IN OLDEN TIMES

As the Greek Empire was loosing its dominance both as a maritime and military power, the Etruscans were on the rise. They used superior tactics and combative prowess in their conquests of lesser tribes. Until they had defeated all forces and conquered all of their neighboring states. They dealt harshly with their defeated foes, and took the best of their fighting men back as prisoners to become slaves or gladiators. But even as their empire grew in size and population, they did not loose their taste for combat and they forced their captives to fight in the arena, often to the death. Only the best of the fighters were allowed to fight, in the nude and weaponless, in this way they could be controlled and the matches stopped before the winner killed the looser, so that they might fight again.

Before the old king, Tahl died, he had private combats held in the palace courtyard, the ultimate victor would become the new king. It was an honor be invited to view these fights but an even higher achievement to be chosen to FIGHT. After numerous combats over a period of several months, it became obvious that one of his most trusted lieutenants, Po, was the best. But was also obvious that the final match would be a fight to the death between Po and Garth, another veteran of many campaigns. Garth was forced to fight against the best of the proven officers for the chance to meet Po. Garth proved his worthiness by defeating everyone that was chosen to fight against him. He was then paired with Po in a death match. Garth over powered Po and crushed his throat depriving him of his life. He became king with the defeat of Po, but it was a hard fight and there were several times that he almost lost. He kept his body in excellent condition by constant physical training to maintain his superior muscular strength. His dirty fighting abilities were honed to razor sharpness by his constant fights with other soldiers in the barracks or in hand to hand combat with the enemy during a campaign.

As the new King, Garth led his legions on a trail of military expeditions, extending the empire and conquering all who attempted to stand against him. As he defeated each army that stood in his way, he sent the best and most muscular captives back to his capital, Milosium. Where on his return, the cream of each conquered army would fight for his personal satisfaction. They would fight in the greatest combat spectacle that any one had seen, until only one remained.

His first campaign was to invade Greece. They fought many pitched battles until they had the Greeks trapped in the Peloponnesus, the home of the Spartans. The best of the Greeks taken alive was a Spartan by the name of Thesus. He was a champion Wrestler and Pancratist who had won numerous laurels in the Greek Olympic Games, some by default because no one would meet his challenge in the Pancration. His favorite technique for defeating a wrestling opponent was a combination neck breaker/sleeper hold, several of his opponents died from his powerful grip before they would submit. In the Pancration he usually defeated his opponents mercilessly attacking their unprotected testicles with vicious kicks, knees, and punches. Before he would squeeze and twist them with his powerful hands until they either submitted or passed out.

After the very successful Greek campaign, Garth moved north and attacked the Gauls. The champion Gaul came from the French King's personal body guard. Where as most men fought only with their hands and arms, Armis had trained himself to use his feet. A man's feet can deliver much more powerful and damaging blows than his hands because his legs are stronger and longer than his arms. Armis used his feet with deadly accuracy to land bone crushing blows to his opponents or any one who attempted to fight with him. He could even defeat a man using a sword.

After defeating the Gauls, Garth turned his attention to the Goths who lived further north. They were fierce fighting tribes that wandered from one encampment to another. When two of the of these tribes came in contact there was sure to be a savage battle that lasted until the weaker of the tribes was wiped out or assimilated into the stronger group. As Garth moved into their territory the outer tribes were easily defeated, but the fighting grew slower and more brutal the deeper that he penetrated into their land until Garth met the most powerful of the tribes. After several weeks of constant running battles, Garth took their king Odis captive, and all resistance ceased. Thor was one of the most powerful of the Odis's soldiers that was taken prisoner. He had killed several of Garth's best men before he was overcome and captured.

Then he swung south and drove through the Iberian peninsula where he met with little organized resistance or heavy

fighting. Until he crossed the Straights of Hercules and entered North Africa. At first he only had to contend with nomadic tribes, then he reached Carthage. Where some of the most savage fighting of this long campaign of conquest took place. Garth crushed the Carthaginians, but only at a tremendous

cost to his own men. Because of the losses that he suffered only one of the enemy, Romus, was taken prisoner, all the others were put to death.

After Garth's conquest of Carthage, he went south into the Sudan. He returned home with a huge Nubian, Rufus, who was a head taller than most men and his rich ebony skin was tightly stretched over his heavily muscled frame. It took six of Garth's men using a large net and long poles to capture him without killing him like many of his friends. He was the talk of the entire city after he was paraded through the streets wrapped in chains and tied securely in the back of a wagon. There would be heavy betting on him to emerge the victor of the special games.

Garth assembled his personal body guard and most of his loyal commanders and their hand picked men, the best of each unit in the royal courtyard. The men dropped their tunics, exposing their cocks and low slung balls, before they formed a large oval with Garth at one end. Garth was reclining on a large pile of pillows on a small raised platform so that he could view the coming fights better. The 5 prisoners were led into the open area where they were unchained. Then they were made to draw lots to find out who would be first to fight. The winner would remain and be forced to fight until only one man remained. When the initial pairing turned out to be Thesus, the Greek, and Romus, the Carthaginian, Garth's cock started to stiffen along with most of his men. The winner would fight Armis the Gaul.

Thesus and Romus cautiously circled each other. Both were champion wrestlers but Thesus had the edge of being a pancratist. Thesus felt that he might be able to defeat Romus by just using wrestling techniques, but that he was sure to defeat him by pancration. Romus leaped at Thesus and wrapped his long strong arms around his waist, locking him in a bear hug. Their bodies were tightly locked together the sweat lubricated their muscular chests, allowing their flesh slide without any friction. Thesus's arms were pinioned at his sides and Romus dug his knuckles into his spine. He lifted Thesus up and brought his knee up sharply between Thesus's legs and drove it in to his crotch. Thesus's balls were ground into his pubis and he screamed in pain. But he worked his hands into position and seized Romus's nuts, one with each hand. When he started to crush them between his fingers and thumb, Romus broke the hold and slammed a powerful forearm into Thesus's chest. Driving him back and breaking his grip on his balls. Thesus quickly recovered and clamped Romus in a side headlock before he threw him to the hard ground with a high hip roll. Romus landed flat on his back and Thesus crashed solidly into his chest, there was a loud "snap" and two of Romus's ribs were broken. With the wind knocked out of him and his ribs hurting, Romus was not going to be beaten with out putting up a fight. But Thesus wasn't going to allow him to reverse his position and released his head lock. He rolled over Romus and drove his right fist deep into his hard muscled gut while he reached for his throat with his left hand. As his fingers closed around Romus's throat, his other hand was slipping lower into his bush until he clamped his fingers around Romus's more than ample scrotum. Thesus dug his fingers deeper and deeper into Romus's soft tender flesh. Then he reared up and drove both of his knees into Romus's ribs before he picked him and held him over head at arms length. Romus was racked with pain, his arms and legs were flailing as he struggled to escape from this unbearable torture before he succumbed. Thesus saved his strength by bringing Romus over his bent knee, and broke his back. Thesus stood up and the lifeless form fell in a heap at his feet. The crowd cheered and Thesus was granted a brief respite before his next battle with the Gaul, Armis.
