"Wake" Banzuke Sumo Beya Series 3 Part 21

"WAKE UP !!!".

"Wha….wut time iz it ??", groaned Randell, as the bellowing voice woke him.

"Time you up and dress !, others are to train in here, and you all in WAY…!!", Snarled the fearsome Yukata clad, Shar-pei, Randell glanced past him, to the clock on the wall.

"IT’S BLOODY QUARTER TO FIVE !!!", protested the Grey Wolf.

"That’s right, Training here start at FIVE….. GET UP ALL OF YOU !!" Mr Yamamoto, roared at the others who where slowly awakened by all the noise.

A sound of heavy plodding footsteps filled the room, and the Akita they had seen yesterday entered the room, clad only in a Mawashi, he paused briefly, bowing as he came in the room, out of reverence, and out of respect for the Oyakata. He gave the Americans and Germans, a withering stare of contempt, as he approached. The Four foreigners, shuddered, and energised by the sight, promptly scrambled around. Lyro reached for one of the Mawashi’s, which lay, neatly folded in a pile, nearby, the Black Wolf, obediently glanced up at the Oyakata for approval or permission…

"Not mean, practice for you !, Kuroi Okami……", whispered the Shar pei, with a slight smile, at Lyro’s willingness, "Wear what you came in !, Basho day, today, Taxi come take you back to Hotel, then travel with rest to "Big Egg"….

"Are you SURE, there’s no "Chores" you want us all to do first ?", sneered Randell, sarcastically referring to the menial jobs he’d kept them occupied with, throughout the rest of yesterday. The other three, gasped at the Grey Wolfs continuing defiance, and waited for the Shar-pei to…

"No, you just all promise me, you BEHAVING !,… after Basho, please feel free,… Beat each other up as much as you want…..".

"Seems STUPID, seeing as we’ve got to take each other on in the ring…", Randell continued, beginning to dress, as he was speaking, a hand grabbed him roughly by the scruff of the neck, yanking him from where he’d knelt on the Futon, to his feet, it was the Akita !. The Japanese Dog’s eyes were wide with rage, and the Wolf could feel his hot breath on his neck. But the Shar – Pei barked an order to him in Japanese, and the tight grip was obediently, but hesitantly, released.

*********************************************************************************

"Dai'......???" Whispered Morgan, propping himself up in the bed, in the early morning light, " ‘You awake ??"

"Yesss..." mumbled the other Naked Bear, beside him, "What time is it ?"

"It's still a bit early, I'm a bit nervous and ....." cooed the light brown Bear.

"WELL, there's only ONE cure for that !!" the Muscular Panda, gently eased Morgan onto his back, and clambered on top of him. Morgan wasn’t sure he wanted, "I’m Sorry" Sex, after yesterday, but he longed to be comforted, and feel loved, reaching up, he idly fluffed Dai’ on the stomach, feeling the ridges of muscle, nestled beneath it.

After allowing the other Bear to rub and massage, his seemingly rotund White tummy and large black pectorals, for a short while. The Giant Panda, seized hold of Morgans wrist's, and with a elegmatic smile, clamped the other Bear's arm's firmly down by his sides. Holding them in place, with his tremendous strength. Morgan felt himself falling for the Panda’s charms, and totally surrendered to his beloved partner, and gave out a blissful sigh, as he felt Dai's White tummy, rub comfortingly against his own, and their Cock's brush against each other's, both beginning to quiver with a life of their own......

"I'm going to have to teach you the "KUMA" Sutra" Dai' beamed. Morgan closed his eyes, thoughts of yesterday still plaguing him, but he tried to push them to the back of his mind as he felt the other Bear's, now rock hard maleness, probing around underneath his plump brown balls, seeking an entrance...

KNOCK KNOCK.....

Both Bear's shuddered, as they heard a rap at the door, spoiling the moment,..

"Dai', Morgan ??, are you Guys awake ?...."

