“It's hammer

Today I read
about professional wrestling. (Browsing through a website on
television things). I also read about lawyer shows. Anyway onto the
flash fiction!
Professionally
Wrestling Lawyers
“The
Prosecutor grabs the bench and...smacks it right over the Defense's
head! What a match!” The commentator yelled. He really wished he
was payed by the exclamation. He'd probably retire earlier than
anyone else if he did. Well it depended on the rate for each
exclamation was. And did that steady booming voice that he used to
drag his words through the crowd's ears count?
“HE'S
GUILTY!” The Prosecutor shouted as he jumped at Defense. The
commentator felt embarrassed at that line. He thought to himself.
Randy, what are you doing here? These have got to be the worst
wrestlers in the world.
Randy
commented for some things that didn't deserve comments at all. Why
couldn't he be on television like he wanted? Somewhere big. He wanted
his voice to ring all over the nation. It may be an egotistical
dream, but he wanted to be heard all around the nation.
“HE'S
INNOCENT!” The Defense countered the Prosecutor and tossed him over
his shoulder.
“What
an amazing counter!” Randy yelled.
Randy...Randy....
What-what...is
that a voice in my head...besides the one that's my thinky thoughts?
Yes
Randy...I am the spirit of wrestling...one of the many sport
gods...and I have the answers you seek....
Really...?
That doesn't make a lot of sense...
Look in
about ten minutes I need to meet with a wrestler who just got in a
car accident and got handicapped and can never wrestle again. His
emotional issues are far larger and devastating than yours so do you
want your spiritual guidance and free epiphany or not?
Um...sure.
Okay
commentator. One thing that you have to realize to be a successful
commentator is that wrestling is like a book. And you are its
narrator. And um...that's all I got. Mostly the gods give me these
similes or metaphors and you're supposed to figure them out from
here. So yeah. Good luck.
That really
doesn't help much.
Well that's
not my problem is it? Now I'm off to help that handicapped wrestler.
He's got way more issues than you pal.
And
so Randy thought about the spirit's guidance. The Prosecution
shouted, “Objection!” as he got the Defense into a hold. Randy
decided to at least try something and pull his commentary in a new
direction, giving the tone in his voice a new vigor,and he talked not
at the audience but to them. He put a sort of emotion into it that
weaved it better with the action on stage.
Eventually
he did reach to television like he wanted. Was it just hard work or
the spirit's guidance? Perhaps his new style shared the same style as
a narrative weaving with the action in a story but it was pretty dumb
and vague guidance so it was hard to tell. Really the football spirit
gives much better guidance.
