Chapter Eight: Lessons Learned

White belts, minds to be molded.

My very first class as a Cobra Kai Sensei.

They didn't look like much, but we'd see.

Wearing black Cobra Kai GIs contrasting strongly with white belts, everyone milled around the mats. Each student ranged from about twelve to as old as nineteen in some cases.

"I'll only say this once. When I speak, you pay attention."

And they instantly did.

"This. Is Charyot." I snapped my hands to my side. "This, is Kyung-Nae." I bowed. "Let's try it."

"Attention, charyot!"

Everyone slid their feet in and clapped their hands to their sides.

"Kyung-nae."

We bowed.

I could get used to this.

"Glory is overrated," I said. "In this dojo, all that matters is your skill. During my very first class, unlike yours. I didn't have a mat. I didn't have equipment, I didn't even have a uniform. I trained with Sensei Kreese in the old loading dock of an abandoned supermarket. And yet, through the way of the fist I became All Valley champion at fourteen."

I crossed my hands behind my back. "Unlike what some may think, Cobra Kai cannot make you invincible. But it will push you to test your limits in pursuit of it. You want to be a champion? You want strength? Good. Work for it. Get into your fighting stances."

White belts sucked. Not that it was their fault, all white belts did. The only reason why I didn't when I started was because I had already been trained prior.

Being a teenage guy wasn't fun. Mainly because of hormones, in the months leading up to my second title defense as All Valley Champion, Tory, and mainly her voluptuous body kept me distracted most of the time from training.

Now, I didn't have such a luxury, I didn't have a girlfriend anymore.

In fact since we broke up for good, Tory couldn't even look at me.

But luckily, I was still Luke 'The Flash' Schwarber, and until next summer I was still King of West Valley High.

Hawk and the others congratulated me on becoming a Cobra Kai Sensei, all that changed really was I wore a different uniform when I trained with everyone else, Sensei Silver was right.

Going to the beach, even training around pretty girls my age at the dojo led to the same bubbling in my head that began to build last summer that led me to seek Moon.

However, there was an aspect of what Sensei Silver taught that I greatly respect more than others.

Excess. Living to excess.

Time had passed, I had changed, the only girl in this town. Or girls, who wanted nothing to do with me right now were Aisha, Sam, Tory, and likely Charlotte since she and Robby casually began to go out as of late.

The rest were. Well, as Hawk put it, vultures in the sky.

I had two months of summer break remaining.

I enjoyed playing volleyball every day with the squad, the Rides, all of it. But I did want more, and, as a matter of fact, I knew what I want.

A taste of something I had gotten the night I became Cobra Kai's youngest and newest Sensei.

Her golden hair tied up in a bun wearing shorts and a t-shirt, Yasmine opened the front door to her house.

"Hey?" she said in confusion.

"Can we talk?" I put my hands in the pockets of my jacket.

We spoke in her room, it oddly hadn't changed very much since the last time I was here.

"I was wondering how everything was going. I left in a hurry and things got, weird. I'm sorry."

Yasmine took a moment to respond, sitting in a chair by her bed.

"I was upset yeah. Realized I was getting a little desperate for you."

"What an odd one eighty. I didn't think you still liked me after all this time, after everything that happened."

Yas crossed her arms. "Moon and I mostly blamed the summer vibes you know. And for dating, we knew you two wouldn't work so we brushed the whole thing under the rug."

"Just like that? Girls gossip behind each other's backs if they stole each other's eyeliner or something."

Yasmine slowly lowered her chin. "Watch it. No, we decided it wasn't fair to either of us to blame each other. Plus, if you get high with Moon once she'll forgive you over anything."

I chuckled. "Sounds like her for sure."

"She misses you." Yasmine cleared her throat. "I, I miss you too."

I frowned. "I'm really sorry about all that. Things have been confusing lately, and it wasn't fair to you to just. Screw in a closet and run off."

"Well I wanted to Luke, chill."

"No it wasn't that I just." I sighed, leaning against a desk in her room. "I'm sick of hurting people you know."

Yasmine sighed, standing up and walking over to me.

She wrapped her arms around my neck and spoke. "Do you remember the night you won your second All Valley?"

"Hard to forget it."

Yasmine laughed quietly at this.