"That's Ruffert's voice......" whispered Morgan, as Dai rolled off him, onto his own back, and reached for his nearby Yukata. "Hang on Ruff', I'm coming......".

The Naked Panda clambered out of the bed, pulling the Hotel robe, over his broad shoulders, and quickly fiddled with his flagging erection, so it wouldn't poke out, as he strode over to the door.

"Careful....." warned Morgan, "What if someone's......"

"RUFFERT !!, Are you ALONE !!" Barked Dai’, opening the door, slightly, and peeping through the crack..... The German shepherd was alone, in the corridor, clad in just a Hotel Robe, emblazoned all over, with a pattern made up of its Logo.

"Yeah... 'Course I am ??" the Dog replied, innocently, "I'm sorry if......". "COME IN !!" Dai flung the door open, welcoming his former teammate inside, "Just being careful, you understand...??",

Ruffert bowed his head sadly, as he wandered inside, feeling a little ashamed.

"Just you make sure you stay WELL away, from that Randell and that underling of his !!" Morgan and Dai' both warned him, practically in stereo.

"He no longer has any interest in me,by the looks of it...." the robed Alsatian replied, "He's got enough on his hands with those German's and that Japanese Guy REALLY has them all, "in check", So I’ve heard...."

"Mr YAMAMOTO !!" Daikonran corrected him, "... Make sure you show him the respect he deserves !!.

Morgan scowled at the Panda at the mention of the Oyakata’s name, "Anyway...what's the matter ??" he asked , as he sat up, bare chested in the double bed, as ever, made up of two Hotel singles, pushed together.

"Oh, I don't know......" Sighed the Alsatian, sadly, pacing nervously on the spot, "I just couldn't sleep that well, I wanted to be with, you two......"

"I don't expect it takes much of a stretch of the imagination, to wonder WHY ??", fixing him, with a stare, full of emotive power, the Panda rooted the Canine to the spot. Reaching forward, with his big Black hands, Dai' tucked them in the "V" shaped opening on the Dog's robe, peeling it open, and back, off Ruffert's rounded shoulders.

"Am I really that shallow ??" whispered the German Shepherd sweetly, shuddering as his rope fell to the floor, gathering in a heap around his ankles.

"Oh, we'll let you off....." cooed Dai' wrapping his arm's around him, lifting him out of the pile of material, he stood in, and swung him gently onto the bed, where he laid down, with a giggle.

"Does "Mush" know.....??" added Morgan, as he got out to lay his own naked body next to the Canine's on top of the Duvet. Ruffert let out a heavy sigh, as Daikonran disrobed, lying down on the other side of him. "Yeah, we've just had a bit of a Row, ....... He knows I was with you guys "First", and he can't really say a lot, as he joins in our little "Top floor sessions"...But, he saw me looking at you both, and Randell and Co, at "Practice" this morning...., and said, I should, "Make my mind up". Ruffert drew breath sharply, "He said I only moved in with him, to get out of the States and away from the threat of Randell....".

"Look...I know we...." whispered Morgan, apprehensively reaching out, placing an arm over the Alsatian's pronounced chest.

"THAT'S A BIT HEARTLESS !!" Exclaimed Daikonran, a little shocked. "But at the end of the day, that decision can only be made by YOU, but REMEMBER....." he added, in his authoritarian tone, "YOU can't spend the rest of your life, "Thinking with your "Ball's", we've told you that SEVERAL times before!!"

"I know....I KNOW !!" moaned the nude German Shepherd sadly, as Dai' gazed across at him, and ran his black fingers lovingly, through his chest fur, comforting him. "It's great living with him, being able to go to "Nameh's" practically anytime and....., but Canada's SO DARN COLD !!"

"LOOK, maybe you should just go back to your room, and sort it out with him !!" whispered Dai' sitting up, as his sensible conscience "Kicked in", and feeling a little guilty as Morgan and himself, had only just had a row several hours earlier, and here they all were… wanting to have Sex…. "He might just be a bit, apprehensive about the "Basho"....", added the Panda.

