, I can do this. Coach said I can and I believe everything the love of my life says. I grab his ankle and try to push it away. Harder and harder I push until I decide to turn it.

"Guh!" he gives up. He gives me one more stomp to my chest before he decides to leave me and go for somebody else. I pant as I sit in the corner. Coach said it was smart in matches like this to stay in the corner as long as you can, because out of sight out of mind.

I pant trying to regain as much breath as I can while I watch guys start throwing other guys over the top rope one after another. I watch some tag teams in this battle royal join up together and deliver double impact moves eliminating people while other guys who I have never seen work together suddenly work together.

Like Testify and Zenaku, I have never seen them work together. But they both grab each other's paw and clothesline an unsuspecting mouse over the top rope.

BAM! Damn attention span! A horse just punched me and he grabs me by the neck and pulls me back up. He chops me in the chest and then grabs one of my legs and slings it over the top rope. He tries to lift the other leg but I struggle to keep hold of the rope so I don't get eliminated. He yells struggling to get me up. I quickly give him a few punches on his back, he lets go. I get my leg back over inside the ring and give him a chop to his chest. I toss him into the corner and give him a few more chops for good measure. He holds his chest to cope with the pain. I take two steps back and then charge with a clothesline across his face and he goes over the top rope.

The ring is starting to clear out, there is only about half the guys left. I focus and see a rabbit standing in the corner just chilling there watching everybody else get killed. I run and charge him as fast as my big body will let me. Unfortunately it wasn't fast enough because he gets out of the way leaving me to hit sternum-first into the turnbuckle.

He grabs the back of my leg and tries to lift me up, he lifts me much more easily than the horse did and almost gets me over the top.

"Ahhh!" I yell trying to hold on.

He huffs and puffs more and more to get me over. He gives up when he gets my whole body on the top rope. He rears back with a kick to the face. I fall off the top rope but land on the edge of the ring and quickly grab the bottom rope before I can get taken down to the floor. He yells as he kicks me more and more trying to get me to let go, but is unsuccessful. I roll underneath the bottom rope to save myself. But the merciless bunny keeps hammering on me. I get to one knee, he keeps hitting my back. I get to my feet and he punches me across the face. This rabbit is starting to fucking piss me off. He punches again, I start to growl. He isn't frightened as I grin my teeth and he goes for another punch, I block it and give him a hard punch of my own right in his little face. He backs up into the corner and I unload on him harder and faster than ever. I'm angry, I want to win this match, and this little piss-ant rabbit isn't stopping me. I punch him more and more before I grab him by his trunks and toss him over the top rope.

I pant. It feels good to eliminate him out of this. I turn around to see a husky come at me, he clothesline's me right in the face but not over the top. I get ready to fight him off but before I know it he turns around and gets super-kicked by somebody else so hard in the face it sends him over the top rope and out to the floor. I look and see it's Testify that gave him that kick. He goes for another kick, this time on me, but I catch his foot and pull it over the top rope. I grab him and try to lift the rest of his body over but he hooks my head and hits me several times in the face, it hurts, I have to let go. I back away holding the burning pain in my face, hoping he didn't give me a bloody nose. I check for blood, it's clean.

There's only five guys left in the match. Man, everything has been so fast-paced I haven't been able to keep track, but now I can, it's five guys in this ring, Zenaku, Testify, Pump Panther, Kaien Fox, and myself are all who's left. And only one of us is going to get that title shot.

I try to rest in the corner, now I need to; the fatigue factor is starting to set in. Zenaku kicks Kaien in his belly and he goes down. The big black wolf grabs the fox his hips and swings his whole body up over his head, turns around, and hurls him over the top rope leaving him to land on two wrestlers that are still on the floor after just being eliminated. It's now down to the final four. We all stand in our corners to size up our competition.

"Come on Silver!" Testify looks at me in the corner next to mine. Zenaku and Pump already start going at it one on one. I growl and charge him. He stops me with a kick to the gut and a quick side-headlock. He holds tight to my head as his feet climb the turnbuckles in the corner and when he gets to the top he pushes off it and flips backwards, leaving me to fall onto my back. He gets back up and gives me one more hard kick in my side before he leaves me to help Zenaku who is trying to take Pump over the top rope.

I cough but keep growling, got to stay tough. I see Testify with his back to me helping the wolf get Pump over, now's my time to pounce. I quickly run up and grab Testify by his leg and I toss him over the top rope. Yes!

He looks at me with some shock in his face and then it turns to immediate disappointment knowing he has lost this match. The crowd cheers with every elimination, and I'm ready to give them more.

Zenaku keeps trying to take the big black panther over. I grab the panther's legs that are lying across the top rope trying to hold on. I push them off the top and soon his whole body comes tumbling out of the ring right along with them.

Zenaku looks at me and I look back at him. The crowd starts to shout and cheer for us, only two left, me and my opponent. Only one of us is going to get the shot at the title, and it's going to be me.

I take a few steps back, trying to let the crowd's cheers to energize me after this grueling match.

We both go for each other and lock up in the center of the ring.

"Ahhhh!" I push myself as hard as I can and push him to the ropes. But the cunning wolf swings around and grabs me by my leg but I furiously hit him over and over in the back of his head to let me go. He backs up again, I take a breath and charge him again. But in an impressive feat of strength he picks me up in a bear-hug position and slams me back down in a furious spinebuster. I can hear the crowd's oohs and aahs as my body hits the canvas hard. He gets up and backs himself up off the ropes and comes back down with a heavy forearm across my face.

"Ruff!" That move hurt me a lot.

"Come on! Get up!" He yells at me. I turn over and slowly get back up to my feet. I look in the corner of my eye and see one of those husky brothers come back into the ring under the bottom rope with a steel chair in paw. He runs in and aims it for Zenaku but he gives him a swift kick to the gut, dropping the chair. I get up and see Zenaku pick the steel chair up, which is perfectly legal in this type of match-up, and he swings it.

WHAM! The chair hits the husky across the face and he goes sailing over the top.

"Keep your ass out of the ring!" he scowls at him . . . Now's my chance!

I run up and hook my arms between one of his legs and with all my strength I lift him up and he goes over the top and hits the floor.

The crowd goes into a sudden immediate uproar as the bell dings and my music starts to kick on.

A referee slides into the ring and grabs my paw and raises it high above over my head in victory.

"Here is you're winner . . . . Silverback!" those words from the ring announcer blast all throughout the arena. Oh man it feels so good. I let myself drop and crawl out under the bottom rope as I start to walk up the ramp. I raise my paws in the air. Yeah! This is so awesome! I feel something come behind me, I turn and it's Coach,

"You did it! I know you could do it!" I give him a quick hug as we go up the ramp.

Some short ferret carrying a microphone runs up the ramp to meet with us,

"Silverback, how does it feel to be the number one contender for the GRR World Heavyweight Championship?" he asks me.

He sticks the microphone in my face. I try to say something but I'm so tired and speechless all I can do is pant. Coach grabs the microphone from the ferret and says, "Silverback is ready to face Soultiger for the championship and not only that, he is going to kick that feline's ass up and down that ring when the time comes. But for now you better get out of here because me and the big wolf here are going out to celebrate. He pushes the microphone into the ferret's chest, almost knocking him down as we continue to make our way up the ramp. I'm coming for the title!
