The Serpent Queen

Cobra Kai Never Dies | Part Four

Phoebe gauged her father's regrettable expression, "You used this move and hurt someone, didn't you?"

George nodded, "It's why I'm so against karate in general and Cobra Kai. I don't want it to turn you into an angry, nasty person who hurts people and shows no mercy to them. I will regret using that move for the rest of my life and I will never use it now."

"I won't. I promise I won't use the move."

"The story doesn't end there yet. After I was taught the move, I once again left Cobra Kai, but not officially this time and I was at this club one night trying to hook up with a girl or two and guess who finds me, Kreese's ponytailed partner."

A teenage George stood in the club with his back to a support beam. It had been a few weeks since his brutal training at the dojo. His knuckles had healed mostly. He had to explain to his parents and brother that he accidentally punched a wall. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

"Well look who it is."

The teen looked over to see who spoke and approached him. It was his old Sensei's friend. The man who taught with the Quick Silver method. The man snatched his cigarette straight out of his mouth, "What do you want?" George spat.

"I came to ask a favour of you. You see that guy over there in the red jacket..?"

George looked over to see a dark haired boy the same age as him in a red jacket dancing with a pretty girl. "What about him?"

"That is Daniel LaRusso. I need you to go over there and flirt with his date."

"No. I know you taught Daniel, the Quick Silver method as well. I'd rather not be on the receiving end of it."

"Aww, come on, Georgie. He's too soft, he won't use it."

The young Alexopoulos boy didn't like that nickname so he fired back, "What's in it for me, ponytail?"

The instructor ignored the nickname that was clearly meant as an insult. He took out his wallet from his trouser pocket. "How does $20 sound? You could buy another packet of cigarettes for that, or find a girl or Danny's girl over there and take her on a cheap date. You'll get it after."

"Alright fine."

Ponytail guided him into the dance floor so he could slip into the crowd. While George would flirt with Daniel's date, he would distract Daniel by pulling him aside to chat with him.

George slipped in and out his arm around the girl's shoulders, "Hold up, sexy lady. I've been watching you and you are hot."

Daniel broke away from his Cobra Kai instructor over to his date, Jessica, "She's with me, man."

"Says who?" George asked.

Jessica told him herself, "Says me." She and Daniel began to walk away.

George pushed him when his back was turned, "I'm taking her home."

Daniel spun around to face him and with a single punch, the red jacket boy punched him hard in the nose exactly like he had been taught.

George fell to the floor. Because of the incident, the club's security had came onto the dance floor and pulled up him off the floor.

"Up you go. What happened?" One of them asked.

Blood streamed from George's hand as he clutched it. The blood stained his fingers and his hand, "He broke my nose, man." He looked around for Daniel and Ponytail. They were nowhere to be found, along with the girl. Security decided to escort him out of the club completely, "Where's that guy with my money?"
