Arizona stood in the Cobra Kai dojo, the dim lighting casting long shadows across the mat as she focused on the task at hand. Like the others, she was gathered around, listening intently to Kreese's every word. "Never underestimate your enemy," Kreese began, his voice commanding and cold as he paced around the students. "Even if you think they're weaker than you, you always have to stay one step ahead of them. That's the only way to guarantee a victory. Is that understood?"
"Yes, Sensei!" the chorus of students responded in unison, their voices firm and eager.
"Good. Now let's see if you truly understand the lesson." Kreese paused, his gaze sharp as he walked over to a log placed in the center of the mat, a delicate bonsai tree balanced on top. "I want you to kick the tree off the top. Red, you start."
Red stepped forward, his stance determined. He took a deep breath, then executed a swift kick aimed at the log. Instead of sending the tree flying, his gi ripped audibly, and he stumbled backward, landing heavily on the mat. Arizona couldn't suppress a chuckle, quickly covering her mouth with her hand.
"Pathetic," Kreese muttered, his voice dripping with disdain. He turned his attention to the next student. "Rickenberger, show him how it's done."
Rickenberger stepped forward, his expression serious. He attempted a triple spin kick, but missed the tree entirely, crashing to the ground with a pained groan.
"Stop your sniveling," Kreese snapped, his patience wearing thin.
Arizona felt a surge of confidence as she stepped forward, her gaze fixed on the target. She positioned herself, took a deep breath, and with a powerful kick, she struck the log with precision. The log tumbled to the floor, and the bonsai tree shattered upon impact.
Kreese chuckled, a rare smile crossing his face as he looked at Arizona. "Not bad. Not bad at all." Arizona stepped back into her spot, exchanging a victorious fist bump with Hawk.
"But she cheated!" Rickenberger protested, disbelief coloring his voice.
"No, she didn't," Kreese countered, his tone final. "Unlike you, she did exactly what I asked her to do." He began pacing around the students again, his presence commanding their full attention. "If your mind is agile, so are you. That's the best way to beat your enemy. Not just with brute strength. But you have to fight smart." He stopped in front of Hawk and Arizona, his eyes narrowing as he continued. "You do that, and you'll always come out on top."
