Johnny: I... I'm thinking about proposing to Carmen.
Daniel and Chozen were happy to receive this news from their friend.
Daniel: Wow, Johnny, that's a big step.
Johnny: Yeah, I know, we're having a baby, I think that would be the best thing to do.
Chozen: Johnny-San, I'm so happy for you.
Daniel: Just one question, Miguel and Robby know about this?
Johnny: Yeah, I told them last night.
Johnny's Flashback
That night they were at my apartment, Carmen had a busy day at work so she went to bed early so I figured this would be a good time to tell them.
Johnny: Miguel, Robby, we need to talk.
Miguel: Sure sensei, what's the problem?
Johnny: I'm about to make a very important decision, something that affects all of us, but I want to make sure you guys are ready...
Robby: Dad, what are you thinking?
Johnny: I want to propose to Carmen.
Miguel and Robby were silent for a while, they took a few seconds to absorb what Johnny said.
Johnny: Like I said, it affects all of us, but I'm only going to do it if it's okay with you two, I...
Miguel: I... I think that's a great idea.
Johnny: Really?
Robby: Miguel is right, you are happy together, you're having a child together, it makes perfect sense for you to propose to her, and don't worry about me, I support your decision.
Miguel: Me too.
Johnny: Thanks.
He hugs them both, and so it was decided, Johnny would propose to Carmen.
End of flashback
Daniel: Johnny, congratulations, I'm very happy for you.
Johnny: I still have to buy her a ring, I might need help with that.
Daniel: No problem, let's go to the mall now, Chozen, are you coming?
Chozen: Hai, I'll go with you.
They're heading to the mall, but halfway through Johnny reveals he has more to talk to Daniel and Chozen.
Johnny: Look, it's not just the wedding, there are other things that are freaking me out right now.
Daniel: Like what?
Johnny: It's the baby, I mean, I'm excited, but at the same time I'm also worried.
Chozen: Johnny-San, don't worry, you will be great father.
Johnny: Thanks Chozen, but I'm not so sure, especially if it's a girl, boys are easy, I can teach him to play ball games, drive, karate, talk about 80's movies and do all those things I understand, but if it's a girl... What do I know about raising a girl?
Daniel: Look Johnny, based on my experience as a parent, I can assure you that raising Samantha was a lot easier than raising Anthony.
Johnny: Yeah, but it's easy for you, you're practically a woman in men's clothes.
Daniel (sarcastically): Gee, thanks...
Chozen: I'm no expert on subject, but I think what Daniel-San meant is that at the end of the day, raising boy and raising girl is not that different, and that everything will be fine regardless of whether it's boy or girl. .
Daniel: Exactly Chozen, that's what I meant, and if you have any problems, I'd be happy to help.
Johnny: Thanks.
Some time later they arrived at the jewelry store, and started looking at the rings.
Salesman: Gentlemen, may I help you?
Johnny: I'm looking for an engagement ring, and no, it's NOT for either of them, it's for a woman.
Salesman: Of course, we have a lot of options, let's see if we can find something for you.
The salesman showed Johnny several rings, but he didn't like any of them.
Johnny (looking at the rings): No, no, no, no, no... WAIT! This one, this one is perfect!
Salesman: Excellent choice.
While Johnny chose the ring, Daniel and Chozen talked.
Chozen: I'm really happy for Johnny-San, he really wants to make this proposal unforgettable.
Daniel: Yeah, he doesn't even look like the old Johnny I knew, okay, but what about you? Are you sure you don't want to buy something for Kumiko when you get back to Japan?
Chozen: No Daniel-San, to be honest I don't know where my relationship with Kumiko is, I mean the last time I called her I was drunk and I was sliced by sword.
Daniel: Yeah, that night was crazy, and I know you still blame yourself for the things that happened back then, but believe me, if there's one person in the world who has forgiven you for what happened back then, it's her.
Chozen: You really think so?
Daniel: Of course, remember she was the one who called you to talk to me, and just before I go back to the US she asked about you, as your friend I think you should tell her how you feel, you told me yourself, heart is the most essential quality, and Kumiko knows your heart.
Chozen: Maybe you're right, thanks Daniel-San.
Johnny: Okay, I'm done here, I'll just go to the bathroom and then we can go.
Meanwhile, Anthony was also at the mall, he was in the bathroom, but when he left he bumped into the person he least wanted to see, Kenny.
