"Welcome, competitors, Senseis, sponsors, and esteemed gusts to Barcelona, this year's home of the world's greatest karate tournament, the Sekai Taikai." Gunther spoke, all of the dojos and everyone else in the room clapping at the introduction.

Syd found herself looking toward Tory again, noticing the way it seemed the blonde was doing everything she could not to look over herself. And then her eyes moved slightly, once again making eye contact with Sensei Kreese.

She felt her stomach drop again, not understanding how the man was just smirking over her way instead of focusing on his team. It was making her nervous, but she guessed that was his plan.

Syd faced Gunther again, doing the best she could to ignore Cobra Kai. "The Sekai Taikai boasts a rich and proud history. And if you are here, it's because you embody all that the Sekai Taikai stands for. Leadership, respect, sportsmanship. Captains, step forward and tie on your headbands." Gunther instructed.

Syd sent Robby a small nod, the two taking a few steps forward before they both tied the headbands around their foreheads.

"Captains, you will have the honor and privilege to compete in our televised tournament of champions. But that is only if your dojo does well enough in our team competitions to make it to the final four. Once the tournament is over, we will then tally all the points your dojos have earned. The dojo with the most points wins the Sekai Taikai. Team events begin tomorrow. Each event counts. And they will all be a surprise. But today, it's about enjoying our host city and making new friends. Or enemies." Gunther explained, looking around the room.

Syd stared forward, feeling everything inside of her almost mute. She just felt like she was in a daze, watching her team from someone else's body. Except Cobra Kai wasn't her team anymore, and Kreese wasn't her Sensei.

"We have a field trip arranged for our competitors. And for our Senseis, a cocktail mixer with our distinguished sponsors, some of the world's finest martial arts brands. It's a beautiful day to make a first impression. And I suggest you enjoy it, because tomorrow, your lives change forever. Good luck, and welcome to the Sekai Taikai!" Gunther finished, everyone clapping and cheering in response.

Syd moved back to her spot in line, staring forward. "Hey, did you guys know?" Sam questioned, looking between Syd and Robby. It was obvious what she meant, Syds eyes only moving to catch Tory already looking her way again.

"No. I swear." Robby frowned, eyes moving Tory's direction as well. "Syd?" Sam wondered, a bit nervous. She didn't want to assume anything, but if Tory was going to tell anyone it would be the other girl.