"You were so upset with yourself over what happened with Robby. Everyone at your party was having the time of their lives. And you were sulking in your room, hating yourself. You don't hurt people because you're a bad person Luke, because you like it. You hurt them because life happens."

"I could've avoided so much of this. You, Tory, Moon, Robby, Miguel. All got hurt, because I was stupid."

Yas shook her head.

"Luke."

I looked at her.

"You don't deserve to hate yourself like this. Enjoy this summer, it's the last one before a highschool year we'll ever have."

"You think so?"

"I promise you. If shit happens, and the first thing you do is hate yourself. You'll end up making things even worse."

Yasmine kissed me.

We made out for a moment and then I heard her whisper in my ear.

"I want you."

"I never thought we'd be back where we started again."

She shrugged, pecking me on the cheek. "Me neither."

"I thought you didn't want to just mess around."

"Eh." Yasmine rubbed her hand around my bare chest. "You're Luke, Luke. I wonder if you ever realize just how much people want you. Plus that was a year ago. We've both changed."

"About that. You still making fun of Demetri and Aisha? I heard from the country club staff you weren't nice to Tory either lately."

Yasmine rubbed her tongue along her upper lip quickly. "So that's what this is about." she slipped out of her bed completely naked.

I ignored the incredible view of Yasmine's bare body from behind. "Well hey, it's not right to do stuff like that."

"It's not right to sleep with my best friend while chatting me up." she looked back at me.

"You know I regret all that." I sighed, leaving her bed to press myself behind her.

"Hey."

Yasmine squirmed slightly, I hugged her to me.

"Yas if senior year ends up being as messy as the last two. It'll suck for everyone, that's all I'm saying."

I pressed my lips to her shoulder, rubbing her large round rear and her hips.

"Doesn't that make sense?"

She giggled quietly. "Yeah, I guess it does."

I heard a moan escape Yasmine's lips. "It's kinda magic how you can do that."

"It's a trick I save for you," I muttered, kissing her neck now, hugging her tighter to me.

"I bet you tell all the girls that," Yasmine murmured, digging her fingers into my hair.

I kept kissing her neck and Yasmine muttered again. "If you leave any hickeys on my neck. I will kill you."

"Why's that?"

"I'm going out to meet with Sam and Moon later."

"Relationship troubles with Diaz?"

Yasmine shook her head. "That's not all we talk about you know. What do you talk about with the guys?"

"USA karate. New workouts to try. Basketball on occasion."

"See?"

"Sorry."

"Don't be." Yas pecked me on the lips. "Wanna, you know? Again?"

She didn't have to ask me twice.

Well after we were finished, Yasmine was resting on the large number of pillows between her massive bed and the headboard.

"Damn. Did all those old people at your dojo fill you with roids or something? The hell happened to your back?"

I chuckled. "Naw just been working out a ton lately."

"Mm, I approve." Yasmine passed her hand over my shoulder blades.

I stared off towards the other end of her room.

"Luke. Everything alright?"

"Um, no, I don't think so. I was hoping just for some comfort by being here, sorry if it sounds like I'm trying to use you right now. Things are just sorta crazy."

She rested her head on my bare shoulder. "Well, I'm here alright?"

We kissed.

I sighed. "Yeah I was just feeling sorta bad about everything. It's cool if you don't want to do this anymore."

"Dang you do not remember what to talk about in bed do you?"

"Not really."

"Well I'm fine with this." Yasmine muttered. "Feel free to come over as much as you need." she said hugging me.

I hugged her back.

Having sex with girls was nothing new, it's been over a year by this point. But I was happy to know Yasmine was here for me emotionally too.

I was curious if deep down she really was nice underneath it all.

Did the pain of losing me for a bit drive her back to being cruel?

While this bothered me, at the moment I didn't really care.

Samantha LaRusso remained the only girl I hadn't yet slept with who I considered hot in this town.

Yasmine had a great body, excellent hips, skin, ruby lips. She was lovely, although besides Moon who anyone with eyes would consider hot, I was wondering why blondes attracted me so much.

Yas nuzzled into me when we snuggled beneath her bedsheets.

This summer would make a fine addition to my collection.

A few days later I tried my luck with another person I wondered would be happy to build a quick love nest with me if she wanted.

One of the hottest girls at our school, I was properly reintroducing myself to the West Valley Highschool cheer team.

Moon opened her front door.

"Lucas?"

