David storms into Andrews family barn. Andrew is shirtless but has his suspenders up. His back is to the angry David who takes big strides in order to reach Andrew.
You lied your ass off to try and get my spot on the wrestling team! David yells, But it didnt work. Were wrestling tomorrow and when I beat your ass...
But David doesnt finish. Andrew turned around with a thick branch in his hand and slams it into the side of Davids face. (He was stacking chopped wood before he was interrupted.)
If anyones ass is going to be beaten its yours, Andrew says as he noticed David already had his shirt off, and thus was ready for a fight.
David shakes it off just in time to stop Andrew from hitting him again. A kick to the side makes Andrew drop the wood to the ground. A back-kick to the gut has Andrew jarred a little. But only a little. Davids punch is blocked and his hurt jaw is on the receiving end of Andrews cocked fist.
The trouble with you... Andrew says as he uses the still held arm of his opponent to bring David close enough to land a knee in the gut, ...is you think youre so hot doing that karate shit.
Andrew then slugs the sore jaw again, You dont have the balls to be a real wrestler.
David goes down to the ground as Andrew picks up the dropped branch. He swings it like a bat and lucky for David hes able to block it with his arm. The downed man retaliates with a upward kick to Andrews balls. Andrews shock gives David enough time to get a good grip on the branch and shove it into Andrews chin. Andrew still has his hands on the branch as its continually thrusted into his face.
David finally pulls the branch away and tosses it to the side. Andrew instinctively dives toward David but thats the wrong thing to do. David sidesteps his opponent and takes him to the ground. Putting a well placed knee on Andrews back, David wraps his hands under Andrews sore chin and pulls back. Andrew claws the dirt soil as his head throbs in pain.
Letem up! yells a man entering the barn. It was their wrestling coach, I thought something like this was gonna happen.
David gets off Andrew and stands back. The coach just stands there as he waits for Andrew to get to his feet on his own.
He takes his time, but when Andrew finally gets to his feet the coach says, I saw the whole thing. You think youre gonna be on my team with that kinda attitude? You could have seriously hurt him.
Turning toward David, And you. I told you to stay clear of him until you were on the mats tomorrow. Get in the car, Ill take you home.
As David leaves he hears the coach chewing Andrew out even more followed by several whimpering responses of, Sorry, Dad.
