Hot For Sensei

Chapter Sixty

At Cobra Kai, Johnny killed the engine and flew out of the truck, Ivy following close behind. Johnny was so enraged that she couldn't help but be a little frightened, but if that's what it took to stop Kreese, then she was behind it.

Johnny stomped forward and threw open the doors to the Dojo, hitting the bells so hard they almost fell down. Ivy tried to keep up as he stalked off to the back Dojo and kicked the door open with a shout. Kreese was there standing smugly next to a punching bag, instructing Robby on some kicks. Ivy's anger flared as she noticed that he was wearing a Cobra Kai Gi, and it was enough to catch Johnny off guard.

"What took you so long?" Kreese asked Johnny, like this was some long-awaited reunion, and Robby turned around.

"Robby..." Johnny let out a disappointed sigh, "What are you doing here?"

"He's exactly where he belongs, as are you." Kreese said and took a few steps forward, "Three generations of Cobra Kai working together. We won't just dominate the tournament, we'll melt this whole snowflake generation!"

Ivy tensed as Kreese stepped closer, but Johnny seemed to be lost in a daze, still trying to comprehend how Kreese managed to snag his son.

"This is really your last chance, Johnny." Kreese warned, "Are you in, or are you out?"

"Listen to him, dad." Robby spoke up from the corner, "He only wants what's best for you."

Ivy watched as Johnny continued to glance between Kreese and Robby, conflicted.

"Johnny, wake up." Ivy said sternly, "Carmen and Eagle Fang are what's best for you. You're your own person, you always have been."

Johnny looked to her, but it was hard to tell what he was thinking. He then looked back to Kreese and took a few steps forward. He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.

The next thing she knew, Johnny was kicking at Kreese with a loud shout. She backed up, surprised, as Johnny started to punch at Kreese. Kreese blocked some and dodged others, but Johnny was no where near done. He waited for Kreese to duck, then grabbed him to knee him in the gut. Kreese faltered with a grunt, and Johnny let lose a flurry of punches to his face. Kreese was able to bring his arms up to block his face, but Johnny kicked him in the gut, cornering him against the wall. Kreese dropped his arms in a daze, and Johnny wailed on his face again, one heavy punch at a time.

Kreese managed to kick Johnny back, but only a second passed before Johnny kicked him back, sending Kreese to the floor. Kreese pushed himself right back up to stare down Johnny.

"Is that all you got?" he mocked him.

Johnny rushed forward, tackling Kreese into the front Dojo, and Kreese turned to slam Johnny into the wall. Kreese moved to punch, but Johnny ducked, only to receive an elbow to the face when he righted himself. Johnny stumbled back, taking another hit to the face as Kreese moved forward. But Kreese rolled on his heel and fell into a wall, giving Johnny time to get out of the way. He slipped into the side bathroom to recover but was out a moment later to kick Kreese in the chest. Kreese tried punching again, but Johnny blocked quickly and moved to land some punches of his own, forcing Kreese farther and farther into the front Dojo. Johnny leapt up and kneed Kreese in the chest, sending him flying to the ground on his back. Not wanting to give him any time, Johnny sunk his fist down to try and land another hit. But Kreese caught his fist and held it, pressing his foot into Johnny's gut to keep him back and lift him up. Johnny struggled to keep himself down, but Kreese grabbed his neck for more leverage.
