We all get up, grabbing fresh beers on the way past the cooler and start to make our way over to where the big crowd is gathered around the fight ring.
âHow are the bets coming along?â Rafe signs as the crowd parts for us without us asking anyone to move.
âWeâre into the tens of thousands now,â I smirk, looking at the numbers that Trev sent over a few minutes ago.
âGood,â Riot replies with a smile, âwhoâs fighting?â
I glance down at my phone, trying to remember the names of the fighters. So much has happened in the last couple of days, and Iâve been stretched thin, trying to make sure that everything runs smoothly while Trick deals with the Tomlinson leaders and takes care of that side of things.
Before I can find the answer in my phone, Trick replies, âDerek is fighting from our school, heâs up against a kid called Steve, I donât really know much about him and there wasnât any bad blood between them. Theyâre good fighters, and both requested that they fight; we figured weâd put them up against each other.â
By this point, weâre already at the edge of the ring, and weâve been watching them for a few minutes. Theyâre good, and theyâre putting on a good show for the crowd, but I donât think itâs going to last much longer. Theyâve both taken a few hits, and theyâre starting to slow.
âHow long do you give them?â Jensen asks, watching them closely.
âI think maybe ten minutes. If weâre lucky, theyâve been going at it for a while, and Iâm actually surprised that theyâre both still standing.â Luc replies, his arms crossed over his chest.
I suddenly become aware of a commotion behind us, and we all quickly turn around just in time to see a fucker from our side punch someone from Tomlinson in the face, and it quickly devolves into a full-blown fight. Thatâs all the encouragement that everyone else needs and a few other people start to join in.
Trick whistles shrilly, gaining the attention of those who look right on the edge of joining the fight; as soon as they all catch sight of us, though, they take a step backâeven those from Tomlinson.
âDo you want to break it up?â Riot asks, looking at the fight like heâs bored.
âIn a minute, let them get the worst of it out of their system before we step in,â Trick replies.
Trev steps up on our right and asks with his eyebrow raised and a grin on his face, âBoss?â
Trick gives a single nod, âGo ahead.â
âThanks, boss,â Trev replies, and then raises his voice as he walks through the crowd thatâs surrounding the fight, âAlright, ladies and gentlemen, place your bets here. Who's going to win the unsanctioned fight, who's going to get kicked out first, and how long our esteemed leaders are going to let it last before they step in.â
Trev is immediately swarmed by people, waving cash around and yelling out bets. Youâd think that heâd
