The Set up

The news of the Posse split spread through TW like wildfire. Martin had acquired many new friends since he broke away from Kevin. But what really surprised Martin was the fact Vinny, Tyson and Brett had joined him.

Martin had known his split from Kevin and the Posse was immanent. Martin had not liked taking orders from a 14 year old punk.

Martin knew he also had to big tough challenges coming up. One from Taylor for his title and one from Corwin and Drew.

As Martin walked through the TW arena the next day, he was met by Elton.

"Hey man wise move." The black muscleteen said to his buddy.

The two MW had formed a bond even though they had beaten the hell out of each other in a title match.

A title match that had seen Elton worked over before hand by Corwin and Drew.

"It was a long time coming. Started before you and I teamed up, but that only added fuel to the fire."

Elton nodded. "Hey man, rumor is the Outlaws want a rematch. Game to team up again and kick their asses?"

Martin grinned thinking back to the squash they had dished out to the former chumps.

"Always game to work those two smart mouth pretty boy faggots over." The MW champ said with a slight grin.

Both teens laughed as they thought about squashing the OUTLAWS again.

Little did they know Taylor had overheard their conversation.

Taylor was on a recruiting mission for Kevin. Kevin wanted some new Posse members and Taylor had his sights set on one awesomely tough lightweight.

Taylor was not happy with the turn of events, but he accepted things as they now were.

With Martin out of the Posse, Taylor was sure to get his title shot. He knew he could take the so-called MW CHUMP.

Taylor wanted to get it on with Martin right now, but he had other things to see to.

He ducked into the weight room and spotted Jacoby.

Taylor had been impressed with Jacoby since he had squashed both Patrick and Joey. Taylor thought Jacoby was to the LW division what he was to the MW division. Unbeatable.

Taylor had one loss to Frank and only because Frank had cheated to garner it. Taylor would avenge that loss shortly, but he had other more pressing ass kickings to dish out.

Jacoby noted the Beast's entrance. He noted the cocky arrogant swagger as the tough muscle-bound teen walked over to him.

Jacoby stood to his feet ready to accept Taylor's challenge. He had a gut feeling it would be an awesome match up.

As Taylor paused in front of him and sized him up, Jacoby wondered what kind of awesome tag team they could make. Both were brutal wrestlers with a strong desire to win.

The two tough guys locked eyes. Both teen's eyes held a challenging stare.

Taylor was impressed. Jacoby did not back down or break eye contact. He knew this kid was tough.

Taylor finally spoke. "Got a proposition for you, Jacoby."

"Let me guess. I am the Beast's next victim." Jacoby said cockily.

Taylor grinned. He really liked the idea of taking the tough lightweight on, but he knew Jacoby would be no walk over.

"Nah, something more beneficial to you and me."

Jacoby raised an eyebrow. "Beneficial? How?" Jacoby wondered what this kid was up to.

"You're a loner, much like me. But I think we should work together. You need friends and we need a tough LW like you." Taylor said as he placed an arm across Jacoby's shoulder.

Jacoby nodded for Taylor to continue.

Taylor went on. "We need you. You would be an asset to the Posse. You're tough, brutal and have the qualities we are looking to recruit in the Posse. How bout it?"

Jacoby started to say no right off, but held his response. He contemplated the repercussions. The Posse could give his career a big boost. It had all the elements he liked. It had the Beast and the Outlaws. Guys that he would like to have as friends.

"Tell you what tough guy, I'm in on one condition." Jacoby said as he looked Taylor in the eyes.

"What's that?" The Beast asked the tough LW wrestler.

"You arrange for me to get a shot at the LW title or have Kevin set it up." Jacoby said with an evil grin.

Taylor was not sure Kevin would go for that, but then again Phillip was the LW champ and had to defend against all challengers. Taylor knew Jacoby deserved the title as much as he deserved the MW title. "Deal." Taylor said as he extended his hand to Jacoby.

Jacoby shook Taylor's hand. Taylor was right he needed friends and backing. Especially with Wes and Willy after a piece of his ass.