"Hi um. We ended things on bad terms, I was hoping to catch up."

"Is everything alright?"

I shook my head, looking right at her.

"Moon, I miss you. I miss, this."

She oddly didn't move when I reached out to touch her hair, to hold her close.

Moon seemed to gasp quietly when I held onto her shoulders and kissed.

"Did you miss it?"

Moon nodded quietly with our lips locked together, leading me inside her house with a quiet moan.

The sight of Moon's naked body laying next to me was a sight I was more than happy to see.

Her beautifully smooth and sun kissed skin, again shockingly without a trace of tan lines. Moon's hips had gotten wider, her breasts larger. She was already busty, but now even more so.

"You've gotten so much sexier Moon," I muttered against her neck. "I thought it wasn't possible."

"What got you in the mood to try this again?" she tilted her head at me. "I thought you already had a girlfriend."

"We took a break." I sighed. "Decided to use this summer to work out a little more. Focus on myself."

Moon chuckled. "Work out even more? Look at you. Are you on HGH or something?"

"Yas noticed that too."

That slipped out quicker than I meant it to.

Moon moved over to her bedroom mirror, fixing the only thing she was wearing, a hair tie. "I swear, seducing girls is like the only thing you're better at than karate."

"You're not upset?"

She shook her head. "No. Technically you never cheated on anyone, you never lied to anyone. We're all friends again, and that was all a while ago."

I slid behind her, hearing her groan when I rubbed her hips and tied my arms around her. "I missed you."

Moon spun around slightly, kissing me deeply.

"I missed you so much too Lulu." Moon whispered.

"Lulu." I scoffed. "Been ages since I've heard that."

"What happened to the headband?"

"I wasn't feeling it anymore. Plus, world karate federation tournaments don't allow you to wear them."

Moon brushed a lock of hair behind my ear. "You're becoming yourself. So much has changed since last summer."

"Moon I have to be honest here. I'm just looking for comfort, nothing else.."

"Then you came to the best place possible. Last time you were horny to the point of stress overload," Moon muttered with her hands on my bare shoulders. "Now it seems like you're hurting."

I looked away.

"Look." she met my lips with hers again, muttering. "It's okay."

"I hurt everyone, I-"

"You hurt me for a little bit. But it's okay, it seems to have hurt you too. And now you're hurting a lot now."

Moon sighed. "You can let yourself admit you feel pain Luke. It's how you heal."

Pain does not exist. At least, when I was with Moon, it didn't seem to anymore.

I looked at Moon from the top of her head to her chin. "I'm a Sensei at Cobra Kai now, can't let anyone know a break up hurt me. It'd look absurd."

"Don't worry about that now. Speaking of absurd, you want quickies and reruns of the Office in my living room? I'll make snacks."

"Sounds dope."

The sway of her bare hips and body leading me by the hand to her living room. Made me wonder why I ever walked away from this.

The next day after practice, I walked into Moon's house through the backyard, to avoid any awkwardness or confusion, I was assured her parents wouldn't be here like always.

"Hey Moon, I brought some take out."

I looked around her house. "Moon!?"

I walked towards her kitchen and dropped the Chinese food I was carrying right onto the kitchen island.

Moon and Yasmine were standing around Yas' kitchen island, wearing nothing but socks and stockings respectively, standing in front of a small cake that looked like it came fresh out of the oven.

I had seen both girls naked more times than I could count by now, that wasn't the thing. It was that I same them both together, at the same time.

"What is. Happening?" I managed to say.

"We agreed to casually keep this going all three of us for this summer!" Moon chirped.

I needed to sit down.

I did so and then asked. "What's the cake for?"

"To celebrate! We might as well avoid the mess from last time so we decided." Yasmine shrugged, brushing her hand along my hair. "Why ruin the friendship and trust again? Keep things above board."

I was utterly confused.

"Do you really want to date after everything? I sure don't, but I still like this though." Moon shrugged, poking my shoulder. "And we, like you. You like us back right?"

Was that even a question? At least for what these two wanted for sure.

"Can I try this cake?" Was my form of saying a very obvious yes.

"Sure." Yasmine slid a plate forward.

It tasted incredibly good. It was a simple chocolate cake with some white frosting.

I nodded slowly. "Okay, I have an idea."

Yasmine gasped in surprise, I had squished her and Moon together where they stood next to me, starting to eat the cake off both of them.