"Yesssss" hissed Ruffert, "But there's a small part of me, deep down, that ALWAYS longs for what it was like when it was just the three of us..."

"OOoohhh....." groaned Morgan, full of pent up emotion, he'd ALWAYS felt like that too...but..……..

"Can't we just......??" pleaded Ruffert, rolling onto his front, and wagging his tail and butt, provocatively.

"I'm, not sure THAT'LL help, you know !!" insisted Daikonran, "You'll only hate yourself for it later on...but, I DO quite fancy some "Hot Dog", …..Morgan ?, how about you ??".

"PLEASE...." wined the Alsatian, "It'll be just like that first time, the three of us, were ever together.... without being in a "Sauna" of course....".

"NO !!!, I don’t believe this…..", hissed Morgan, grinding his teeth, "Why don’t you, "Change the Record" !, You ALWAYS think you can waltz up to us with that old story…Well, I’m getting more than a bit, sick an’ tired of it !!".

"Morgan ?", Whispered the nearby, Nude Panda, a little surprised.

"Look, I think you’d better go, Ruffert !, Me and Dai’ had a row, last night too, and "He", was just going to make it ALL better, with Sex….", continued the naked light Brown Bear, bluntly.

"I didn’t recall hearing you, complaining…….", Protested Daikonran.

"Well, Maybe this has just "Brought it home", to me…….", Pouted Morgan, Ruffert realised he was obviously not as welcome, as he’d hoped, and slowly got up, and putting on his robe, he headed sadly to the door.

*********************************************************************************

[SONG]

"You sit and wait, you hesitate, just like you’ve never been in love before, there’s so much more……… On your own, and though you feel alone, YOU ARE ALIVE!, {Don’t you know it’s just another day} all alone, into this world we’re thrown, YOU ARE ALIVE ! {Don’t you know it’s just another day} On your own, and though you feel alone, YOU ARE ALIVE ! {Don’t you know it’s just another day}

You turn around, you’re lost and found, looking for someone who will understand, I’ll hold your hand, you count the days, a hopeless case, but for the first time you will wait for me, patiently……. On your own, and though you feel alone, YOU ARE AL…..".

Suddenly Travis, became aware of Bowers presence, and abruptly stopped singing.

"You don’t have to stop….." insisted the Nude Golden Retriever, from the other side of the shower curtain, "I didn’t know you could sing…."

"Nah, Not really…only when I’m in the shower….." quipped the Otter, peeping out from behind the plastic curtain, "Wanna join me ?".

"Sure !", And without any hesitation, the Dog clambered in with him, amidst the steamy cascade of warm water. Travis reached up, to caress Bowsers chest, lovingly, but the Dog flinched at his touch.

"What’s the matter ?", Questioned the sleek Otter, a little hurt….

"I….I’m sorry, just got a lot on my mind, with the Basho today, I don’t really feel like….".

"Oh, Come ON !, It’ll take your mind off it !!", Pleaded Travis, gazing across at him, with his soulful eyes.

"No, really…I doubt I could even get "it" up….".

"Not even if I "Blew" it up ??", the sinuous Otter, smirked.

Bowser forced a smile, Travis was always so cheerful, it was infectious, "How do you do that ??", asked the Dog, innocently.

"Do ??, "Do" what ???….".

"You never seem to let anything bother you,… you’re always so….".

"Gay ?".

"Well,…."Happy" was the word I was going to use, but I guess that fits", mused the Golden Retriever, as they stood together under the warm shower.

*********************************************************************************

"Well, another year, another tourney…." Sighed Colin, idly scratching his crotch, through the tatty Boxer shorts, he’d slept in, as he wandered to the Bathroom. "I gotta go for a piss…." He announced, in his usual tactless manner. Ralph meanwhile was sat up in his bed, reverently checking his Mawashi, laid out in his lap before him.

"Worried it’s gonna fall off, if you don’t tie it right ??", the Koala called out, from the small bathroom, as he relieved himself.

"Nah, just thinking……"

" ‘bout wot ??".

