[SEASON THREE: EPISODE TEN]
[PART ONE]

"I don't know how to say it any plainer. Eagle Fang and Miyagi-Do have to work together." Sam explained to everyone, frustrated by the lack of attention as the others remained absorbed in their personal issues.

"Even if we wanted to team up, it'd never work. I was in Cobra Kai. Their style mixes with ours like...." Chris paused, searching the right comparison.

"Oil and vinegar?" Nate asked.

"No, not salad dressing." The boy shook his head.

"I would say like the British Bulldogs and the Hart Foundation."

"They were friends, dipshit." Mitch scoffed.

"Not at WresteMaina 3, Penis Breath."

"Okay, you can't call me Penis Breath. Only they can call me that."

"Why are you okay with anyone calling you 'Penis Breath'?"

"You know what? Screw this. Come on, let's go."

Mitch and Bert got up from their seats and started to walk out when Demetri stood up, grabbing their attention.

"Hey, pussies!"

"This is exactly what those assholes at Cobra Kai want. Since you were of them, you're an asshole too."

"I ain't no asshole."

"Well, at least I wanted to be one. But now Cobra Kai is the worst collection of assholes in the Valley, run by the king of all assholes. So by merging with Eagle Fang.... Weird name, by the way. Can keep us all from getting shit on anyone, then we'd all be assholes not to do it.

"I'm sorry for all the 'assholes'. I usually take pride in my grandiloquence, but.... It's an emotional time."

Demetri's speech appeared to resonate with everyone. The two boys exchanged nods and returned to the couch, taking their seats once again.

"Now.... Where do we start?"

The group of kids gathered around the dining room table, engaging in discussions about the rules and necessary steps for them to collaborate effectively.

"We're all in agreement that our new combined dojo should train at Miyagi-Do. But deadlocked on a new name, Gi Design, Post-Training Snacks, and Sensei Dispute Resolution Protocol."

"Okay, not good, but still, it's a start."

Suddenly, the sound of a cat meowing from outside caught everyone's attention.

"Aw, I think your cat wants to come in." Bert remarked, rising from his seat and heading towards the back door.

"Here. Kitty, kitty."

"I didn't think you had a cat." Ethan said, raising an eyebrow.

"We don't." Sam replied, shaking her head in confusion.

A loud crash echoed as Bert came flying through the kitchen window, landing on the ground. The back door swung open, and all the Cobras swaggered in, with Kyler and Hawk leading the way.

"It's payback time, Shithead."

Ethan and Nathan rushed over, pulling Bert off the floor before guiding him to the rest of the group. The Cobras advanced, making them to step back.

Suddenly, the front door slammed open, making them spin around. Tory marched in with two other boys right behind her.

"Heard you were throwing a party. Hope you don't mind if we crash."

"Tory, you don't have to do this. Kreese is the real enemy."

"It's too late. This ends tonight! No mercy!" She yelled, and rushed forward.

Everyone assumed a fighting stance as the real battle was about to begin.

Kyler threw a punch to Williams's face, causing him to fall to the ground.

"Call that a kick? Come on!" He yelled, throwing his arms up.

Ethan attempted a roundhouse, but his opponent grabbed his leg and tossed him over his shoulder, causing him land on the edge of a table. The boy cried out in pain, feeling the sensations radiating from his lower back to his legs.

Sam grabbed Alex and threw him down on the ground. As she turned around, she immediately noticed a familiar person standing right in front of her.

The brunette began walking backward in fear as Tory kept marching up to her. She quickly turned back around and ran outside, heading to the dojo with Nichols trailing behind her.

Kyler grabbed him by the back of his jacket and threw him against a wall. He began punching him in the lower back, which was still healing from his surgery.

Everything seemed to be in slow motion, and Ethan watched his surroundings, witnessing Hawk and Demetri working together.

Suddenly, the voices of Johnny, Daniel, Mr. Miyagi, and Sam echoed in his head as memories flashed through his mind. From falling out of a hospital bed to relearning how to walk again.

"I don't know if you can hear me, kid. But I know you got it in you to pull through. Never give up. You can do this. I know you can."

"I bet if anyone can beat these odds, it's you."

"A true karate champion relies on their strengths and learns from weaknesses to keep pushing forward."

"It's okay to lose to an opponent, but must not lose to fear. Stay focused, Ethan. Your best karate is still inside you. Now, time to let it out!"

Williams et out a loud yell before pushing himself out of Kyler's grip, spinning around and putting his fists up. The Asian boy attempted to throw a punch, but He shoved his arm down.

Ethan swung his fist out, but Kyler caught it, throwing himself on the ground. He tried to pull the injured boy with him, but instead, he flipped him over.

He hovered over him and attempted to throw a punch, but Kyler kicked him in the chest, sending him across the floor. Out of breath, Williams immediately pushed himself to his feet, with his adversary doing the same.

"Come on! Come on!" The boy challenged, jumping up and down, and ran forward. However, Ethan was ready for anything.

"Let's do this!"

He delivered a roundhouse to his face, making him jerk his head to the side. Then, he spun around, sending another kick towards his chest.

Kyler lunged towards him, and he wrapped his arms around the boy's waist, flipping him over and sending them both down to the ground very hard. With one last strike to the face, he knocked Kyler out cold.

"I've beaten you once more. Thanks for the motivation, by the way." Ethan panted before taking back a few steps, holding his arm up against his stomach. He walked over to Demteri and Hawk, who both looked surprised.

"Where's Sammy?"

"I think she's in the dojo."

The boy hurried out of the house and rushed inside the Miyagi-Do dojo. He charged at Tory, grabbing her by the waist and pulling her away from the brunette.

"Tory, stop!"

"Let go of me!" She yelled, aggressively pushing him away.

He tried his best to stop her, but, he was now injured thanks to Kyler. Nichols elbowed him in the gut and threw him back, making him groaned as he hit the floor.

"Back off!" Sam shouted, intervening quickly and pulling her harshly, throwing her back against the wall with the Bo staff.

"Guys enough!" Ethan yelled loudly as Hawk and Demteri ran into the dojo.

"Tory, the fight's over."

"It's not over." She shook her head, looking at her enemy with a bloody lip.

"This will never be over, LaRusso. You hear me?"

"You know where to find me." Sam glared harshly, and Tory walked closer to the two original Cobra Kai members.

"Traitors! You better watch your back!"

"Yeah, well, like I told you when first we met, I never planned on joining Cobra Kai in the beginning. I really wanted to take it down, and that's still my plan." He said, glancing at her with a determined look on his face.

"He won't have to. He's got friends watching it for him." Demteri said, as she walked passed him and out of the dojo. Ethan cracked a proud grin before Sam pulled him off of the floor.

"Are you okay? Your nose is really bleeding." She said, sounding concerned.

"You were just magically here."

"Well, someone's gotta protect you. Did I ever never told you, how much of a badass fighter you are?" Williams asked, jokingly, as they connected their lips.

"Yeah, now that you mentioned it."
