The backyard of Miyagi-Do was quiet for a moment, save for the faint rustling of the leaves in the wind. Alessia, Eli, Demetri, Sam, Miguel, and Bert all stood around, absorbing the weight of the conversation. The air felt thick with disbelief as they recounted the shocking events from the party the night before.
Alessia couldn't hide her astonishment. Her mouth hung open, her eyes wide as she glanced from Sam to Demetri, waiting for some confirmation that this was some kind of sick joke. "W-w-wait. Okay, so Sensei Silver paid off the ref at the All Valley and framed Kreese for a crime he didn't commit?" Demetri stammered, his voice rising in disbelief. When everyone nodded solemnly, Demetri let out a groan of frustration. He looked between Alessia and Eli with a desperate, pleading expression. "Never let me miss a house party again," he begged, shaking his head in disbelief.
Alessia chuckled, still stunned by the turn of events. "Yeah, I would have come, but you know..." she trailed off, the words getting stuck in her throat. She didn't feel the need to elaborate—her reasons for staying home the night before were personal. She had decided not to go because she was concerned about someone bringing drugs, and she didn't want to risk losing her sobriety. She was grateful that her friends understood and supported her decision. Staying home and watching her niece and nephew had felt like the safest choice, even if it meant missing out on the chaos that followed.
Sam's voice cut through the tension, a soft but heavy question. "What are they gonna do? We saw what happened to my dad when he confronted Silver. I don't want him getting hurt again," she asked, her eyes filled with concern. She looked at the group, her sadness palpable as she sought answers that no one seemed to have.
Alessia's heart sank at the thought of Daniel being left battered and bruised after his last encounter with Silver. The image was still fresh in her mind. She let out a slow breath, her eyes flickering to Sam. "If this ref and Stingray are on Silver's payroll, they'll never admit anything," Alessia said, her voice laced with defeat. She shook her head slightly, as if to dismiss any hope of a quick resolution.
Out of the corner of her eye, Alessia noticed Bert flinch at her words. His body language stiffened, and he looked down, avoiding her gaze. Alessia turned to face him, her brow furrowing in concern. "Bert..." she warned softly, but firmly.