Taylor and Jacoby headed off together. As they left they were observed by Martin and Elton.

Martin was surprised to see Taylor with the tough LW loner. But Martin knew Kevin would be hot to recruit new tough wrestlers.

** The Next Day**

Things still had not settled down the next day. Rumors were spreading like floodwaters as guys wondered how long it would be before the two different factions clashed.

The other rumors going around were whom Kevin and Martin would recruit as allies.

Kevin was happy with the addition of Jacoby to his stable. But he was not happy with the deal Taylor had struck. Kevin knew Phillip could not handle a powerhouse wrestler like Jacoby.

But there was nothing saying Jacoby had to face Phillip for the title. He just wanted a title shot.

Corwin and Drew were settling in nicely. They hit it off with Taylor quite well.

The Outlaws were still coming to terms that they were no longer alone. They now had some tough allies to watch their backs.

Taylor and the Outlaws agreed to a practice session later in the day. Taylor agreed to take both the Outlaws on in a handicapped practice match. Kevin had smiled. He had no doubt Taylor could take these guys, but then again Corwin and Drew had beaten some tough tag teams.

**TW Practice Arena**

Taylor was in the practice ring waiting for his workout partners to arrive. He was doing some stretching exercises in the ring when he heard the door open. Thinking it was Corwin and Drew he did not stop or turn around.

He heard the two teens climb in the ring. He started to get to his feet when his arms were grabbed and he was gut busted hard. Taylor rolled and looked up into the faces of an angry Elton and Martin.

Before Taylor could react Martin knee dropped his groin and Elton sent a power punch to his sternum. Taylor gasped out in pain.

Elton then drug the muscleboy to his feet and locked on his patented full nelson.

"Now fucker gonna teach you a hard ass lesson." Martin spat out as he drove two snake strike blows to Taylor's ripped eight pack abs. 'Gonna teach you to interfere in one of my matches." Martin was ready to take Taylor apart as Elton held him in his unbreakable full nelson.

Taylor was winded but laughed out loud as Martin drill his powerful abdominals. "Fuck you, CHUMP. I can take any thing you can dish out."

Taylor started to muscle free from Elton's full nelson. Elton was incredulous as Taylor started to break his hold. As he did Elton busted his balls with a knee between his legs. Taylor had a sudden intake of breath. Martin saw his cue and powered three hard fists to Taylor's ripped abs.

Taylor grunted loudly as Martin's snake strikes tore into his unflexed abs.

Martin teed off on Taylor's midsection like a man possessed. He slammed fist after powerful fist to the ripped wall of awesome muscle. He was intent on breaking the hard ass muscleteen down.

Taylor was breathing hard as he started to feel the powerful snake strike blows.

Elton pulled Taylor way back stretching his abs tight and giving Martin the perfect target to pound on.

Taylor was straining and breathing hard.

Martin let go with a barrage of ten double fisted blows to Taylor's muscle-bound stomach.

Taylor was sweating and gasping for breath as he was brutally double-teamed.

Martin stopped his power punches and locked a double ab claw on the mighty muscleboy. Taylor grunted but did not scream out.

Taylor felt Martin's powerful fingers rearranging his muscles. He closed his eyes and tried to hang on. He knew Corwin and Drew should be here soon.

Corwin and Drew were running a tad bit late. They had hit rush hour traffic on their way to the TW arena.

They rushed to the workout gym to meet Taylor.

As they entered they saw Elton and Martin pounding the shit out of their ally.

They could see Taylor had already taken a hard beating.

The sweat glistened on Taylor's ripped physique as martin powered in his double abdominal claw.

Corwin shot Drew a quick grin and the two teens dropped their gear and hit the ring.

Like a well-oiled machine Corwin and Drew leapt in the air and double drop kicked Martin from behind.

The MW champ crashed into Taylor and Elton knocking them into the ropes.

When they hit the ropes Taylor pulled free from Elton. He dropped to his knees sucking wind and clutching his sore stomach. As Taylor dropped Drew hit Elton with a spinning heel kick to his chest.

