CHAPTER ONE-


It was a beautiful day and as Mark looked out the window he wished more
then anything that he could be out there enjoying it with his friends. But
even know he didnt like to admit it he had known that he was taking the
risk of getting injured when he had gotten in the ring not feeling 100
hundred percent. He had know that the chance of him coming out soarer then
normal were extremely high. But he had still taken that risk and now he was
paying the price.

Mark Harris even though only fourteen knew what it was like to feel extreme
pain. He had been training to be a wrestler since he was 8. And for the
last eighteen months he had been a member of a little known organisation
called the American Teen Wrestling Federation. (ATWF). All his life he had
dreamed of becoming a professional and he hoped this might be his first
step. He knew he had talent. The men who ran the organisation told him so.
At first he thought they had been only telling him that to cheer him up.
But lately they had been putting him in matches against some of the higher
up boys.

The ATWF had three major titles that the boys competed for. The ATWF junior
title. This was for boys who were under the age of fifteen. There was a tag
team title. Then there was the ATWF World Title. This was the big one. The
one they all aimed for. There hadnt been a boy to hold this title who was
younger then 16. Mark dreamed every day that he would become the first. And
It was widely considered a fairly strong possibility. While in no way was
he the best in the federation he was definitely an up and comer.

During his time at the federation he had made quite a few friends. But
unfortunately he had also made a fir few enemies with his 'Take no shit
from nobody" attitude that he had had since he first started out. His
biggest enemy was the current World Title Holder. Billy Thompson. Mark and
Billy had become instant enemies especailly after Mark had turned down an
offer to join Billys faction. The 'Wolfpack' as they liked to call
themselves were a group of six boys. All arseholes to boot. Ranging in age
from Billy who was 16 to there youngest Ryan who was 14.

When Mark had joined the federation the wolfpack had held all three of the
titles and were generally dominating the entire show. When Mark had his
first fight it was just an average fight against another relativekly new
wrestler. Mark had been in fact poised to win the match when the ring was
invaded by the wolfpack. Billy and his henchmen had started to attack Mark
and his opponent Tristan. When Mark felt as though he could barely breathe
Billy had said to him. "This is youre one and only chance, we're recruiting
and we want you. We want an answer by next week." Then they had left the
ring.

That next week Mark had nearly killed himself trying to decide what to
do. When the next wrestling show had arrived he still wasnt sure what he
should do. He had run into Tristan and the two had talked briefly. It turned
out that Tristan was in a match that night against one of the wolfpack
members. Just before the maych had started Billy found Mark backstage and
told him."If you want to make it in this business you have to join us. Go
out there and make sure that Tristan doesnt win. If you do this. You are in
our group. Its as simple as that." Then he had walked away with a hit
eating grin on his face. Mark was in turmoilas the match started. He knew
that if he helped the Wolfpack his chances of making an impact were
higher. But he also knew he didnt like Billy and it bothered him what might
happen later down the track.

As the match had gone on Mark watched on. He made a decision to get
involved. So he slowly made his way to ringside. When Billy (who was
standing at ringside for 'moral support' had seen Mark he had smiled from
ear to ear. For a few moments Mark had just stood watching then he saw
Tristans oponent, Christopher, suddenly nod to Billy. It didnt seem anyone
else saw it and Mark hadnt been sure what it had meant until he saw Billy
distract the ref before sending him to the mat with a right punch. The ref
was down and Billy came over to me holding a steel chair. He handed it to
me and nodded towards the ring.

Inside the ring Tristan and Chris were locked up and were struggling for
supremacy. Mark climbed into the ring chair in hand. He looked at the ref
to make sure he was down. then looked at Billy who merely nodded. Mark
turned back to the wrestlers. Chris was grinning like a cheshire cat as he
moved away from Tristan to allow Mark a clear shot. Tristan looked up at
the boy with leading eyes. Begging him not to do it. Mark leaned back and
just ashe was about to startto bring the chair down he quickly swivelled
and clocked the stunned Chris accross the top of the head.

Tristan immediately got up and when he saw Billy climb into the ring he
warned Mark. And without even thinking of the consequences he levelled the
older boy. As the two memebers were layed out in the centre of the ring
Mark had looked at Tristan and they both had left the ring and the arena
for that fact very quickly both knowing that they were going to be in deep
shit when the guys came to. They got into a taxi and left headed for Marks
place. And on that night had started one of the greatest rivalries in the
history of the ATWF. But it had also started one of the biggest teams of
friends in its history as well.