"Damn that's a little perverted don't ya think?" Yasmine laughed out, despite the fact that she was brushing her hand along my back and hair.

"I don't know. It's kinda working for me." Moon mumbled with a slight chuckle.

I couldn't get enough of these girls.

"Ho. Ly. Shit."

Was all I could say afterward.

We didn't even bother using blankets on Moon's couch. All I could do was bury my face into Yasmine's shoulder and laugh.

"What?" Moon asked from the other side of me.

"The fuck just happened?" I chuckled. "God."

"You okay?" Moon muttered.

"Better than okay, I'm perfect. I thought it couldn't get any better, and then a thought slipped my mind. Should've combined it all." I sighed.

"Mm." Yasmine pecked me on the lips. "My thoughts exactly."

"Hey I think I saw Sam's little brother checking us all out at the water park a few weeks back. You still keep in touch with him?" Moon asked.

"Eh. Sorta." I said. "Anthony's nice, but he's just a lot younger than me you know?"

"Not that much younger. He starts school with us in the fall." I remembered.

"Why didn't you introduce us?" Yasmine joked. "Could've made for." she turned over, brushing her hand through my hair with one finger. "A very fun bit of teasing."

"You guys were looking smoking in those bikinis. I couldn't say anything without looking like a creep. And I couldn't say anything to Anth because-"

"You already knew what was underneath them." Moon giggled, pecking me on the lips.

I kissed her back and looked over.

No wonder Moon was so down for this, Yasmine's body was on fire. Her long legs, flat stomach, and perfect skin.

"We should've done this from the beginning," Moon muttered.

"Well I was in France so." Yasmine sighed, picking up a glass of water from nearby to sip from it.

"So again. Remind me why you two are so okay with this?"

Moon shrugged. "Yas?"

"Um." She put the glass of water down, leaning back on the couch to blow some of her blonde hair out of her face. "Let's see. I missed you, specifically the sex. Not any of the nasty drama. So did Moon. And so did you right?"

"Yeah but." I laughed, standing up a little. "You two are best friends, this would be weird as hell."

"Not necessarily," Moon said. "I like girls too, and Yas has already slept with both you and a girl once before."

I sighed. "I'm just confused why you'd both be okay with sharing me though."

"Well we're not." Yasmine said with a shake of her head. "Again, dating is just a bad idea. This is what we should've done in the first place."

"No strings sex, all three of us?"

"Things got complicated when you got it into your head someone had to date someone." Moon said in a manner very much like her. "Free love means freedom."

"Plus, for crying out loud. You're Luke Luke." Yasmine added again.

I kissed Moon with a smile before my phone rang.

I picked it up as I stood up from the couch.

"Hello?"

"Mr. Schwarber. You have a moment?"

It was Sensei Silver. "Sure thing."

I looked back, Moon was experimentally pecking Yasmine on the lips.

"No?"

Yasmine shrugged. "Eh."

They kept practicing and trying it out while I forgot I was on the phone.

"Lucas."

"Uh, yes Sensei. I'm here."

"Do you have any plans for dinner tonight?"

I had to move away from the living room for a moment, looking back to see Yasmine yelp, both girls were starting to cavort behind me giggling on the couch.

"You could say that, er, yeah."

"Do you have plans or not Schwarber? It's a simple question."

I took a deep breath. "I'm free tonight yes."

The old man had to pick tonight.

"Oh good. I want to meet you at Canguini's over on 5th Avenue, wear something nice. Be there at 9 PM sharp."

"Yes, Sensei."

"Looking forward to it."

He cut the line as I walked back to the couch.

I slipped back inbetween both girls.

"Who was that?" asked Yasmine.

"The millionth old person to get in the way of my fun." I sighed, looking over at her. "Now, how were you two working it out?"

"Meh. I prefer you." Yasmine said.

Moon smiled. "I prefer both."

"Let's put it to the test then." I said as both of them quickly agreed.

Lucas walked into a very fancy Italian restaurant wearing the same fine suit he wore to Ali's wedding.

Silver was waiting for him and waved him over to his table.

"Where'd you find this place?" Lucas fixed his chair.

"Oh I, come here with John sometimes. Discuss the past, the future. Things I'd like to talk about with you."

A waiter appeared. "Are you gentlemen ready to order?"

