Danny vs. Lucien- Prologue idkat1

Danny's loss to Tommy hurt him more mentally than physically. His pride and his reputation took a very bad blow. He was seen by the other lightweights as being a weakling after his bad showing against Tommy especially during the gutpunching.

This angered Danny and he became obsessed with proving to others his toughness and his ability to withstand punishment. He adopted his own "No Pain.No Gain" mentality. The other lightweights thought it was all just talk and continued to label Danny as gutless. They were all blown away though when they heard Danny issued a challenge to Lucien who easily accepted.

Several lightweights approached Danny and told him he was flat out crazy to step in the ring against Lucien but he just smirked and said to them, "No Pain,No Gain". Only Chaz expressed little concern for Danny. He was anxious to see what Danny could take and had been thinking himself of taking on a heavyweight to see if he could raise his tolerance for pain. As he left the locker room, Danny looked back at his fellow lightweights and said "You guys can think what you want but I'm gonna do whatever it takes to win out there". Lucien approached the ring first and entered. At 5'10" and 252, his gigantic protruding gut was all that anyone ever saw.

Danny slowly came down the aisle to the ring.

At 125, he was half the weight of Lucien. In another bizarre move he entered the ring to wrestle barefoot. He removed his shirt to reveal a boyish tan and soft undefined stomach. Then he removed his funky jeans and stood in front of his opponent in a red speedo. The girls went wild and this made Lucien angrier. Danny represented everything Lucien could never be as a teenager.

He had to settle for being the fat pudgy spoiled kid nobody wanted around.

It was extra hot in the gym that day. The air conditioning was busted and everyone was sweating even before the match began. The bell rang and the wrestlers circled the ring as the other lightweights watched from the back of the gym.

Lucien tried a number of times to reach for Danny to get him in a collar and elbow but Danny used tremendous speed to circle around the ring making the big guy chase him. As he reached again to grab Danny, Danny slid low like a base stealer and tripped Lucien causing him to land face first to the mat. Lucien got up right away and chased Danny all over the ring but could not catch him. Danny repeated the move again and Lucien again hit the mats this time striking the back of his head. As Lucien paused for a moment on the mat, his legs were slightly spread apart. Danny approached swiftly and quickly punched Lucien as hard as he could in the groin. Lucien wailed in pain as Danny was right on the mark.

Lucien rolled over with his hands between his legs and his stomach faced the mat. Danny then repeatedly stomped and punched Lucien in the back. His stomps though had little effect without any heavy boots on. Nevertheless, he continued over and over again for several minutes as Lucien completely ignored the attack on his back as he tended to his manhood. Danny continued his assault but he was punching himself out. His attack got weaker and weaker and his upper body was completely engulfed in glistening sweat.

Suddenly, Lucien turned and rose toward Danny, who backed away just in time to avoid being hit. Danny was breathing and sweating heavily and now was not quick enough to outrun Lucien. For some reason, in desperation perhaps, Danny charged at Lucien who this time tripped Danny and then fell quickly on top of him. He then picked up Danny and got him in a face to face bearhug. He began squeezing Danny mercilessly as he yelled in agony.

"Submit! You little wimp!" , Lucien yelled. Danny moaned and said "I'll never submit to you Fat Boy!".

Lucien became angrier and tightened his hold.

"AAAaaahh!!!", Danny yelled in a blood curdling scream, his skinny arms flailing loosely in the air. As he started to feel he was passing out, Danny, in a desperation moved, reached down and gauged both of Lucien's eyes with two fingers on each hand.

  Lucien released Danny who fell to the mat. Lucien started to have a panic attack and started yelling and swinging wildly in the air. Unfortunately for the referee, one of those swings connected with him and knocked him out. Lucien continued to freak out. "I'm blinded", he yelled.

Meanwhile, Danny crawled to a corner of the ring and tried to hoist himself up.But as he reached with both hands for the top rope to pull himself up, his skinny and crushed belly caused him so much pain that he kept reaching back to it with his hands to nurse it.

Chaz yelled from the back of the gym, "Get Up Danny, Get Up! No Pain, No Gain! " Danny tried several more times and then fell sideways along the ropes to the middle where the ropes had more give. He tried from there to get up and finally succeeded rising in the direction of the crowd but by now it was too late. As he turned around, he was met by Lucien standing right in front of him . He had regained his eyesight and now proceeded to tie Danny's arms up with the two top ropes. Lucien was now ready to finish Danny off.

Meanwhile, right about now,heavyweight Dane arrived through locker room street entrance to the gym and saw the lightweights watching something from the other doorway. Dane went over to the doorway and looked in horror as he saw Lucien, whom he hated with a passion, tearing Danny apart.

Lucien looked at his helpless opponent as the sweat beamed down Danny's tan boyish body trickling into his belly button. He slugged Danny right in that target. Left. Right. Left. Right. Each time Danny's head would jerk back and forth taking the punches. His moans grew weaker with every powerful fist driven into his soft belly. To his credit, Danny took about twelve punches before he finally appeared to go out.

Lucien was not finished though. The behemoth grabbed a bucket of water from outside the ring and threw it in Danny's face. "Wake up, Puppy Dog! I ain't done yet." Danny woke up slightly for about five or six more blows.

By now, the referee had regained consciousness and Lucien was getting tired himself. He untied Danny and again put him in a bearhug and ordered him again to submit but Danny was out cold and could not hear him. The ref quickly raised Danny's hand three times and watched it drop three times and then called for the bell. He immediately ordered Lucien to release the hold but Lucien refused over and over again only tightening his grip on poor Danny.

Finally, Dane charged out of the locker room and into the ring and surprised Lucien from behind. Lucien dropped Danny and turned towards Dane who scooped Lucien up and body slammed him to the mat. Lucien quickly scattered out of the ring and a little ways up the aisle towards the locker room. Dane yelled, "I'll settle the score with you later,Fat Boy!". A stunned and worn out Lucien was in no mood for a fight with Dane right then and there so he retreated to the locker room flipping the bird to the booing fans as he went down the aisle.

Meanwhile, Dane picked up the battered and destroyed Danny and carefully carried him out of the ring to the locker room. As Danny moaned in Dane's arms, the heavyweight asked without getting an answer, "My God Kid! What were you thinking when you stepped in the ring with him!".
