That day, after winning a hard fight against Javier, Johnny returned home with Miguel and Robby, the first place he went was to tell Carmen that her son was back, he goes to her apartment and knocks on the door.
When Carmen opened the door she was relieved to see Miguel and Johnny there.
Carmen (hugging Miguel): Miguel, thank God you're okay.
Miguel (crying and hugging his mother too): I'm sorry mom... I shouldn't have run away, you were right about my father.
Carmen: It doesn't matter now, what matters is that you're okay.
Miguel: Well if you don't mind I have to sleep now, I've been tired since we got back.
Saying that, Miguel goes to his room and Carmen and Johnny start talking.
Carmen: Johnny, I don't know how to thank you, you've done so much for me and Miguel since we met, but this...
Johnny: Don't thank me, you're the ones who changed my life, Robby, what do you think about staying with me for now?
Robby: I would love to, and if your dojo is in need of more students I would be happy to join.
Johnny: Believe me, nothing would make me happier.
A few hours later, Johnny took Robby to the dojo.
Johnny: Robby, welcome to Eagle Fang karate (he saw that the other students were already there) these are Devon, Bert and... Penis Breath you already know.
Bert: Sensei, where's Miguel?
Johnny: He's not coming today, it's a long story, what do you say Robby, are you ready for your first day at the most badass dojo in the Valley?
Robby: Yes sensei.
Johnny: Great, so let's get started... (his cell phone starts ringing) oh great, a phone call (he tries to answer his cell but can't) Robby, can you help me?
Robby (answering Johnny's cell): Hello.
Samantha: Robby... it's Samantha, is Johnny with you? I... I need to talk to him.
Robby hands Johnny the cell phone and he starts talking to Samantha.
Samantha: Johnny, glad you're ok, did you find Miguel?
Johnny: Yes I did, actually we're in the Valley now.
Samantha: Please bring him here, I really need to see him.
Johnny: No problem, are you home?
Samantha: No, I'm in the hospital.
Johnny was startled to hear that, he then said.
Johnny: Hang in there, we're on our way (he hangs up the phone) Okay guys, today's training is cancelled, you can come back tomorrow.
Robby was surprised to hear that, his father wasn't the type to cancel training.
Robby: Dad, what happened?
Johnny: It's Samantha, she's in the hospital, and she said she wanted to see Miguel.
Robby: Well since we don't have training today I have to go somewhere.
Robby leaves and Johnny hurries back to the building to get Miguel.
When he gets there, Miguel is scared for a while.
Miguel: Sensei, what is it, I was sleeping.
Johnny: It's an emergency, your girlfriend is in the hospital.
Michael: WHAT? why didn't you tell me this before?
Miguel was terrified to hear that, during the whole period that he was in Mexico he feared that something bad would happen to Samantha, but now when he was back, he finds out that she was in the hospital, hearing this, all the tiredness he had disappeared completely, he just wanted to know if she was okay.
Miguel and Johnny get in the car and rush to the hospital.
Miguel: Okay, where is she?
Before Johnny could answer they were interrupted by another voice, it was Samantha.
Samantha: I'm here.
Hearing that, Miguel runs to hug Samantha, but he is surprised, he imagined he would find her in a hospital bed, maybe with a broken bone or something, but no, the most she had was some bruises on her face, don't get me wrong, he wasn't complaining, he was just confused but relieved at the same time.
Miguel: Samantha, you're fine!... wait... what's going on? I don't understand a thing.
Samantha: I tried to explain, but Johnny hung up the phone as soon as he heard I was in the hospital.
Johnny: Okay, part of this is my fault, but what's going on?
Suddenly Demetri appears there too and he looks distressed.
Demetri: It's Eli, he's not doing well.
Miguel and Johnny are startled to hear this.
Miguel: Hawk? What happened to him?
Samantha: It's a long story, but first I need you to answer me something... WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?
Miguel: Well, that was expected, I made a mistake, I'm sorry I left without telling anyone...
Samantha (calming down a bit): Well... I think the important thing is that you're okay, but please don't scare me like that again.
Miguel: I promise.
They kiss.
Miguel: Now tell me what happened to Hawk?
Samantha: It's a long story...
Samantha, Anthony and Demetri tell Miguel and Johnny about their fight with Cobra Kai, but right after they finish, Chozen shows up.
Chozen: So, how is he?
Demetri: He had surgery, the doctors are taking care of him now.
Johnny: Excuse me, what did this guy come here for?
Chozen: I just came to check on MY students.
Johnny: What?
Before he has time to say anything else, Daniel and Amanda appear.
Daniel: Oh, I see you already met, Chozen this is Johnny, Johnny, this is Chozen.
Chozen (reaching out to greet Johnny): So you're Johnny, I've heard a lot of good things about you, it's a pleasure to finally meet you.
Johnny (shaking Chozen's hand): It's my pleasure... but wait, you said you heard good things about me, I'm sure it didn't come from your friend over there (Daniel).
Chozen: No, it was his daughter who spoke well of you, he just mentioned that you existed.
Daniel: Look Chozen, don't mind him, it's just that we have a... story... you wouldn't understand.
Chozen: Chozen understands, your daughter told me everything and I have to say, Daniel-San, you are the last person I expected to have a 30 year rivalry over a karate tournament, Chozen is disappointed.
Daniel: It's not just the tournament, there's a lot more involved.
Johnny: To be precise, he hit on my girlfriend.
Daniel: EX girlfriend and after that this guy and his gang pestered me every day, I had to do something to defend myself.
Johnny: And what you did? you wet me with a hose dressed as a shower.
Daniel (sarcastically): Oh sure, this sure is as bad as drawing a penis in my face.
