The day of the Captains had finally arrived and to say things were tense was putting it mildly. Tory was nowhere to be found meaning it was the boys up first - both who had gotten the same speech by Johnny "Whether you win or lose, I believe in you"

Cherish takes Miguel's necklace which he had forgotten to take off before-hand and says, "I know you want this, but don't make it personal. You get personal and angry and that makes you sloppy. Okay?"

"No sloppiness," Miguel nods in agreement

"You got this babes," Cherish quickly kisses his cheek

Daniel stands on the sparing deck calling out, "Miguel, Robby, you're up first"

Miguel and Robby walk up the steps and bow before the Sensei and then walk to the middle of the mat. With Miguel on the mat Hawk and Demetri take a few steps behind Cherish considering the last time they stood by her and Miguel was competitively fighting she nails made red moon shaped indents on their skin.

Being the ref so it could be impartial Daniel says, "First to three points wins. Face each other. Bow. fighting positions. Ready? Fight."

They step tentatively towards one another and Miguel blocks a series of Robby's punches then misses with a kick. Miguel sweeps Robby's leg then punches him in the chest.

"Point Diaz!" Daniel calls out as the two stand back up and face each other "One point Diaz, zero points Keene. Ready? Fight!"

Robby lunges forward and Miguel flinches. Robby attacks with a mirage of kicks, Miguel blocks and doges them. Miguel counters with kicks of his own that drive Robby backwards. Miguel lands a roundhouse kick to the face that sends Robby tumbling down to the mat 

"Point Diaz! Two points." Daniel calls out as Robby slowly rises to his feet "One more and he wins. That's two points to zero. Ready? Fight"

Miguel and Robby circle each other with raised fists. Robby blocks Miguel's kicks and then blocks a punch. Miguel fakes a kick and then attempts a leg sweep, which makes Robby leap and twirls missing a leg sweep of his own. The two then block a flurry of each other's punches before Robby lands a punch on Miguel's chest
