Today's #flashfiction #ProfessionallyWrestlingLawyers

“It's hammer time!”
Thor* #quote


      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.
