The Serpent Queen

Celebrating at the Country Club

Phoebe's parents thought she needed a little time to rest and relax after the car incident. When they heard about it when Phoebe got home that day, they were shocked and appalled. They immediately comforted their daughter and suggested what they suggested. Even George told his father to extend the Country Club invitation to all the Cobras....even Hawk.

Phoebe had also extended the invitation personally to outside the dojo to two specific people in her life, Moon and Demetri. The hippie carefree cheerleader accepted, while Demetri declined due to Hawk and the Cobras who beat him up in the mall. She had reassured him that he was safe and they wouldn't dare to look at him if she, Miguel and their grandfather were there on their own turf. He still declined.

All the Cobras arrived in several cars and all mostly at the same time.

The Cobra who need this the most, Phoebe, sat in deck chairs with Moon, Tory, Aisha, and Miguel. She had a simple table chair to prop her left leg up with it.

The other Cobras sat several metres down from them in their own little groups amongst the amount of other members of the club. Children ran around screaming and splashing in the pool with their many pool floats. The parents were talking, drinking, or eating.

Hawk, Rickenberger, Big Red, Mitch, and Edwin all dragged their own deck chairs to sit together. Edwin had music playing from his phone.

"This is great! Just what we needed." Rickenberger hollered as he took off his shirt and flung it onto a deck chair next to the pool.

Mitch grinned, "A little R&R in the heat surrounded by hot girls that we don't know, this is the life."

Big Red stretched out on his chair. "Thank Phoebe for getting us all in. I hear she's pretty tight with management."

"The owner actually." Hawk corrected. He carefully set his stuff by his deck chair. He didn't want to throw anything anywhere as he knew for a fact Stavros was somewhere on the property. What grandfather wouldn't want to defend the honour of his grandchildren, especially since he was the primary wrongdoer in both situations? In Stavros' eyes anyway. So the teen would do anything to keep all attention off himself today.

"I feel bad for Phoebe though. Because of Circus-freak, she can't even walk properly, let alone train and fight." Edwin said.

"Circus-freak deserved everything she got. I may not be together with Phoebe anymore, but if that bitch came back into the dojo, I'd kick her ass right out of it again to save Phoebe doing it. She's gone through enough."

"Agreed. Now enough talk of her. Why don't we get some drinks?"

"I bet you they won't serve us here due to a certain somebody's connections."

"They won't, especially to me. Edwin, go up to the bar and get us some sodas." Hawk snapped.

Edwin sighed and disappeared over to the bar. When he did, the three other boys leaned in and had a hushed conversation.

"We agree not to rat each other out about the other dojo?" Hawk said.

"I'm not a snitch." Big Red stated.

Rickenberger fist bumped him, "Yeah."

Mitch nodded, "Agreed."

"Cobra Kai for life." Hawk smirked.

"You were right, Hawk. Sodas only. The bar tender even gave me a tray to carry them on." Edwin announced coming back with the drinks.

Phoebe stretched out on her deck chair as much as she could with her other leg propped up on another chair. Several bags of ice covered with towels sat on her ankle and next to her left hip and thigh. She had brought a good book to read since she couldn't get up and move about or go for a swim in the pool. A parasol stood tall over her covering her body mostly in the shade to avoid the ice melting too quickly.
