She immediately came at me with a kick at, but I quickly blocked it, and she went to throw a punch at me, but I also blocked it and I kicked her in the side making her stumble slightly before catching her balance and she was able to throw a kick at my stomach making me almost fall, but I quickly balanced myself. Remember how Daniel show me how to do it and i looked back at her and threw couple punches at her, which she blocks well she tries to sweep her leg, to make me lose balance, but l jumps, dodging the attempt.

And I can tell that the girl was getting frustrated that she wasn't able to knock me out the platform she started throwing punches, but I manages to block them all until she kicked my stomach once again, and I knew it was probably gonna leave a bruise, and I stumbled back slightly, but quickly caught my balance, and Without really meaning to my eyes go to Kim to see

that she's already looking at me and she give me a simple nod and I bite my lip before looking back at the girl kicking her on the knee making her fall with a groan and I kicked her harshly in the face making blood come out of her mouth and completely fall off the platform

I bite my lip as I realize what I did and i looked back at Kim and she smirk and nod and my eyes go to Tory and she looked back at me she had a hint of worried because she saw that just a simple nod from Kim I lost it I use the techniques the old harshness I used to do like when Kim taught me

And my eyes go to Kwon to see that even he has a hint of worried ness, himself as he's never seen me fight like that and I looked down in shame before getting off the platform and helping the girl up giving her an apology smile and she just nod with a small smile that's it ok but I still felt guilty and I walked off and stand next to Miguel

Kayla it's all right you didn't mean to." Miguel told me and I nod slightly looking back down ashamed before looking at Johnny to see I'm looking at the scoreboard and I look at see it still wasn't enough and I sigh the others got up and we all go to leave but Johnny voice stop

Hey! Where the hell do you think you're going." Johnny asked making us turn around and look at him." Back to the hotel to wash off this disgrace." Dimitri told him like it was obvious." You're not getting off that easy locker room now." He told us seriously

we all looked at each other and start a walking my eyes going to Kim one last time before looking away from her to see that she's already looking at me and I follow the rest to the locker room

We're on the locker room sitting down as I still feel guilty about what I did earlier But I try not to show it right now as I'm sitting down next to Miguel

What I saw out there wasn't karate it was weakness you fought like little lambs Waiting for a slaughter. We keep going like this we get eliminated tonight. Some of you will put this behind you. But some of you are going to carry this for the rest of your lives." He told as he paste back-and-forth. Before stopping in the middle to look at us.

Knowing you all had this chance to make something of yourselves. But instead, you crumbled under pressure. And you're gonna go on to live shit lives in shitty apartments with a shit jobs

always have to live with this failure so if you want to save some humiliation, why don't we just skip the next round and catch the next flight home." He told us and I sigh and look down at my hands and start fidgeting with them slightly

What is wrong with you guys." He said and I felt a small hurt from his words as I stop fidgeting with my fingers and lean back against the locker." Where's your fight aren't you gonna stand up for yourselves?." He said seeing how none of us were talking Sam was the first person to talk

You keep blaming us like this isn't on you too if my Dad had been there, he never would've lost like that." Sam told him as she stopped, leaning against the wall." Yeah well he didn't show up." Johnny told her and she scoff lightly." Probably because of you." She told him

You keep disrespecting him trying to prove your way is better When it's so clear that we should've been using Miyagi-do you shouldn't even be wearing that gi." She told him and I bite my lip. As her words were a little harsh.

Hey, don't talk to my sensei like that." Devon said as she stood up and looked at her." your sense got your kicked off the board in ten seconds. so I will sit down if I were you. you're not helping us I don't even know how you made this team." Sam told her and I glared at her

Sam, you shouldn't exactly be talking because we're also losing points because of you not just because of her with so much you want to use miyagi-do then why don't you use it? Because Johnny says so he said it to all of us I didn't listen. I used it." I told her as I stop leaning against the locker and walked up to her

Yeah, but you didn't just use me miyagi-do did because we all saw you used cobra Kai too." She told me and I clench my fist tightly holding myself back from punching her

OK, so what? Yes, I used cobra Kai. I used my old techniques. I used my old punches kicks and the same harshness." I told her as I walked closer to her

Yeah, all because of simple nod from Kim and no matter how hard you try to deny it you're still cobra and you're always gonna be a cobra." She told me and I scoff at her words before punching her and everyone immediately stood up as Miguel grabbed my arm, pulling me back

Fuck you, Samantha I stop being a cobra. and I didn't do it for you. I didn't do it for anyone else in this room but Miguel because he asked me to if it wasn't for him. I would've still been in cobra Kai standing with them." I snap at her with a glare as I let Miguel dragged me back to sit with him and Demetri cleared his throat

Well, I for one will be putting all this behind me when I'm off to MI-." Dimitri goes to continue with the MIT but hawk interrupted him

Just shut the fuck up about MIT Some of us actually care about winning the tournament. It'll be nice if you did too." Hawk snap at him annoying that how much he brings MIT up." Guys can we call it? This isn't helping we need to focus up." Robby said I hold back a small scoff as he also the reason why we keep losing points and I can see Miguel was holding back a scoff himself

Maybe you should listen to your own advice already." Miguel told him and I hum at that." You two got something to say.." Robby asked as he looked at us." he already did and I agreed." I told him not being able to hold back with my own words, especially after the argument with Samantha

And I stand up walking away, with Miguel following behind me

Hey, I'm not finish." Johnny said and I looked at him." Johnny, no offense but I'm pretty sure we've heard enough from you." I told him as I didn't want my words to come out harsh towards him after all, he's like a father figure of me." She's right we've heard quite enough." Miguel added,

we both walked out the room and hawk immediately grabbed his back and follow behind us seeing Hawk leave everyone decided to leave too.

As I'm walking back to my hotel room a arm suddenly grabbed mines and I looked at the person and see Kim and i immediately snatched my arm back

I see you listen to me." She told me as she tilt her heads to the side." I didn't listen to you. I did what I had to do to win." I told her even though I knew that wasn't true." You could deny it all you want, but the events from earlier said something different specially with the things I taught you." She told me and I bite my lip

It was a mistake. I didn't mean for that to happen and it won't happen again." You say that, but in the end, it'll probably happen because you still have it in you even if you tried to hold it back like you've been trying to." She told me and I glare at her." Why exactly do you care." I asked as I fully turned myself to look at her

I don't. The only way that you will keep on winning is if you don't hold back it's a surprise that you and your teammates, have gotten this far with all those points still but I know and so do everybody else that's only because of you and your brother." She told me

I don't need you to tell me how I can win or cannot win and we've all gotten those points equally some more than others but still ." I told her even though the whole thing with the team is not exactly on good terms doesn't mean I wouldn't defend them

It's up to you whether you win or not you use the old method that I used to show you with the same harness I used earlier or you keep on fighting with holding yourself back from doing any more damage." She told me as she looked at me as she knew her own words were right

Bye Kim." I told her no wanting to hear anything else from her knowing her words end up getting into my head like they used to and I walked away as she watched.

All right chapter 5 is finished. I hope you all liked it. Remember to vote and comment. See you guys in the next one. Poor Kayla, she still feels guilty, even if she tries not to show it, and Kim words might get to her.
