It had been a few days since Kenny joined the dojo. Everything was going well. Taylor was staying at the dojo with Robby and nobody was bothering her. Kyler was still a little bitter to Kenny, but Taylor figured it was all for jokes now. She did hope that Kenny thought the same way. He probably didn't.
Taylor was peacefully stretching with Robby and Tory before Kyler walked up to the three. "Yo, guys. My boy Rory, he got some free tickets to the drive-in tonight. Think they're going old school with this, something called Bloodsport."
"I know that movie." Robby spoke. "My dad left an old VHS at our place. For a while, it was the only evidence I had that he existed." Taylor rolled her eyes playfully, letting out a small scoff.
"I heard it's pretty dope. So, if you guys are in, let's do this," Kyler continued.
Tory shrugged. "Depends on how late I have to work tonight. My new boss put me on the schedule for today. Guy's a total creep."
"You got a new job?" Robby questioned, seeming interested. "Where you working?"
Tory looked down, lightly shaking her head. "It's none of your business."
"Okay." Robby mumbled.
Taylor looked over at Kenny, who was just walking up to the group. "Look who made it." She said with a smile. But her smile faltered once she saw the unamused look on his face. "What's wrong?"
Kenny, standing in-between Robby and Tory, said, "I was at the high school yesterday and these older kids started messing with me. This one guy told me I should quit Cobra Kai."
"Who was he?" Robby asked.
"I don't know. He had this spiky red hair."
Hawk. Taylor scoffed, shaking her head.
"We still owe that Judas some payback." Tory said.
"Hell yeah." Kyler nodded.
Kreese then walked into the room. "Everyone fall in." Taylor walked forward on to the mat, standing next to Red. "As you know, our enemies are working together. They are combining their styles to beat us. But they are destined to fail. Because there is only one way. And what is that way?"
"The Way of the Fist, sir!""Exactly." Kreese spoke. "However, that doesn't mean that we can't double down." Taylor furrowed her brows. "Class, meet Sensei Terry Silver." Taylor turned her head to the side, and then out came a tall man. He had his grey hair tied up in a small ponytail and was already wearing his own Cobra Kai gi.
"Co-founder of Cobra Kai and one of the most ferocious fighters in the history of the sport." Kreese said as Silver stood next to him. "Together, we built Cobra Kai from the ground up, and now he is here to help you prepare for the All Valley."
The two Senseis turned to each other, gave each other a bow, and turned back to all the students. "Thank you, Sensei Kreese." Silver said, standing straight again. "It's an honor to be here."
"With two Senseis, you will receive twice the instruction. That means twice the work," Kreese continued. "And if you are not prepared to put in two hundred percent, then you can leave right now."
"But if you dig in and follow our lead, we're gonna take you to the next level." Silver added.

Taylor sat outside of the dojo, not sure what to do. Kenny and Robby were training with each other inside, and everyone else had left.
Suddenly, a chime was heard from Taylor's phone. Taylor took her phone out of her pocket and looked at the text message from Quinn.
