Third Person's POV:

During Cobra Kai training, Sensei Kreese stood at the front of the dojo and lectured his students.

"Life isn't fair, sometimes the world can be cruel. And that's why you have to learn to be cruel yourselves. Weakness is unacceptable. The fight at the school was an embarrassment. You lost soldiers and you lost the battle. But you won't lose again. Diaz was one of our own. What they did to him, they did to all of us. And it will not go unanswered. We will show no mercy. We will show no weakness. We will strike back and we will strike hard! Is that clear?"

"Yes, Sensei!" The students yelled.

"I can't hear you!" Sensei shouted.

"Yes, Sensei!" They yelled louder.

"Good, get into pairs. We're sparing today," Sensei said before everyone got into groups of two.

They spent the next few hours sparing and watching their teammates spar before Sensei went into his office and came out with his hands behind his back.

"Class, you've worked very hard today. So before you're dismissed, I have a little treat for ya. I want to introduce you a friend of mine," Sensei said before showing them a mouse.

"Aw, cool. What's it's name?" Bert asked as Gaby made a face of disgust towards the mouse.

"I don't know. What should it be?" Sensei asked.

"Hawk Junior," Hawk smiled.

Sensei chuckled, "Bert, what do you think?"

"Uh... Clarence?" Bert suggested.

"Clarence, good. Here take him," Sensei said before handing Clarence over to Bert.

"He's so cute, guys," Bert said, making some of the students chuckle.

"You know, it's almost diner time," Sensei said.

"Oh, can I feed him?" Bert asked

"No," Sensei said before walking over to a cage in the corner of the room, "But you can feed him," he said as he pulled off the cover and revealed a snake in the cage.

"Uh... What does he like to eat?" Bert asked nervously.

"He likes to eat Clarence," Sensei said.

When Bert hesitated to walk up to the cage, Sensei Kreese said, "It's okay, come on. Come on, c'mon."

"There you go," He said once Bert starting walking to the cage.

Sensei opened the lid of the cage and Bert said, "I can't."

Sensei grabbed Bert and said, "That's okay. I understand. Clarence is your friend. It's okay to object. Who else objects?"

A few people raised their hands and Sensei said, "You're off the team. Get out!"

"But--"

"I said out! Get!" Sensei yelled, interrupting Bert.

"Let this be a lesson to all of you, a true Cobra never shows sympathy for it's meals. You're dismissed," Sensei said before walking into his office.

"Hey," Gaby said as she opened the door to Tory's apartment.

"Hey, babe," Tory said before kissing Gaby.

Tory walked back to the kitchen and cut a sandwich in half.
