For Isabella LaRusso, survival has always been a fight-literally. Born decades after her half-brother Daniel, a man who doesn't even know she exists, she grew up under the weight of their mother's resentment. As soon as she turned eighteen, she vanished, leaving behind the name LaRusso and everything tied to it.
With no money and nowhere to go, she found herself in the underground fight scene of Thailand, clawing her way through brutal cage matches just to stay alive. Twelve years later, she's more than just a survivor-she's a fighter feared in every ring she steps into. But when she crosses paths with Feng Xiao, known as Sensei Wolf, everything changes.
He sees something in her-raw talent, unshaken will, and a hunger for more. Under his guidance, alongside the legendary Terry Silver, Isabella is introduced to a world far more dangerous than the underground rings she's known. A world where power isn't just taken-it's earned.
As she steps into their tutelage, forging her own path under Cobra Kai's ruthless philosophy, secrets from her past begin to unravel. The name LaRusso catches up to her, threatening to destroy everything she's built. But Isabella isn't that scared, forgotten girl anymore. She's a weapon-one Sensei Wolf is sharpening into something unstoppable.
And when the time comes to reveal who she really is... the world will know exactly what kind of fighter a LaRusso can be.