"Oh, the previous two Basho’s, we’ve both been in,… and wondering how Trav’ and Bowser will get on today, an’ Rev head, of course…".

"Ahhh, they’ll be fine !…. " Scoffed Colin, dismisifully, as he swaggered back, flipping open the lid of his suitcase which lay at the foot of the bed, and rummaged around picking out something to wear, "RIPPER, I’ve just found a few "Pollywaffle" bars in here, that I forgot I had….." he chirped excitedly, as he tossed one of the sweets to Ralph.

"Bonus !" the ‘Roo thanked him, as he caught it, "I’m surprised you didn’t bring a case of "Lilt", along with you….".

"Nah, have to carry it through, in "Hand luggage", fizzy drink, an’ all that….. I’ll crack a few open when I get back….".

"Yeah, I wonder what’s going on back home….?" Mused Ralph, as he chewed on the Marshmallow and Chocolate sandwich bar, "I expect my folks, will be waitin’ to watch an’ video the Basho….. Hope Jethro’s looking after my Surf hire hut, alright….".

"He’s probably had a Barbie, an’ "Accidentally" burnt it to the ground, by now….Surfboards, your Comic’s an’ ALL !", Teased Colin, as he pulled a T shirt over his head, his large ears popping comically back into place as his head emerged.

"NO WAY !, ‘Made sure all my best gear, was stashed back at my place before we came over…….Flamin’ BETTER be "Alright", or I’ll……".

"Maybe your Dad’s torched it, then, he’s always on to you, t’ get a "Real" job isn’t he….?".

Ralph just lowered his head, sadly and sighed.

"Come on, Mate, up an’ dressed, or we’ll miss all the best Brekkie !, you know how it was yesterday…..like a Rugby scrum !!", added Colin, who didn’t really like to see his friend, getting upset, because of his "friendly" teasing.

"I guess so, chuck me, my black "Warriors of Virtue" T shirt, will you ?".

Snatching the Black T shirt, up off the floor, where it lay, Colin thrust it into his hands.

"Y’know, I wonder if Nasuko is working behind the reception desk, again, this morning ??", mused the ‘Roo, thinking out loud, as he put on his T shirt, and pulled on his underwear, and baggy "Fill-a-bong" surfers trousers.

"You’re NOT trying to get a "Holiday romance" outta this are you ?", gasped Colin, "You’ll never get serious with her, "Mixed species" relationships NEVER work….".

"Says the "EXPERT"….." Hissed Ralph, "EX-AC-TLY" How many females, have YOU been out with, lately…..??".

"YEAH, Well……I’ve….that is….I……".

"Thought as much!, "You" and the Lingerie section from your Mothers catalogue, is it ??…..", The Kangaroo replied, pointedly.

"…It’ll be a LONG distance relationship, an’ all, y’know…...’her livin’ in Japan, an’ YOU in Oz….", snorted Colin, exasperatedly, as he completed his sentence.

*********************************************************************************

As the Wrestlers once again headed for the dining room, Jasper caught sight of a familiar face, lurking nearby in the lobby.

"Hello, "Bob", how’s it going….?"

"Oh, fine…." Gasped the Norwegian Polar Bear, "I’m just a little unsure of what Train to catch to get me to the Basho, I was just about to ask at reception, I think it’s the Marunouchi line, but….".

"Nah, don’t worry about it, maybe I can wrangle you a lift on the coach,…HEY DAI’ !!".

Hearing his name called, the Giant Panda, wandered over, along with Morgan.

"Yes, my Friend ?".

"Look, Dai’, I was just wondering… do you think they’d be room on the bus, for a "Fan", an’ fellow Polar Bear ??", Jasper beamed, draping an arm lazily over the other white bears shoulder.

"Mr Booway ?"

"B..B…Bob…." stammered the slightly nervous Bear, bowing to the Panda, "I’d really…a…appreciate it,…if, if it’s not to much trouble!"

"Well, I’d have to ask my Father, but I’m sure it would be OK…."