"I'll have the steak souffle. Medium rare." Silver said.

"Can I have the chicken alfredo?"

"Try the veal, it's to die for."

Lucas shrugged, clearly ignoring the simplicity of the dish in such a restaurant with a chuckle. "I like alfredo."

"Excellent choice sirs. I'll be right back with your drinks."

Silver watched the waiter walk off before looking back at Lucas.

"I wanted to talk to you about your performance these past few weeks."

"Is there a problem Sensei?"

Silver shook his head, watching the small band playing some lounge music. "On the contrary. You've impressed me. Both your teaching and fighting is superb, considering how new you are at it in the former. I just had a question."

"Yes?"

"Is there anybody of significance in your class?"

Lucas shook his head. "No."

"No one at all?"

"They show no promise at all. I still think they can learn enough for self defense though."

"Why bother teaching the class then?"

Lucas nodded. "You said I was ready."

"But I never said you had to do it."

"I had to take a test, I had to prove myself."

"But I never said you had to train mediocre students." Silver said.

Lucas frowned.

"Be the Sensei you want to be. By leading the students, you want to see be yours."

"I can't pick and choose who comes through my doors. I'm a minor still, I can't tell adults to walk off."

Silver blinked. "Who said that? Me. Or you?"

Lucas was silent again.

"You can choose many things in your life." Silver said quietly. "Most of all, who you want to learn from you."

Lucas sighed. "But I don't choose my roster. You do, your assistant does."

Silver shrugged. "If only there was a way to fix that."

"Which is?"

"We'll discuss that later." Silver muttered. "For now I wanted to talk to you about the Sekai Taikai."

Lucas nodded. "Korea's a long way off."

"Our girls have been disappointing me. Nichols, Lee, Elswith, Goldstein. They're skilled, and they have heart. But in what world are they worse fighters than Robinson or LaRusso?"

"They're not."

Silver glanced at Lucas. "Then why did they lose?"

"I don't know."

"I thought you were a Sensei."

"I'm not an expert on how girls fight."

"But you're an expert on girls." Silver said. "Aren't you?"

Lucas frowned. "What do you know exactly?"

"That I personally don't care or know much at all in that regard. Just that you left us in a very precarious position. Lee shows promise, Sensei Da-Eun likes her."

"She doesn't seem to like anything."

Silver chuckled. "She likes Lee I promise you. But Nichols won't be on her A game so long as you teach and train at the Flagship dojo." he sighed. "And the day Elswith or Goldstein can win championships will never come. So. Sensei Schwarber, what do you suggest we do?"

Lucas was quiet for a moment.

"Find a way to let Tory and Devon train without me."

"An excellent idea." Silver sipped his scotch. "But your friends would rather die than miss class with you. Hawk, Mikey Miller, Rickenberger, both Payne brothers. They'd never train anywhere but with you."

"True."

"What do we do then?"

"Tricky I guess. In a way, I'd become their Sensei."

Silver smiled again. "Yet another excellent idea. I suppose both you and John could lead some classes from time to time."

A waiter muttered to Silver. "Your food will be out in just a moment."

"I have one more thing to say," he said. "And you have to answer me honestly."

Lucas nodded.

"Do you think Kenny will be a better fighter than you one day?"

"No."

Silver's eyes lit up. "No?" he was surprised.

"I don't think so. I know so." Lucas said. "He'll be way better than I ever was. I know it more than anything."

"Then why bother training him? Won't he be a rival? Won't people question your legacy, your skill, if someone from the same school as you outperformed you?"

"Why?" Lucas shrugged. "Kenny is my friend. He'll be my friend a decade from now. He'll never talk bad about me. He'll never say I was overrated, he'll never betray my trust. Let people talk."

"So you trust Kenny then?"

Lucas leaned forward in his seat. "Kenny isn't perfect. But deep down I know he's a great person, he's loyal and kind. He joined Cobra Kai to be a champion like I was. He'll be so much better than me one day people won't believe it. But Kenny would never forget why he joined the dojo."

Silver chuckled. "It's impressive."

"What is?"

"That despite how much you've mastered Cobra Kai karate on a physical level. You're only scratching the surface of its mental lessons. After dinner, we're going to take a walk. It's a place you know well, just down the street from here a few blocks away."

The lights to Lankershim and Magnolia's Cobra Kai dojo museum were turned on.

