*
I got the news and it hit me hard. My name is Carl Frederick and my ex-wife was a no good two-timing 'slut' who always had a cold beer in one hand and a "Goober" in the other. A "goober" was a southern slang for some idiot fit for a bit part on the "Andy Griffith" show, maybe the town drunk, barber, or, who cares...they all were idiots. My ex's goobers, though, were always brain dead hunks. I was a brain dead hunk too; however I got mighty ticked off having competition for my legally wed wife.
So, we divorced. I lost in court (I swear that female judge was holding a cold Miller and was holding hands with HER goober under the table.) That meant that "the tiny terror", Heather--my brat little girl, would be under the custody of "the slut". My daughter was a shade over five feet tall, slender, even frail, when I last saw her. Heather was a lovely child when she was young, but a handful, thus the "tiny terror" label. As a matter of fact, it was her antics that got the divorce rolling.
One day Carla (my occasionally faithful wife) was with some "Rhodes Scholar". I think his name was Shotgun, or Magnum, or something. My daughter knew that something wrong was going on, so she reached thru the trailer louvers and stole all of his clothes. Well, shit hit the fan and here was a country-fried bozo wearing my wife's robe and pink slippers, chasing after my daughter as she ran with his clothes. That bitch judge laughed about that along with me and STILL had me pay child support.
Fast forward to now. Seven years later, I get the news that my ex-wife Carla was riding in the wrong F150 pickup, her driver recently having taste tested 11 Bud's. Ford pickups are tough, but so are bridge supports. I hated that treacherous bitch, but not enough to want her to end like that...even I wept at the news. But, I had a job to do. I had to return to Heather's life.
I put my 2nd in command in charge of my construction company. He was the only documented worker I had and he was a brilliant manager. I took the 1st plane back southeast and arrived after two transfers to our backwater little hamlet. All that work travelling and Heather was nowhere to be found.
My favorite neighbor, Rick Holder, brought me up to speed: "your daughter is the same hellcat you remember. You heard about her ATV accident; I was stunned that you couldn't see her because of that restraining order. Her arms were hyper extended with damage to her, what, 'rotator cuff' I think. Anyway, it gave her limited range of motion. The physical therapy was long and arduous, the caregiver was kind and considerate, but used the guide for football injury. As a result, Heather went from pulleys, Nautilus, and static 20 lb. weights to serious lifting. Since the football guidelines had no concern for 'too much muscle' she just kept going. She stopped when she was bench pressing 300 lbs., but only because she was musclebound and could barely move.
An incident brought her progress into sharp focus. Another one of your wife's Goobers acted up, getting a bit too 'frisky', making her call for help. Well, before anyone could come to help, Heather had grabbed the guy, thrown him out of the trailer, and then decked him with one titanic blow. She had knocked him out, one punch, and he had to be revived by medics. Instead of calling for help, your tiny terror made like the cartoons; she put her pretty little barefoot on top of his body on the ground and flexed her bulging biceps in triumph. Your wife and I saw it from our respective trailers, putting us in awe. From that moment on, Heather wanted to fight, and would.
I went to her early fights. Like I said, I never had a thing for strong women, but cat fights? Lord almighty. The promoters always promised all fighters were over 18. I loved seeing Heather wail away on some out of shape homely girl brute, since your daughter was the exact opposite. I think they wanted the contrast of a beautiful demure blonde, with a perfect body to fight some ugly blob so we had a clear heroine to root for. After that fight I got into that tiny world of woman's boxing. There was only one fighter similar to your daughter, a chick named, I think, Jolene Blackshire. Like Heather, she was tiny and heavily muscled in her upper body. She fought much bigger women, using her powerful right hook to equalize the fight. I'm embarrassed to say, some of the dvd's of her old fights are still burning in my mind... Anyway, Heather is on the circuit. I will find her next fight on the website and get it to you. Give my best to her, please."
To my surprise, I did not see Heather's name as an active fighter in the circuit; it said "retired". Now what? I called my friend Rick Holder again, and he just blew me away...
He said he followed the circuit closely, and the bulletin board was alive. Heather was turning pro...on the men's circuit! He said the first fight was scheduled outside Memphis, TN. He said he had no interest in seeing her lose. He sent all the particulars.