"There’s Nasuko, I’ve just gotta go say "Hi", to her…." Breathed Ralph, spotting the Siamese Cat, he’d seen Parapara dancing yesterday, sat in her place, behind the Hotels reception desk.

"Yeah, Whatever, Mate !!" Snorted Colin, full of disinterest, "Don’t say I didn’t….".

"You DIDN’T !, ‘Think I’ll listen to your "Sage advise" on the subject !", snarled the Kangaroo, "Hope you’ve "Washed your hands", before Breakfast", he added sarcastically. Colin just screwed his face up angrily, in a way only a Koala could do, and plodded on to the dining room without him.

"So, AVEX are the best "Label" to go for, for ParaPara music then ??", a figure asked the pretty receptionist, "I saw so many in the shop, I wasn’t sure which ones to go for, I know any of the "Dancemania" ones by "Intercord" are worth going getting….".

"Oh yes, Sir…. Haruko and myself, like anything by "Domino", and…."

"Well, Hel-lo, again….", smarmed Ralph, interrupting, and attempting to sound smooth, as he noticed Nasuko was discussing music with one of his Wrestling rivals, the Pommie Badger !!.

"Alright, "Aussie", ready to make it "Best of Three", in the ring later on then?, we’ve beaten each other, one time each, haven’t we ??".

Ralph, couldn’t BELIVE it, he racked his brain for a witty response, "I hear your White, flared suit’s, ready to be picked up from the Dry cleaners….", he quipped. Referring to the outfit from "Saturday night fever", as he’d heard the English Badger fancied himself as a bit of a Dancer, despite his size and build. Then the ‘Roo mentally slapped himself for sounding so uncool, in front of Nasuko. He tried making desperate signals with his eyes, for the Badger, to leave him alone with her.

"C’mon, Dennis, or you’ll miss the best grub !!", called a Fox and Racoon, from across the room, beckoning him over.

"Thanks for the advise !", Dennis thanked her, politely, deliberately ignoring Ralph’s pleading expression, "I’m going to be the first ‘Wrestler, to incorporate, BOTH , ParaPara, And DDR, into my Training…..", he added with a smile. As he left, Ralph let out a relived sigh, under his breath, "I….I was wondering, are you going to be watching the Sumo, later on ?", he asked her nervously, a little overcome by her beauty.

"Why, Yes, the Manager has graciously allowed me the day off….Oh and thank you for treating Haruko and I, to Ice Creams at "Dipper Dan’s" after the Contest yesterday……".

"Aww…… I… I…. I just thought you could use it after all that, Para’ing, I hope my Friend Colin, didn’t bother you??".

"Umm, Not at all….". beamed the receptionist, but Ralph could tell, she was lying, Japanese politeness and "Colin", didn’t really mix.

"Umm, maybe…err….We could go for another one later, when I’m back from the Sumo !…..Just the two of us ??", he gasped, gazing at her with his dark eyes, struggling to maintain eye contact with her.

"I’d like that !", she smiled, sweetly, "Maybe we’ll get to have our photo taken at the Basho, together as well…."

"YOU’RE…."GOING"… umm "To" the Basho!?!??"

"Why, yes ?, didn’t I say ?…..The Manager has given me a free pass, he has lots of them…." She simpered.

*********************************************************************************

The Taxi, drew up in front of the Hotel, and the four occupants got out, casting evil, suspicious glances at each other, they’d travelled in complete silence the whole way, and now they where free to……

"Like to say ist been "Fun", but NOT !, See you Wolves in "Ring" later, that be decider….!", Growled Shlank, breaking the uneasy silence, as he began heading for the main doors, with Knall, the burly Rottwiller, lumbering along beside him. Randell stood his ground, fuming inside, as the two German Dogs, walked casually away from him.

"Fuck this!, I’m going to get my "Blue Blaster", then we’ll have a pre-match "Decider", Sauerkraut !", the Grey Wolf hissed under his breath, and he darted towards another side entrance, to catch a lift upto his room, hopefully he’d beat them, and….