Elton flailed back to the ropes and sucked wind.

Corwin was all over Martin. He stood back and slammed kick after kick to the MW champs ribs and back. Corwin then double knee dropped Martin's back and locked him in a vicious camel clutch.

Martin grunted loudly as Corwin worked him over.

Drew meanwhile was hammering hard fists to Elton's stomach. The tough black MW was holding up well under the barrage of power punches.

Elton finally had had enough. He drove a knee to Drew's nuts. When Drew doubled Elton smashed his elbow down to the base of Drew's skull.

Drew crumbled in a heap.

Taylor was back on his feet and sent a super kick to Elton's back. Elton flew into the ropes and ricocheted back toward Taylor. Taylor laced his fist together and drove them hard to Elton's back.

Taylor watched Elton pitch to the mat face first. He leapt in the air and landed a leg drop across the back of Elton's head. Elton lie there dazed and sucking wind.

Martin had finally broken free from Corwin's camel clutch. He had flipped Corwin off and was muscling the Outlaw to the corner.

Martin drew his hand back and readied to tee off on Corwin's abs for a second time. As he did Taylor gripped his wrist and spun him around. Taylor shot a straight right hand to Martin's head, decking the MW Champ.

Drew was back on his feet and climbing to the top rope. Corwin and Taylor spread Martin flat out in the center of the ring. Taylor held his arms and slapped his face as Corwin held his legs. Drew leapt from the top rope and landed with both knees to Martin's muscular stomach. Martin folded in half from the powerful blow to his gut. Drew stood from the chump and double stomped his gut. Martin was hurting big time as he got triple teamed.

They rolled Martin from the ring and focused on Elton. Elton saw them coming and rolled under the ropes.

Elton moved over to assist Martin to his feet. He could see his buddy was really hurting.

Martin stood shakily to his feet and glanced at Corwin, Drew and Taylor. "Want you three assholes in the ring. Six man tag."

The Outlaws and Taylor ginned. "You got it chump. After that I want my title shot." Taylor spat back as he ripped his hard abs and flexed his big biceps.

Martin flipped Taylor off. "You got your title shot, fucker. This time I will whip your ass."

Martin and Elton went to find a third man.

Taylor, Corwin and Drew exchanged high fives in the ring.

They headed off to tell Kevin of the impending match.

When Kevin was informed he smiled evilly. He knew the Outlaws with Taylor's aid could crush Elton, Martin and whoever he chose as a third man.

Later that day as the match was being signed tempers again let loose.

Both factions were in the workout room when the commissioners brought the contracts.

Tyson and Brett were arguing over who should be Martin and Elton's third man. They both hated Corwin and Drew wanted to finally get a chance at squashing them. They knew they could not handle the Outlaws alone, but could easily whip them with Martin and Elton's help.

Kevin decided then and there to make it an eight teen tag.

"All right. We go eight teens. Taylor, Rusty, and the Outlaws versus Elton, the chump and the wuss boys." Kevin said as he eyed his former teammates. Kevin had always felt The Bad Boys were over rated.

Martin glared at the 14 year old weasel. He really had come to despise Kevin.

Martin could take no more. He rushed Kevin and drove him to the floor. Martin fired two hard fists to Kevin's soft stomach. As he readied for a third he was kicked hard in the head by Rusty.

Martin fell from Kevin dazed. Kevin got to his knees and sent a thrust to Martin's throat causing the MW champ to gag.

Vinny moved quickly and speared Rusty to the floor. Vinny nailed the judo champ with a headbutt then drug him to his feet, lifted and power slammed him to the floor. As he turned Taylor slammed a mighty muscleboy fist to the side of head.

Brett and Tyson moved on Taylor. Before they got far Jacoby leveled both with a double clothesline.

Corwin and Drew had moved to Kevin's side in case Martin decided to attack. They watched as Martin climbed to his knees. Corwin moved quickly and sent a mean kick to Martin's underbelly flipping the Champ to his back. Kevin then sent another karate thrust to Martin's throat.

