Playing With Fire (Terry Silver)

Chapter Nineteen

(A/N Hi guys! Sorry for the delay in getting out this chapter. I needed a mental health break for sure. Thank you for your continued support! -R)

"Kreese, your granddaughter's here."
A guard says with a small eye roll. He was excited at the slim chance that it may be Amara, but that small hope was taken away when Tory stood in front of him.
"Hi grandpa."
"Hi granddaughter."
He smirks. Tory sits across from him,
"How did our little sting pan out?"
Tory shakes her head a little,
"Not the way we hoped. Sensei Silver didn't even bat an eye. He's just been focused on expanding the dojos."
"That's unfortunate."

Kreese notices Tory staring down at the table,
"Is there something else?"
He questions. Tory looks him in the eyes, debating on whether or not to tell him the truth.
"Yeah."
She admits and Kreese motions for her to go on.
"Sensei Silver has really got his claws deep into Amara."

Kreese sighs, he knew this would happen. He noticed the way that Terry looked at her and spoke about her. He should've done something before Terry had the chance. He should've striked first. That was regret he was going to have to live with. But he will strike back, eventually.
"You and I are the only ones who can trust each other."
Kreese says
"What about Amara? Maybe she can help us take down Silver."
Tory suggests. She feels terrible lying to her best friend who has been nothing but good to her. Kreese shakes his head.
"For all we know, Amara will tell Terry everything. She cannot be involved. Is that clear?"

The real reason he didn't want to involve Amara was because John knew first hand, just how dangerous Terry really was. Terry is rich and powerful. He has connections, he can bribe, blackmail, or fight almost anyone.

Tory gives a nod.
"Yes, Sensei. How much longer do I have to stay at the dojo?"
Tory asks, disappointed. Kreese purses his lips together,
"I know how difficult it is to be behind enemy lines. But I need you there for a little longer."
A buzzer sound went off catching the pairs' attention.
"I got a plan to get out of this place."
"You do?"
"Yeah. I'm gonna play the hood solider, which is what I need you to do. So do whatever Silver says, but keep your eyes and your ears open. Now he's smart. But he'll slip. And that'll be the opening that we need. Can you handle that?"
Kreese instructs. Tory gives him a firm nod.
"Yes, Sensei."
Kreese nods,
"Good."
He answers.

After Terry's run in with Daniel, he decided that he was going to need a partner. He called someone he knew that could be trusted, Sensei Kim Da-Eun. He arranged for a private plane for her and six Sensei's of her choosing in exchange for fifty percent of Cobra Kai. Kim was weary of the deal and she wasn't prepared to accept the offer just yet. She wanted to check out what this 'Cobra Kai' karate place was all about and if it was worthy of her and her grandfather's teachings.

Meanwhile, Amara was in the exercise studio of the house, taking out her anger on some poor, unsuspecting dummy. She had tears in her eyes and with every punch and kick she did, they became harder and more aggressive. Terry was out taking over another karate dojo, Topanga Karate. Terry wanted her to meet Sensei Kim Da-Eun tonight over dinner.

Amara was beginning to get sick of karate. With Kreese gone, Cobra Kai just didn't feel the same anymore. She missed the old dojo. The new one was way too high tech and over the top in her opinion.

Amara couldn't stop thinking about how much her life had changed over the past few months. After her mother passed, she moves in with her grandfather. Now, she's living in a mansion with a team of staff that watches her every move. Her whole life is being controlled by Terry, and she doesn't even notice it. Terry does a good job at making sure she can't realize how trapped she really is.

Amara tires of practicing in the exercise room and goes to her bathroom to take a shower.

After her shower, she puts on a robe and decides to begin getting ready for her dinner tonight.

Once Amara is ready, she decides to hang out in the living room. She brings a book she's been reading, 'Mad Honey' to the living room and sits on the lounger to kill some time.

About an hour later, Amara feels a hand on her shoulder that causes her to jump a little. Terry lets out a dark chuckle,
"You're so cute when you're scared."
He says, Amara closes her eyes and takes a deep breath before opening them again.
"I see you're all ready for your dinner tonight, good girl."
Terry praises, sitting next to her and cupping her face in his large hand.
"Um, yeah."
Amara awkwardly pulls back. She was beginning to feel more and more afraid of Terry with each day that passes. Ever since Kreese was arrested, he was a different man. He was darker. Always had this look of revenge behind his eyes.

Terry's eyes grew dark when Amara pulled back from him. He roughly grabbed her wrist,
"Come on, angel, let's go to our room."
He orders her. Amara was too scared to say no. So she stood up from her place on the lounger and heads to the bedroom. Terry closes the door behind them and turns to Amara with a smirk on his face

"Doll, I've gotta ask, do you like to make me mad?"
Amara's eyes widen at his tone.
"W-what?"
She asks, scared. Terry steps closer to her, wrapping his arms around hers, forcing her to stay.
"I said, do you like to make me mad?"
Terry repeats himself, grabbing her throat in his hands, sounding even darker than the last. Amara shook her head in fear.
"P-please."
Amara begs, trying to get Terry off of her throat. Terry just smirks, Amara goes to sweep his legs but with the lack of oxygen, her kick is pretty much useless,
"Uh-uh bad girl."
Terry says in a menacing voice. Amara is scared. A tear falls from her eye and Terry licks it off her cheek. He finally loosens his grip on her throat when he noticed her struggling stop. Terry chuckles,
"Do you know what you're doing to me?"
Terry says, pushing Amara onto the bed.

"Terry! Enough!"
She screams at him, quickly rushing to get off of the bed.
"I'm sorry, okay?"
She apologizes.
"If you're really sorry, give me a kiss."
Terry orders her and he nearly laughs when she comes over and kisses him. He's got her wrapped around his finger.
"Mhmm. See what happens when you obey? Now go fix your hair, we need to be leaving soon."
Terry orders her. Amara nods and quickly scurries to the bathroom. Closing and locking the door behind her.

Amara sinks to the floor and just cries. She needs to get the hell out of this place.