"COME ON, COCK SMOKER !!", he called to Lyro, as he sprinted towards the doors.

After a few shorts minutes, they got to their floor, and dashed to their room, Randell desperately fumbled with the lock. Flinging the door open, he sprang to where his "Mobile phone/tazer" lay, on the table.

"NOW THEY’RE FUCKED !!", he rasped, evilly, flicking the switch, expecting……Nothing!.

"It’s not Mother fuckin’ CHARGED !!".

"So….." breathed Lyro.

"WWWWHHHATT!!!", Randell spun around, overcome with rage and frustration, ready to vent it on his "Beta", who just seemed completely unmoved, "Whatcha mean, "SO" ???".

"Can’t you just fight them in the ring, like they, and the Oyakata said, this is like Schoolpup’s stuff……". Sighed Lyro, wearily.

"Who gave YOU, permission to grow a "Spine", anyway……??", snarled Randell, pointing the ‘phone/weapon at him threateningly, "Oh, WAIT A MINUTE….Spend a day, with "Prune face", and you’ll already to become, "His Bitch", I suppose….", he added, lowering the phone [As he remembered it wasn’t charged up].

"Yeah, I wouldn’t mind training in a "Real", Sumo stable, if……"

"Don’t make me fucking LAUGH !, we’ve only just had a TASTE of what its REALLY like…….", Bellowed the Grey Alpha Wolf, before Lyro could complete his sentence.

"Maybe I’m USED to it", hissed the Black Wolf, under his breath, but deliberately loud enough for him to hear.

Randell, shoved him aside, as he determinedly headed back out the door, "Grab our Mawashi’s, an’ lets get some food, while we can…."

"Get your OWN !!"

"What ?" whispered Randell, stopping dead in his tracks, "Watch that….".

With a SLAM !!, he bodily pinned the Black Wolf to the wall, thrusting his right forearm up under his chin, "….DO watch that, O "Lyro", if to continue to be on live, thou dost wish…..", he quoted, staring him down, with his piercing Yellow eyes. Lyro nearly let out a whimper, but fought it, Randell released his hold on him, and the Black Wolf slumped forward, with relief. Randell, idly picked up his own Mawashi from where it lay, and tossed Lyro his.

"Ol’ Bollock features may be "King of the Castle", back in his little Sumo stable, but I’M your ALPHA remember!, your ass won’t be getting a good reaming, IF you go their, just sore from hitting the hard Clay, all the time…..REMEMBER THAT !!"

*********************************************************************************

"They can’t teach us, Russians ANYTHING about queuing, can they ?" beamed Max to Rasputin’s Father, Ivan, proudly, later that morning as they were at the very front of the line for the Wrestler’s bus, to the Basho.

"Yes, we can get the back seat, and ALL of us can sit together !", Beamed Ursula, Rasputin’s Mother, hooking her arm, under her Son’s, who wished the ground under his feet, would swallow him up, Valdis stifled a smirk, knowing his partners fierce temper.

"We’re all going on a…. Summer Holi-day…", Sang Dennis, as the other Wrestlers, queued up for the bus, outside the Hotel, later that day.

"Good one, "Cliff"…" snorted Rusty, who stood behind him, guessing what sixties movie he was referring to, "Let’s just get on the bus, huh?".

"Hey, maybe I could "Rap", my way to the front of the line….?".

"Don’t hold your breath….." added the Fox, with a rye smile, "I hope you’ve already gone to the Toilet….!"

"Tell you, wot…..", mumbled Syd, to Tonneau, as they stood behind them, "I feel like that guy in that, "Gladiator", movie, that pisses ‘imself….".

"Look, if you’ve got to "Go", you really "should" before we get on the bus…", the St Bernard advised him, in a polite whisper.

"NNNNAAAAHHHHH, I mean that I’m dead nervous……..", rasped the wily Weasel, "This is our first time doin’ it for REAL, an’ not just playing around, back ‘ome !".

