The day after the events of Terry Silver's defeat, Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang students were gathered at the dojo, Daniel and Johnny were also there, Chozen was resting at Daniel's house to recover from his injuries from the fight with Silver, and in addition to the old students, the as-yet-unnamed dojo counted with the new additions of Devon Lee and Tory Nichols who left Cobra Kai that night.

After everyone arrived at the dojo, Daniel started talking.

Daniel: Welcome everyone, before we start I would like to congratulate you all on the events of last night.

Johnny: We showed that old man who's boss, and now he's going to rot in jail, but now, let's talk business.

Daniel: As we know, after Silver's defeat, Cobra Kai is gone, and we don't have to worry about them anymore...

Suddenly Daniel sees someone raising their hand, and he is surprised to see that it is Tory.

Tory: Mr. Larusso, about this, I'm afraid we have bad news.

Daniel: What? what do you mean Tory?

Tory: Cobra Kai isn't over yet, there's still one more... Kreese...

Everyone was surprised to hear that, as everyone thought Kreese had died, after all, that's exactly what the cops said about him.

Tory: Let me tell you what happened...

Tory's Flashback

Last night, after the fight at the dojo and we finally defeated Silver, I came back home, I felt relieved that I wouldn't have to worry about all this anymore and could focus on my mom and brother, I went straight bed, but a few hours later I heard someone knocking on the door.

Tory goes to see who it was, and when she opens the door she is not happy to see her former sensei John Kreese.

Kreese: Nichols, we need to talk...

Tory: What are you doing here? I thought you were dead.

Kreese: No, I just faked my death, it was necessary to escape, how is your mother?

Tory: You don't have to pretend you care.

Kreese: That's not true, remember the All Valley tournament? Terry told you to cheat, he never cared about you, I did, I always cared about you Tory.

Tory: Funny way of showing, I tried to help you and you left me there to be tortured.

Kreese: What are you talking about?

Tory: Never mind, now get out of here, before I call the police,

Kreese: Alright...

Kreese leaves Tory's apartment, and he starts thinking about what Tory said, what did she mean by "being tortured"? Even though she didn't trust him anymore, the truth was that Kreese still wanted the best for her.

End of flashback

Daniel: What? So Kreese isn't dead, we have to call the police and...

Suddenly Daniel sees Tory's hand, he sees that her hand is bleeding, he wasn't sure if it was broken or just bruised, so he decides to ask her what happened.

Daniel: Oh my god Tory, what happened to your hand?

Tory: Don't worry about it, it was just a... training accident.

Daniel: Training accident? your hand is completely destroyed, we have to take you to the doctor now, Johnny, you take over the classes.

Daniel and Tory leave, Tory was a little reluctant, but Daniel was very insistent, and in his mind, he was pretty sure that Silver was the one who had done that to her.

Meanwhile, at the dojo:

Johnny: Well, so as Daniel was saying, we still have the Kreese problem, but we can deal with him, but we also know that many of you are starting your senior year of high school, and we will also have the Sekai Taikai in a few months, and we don't want you to feel obligated to compete, that being said, if anyone wants to leave, better leave now.

He waited for the students to answer, but none of them said they would give up.

Johnny: Great, I knew I hadn't trained a bunch of quitters, alright then, let's get started!

Meanwhile, Kreese arrived at the Cobra Kai dojo, he spent the night without sleep as he was hiding from the police and had nowhere to spend the night, upon arriving at the dojo he kicked in the door, hoping to confront Terry Silver.

Kreese: TERRY YOU SON OF A BITCH I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL...

But Silver wasn't there, on the contrary, Kreese saw someone he hadn't seen in a long time, someone he met when he went to Korea to learn the way of the fist from his master Kim Sun Yang.

Kreese: Sensei Kim Da Eun.

They were both happy to see each other, and Kim bowed respectifully to Kreese, and Kreese did the same.

