"This all could be over in an instant. The decision's yours! Who trashed the Miyagi dojo?" Johnny asked angrily.
"Y'all know I'm no fan of LaRusso's, but that sort of bullshit we don't teach in here. At least not anymore." Johnny stated as he walked over to Kreese. "So, I'm gonna ask you again. Who trashed Miyagi- Do?" Johnny repeated. "It's not me, Sensei. I would never disrespect another man's dojo-" Ray started. "Shut your cakehole chubs." Johnny snapped, cutting him off. "I'm not looking for excuses. I'm looking for answers!"
"Sensei, we really don't know who did it." Miguel panted heavily. Alana nodded in agreement, "Somebody knows something. Question is...who's gonna break?" Kreese questioned looking at Hawk. A phone in Johnny's office started ringing. "Keep going we could do this all day!" He yelled before walking to his office.
The kids continued doing exercises while Kreese watched. "Sensei, we need a water break," Mitch begged, walking over to Kreese. Kreese looked around at the sweating and panting kids. "Two-minute break!" He yelled, making all the kids sigh in relief. Miguel helped Alana up and put his arm around her waist. "Thanks, Mig." She panted, "No problem."
Neither of them was aware that Tory was glaring at Alana. At first, Tory felt guilty for making a move on Miguel but now she didn't. Tory knew that miguel wouldn't be with her if Alana was in the way, So Tory just might give her a push.
As Alana was drinking, she felt a hand land on her shoulder. She looked up to see it was Johnny and Miguel. "I need to talk to you two for a second." Johnny stated. "Yeah ok." She replied. "What's up?" miguel asked "One of my buddies, he's not doing well so I'm gonna go see him, but Kreese, he's going to be in charge. So maybe keep an eye on things? both of you."
"Yeah." "Sure thing." Alana and Miguel both said. Johnny nodded his head before leaving the dojo. "Alright, break time is up. All of you in the back room now." Kreese demanded.
Kreese made everyone do strength workouts. Miguel, Ray, Tory, Aisha, and Alana were using the ropes while Hawk, Mitch, and the others were lifting weights. "Keep going. I have all day." Kreese stated as he walked around. "You think it's ok if I puke in here?" Ray asked. "No," Aisha replied. "Navy SEALs puke all the time."
"Do not puke," Alana ordered. Ray looked at her with fear "He's not gonna let up. We gotta figure out who did it." Miguel panted, sweat dripping down his forehead. "I bet it was shit breath." Tory spat, nodding towards Mitch. "Screw you." Mitch retorted. "What did you say?" Tory questioned dropping her ropes. "Wanna do this right now?" Mitch challenged moving towards her.
Miguel shoved Mitch back while Alana pulled Tory back. "Stop!" Kreese demanded catching all of their attention. "Would you really like to know who did it?" Kreese asked.
All the kids stayed silently, panting heavily as they waited for Kreese to continue. "It was Hawk." He stated, pointing to the mohawked boy. "And it was Diaz." Miguel's face turned into confusion "And Chambers." Alana glared at the man "And Robinson." "And it was Nichols, Chubs, Red. When one of you makes a move, you all make a move. You live and you die with the consequences and the spoils. Because you are all Cobra Kai."
Alana glanced over at Miguel, who glanced back. "Main dojo, five minutes. You're about to begin your real training." Kreese said with a smirk. The kids all left the backroom, leaving Alana and Miguel behind them. "I've got a bad feeling about this," she mumbled to Miguel. "Me too." He mumbled back.
•••
Soon the five minutes were up and Kreese made all the kids get on their knees so they could watch sparring The first ones were Tory and Mitch.
Mitch went to throw a punch but Tory blocked it before kicking him in the stomach, sending him to the ground. "Point," Alana yelled, holding up the red flag Kreese had given her. "Hit him again," Kreese demanded.
Tory looked at Kreese confused, glancing between him and Mitch. "Do you have a problem with that?" Kreese asked. Tory kept glancing between him and Mitch, "A fight isn't over until your enemy is finished. You show your enemy no mercy."
Tory nodded her head. She ran at Mitch with her knee up ready to knee him in the face when, "Wait!" Alana yelled, making her stop. "This isn't what Sensei Lawrence has been teaching us." She stated.
Kreese looked at her "Excuse me?" He questioned slowly walking towards her, making Miguel move closer to the girl. "There's no honor in being merciless. Tory scored a point. It's over." Alana added
Kreese looked at the girl, a small grin forming on his face. "Sensei Lawrence is right, of course. In a tournament, the fighting stops when you land a point. But in the real world, it's not about scoring points. It's about being a winner or a loser. And there are no losers in this dojo." Kreese stated, stopping in front of Alana.
•••
It was the next day and Alana had changed into her gi and met up with Miguel. "Lani, listen, I think you should apologize to Sensei Kreese." He stated. "what? why?" Alana asked, looking up at the boy. "Because he was teaching us something that could benefit us. maybe you should've just listened instead of criticizing him." Miguel replied with a shrug.
Alana sighed and walked into the backroom where Kreese was lifting weights. "Sensei Kreese?" She called. "What can I do for you, Ms. Chambers?" He asked.
Alana sighed, "I wanted to apologize for yesterday. It was disrespectful of me to challenge your lesson." She said. Kreese set the weights down on the floor before turning around to face her.
"You honor Sensei Lawrence with your allegiance. And allegiance is nothing to apologize for. Sensei Lawrence's heart's in the right place, but I'm afraid...he's a little mixed up. Together, the two of us will make sure he gets back on track. Won't we?" Kreese asked, placing a hand on Alana's shoulders. "Yeah," she quietly said, Kreese grinned before giving a pat. "Good. Now let's go to our class."
The kids all got into their fighting positions and started practicing their punches as Kreese walked around them. "Cobra Kai is not a hobby. It's not a club. Cobra Kai is your brothers...and your sisters. You are all Cobra Kai for life because Cobra Kai never dies" Kreese stated.