"Well, the character in the film you’re referring to, WAS about to face his death, it’s not as severe as that, you know….".

"Are you sure this is OK?", asked Bob, feeling a little out of place, wearing normal clothes, while all the Wrestlers, milling about, wore Yukatas, with just their Mawashi’s on underneath.

"My Father said it was "OK", Daikonran gently reminded him, as the Norwegian Polar Bear, joined the queue with the American and Canadian teams.

"Kuma Motors, and Canadian Rockies ??, are all your team members present ?", asked Dr Zhou, dryly, as he wandered over to them, with a check list, attached to a clip board.

"Yes, Doctor !" Dai’ answered proudly, "Morgan, Axel and Myself !".

"All of my team’s here, Doc’…." Replied Jasper, "I’m Jasper, and with me, are Ruffert, Mush, and Decker….".

"And his is your Brother I assume?…." the Black Panther, hissed, looking at Bob, "You DO realise this is the WRESTLERS Coach, I take it ??".

"He’s getting a lift to the Basho with us ! ", insisted Jasper, "Mr Kuma, approved it…..".

The Doctor, narrowed his iridescent eyes, and scrutinised the list, "Oh yes, that’s right, along with the Russians parents, and Trainer….., and PLEASE….DON’T refer to me as "Doc", it’s SO vulgar". He glanced across at Decker, who stood proudly behind the two Canines, "This is turning out to be really, "Cozy", isn’t it ??…..", he commented, as he looked him up and down, "Nice robe by the way……".

"T…Thanks !?", growled Decker, defensively, "A "Friend" gave it to me…", as he spoke, he ran his Orange striped hand, across it, feeling the smooth, Black silk, cool to the touch……Thinking of Nameh….

"……I have bed sheets just like it at home……", added the Doctor with a sneer.

"Geez, that’s "Catty", what a creepy guy…..", whispered Mush, once the Panther was out of earshot, continuing to check off the other teams as they arrived.

"Yeah, that’s "Dr Zhou" for you…..". hissed Morgan.

"Doctor…WHO ??", breathed Bob.

"Colin, Captain of the Australian Sumo Squad !!", announced the Grey Koala, chest puffed up with pride, as the Doctor continued, checking everyone off,

"Self appointed…..", muttered Ralph, under his breath.

"And on my team, are Ralph, Travis, and Bowser….", Continued Colin, oblivious to the remark.

Nodding his satisfaction, Dr Zhou moved on…

"An’ I’m Rev-Head, representing "New Zealand", announced the Tasmanian Wolf, "An’ this is, Morita, from Africa…..".

"Sumo can’t be too, popular….. Where you both come from….", Fawned the studious Black Panther, with a facial expression which conveyed, "I bet the pair of you don’t have any friends !!".

"I’m looking to kick myself some, Aussie Otter Butt !!……." Snarled Rev-Head, casing an evil look, at Travis, "We’ve got a score to settle….".

{See "Preparation H" Series 3 pt 11}

"Oh, the Noble art of Sumo……."SO", unlike that tiresome WWWF, or whatever it’s called…..". Added the Doctor, sarcastically.

"I "Know" who you four are…..", Dr Zhou, hissed in a icy tone as he got to the end of the line, "The German, and "Other" American team, …Try not to make TOO much work for me won’t you ??".

"Ja, Doktor…..Ve’ve "Truce", until ve meeting in ring, unt Basho !", boomed Knall, the Muscular Rottwiler.

"Herr Yamamoto, taught us well !" added Shlank.

"Bloody, foreign creeps…..!", Spat Randell, his arms folded across his chest, hoping to antagonise them.

"NO, I believe time, ve all spent with Oyakata, vaus valuble…..!", insisted the Doberman, "I feel ve all appreciate Sumo, all the more now….".

"You’re both SO full of SHIT !", announced Randell.

"Your turn vill come, Be Patient!", glowered Shlank, turning his head, just enough to give the Wolf, a dagger like stare.

TO BE CONTINUED……