The three commissioners quickly got between the two warring factions of TW.

Once the guys had been forced apart they discussed the upcoming match.

It was clear the battle lines were drawn.

Corwin and Drew were not overly happy at the prospects of a super brawl. They wanted Martin and Elton to themselves.

Kevin and Martin exchanged hard stares and Martin said "That's enough of this shit. Five man teams. Me, Elton, the Bad Boys and Vinny against whomever you want to chose. Kevy."

Kevin smiled. "You got it, Chump. My team will be The Outlaws, Rusty, Taylor and my newest member Jacoby."

Tyson, Brett and Vinny were shocked that Jacoby was now a member of Kevin's stable.

Martin scowled but nodded.

Kevin continued as he jabbed a finger into Martin's chest. "After this super bash Taylor gets a title shot. After that The Outlaws get you and Elton in a tag team rematch."

Martin started to protest, but he knew he and Elton could crush the Outlaw wimps a second time. It was Taylor that scared him. But he could also deal with Taylor before the match. Martin was not above having his opposition crushed.

"Deal, Kevin." Martin said.

The two leaders of the warring TW factions moved and signed the contracts, followed by all the wrestlers involved.

Martin did not care who he had to face as long as he could get his mitts on the Outlaws and Taylor. He wanted to put a hurting on those three cocky ass teens. But Taylor more than anyone. Martin still cringed when he thought about the brutal NHB ass whipping Taylor has given him a few weeks ago.

Corwin and Drew were already formulating a game plan for getting even with Martin and Elton. Corwin owed Martin a good working over and Drew wanted revenge on Elton. Both he and Corwin had taken a tremendous beating from the two tough MW.

Tyson and Brett had their sights set on Corwin and Drew. The Bad Boys had lost every match against these Pretty Boys. They wanted to crush the Outlaws.

Taylor wanted to crush the MW chump then focus on the black muscleteen. Taylor disliked both guys and he wanted to crush them into the mat. He wanted to hear Martin scream out in submission to him again.

Rusty and Vinny did not care who they got to beat up on.

Jacoby was ready to take on anyone. He just wanted to prove himself as an asset to the Posse.

As Martin and his group exited Taylor called out. "Savor your title, WIMP. It will be mine real soon."

Martin stopped dead in tracks and turned to face Taylor. Everyone moved to stop them from locking up.

Martin glared at Taylor, "Asshole you will be the first eliminated."

Taylor grinned and got cocky. "By who. There is no one on your team that can take me."

Martin said nothing but turned and walked away. He had no doubt Taylor was right. He had battled Taylor a few weeks ago and gotten his ass kicked hard.

Strategy would play a big part in both teams desire for victory. Martin knew if his team was to stand a chance they had to go after the muscle power. That was Rusty and Taylor. Martin knew having Tyson and Brett on his side could prove to be the weak link, but he also knew if he kept them in together they would hang tough.

Elton was no problem. He was tough. Martin knew above all Elton could be trusted.

Tyson and Brett were not so sure of that. To them Elton was an outsider. They knew Martin and they knew Vinny. But Elton was not an original Posse member.

But they did trust Martin and they would continue to do so.

On the flipside, Kevin had to name a Captain. He decided on Rusty. Corwin and Drew were still stuck in tag team mode, Jacoby was a newcomer and Taylor like Martin was a hothead.

Kevin told the five guys to concentrate their efforts on taking out Elton and Vinny. He told them Tyson and Brett were wimps and could be taken out at any time during the match.

Kevin knew Taylor wanted Martin badly.

Both teams had two weeks to prepare for the match.

The commissioners had made it clear there would be no pre match scuffles. If there were those involved would be barred from the match.

Over the next two weeks Taylor, Rusty, Jacoby and the Outlaws worked out long and hard together.

Martin drilled his team through their paces as well. This match meant a lot to both teams.

The closer the match got the more nervous the teens became.

They knew this was going to be a WAR.

==The Battle lines are drawn==

To be continued.