Johnny: Look here Chozen, the funny thing is he talks about me, but when his daughter was losing in the tournament guess who was the first person he called for help? even though we tried to team up, we went our separate ways because he thought his style was the only one that worked.
Daniel: What? look who's Talking.
Amanda (sigh): Great, here we go again...
Daniel and Johnny start to argue.
Meanwhile, Robby was in front of Tory's house, he knocks on the door and Tory answers.
Tory (happy to see it was Robby): Robby, good to see you again.
Robby is happy to see Tory again, but he soon realizes that she has multiple bruises all over her body.
Robby: Wait, w... what happened to you?
Tory: No big deal, it was just a fight.
It was then that Robby remembered Johnny telling him that Samantha was in the hospital, so he was soon thinking the worst.
Robby: A fight? don't tell me this fight was with Samantha.
Tory: It was... she won again, but no problem, next time I face her I'm sure...
Robby: Wait, if Samantha won the fight... why would she be in the hospital?
Tory: It was because of a guy, Shawn Payne, he's new to Cobra Kai, he was fighting Hawk and...
Robby: Shawn Payne? like my juvie partner? I really agree that this is typical of him but... Wait, Tory, you're still on Cobra Kai?
Tory: Well...yes...
Robby: But why? I thought we agreed to leave Cobra Kai.
Tory: Robby, please let me explain, I have my reasons for being in Cobra Kai.
Robby: And what would those reasons be?
Tory: Sorry, but the less people know the better, plus I'm the best student there, so I'll keep them under control as long as I can.
Robby: Okay Tory, I trust you.
Tory: Thanks... by the way Robby... tell your father that... John Kreese is under arrest.
Robby: Wait, what?
Back at the hospital, Daniel and Johnny were still arguing, no one else could hear anything, until someone interrupted their argument.
Chozen, Samantha and Miguel: ENOUGH!
Hearing this, Daniel and Johnny fell silent.
Samantha: Dad, you still don't understand? just because Johnny has a different style doesn't mean you can't work together.
Johnny: That's right Larusso, listen to your daughter, after all if it wasn't for what she learned from me she wouldn't even get close to the final.
Miguel: Sensei, you're not right here either.
Samantha: Miguel is right, Cobra Kai beat us because they knew both styles, it was only thanks to that that I reached the final and Hawk won the tournament.
Miguel: Also, from what I've been told, Cobra Kai is more out of control than ever, if we team up we have a better chance.
Chozen: Daniel-San, I never said anything because I wasn't sure what we were up against, but after today I have no more doubts, the more these students know the better, whether it's defense or offense, so if we merge our Miyagi- Do with Johnny's dojo...
Johnny: Oh, the name is Eagle Fang.
Demetri: I know, weird name.
Chozen: Okay, so if our Miyagi-Do team up with Johnny's Eagle Fang, we'll have more students and more techniques, so we'll have more chance, two dojos are stronger than one.
Demetri: Excuse me, how long will it take for the two senseis to realize we're right?
Johnny: The geek is right, we may have failed before, but that doesn't mean it's over, for their sakes we have to make it work.
Miguel: Now you look like the Johnny Lawrence I knew!
Samantha: Dad, what do you say?
Daniel: You're right, Johnny, I'm sorry I didn't respect your style.
Johnny: I'm sorry too, if I let you train my students they would be even stronger.
Daniel: So it's settled, we'll team up.
Johnny: And this time it's for real.
Anthony: Chozen, officially you are the new sensei of... what is the name of the new dojo?
Daniel: Actually Johnny and I already talked about it in the tournament, it's Miyagi Fang.
Chozen: ... Alright, the name isn't that important, maybe in a few years someone will think of a better name, anyway, Johnny, let your students know that training starts tomorrow.
Johnny: Leave it to me.
Some time later, at Cobra Kai, Kenny and Shawn arrived at the dojo and they were full of bruises all over their bodies, Mike Barnes noticed this and soon asked them.
Mike: Payne, Younger Payne, what happened?
Kenny: A fight with Miyagi-Do, we lost.
Mike: Who was involved?
Shawn: It was the two of us, Kyler, Piper and Tory.
Kenny: And on the other side there was Lapusso, his older sister, the champion and that skinny Greek boy.
Mike: I understand and... have you guys seen Tory around?
Tory (arriving at that moment): I'm here, you want to talk to me sensei?
Mike: Yes Nichols, but if you don't mind I'd rather talk about it in private.
Tory: All right, if you insist...
Tory was surprised by her sensei's request, but she didn't say anything, after all she had a goal in mind, to take down Terry Silver and Cobra Kai, but for that it was better that senseis Silver and Barnes thought she was on their side.
Silver: Sensei Barnes, can we talk?
Mike: Sure, no problem (he looks at Tory) I'll talk to you later.
Mike enters Silver's office and they start talking.
Silver: So I guess you already know what happened to some of our students?
Mike: Yeah, they got into a fight with Miyagi-Do and lost.
Silver: Exactly, that guy Chozen is no joke, besides I heard that Lawrence is back.
Mike: He and Larusso will do anything to bring us down, if they team up again we could be in trouble.
Silver (laughing a little): Don't worry about that old friend, I was afraid this would happen, so I'm already planning the next phase.
Mike: Next phase? is this what i'm thinking?
Silver: Yes, the expansion of Cobra Kai throughout the Valley, after all, if there's anything better than a full dojo, it's a whole Valley of full dojos...
End of this chapter, as we can see Cobra Kai will continue to expand, will Daniel, Johnny and Chozen be able to contain this imminent threat? How will Johnny react when he finds out that his former sensei is in jail? and how will Tory react to discovering the truth about Mike Barnes? what do you think will happen? Find out IN THE NEXT CHAPTER.
WARNING: I recently started college, so the next chapters are likely to take a long time to come out, but I haven't forgotten about this story.