"Jesus." Lucas sighed. "What did they do to this place?"

The mat was still there, but it was clearly just a tourist trap.

"You want to change it?"

"I want to change everything."

Lucas walked along the edge of the mats.

"Sensei Kreese taught the very first students right over there. Taught me my first front sweep right here. I earned my black belt from Sensei Pat Johnson right there. Grandmaster Kim Sun-Yung would want no other place to teach the way of the fist."

Lucas smiled. "Than right here."

"So you like it?"

Lucas looked up at the roof of the Lankershim dojo. "I love it. I'd rather be here than anywhere else most days."

"Consider it home."

Lucas was confused. "Excuse me?"

Silver tossed a pair of keys that Lucas caught.

"It's time you and John showed you can build the perfect team. With my help of course, that you can teach the way of the fist as well as you've learned it." Silver said. "No more games Lucas. This is your home, and it always will be."

Lucas couldn't believe that the keys to Lankershim were sitting in his hand.

"I have one thing to tell you."

Silver placed a hand on Lucas' shoulder. Despite how tall the boy was, Silver still towered over him.

"I know you want a place where Robby Keene can train with you. So you can build this so called, team Lightning. Is that correct?"

Lucas frowned, nodding looking away from Silver.

"Hey."

Lucas looked up at his Sensei.

"It's nothing to be ashamed of. What makes Lankershim special were the boys who once trained here. I know what kept them together. Brotherhood, friendship."

Lucas listened.

"Let me tell you something about friends." said Silver. "You need to choose your friends carefully. There are friends who make you laugh, who support you, help you, help train with you."

Silver nodded slightly. "Who don't run off with their father when it suits them. Who don't betray you."

"The best friends you can possibly make are the ones that are useful to you. Do you understand that?"

"Yes Sensei."

"The greatest weakness one can have, the greatest failure. Is letting yourself be useful to your friends, not the other way around. Do you understand that?"

"Yes Sensei," Lucas repeated.

Silver turned around, rubbing his nose and then placing his hands on the wooden waiting area.

He looked back at Lucas. "I'm going to tell you something I've never told anybody. Something I knew was probably the case the day we met, right here, only a few months ago."

"Yes?"

"You were better to this dojo than John Kreese ever was."

"But. He's your best friend, he. He founded Cobra Kai right here."

Silver shook his head. "Don't you get it? Him and I are history. A few more decades and we'll just be a memory. But you? People remember the fighters, not the Senseis."

"Sensei Kreese is. He's." Lucas sighed. "Sensei Kreese is like-"

"The father you never had I know. But you have to face the facts. The only one who can properly lead this dojo after I'm gone. And John is gone. Is you."

"Me? Just me?"

Silver pointed to the picture of Kim Sun-Yung that hung by the entrance, right where it did since the 1980s.

"He's gone. I'll be gone. One day you'll be gone. But before that happens, you need to know the truth. Let me make this very clear Lucas. The only way Cobra Kai can ever fail now, isn't by losing a tournament, any tournament. It's not by having less or more dojos. It's by letting Robby Keene return."

"How so?"

Silver scoffed. "He's weak. His father is a failure and Robby lives solely within his shadow."

"Johnny's my stepfather."

"Your mother could do so much better than Johnny Lawrence and we both know it."

Lucas failed to agree or disagree.

"Robby's stronger than the vast majority of people."

"I didn't mean physically." Silver lifted both his hands slightly, pinching his fingers to his thumbs. "He will only drag you down. Robby might mean well, and so do you. But he's merciful, too much so."

Lucas looked away again and Silver spoke. "He doesn't have what it takes to win. Why? Because he doesn't listen to you. He doesn't do as you say."

"Why should he?"

"Why should he?" Silver laughed. "Look at you. You're a world champion. A Sensei of the greatest martial arts dojo to appear in the last century. And he's not. It's that simple."

Silver placed a hand on Lucas' shoulder again, they made eye contact.

"There are those in this world who know their place. Who knows who are weak, and who aren't. By proxy, that creates weakness and strength. Which are you?"

Lucas didn't answer.

"I suppose what you say doesn't matter. It only matters what you prove. Robby Keene truly becomes your friend again and you will have weakened yourself. He doesn't believe in the way of the fist. Victory in someone else's terms, is not victory at all."

"Yes Sensei."
