Chapter 2
It was a Saturday evening when Aisha first met Bert. That little kid came to her house, and they both went in the 'rabbit hole'. The next day, Aisha went to Bert's house, and they discussed and chatted. That kid was just like her, nerdy, lonely and without friends. His parents were happy that their little boy was now finally making friends, be it a girl older than her. Aisha knew her parents also feel the same.
Now it was Monday evening and both of them were standing in front of the Reseda mini-mart. Both of them were looking at a brand new signboard.
"Cobra Kai Karate".
Aisha felt her hands shaking. She swallowed a little bit.
"Are you feeling nervous?"Bert asked her.
"A little bit, but yes. This time, it's just not learning karate, but a lot more responsibilities."She replied in a dry voice.
Bert took her right hand into his tiny left hand and squeezed it lightly. Aisha smiled at him.
"Let's do this." She said.
Both of them entered the dojo and saw Miguel. He was standing at a corner, punching a dummy. A tall, blond, black clad man was standing next to him.
"Are you a loser?" that man barked.
"No, sensei!" Miguel punched the dummy, hard.
"Are you a nerd?" that man shouted.
"NO, SENSEI!" Miguel shouted and punched the dummy even harder. The dummy was shaking violently now.
Then that man turned his face and his deep blue eyes fall over them.
"Welcome to Cobra kai." He said, looking at Bert.
After a little bit of 'no girls in Cobra Kai' (Miguel convinced him just like in the DVD), sensei Johnny Lawrence enlisted them as his students.
"So, Miss Robinson, why do you want to join Cobra Kai?" Sensei asked her.
"I am fed up being the constant target of cyber bullying. Now I want to kick some ass." Aisha said.
"And I want to help you find your redemption, sensei." She thought.
She told him about her constant harassment. How she got abusive messages every day. Sensei Lawrence listened all of them with a scowl in his face. Then he gave a small lecture about how in his time, one can harassed someone in his face.
Then the dreaded time came.
Sensei Lawrence ordered her and Miguel to fight. Miguel was sceptical (just as before!). But Aisha was now prepared. She took a deep breath and stood on the mat.
"I am sorry." Miguel said. Then in a swift motion, he punched her in her stomach.
Aisha felt like her full body was flying in the air. That punch was powerful. Only one punch knocked her over the mat.
"Oh my god! Aisha, you okay? I am so sorry."Miguel came to her, holding his hand.
Aisha took her hand and somehow stood up. Then, with a scream, she lunged on him. Miguel was not prepared for an attack. She tackled him on the mat and jumped on him, attacking his torso.
"Oww...my ribs." Miguel screamed in pain.
Sensei Lawrence, who was watching them till now, came to them.
"The girl is a natural cobra." He muttered, with a smile in his face. Then he looked at Bert.
"Let's see what you got, kid. Come here, punch this dummy."
Bert, who was watching silently, came to the dummy and took a fighting position. Then he started punching that dummy.
Meanwhile, Johnny Lawrence was looking at his two new students. Both of them were not Cobra Kai material by physique, but their minds were strong. Now he would mould them into fighters, badass and courageous fighters. No one could ever harass them.
After the training, the three students took a stroll, chatting happily. Miguel Diaz was happy, because he finally got some new friends to talk. Aisha told him that she will add him to her facebook friend list. Then the three happy kids went to their homes, hoping for a new day.
Meanwhile a certain car dealership owner was having trouble concentrating in his work. Today morning, while driving in front of the mini-mart in Reseda, he saw something. Something that shaken his core. It is like a ghost from his past came to haunt him again. Thirty one years have been passed, but Daniel Larusso felt every single incident just like something happened in yesterday.
Then he heard his wife and business associate, Amanda, calling him from outside his chamber. It took every single ounce of his will power to get his mind away from the new 'Cobra Kai' dojo and start doing his work again.
"Darling, the club send us the invitation for the party." His wife said to him in an excited tone.
Daniel smiled at her. He was indeed very lucky to have a wife like Amanda. He could depend on her in any situation. He was blessed with her and her two lovely children. His life was perfect. Mr Miyagi would be very proud on him.
But still, he felt that a thorn was poking in his bliss. That thorn which was now slowly taking the shape of a coiled cobra.