Anthony: Oh, crap...
Kenny: Why don't you watch where you're going?... Lapusso.
Anthony: Look, man, I don't want to fight.
Kenny: Too bad...
Kenny goes towards Anthony, but suddenly someone else appears, it was Demetri.
Demetri: Hey, leave him alone.
Kenny: Excuse me, did someone call you into the conversation, Greek Geek?
Demetri: Look, as far as I can remember I don't need your permission.
Kenny: Wanna throw down? You won't even see what hit you.
Demetri: Really? Let's find out then.
Anthony runs away, and Kenny starts attacking Demetri with several punches, but Demetri blocks all attacks, until after a while, Demetri grabs Kenny's arm and throws him against the wall, but then, someone else appears, someone who Demetri didn't know, Cobra Kai's newest student, Yoon.
He doesn't even say anything, just runs towards Demetri, grabbing him from behind, and after that he threw him against the wall, but Demetri was still standing, Yoon went towards him and started to attack him with some punches, but Demetri blocked all the attacks, he then managed to land a kick on the Korean boy, but then Yoon took the soap that was on top of the sink, and rubbed it in Demetri's eyes.
Demetri screamed in pain, and then Yoon hit him with a kick... At that place, Demetri was down, so Yoon grabbed him and was ready to deliver several blows to him, luckily, someone else entered the bathroom at that time.
Johnny: Let him go punk!
Yoon: Get out of here, old man.
He runs towards Johnny and tries to hit him with a kick, in the same place he hit Demetri, but to his misfortune, Johnny blocks the attack, and easily knocks the boy to the ground.
Johnny: You're lucky I have mercy, now get the heck out of here!
Yoon comes out of the bathroom, as he knew he wouldn't stand a chance against Johnny, and Johnny goes to check on Demetri.
Johnny: Are you okay?
Demetri: I guess, I've put up with worse, thanks.
Johnny: You're welcome, who was that guy?
Demetri: I don't know, I've never seen him before, but I can imagine what dojo he's from.
After that little fight in the mall bathroom, everyone went back to their homes, and continued living normally.
The next day, at the Larusso house, Samantha had just arrived home, and there was someone else with her in the car, it was a woman.
Samantha: Okay, we're back.
Tory's Mom: Thank you dear.
Samantha: No problem, whenever you need me I'm available.
Exactly, Tory's mom had to go to the doctor today, and Samantha offered to take her, and even with everything that happened between her and Tory, the truth is that she and Tory's mom got along great, however, without she knowing, Tory was there, and she had witnessed the whole scene, and when Samantha was alone, Tory confronted her.
Tory: So you mean you got mad at me because I was bonding with your brother and you do the same thing with my mom?
Samantha: Tory, it wasn't that, I just took her to the doctor and...
Tory: Chill out, I'm just messing with you, so how is she?
Samantha: Well, the doctor said she is stable, but her medicine is running out, we have to go to the pharmacy to buy more.
Tory: Leave it to me.
Samantha: Are you sure? I can go.
Tory: Okay, I've been doing this for a long time, but thanks anyway.
Tory went out to buy her mother's medicine, meanwhile Daniel and Amanda were talking in the kitchen.
Amanda: Really? Don't tell me.
Daniel: Well, if a few months ago I was told that Johnny Lawrence was about to get married, I wouldn't believe it either.
Amanda: I'm happy for them, but what about Kreese? you don't think he'd try anything to mess this up, do you?
Daniel: I don't know, that guy is capable of anything, Johnny told me they have a new student now, it looks like he was attacking Demetri.
Hearing that, Samantha goes to them, curious about what happened to Demetri.
Samantha: Wait, what?
Anthony: Yeah, I was at the mall when Kenny tried to attack me, so Demetri showed up to help me, but then another guy, a Korean guy, showed up, Demetri tried to fight him, but the dude took the soap and rubbed it in his eyes I don't know what would have happened to him if Johnny hadn't been there.
Hearing that, Samantha remembered how Tory reacted when Sensei Kim showed up at the dojo, she remembered when Kim said Tory would regret it, and since this new student was Korean, she sure had something to do with it, she couldn't let something bad happen to Tory.
Daniel: Samantha, where are you going?
Samantha: I'll be right back, I have something to do.
