Watching Daniel run over to the soccer try-outs I couldn't help but feel like something was going to happen especially since Bobby and Tommy were trying out for the team also.

I turned to look at Johnny who looked at me and winked, shoving down the urge to smile I scanned back to my brother who was dribbling with the ball, he was actually doing an okay job.

I watched as Daniel successfully got passed two tackles before Bobby slid and tackled Daniel "Ouch!" I looked behind me seeing Ali watching Daniel too.

I turned back just in time to see Daniel straddling Bobby and throwing punches "Shit" running towards him I saw people holding back Bobby as he tried to get to Daniel.

The coach stood between them looking down at my brother "None of that on this team!" Daniel looked shocked as I pulled him from the floor "He hooked me!" Daniel yelled fighting against me to get to Bobby.

Pulling My brother away from the fight Coach pointed in the opposite direction "I said out of here!" he shouted getting red in the face as my brother's temper surfaced, this wouldn't end well.

"Come on" I hissed pushing him away from the soccer field, as we passed the football tryouts Daniel ripped his arm away from me "Why don't you go back to them since you're all best friends now."

I eyed him angrily as he pushed me away "Don't touch me loser" I warned as he pushed me again. Knocking him to the ground, he grunted but quickly got up to his feet and grabbed me; I heard the other students shouting at us from behind.

"God, you're a bitch!" Daniel shouted in my face as I saw red, tackling my twin to the ground I pulled my arm back and swung it hitting him perfectly in the side of the face.

"Larusso!" neither of us stopped as all the students on the field ran up to us "Fight! Fight! Fight!" they all yell out encouraging us to fight on. I screamed as I felt someone lift me off of Daniel.

"You're dead!" I roared to him as Coach Carlson pushed Daniel away from me "This school sucks man! It sucks" Daniel shouted to the Coach's who were stood checking if I was okay.

Feeling arms around me I turned to see Johnny holding me, and the Cobra Kai's laughing at Daniel "You're alright princess" Dutch grinned in approval as he ruffled my hair.

"Are you okay?" Johnny questioned looking at me in concern as I nodded "yeah this isn't our first fight, and definitely not our last" the boys all chuckled around me and each patted me on the back.

"Well as long as you're good" I smiled at Johnny as he looked me over "thanks for that," I said motioning to where Daniel and I were scuffling "No problem" Johnny smirked as they all started to walk away.

"Oh and don't forget to ice those knuckles killer" I raised my eyebrow at the blond "Killer?" Johnny nodded as he walked backward again and shouted: "that was a killer right hook!"

Smiling to myself I walked away only to be stopped by Ali "That was a really shitty thing to do" looking at her in disgust I pushed past her "He started it... he always does."

Slamming my locker shut I turned to see the Cobra Kai's waving me over "What's up?" Johnny beamed at me from his bike "Wanna hang out?" the other boys smiled at me waiting for my answer.

I frowned unhappily "Sorry but Principal Louis called my mom about mine, and the idiots fight" I nodded in the direction of Daniel getting into my mom's car, his bike attached to the top "Rain check?" I told them walking off "Most definitely" I heard Johnny mummer to himself.

"What are you smirking for young lady, this is no smirking matter" Mom shouted out of the car window "Chill mom it's no biggie," I told her as she pulled into the street.

"No biggie? Have you seen your brothers face?" catching my brothers eyes in the mirror I glared knowing he already painted himself as the victim "You're dead" I mouthed and snickered seeing his eyes widen "Katherine!"

:::

Passing through the door, I threw my bag on the floor and jumped on the couch "Are you even listening to me Katherine" I nodded and tried not to get angry at my brother who was pulling faces at me from behind our Ma's back.

"It's not all my fault ma I tried to help him after he punched Bobby Brown in the face, but then he pushed me!" Daniel's eyes widen as our Ma turned to look at him "Daniel?"

Daniel started to stutter caught out suddenly "uh well..." Ma huffed loudly "Is that true Daniel" he nodded slowly "Yeah ma but see Bobby started it and then Coach was unfair."

Ma threw her arms up in the air "I can't believe you two, fighting on your first day of school. Now, Katherine, I believe you, but I thought you knew better."

Ma shifted back to me with fire in her eyes, "but that is no excuse to hit your brother Katherine" I jumped up furious "So it's ok that he called me a bitch why does he always get to be the favorite and I'm always the trouble."

Ma put up her hand "I don't want to hear it, I've got a big meeting to go to, and I want you two to spend the rest of the afternoon out here doing something together. Maybe you'll bond again".

Ma grabbed her purse and walked to the door "No more fighting" she warned as I walked into my bedroom and slammed the door hoping to spare sometime before having to hang out with Daniel.

:::

An hour after being ferociously chewed out by our mother we were both in the living room spending time together to 'bond' again, so now I'm spending my afternoon watching my twin brother practice karate from a book.

"You know that'll never work right?" Daniel stopped kick to give me a dirty look I put my hands up in surrender "Just saying" A knock at the door broke us out of a sibling fight we both looked to see the handyman at the door.

"Come in" I called to him as Daniel carried on kicking "Fix faucet" I pointed him to the kitchen seeing no real reason to be polite after our first meeting "It's the kitchen one" The handyman bent down getting to work but kept his head above the counter watching Daniel "Karate?" he asked in a knowing voice.

"Yeah" Daniel looked at me awkwardly probably wondering why the handyman was talking to him "Very good" I laughed as Daniel looked at me again "Learn from book?" Daniel glanced at the book in front of him "And a few months at the Y in Newark."

Back in Newark, our Ma put us in classes to help keep ourselves safe if we were ever in danger, we both took Karate but my mom put me in beginners boxing so I could work out my anger issues probably explains why my 'killer' hook is so good.

"What happened to eye and face?" Daniel sighed before kicking harder "I fell off my bike" I looked at him confused why he would cover for me and the Cobra's to someone we didn't know.

"Lucky no hurt hand" I laughed to myself but stopped when I saw him looking at my bruised knuckles accusingly, pulling down the sleeve of my hoodie I avoided his gaze only to meet Daniel's amused one.

Pouting to myself I crossed my arms "Whatever..."