The boxing ring in Memphis was of regulation size with the prescribed ropes and corners. There were folding seats under a tent. It was attached to a permanent farmer's market and flea market. Not exactly the MGM Grand in Vegas, but a start. I went to the weigh-in and, oh God, there was Heather after all these years. She wasn't much taller, but she had a fantastic figure. It was toned, rock hard, like a gymnast. The only things outsized were her shoulders and especially those arms. God, they must be menacing to the opponent, male or female. To fans of body building, the lightly colored veins and subtle folds of her straining muscles were hot. I was still unsure how I felt, but this was my baby. I prayed she'd stay out of harm's way. To my relief, the promoters were no fools and found this big lout for her to fight. He had tons of reach and outweighed her by 30 pounds. I guess precise weight classes didn't matter at this level. Anyway, the official statistics had him with 6 inches greater reach, 7 inches taller and over 30 pounds heavier. However, significantly, his biceps of 14 inches were dwarfed by my baby's rippling 19 inch guns on her tiny frame. No wonder some said she was an 18 year old muscle-bound nymph.
The fight lasted two rounds. I had bought 3 beers so I wouldn't have to get up again. The guy next to me said I was nuts, the man would deck this little bitch and end it in 2 minutes. I felt like decking HIM, that little bitch.
Heather came out and you could tell she had limited flexibility due to that accident. But, if he was dumb enough to get in range and attack, then she had a chance. For the 1st round, no one did much of anything. In the 2nd round, he had decided to attack. But as he wound up for his left hook, you could see her powerful right bicep strain and swell with power; suddenly, she gave him an upper cut that nearly separated his head from the rest of him. POW!! Crack! He swayed and then fell over. He was out. Cold. My baby was a winner. All of a sudden, I noticed that the seat I had chosen had been damp for some reason; I stood up only to find that I was damp...my God, had I gotten off to the beauty and power of the tiny terror?
I went back to the meager dressing room, which was a cheaply paneled 20 foot single wide. When I came in, she said no autographs and then shouted, "Daddy!" She ran to me and put her strained arms around as best she could. I hugged her back. She asked me when I got in and if I had seen the fight.
I said I had.
She asked, "Well, what did you think?"
I said, "to be honest, no father thinks of his daughter sporting killer guns on her arms, or having a mean right cross. But, to be honest, you were good and..." (I almost, almost said she was hot...but she was my daughter after all.)
She understood why I couldn't see her after the accident, and she understood my mixed emotions about mom dying. (We hugged and cried a little; I kissed her on the cheek. She was so tough and independent, yet so vulnerable. It made her beautiful to me once again.) Just then, a "fan" came in.
This guy wanted her autograph, saying he loved fit women and he 'followed them' all over the world. As she signed his black&white mimeographed program (they spared no expense), he said he had followed Shannon Miller for a year until he was warned to keep away. Next, he tried to talk to Zamo, who Heather looked like.
She asked who "Zamo" was.
He was just dying to tell her; he gushed, "Zamo was the most beautiful Russian gymnast, the most exquisite creature that ever lived. And, like you, she had a perfect figure except for these enormous biceps. She was diminutive, again like you, so her normal exercises for the parallel bars resulted in these big guns. She had to wear long sleeves in some competitions because some judges wouldn't dig those types of arms."
At this point, he was droning on so I told him to split.
He turned angrily to me and asked me who I was...her father?
I said, "as a matter of fact, I am, so get lost." Using my elderly but still considerable muscles from supervising construction, I opened the door and unceremoniously tossed him out. I locked the door.
Heather jumped up and hugged me, thanking me for protecting her. As she hugged me, I was so embarrassed. She just was happy to have her daddy around again, protecting her. Now why did that have to happen; my old, seldom used cock was coming back to life. Excited by the proximity of a hurricane of power and female sex appeal (with muscle), my old friend was starting to remember what it was for and grew. Then it stopped, then grew some more. When our hug broke, I was at full ten inches, a sight to behold in front of my (poorly chosen) tan slacks. Heather could clearly see her daddy was huge...and because of her.
To my shock, she put a hand forward and squeezed, making me recoil. She said, "What is the expression, 'is that a summer sausage in your pants or are you just happy to see me.' I can see that you ARE happy to see me."