Kim: Sensei Kreese, it's good to see you again.

Kreese: Well I say the same but where's Silver?

Kim: So you didn't know? He failed, he allowed our enemies to invade the dojo, and his house, he was defeated by Daniel Larusso and sent to prison.

Kreese smiled upon hearing that Silver was in prison.

Kreese: Well, at least we have good news, one less enemy, now I can take care of the other.

Kim: When Silver brought me here I asked about you, and he told me you were having legal problems, what did he mean by that?

Kreese: Allow me to explain...

Kreese then told Kim everything that had happened, from him calling Silver for help, to his escape from prison after Silver betrayed him.

Kim: What a disappointment, so he wanted to take control of Cobra Kai, but he wasn't strong enough to beat you in a fight, so he did that, pathetic, no wonder he lost so badly to Larusso yesterday.

Kreese: Well, at least now we don't have to worry about him anymore, but what about you? What are you doing in America?

Kim: Silver brought me here, he promised me he would help spread my grandfather's fighting style around the world, he even asked me to bring the best senseis from my dojang, but clearly that was a big waste of time, I can't keep them here so they're going home today, and I don't have any reason to stay here either, so I'm leaving too.

Kreese: Wait, it's not over yet, there's still a chance for us to spread your grandfather's legacy around the world, we still have the Sekai Taikai.

Kim: How do you know about the Sekai Taikai?

Kreese: Being locked up in a cell doesn't stop me from knowing every single thing that goes through Silver's mind.

Kim: Well, that's true, but how are we going to participate in the tournament if we don't even have students?

Kreese: Leave it to me.

And so, Cobra Kai was back, a new alliance between two old friends, but they still needed students, so Kreese went to talk to some of his former students who left the dojo after finding out the truth about Silver, he managed to recruit some students, among them Kyler, Piper (who had come back from vacation that same day, so she didn't know what had happened to Silver) and also that girl who faced Tory in season 3 (I don't know what her name is ), and thus, the training began.

Some time later, the doctor had finished examining Tory's hand, he put bandages on her hand and said.

Doctor: There, your hand should fully recover in a week, until then I suggest you use it as little as possible.

Tory: Okay, thanks doctor.

Tory leaves the clinic and Daniel is waiting for her.

Tory: Mr. Larusso, I... Thank you for everything you're doing for me.

Daniel: You don't have to thank me, it was the least I could do.

Tory: No, seriously, your family has been helping me a lot lately, even after everything I've done to Samantha, why are you guys doing this, I mean, since you met me I've done nothing but cause pain and suffering to your daughter, why are you helping me?

Daniel: Tory, you and Samantha had issues, but that's in the past, if Johnny and I can put our feud aside, so can you.

Tory: Well I'll do my best, with everything going on right now, with my mom, my brother, the tournament and Kreese, Samantha is the least of my worries.

Daniel: Great, and know that you're welcome to train with us whenever you want.

Tory felt good talking to Daniel, after all, even after everything she'd done to his family, some things she regretted herself, he was still willing to help her, so she decided to open up to him about her life.

Tory: Thanks, but as for karate... actually I'm still a little undecided, I mean, I know this tournament is my best chance, but... After the fight at school, I thought about giving up on karate, but Kreese said he would pay my bills if I went back to the dojo, when he got arrested Silver took the job of paying my bills, just to keep me in Cobra Kai, but now... I guess I have to focus on my mom and my brother, so I thought about dropping out of school and getting a second job to get more money...

Daniel: No Tory, trust me, dropping out of school is a bad idea, whatever happens, if you need help, you can talk to us.

Tory: Okay, thanks again.

Tory was really having a hard time, in fact, a few days ago the landlord came to collect the rent as usual, and since she no longer had the financial support of Kreese or Silver, she couldn't afford to pay, and so, like the other time, he said she could pay... In another way, if you know what I mean, then he said they should meet that night, so she could pay, one way or another.

