      Pit Fighters 1. The Opportunity - Rick Griffin

      Pit Fighters

      1. The Opportunity

      By Rick Griffin

      Smashwords Edition

      Copyright 2019 Rick Griffin

      The Island of St. Marten-Cristo

      They’re spacing now—each one sizing up the other—though Sultan seems to be the only one standing straight. He’s a stone pillar, folks, can anything Farin does even bend him a little? Perhaps with a forklift, Colin.

      The television was muted to preserve the gentle stillness of the island’s natural beauty, intercut with scrolling closed captions of the color commentator. Blitz tried not to gawk at the TV screen featuring the famous-and-humongous kangaroo Sultan, engaged in a brawl with Farin the boar in the Three Circle Arena.

      The blue rabbit nursed his citrus smoothie with the boredom only a college student could muster, ignoring his long ears flopping along the wind line. Although the dark clouds threatened another rain, for the moment, the sun shone from the east. The billowing wind tasted warm and fresh and salty, and the outdoor cafe aside the grocer kept the awning back and left the patio uncovered.

      Ugh, Blitz announced to his brothers, Pit Fighters has gotten so boring with how Sultan wins every single fight. It was fun for one year, maybe two, but he’s on a five-year championship streak and nobody’s even gotten close to upsetting him. I don’t even know why he doesn’t just retire.

      Konner, the teal-furred middle child, was watching the screen with more interest and had already drained his strawberry smoothie dry. Because he has a bunch of needy fangirls who watch every single one of his matches.

      Paris, the youngest with ears so heavy they might never stand up straight, leaned forward on his elbows until his purple cheeks melted into his propped-up wrists. He sighed, letting his eyes suck in those sculpted bodies. His mango smoothie had gone almost untouched. He tongued the end of his straw.

      Or, you know, fanboys, Konnor said, gesturing.

      Paris, Blitz sighed. You are so hopelessly gay.

      What! Paris exclaimed, his long rabbit ears standing up at the remark before flopping back under their own weight again. "I don’t watch all of his matches!"

      Yeah, Konnor said, Sometimes you have to be at school.

      It’s amazing how gay-pandering Pit Fighters can get, Blitz said, eyes drawn to the TV once more. It wasn’t like this stuff turned him on—it was just distracting! Can we change it over to the women’s bracket? He asked.

      It’s not just gay pandering, Paris said, folding his arms tight against his chest. There’s a lot of art and skill involved. Courage. Tenacity. Willpower.

      Low-angle shots, Konner added, noting the zooms on the
