cruel summer

TONIGHT

Miguel, Demetri, Robby, and Eli stood around in the front of Miguel's complex. "So, Uh, what's the emergency? Why'd you have me bring all my gear?" Demetri asked holding up his backpack.

"You know as much as we do. Sam just told us to meet here." Miguel replied "at least she's talking to you. I can't even get a response from—" Robby said before Eli cut him off.

"Y/n? Tory?" Eli furrowed his eyebrows. The three boys turned their heads in the direction Eli looked at. Sam, Y/n, and Tory walked up to them. The blonde's hand bandaged up now. "What's, uh...what's up. Hi?" Miguel said confused.

Y/n stood beside Tory. She glanced at Demetri who already happened to be looking at her. He looked away from her. "What happened to your hand?" Robby asked Tory. "Uh..." Tory looked down at her hand "training accident" she answered "I'm okay"

"We think we have a way to prove Silver assaulted Stingray" Sam informed, "if the attack happened at the old dojo, Silver installed security cameras," Tory said. "So, maybe it's all on tape?" Miguel suggested "no, that place was cleaned out" Robby shook his head.

"That might not matter. The systems we sell at TechTown all save the footage to a central server. Silver probably took the whole system with him" Said, Demetri. "I think he did. There's a server in his office at the flagship dojo." Tory informed.

"if we access it, we can find that footage. We should post that Stingray clip to their YouTube channel" Eli said. "Get a hold of everyone else. Let them know where taking down Cobra Kai...tonight." Sam ordered.

"If it's the same alarm system, I should be able to bypass it," Robby said as they all approached the dojo. "Spoken like a man that's done this before," Demetri remarked. "Karate wasn't my first hobby. I fractured a law or two before we met" Robby replied.

"Or we could just scan my keycard." Tory pulled out her card "so those of us in probation keep from, you know, violating it" Tory said. Robby gave her a side smile.

Chris and the rest arrived. Chris dapped Eli "what's up, man? Sorry we're late. Someone took forever to get ready" Chris and the rest looked at Mitch. "It's the middle of the night," Mitch replied.

"What is she doing here?" the curly-haired boy asked looking at Tory "it's fine. She's with us...For what we're about to do at least" Sam said. "So what are we doing?" Mitch asked. "All your text says is that we're gonna take down Cobra Kai. But how exactly?"

"We're gonna show them who their sensei is. We think we have proof he's a criminal." Miguel answered. "We're going upstairs to Silver's office. We need you downstairs as lookout." Sam added. Everyone nodded but before they could walk in someone called out.

"Y/n"

Everyone turned their heads. Andy approached them. Demetri looked at Y/n. The raven-haired boy rolled his eyes "of course" he muttered.

"What is he doing here?" Eli looked at Y/n. All eyes were back on Y/n. Y/n opened her mouth to explain but the chocolate-haired boy beat her to it. "I'm here to help. Y/n sent me a message you guys were gonna take down Silver. I wanna help" Andy said.

Sam looked at him with suspicion "I promise. I'm here to help. After Y/n told me what he did—I don't wanna be in Cobra Kai. Especially if we're not gonna win fairly." Andy told them but looked at Sam.

"Okay, well how exactly do you plan to help?" Miguel stood closer to Sam. "Cobra Kai doesn't know I want out, so, I'll help distract them if they come." Andy now looked at Miguel.

Sam still was suspicious of him. "I'm over hurting people. I've learned my lesson. Y/n made me realize some things. So...I'm sorry to every one of you guys that I hurt. Especially you, Demetri" Andy looked at Demetri. Demetri glanced at the chocolate-haired boy.
