Date: Mon, 9 Jan 2017 18:07:12 -0500 From: J Subject: TRIO Water Battle 1 The three camp managers decided to give the fans something they would not soon forget. it would be a three way battle in the water. A large pool was dug in the center of the arena. No expense was spared in its construction. The pool covered almost the entire area of the arena and could be covered up and saved for future uses. The way the fight was to work was simple. Three boys from each camp would start. The boys would be grouped into three groups of three (one from each side) then those groups would be evenly spaced around the big clear pool. All would be naked and weaponless save for their bare hands. At the start of the match all would dive into the water and try to make their way to the center of the pool where a large wooden raft supported by barrels floated. On that raft contained a variety of weapons; two long tridents with 5 inch tines, two long whaling harpoons with rounded not barbed tips, two long, slender. lightweight javelins like the ones used in track & field competition, two mechanical spear guns that could be used above or below the water with three spears each and finally two slender 3 foot rapiers. Once a boy reached the platform he could select one weapon but ONLY one. Dumping weapons over the side to prevent others from using them or grabbing a second weapon would be a foul and the archer boys were always ready to apply the penalty for a rule violation. If a boy was disarmed by an opponent that would be his tough luck. The managers had further decided that they would select one boy from each camp to make up the 9 combatants. Innout had gone first and selected from Igno's camp: Young, well muscled Gregory; From Jim's camp the tall lanky older teenager Chad and from his own camp the young but spry looking Beau. Now Jim faced his own boys ready to choose. He cast his gaze on his brave, well trained warrior boys. Damn he was proud of them. Even in defeat they gave their all. His eyes rested on the boy he had good reports about for swimming ability. At first glance one would not think Brad good in the water. The 11 year old was big for his age as puberty had staked an early claim on him. But Brad still sported an ample layer of baby fat. It was flab that Jim knew would be gone in a year or two, assuming Brad lived that long. "Brad!" Jim said "I'm told you are a good swimmer. Is this true?" Brad knew better than to lie, "Yes Sir. I am a very good swimmer. Before my parents were killed I helped my father everyday. He was a fisherman so I'm well acquainted with water sir. I won't let you down!" "Very well Bard you will represent out camp in the water battle along with Chad." Jim turned to face the rest of the boys. "Let me hear you show your support for BRAD AND CHAD!" Jim's entire camp let loose with a loud roar of cheers and converged on the handsome lad. They hoisted the two onto their shoulders and began a chant of "Brad and Chad!..... Brad and Chad!....Brad and Chad" Jim smiled at their youthful enthusiasm. He wondered who Igno would choose from his camp. But as he looked at his squad he knew a poor choice could not be made! Jim then moved to the assembled boys in Innout's camp and looked them over. The boys stood in rows naked and ready for inspection. Jim marveled at Innout's taste and knew that he would be lucky to find a poor fighter among them. But a good contest was the point of it all. Jim's eyes rested on an obviously young but quite tall, and muscular lad. The boy could not have been more than 13 but he already stood nearly 6 feet tall. He wasn't particularly handsome but the lad had something about him that made him down right irresistible. Jim walked over to the strapping boy, "What's your name!" "Otin Sir!" Jim patted the youth's rock solid abs and pectorals. Perhaps this boy's muscles will be detriment to him in the water Jim thought. "Otin, I select you to be in the coming water battle." Otin simply said, "I gladly accept the honor. Thank you!" Jim moved to the last camp. Igno's. Jim met Igno at the front gate. The big man bulged with muscles. Strenght seemed to radiate from every one of the handsome man's pores. "Welcome Jim. I await your selection." "My pleasure" Jim said and as he looked at nearly 100 naked boys lined up in perfect row formation standing at attention (some boys in more ways than one) it was indeed a pleasure. Jim gasped at the beauty of some of them and congratulated Igno on his taste. But Jim knew Igno was too shrewd to simply choose gladiators on looks alone. Jim knew each and every one of these seemingly angels could deliver death quickly and efficiently in various ways. Again a poor selection could not be made. Jim's gaze fell upon a stout looking boy much like his own Brad. "That one Igno. Who is he?" Igno said, "His name is Aaron. Does he appeal to you?" Aaron looked to be 11 or 12. A small amount of dark peach fuzz grew at the base of his maturing dick. He sported a tad bit of baby fat like Brad and had the same dark hair & complexion. "He does indeed" Jim replied, "I choose him!" Igno smiled. Jim had unwittingly selected the brother of Gregory, Innout's selection. Having brothers together could be a big plus from Igno's side since they knew each other so very well. "Very well then! The selection has been made. Aaron you will join your brother Gregory in the water battle." Jim looked shocked, "You mean Innout selected that boy's own brother?" Igno smiled sly, "Yes...Ironic isn't it?" He then laughed as he walked Jim to the gate. "Congratulations on a fine selection Jimmy!" Jim could hear the mocking in Igno's voice and he hated to be called 'Jimmy'. Jim turned, the angry making his face red. Igno knew he had gotten under his skin and just smirked making Jim even angrier. "Thank you for your hospitality Iggy! We'll see each other when the fight begins I'm sure." Jim turned and stomped off. It was now Igno's turn to flush red with rage. 'Iggy' was a name he had come to loath and Jim knew it. Igno would relish seeing Jim's boys perish in the coming fight. With 6 of the combatants choosen only Igno's choices remained to be made. But As Jim already knew from looking over all three camps. Igno could not choose a poor fighter.