Meanwhile, Tory was going to the pharmacy to buy her mother's medicine, when she was in the park, another girl appeared, the girl was Asian and had long black hair, seeing Tory the girl went to talk to her.
Girl: Hey, are you Tory Nichols, the champion of the All Valley karate tournament?
Tory: Yeah, well, actually...
Girl: Never mind that, I love karate, and I've wanted to meet you since I arrived in the Valley, how about we have a friendly match?
Tory: Well, why not, I have a few minutes.
Girl: Thank you, but I'm warning you that I won't go easy on you.
Tory: Good, because I'm not going easy either.
Normally Tory wouldn't accept this kind of thing, but that girl seemed pretty friendly, and Tory also needed to train a lot for the Sekai Taikai, so she accepted, not knowing what awaited her.
Tory tried to strike first, but soon the other girl shows her speed, and hits Tory with a punch, Tory tried to counter, but the girl was quite aggressive, she forced Tory to get on defense, Tory then defends some of her punches and hits the girl with a kick, knocking her down.
The girl then stood up, but now the roles were reversed, now it was Tory who was attacking and forcing her to get on defense, but then the girl dodged Tory's attack, and grabbed her arm, knocking her to the ground.
Tory was surprised by this new girl's skill, she had never met any girl so good at karate (except Samantha, of course) so she praised the unknown girl's skill.
Tory: Wow, you're really good.
But then, the girl's attitude completely changed, she stopped being a sweet and kind girl, and revealed her true personality as well as her true identity.
Min: You little fool, my name is Min Yen Jin, student of Kim Da Eun.
Hearing that name, Tory froze completely, she believed that all her fears would disappear once she got out of Cobra Kai, but that was clearly not the case, Kim had found another way to torture Tory.
But she knew she wouldn't get out of this if she didn't fight, so Tory got up again, and as Min attacked she blocked the attacks, until Min hit Tory with a kick to the chest.
Min: You call that karate? It looks like you're trying to shoo mosquitoes away.
Saying that, Min goes towards Tory who was on the ground, struggling to get up, and steps on her.
Min: Master Kim was right, you have a tough facade, but deep down you're just a fragile little girl.
Min starts to laugh evilly, but without her realizing it, someone else hits her from behind, it was Samantha.
After taking down her opponent, Samantha heads towards Tory to check on her.
Samantha (helping Tory up): Are you okay?
Tory: I've been worse, thank you.
Samantha: Don't thank me just yet, look!
Min got up and went towards Samantha, but Samantha hit her with a kick to the chest, Tory then got up and went towards her opponent, Min tried to attack Tory, but Samantha got in front of her and blocked all attacks, Min tried to attack Samantha, but Samantha managed to get behind her opponent, so she and Tory hit Min with two kicks, one on each side, knocking her down again.
Samantha: Had enough?
Min realized that she couldn't beat the two of them together, so she withdrew, but before leaving, she turned to the two girls and said:
Min: We'll meet again, and next time you won't be so lucky.
After that she left, and Samantha and Tory started talking.
Tory: How did you know I was here?
Samantha: I followed you, when that crazy woman said you'd regret leaving Cobra Kai, and Anthony said Cobra Kai has new students, I was worried about you being alone, so I decided to check on you.
Tory: Well, thanks but... You didn't have to.
Samantha: I know, but that's what friends do, they care about each other.
Tory: Thanks again.
After that unexpected fight, Samantha and Tory went to the pharmacy to buy Tory's mother's medicine, and when they returned home they told everything that had happened, when they heard that Cobra Kai had another new student, Daniel, Johnny and even Chozen got worried, these two new students seemed to be more dangerous than anyone they had ever seen, so the three senseis came to a conclusion, they would need help, from someone who is also very dangerous, a real Bad Boy.
Wow, what a spoiler for the next chapter, isn't it? Exactly, karate's Bad Boy is about to return, in addition, in this chapter we also see a little bit of the style of the new champions of Cobra Kai, we can see that Yoon fights based on pure cheating, using objects, or hitting his opponents in weak points, while Min's style is very similar to Kim's, she takes pleasure in hurting her enemies, physically and mentally, but she also doesn't hesitate to use dishonorable techniques if things get complicated, and don't worry, we'll see more about these characters later in the story, but all in due time, apart from the return of Mike Barnes what do you think will happen? Find out IN THE NEXT CHAPTER.
