[SEASON FOUR: EPISODE THREE]
[PART TWO]

After class ended, The students of Cobra Kai, exited the building. Kreese strode towards his office when the front swung wide open.

"Turn around, you son of a bitch." The man demanded. The old man smirked, hearing that familiar voice, and turned back around to face him.

"Well, well, well. Look who's here." He said before stepping forward.

"You know exactly what you did. I was living a perfectly happy life and you had to mess with my head by dredging up the past."

"I just reached out to an old friend. But if the past bothers you so much, maybe you've got some unsolved issues." Kreese pointed out, shrugging his shoulders.

"Mm. I told you, I go over my issues." Terry stated.

"Really?"

"Yeah." Silver replied.

"Or did you just lock those memories away so long you forgot who you are?"

"Was! 'Was,' Johnny."

"Oh yeah. You're a better man now. Is that why you're here? To tell me how wonderful your life is?" Kreese questioned, walking closer up towards him.

"Or did you look in the mirror and realize what you've become?"

"You're just an old man in the last chapter of his life, clinging to some bullshit happy ending."

Terry sighed, before taking his shoes off and had stepped onto the mat.

"Now we're talking."

"Why couldn't you let sleeping dogs lie?" He asked, as they both circled around each other.

"There are hundreds of other senseis in the Valley that could help you win your little war."

"There is no one in the world I trust more than you." Kreese said.

"This isn't my fight. Not anymore."

"If you believed that, you wouldn't be standing here. You miss this, don't ya?"

"I don't miss a damn thing." Sliver chuckled lightly.

"Bullshit. I can see it in your eyes. You've gotten this far, Terry. What's stopping you now? Wondering where your grandson is? Afraid you're a little rusty?"

Terry took a few steps back, then performed a couple of kicks and punches, before stopping, holding his fist up against his friend's face.

"Not bad. Not bad at all." Kreese complained.

"I shouldn't have come back." The man said, walking off of the mat and putting his shoes back on.

"But you did."

"You know, not all the memories were bad. But the ones that were, we got through them together. There's still time to finish what we started. The choice is yours."

"If you ever mention my son or Ethan to me again. I won't hesitate to end you." Sliver stated, taking one look at his old friend before walking out of the building.

"All right, what's the problem, LaRusso? Don't tell me you're scared of heights." Johnny taunted as he approached Sam, who was sitting down on a wooden platform, looking down at her phone.

"I'm not scared." She replied.

"Then what is it? Worried you'll mess up your hair?"

"My dad wouldn't want us doing this."

"Oh, gimme a break. Do you do everything you're mommy and daddy tell you to? If They told you to jump off a bridge, would you?" Sensei questioned, raising an eyebrow.

"You're literally telling me to jump a building."

"Yeah, onto another building." He nodded his head." All I'm trying to do is help you doormats survive the All-Valley."

"If we do your training, I don't think we'll survive the afternoon. Look, we came here with an open mind, but this is dangerous." The brunette retorted.

"I know what I'm doing." Johnny reassured her.

"Do you? Based on your track record, you don't have the best judgment."

"Oh, you wanna talk judgment? How about smashing into my Firebird and driving off with your girlfriends?"

"I wasn't even driving. I was in the back seat."

"Showing up at my place drunk, causing your dad to kick down my door? Guessing that wasn't your fault either?"

"I'm a teenager who's made mistakes." Sam stated, standing up on her two feet.

"You're a 50-something-year-old man who lives alone, drinks all day, and clearly hasn't figured out his own life."

"I figured out one thing for sure." Sensei nodded his head.

"If I did everything my parents wanted me to do, I'd be wearing a suit and tie in some worthless job while I wait out the clock. But I didn't want that."

"And now I get to do what I love every damn day. I get to try to help kids like you find their own way. If you wanna sit in the back seat your whole life, go right ahead. It's no sweat off my back."

"So no one wants to fly?"

"You all just want to stay in the nest. Pathetic!" The blonde man shouted, glancing at the students who were sitting down.

"Fine, you win. You can bore Cobra Kai into submission. You all failed. Grab your crap and let's go."

"Looks like you got what you wanted." Sensei muttered.

Without another look back, Sam dropped her backpack, distance herself enough from the edge, then ran as fast as she could, gaining enough momentum to successfully land on the other side.

"Nice move, LaRusso!" He cheered, as well as the rest of the Miyagi-Do students.

The next day at Miyagi-Do, Daniel had the students of Eagle Fang try to catch a koi fish. Mitch groaned throwing his head in annoyance.

"Damn it! How do they make it look so easy on Hillbilly Handfishin?"

"Shit! This is impossible!"

"Patience. You'll figure it out." LaRusso said.

"I think I've figured something out." Ethan muttered, slowly getting in the water. He turned around to face his classmates, sending them a nod.

"Come on, guys. Get in the water."

They all looked at each other, confused, before rolling their selves and getting into the water.

"Follow my lead. Walk in a circle." Williams ordered, walking around the balance board, while the rest followed him. The boy looked down in amazement as all the koi fish swam with them before going underneath the board.

"It's working. They're all going under the board."

Ethan slowly reached his hand underneath the board and suddenly pulled out a koi fish, letting out a little laugh.

"We have a winner!" Daniel announced.

"Good job, Ethan. Good job." He said, patting him on the back.

The teacher and top student were standing in front of each other on the Okinawa sparring deck, while the Eagle Fangs watched the whole thing playout.

LaRusso pulled out a black headband with a red Japanese symbol in the center of it and began unraveling it.

"When Mr. Miyagi gave me mine, he said this represents perseverance, courage, and strength."

"But.... This one's meant for you, Mr. Miyagi wanted you to have it, before he passed. It represents peace and courage. And also does a pretty good job of keeping the sweat out of your eyes."

As Ethan turned around, Daniel placed the headband at his forehead before wrapping it tightly.

"Thank you, Sensei." The boy said, and they bowed at one another.

"You were always apart of Miyagi-Do, even if that means going to going to a different dojo."

A/N: alright, guys. Let me explain and clear up any confused things to you guys about Ethan in this story.

Season 1.) - He returns back to the Valley, meets Johnny Lawrence, learns a new style of karate, rather than staying on defense all the time. Reunites with Sam, but not with her father, because he believed that the time wasn't right.

And, on the night just before the 50th All Valley tournament, he wants her to go this party Cobra Kai's having at the Canyon. A later she arrived with Robby, who Ethan thought they were together, so he went to hit him, but Sam got in the way, knocking her down. Also destroyed their friendship in the process.

The next morning, Ethan arrived at the area, and doing whatever he can to take his mind off of what happened last night. After Johnny finally appeared and gave his students a speech to motivate them.

During the tournament he started the right way, but after trying to apologize to Sam for what happened last night at the party. He became very angry and started fighting more aggressive, he used that as motive against Robby, in which caused him to feel so enraged, and won the tournament.