Meanwhile, Kreese went to Kenny's house, he knocked on the door, and Kenny answered.

Kenny: Sensei Kreese, what do you want?

Kreese: I heard about Silver, and I just wanted to let you know that I'm reopening Cobra Kai, if you want to come back...

Kenny: I don't know, I'll think about it.

Kreese: Great, if you decide to come back, you know where to find me.

That night, Kreese returned to Cobra Kai, and was talking to Kim.

Kreese: I spoke to Mr. Payne, but he's not sure if he's coming back or not.

Kim: Even if he does come back, I still don't know if he can win the male division, and there's still the female division, Elswith and that other girl aren't bad, but they don't stand a chance in the Sekai Taikai.

Kreese: I know, after the Silver thing we lost our best students... (he said, still sad that he screwed up with Tory)

Kim: Yes, they stole our best students, even if we win the sensei division the odds are not in our favor.

It was then that Kreese had an idea.

Kreese: Well... You must have great students at your dojang in Korea, Am I right?

Kim: As a matter of fact I do, but since Silver was arrested, we've lost his financial support, and I don't have the money to bring all my students here.

Kreese: We don't need all the students, we just need two.

The next morning, at the Larusso house, someone knocked on the door, and Daniel answered, he was surprised to see who it was, it was Tory, and she was accompanied by a little blond boy and also a woman in a wheelchair.

Tory: Mr. Larusso, I... I hate to ask you this, but... I need a favor.

Daniel asked them to come in so Tory could explain further, and as they heard Daniel talking to other people, Amanda, Samantha, Anthony, and Chozen came as well.

Chozen: Daniel-San, what's...

Tory recognized Chozen as soon as she saw him, she remembered him from the time he tried to infiltrate Cobra Kai, and even though they only met for a short time, Chozen was important to her, after all, the reason she admitted the truth about the All Valley tournament, it was also because of his lesson.

Tory: Sensei Joe, is that you?

Chozen: Hai, but that was just a disguise, my real name is Chozen Toguchi.

Tory: Well, I wanted to thank you for the lesson you gave me at Cobra Kai, it was thanks to that that I revealed the truth about Silver.

Chozen: Well, what can I say? I was just doing my job as a sensei.

Daniel: Wait Chozen, what are you doing here? Remember what the doctor said, you have to rest.

Chozen: Daniel-San, how many times do I have to say that it's just a flesh wound?

Daniel: Just a flesh wound? You were sliced by a katana two days ago, you have to rest.

Chozen returns to the room and they continue talking.

Tory: Well, as I was saying, I couldn't pay the rent, so we got evicted, so... I'd need help paying for a hotel room for a few days until...

Daniel: No, don't give me that "hotel room" thing, you can stay here.

Tory and Samantha: What?

Both were shocked, as even though they are now able to stay in the same place without trying to kill each other, it doesn't mean they were friends, let alone that they wanted to live together.

Tory: No, we can't accept that...

Amanda: We insist, it will be our pleasure.

Daniel: That's right, Brandon can share a room with Anthony, your mom can stay in the guest room, and you and Samantha...

Tory: No, no problem, I can sleep on the couch.

Okay, living together is tolerable, now, sharing a room is too much.

Daniel: All right, as you see fit.


That's right folks, Cobra Kai is back! I know you guys were waiting for my secret project that I said I would need Amanda's maiden name, but after watching season 5 I tought, "No, first I'm going to have to do my version of season 6", so get ready for more fights, more jokes, more Kyler getting his ass kicked, and of course the Sekai Taikai at the end.

About that chapter, yes, now Tory and Samantha will live together for a while, but their rivalry will be completely buried in the next chapter, moreover, Kreese and Kim Da Eun have teamed up to defeat their enemies once and for all, and we know that they will use every dirty trick they know to win the big tournament, what do you think will happen? Find out IN THE NEXT CHAPTER.