From that night on Billy had done everything in his power to make the two
younger boys lives hell for them. Thus far though he hadnt succeeded,
though he had definitely made it intresting for them. The next time the
federation met the commissioner, who Mark soon discovered did basically
anything Billy asked of him, had put Mark and Tristan in a match against
Billy and the Junior Title holder. When Billy had enforced it as a
no-disqualification match Mark had known it wouldnt be a fair fight so he
came up with an idea of his own. He went to the actual owner and requested
that seen as it was no dq's he asked that it be made a match with both the
World and Junior titles on the line. Meaning that if Mark and Tristan were
to win the match whoever got the pin or submission would then get whatever
title the one they pinned held. Damien, the owner, had considered it but
didnt give consent until just before the match started.

When Billy and his partner Stephen heard the announcement they were
furious. But not having any other option other then to fight the match had
started. It had been an out and out brutal match. Billy twice tried to use
a chair on their opponents, three other members of the wolfpack came out to
intefere during the match. It ended when Billy was attacking Tristan on the
outside which left Mark and Stephen in the ring. Mark was losing the battle
and when Nathan the youngest member of the pack came into the ring with the
chair it looked academic. Stephen was holding Mark up so Nathan had a good
shot but at the last moment Mark was ablke to duck and the chair connected
with Stephens head. When Nathan had dropped the chair Mark had grabbed him
delivered a DDT on the chair then he had covered Stephen. The ref counted
three before Billy had a chance to do anything. Mark was the Junior
champion.

Once again Mark and Tristan made a hasty exit. It had been a miracle that
they had survived and didnt want to take a chance on being able to
celebrate long enough. Thry figured the wolfpack wouldnt allow it
anyway. So instead they had gone to Marks house and celebrated. The only
problem being that Mark was startingto realise he felt something towards
his new friend. And while he had always known that he was gay he was in no
way out and was afraid that if Tristan was to discover the truth their
friendship might be over.

Now as Mark sat there recovering he smiled at all of the memories. He had
told Tristan that he was gay about a month after that night. Tristan had
been shocked but had told him that that was okay. But he made sure that
Mark knew that he was staright. It had been such a weight lifted off of his
shoulders. Mark had held the junior title for close to three months before
losing it to Nathan. But by the time he had lost it Mark and Tristan had
won the tag team titles of the wolfpack. So he still held a title. Him and
Tristan battled some matches together and some seperate as singles. At the
moment while Mark was earning a shot at the World Title Tristen was getting
a shot at the Junior title. They hoped wothin a month or two they will have
both suceeded.

They trained together every day and always had each others backs. They had
helped each other out numerous times over the course of the year and a
half. But last night had been different. Mark was in a number 1 contenders
match. If he won he wouldfinally get his shot at Billy title. But Mark knew
Tristan wouldnt be able to help him because of the fct he wasnt going to be
at the show. Mark had been still sore from a match the week bfore where he
had twisted his ankle. He had been given the option of not fighting but he
had wanted the shot at the title so badly he had ignored his doctor's
warning and had had the match.

Now as he sat here he was partly regretting his decision because his ankle
had flared up. But he was glad because he had won the match and now he
finally had his shot to becomeworld champion. He figured he had at least a
fortnight before he would have to fight the match. And he knew that he
woulf be fine by then.

Marks thoughts were suddenly interupted by his phone ringing. He leaned
over and picked up the reciever. "Yeah this is Mark." There was a slight
pause on the other end of the phone before the slightly shaken voice of
Tristan came on the line. "Hey Mark its me" Mark immediately knew something
was wrong apart from the shakiness of his voice Mark knew that Tristan
never calls during the day unless something big has happend. "Hey Tristan
whats wrong why are you upset." There was another long pause before Mark
heard Tristan gulp. "Oh my god Mark youre not going to believe this, I just
got off the phone to Damien. He told me the worst news imaginable...."

Mark was becoming scared what had shaken Tristan up so badly.
"What,... what is it." Mark looked out his window and saw it was becoming
late afternoon. "Youre title shot. Youre match against Billy...... its to
be fought on Friday night." I nearly passed out."
