Rudy asked the cops if he could speak with Jack and I knew he was trying to get him to be part of our gang, did I think he could do it? No, if he made something up? Yes deffinatly, my brother can be pretty convincing. I was listening from the ceiling, well it was a little beam that hung from the ceiling but it was very stable and an' amazing place for hide and seek
"You're in big trouble Jack, but if you join my dojo and help me win 2 belt's then I'll tear up this report and you won't have to go to Juvie" Rudy said "Juvie?" Jack and I asked confused, I covered my mouth as they both looked around "Anyway that's jail for kids fella" Rudy said threateningly...Okay you do not go to juvie for something as small as what Jack did "I would join your dojo but I'm not a karate guy, I'm a skater" Jack said standing from the chair "Really? You beat up four Black Dragons and did a perfect side kick through my wall which by the way nearly took out my little sister" Rudy said, I rolled my eyes...dude if I can get over it so can you
"Okay 1st I'm sorry about you're hot sister and 2nd the truth is my grandfather was a karate sensei, he even trained Bobby Wasabi for all of his movies" Jack admitted, as soon as he mentioned that I think my brother forgot about the little comment slip up, they started talking about the whole thing and I lost interest, I jumped down and landed on my feet, they both jumped
"Look, if you guy's don't hurry up and make the deal im'a side kick you both through a wall" I said pointing a finger at them both "Do we have a deal?" Rudy asked Jack, he nodded and they shook on it, Rudy went back into the dojo and Jack turned to me, I smirked "So you think I'm hot huh?" I asked, he chuckled nervously "Yeah I guess" he replied, the rest of the guy's came out after hearing the news and we all decided to go get something to eat.
The next day we were all sat in the booth when Kim walked over she was a nice girl, but was a part of the Black Dragons so I wasn't allowed to speak to her "Hi Jack, Danny" she said in greeting, I smiled and the other boy's said Hi to her "Can I talk to Jack for a minute?" she asked, I got out but the others wouldn't move "Guy's can you give me a sec. Vamoos" Jack said, they didn't move at first "That means go" Jack said getting annoyed, Jerry broke out of his stare "I know what it means..." he said, he started talking Mexican I think and we all walked out.
I was in Rudy's dojo playing with my yoyo when Jack walked in, late may I add, spinnig a staff "Hey guy's sorry I'm late" he said "Sorry doesn't cut it Jack. Wait where did you get that astronaut bo staff?" Rudy asked...astronaut? What the flip? "It was a gift from the black dragon's, see we can all use it" Jack said offering it to Rudy...uh oh "Uh no, students from this dojo are forbidden from entering the black dragons" Rudy stated "What? You can't forbid me from doing anything" Jack said angrily
"Why'd you betray me like this? If it wasn't for me you would have been banned from the mall for 2 weeks" Rudy defended, only we all noticed his slip up, I walked over to them "Banned from the mall? I thought I was gonna go to Juvie?" Jack asked, Rudy looked nervous "You know I say a lot of things, I'm what they call chatty" Rudy said, I rolled my eyes...he wasn't wrong
"You lied to me, you broke the wasabi code" Jack exclaimed...the what? Rudy started stumbling over his words "You know what? Kim was right, this place is a joke, I'm outta here" Jack said handing Jerry the staff and storming out, I chased after him and spun him around "Look I know what he did was wrong but don't blame him" I said pleadingly "Why not he lied to me?" he asked/shouted "He doesn't want to lose the dojo, this place is like home to all of us we all have different but very important reasons for being here and he knew that" I said, after my small speech I left to let him thing it over.
The next day we were packing everything and so was I, my mom was only letting me stay here with Rudy to learn karate...personal reasons but now that it was closing down I had to go back home to Canada, I was putting some stuff into boxes for Rudy when Jack came in "Jack? You're back" Rudy said hopefully "I'm just here to get my stuff, what's going on?" he asked noticing all the boxes
"We're closing, no Jack no belts no dojo" Jerry said sadly, I nodded and Milton's dad came storming in "Milton David Crupnick!" he yelled "So this is you're French horn lesson huh?" he asked "Look dad I'm sorry, I was taking karate lessons because bully's were beating me up for taking French horn lessons" Milton explained, I sighed "Let's go Milton, you're lucky you didn't hurt yourself" his dad said
"Don't worry, it's closing anyway. This was the only place I felt I really belonged, I guess I'll let my bully know I'm available" Milton said looking at us, I put down the stuff I was holding and hugged him tightly, his skinny arms went around my waist and I glanced at Jack who looked guilty "Now my mom's gonna send me back to Mrs King's dance academy, my body was not made to mambo" Eddie said, I chuckled
"Guess I'm a lone wolf again, that's how I like it, don't think for a second I'm gonna miss any of you meat bags" Jerry said, although we could all see he was tearing up "And I'm going back to Canada" I admitted, they all looked at me "What?" they all asked in sync, I hugged Rudy side ways and nodded "I was sent here to learn Karate, I'm not joining the Red Dragons again so my mom said she's sending me home...for good" I explained,
I walked over to Jack "I told you we all had our reason" I said, he nodded "See you round guy's" Milton said waving, we all waved "Milton, hang on" Jack said, he pulled a wooden board out of one of the boxes "Why don't show your dad how you break a board" Jack suggested, Milton explained that he couldn't break it
"Just believe in yourself and do it" Jack said "No I can't, when I was born my parents thought they had given birth to a baby bird" he said "Just do it Crupnick!" Jack shouted, Milton yelled and brought his hand down on the board, it broke and I cheered "Holy christmas nuts" he said in shock "Milton?" His dad said "That ain't a baby bird right there" Marge said, I smiled
"That was unbelievable Jack, these guy's are your friends, they didn't break the wasabi code I did" Rudy said apologetically, Jack shook his head "I broke it too" he said, he looked at us "You don't walk away from your friends when they need you" he said, I smiled and walked over to him, I hugged him and he hugged back "Wasabi?" Rudy asked doing the sign, we all did it "Wasabi" Jack said, we all cheered and the guy's started their training.
It was the day of the competition and I was sat on one of the benches, the Black Dragons came on and they did some fancy flips, but when the Wasabi's came on they strutted in, I covered my mouth to stiffle my laughter, they sat down next to me and I read off the clipboard "Okay guy's Eddie's first" I said,
he was praying on the mat and Jack ran over to talk to him, then to everybody's surprise Eddie got the huge opponent down "Awesome we got our first belt" Rudy said excitedly, Jerry was up next, he did some good moves but then hit himself in the nuts, we all cringed and Jack ran over to him "All I see is purple" Jerry said, I chuckled despite the situation,
Jack helped him over and I helped him sit on the bench "You okay?" I asked, he nodded "Okay Milton you're up next, if you brake more boards than your opponent then we win our 2nd belt" I said, he nodded and lifted up his hands which were covered in green oven mits "Would you please take off the oven mits" Jack begged
"Don't you mean weapon warmers" Milton exclaimed throwing them off and walking out onto the mat, he and his dad had a shout out and I laughed, but then he stepped up to the board and I tensed up "Double it" Milton demanded "Say what? "Yes! My man's going for the win!" Jack shouted, they cheered and so did I despite my nervousness, he took a deep breath before breaking the boards, I jumped up and cheered "He got the belt, we're saved I can keep the dojo!" Rudy shouted, he high fived Jack and I hugged him,
I hugged Jack aswell and we both pulled away slowly, Milton suddenly started doing the nipple twister which was an awesome move, only problem was it was illegal, he got the belt taken away "Milton what were you doing the belt was in your hands. Do you know what that means?" Rudy asked "It means I just had the best moment of my life" Milton replied still smiling
"That's it, Danny's gonna have to move back in with my parents" Rudy said sadly while sitting down, I shook my head "No we still have a chance, Jack's up next" I pointed out, Jack was up against Kim, he was about to do the move when the teams leader Frank kicked him in the leg, we all gasped and ran over to him when he fell down
"Rudy, Danny I can't get up" he said, I sighed "Yes you can yes you can" Rudy said eagerly "No Rudy I can't get up because you're kneeling on my leg" Jack said, I rolled my eyes "My bad" Rudy said moving, I helped Jack up and helped him to the bench, I heard Kim quit the Black Dragons and I walked over to her "Hey, why'd you quit?" I asked, we both sat on the bench while Jack got ready to do the flip "Because they cheated, it wasn't right" she explained, I nodded and we both turned to Jack.
Turns out the kid was gonna try and do it on his hands, no way, it all went into slow motion, he flipped and hit the stick, it flew over us and hit Milton's dad in the head, we all jumped up and cheered before running over to Jack, the Red Dragons all left and I let the guy's do their fly kick for the photo.
We were all chilling in the dojo while Jack played with an' apple, he dropped it and it landed on someone's foot...Kim's "Kim what are you doing here?" I asked in shock "I quit the Black Dragons, you guy's were alright in the tournament but the way I see it you need all the help you can get" she explained handing Jack his apple
"Woah, you can't just walk in here and become a part of our dojo, you have to take a test "Jerry stated crossing his arms "Okay" she said shrugging, she knocked down all the dummies and the guys looked shocked "What do you think guys?" Jerry asked "She's in" "Got my vote" "A plus" They all said, I chuckled and they all turned to me "What?" I asked "Your's is the most important vote" Milton said "Why?" I asked "Because your's matters to us" Jerry said, I smiled and looked at Kim "I guess it would be awesome to have another girl around" I said, she smiled and nodded.
